Chapter 394: The Sorrowful Horror

The old mage who returned to the magic tower again looked worried, but Lao Xie still looked indifferent. Seeing their strange expressions, Katherine couldn't help asking, "What, is something wrong?"

"What a big deal!" the old master smiled bitterly.

"What's the matter?" Catherine asked hurriedly.

"The undead natural disaster has begun again!" the old mage frowned and said.

"Ah!" Catherine was startled at first, but then her eyes lit up and she immediately said, "Then I will ask my father to allow me to go to the front line now!" As she said that, she was about to turn around and leave.

Lao Xie hurriedly grabbed her, and then sneered: "You still need to ask for it? He has already ordered us to go!"

"We? You go too?" Catherine then said a little guiltyly: "I'm sorry, I've implicated you, otherwise, as you are, you wouldn't have been sent to die."

"What do you mean?" Lao Xie immediately said dissatisfiedly: "Aren't it just a group of undead? What's the big deal? Am I still afraid that they won't do it?"

"Put your arrogance!" The old master immediately said angrily: "This time the situation is different. Even I may not be able to guarantee that I will come back alive. You should be honest with me!"

"Is this undead natural disaster different from before?" Catherine asked hurriedly.

"Alas, there are traitors in the Light Empire, and they are cardinals. Yesterday's cooperation, the first line of defense almost collapsed, causing heavy casualties in the Light Empire's soldiers, but the undead took the opportunity to expand a large number of troops. Now the second line of defense only has more than 100,000 elite soldiers, but they have to face millions of undeads. This battle is really hard to fight!" The old mage explained depressedly.

You should know that under normal circumstances, even if humans have the advantage of a castle, it is difficult for them to withstand too many undead spirits, and the number of three times the land is already the limit. After all, there are also a large number of masters there, whether it is various lichs or powerful death knights, they are no worse than human mages and warriors. In addition, with the huge number, it is indeed difficult to resist.

Fortunately, the Undead Island where the undead lives is thousands of miles away from the Empire of Light. Although there are a large number of ghost ships transported, there are only a hundred thousand people every time the Undead natural disaster lands. Although these are elite troops and their overall strength is even much stronger than the elites of humans, with the help of the castle, humans can still withstand a while. This is why the Empire of Light gathered more than 200,000 elite troops on the first line of defense.

However, once the undead quickly breaks through the first line of defense and relies on the bodies of civilians to create a large number of troops, it will be difficult for humans to fight in the future. Katherine is also very clear about this principle. After all, she is also an orthodox knight and has been trained strictly in military theory.

So after hearing the news, Catherine frowned and smiled bitterly: "The situation is so bad. What are your plans?"

"What else can he do? Of course, he should dispatch troops and generals quickly!" The old mage shrugged helplessly: "Now the Second Legion has been sent, the First Legion will set off later. I plan to take the Fire Law Saint and the Earth Law Saint to set off tomorrow. You have been appointed by the emperor to 1,000 champion knights. These people are the most elite troops in the empire and can be driven at any time. I hope you can also go out as soon as possible!"

"No problem!" Catherine immediately said, "We will set out tomorrow too! Let's go together then?"

"No need!" The old master shook his head and said, "We will take the portal, you can't do it. So we can only separate, I'll go there and wait for you first!"

After hearing this, Lao Xie and Catherine didn't feel strange. Because they both knew that the portal could only send a small number of people urgently, because the magic stone consumed was too amazing. It would cost 200 gold coins to teleport one person, so it was impossible to send thousands of people there. If that were the case, the Griffon Kingdom and the Empire of Light would not have much production and would go bankrupt.

"Okay. Don't worry, we will definitely rush there as soon as possible!" Catherine said hurriedly.

"Don't be so anxious, right?" Lao Xie said impatiently: "I have to prepare a lot of things, I will definitely not be able to leave tomorrow!"

"What are you going to prepare?" Catherine said dissatisfied.

"People and materials, why don't you prepare?" Lao Xie shrugged and said, "War is not about chatting and drinking, you must be well prepared!"

