Necromancer: A New Era

Chapter 33 The Tranquility Before the Final Battle

Tang Yue stood outside the military tent, the biting cold wind was blowing, his hair dancing in the wind, just like his mood at the moment.

That young knight and that 6th-level wizard both gave up their own lives to save him. They didn't even have time to get to know each other, and Tang Yue couldn't even call out their names.

"Is this the human race in this world?" United, they stood in such a cruel environment. Countless predecessors filled the void with their blood and flesh and blood, and fought one after another without fear. They supported each other and used their lives to save their compatriots. They were willing to embrace death for a prosperous tomorrow, just for the rise of the human race, just for their descendants to not become food.

"It's exactly the same as the Dragon Kingdom world I came from. Countless predecessors chose to sacrifice without fear. They dyed the flag more colorful with their boiling blood and built an indestructible Great Wall with their bodies. They bravely fought against those greedy invaders. They had only one goal, which was to let the descendants of future generations no longer have to linger in the smoke of war! They can live freely and enjoy the prosperity and peace."

Thinking of this, Tang Yue missed his former home even more.

An armored knight came up to Tang Yue, looked at the masked Tang Yue, and said softly: "My friend, I can feel your mood. The loss of Tumu Fort is not your fault. The orcs are determined to take it down. The real war is just about to begin!

Tang Yue was brought back to his senses by his voice and responded, "Thank you, who are you?"

"My name is Christie, and I am the captain of the Thousand Knights of the Imperial Royal Guards. I am here to take over the command of the civilian army here.

Looking at the angular face of the middle-aged knight, he said calmly: "Hello, my name is Tang Yue, a casual necromancer."

"You are very special. Are you interested in joining us? I am short of an adjutant." Christie invited.

"Sorry, I'm used to being alone."

"That's terrible. From my perspective, you are destined to be extraordinary in the future. I hope I can have the opportunity to witness it."

Looking at him, Tang Yue felt a little strange, and muttered in his heart, "I'm wearing a mask, how did you see that?"

"Thank you, but I don't believe it myself."

"Hahahaha, little brother, the battle is about to begin, come with me, let's assemble!" After saying that, he walked towards the assembly point.

At the assembly point not far from the military tent, on a high platform, Corps Commander Christie stood on the edge, looking at the noisy crowd and disorganized formation below, frowning slightly.

The next moment, the holy land's aura exploded, and invisible air waves crashed down like ocean waves. The crowds nearby fell backwards, and the scene instantly became quiet.

"I am your new leader. Before I came, many people were unwilling to lead you to fight. Do you know why? I was also surprised when I saw that they were unwilling to come. Are civilian organizations really so incompetent? Only after I came here did I realize that they were right. Leading you to the battlefield is a dead end, not to mention this life-and-death battle between the two tribes! You can't even beat the orc slave army, do you understand?"

The crowd below the stage exploded instantly, with angry shouts and curses coming one after another, and the scene was in chaos for a while. Christie watched the scene with a faint smile, and did not say anything. He was waiting, because he knew that this group of people needed to vent, and they did not like to be looked down upon.

When the shouting and cursing faded away, Christie added a hint of momentum to her voice: "Because you have no discipline, no rules, and you fight each other on the battlefield. Even though you have hundreds of thousands of people, a knight group of 10,000 people can easily kill you all!"

This sentence aroused even louder noise. Christie saw that the stimulation had achieved the expected effect and asked loudly, "What? Don't you believe it? I need you to line up a thousand people. You can choose the most powerful ones, including warriors and mages. I will send a team of three hundred people for you to compete with. At the same time, I will also give you a chance to prove yourselves. If my people lose, I will apologize for what I said just now and get out of here!"

After a brief noise, a team of a thousand people was elected. All of them were skilled fighters, and many were even powerful mercenaries. It was a pity that they did not know each other and could not cooperate. Instead, they stood in groups of three or two and barely formed a team of a thousand people.

Seeing that they had made their choice, Christie waved her hand and a team of 300 people came over in uniform steps. At the captain's command, they switched the battle formation and started a confrontation.

And then, nothing happened. The team of a thousand people was easily defeated. Several times, when they broke through the defense gaps under the leadership of some powerful level 5 warriors and were ready to take them down in one fell swoop, the knights changed their formation and made a few simple moves to easily resolve the attack.

Christie waved her hand, and the Knights retreated, leaving a thousand people in the field with embarrassed faces. Many powerful people shouted words like "It's not fair, let's do it again" and so on.

Christie's face darkened. "You don't accept it? With your way of doing things, I overestimated you. The orc slave army can kill you all without any effort!"

"Do you know why? It's because of your arrogance, your unwillingness to humble yourself, your extreme individualism, your unwillingness to cooperate, and even your unwillingness to accept your own failure."

Christie looked at the faces with various expressions and sighed slightly. "The fate of the human race has been unfortunate. We have been on the brink of extinction many times. Now it is time to test us again. I am deeply relieved that you came here on your own initiative. The backbone of our human race is not broken. There are many good men fighting for the fate of the human race. But your current state is no different from committing suicide! You must always remember that you are a group. The power of a group is enormous, and to unleash this power requires each of you to obey orders absolutely!"

Christie raised her voice: "Now, I need to reorganize the army. Those who are willing to obey orders stand on the left, and those who are unwilling stand on the right!" People began to line up, most people chose the left, and only a few stood on the right.

Christie looked at the people on the right and shook his head helplessly: "You can leave now. War is no joke." Then, he turned to the people on the left: "From today on, we will undergo strict training. We must become a disciplined and tacit army! Only in this way can we fight against the orcs and defend our homeland!"

Tang Yue looked at Christie with a twinkling eye. He could not believe that this guy was quite capable. He had tamed so many people so easily. If it were someone else, he would probably not be able to argue with hundreds of thousands of people even if he racked his brains.
