Chapter 78: 78. No. 717

next morning.

The second legion mission has officially started.

The team of steam locomotives left the Legion Fortress and walked on the road among the ruins.

The body shakes from side to side.

Li Nuo's body swayed slightly.

He turned his head and looked at the rear window, sighing silently in his heart.

The past few days of vacation have been really tiring.

She went to the medical department for several consecutive days to clean up her face, but last night she had to coax Su Li to sleep as soon as possible.

Even though Su Li pouted so much that she could hang a bottle of oil, Li Nuo did not cross the bottom line at all. It was already late at night when he returned to the camp last night.

To be honest, the concept of men and women in this world is quite weird.

Both conservative and unrestrained.

If two people don't see eye to eye, it's all in vain.

But if they hit it off, the cooking of raw rice and cooked rice would have happened on the night when the relationship was confirmed.

It was as if the feelings and desires that had been suppressed for a long time suddenly found an outlet, strong and uncontrollable. This may be because the spiritual world is relatively poor and the psychological needs cannot be met for a long time.

The original owner's parents were like this, and so were the couples the original owner knew.

Li Nuo sat in the car and thought about it. He didn't even take the beauties that were delivered to him. It's hard to say whether it was because of his amazing self-control, or because he was not as good as a beast.

The steam locomotive drifted away, and the legion fortress turned into a shadow, standing at the end of the sky.

Li Nuo looked away from the car window.

"Why, are you thinking about Su Li?" Sergeant Mars said with a smile as he wiped the gun oil slowly.

Li Nuo nodded slightly:

"Yeah, I hope you can come back safely this time, sir, your hair has recovered?"

"Well, yes. Sergeant Alvin brought the life potion last night. After we drank it, the overdrawn life force was replenished. I have already exchanged the potion for Private Coben and the others into New Sauron Coins. Merlin will help I sent them to their families."

Thinking of the teammates who died in the last mission of the Legion, Sergeant Mars looked dark, but he will recover soon. I can't tell whether I have become accustomed to it, or I have gained a tough heart through this pain.

He glanced at the people in the carriage, cleared his throat, and said:

"Okay, guys. You all got to know each other the other day, and I'll repeat it here in case you don't remember the names.

"I'm Lurena Mars, the commander of the reconnaissance team. Corporal Micah, sitting on the left, is the deputy captain of the team. When I'm away, he will command the team."

Corporal Micah's leg is back. After a 10-day holiday, he is now fully recovered. The medical level of the Tatis Empire is really not covered, it is really cowhide.

"Seating to my right is Private Jarvis. If Corporal Micah and I leave the unit, you'll be at his command."

Li Nuo proved his worth in the last mission. Colabo's Legion is a special agent and tacitly allows him to act as a second-class soldier. Of course, it is still a "criminal soldier" in the archives.

The other soldiers in Alvin's army didn't know much about Li Nuo's specific situation.

They only know that Li Nuo has now been converted from a criminal soldier to a second-class soldier, and they don't know the deep-seated reasons. They only think that Li Nuo has completed three legion missions before becoming a regular soldier.

Sergeant Mars glanced at the Sanming soldiers on the opposite side, and announced their names one by one:

"Private Ike, Harman, and Ian, your mission is to obey orders and not act without authorization."

"Yes, sir." The three new recruits responded in unison. They were all recruits who had just graduated from the military academy.

This time, the mission of the legion is to guard the frontline camp. In many cases, there is no need to confront the enemy head-on, which is quite suitable for training recruits.

In the words of Mars:

It is far easier to help Thrrey's army than Alvin's army to clean up a tomb alone.

Because the strength of Thurley's army is too strong.

Lieutenant Thurley had three ensigns under him.

Each second lieutenant has three sergeants under him.

There are a total of nine sergeants, each of whom leads a squadron with more than 270 people.

The size of Alvin's army was barely equal to the smallest squadron under Lieutenant Thorey.

Judging from the current situation, this legion mission is basically the same as "the boss brings a cute new quick copy".

The only thing that makes people feel bad is the unknown undead units that have appeared recently.

Rumors about this kind of undead have spread in the Legion Fortress.

The disastrous scene of disembowelling and rotten internal organs is very frightening.

Fortunately, during Li Nuo's vacation, MI3 was not idle. They have already researched some ways.

"Guys, listen to what I have to say next."

Sergeant Mars took out a document, handed it to his team members to circulate, and said at the same time:

"The destination of our legion mission this time is Tomb No. 717. That place is some distance away from the tomb where the riot occurred, and the possibility of unknown undead troops appearing is relatively small."

Sergeant Marrs paused:

"But that doesn't mean we can relax our vigilance. What I'm showing you now is the latest research results from MI3."

