Lord of the Nation: My talent is 100 million points strong
Chapter 1262 About Other Lords
Chapter 1262 About Other Lords
After hearing Lei Xiao's steady voice, these new subordinates showed awe and gratitude on their faces, and their tense nerves finally relaxed completely.
As a result, many new subordinates, who had just stood up in panic at Lei Xiao's signal, collapsed to the ground uncontrollably again, all looking relieved for having survived a disaster.
Especially those illusionists and combat maids whose faces still had traces of smoke and blood, they even began to sob quietly.
"How can you behave in front of the Lord?!"
Seeing this scene, the three new subordinate captains were about to step forward and scold, but were stopped by Lei Xiao with a wave of his hand.
Every time the smoke cleared, Lei Xiao could almost see the same scene.
Faced with the tremendous strength of a nation-defending warrior and the bombardment of countless magic cannons, coupled with the scorching breath of fire and blood, fallen comrades, broken battle flags, shattered armor, curled blades, bloody hands...even veterans who have experienced hundreds of battles would never turn a blind eye. This is only human nature.
"I remember the first time I saw a real battlefield near the mountain fortress. Even though the battle had already ended, I was still terrified. The feeling of almost suffocating was something I will never forget."
"Although we don't know what these new subordinates have been through, I'm sure it must have been equally suffocating, right? Moreover, they were summoned away from their homes to this completely unfamiliar land."
Lei Xiao did not intend to blame the new subordinates. Instead, he calmed down and immediately asked about the personal information of the three new subordinate captains and their circumstances before being summoned.
"My Lord, this is what happened."
The old light guard commander named Dylan took a deep breath and a hint of confusion flashed in his wrinkled old eyes.
Lei Xiao learned about it through the veteran's description.
In the land where the new subordinates are, since the end of the blank era, the surviving humans have not been independent of each other, forming multiple forces in the human world and opposing each other, but have formed the only human kingdom. Dylan and others are part of the palace guard.
"After the blank era, has the human world become a whole? No wonder Dylan and his men are so powerful. After all, they have gathered the palace guards of the entire human race."
Hearing this, Lei Xiao nodded thoughtfully. This was undoubtedly the first time he had encountered such a situation.
"My Lord, under the leadership of monarchs from generation to generation, the human world has been developing peacefully and steadily. Although there are sometimes fierce battles with foreign barbarians, in most cases it is still peaceful. This has caused many nobles to indulge in sensual pleasures and even forget how to take up arms."
There was a hint of helplessness in Dylan's old voice, and he couldn't help but sigh and said, "That's why, when the dense undead skeletons began to attack the city frantically, those fat city lords who couldn't even walk steadily soon became part of the undead with fear and despair."
"In the end, the entire human world was shrouded in the terrible shadow of death and darkness, until only the capital where I and others were located remained, with the last glimmer of light of life."
"However, in the face of the terrifying power of the calamity level, all resistance was futile. The absolute defense barrier of the royal capital was almost shattered at the touch of a button. Then the enemy marched straight in and easily broke through the door of the palace, causing wailing and screaming everywhere."
At this point, Dylan's wrinkled throat rolled, and he obviously recalled some terrible scenes.
He took several deep breaths before calming down and continued, "I was responsible for guarding the back door of the palace. There is a separate absolute defense barrier there, and it is also extremely remote. That is why I was able to escape and become the final target of the terrible Undead Lord."
After hearing what Dylan said, Lei Xiao nodded and said, "So, what you are facing is a large army of undead?"
"My Lord, this statement is not accurate."
Dylan's old voice suddenly began to tremble, and drops of cold sweat broke out on his forehead.
He forced himself to calm down and said tremblingly, "What I and others are facing is the entire human world filled with death and darkness!"
"what?"
Hearing the sound, not only Lei Xiao, but also the other subordinates around who were listening attentively all showed surprise and opened their eyes wide.
