Chapter 203: Honor (Part 2)
"Follow me to advance, for the honor of the soldiers." The general took back his sword and took a cross gun from his personal soldiers. The officers were dejected and led their own teams to follow the general's main force.
A total of seven thousand soldiers were divided into seven parts, with three thousand people in the front and various weapons, while the four thousand people in the back were not even criticized.
A team of thousands of people blocked by the skeletons had completely disintegrated. The soldiers who were put on both wings did not cause too much damage to the skeletons. Both sides had the power of three thousand people. If Salin's soldiers were humans, they would suffer a great loss. However, these skeletons ignored the attacks around them and killed them all the way, only falling down hundreds of white bones on both sides. These fallen skeletons had basically cut off their heads, and the soul fire in their eyes flashed a few times and then suddenly disappeared.
They were not completely dead, but returned to the undead plane.
At this time, Daniel barely restrained his position, stopped the Skeleton Gate, turned around and killed him. He had only one chance to sprint, because the remaining seven thousand soldiers on the other side had gathered together and were about to launch an offensive. There were nearly two thousand soldiers behind him, isolated from the barbarian warriors. If he didn't kill him back, Daniel would be attacked on both sides. Although he could run away, he would definitely be in a very embarrassing state.
The enemy fell more than 1,200, and the skeleton lost 600, and the battle loss ratio was one to two. If the battle loss ratio was one to one, the enemy was a fool and could be defeated like this when facing skeletons. Those fallen soldiers would never get up. The bone spear of the skeleton was poisonous. The bone spear was difficult to penetrate iron armor, but it could pierce the leather armor. As long as the wound was cut, it would be fine.
The skeleton toxin is not strong, and the water of repair can be used to heal it, but the enemy has no time to heal the wounded soldiers. If these wounded soldiers are not treated, they will not be able to save them for more than six hours.
The most important reason why Daniel can survive until now is that he is timid and calm enough. Faced with the pursuit of the Holy See, he can escape tens of thousands of miles, which shows how resilience this person is. So he has a firm command of the skeleton to turn around and kill him, and does not even look at the large army behind him chasing him.
In the temple, Salin waited for the return of the three kings. The three guys didn't even have the strength to turn into skeletons, and all lay on the first floor of the temple in their original form. Fortunately, the temple was built large enough, and even creatures that were larger than their size could be accommodated.
Salin and Aini both visited the Three Kings. After all, these three guys were the two of their most powerful thugs. But they didn't expect that the battle would be so intense this time, and the bones on the Three Kings were more than half cracked, and they almost couldn't fight.
"How could this happen!" Salin looked at the injuries on Banchagana's body and was a little surprised. Did he know Banchagana's strength. Whether it is long attack or melee, this guy is an absolute strong man. Isn't the other side only one magician?
Judy Koko was depressed, how could this happen? It was not caused by your contract trap. Now his strength is actually the strength of the eighth level undead. If he is in the undead plane, he is not considered a number one person. Although the enemy is a level seven magician, it is not calculated so much between levels. The magician's lethality cannot be estimated at all.
If there were no scepter left by Shang Lan, the result of this battle would be hard to say.
"Where are those five guys?" Although Enni was also concerned about Judy Koko's injury, he was even more worried about the other party's magician. He couldn't deal with it now. If he came to the door, he could only run as far as possible.
"Die, no one escaped." Judykoko replied weakly.
Eni then breathed a sigh of relief. Although the enemy still has many level 5 magicians, it no longer poses any threat to him. Salin and himself have a combat power far exceeding that of ordinary mages of the same level.
"Sarin, in my opinion, the enemy has so many magicians, and the number is a bit wrong. It would be fine if it was a low-level magician, but there were more than ten great magicians in the enemy."
Salin was also confused. Generally speaking, the army is full of low-level mages, and the number of great magicians will not be too many, and a flag regiment will definitely not be assigned one. Even Qin Yin's army will not arrange so many great magicians. How could these East China Sea countries' armies have such advanced configurations?
There are up to 20,000 people on the enemy's twelve boats, half of which should be auxiliary soldiers. Those who escape to the ice are all regular soldiers. More than 10,000 regular soldiers are equipped with more than 20 major magicians, that is, there are two major magicians in the organization of a flag regiment, which is impossible.
"Forget it, I will leave a few prisoners behind and ask for information."
Salin talked to Aini, and Judy Koko looked up and said, "Aini, can you give us the soul on the battlefield?"
