Constructing-Style Wizard

Chapter 38 38. The Power of the Battle Song

In the stairwell from the second basement to the third basement.

The imperial army marched forward, heading for the battlefield.

It would be a lie to say that you are not nervous about the upcoming big fight.

The silence in the surrounding air and the dull breathing sound from the breathing masks all showed how heavy the pressure was on the soldiers' hearts.

At depths close to three levels underground, the glow of coal lamps is dispensable.

An invisible magical power shrouded the imperial army, squeezing everything related to "light" and "hope" to the outermost corners.

The light emitted by the coal lamp cannot leave the range of the lampshade, and can only wander inside the glass shade, unable to even illuminate the soldiers' faces.

Everyone had to take the potion with night vision effect, and act under the vision condition that they could barely see the steps clearly.

At the same time, faint murmurs of pain lingered in the ears of every soldier.

Sad tones, miserable screams, and unexplained rhetoric tortured the hearts of soldiers all the time, planting seeds called despair.

The cold and poisonous mist on the third floor underground was tormenting the bodies of the soldiers.

The whispering in the ear is a kind of spiritual torment.

Obviously, since the appearance of the stone tomb on the second basement level, the difficulty of clearing the No. 1079 tomb has risen sharply, and Alvin's army can no longer challenge it alone.

Sergeant Alvin sent a message to the Legion for help.

Second Lieutenant Great was called in and rushed to support him as an Extraordinary.

His joining is undoubtedly a shot in the arm for the soldiers.

The soldiers therefore had the courage to challenge the three underground floors.

There is a place that cannot be ignored.

On Li Nuo's personal panel, a negative effect appeared.

He spent 1 energy point to deconstruct it.

[Prayer of Resentment: Using necromantic runes as the carrier, with the theme of the pain that breeds resentment, the priests of the Necromantic sect are singing this sad song that leads people to fall to death.

[Every 10 minutes, your "toughness" temporarily drops by 1 point. When "Toughness" reaches zero, you will die immediately. 】

Li Nuo's current attribute value of "Toughness" is 11 points.

If the fight is not resolved within 110 minutes, he will die here.

Even if the other soldiers' "toughness" attribute value is higher than his, they probably won't be able to last long in this environment of slow death.

From the beginning to the present, the imperial army has always been open to tricks.

Faced with this mournful elegy, the imperial army took out its own "big killer".

A portable record player appeared in the army.

After flipping the mechanical switch of the record player, there was a buzzing noise from the loudspeaker, followed by the loud, high-pitched and exciting imperial military song.

The soldiers cheered up and sang to the music:

"The emperor, the empire, the sergeant, the soldier.

"Always brave, always loyal.

"Our military fights anywhere.

"Our army will meet the enemy at any time.

"Soldier of Thatis, destroy your enemies, and let them suffer the defeat they deserve.

"Soldiers of Thatis, face up to your mission, let us enjoy the glory of the empire."

The singing set off sound waves in the tomb passage, gathering the courage and belief of victory of all the soldiers, and instantly dispelling the ominous omen imposed on them by the necromancer priest.

[System message: You are under the influence of "Tatis Empire Battle March".

[Your "toughness" temporarily increases by 20 points, and "dexterity" temporarily increases by 10 points, and the effect lasts for about 1 hour. During this period, the Necromancer's "Prayer of Grudge" will not take effect on you. 】

For the first time, Li Nuo intuitively felt the positive effect of the battle song.

His arms, his thighs, his chest and back, every muscle in his whole body, all of a sudden had a surge of strength and seemingly endless physical strength.

With a little wave of the fist, you can set off a whirring wind.

Just a few fiddles on the revolver can quickly complete the whole set of actions to load the cylinder.

Such power, such agility, and such a substantial increase in basic attribute values ​​deeply shocked Li Nuo.

An idea popped up in his heart involuntarily.

In time, he mastered his own army of the dead through the intensive study of death magic, and must formulate a battle song for his army.

"Prelude to the Dead" sounds cool and easy to mobilize people's emotions, but it is far from the gloomy and coldness of the army of the dead, and it does not fit the image of the army of the dead.

Li Nuo pondered for half a minute and came to a conclusion.

The theme song "Rise up Dead Man" of "Hunting Duel" may be more suitable than "Dead Overture".

I don't know what effect this song will have when it is transformed into a battle song.

