Chapter 1004: Just a chess piece

Both Gavin and the dog demon showed extraordinary movement speed. General Setin had no chance of winning against them head-on.

Seeing that they could not take down the corpse hound and General Setin, Gavin and the dog demon stopped attacking and circled around them, trying to contain them as much as possible, not allowing them to tear open the defense line of the six-armed skeleton army, giving the skeleton cannon more attack time and destroying more enemy manpower, especially the skeleton giant cavalry led by General Setin as a guard.

General Setin obviously also noticed this, and naturally did not let the other party get what they wanted, and began to slowly advance with the corpse hound.

Corpse monsters like corpse hounds are too powerful on such a large-scale battlefield.

As long as they cannot cause devastating damage to them in a short period of time, they are immortal.

General Setin also has no good way to deal with the enemy.

Their speed advantage is too obvious, especially when Gavin found that the transformation ability of the soul-seeking demon was not very useful, and it was even more so after he turned around and transformed into a dog demon.

The main ability of this soul-seeking demon is concentrated on the negative energy burst, which is a magical skill for self-healing and assisting the undead soldiers, but it is not very useful for Gavin.

On the contrary, his body is too bulky and his movement speed is slow, which is not conducive to the current chaos.

Most importantly, as an undead, he lacks physical fitness and has no way to activate the extraordinary body or legendary body.

When General Settin struggled to the front of the six-armed skeleton army with the giant corpse hound, there were only a few skeleton giant cavalrymen who had followed him to charge.

To be more precise, the entire attacking team was much thinner, and those ordinary undead soldiers were also affected by the saturation bombardment of the skeleton cannon and were blown to pieces.

It can be said that it was easy for General Settin to tear open the defense line of the six-armed skeleton army.

They passed the five-meter-high bone-breaking slope with one foot, and a casual blow knocked the six-armed skeleton soldiers off their horses. The half-giant skeleton soldiers behind them rushed up and quickly gained a foothold to welcome more half-giant skeleton soldiers.

When fighting face to face, the advantage of the six-armed skeleton soldiers was greatly reduced. As more and more half-giant skeleton soldiers rushed up, casualties began to increase rapidly.

The roar of the skeleton cannons was obviously much less. Most of the defective products made of ordinary bones were broken after such a long period of frequent use.

The other three directions also began to break through one after another. Although there were no skeleton giant cavalry led by General Sestin, there were a large number of corpse hounds and death hunters. When they pushed up, especially the latter, they could easily gain a foothold.

When the undead army completely rushed to the bone hill, the balance of victory completely tilted to General Sestin.

But General Settin was not happy at all. He felt that he had fallen into a huge trap, a trap carefully prepared for him.

Just like the six-armed skeleton army before, the role of this six-armed skeleton army is to consume their own manpower, especially the skeleton giant cavalry led by him, which is the focus of the opponent's attack.

If nothing unexpected happens, the offense and defense will change hands, and they will face the pursuit and interception of the enemy cavalry.

General Settin has reason to suspect that this trap started with the six-armed skeleton army. Their role is not only to consume the manpower of the undead army, but also to guide himself and concentrate the backbone of the undead army to use as elite soldiers.

It is convenient for the enemy to take them away by surprise and use saturation group attacks to pave the way for the next war.

The skeleton barrel fragments all over the ground silently proved this point-this thing has a limited number of times, and the opponent has no intention of taking them away from the beginning.

Facts have proved that General Settin is not crazy.

A deafening roar sounded from afar, and a group of skeleton cavalrymen attacked the undead army from the periphery.

They were not many in number, only about 30,000, divided into more than a dozen corps.

Like the six-armed skeleton soldiers, the appearance of those skeleton cavalrymen was also extremely strange.

Most of them looked like skeleton centaurs at first glance, but their lower body was not a horse body but a cow body, and their upper body was not a human body, but a mixed body of a minotaur.

Their speed was obviously slower than that of skeleton centaurs, but they had weight that they did not have, especially because they were wearing heavy bone armor, which made their charge particularly terrifying.

These special troops were the real main force of the enemy, and the six-armed skeleton soldiers on the bone hills were cannon fodder used to attract their attention.

More than a dozen corps were like more than a dozen iron combs, raking and scratching the back of the undead army, tearing off pieces of bones.

By the time General Sestin reacted, the enemy had rumbled away.

But they did not go far, but regrouped in a place within sight, preparing to launch a second round of charge against them.

This time it was a blatant cannibalism.

General Sestin, who no longer had cavalry, had no good solution for the situation.

Undead soldiers have never been good at moving speed, which is another reason why they often use the tactics of the sea of ​​undead.

This battle cannot continue like this.

Now they are in the enemy's home field, whether it is the battlefield or the recruitment of soldiers, it is extremely advantageous to the enemy.

Although he recruited a large army of undead, they were like rootless duckweed here, and one less was lost.

He had to return to the territory and fully exert his advantage of explosive troops.

