Chapter 383: Ready
Chapter 383 Ready
Green agreed to Silabel's request and directly summoned the ghost of General James from the cemetery.
After this period of adaptation, General James has recovered most of his memory, but his way of thinking after turning into an undead is different from the past. Even if he recovers all his memories, he is no longer the original him.
Seeing Silabel, General James subconsciously stood up, but he didn't call himself a subordinate anymore.
Silabel looked at the subordinate in front of him who had been with him for nearly ten years, but now he has become a translucent ghost, and his heart was full of mixed feelings.
And inexplicably, Silabel, who has always been determined and determined, suddenly felt a kind of sadness. This time General James died, maybe next time it will be her, or someone she cares about.
Silabel gritted her teeth imperceptibly, suppressed the messy thoughts, and said in a leisurely manner: "James, I already know your situation, and now I give you a chance to choose, you can choose to live as a lich, or Embrace death, meet the end, and tell me your choice."
The ghost of General James was stunned for a while, but he didn't expect that he still had the right to choose, and he fell into deep thought for a while. He looked at Green and looked at Silabel, and with some sluggish thinking, he tried his best to consider the pros and cons of the two options, and questioned his heart, which one should he choose?
About ten minutes later, the entire office fell into silence.
Neither Green nor Silabel meant to urge General James.
Finally, General James's swaying mood was firmed, he bowed to Silabel: "Thank you for your care, but I have already died once. Since I was lucky enough to be an undead, I can continue to survive, and it is also an opportunity. I don't plan to give up, please. The adults are complete."
Sillabell nodded, she was not happy or disappointed, no matter which one General James chose, there was no difference for her, she just hoped that James would make his own decision for the last time.
"Well, since this is your choice." Silabel nodded, then looked at Green: "Then please take care of him in the future, and I will order someone to take his body."
After saying that, Silabel tapped the bell on the desk, and soon there was a knock on the door.
Silabel directly ordered: "Go and move the remains of General James to my office."
The secretary outside the door was stunned for a moment, but did not dare to question Silabel's order, and immediately responded and trotted down.
About ten minutes later, the door of the office was knocked again, and Silabel's secretary led two soldiers carrying stretchers in from outside.
The stretcher was covered with a white sheet, covering the remains of General James.
The two soldiers put down the stretcher and quickly withdrew. Together with the secretary, they were also waved back by Silabel. There were only two people and a ghost left in the office. General James looked at the corpse on the stretcher and couldn't tell what his mood was. He could feel that it was his corpse, and even if it was covered with a list, he could still produce a bloodline. connected induction.
General James controlled the psionic power and lifted the white sheet covering the corpse, revealing the corpse below.
The remains of the corpse have been sorted out and put on a brand new military uniform. General James closed his eyes and put on make-up on his face. It did not look like a corpse, but rather fell asleep.
The ghost of General James looked at his corpse silently for a long time, and then looked up at Green. He was a little at a loss as to what to do next.
Green was familiar with the road, so he didn't hide it at all. In front of Silabel, he launched [Death Infection] to undead the body of General James, and then fused his body with the ghost, thus transforming it into a lich...
Converting a Lich is not an overnight process.
Green completed his work. Next, he only needs to wait for the fusion of General James' soul and body. The undead soul and the undead body are combined, and he is naturally a lich.
For three full hours, General James' soul was thrown into his body, and a stream of undead energy immediately spilled out, condensed around him, slowly formed a cocoon, and was reabsorbed...
It doesn't even require Green's extra input of psionic energy. General James has successfully transformed into a lich. When he absorbed the last trace of death psionic energy from his body, his fingers under the military uniform suddenly moved, and then he opened his eyes and his pupils slowly contracted. , then stiffly got up from the ground and looked around, and finally his eyes fell on Green's body, he knelt down with difficulty, and made a hoarse voice: "Great master..."
Silabel's eyes narrowed, and she looked at Green with some unkindness, but she was relieved soon. Since she has transformed into a lich belonging to Green, isn't it natural to be loyal to Green?
Silabel reluctantly let out a sigh of relief, looked back, and readjusted his mentality.
"Get up, my general, from today you will be the commander of my undead army, give full play to your talents, and don't let me down." Green stared at James who was half-kneeling in front of him, and lightly pressed him with his hand. On the top of the head, this is the etiquette for the monarch to accept allegiance, which is somewhat similar to the meaning of the earth slapping the shoulder with a sword.
