Chapter 755: Killing the Son of God

The earth began to tremble violently, that was the sound of thousands of horses galloping, countless Tukan cavalry swarmed in.

They had a sturdy body, black hair, yellow skin, relatively flat faces, short legs, and arms as thick as dwarves. They wore different armors, including leather armor, animal armor, scale armor, chain armor, and a small number of them wore dragon scale full body armor with a shape very different from the craftsmanship of the Faerun continent. This was probably looted from the Far East Empire of the Karata continent.

The only thing in common was that they all carried horse bows on their backs and grassland scimitars on their waists. Before rushing in, the horse bows were already in their hands, bent to the extreme, and they only needed the order of the majestic Tukan general who was rushing in the front to fire thousands of arrows.

"Stop!"

When there was still an arrow's distance from the older scholar, General Batumihe clenched his fist, and the entire Tukan Vanguard Army seemed to have been paused and stopped with a bang, fully interpreting what it means to obey orders.

This Tukan vanguard general is a standard Tukan man, but he is half a size bigger in every aspect, incredibly majestic. The carefully selected grassland horse under his crotch is much stronger than ordinary horses, but it looks like a small mule in comparison.

Carrying him on his back, he walked out of the Tukan vanguard army with a grunt, and stopped when he was half an arrow's distance away from the old scholar. Just from this distance, it is not difficult to see that he is a strong man who has experienced many battles.

This distance happens to be outside the attack range of most attack spells.

The old scholar spoke first: "Let Yamen Khan come to see me."

His voice was soft and had a unique tremor, but the will revealed in it could not be rejected.

General Batumih not only did not fly into a rage, but he accompanied him and asked carefully with great respect: "I haven't asked what to call you yet? So that our Khan knows who is inviting him to talk."

To be able to become the general of the vanguard of a huge army and command tens of thousands of troops, he must have more than just bravery, but also extraordinary wisdom and the ability to judge the situation.

Those monsters can sense that this man is unusual, how can General Batumih not feel it?

In his eyes, there is no gentle old man in front of him, only a skinny skeleton, with pale skin that is like dried in the wind, tightly attached to the bones, not only is the top of the head bald, but even eyebrows and eyelashes are missing, only black short sideburns on the chin, as sparse as the beard of an old goat, and the hands have withered into claws.

There is a faint light in his eyes, and looking at it is like a needle prick. There is a huge shadow behind him, as if countless monsters are lurking inside, and they can rush out in the next second.

This is simply a lich, a terrifying existence that can kill hundreds of people with just a wave of his hand.

If it is not necessary, never provoke him.

General Batumih did not know whether the other party could destroy the entire Tukan Vanguard Army by himself, but the other party definitely had the ability to pull him out from under the heavy protection of the Vanguard Army and kill him.

"I am Sazas Tamm, the chief mage of the necromancy of the Kingdom of Sel." The disguised lich answered concisely.

General Batumih thought that it was indeed the case, and his expression became more respectful, "Please wait a moment, Chief."

Then he rode back to the main camp.

If the other party appeared on the battlefield three days ago and reported this name, he would definitely not know who the other party was.

But if he still doesn't know now, it would be his dereliction of duty.

As the general of the Tukan Vanguard Army, the most important task is not how many cities he attacked or how much land he plundered, but to collect intelligence along the way, test the strength of the enemy, and lock the looting target for the main force of Tukan to achieve a fatal effect.

If you just rush forward blindly and bring your main force into a desperate and dangerous place, no matter how brilliant your achievements are, you will be guilty, and a hundred heads will not be enough to chop off.

General Batumihe has already had a general understanding of the surrounding situation from the prisoners captured in the past two days, among which Sazas Tam is the most frequently mentioned name.

The red robe wizards who rule Sel will be the chief system. They are divided into eight major systems according to the spell system. Each system is ruled by the most powerful red robe wizard who specializes in this system, called the chief.

That is, Sel has eight chiefs, who rule Sel together, and all major decisions are made by them.

However, these eight wizard systems also have strengths and weaknesses, and the first one is naturally the first wizard system, and their chief is called the first chief.

Now the necromancer system is the first wizard system in Sel, and the lich named Sazas Tam is the first chief of Sel.

The only difference is that it was not because the necromancy system was strong enough in Cyre that Sazas became the first chief of Cyre, but because he was strong enough and became the first chief of Cyre, he brought the necromancy system from Cyre to become the first mage system.

He was known as the most powerful red robe mage in the history of the Red Robe Mage Association, one of the most powerful liches in the entire Faerun, and a terrifying existence whose combat power could rank among the top ten mortals.

He was indeed not qualified to talk to him, only their king Yamen Khan could.

Sazas just stood there quietly, not worried that General Batumih would stand him up, the tens of thousands of Tukan vanguard elites here were his hostages.

He did not wait too long, and soon a powerful magic transmission aura came from the Tukan vanguard army, and then the Tukan people burst into shocking cheers, "Great Khan, Great Khan, Great Khan!"