But what made General Setin feel extremely desperate was that it seemed to be a luxury to bring the remaining undead soldiers back to the territory.

He was lured too deep into the enemy's territory by the enemy before.

The enemy's skeleton cavalry was like a maggot attached to the bone, and he couldn't get rid of it at all. From time to time, they would rush up, or eat away some undead soldiers from the flank or from the end of the team.

There were thousands or hundreds of them.

This scraping tactic was not painful at first, but if it continued in the same part, every time it would hurt to the bone.

General Setin did not try to use his powerful force to lead a small number of skeleton giant cavalry to completely defeat them.

But the divine being and his devil servants were also elusive and lingering.

After several rounds of fighting, and almost losing himself, General Setin no longer took this risky attempt.

It was not that he was afraid of death. His soul source was in the Giant Skull Castle where the Giant Bone King sat. As long as it was not destroyed, he would not be completely destroyed.

But if he was killed, the remaining 200,000 or 300,000 undead army would basically have no hope of returning to the Giant Bone Territory.

Without his leadership, they would be torn apart, and by the time he returned after rebirth, they would probably have been swallowed up.

Although the undead in the Giant Bone Territory are endless, it always takes time to recruit them, especially since most of the remaining ones are essences, which takes longer to summon.

General Setin suddenly realized that he had overlooked a crucial issue - when he issued a war call, it was equivalent to summoning all the undead in that area, and those soul pools were in an unprotected state.

He was too eager to fight before, and only wanted to find and defeat the enemy, and then take his divine power for himself.

He didn't consider at all what disastrous consequences would be if he failed.

So much time has passed, and it is still unknown whether those soul pools still belong to the Giant Bone Territory, or even whether they still exist.

General Setin is now 100% sure that this divine power controls the ability to transfer and even destroy soul pools.

After they attacked the bone hill, they didn't see the shadow of the soul pool, as if what he saw before was just an illusion, and it had never existed.

After figuring out the key, General Setin no longer hesitated and directly launched the skeleton teleportation technique, allowing the heavy skeletons to wrap himself up and return to the Giant Skull Castle.

He was greedy, but he knew how to judge the situation.

The enemy he faced this time was the most cunning he had ever seen in his life. If he continued to toss like this, he was afraid that he would not be able to seize the killing power, but would instead give the entire Giant Bone Territory to the enemy for free.

Compared to facing an unknown master, General Setin preferred the Giant Bone King who he had already figured out.

Gavin was the first to get the news that the enemy commander had left, because this would directly affect the undead army.

Without the mandatory constraints of General Cestin's command helmet, the entire army immediately fell apart, and the low-level undead lords didn't know how to act for a while.

Some foolishly led their soldiers to stay where they were, some led their undead soldiers on the way home (soul pool), and some directly attacked the skeleton cavalry wandering around.

"This commander is smarter than we expected. I thought he would react only after his troops were exhausted!" The dog demon seemed to praise, but actually revealed a strong disdain.

This undead general is a typical person with great ambitions but little talent, and his command ability is terrible.

Before the enemy's situation was clearly scouted, he blindly recruited a large army and marched into the enemy's territory.

It's normal to be led by the enemy.

Then again, in the Abyss, this situation is normal.

Their brain capacity is not particularly high from top to bottom, and they have always won by numbers.

Their number base itself is terrifyingly large. If coupled with the conspiracy and intrigue of the devils in the Nine Hells, then this world has long been devoid of other creatures, all occupied by the demon army and swallowed by the bottomless abyss.

"This is up to you. Eat them all. This will be the last relatively easy battle. Our methods have been exposed almost, and the same tricks will definitely not work. We must race against time to destroy more enemies, seize more soul pools, and accumulate more soul power before the enemy's army gathers."

Gavin will not underestimate the war potential of the Giant Bone Territory because of General Sestin's poor performance.

They took advantage of the deliberate calculation before, and the enemy will not be so careless and reckless next time.

An undead general casually called out in the Giant Bone Territory, and gathered an army of 500,000 or 600,000 undead.

If the entire Giant Bone Territory came out in full force, wouldn't it be 5 or 6 million?

In the face of sheer numbers, the previous tricks were not enough.

They had to take advantage of this gap to maximize their success.

The first step was to attack the undead army led by General Sestin.

They had already figured out the details of this undead army, especially the soul pool where his mount, the giant corpse hound, was located.

And sent out elite troops, elite death rangers and elite corpse hounds to guard there.

Previously, it was to avoid alerting the enemy and scaring General Setin away, which would not be conducive to luring the enemy deeper.

Now, of course, there is no scruple.

Gavin's first target was it.

The size of this corpse monster is closely related to the life dice. The larger the size, the higher the life dice, and the stronger the strength.

This giant corpse hound has a life dice of at least 35.

Although corpse monsters like corpse hounds and death rangers are produced throughout the Bone Plains, the Giant Bone Territory is undoubtedly one of the most productive and high-quality territories.