Aini didn't say anything, he looked at Salin. Salin frowned and asked, "Judicoko, what do you want those souls?"
"The three of us were too seriously injured and needed treatment."
"Isn't it enough to let Daniel help you?" Salin didn't want these three kings to devour the souls, which made him feel a little uncomfortable. Killing the enemy is one thing, and destroying the souls is another thing.
Judy Coco sighed, "That magician is so powerful that we have suffered almost irreversible damage. If Daniel had helped us, he would probably not be able to do anything else within a few years."
"How could this happen? Daniel has fixed coordinates." Eni also didn't understand. He could feel that Judy Koko did not lie this time, but just something was hidden from him.
"The law of the undead is also one of the laws of the plane. In fact..." Judy Koko hesitated for a moment, thinking that it would be a matter of time before the two of them advanced to the magicians, and there was no need to hide it from them.
"In fact, this is the same as elemental balance. When we devour souls to repair injuries in the undead plane, most of the souls will be wasted, and will become energy again, and return to the plane itself. This is the same as elemental dispersion. In your plane, magic equipment must be repaired. Unless it is a magical tool, no matter how good a piece of equipment is, it will gradually lose its effect. Because elements will be emitted from the equipment, making the world balance. Only things obtained from other planes will be close to zero."
Salin felt aroused in his heart and asked, "Why doesn't the artifact destroy itself?"
"Because the magical artifact can cross planes, it is no longer something unique to a certain plane." Judykoko could only patiently answer such an idiotic question.
Salin suddenly understood why the magicians on Srieg Island were moved by the fire element elves. The fire element elves actually do not belong to the Meers continent plane. Equipment made with this fire element elves also has the attributes of artifacts and will not be damaged. The energy contained in the fire element elves itself is extremely terrifying, reaching the power of a semi-artifact. A semi-artifact that does not require repair is no longer different from a magical tool.
"So, if you devour these souls, will the energy of these souls not scatter in the plane of the Meers continent?" Salin asked a key question.
"This is a question of energy replacement. The damage we suffer is itself an energy. Only by obtaining compensation in this plane is the safest way of treatment." Judy Koko's answer this time was not so detailed, but Salin could already understand it clearly.
The light element and the dark element will not cancel each other out, but will instead convert each other. This is the truth that every magician understands. Although in detail, Judy Koko's problem will be much more complicated, the basic truth is the same.
Salin did not make things difficult for Judy Koko, he just asked: "What will happen to these souls in the end if you don't devour these souls?"
"Most of them will escape and return to the most primitive form of life and nothingness. Some will be retained for a period of time in a special situation, and the length of the retention time is determined by the strength of these souls."
"Diabinas, is that true?" Salin asked the most honest Diabinas if Judikoko said.
"Yes, Lord Salin." Diabinas replied respectfully.
Seeing that Salin was still pondering, Judy Koko said: "Sir, the soul problem is very complicated, and the three of us may not be able to explain it accurately. However, in the undead plane, take the skeleton as an example. After a skeleton is born, its lifespan is only about ten years. If there is no evolution within these ten years, the skeleton will die and become pure energy. We devour the soul, and we do not completely eliminate it. We do not have this ability. The origin of the soul should be eternal. What is dying is only consciousness, but the imprint of the soul itself."
Salin smiled and said, "Ani, what do you think?"
"Just promise them." Aini was worried that without the three kings, his safety would not be guaranteed. As for the devouring of souls, he was not disgusted. Judykoko was right, the soul would die sooner or later, and those people had already died in battle. Even if the id in the soul had not yet disappeared, he was no longer a 'person'.
"Then it depends on you." Salin smiled and thought to himself, isn't the most important thing for a person to be the self? All morality is something based on the self.
Judy Koko secretly complained that Salin is cunning. What does it mean to rely on you? It's not just shirking responsibility. If someone asks you in the future, you will have an attitude that is not your business.
Time passed minute by minute, and no flying puppets came back on the front line. Salin was not in a hurry. He waited until midnight before he received the news from Kridian. The enemy was destroyed, and only more than a hundred prisoners were captured, and the rest were all dead.
Aini couldn't hide his shock. That was more than 10,000 enemies!
"Let's go and have a look." Salin asked all the waiting people to rest, and only brought Zola and Shika and Aini to the harbor. A huge hole appeared on the ice layer on the front of the harbor, and several meters of ice disappeared, revealing the sea water inside. The captive was taken to Salin. Salin noticed that not only the captain's eyes were full of fear, but also the eyes of the soldiers under his command were extremely awe.