"Warriors and soldiers of the empire!"

A mighty shout came from the front of the team, but it was the burly Second Lieutenant Gretel, who began to give orders:

"Sneaky undead, they thought they could do shady deeds under the eyes of the empire. Facts have proved them wrong! The emperor's gaze penetrates into every land, even this dark tomb cannot escape the emperor's eyes watch."

Second Lieutenant Great turned around and looked at the soldiers who stopped behind him.

With a roar, he turned into a huge biochemical giant.

Unlike Sergeant Alvin's previous injection of medicine to complete the transformation, Second Lieutenant Gretel did not need to use any auxiliary props to enter the biochemical giant form.

The surface of his gray skin secreted a unique gray oil, forming a complete set of biochemical armor covering his whole body in just three seconds.

He opened his hands and held them high in the air.

The bones of the hand squirmed violently against the skin, and the steely color spread across the fist.

Soon, Gretel's left and right hands became a veritable Imperial Fist - two huge fists tightly wrapped by tempered bones, as heavy as a sledgehammer.

This amazing transformation picture gave the soldiers great confidence, and the singing on the scene became louder and louder.

"Conquer this land with me, trample all the dead underfoot, slay the evil necromancer priests, and destroy the coffins that desecrate corpses!"

Second Lieutenant Great waved his fist:

"attack!"

As soon as the words fell, Second Lieutenant Gretel passed through the wide stone door at the end of the stairs, and charged toward the ocean-like army of dead behind the door.

Although Sergeant Alvin couldn't transform anymore and his body was a little weak, he still bravely participated in the battle, and he had already stepped behind the gate.

Behind Alvin and Gretel, the soldiers followed the pace of the chief and launched an indomitable charge.

The roar of guns and flamethrowers exploded, but Li Nuo didn't feel as uncomfortable as before.

This is the effect of the "toughness" attribute being greatly improved. Just the thunderous gunshots can no longer shake Li Nuo's mind.

He stepped over the stone gate, raised the revolver in his hand, and pulled the trigger with just a little aim.

The gunfire flashed, the bullets whirled, the poisonous mist was stirred by the bullets, and the head of a walking corpse exploded.

The improvement effect of the "dexterity" attribute is also amazing.

Under the almost blind shooting situation, Li Nuo turned into a gunslinger, and sent the six bullets in the magazine into the head of the walking corpse with incomparable accuracy.

When he was reloading the ammunition, a walking corpse suddenly attacked him, screaming and rushing towards him.

Li Nuo picked up the engineering hammer buckled on his belt with his left hand, turned sideways to avoid the walking corpse's bite, and hit the walking corpse on the back of the head with his backhand.

The head was cracked, and the blood was flying.

If such a set of movements was done in the past, Li Nuo would have made various mistakes in all likelihood, but now he is so smooth.

For a moment, Li Nuo had a strong desire to improve his basic attributes.

If he had such a set of attributes when facing criminal soldier No. 079, he would not be beaten by the opponent.

"Guys, look over there."

Sergeant Myers raised his hand and pointed to the center of the hall.

A majestic black tower stands there, watching the battlefield like a terrifying huge black shadow, silent but shocking.

From bottom to top, this tall tower presents a pointed cone shape with a wide bottom and a narrow top, with sharp edges and corners, and dead bones all over it.

On the top of this tower, there are two strange figures.

The man on the left has his back to the battlefield at his feet, wearing a black robe, and holding a bone staff with a green light in his hand.

The person on the right was held up in the air by the swimming green evil light, his body twitched and twisted continuously. His skin and hair gradually lost their luster, turning a lifeless grey.

Judging from the man's clothing, it was the death squad spy who had infiltrated the army.

Sergeant Marrs said angrily:

"The bastard of the Death Society is undergoing the transformation ritual of the Necromancer, and he is about to become a real undead.

"We have to blow up the tunnel to the Necropolis before the ceremony is complete. Otherwise this guy will escape from there."

Sergeant Marrs turned his head and waved to the team members:

"Quickly, follow me. Let's turn around from the edge of the battlefield! Second Lieutenant Gretel and the others will attract the attention of the enemy for us on the frontal battlefield. We must not disappoint their expectations!"

"Yes, sir!"

The prototype of the war song of the Tatis Empire is the Legio Aeterna Victrix, the marching song of the Roman legion.