"Old General, do you mean to say that the Undead Lord has turned the entire human race into undead?"
Lei Xiao reacted instantly and said in disbelief.
"That's right. After everything was destroyed, the backdoor defense barrier supported by my subordinates shattered again. The overwhelming force directly caused the magic tower to shatter, causing the illusionists and battle maids who desperately supplied energy to the barrier to be injured due to the damage and explosion of the energy supply array."
Dylan nodded heavily, and his old voice trembled again.
"At the moment when the barrier was broken, just when my subordinates and others were completely desperate, we were summoned by the lord. That's how we finally escaped and were not swallowed by the raging sea of skeletons."
After Dylan finished speaking, the other two new subordinate commanders also nodded, with complex expressions of fear and sorrow on their faces.
As the barrier was broken, they clearly saw that the undead warriors rushing in the front wielding sharp blades included not only their former comrades, but also an old skeleton wearing a crown and with a gray beard that had not yet faded. That was their former king.
After listening to Dylan's description, Lei Xiao's face couldn't help but show a bit of solemnity.
For him, who had the loyalty of Nolan and Lina, and had fought against many necromancers such as Nightmare Knight, the term "undead" as a special forbidden summoning creature was obviously not a strange word.
But no matter how powerful the Undead are, they share a limitation with other summoners, that is, the overall strength of the summoned creature is at most equal to that of the summoner himself.
Even with the blessing of some powerful magic weapon, the summoner's strength is at most one level higher than his own. However, the situation encountered by Dylan and others is unheard of.
After all, whether it is controlling the undead or other summoned creatures, it requires the consumption of the summoner's own magic power, and also requires some kind of potential magic connection. This means that the number of manipulations will inevitably be limited, and there will never be an infinite summoning situation.
"It is not difficult to see from this that this is exactly the result of the Undead Lord's talent."
"Although I don't know the specific content of his talent, I can be sure that he obviously has the ability to transform his dead opponents into undead spirits, and he also ignores the limit on the number of undead spirits."
After sorting everything out in his mind, Lei Xiao took a deep breath.
No wonder all the new subordinates showed fear when they were summoned at the very beginning. After their tense nerves were completely relaxed, it was even more difficult for them to control their emotions.
Faced with this unbreakable desperate situation, these new subordinates were not cowardly at all. On the contrary, they were very strong and unyielding.
"It must be said that the talent of every lord who dominates a piece of land is indeed not to be underestimated."
"Just from the perspective of this undead talent that ignores numbers, it will be a huge challenge for me. At least for now, I don't have any effective means to deal with it."
Lei Xiao thought so, and according to the usual practice, he gave his new subordinates more powerful fourth-level equipment as well as storage rings and other items.
As for the third-level equipment and other upgradeable items carried by the subordinates, Lei Xiao naturally collected them all, upgraded them casually, and used them as new reserves.
"We are extremely grateful for your gift, Lord!"
With more powerful equipment and out of gratitude and respect for Lei Xiao, Dylan and other new subordinates naturally soon became fully loyal and determined to serve them until death.
"This is your new home. If you encounter that Undead Lord in the future, I will personally avenge you."
After Lei Xiao said this, he looked at Witt and other dragon knights and made the same promise to the latter.
Amid the grateful thanks from the new subordinates, Lei Xiao did not hesitate and took out 1000 second-level recruitment orders to make the final summons to new subordinates.
When the dazzling golden light gate dissipated again, what appeared in front of everyone this time were a thousand magicians in standard robes, who obviously came from the same place.
"Are almost all of them at the peak of the second level? That's perfect. We only need 1000 third level potions to make everyone at the third level."
Lei Xiao opened the overview interface of the new subordinates and nodded with satisfaction.
As for skills, they are similar to the magician squadron of Otake, Kotake and others.
"By the way, including Asagao, almost all of the magician servants I summoned before came out of the magic tower."
