Overgod Ascension - 622. Chapter 622 Shadows (2400 plus)
“The great Lord of Shadows is watching everything in secret!”
The figure in the mist shrieked with a shrill laugh, as piercingly as a night owl screamed: “It’s just that you need to offer sacrifices to satisfy the great Lord of Shadows, just like you did twenty years ago!”
The Duke of Wellington closed his eyes in pain.
That year, he did not occupy a high position in the family. It was his elder brother who really had the right to inherit, the existence that seemed to have gathered the glory of the gods.
In order to gain supreme authority, he launched an attack on the throne of the heir. After the fiasco, the Duke encountered this self-proclaimed “Hand of Shadow”, serving a god named “Lord of Shadow” organization.
Under the temptation of evil forces, he made his request and sacrificed his love… From that day on, although he became the Duke of Wellington as he wished, he felt that his heart had fallen into it. In the dark.
“What do you want this time…”
His voice was dry, like a desert traveler who was about to die of thirst.
“The soul of all your children!”
The man in the shadow made a price.
“what?”
The Duke of Wellington was shocked: “This price is too high. I want to keep the family, but if I die from then on, the Wellington family will eventually fall into the hands of others. What does this mean to me? ”
“You may not clearly understand what I mean… I’m talking about the souls of all the children around you now!”
The figure in the shadow Jiejie laughed, and seemed to be a little unwilling: “My lord needs a sacrifice, the stronger and more perfect the better…Originally, if your little Arthur is still there, whether it is to sacrifice his soul , Or the sword in the stone, is enough to make my lord happy and satisfy any wish of you, but now…”
“Then I have one more requirement, you must rescue Arthur!”
The Duke of Wellington is well aware of the power of the Lord of the Shadows. Although he is not well-known on the continent of Thrall, the Hand of Shadows is a huge dark organization with power in almost all regions.
The power of the Lord of the Shadows is also true and real, at least able to accomplish some miracles, which is much higher than those of the gods who have the name of gods but have no power.
Perhaps, only the true God who has shown miracles among the churches can be comparable.
“make a deal……”
The black shadow smiled, and the black card immediately burned.
Dark green flames dance wildly in the darkness, like a carnival of demons and demons…
…
“My king, as long as we climb over the mountain in front, we can see Lionheart City!”
In the barracks, the 20,000 army marched for a day and camped and rested in an orderly manner. Viscount Bale brought the scouts in return.
Because of the map and the fact that Garcia and a group of surrendered highland princes act as inner ghosts, the Blue Dragon Alliance marching on the highlands can be said to be quite smooth.
“The other party has gathered tens of thousands of people, and it seems that they are ready to fight to the end!”
Viscount Bale looked a little excited: “Why don’t we encircle Lionheart City directly and send other troops to sweep the entire high ground!”
“Very good plan!”
Wu Ming nodded in praise.
Once the high ground is taken down, a Lionheart City remains, even if there are tens of thousands of troops, it is of no use.
“It’s just… a collection of civil servants and serfs, do you want me to stop?”
He smiled and said, “Viscount Bale, I can assure you that the tall walls of Lionheart City can’t even stop me for a moment!”
“Our wooden artillery unit has been used many times, and a large number of barrels have been damaged and must be rebuilt…”
Viscount Bale had some doubts, and didn’t know where Wu Ming came from.
“Is it true that after a few years, I have climbed a wooden cannon technique?”
Wu Ming looked at the back of him leaving, but he was a little speechless.
Even if wooden artillery is not good, with gunpowder, if you dig a tunnel and blast under the city wall, it is also an excellent method of siege.
Of course, he still has other preparations, and he will take a multi-pronged approach when the time comes, and he will not be afraid of Lionheart City’s powerful defense at all.
The group of red lions leaned on the protection of the city wall and gathered tens of thousands of people to make Lionheart City a quagmire to hold him back. How could this wish be realized?
“only……”
Wu Ming frowned.
At this time, the power of the people in his body was surging and worshiped, almost no less inferior to the conquering king, and the perception from the true spirit gave him a sense of danger.
It was as if a conspiracy against him had already taken shape.
“This plan should be dangerous to me…”
There was excitement in Wu Ming’s eyes: “I almost thought that in this world, no one can do anything to me!”
“Come on!”
He thought for a while, then ordered.
Several knights came in immediately and saluted respectfully: “Bring Arthur, and…you keep the camp tents close and stand by at any time, all the watchmen come to guard me!”
In terms of the general situation at this time, even if the Cape of Storms or any of the princes rebelled, Wu Ming still had enough time to deal with it. Therefore, his only weakness was his own safety, and Arthur was also an unstable factor.
