Constructing-Style Wizard

Chapter 53

If Sergeant Pim wanted to bury all the imperial troops in this ancient tomb, he had to complete the two steps of beheading and seizing power.

Beheading, that is, using the hands of the undead to kill Lieutenant Gretel and Sergeant Alvin, leaving the imperial army in a situation where there is no one to command.

And seizing power means using military rank to control the overall situation when the army has no commander.

Now, Sergeant Alvin is unconscious, and Second Lieutenant Gretel is dragged by the Crypt Spider.

Invisibly, Sergeant Pim became a well-deserved commander.

The soldiers didn't like this guy, but the military order was like a mountain, so they could only walk into the stairwell with their heads depressed, and went to the basement floor to face their new commander...

Li Nuo walked in the middle of the team with the unconscious Corporal Mika on his back, thinking as he walked.

He always felt that he had overlooked some details.

Some crucial details.

You see, Captain Murphy appeared on the third basement floor as expected, and went to rescue Ensign Gretel.

After that, wouldn't Second Lieutenant Great return to the basement?

Isn't the command of the imperial army still in the hands of MI4? It wasn't going to be taken by MI2 Sergeant Pym.

But if this is the case, how to explain that Second Lieutenant Gretel did not die on the third underground floor?

Shouldn't he have been killed by the Crypt Evil Spider?

Furthermore, if one wants to forcibly explain the reason why Second Lieutenant Gretel was not killed in battle, it must involve the strong hidden in the imperial army.

This has the potential to expose Martha Murphy's existence.

A light flashed in Li Nuo's eyes, and he suddenly realized.

Therefore, Second Lieutenant Great must die.

It's just a death in name, not a real sacrifice.

After he is rescued by Captain Murphya, he will turn from bright to dark, becoming a hero who died gloriously in the eyes of soldiers, and a dead soul in the eyes of Sergeant Pim.

But why did Captain Murphya let Gretel die in name?

Li Nuo was a little confused, didn't quite understand the situation, and always felt that there was a secret hidden in it that he didn't know.

He shook his head to drive away distracting thoughts, and turned to think about his situation.

He was in a very bad position.

Sergeant Alvin was in a coma and Lieutenant Gretel disappeared, which meant that no one would help him block the pressure from Sergeant Pym.

Pym, a secret spy, will use insidious means to greet him nine times out of ten.

At that time, how should he deal with it?

Relying on Sergeant Mars and the opponent's toughness?

Li Nuo shook his head slightly, denying this idea.

After all, the rank of Sergeant Marrs was one level lower, so it was difficult to deter Sergeant Pym.

You have to find another way.

"Soul Shield" protected his soul.

But that's not enough.

His body also needs to be protected.

The best way is nothing more than mastering death-like offensive spells, and when faced with the threat of Pym's life, attack decisively to crush Pym's malice.

However, the movements of death-type offensive spells are too loud, which can easily attract the attention of others, so it is not suitable for dealing with Pym in front of soldiers...

Besides, he didn't deconstruct the offensive death spell.

In that case, it would be better to summon an undead to fight for him.

After the undead on the first and second floors of the basement are revived, they can be seen everywhere.

The undead summoned by Li Nuo can be hidden in the army of undead, and then act at the critical moment.

This scheme has advantages and disadvantages.

The advantage is that the undead he summoned is covered by an army of undead and will not be distinguished by the imperial army.

But the disadvantage is that it is easy to be accidentally injured by the imperial army.

However, this disadvantage is not without ways to improve.

It would be good to select the Crypt Lurker as the summoning target.

The appearance of this thing is the same as a stone brick, as long as it does not move around, it will not attract the attention of the soldiers of the empire, and it can survive the battle completely.

Li Nuo reached into his pocket, held the cold domino in his palm, and continued to think.

The "Pure Domino" has been obtained, which is the core material for summoning undead creatures.

The aggregates and corpses needed for summoning are everywhere in the tomb.