"And according to Gray who was summoned last, the situation of the Magic Tower is extremely grim and is almost on the verge of collapse. I wonder what the situation is like now?"
"Especially Chao Yan. Although she looks heartless, her big eyes will reveal a hint of sadness as soon as the Magic Tower is mentioned. It's obvious that she is worried about the Magic Tower. It's no wonder, after all, that's where she grew up."
"I hope everything is fine. The Magic Tower has trained many elite magicians for me."
Just when Lei Xiao was thinking of this, he saw a middle-aged magician commander with scars on his face running up to him with a respectful look on his face.
"On behalf of the soldiers, I greet you, Lord. Thank you for saving us from despair!"
The middle-aged magician knelt on the ground and swore his loyalty to Lei Xiao, while the other magicians did the same thing, all with expressions of gratitude and respect on their faces.
"Please stand up, fate has brought us together. From this moment on, we are all comrades who will advance and retreat together."
Lei Xiao bent down and helped the middle-aged magician up. He could clearly feel that the other person's body was stiff and trembling slightly. It was obvious that the lower-ranking person was in awe of the higher-ranking person.
Just as Lei Xiao said, after being helped up by Lei Xiao, the middle-aged magician named Ritter introduced himself with reverence on his face and was amazed in his heart.
The lord in front of him not only exudes a vast aura, but is also followed by a group of powerful warriors. If his former homeland could have so many powerful nation-level warriors, it would not have been destroyed so easily.
Under Lei Xiao's questioning, Ritt told him everything that happened before he was summoned.
It turns out that Ritt and a thousand other magicians came from a magic kingdom that had turned into ruins, and were responsible for guarding the only miracle building in the royal capital.
The function of that miraculous building was extremely simple, which was to deploy an absolute defense barrier to protect the safety of the capital and the palace.
However, when the two absolute defense barriers were destroyed one after another, the opponent directly teleported its elite forces to the King's Hall, took over the old king who died on the battlefield and beheaded the prince who had not yet been crowned. They also destroyed everything along the way in order to intimidate other countries that were still unwilling to surrender.
After the fall of the royal capital, Ritt and his companions were surrounded by the enemy's army. They had to rely on the extremely sturdy Miracle Building to hold on. Although they could not teleport in, leaving the enemy helpless for a while, the despair of losing everything and running out of ammunition and food quickly spread inside the Miracle Building.
Faced with this inevitable death situation, just when despair was about to swallow up Ritt and others, Lei Xiao's call came just in time and rescued the magicians from the siege.
"So, the talent that lord possesses is teleportation?"
After listening to Ritt's description, Lei Xiao first calmed the other party's mood, and then nodded thoughtfully.
"That's right, Lord. The other party's teleportation technique is extremely terrifying, even to the point of being unbelievable. Not only can it instantly teleport the army to any location, but it can also teleport all kinds of terrifying monsters from the outside world into the city, and it can even bypass the ordinary absolute defense barrier."
Ritter swallowed his saliva, nodded to Lei Xiao and said, "It is precisely because of this tried and tested tactic of first sending monsters to wreak havoc in the city, and then sending the army when the city is exhausted, that the magic kingdom where I used to be was defeated so quickly, and had no power to fight back at all."
"Such a powerful teleportation technique is obviously not even comparable to Jiang Xi. No, it is far beyond the capabilities of a space magician."
Lei Xiao stroked his chin gently and pondered in his heart.
However, compared with the Undead Lord just now, the threat posed by this Teleportation Lord is undoubtedly much smaller. After all, with the blessing of the two divine lands, he can move freely in the human world and deploy troops at will.
"Moreover, from Ritt's description, it is not difficult to see that this teleportation lord has not yet dominated the human world. He even used the method of killing chickens to scare monkeys to force other countries to surrender. From this point of view alone, it is obvious that he is also a ruthless guy."
Lei Xiao thought so and focused his attention on Ritt again.
