Chapter 399 A shocking scene
Time passed very quickly, and the two knights from Wushan Castle had arrived at Wushan Town and Brilliant City respectively.
The nobles, big and small, who learned about Rulans's recovery through Marvin and Vittorino also sent their own troops, one or two clamoring to fight alongside the Marquis.
Luo Ning found this scene quite interesting.
When Wiggins issued the recruitment order, many nobles were reluctant. Even last year when they conquered the Polish Thieves Group, many people wanted to join in the fun.
Now Lulans has not issued a recruitment order, and has not even said a word to the outside world, but this group of people has volunteered to join the army that conquered Black Python City.
There are probably two main reasons.
One is, of course, that Rulans has recovered and Thunder Marquis has returned strongly, and they need to show their loyalty;
The second one is Black Python City. This count territory occupies a large area. If Orson was stripped of his earldom and lands, his vassals would theoretically also lose their lands and rights.
In this way, other people will have the opportunity to fight for so much land that is freed up.
For these two reasons, nobles were very active.
Compared to the liveliness of Wushan Town and Bright City, Black Python City seemed to be very deserted.
For more than half a month, Osen not only did not send anyone to negotiate, but there were not even any scouts to inquire about the news, as if Wushanbao's troops were not targeting Black Python City.
Luo Ning couldn't understand this move for a while, and could only guess whether the other party was relying on him, so he rode the dragon to see if Orson was prepared.
The territory of this border Earl has a large plain, which is rich in horses and is also the third largest grain-producing land in Wushan Territory.
Luo Ning could clearly see many people working in the fields, as well as horse farms of various sizes.
These people did not seem to realize that the war was coming and did not show any panic.
However, as Luo Ning came to the sky above Black Python City, what he saw changed.
Everyone in the city gathered around the castle, like devout believers paying homage to the gods they believed in.
Luo Ning frowned, "Oson is planning to drag all the civilians onto the battlefield?"
The lord does have the right to drag civilians to the battlefield, but these militiamen who have not received much training can play a very limited role on the battlefield, especially this time Black Python City faces the Knights of Wushanbao and the Magic Energy Chamber of Commerce. Magicians and knight squads from various nobles.
Under such circumstances, with so many militiamen mobilized, Luo Ning's first thought was that Orson had become seriously ill and sought medical treatment?
"Master, there is a smell here that I hate!"
Carlos's soul communicated, his tone full of disgust.
Luo Ning was stunned for a while. His dragon thought most about eating and sleeping every day, and rarely expressed his opinions on his affairs. This was the first time today.
"Your disgusting smell..."
Luo Ning immediately thought of the mysterious valley in Wubei Territory, and then he thought in his mind, "You mean, there is a smell like Natalia here?"
"Yes Master, this smell makes me sick and I don't want to be here for a second!"
The time he was imprisoned was a nightmare that Carlos could never escape. Every time he recalled it, his body and heart felt very uncomfortable.
After receiving a positive answer, Luo Ning thought about Orson's recovery again.
Rulans and Miroslav both felt that the second-hand Soul-Eating Surge had a duration, which caused Orson to recover on his own.
But now after being reminded by Carlos, Luo Ning felt that it was possible that someone like Natalya who could control the power of the Shaman had cured Orson.
"The Shaman Soul Clan, the power of the Shaman Soul Clan, could it be that there are remnants of the Shaman Soul Clan hiding in the Black Python Castle?"
Through the memories of Rydal, Elrond, and McCann, the soul-eating surges on Natalia and Rulans were manifestations of the Shaman Soul Clan and the power of the Shaman Soul.
It was the so-called Shadow Lord Elliot who defeated Redal's Flame Expeditionary Army in the Flame Canyon.
But in that battle, Redal and others also eliminated each other and perished together.
If there are really people from the Shaman Clan in Black Python Castle, where did they come from?
"Come on, let's go down and take a look."
Although Carlos was reluctant, he still folded his wings slightly and lowered his height. The light bending magic also covered his whole body, and the group of civilians below could not find any trace of it.
As the height dropped, Luo Ning saw clearly the expressions of the group of people surrounding the Black Python Castle. Their eyes were all blank, as if they had lost their souls.
Even though the exact number of people on the third and third floors among these people was unknown, they did not communicate with each other at all. Apart from the roaring sounds in their throats, there was no sound at all.
Luo Ning's heart suddenly tightened, and his expression became ugly: "Could these people have all become Shaman Clan, right?"
He thought of Redal's introduction. Although the Soul Shaman Clan was exactly the same as the human race, their characteristic was that strange dark energy surged through their bodies, and their mental power was so powerful that they could sense it at the level of a magister.
Luo Ning quickly closed his eyes, and his mental power spread outwards and enveloped the crowd below.
At this moment, his perspective was like the wind of detection. When he sensed it, the group of people were all wrapped in special dark energy and connected together, like a dark sea of ink!
No wonder Carlos can sense the smell that disgusts him. With so many "Natalia", it's hard for him not to be able to sense it.
Ronin opened his eyes and looked at the many people surrounding the castle, with a flash of pity in his eyes.
They were all civilians, but they were transformed into something that was neither human nor ghost and had lost its self. How crazy were the people behind it!
The pity in Ronin's eyes turned into anger, but then he realized something and became more flustered.
"Rydar said that Shadow Lord Elliot has the ability to transform ordinary people into witch souls. Could it be that there is a so-called Shadow Lord in Black Python City?"
As soon as this thought came to his mind, his expression changed drastically.
Shadow Lord, that is a legendary magician.
At the beginning, Rydar and his companions of the Sun Knights, plus several Silver Moon Knights, killed Elliot and her subordinates at the cost of dying together. If such a level of existence appeared in Black Python City, what would happen?
"The spirit power of a legendary magician is extremely strong. If there is such a person here, he should have discovered me and Carlos. There is no movement in the castle now. I should have thought too much."
Roning suppressed the reluctance, anger and panic in his heart and regained a slightly calm mind.
If there is really a legendary strongman here, he and Carlos should be exposed with the other party's super perception.
Now that they are not exposed, it means that there is no legendary strongman here.
However, although Roning's worries are a bit redundant, it is undeniable that the situation in Black Python City is beyond his expectations.
He thought of the scene of killing Natalia and others in Wubei Territory. The Wuhun tribe is like a zombie and is not afraid of ordinary sword damage.
If you want to kill them, either behead them to make them unable to move, or "inject" excessive magic power or fighting spirit into the other party's body, triggering the violent rush of elemental power and Wuhun power, so that the other party will kill them.
There are all ways to win, but it is obvious that the difficulty of the war has increased.
"No, I need to inform everyone about this matter in time."
Ronin signaled Carlos to take off, "Also, just in case, we have to let Redar come."
As the only Sun Knight, Redar's presence can give Ronin a full sense of security.
In the castle, Mephisto frowned slightly.
He seemed to sense a subtle energy fluctuation just now, but when he carefully sensed it, the fluctuation disappeared.
"Why leave?"
He rubbed his eyebrows. He had been busy for more than 20 days in a row. Even he was a little exhausted. Fortunately, everything was ready.
Mephisto had a faint smile on his lips, "Let me give the noble coalition of Wushan Territory a little shock!" (End of this chapter)