The bone-melting powder needed for the summoning ceremony should be the white ashes of the skeleton soldiers. It can be picked up everywhere, and it is not scarce.

All that remains is the spell to summon Crypt Lurker.

But where can I find this spell?

What needs to be deconstructed to obtain the spell blueprint for summoning the Lurker in the Crypt?

Li Nuo frowned slightly, his mind spinning rapidly.

In the next second, he slapped his head and said to himself that he was a little slow.

Hey, there is no need to risk being discovered to summon undead creatures.

I am really a bit stupid.

Just find a ready-made Crypt Lurker, pull out the dominoes in it, and then put your own dominoes in, can't you use it as your own summoning unit?

Others may not be able to do such a showy operation, but he certainly can.

With the "Mark of Resentment" on his body, as long as he doesn't show any aggressive intentions, he can easily approach the crypt lurkers.

If the hands and feet are fast enough, the dominoes in the Crypt Lurker's body can be buckled before it can react.

Don't worry about wasting dominoes by doing this.

As long as the "pure domino" is not damaged, Li Nuo can take it off the undead at any time and save it for the next use.

After finalizing the preliminary plan, Li Nuo now has only one question:

What kind of tricks will Sergeant Pim use to deal with this criminal soldier like himself.

…

The morale of the defeated imperial army was low.

They went all the way up in the dull atmosphere, arrived at the basement level, and stepped into the camp. Fortunately, the Bound Spirit of Shizhong has not yet recovered, otherwise this group of defeated generals would definitely be beaten severely.

Sergeant Pim had learned the news of the imperial army's defeat early on from the guards.

He put on a neat military uniform, combed his hair meticulously, put on spotless glasses, and walked out of the tent.

Looking at the dismal-looking and dirty-clothed imperial soldiers in front of him, Sergeant Pim showed a fake smile on his face:

"It's really hard work, soldiers of Alvin's army. I have received the news of your defeat on the third underground floor. Second Lieutenant Gretel's spirit of self-sacrifice deserves the admiration of each of us. He is a true hero of the empire. Now, soldiers ,listen…"

Sergeant Pim walked slowly in front of the soldiers with his hands behind his back:

"...I am the highest-ranking sergeant on the scene, and I will receive interim command of Alvin's army"

"Report, sir!" A soldier boldly interjected, with a hint of stubbornness and disbelief on his face:

"Secretary Sergeant Alvin is resting in the camp, maybe he has woken up"

"Hehehe" Sergeant Pim raised his hand and brushed his hair slowly:

"No, Sergeant Alvin is tired. He needs deep sleep to stabilize his injuries, otherwise the hidden wounds in his body will seriously deteriorate. Soldier, you don't want Sergeant Alvin to go into battle with a serious illness, do you? Do you have the heart to watch? Did he spit blood in front of you?"

The speaking soldier bowed his head, no longer protesting.

The other soldiers looked the same, and they all looked at the ground.

"Okay, time is running out. According to the combat principles of the Imperial Army, it is natural for me to take over the command. You have no right to object."

Sergeant Pym stood back to the front of the queue, glanced across the crowd, and saw Sinner No. 888 behind the queue, but Sergeant Marrs was nowhere to be seen.

Sergeant Pim looked at Criminal Soldier No. 888, a trace of cruelty flashed in his eyes.

"Listen to the order, everyone is resting in the camp. Without my permission, you are not allowed to leave the basement floor."

After speaking, Sergeant Pim raised his hand and pointed in the direction of Li Nuo:

"Guard, bring criminal soldier No. 888 in! I suspect he is a spy of the Guild of Death! I'm going to interrogate him now!"

"What are you going to do...why are you imprisoning me..."

Li Nuo pretended to be panicked, and was picked up by Pim's guards and dragged away.

He sneered in his heart.

Damn Pim, are you in such a hurry?

Well, well, it seems that what happened to Pig did stick to his heart like a sharp thorn.

Li Nuomou made up his mind before moving, his heart was as calm as water, without the slightest panic, which was very different from the panic shown on the outside.