Li Nuo glanced at the information on the manuscript, and frowned slightly, all because MI3's research results were very limited.

"The imperial soldiers who died in battle all have the following characteristics: the wounds are neat, the internal organs are crushed, other parts of the body are not obviously damaged, and there is no toxin in the blood and muscles."

Sergeant Marrs snapped his fingers and said:

"Based on these clues, MI3 conducted a large number of simulation experiments, and finally came to a conclusion. The unknown undead creature is short in size, no more than one meter two in height, flat and thin, fast and silent, and uses a sharp knife as a weapon.

"As for the crushed internal organs, MI3 speculates that this unknown undead creature has a habit of sucking internal organs. Their mouths should be straw-shaped, and they can only inhale liquid food, but cannot chew food, so the internal organs are crushed Slurry instead of swallowing.

"MI3 temporarily named this undead creature "Dead Ripper". "

The three recruits swallowed their saliva. They are somewhat intimidated by the brutal methods and disgusting proclivities of the Undead Ripper.

Sergeant Mars exhorted solemnly:

"MI3's advice is not to break away from the team and act alone. Because so far, all the sergeants who have seen the Undead Eviscerator have died in battle, and there are no surviving witnesses. Those who died in action were alone when they were attacked Action. This shows that the individual strength of the Undead Ripper is not strong, and he can only pick out the single ones. If you encounter it, you must sound the alarm as soon as possible, understand?"

"Yes, sir." Everyone nodded in response.

"Okay, the most urgent thing is over, the next thing is some common sense."

Sergeant Mars took back the manuscript, put it close to his body, and chatted with his teammates about the information about tomb No. 717.

This is a medium-sized catacomb with five floors below the ground.

Its underground layout is quite special.

The ground floor to the third floor are connected and can be accessed directly by stairs.

However, there is a naturally formed underground river between the third and fourth underground floors. The army had to cross the river before they could reach the entrance to the fourth underground floor on the opposite bank.

The fourth basement and the fifth basement are connected, and there are stairwells to walk through.

The Threy army will set up the front camp next to the underground river.

The first task of Alvin's army is to guard the temporary bridge across the underground river.

This is not an easy job.

Sergeant Marrs paused for half a second, and said in a deep voice:

"Guys, I have to warn you."

Everyone listened carefully.

"That underground river is the canal inside the Necromancer Sect. If we are unlucky, we may encounter the underground fleet of the Necromancer Sect."

Li Nuo raised his brows.

He originally thought that the underground river was several meters wide at the top, but only now did he realize that it was an extraordinarily wide river.

If it can accommodate the fleet, the river must be at least twenty meters wide, right?

Corporal Mika on the side couldn't help asking:

"Sir, the Necromancers still have a fleet? What do they need to transport by boat? Corpses? Bones? Or stone bricks for building dead buildings?"

Sergeant Mars nodded slightly:

"Well, you guessed it right, Micah. Generally speaking, the undead fleets we can encounter on the underground river are cargo ships carrying supplies. There are only dirty things like carrion and bones on board. , the guarding force is not strong. But it is not absolute."

Sergeant Marrs said quietly:

"If our luck is really bad, then the trickiest situation will arise."

He raised a finger and emphasized his tone:

"The order fleet, this kind of fleet is the most dangerous existence among many fleets. The order is an armed force in the Necromancer sect, consisting of at least one middle-level priest, three low-level priests, and a dozen dead There are still a large number of undead creatures on board. If we encounter a fleet of this level, we can only retreat temporarily. This is the order of Lieutenant Serley."

There was a sound of breathing.

The three recruits pursed their lips tightly, clutching the firearms in their hands, their fingertips turned white.

Corporal Mika frowned and looked at his thigh, as if he saw the tragedy of his broken leg again.

No wonder they were taken aback, it was because what Mars said was amazing.

The strength of a mid-level necromancer corresponds to a third-level Extraordinary in the human group.

A low-level necromancer corresponds to a second-level Extraordinary.

Undead monks are existences that can be transformed into middle-level undead units, corresponding to first-level Extraordinary.

In tomb No. 1079, the assassin who disguised himself as criminal soldier No. 039 was transformed into a necromancer monk by a mid-level necromancer priest, and only then did he master the extraordinary ability to transform into a crypt evil spider.

The religious order composed of necromancer priests, necromantic monks, and undead soldiers is equivalent to the army of the human kingdom.

As long as it is a necromancer order, there must be a middle-level necromancer priest, that is, a third-level extraordinary person of the necromancer sect, which is a level higher than the second-level "Imperial Fist" of Lieutenant Seri, So retreating immediately is the wisest choice.