Then there was a rumble of horse hooves, and a group of Tukan heavy cavalry wearing golden dragon scale armor rushed out from the vanguard. A powerful aura came from them. This was a quasi-legendary escort. .

After the golden heavy cavalry of nearly a hundred people formed their formation, the three cavalrymen walked out unhurriedly. Their expression was very similar to that of Sazas when he walked out of the Sasha Pass, exuding the name of confidence. breath.

Even the golden heavy cavalry composed of nearly a hundred legendaries could not cover up the power displayed by the three people and the three cavalry.

Slightly half a horse behind on the left side is General Batumih, the general of Tukan's vanguard army.

The man riding side by side with him was a full two heads shorter than General Bartumih, but two laps wider, especially his belly, which directly burst his bright red monk's robe, sticking out, with a big head and a bare head. He has no hair, but has a pair of snow-white eyebrows, which are long and thick, making him look kind-hearted and always smiling.

This person exudes a unique force field, which makes people have the urge to bow before him.

Compared with the two people with different shapes after standing up, the one in front of them looks much more ordinary. Whether it is figure or appearance, among the Tukan people, there are a lot of people who dare not say that there is really no one worthy of being noticed. s things.

If you insist on looking for it, it is the aura exuding from his body, which is filled with a fishy and sweet smell. In front of him, all the war horses can't help but lower their heads, and all the monsters are fighting, lest this aura will blow away. When he turned his head, it turned into a sharp long knife and struck him.

This was the aura of killing. In front of him, those executioners whose profession was to behead people, the aura of killing on their bodies was like a drop in the ocean.

There is only one way to obtain this kind of aura, and that is to kill - not necessarily direct killings, but also those indirect killings caused by his death.

This murderous aura was so terrifying. It moved with the movement of the master, overwhelming the sky. The distance between the two sides was still fifty meters. The disguise on Sazas was directly shattered by the impact, revealing the Lich himself and the undead gathering behind him. The army bore the brunt and involuntarily took a few steps back. Several ghosts howled miserably and exploded on the spot, turning into the purest negative energy, which was directly sucked away by the terrifying killing aura.

I have heard of people being scared to death, and this is the first time I have seen the undead being scared to death.

Sazas's shimmering eyes shrank extremely and became as big as the tips of needles, which represented his inner shock.

Kill the Son of God.

This Yamen Khan actually possessed fragments of the godhead of Baal, the God of Slaughter, and became a pawn in his resurrection from the mortal world.

It is not a secret that Baal, the King of Slaughter, has some tricks left in the mortal world and wants to make a comeback. If any evil god does not have two tricks left, it is called a god's failure.

It's a bit weird to leave one's last resort on a foreigner.

But when I think about it carefully, I can't help but marvel at the layout of the God of Murder. This is a typical off-site move. Although it may not be hidden from the eyes of the gods of Faerun, mortals will be fooled by it.

The most important thing is that these predatory wilderness peoples are in perfect harmony with the god of killing. Their process of plundering is the process of killing.

The Endless Wilderness is extremely huge. Just their internal unification war can allow Yamen Khan to accumulate an astonishing amount of killing power, not to mention that they can invade the Xianglong Empire of Karatu Continent southward, which is famous for its population. A dense city with a population of millions.

The terrifying killing power currently shrouded in Yamen Khan is proof. If millions of people had not died because of him, he would never have reached the point where the fierce flames are now. This is a typical power of using a mortal body to control gods. This You are playing with fire. If you are not careful, you will burn yourself to death.

This time he led the Tukan army to march westward. He was probably forced to do so. The killing power in his body was close to the limit that the human body could control. He could either obtain more fragments of the killing godhead and drink poison to quench his thirst to delay the backlash of the killing power. , or find a way to regain the priesthood of killing and become the new god of killing.

Since the killing power is inherited from Baal, he cannot become a god on the Karatu continent and must return to the original place of power, the Faerun continent, because many things belonging to the former killing god Baal are here, including enemy.

Yamen Khan's biggest enemy this time is not the good forces and people, but the god of conspiracy, Cyric.

Before the Year of Troubles, Baal, the God of Murder, Melkor, Lord of the Dead, and Bane, the God of Tyranny, were revered as the Three Gods of Death or the Three Dark Gods. They controlled a series of dark priesthoods in Faerûn (murder, violence, death, etc.). , strife, tyranny, etc.).

In the year of turmoil, under the divine will of the god Io, Baal was also forced to return to the continent of Faerûn in the form of an avatar.

After his killing power was weakened to the point where he could only occupy a mortal body, Baal began an unprecedented carnival of destruction and killing.

When Lord Bane sought to challenge the power of the Patron God Torm, he slew all the Assassins in the Realms who were loyal followers of the Lord of Murder, further weakening Baal's power.

After Bane, the Lord of Strife, failed in his challenge and was destroyed, Baal formed an alliance with Melkor.