After calculating these clearly, it is natural to take precautions in a targeted manner.
The same is true for the knights and mages who can fight underneath. He has no plan to fight alone. To become the leader of the power, he will naturally use mountains and seas of life to cross his opponents, bullying the weak with the strong, and bullying the others. Widowed! At this time, giving the enemy a chance to fight fairly is a complete second.
Into the night.
There is a little bonfire in the barracks.
In the main account, in front of Wu Ming is a golden dinner plate, among them are roasted golden lamb chops, as well as borscht and after-dinner fruit.
On the opposite side of the dining table, Arthur was pale, but still able to maintain the manners of the nobility. He saluted first, staring at the sumptuous dinner unconsciously, and swallowed: “Thank you for giving me this opportunity to have dinner together! ”
“sit down!”
Wu Ming waved his hand to let the waiter and guard go down.
Anyway, Arthur could not be his opponent at all, and these people were quite relieved.
It’s just that this kid seems to be a little unwilling, at least half of this wolf-going appearance is now pretended to deceive his sympathy.
Wu Ming was quite speechless, and immediately drew out a broken stone sword.
The moment he saw it, Arthur’s movement was stagnant.
“The proof of the lionheart king’s king, only recognizes the true king’s holy sword in the stone!”
Wu Ming smiled and showed the brilliance on the sword: “It used to belong to you!”
Arthur was truly horrified. Before the King of Conquer, he could pick up the sword in the stone. It was already extremely unbelievable, but the sword in the stone at that time was nothing more than an ordinary stone-carved sword.
Now that it shines, the power in it can already be used.
‘Am I not the real king? ‘
The blow to Arthur was simply unparalleled.
Although Wu Ming’s surface was calm and calm, his heart was a bit solemn, and his powerful spirit suppressed the call of the sword in the stone to his master.
‘The seal on this sword in the stone can be divided into four layers. The first layer is the contact curse. People who have not been recognized cannot touch it! ‘
‘The second layer is personal gain. Once stimulated, the knight’s abilities will be greatly improved. ‘
‘The third layer is a small range gain, and the fourth layer should be to summon the heroic spirits to carry out a powerful increase in the range of the battlefield! ‘
Now Wu Ming can only analyze the scope of the second seal, but with his original quality, using the sword in the stone, any knight is not an enemy of a sword.
“Now, it belongs to you!”
Arthur put down the knife and fork in his hand, staring straight at the light on the sword in the stone, his voice dry.
As soon as this statement came out, Wu Ming suddenly felt that the resistance within the sword in the stone was weaker, and he already had a guess in his heart:’Are contracts and rituals? ‘
Some magic weapons must defeat the original owner and obtain his approval before they can truly change ownership, just like a magic ritual.
Of course, the core of the sword in the stone is not so simple.
“Arthur, as my captive, I give your father the right to redeem you, but before that, everything about you is at my discretion!”
As the shadow approached, Wu Ming stood up, came to Arthur, and his oppressive gaze fell indifferently: “Now…I want a cup of your blood!”
Under his gaze, even Arthur had to give in, cut his palm with a knife and pour blood into the silver cup.
“very good!”
Wu Ming picked up the silver cup, with gleam in his eyes, silently thinking: “With the blood sacrifice technique, it should be possible to break the third seal and increase the power of the sword in the stone. Apart from still being unable to summon heroes, it should be able to withstand it. All my strength is gone.”
Huhu!
At this moment, the breeze was blowing, blowing a corner of the camp.
A black air stream poured in from the gap, layered on top of each other, forming another figure.
This strange scene made Arthur seem to be caught in his throat, unable to speak for a long time.
“A shadow?”
Wu Ming was calm, and glanced at this shadow with indifferent eyes: “You dare to assassinate me, are you not afraid of the guards outside?”
“Jie Jie… Guards? Under my silent barrier, you can try!”
The black shadow has a human-like body, and his blood-red eyes look at Arthur again: “Very well…you are all here!”
“Who are you?”
A faint possibility emerged, causing a hint of ecstasy in Arthur’s heart.
call out!
In the next moment, the black shadow rushed in front of Wu Ming like a flash of lightning, and a white dagger appeared in his hand.
when!
Wu Ming raised his sword to block, and the sword in the stone burst out with a golden flame. The moment it collided with the dagger, it shattered the entire dagger, and the flame fell unabated on the black shadow.
“what!”
A scream came, and the black shadow whistled again and again, and the shadow on his body disappeared a lot.
“Too weak! Too weak! Not you! Let the real people come out!”
Wu Ming said solemnly with a sword in his hand.
“My… my lord…”
The black shadow roared out a few words, and the breath on his body suddenly changed!
A vast and evil will suddenly descended!