Facing the news, Li Nuo remained calm.

The "Order of the Necromancers" mentioned by Sergeant Mars had appeared in the books in the reading room.

When Li Nuo was vaccinated with the enhanced medicine in the medical department, he had read these contents, and he was already prepared in his heart.

"Okay, guys. These are the common sense you must know. Encountering the Necromancer Order is the most extreme situation. In our legion, there may not be a few troops that can see the Necromancer Order throughout the year." Figure. We should not be so unlucky."

Sergeant Myers clapped his hands, ending the subject.

Li Nuo looked at him, and the corners of his mouth twitched slightly - the other party's words were like setting up a flag, which really made people feel uncomfortable.

The wheels turned and the body heaved.

The steam train drove over the potholed road, leaving a long twisting steam snake.

Soldiers walked towards their own fate, or their own grave, amidst the gurgling sound of the steam boiler.

Tomb No. 717 has arrived.

It is located in the ruins of a pile of rocks, and the terrain is relatively low-lying.

Like tomb 1079, tomb 717 also has an imposing door.

The tall stone arches are covered with traces of wind erosion, exuding an ancient and dead atmosphere.

Facing this historic building again, Li Nuo behaved much more calmly than when he walked into tomb No. 1079.

He combined the scene of the tomb he saw with the ancient history in his mind, and deduced a lot of information.

In the hall on the first floor of the tomb, there are 16 tall round stone pillars.

There are wavy vertical lines on the surface of the stone pillars.

Although the reliefs on the walls have been artificially destroyed, it is difficult to hide the grand celebration scenes and finely crafted textures, which are grand and realistic at the same time.

Stone pillars of this style and reliefs of this style are generally seen in the middle of the ancient dynasty.

Corresponds to the reign of Tamsin IV to Tamsin XII.

This was the most prosperous stage of the ancient Tatis dynasty.

In addition, under the 16 stone pillars, each has a stairwell entrance, leading to the secluded underground floor.

The number of stairwells alone is four times that of tomb No. 1079. It is conceivable how complicated the condition of the tomb passages in tomb No. 717 is.

Summarizing the information obtained through observation, Li Nuo initially came to a conclusion:

Tomb No. 717 should be the mausoleum of an ancient marquis. The exact name of the owner of the tomb is unknown.

So, why is this mausoleum eroded by necromantic sects?

Li Nuo had no way of knowing.

This kind of knowledge is not taught in the classroom of ancient history, and it is the content that City College deliberately hides.

"Ready? Guys."

Sergeant Mars stood in front of the team members with a suppressed short-barreled rifle on his back:

"We are responsible for reconnaissance of the situation in the stairwell No. 16. The goal of the mission is to find out the condition of the tomb at the end of the stairwell and estimate the number of undead there. In this reconnaissance mission, we will act together with the Zener team of Alvin's army. They're scouting teams, just like us."

Li Nuo looked to the side, and the Zener team was there.

There are 8 people on the other side, and the number of members is two more than that of the Mars team.

The death assassin who disguised himself as Criminal Soldier No. 039 belonged to Zener's team.

MI2 has suspended the work of reviewing criminal soldiers, and there are no criminal soldiers in this mission.

The task of standing in the front row to attract the undead fell on the regular imperial soldiers.

The privates each swallowed three biochemical baits, and jointly took on the job of attracting the enemy.

Sergeant Myers checked the green lump on the recruit's arm and exchanged glances with Sergeant Zener.

Together they waved the order to move forward.

Zener's team with a larger number of members walked in front, and Mars' team was in the rear.

Li Nuo was caught in the middle of the team and followed Sergeant Marrs through the door opening and into the dark stairwell.

The door of the closed stairwell was opened, and a gust of wind blew up from below, with the sour smell of poisonous mist and thick water vapor.

On Li Nuo's breathing mask, there was an extra layer of mist covering the eye glass.

Sergeant Marrs wiped the glass, the water glistened on his finger, and a few drops of water hung on it.

He and Sergeant Zener, who was walking in front, looked at each other, and both saw each other's surprise.

The underground river is located in the area below the third floor, and the vertical distance from the ground is 80 meters away.

Between the ground and the three underground floors, there are long stairs, three floors of intricate tomb passages and heavy metal gates.

In this case, how can there be water vapor to the ground?

And the water vapor is so thick, as if the water surface of the underground river is close at hand.

Li Nuo couldn't help but his heart sank slightly, he understood why Mars looked suspicious.

The situation on the basement floor may be unexpected.

PS: The battle process in tomb No. 717 will be greatly simplified, and it will directly enter the main plot where the hero leaves the junction of suffering.