"I would like to be the master's sword." General James replied forcefully, then stood up and came behind Green as a subordinate. At this time, it was inevitable to see Silabel, which made a strange flash in his eyes, but without Green's order, he did not speak, such as cutting with the past, the former General James is dead, and the present is a new one. Allegiance to General James of Green only.
In the next few days, there was no movement on the surface of the red fortress, but in the dark, preparations were being carried out closely.
Originally, Silabel planned to use the most trusted men in the Guards to bury the enchanted explosives, but since ancient times, people were unpredictable, and she could not guarantee 100% that those people would definitely not reveal this shocking plan. In addition, how to detonate the enchanted explosive buried under the red fortress is also a problem. If it is detonated from a long distance, the fuse must be elongated, which is very easy to detect. After all, the other party has two legendary high-level powerhouses. If it is detonated nearby, someone must sacrifice.
No matter how loyal they are, how many people can go there without knowing that they are going to die?
Moreover, Silabel's subordinates are just ordinary soldiers, and there is no blessing of "faith" or "ism", I am afraid that the probability of mutiny will be higher.
However, these problems were solved after Green's arrival. Whether it was carrying buried enchanted explosives or detonating them in the end, no one was needed. Especially in the final detonation, it was only necessary to arrange a few skeleton soldiers or kobold zombies to enter next to the enchanted explosives. In the state of suspended animation, there will be no breath leakage. When you want to detonate, just activate it.
Although at the moment of activation, the kobold zombies will inevitably spill out psionic energy fluctuations, but when the enemy senses this trace of psychic energy fluctuations, the underground enchanted explosives have been detonated, and there will not be enough time to react. .
When Green received this task, there was no reaction on the surface, but he was very happy in his heart.
If all the enchanted explosives were installed by him controlling the undead creatures and detonated at the last moment, then according to the judgment of the cemetery, are those who were killed by him? When Green thought of this, he couldn't help but feel itchy. He killed more than 100,000 people in an instant. If converted into psionic energy, it would be at least millions of income.
However, Greene is not sure whether the enemy killed in this way will be recognized by the cemetery. With a mood of anticipation, Greene controlled the undead devil vine, made a passage two meters deep underground, and placed a large amount of enchanted explosives in the red A specific location below the fortress.
These locations are all accurately calculated building fulcrums, and they are also the most likely places for the rebels to be stationed after entering the city. Once the enchanted explosives are detonated, they will definitely cause huge casualties.
At the same time, Silabel commanded the defenders to continue to fight desperately with the revolutionary army, but deliberately showed an increasingly weak trend, paving the way for the next retreat.
Time has passed for more than half a month, and Green has already buried the enchanted explosives at the designated location precisely.
On the other side, Silabel commanded the army to defend the Scarlet Fortress and showed more and more fatigue. Especially in the past two or three days, the revolutionary army was on the offensive, but the Royal Army on the defensive side could only barely defend the city wall, and even forced it several times. Silabel personally took action to clean up the revolutionary army that rushed to the city wall.
Although Silabel was quickly restrained by the two legendary powerhouses on the side of the revolutionary army, her powerful strength still became the last line of defense of the Scarlet Fortress, giving the defenders a chance to breathe, and finally repelled the revolutionary army. attack.
But according to this situation, even with the existence of Silabel, the Scarlet Fortress will only fall a few days later.
In the fortress, there have been signs of panic, especially for those garrisoned troops that originally belonged to the red fortress. Even if they have been reorganized, they can still fight with the wind without changing the soup. Once they encounter a strong enemy, they will definitely There is a situation where the military's heart is floating, and even Silabel has found that some officers are secretly communicating with the revolutionary army outside the city.
Fortunately, everything was ready, and Silabel didn't bother to care about those who were unscrupulous. They simply decided to do whatever they wanted. Before the retreat, they pushed these troops that secretly colluded with the revolutionary army to the city wall. The main force in the battle before belonged to Silabel. The Praetorian Guard retreated to the rear in the name of trimming.
The next step is to retreat from the red fortress in batches to the preset field camp twenty miles behind the red fortress, and build a new line of defense.
Silabel showed superb control, and without the original garrison of the Scarlet Fortress being aware of it, he evacuated a large number of Janissaries from the fortress through clever mobilization and defense.
The next thing you need is a half-truth rout, and then give up the Scarlet Fortress logically...