The two searched for the Stone of Destiny and returned it to Io, so that they could break away from the shackles of their mortal bodies and return to their own divine kingdom.

After a manhunt that spanned the entire continent of Faerun, Baal kidnapped the current goddess of magic, Midnight, who was still in her mortal state, and seized a piece of the stone tablet of destiny, but was immediately murdered by Cyric, who used the sword of the thief Max incarnated as the Divine Disaster.

The Winding River, not far north of Baldur's Gate, is said to have absorbed the remaining essence of Baal, the god of murder, and the river was poisoned from the Bosca Bridge to the Troll Claw Beach.

Baal's followers believe that part of the god's divine personality fragments of the god of murder were left in the black, smelly water of the Winding River, just as the essence of Myrkul survived in the Crown of Horns, and the fragments of Bane's personality remained in his manservant Bane Lich.

Most of the priesthood of the three gods of death was absorbed by Cyric, the god of conspiracy, who was the last person to want Baal, the god of killing, to be resurrected.

But Cyric's current situation is very embarrassing. Before Yamen Khan officially tried to be a god, he was restricted by the divine law and had no way to attack a mortal.

Yamen Khan did not come alone. There were hundreds of thousands of Tukan troops willing to charge for him.

If he really rushed into the continent of Furen, the believers of the God of Conspiracy would be the first to suffer and shed blood.

The sacred law of faith has undergone subtle changes. The proportion of secular faith in the power of gods has become increasingly important. If the believers of the God of Conspiracy in Furen are eradicated and no one dares to call out Xirik's name, then even if he does not fall, his divine power will decline greatly.

That time is the moment when Baal will be resurrected from the body of Yamen Khan and regain his glory and priesthood.

No, to be more precise, the greedy Lord of Murder will never be satisfied with his former priesthood. He may even get involved in all the priesthoods that Xirik has now - murder, disputes, lies, conspiracy, fraud, illusion, death and the dead.

It is even possible to get involved in other priesthoods, such as war, plunder, and destruction.

Because wherever the Tukan army passes, it will inevitably bring war, plunder, destruction and death.

Even though Sazas, who has been transformed into a lich for many years, has long lost his emotions, he still feels his soul beating uncontrollably. If his speculation is correct, this war is no longer a simple plundering war, but a continuation of the war of gods in the turbulent years.

But this time, it is no longer a head-on collision between the incarnations of gods and saints, but a game with mortal creatures as chess pieces, and the prize is to become a new god.

And their Ser unfortunately became the first obstacle in front of the Tukan army.

Yamen Khan looked down at the lich full of death power, and said calmly: "Chief Sazas, I believe you already know why I came. Do you choose to join us? Or are you ready to be the first sacrifice of my flag?"

Although the words are extremely arrogant, Yamen Khan cannot underestimate the lich in front of him.

The divine power on his body allows him to see many things that mortals cannot see. Standing in front of him is not one person, but countless people.

This lich seemed to have perfectly merged with the entire kingdom behind him. He was just a spokesperson.

If he went to war with him, even if he had collected the terrifying killing divinity and killing power, Yamen Khan would not feel much chance of winning.

When a mortal has enough power, he has the ability to challenge the gods (the incarnation of the gods), especially those kingdom rulers, those rulers who are recognized and respected by the people, can be blessed by the power of national destiny and national beliefs. They are the most powerful forces in the secular world, and those gods have to give them three points of courtesy.

This point has reached an extreme in the Xianglong Empire of Karatu Continent. Their king calls himself the emperor of man and has absolute secular ruling rights. Even the gods have to stand aside. They actually cut off the connection between the gods and the mortals with human power, forcing Kunlun Tiangong to live in seclusion and the West Heaven Lingshan to be sealed off.

Don't think that without the protection of the gods, the Xianglong Empire will be easy to deal with. If that's the case, why would he travel thousands of miles with the Tukan army to fight in the Furen Continent? Just break through the Xianglong Great Wall and go south.

It is very common for mortals to control divine power over there.

Those generals who are canonized by the Human Emperor usually have the ability to bless themselves with the power of the army. That situation is like the incarnation of the gods.

Except for himself, no one in the Tukan army can withstand it.

The reason why they were able to successfully plunder in the south before was not because they were so powerful, but because there was a problem inside the Xianglong Empire. Because of the position of the Human Emperor, the two princes fought each other and had no time to pay attention to them.

The other party has freed up their hands now. If they go south again, once the Human Emperor leads the expedition, it will not be as simple as being beaten. It is not uncommon for the Tukan people in the entire Endless Wilderness to be driven by them to become horse herders.

If they are driven westward, it will be of a different nature.

The death force behind Sazas surged wildly, and in the blink of an eye, it turned into a shadow skeleton visible to the naked eye, as huge as a mountain, even covering the Sasha Pass, and seemed to be able to swallow the entire Tukan Vanguard in one gulp.

The first chief mage of Sayre responded tit for tat: "If you want to sacrifice us Sayre, you have to have the ability to do so."
