Chapter 416: Assassination

"Well, it's almost the same, maybe there's a little more, after all, his advantage this time is too great!" Catherine said helplessly, "Is there any way you can stop him?"

"Yes, there is such a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity now!" Lao Xie narrowed his eyes and said, "If done well, this undead natural disaster can end in an instant!"

"What?" Catherine said in surprise when she heard this: "What opportunity, tell me quickly?"

"It's just killing the Lich King sad!" Old evil said fiercely.

"Ah?" Catherine said with a lot of laughter and tears: "Dear, do you have a fever? With our strength, one thousand champion knights, one hundred barbarian warriors, a sword saint and a mysterious woman, I'm afraid it's not enough for the Lich King to clean up with one hand! What's more, there are many masters around him. It is said that there are dozens of masters in the Holy Land alone."

"No, you were wrong!" Lao Xie said immediately: "If these strengths were not enough for the Lich King to deal with themselves before, but now they are different. The Lich King is extremely weak now and his strength has been greatly reduced. We still have the strength to compete."

"The Lich King's strength has been greatly reduced?" Catherine immediately said in confusion: "How do you know?"

"Does this still need to be asked?" Lao Xie sneered: "The power of the earthquake technique yesterday was so powerful that it could destroy hundreds of miles of defense at once. Even we were greatly affected. It was obviously that powerful forbidden spell. This forbidden spell cannot be released casually. Generally speaking, it must rely on collective power, and the host will also lose its magic power greatly. Without a certain amount of time, it is impossible to reply."

"Yeah? Are you sure?" Catherine asked immediately excitedly.

"I am more than 80% sure that this is the case!" Lao Xie then said: "Unless the commander of the forbidden spell this time has someone else, and he must also be a legendary master."

"It cannot be commanded by others." Catherine immediately said affirmatively. "Of the undead attacks this time, only the Lich King is a legendary master, and no other undead monarchs came. This news cannot be wrong!"

"If it was really the commander of the Lich King himself, then he would definitely be in a weak state now." Lao Xie immediately said affirmatively: "This is definitely not wrong!"

"So you guess how much his strength can be reduced? Can the troops in our hands beat him?" Catherine asked.

"It's not a big problem to deal with the Lich King, but his subordinates are in a little trouble. We can't defeat all the undead with more than a thousand people!" Lao Xie said.

"Are you talking nonsense?" Catherine then smiled bitterly, "Even if the Lich King is injured, with so many undead troops protecting him, how could we kill him?"

"Of course I'm not talking nonsense!" Lao Xie immediately said solemnly: "I just got the news that the Lich King was anxious to enjoy his own fruit of victory, so he personally led the troops along the path we were walking to supervise the battle. If it were normal, we would naturally not be able to rush into the army of undead to kill the Lich King, but now we have a very good opportunity, that is, ambush halfway!"

"Ambushes?" Catherine's eyes lit up immediately when she heard this.

Lao Xie continued to explain: "The terrain here is extremely complex. As long as we carefully select a suitable location, we can find an opportunity to face the Lich King directly. Once we assassinate the Lich King here, all the undead he controls will be finished!"

The reason why Lao Xie said this is because the control method of the undead troops is different from that of humans. In order to prevent their subordinates from rebelling, each undead monarch will sign a soul contract for his resurrected direct subordinates. This contract clearly stipulates that as long as the master dies in battle, all subordinates will die immediately. Therefore, as long as Lao Xie can kill the Lich King, it is equivalent to solving all undeads invading the continent in disguise, and this time the undead natural disaster will be completely over.

After hearing Lao Xie's words, Catherine first thought carefully before asking: "Do you think we can kill the Lich King?"

"Of course!" Lao Xie said lightly: "But, obviously it is not a sure thing. I just said that we have this opportunity, and as for the chance, we cannot judge. Because no one knows how the Lich King's injury is? The weaker he is, the higher the chance of our success. If he is not injured at all, then our action this time can be called death!"

"But once we succeed, we can instantly understand this undead natural disaster and save tens of millions of lives, right?" Catherine asked.

"Yes!" Lao Xie nodded.

"Since that's the case, I think we are still worth taking risks!" Catherine said solemnly: "It would be a pleasure to succeed. Even if it is a failure, we can take the opportunity to delay the Lich King's advancement speed and buy time for the people behind us to retreat!"

"Ye!" Lao Xie nodded and said, "I knew you would choose this way, but there is an ugly saying that is ahead. This time the opponent is really great, so I can't guarantee that anyone's safety, including you and Lan Snow!"

"Ask Lan Snow to fly back to report the message immediately. If you want, you can leave. Just leave all other things to me!" Catherine said resolutely.

"Haha, silly girl, since I proposed this plan, how could I quit?" Lao Xie smiled.

"You, you don't have to follow me to take risks!" Catherine said gratefully: "In fact, you are just being implicated by me this time, and there is no need to fight the dead of the dead with the undead. Besides, you have a beautiful wife waiting at home, and the Stephen family waiting for you to inherit. If something happens, I will be uneasy!"

"Haha, don't worry, even the Lich King can't do anything to me. He doesn't have the ability yet!" Lao Xie smiled and said, "Okay, stop talking about this, just discuss how to make this plan!"

"This requires calling General Blue and the guide to discuss this!" Catherine then said, "But before this, I have to send that annoying little girl away!"

As he said that, Catherine was about to go out. However, Lao Xie immediately called her and said, "Wait, what are you going to tell her?"

"What else can I say? Let's tell the truth?" said Catherine.

"That's not possible. If you tell her the truth, this little girl would never miss such a fun opportunity!" Lao Xie immediately shook his head.

"It seems that she is really stubborn." When Katherine heard it, she made sense and hurriedly said, "Then what should I say according to you?"

"Why do you lie to her and ask her to send a message to the third line of defense!" Lao Xie smiled and said, "You have to tell her solemnly how arduous this task is. After completion, she will become a hero. Then she will definitely go there, and you don't need to urge her!"

"You're still cunning!" Catherine smiled, and then she turned around and left.

Next, Catherine called the little princess Lan Snow over as Lao Xie said, and told her seriously, what an important task she needs to complete now, and then asked her if she was afraid?

Although the little princess Lan Snow is smart, she is not very knowledgeable after all. She is suddenly deceived by Catherine and said on the spot that she will complete this "important" task at all costs.

Then Catherine praised her for a few more words, saying that Lan Snow was a brave and good boy, worthy of being the princess of the Griffin Kingdom. She was so excited about what the little girl said, and she almost screamed on the spot.

So, after Princess Catherine handed over the mission of delivering the letter to her, she immediately took off with her flying shoes without saying a word, for fear of delaying the time.

In fact, there is only one sentence in Catherine’s so-called emergency superstition, that is, ‘In order to allow light to cover the earth as soon as possible, I will do my best to try to kill the Lich King! Success or failure depends on God’s will! Please pray for us!’

After sending away the little princess Lan Snow, Catherine, who had no worries at all, simply called the entire army to meet. She first talked about the terrible consequences of the undead this time, and then made some speculations, and finally announced her decision amidst amidst amazement. Then Catherine said to the knights, "If you don't want to fight with me, you can leave by yourself. I will give you the order to retreat. This is not considered as your deserter, and no one will hold you responsible."

Catherine waited for a while, but no one left. Next, without waiting for Catherine to ask questions, the people below shouted, willing to fight side by side with Catherine, even if they died in the battlefield, they would never regret it!