The other is the territory of the Skeleton Dragon King in the south.

Among the undead army led by General Setin, there are no less than 20, and no one has a life dice less than 30.

They were all taken in by Gavin and modified into his most powerful weapons.

When fighting against the Soul-Calling Demon Lord before, Gavin had kept a hand and did not expose the corpse monsters that had evolved after being devoured.

Compared to those temporary skeleton cannons, they are the key to Gavin's real formation of a heavy-armored army.

The combat effectiveness of corpse monsters with skeleton cannons and those without skeleton cannons is very different, whether in a one-on-one duel or a large-scale battlefield.

After this round of expansion, Gavin's undead army can be equipped with at least two corpse monsters.

When all the soul pools belonging to those corpse monsters are occupied, the remaining undead army is a dish, and it is only a matter of time before they are eaten.

The Killing Territory immediately sounded the counterattack horn, not only launching a counterattack against the territory where General Sestin had withdrawn empty troops, but also dividing troops into multiple routes to launch a crazy attack on those soul pools with full troops.

Attack cities and towns all the way, and advance madly towards the Skeleton Territory.

Crazy expansion and expansion, in this way to increase their strategic depth.

When fighting with the King of Giant Bones, they will have more room for detours.

…

"I failed my king's trust, please punish me." General Sestin asked the Bone King for punishment in a very bachelor manner.

"What's going on?" The Bone King did not fall into a rage.

Compared with other demon lords, these intelligent high-level undead lords in the Bone Plains are relatively more rational, which has nothing to do with lawfulness.

It is because the undead lack emotions. They will not be easily controlled by their emotions and pay more attention to practical interests.

"The enemy is far more powerful than I thought. They dispatched millions of elite troops to lure me in and set up an ambush."

General Sestin lied, "It is impossible to fight against it with just the ordinary undead army in the territory. I need to mobilize the elite troops on the front line to come back and annihilate the enemy in one fell swoop."

He ran back not to warn the Bone King kindly, but to mobilize troops.

Use the Bone King's soldiers to seek greater benefits for himself.

Having witnessed the unique power of the killing power with his own eyes, he was even more reluctant to let it go easily.

This was a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity, which could kill two birds with one stone.

It could not only destroy the enemy, but also weaken the strength of the King of Giant Bones, preparing for his next step to replace him.

"I didn't expect you to be so naive! So stupid!" The King of Giant Bones responded coldly, "Do you think I will believe you!"

Click!

The King of Giant Bones snapped his fingers crisply, and the rib helmet on General Setin's head immediately lit up, like a living thing, and began to wriggle rhythmically. The bone spurs that pierced his head also moved with it, and immediately unspeakable pain swept through his soul.

General Setin screamed uncontrollably, shouting: "No... No... No... That's my memory... That's mine... You can't take it away, you can't..."

At this moment, he finally remembered another use of the rib helmet, which was to facilitate the King of Giant Bones to bring up his soul memory.

The method of extraction was simple and crude.

All his memories after he put on the rib helmet were torn and stripped away.

After the King of Giant Bones takes back his ribs, he will completely get this memory, while General Setin will lose it permanently.

General Setin himself does not know how many times he has been deprived of this memory because this part of his memory is missing.

This practice is very abyssal.

In the bottomless abyss, betrayal is the norm.

Trust and loyalty are the most scarce resources.

A qualified demon lord must master more than one way to control his subordinates.

The King of Giant Bones is undoubtedly qualified, and General Setin is just a chess piece he sent out to detect enemy intelligence.

As the rib helmet turned back into a giant rib and returned to the King of Giant Bones, what General Setin saw, did, and even thought after putting on the rib helmet entered his mind intact.

Divine power exists!

Killing Godhead fragments!

A brand-new evolutionary unit!

A group attack weapon made of bones!

Superb tactical application!

Interesting! It's really interesting!

I didn't expect that I would receive a great gift from heaven while I was sitting at home.

This fool, Setin, was as naive as ever.

He actually thought that he could kill a divine being with a group of miscellaneous soldiers, snatch the killing divine power from him, and then rebel against him and replace him.

If divine beings were so easy to deal with, the demons in the bottomless abyss would have become the food on the plates of countless demon lords and been torn to pieces.

The Abyss had even counterattacked the upper planes, tearing apart countless kingdoms of God, dragging those high and mighty gods off their thrones, and trampling them hard underfoot.

"Why am I here? Wasn't I fighting the ghoul army on the front line?" General Sestin, who had recovered, was full of doubts in his words. He always felt that he had forgotten something important, but he couldn't remember it no matter what.

This kind of memory deprivation would cause a serious soul shock, causing his mind to fall into a large area of ​​confusion, resulting in the situation where he was deprived of his memory by the rib helmet many times, but still didn't know its second purpose.

Now his memory was reset to the moment he was summoned back by the King of Giant Bones.
