Chapter 253
The enemy came prepared, and the situation in the rear was unclear. The scale of this action was too large, and things might not be that simple.
Achilles also knew that something must have happened in the rear, and there was no time to tangle with the Frost King and the Styx.
The two were preparing to target Achilles, and they must have a backup plan.
The point was that the ability displayed by the Frost King was too strange, and Achilles had never seen such a method.
It was neither magic nor energy in any sense, but a direct call to the rules and the origin.
It touched the root of everything, which Achilles had experienced before.
And the undead over there was not the body of the Styx, so his so-called uncle was naturally not an ordinary hider.
Unless he was sure, he would not show up in person.
Speaking of his uncle, Zorn Musa, his name was not the Styx, and the origin of this name was also very ancient.
That was forty years ago, when the Aaron Empire was unprecedentedly strong, and that kind of strength was not built on a certain person.
Because Achilles was only an eleven-year-old child at that time.
At that time, Zon Musa and Achilles' father were the commanders of the Black and Red Cavalry of the Empire respectively.
In the same year, the royal family of the Woma Empire declared war on Aaron unilaterally, and the decisive battle took place in the Styx.
That battle was known as the Styx Battle, which lasted for two years. The situation gradually changed from the Aaron Empire's comprehensive crushing of the Woma Empire at the beginning.
The front line was defeated, and the Woma Empire counterattacked the Aaron Empire!
Achilles' father unfortunately died in one of the battles, and the culprit of all this came from a man named Owonaka.
That man was a member of the royal family of the Woma Empire at that time. He had an extraordinary talent for magic and became a pseudo-legendary magician at the age of thirty.
This man is one of the four strongest people in the world today, the father of Ms. Red Duke.
He single-handedly flattened the front line of the Aaron Empire's army in the Styx!
Achilles didn't know the process of that battle clearly. He only remembered that in the end it was his uncle Zon Musa who led the Black Cavalry to push the front line back.
He even killed the pseudo-legendary magician!
Zoan Musa became famous in one battle, because the battle took place in the Styx. In order to commemorate his great achievements, the old king awarded Zoan Musa the Styx and promoted him to Duke.
Therefore, people began to call him the Duke of the Styx or the Commander of the Styx.
Unfortunately, he failed to keep this glory and honor.
Four years later, all his taboo experiments and research were dug out, and the truth of that year also surfaced.
It turned out that Zoan Musa had been conducting research on the School of Necromancer and had achieved amazing results!
The reason why he won the battle of the Styx that year was that he turned all the dead into undead!
This also explains why there were no prisoners in that battle, and all those who knew about it were executed on the spot.
Those who survived were all the confidants of the Styx.
Perhaps this is nothing, at most it was a little shady means to win the war.
But Aaron is a country with a dual parliamentary system, and the power of the church is greater than that of the king!
The church strictly prohibits all research on the School of Necromancer. Any knowledge that touches on the School of Necromancer will be immediately eliminated once discovered!
All relevant persons will be executed in secret, and then they will use mithril and holy water to dissolve the bones.
This is to prevent necromancers from resurrecting these people or talking to them with the dead.
Because although they are dead, their knowledge is still there, and holy water and mithril can make the necromancy ineffective.
Apart from the church, all countries also hate the doctrine of necromancy.
This has been going on since ancient times, and it stems from the fear and hatred that was engraved into the instinct during the"Broken War"!
This alone is enough to make the Styx suffer the wrath of the whole world!
Even the old king at that time acquiesced to the church's decision to execute the Styx.
Although he had wanted to kill the Styx for a long time, he had never had a reasonable excuse.
And the reason why he wanted to kill the Styx was more complicated. The Styx was very ambitious. His territory and the legions under his command expanded year by year. He formed factions in the kingdom and often coerced and induced various dukes and nobles to cooperate with him.
It seems that he is ready to rebel at any time. If he doesn't get rid of him, the old king will not be able to sleep or eat.
So, who leaked the fact that Styx was studying necromancy?
The answer is very clear, it was Achilles.
He did so at the time out of self-protection.
Because Styx planned to refine him into a new type of undead, a kind of undead creature called abomination.
When he learned the truth, he did not rush to expose Styx, but took the initiative to cooperate with Styx's experiments.
He did not expose Styx's experiments until he completely gained Styx's trust.
The situation at that time was really like walking on a tightrope. He would definitely not be able to escape from Styx's territory by himself.
The only way is to gain Styx's trust, be careful at every step, and slowly wait for an opportunity.
Needless to say, Achilles sacrificed his relatives for the sake of justice, was appreciated by the church, and became the youngest apprentice of the temple.
……
Achilles thrust his sword into the ground, and a loud roar resounded on the ground!
A huge holy light barrier was opened, directly isolating the Frost King and his group of corpses!
The undead next to the Frost King saw this and made a crunching sound on the bones."Damn it, I almost forgot... Although my nephew looks quite dull, he has been playing tricks on me since he was a child!"
Looking in front of me The huge light curtain appeared, and the Frost King had a strange look on his face.
What does it mean?
Barrier?
The undead reached out and grabbed the reins of the skeleton horse, turned around and walked away.
He said something, but the Frost King couldn't understand it until the White Walker on the side relayed it,"He said there was no need to chase anymore, Achilles abandoned the sword and ran away."
Abandoned the sword?
The Frost King looked at the White Walkers on the side, his eyes indicating the huge wall of light in front of him.
The strange ghost instantly understood what the Frost King meant, and quickly directed the younger brother on the side to start rushing towards the light curtain.
The result was just like the invisible barrier around Achilles, no matter how hard they tried, they couldn't break it open.
And Achilles' holy sword was stuck on the ground, constantly releasing waves of brilliance outwards.
"In other words, he stuck the holy sword here as a barrier to stop us, and then ran away on horseback?"
"So what if we break the barrier and take away the holy sword?"
The Frost King threw this question to Styx, but Styx sneered.
"If you have the ability, go get it."
Listening to his tone, are you afraid that the holy sword will explode if you take it?
It's hard to say. King Frost roughly estimated the position of the light curtain. It spreads upward endlessly and is also very wide on the left and right.
It's also a bit troublesome to see the end.
But it's also There was no other way but to find a way around it.
Just as Frost King was thinking this, the space in front of him suddenly distorted!
A figure appeared out of thin air and came directly in front of Frost King!
"good evening∽"
"Oh, is it only daytime here?"
The visitor had a strange smile and held two throwing knives in his hands.
This was an old acquaintance of the Frost King.
"Was it that adult who sent you here, or Qin Leng?"