"Don't you have people? The supplies are also ready-made. You just need to bring enough for use on the road. At worst, you can find the Empire of Light at that time. The key is that people must arrive as soon as possible!" Catherine said dissatisfied.

"Haha. Catherine. You don't understand this!" The old mage smiled at this moment, "He has a lot of good things to use, and the group of berserkers under his command can also be brought with him. Those guys are better than the champion knights. Give him a day to prepare, and you will make sure you only make money and not lose money!"

"That's it!" Catherine's eyes lit up when she heard the name of the Berserker and she hurriedly said, "Okay, but it's only one day! I'm leading the war for the first time, you can't let me down!"

"Katherine, this is just a small scene. There is no need to be so nervous, right?" Lao Xie said with a wry smile.

For Lao Xie, a legendary lich is indeed just a small scene. He killed more than three digits in his previous life, so he naturally didn't take it seriously. But Catherine is different. For her, a legendary master is an unattainable existence. So she immediately said with laughter and tears, "Small scene? You are too arrogant, right? The Lich King has become famous for 2000 years. All the masters on the mainland have changed their eyes when they hear it. Even my master once thought he was not his opponent. Facing such a perverted guy, you are so embarrassed to say it is a small scene? I really don't know what the big scene is in your mind?"

Lao Xiexin said, of course, when I was besieged and died in my previous life, the people involved included all the experts in the world!

But of course Lao Xie couldn't say this, so he smiled slightly and said, "Is there a Lich King? Look at you so scared that after I kill him, you will know if he is a small scene!"

"Kill him?" Catherine rolled her eyes and sneered directly: "Little Stephen, are you not sick in your head?"

Even the old mage said solemnly like never before: "Boy, don't be too proud. I can tell you clearly that even if you have that thing in hand, you are not his opponent. With your current strength, as long as you meet him, you will be dead! Even if you jump the knife, you can't escape!"

The thing the old master said refers to the artifact "Star Loss". It was just because Catherine was on the side, so he was embarrassed to say it. Obviously, he thought that Lao Xie had the artifact and didn't know what his surname was. He was afraid that he would do whatever he wanted, so he warned him so harshly.

But Lao Xie still smiled indifferently: "Don't forget, besides that thing, I have a bodyguard!"

Obviously, this bodyguard refers to the legendary wizard Heidi. Lao Xie’s meaning is very obvious. He also has legendary masters around him. He does not ask Heidi to win. As long as she can trap the Lich King and give Lao Xie a chance to release the star loss, then Lao Xie will be sure to kill the Lich King’s sadness! After all, the power of the star loss is too terrible. Lao Xie uses it to beat the deep-sea monsters, the Sea Dragon King, which is almost the demigod level, to half-death level. I think, the Lich King’s strength should be less than that of the Sea Dragon King. So Lao Xie is so confident.

But after hearing this, the old mage shook his head and said, "If you think so, you're very wrong. The terror of the Lich King is not something you can imagine. Let's say that, the reason why he dared to attack the Empire of Light alone was because his strength was so perverted that he could ignore ordinary legendary masters. Even if the Elf King and his wife, the Dwarf King, and the Sword God Dongfang Bubai joined together, he would win!"

"No?" Lao Xie was shocked when he heard this, "Is this guy so perverted?"

"Yes!" the old mage said helplessly: "According to my estimate, at least seven or eight legendary masters must be gathered to fight him! Otherwise, he would not have given us such a headache!"

"But why is this?" Lao Xie asked in confusion: "Elf King and his wife each have one artifact, and Dwarf King also has one. Three artifacts plus 4 legendary masters can't beat him. Then his strength is too perverted, right? Is this still a legend? It's time to reach the level of a demigod?"

"Of course it's a legend. If it were a demigod, dozens of legendary masters would not be able to beat it!" The old mage sighed and then explained: "The great sadness is, in addition to his long practice, strong magic power, and climax of the realm, he also has several famous magic weapons, two of which are powerful sub-artifacts. Combined with his two thousand years of combat experience, he has indeed reached a point of almost invincibility! You can't accept it!"
