Chapter 403 Regret for a Lifetime
"any solution?"
Rody raised his head abruptly, and loosened his clenched fists slightly, "Can I use it now?"
"Remember me...I mentioned it to you—" Akasha said while turning her head to look at Knight Wellington.
Knowing what she meant, Rody waved his hand and said, "There's nothing you can't say."
"It's... the spells about controlling the undead that I found in Elson City."
Her words made Wellington's eyes widen, and at the same time made the dying undead look up playfully.
"I could try, but I don't know if it will work."
"What do I need to do?"
Rody agreed to the decision without saying a word, and then looked around, "Do you need me to light the torch?"
"I don't need anything, just fix him, maybe I need a while to try."
Her gaze turned to Knight Wellington, "No one can tell about this, okay?"
"I swear by the name of the knight to keep this secret forever."
Although "undead spell" is synonymous with "evil" and "horror" in the eyes of human beings, Wellington never felt that the "type" of the spell would represent the "stance", just like the sword in the hands of a warrior, and the consequences will always be just The person using it, not the weapon itself.
Rody immediately took the rope and tied the undead tightly. In fact, the other party had no resistance, and it was even difficult to speak at this time. The Knights of Wellington dispersed the jailers in the dungeon and completely isolated the area. After everything was ready, Akasha raised her palm and whispered a sentence of incantations that originally belonged to the category of "arcana".
Rody stood in the shadows and stared closely at the struggling undead, but after waiting for nearly ten minutes, Akasha still made no progress.
In the entire spell system, currently only the most advanced "mind control" of the shadow system can achieve the effect of "controlling consciousness". He was beaten into a useless person, but his will to resist was so strong that it was difficult for her to achieve the goal of "control" through mental suppression.
The dark dungeon wasn't hot, but Akasha's forehead had a fine layer of sweat, as if she was patiently deciphering a code that was changing every moment. She tried time and time again to combine spells and arcane elements. Accept all failures without flinching.
She understands that spellcasting is not afraid of failure, as long as it succeeds once, that's enough.
Roddy and Wellington held their breaths and dared not speak out, for fear of causing pressure on her. An hour later, a soldier came outside the dungeon to report.
"Lord Rody, the message from Knight Titus... From last night until now, the city of Houllier has been completely sealed off, and no one has left."
Not leaving the record does not mean that the enemy must still be in the city. Rody frowned and asked, "What news is there from the Duke?"
"The master has already heard the news, and he hopes that you will come over as soon as possible."
"knew."
Turning around and walking back to the dungeon, he watched the dim lights flickering again and again in Akasha's hand, took a deep breath, and silently leaned against the stone wall of the dungeon.
Sally's mind is full of the scenes that Sally used to get along with her... At the border, in the Forest of Whispering Whispers, in the Duke's Mansion, in the monastery, and in the temple, all her words echoed in his ears, making Roddy extremely worried and incomparable pain.
It is not an exaggeration to say that the feeling at this time is "a second feels like a year", and an hour and a half later, just when Roddy almost gave up hope, Akasha's attempt finally made progress...
The light cast by the fingertips condensed on the forehead of the undead, and after being injected suddenly, it was not repelled as before, but was maintained by Akasha's teeth, and squeezed into the other's head bit by bit, inch by inch.
The next moment, the writhing undead seemed to be struck by lightning, and stopped moving instantly, then collapsed on the torture rack.
"hoo hoo"
Akasha's chest rose and fell, and she reached out to wipe off the sweat on her forehead. Although her face was pale due to overdrawn mana, there was a little excitement on her face—
"It worked."
Luo Di hurriedly supported her and sat aside, but Akasha was unwilling to waste time, and said to Luo Di: "I can't completely control his consciousness, I can only... let him answer all the questions truthfully, and I can't maintain It's been too long, you have to ask quickly."
Akasha did not achieve "mind control" at this time, and the level at this time could only be "spiritual erosion", so the eyes of this undead were extremely dull, as if he had been beaten stupid.
"Okay." Rody turned his head and immediately asked, "What plans do you have in Houlier City? Where is Sally?"
Hearing Roddy's question, the undead slowly raised his head, and replied mechanically: "Lord Wembsk is in charge of spreading the second stage of the plague in Houlier City, and the plague in the first stage has infected Houlier City enough If there are too many humans, all you need to do is spread the inducing potion, and this place will become a dead city."
After a few seconds, he continued in a calm voice: "Master Wenbuske only arranged for the assassination. I don't know where Sally is now."
The information revealed by the other party far exceeded Rody's expectations. He stared at the other party with wide eyes and asked, "The second stage? Plague?"
Just as he was talking, a new prompt popped up in the [Task Bar], and the second step of the previous [Judgment of the Throne of Bones] was immediately displayed as completed, and the task immediately rewarded "300,000 experience" and the title of "Undead Slayer".
But Luo Di was not interested at all to see what the function of this title was. He turned to the third step of the task page that was triggered, and found that the font on it was still "Orange
"Mission description: You have found out the exact cause of the plague. The people of Karen Kingdom are threatened by the plague. Please stop this from happening as soon as possible."
"Conditions for completing the mission: Stop the outbreak of the plague in one place within fifteen days, and you will be considered to have completed the mission. Every time you stop one more place, the mission reward will increase."
"Mission reward: 1.4 million experience points, "Erondra's Long Sword" design drawing talent point l."
After hastily scanning the handwriting, Rody felt his spine tremble inexplicably. He raised his head and asked, "When will the inducing potion be spread? Where is it? What are the consequences?"
"Before noon, in the square of Houllier City. Once a human infected with the plague comes into contact with the inducing agent, he will die quickly and become a ghoul."
"sip"
His fist hit the wall next to him, and Roddy cursed in a low voice: "Damn it!"
At this time, he suddenly realized: the assassination of the undead assassins was only a step in their plan, and the spread of the "plague" had already begun. I am afraid that the moment they stepped into the city of Houllier, the city was already taken by more than half of the people. plague
Regardless of whether the assassination was successful or not yesterday, Houlier City will be under martial law today and the city gates will be closed. At this time, we will seize the opportunity to spread the inducing potion.
Because Roddy didn't have time to evacuate the people.
"I'll ask you again, who took Sally away last night?"
"I have no idea."
Hearing the other party's answer was still the same, Rody swung his sword and chopped off the other party's head, called Wellington and Akasha and walked out.
"What should we do now?"
"Call the team to attack the city square immediately. We must be ahead of the opponent." Rody's footsteps were fast, but his voice was a little stiff, "It seems... Sally's disappearance is not caused by the undead."
He gritted his teeth and said in a low voice: "But who else could have done this? Other nobles? Viper Cross? Or..."
Hearing "Viper Cross", Akasha was stunned for a moment, and said, "Why did Viper Cross look for her?"
"Because she took away the artifact that originally belonged to the Viper's Cross, which is a good reason, but I can't be sure if they did it."
After walking out of the dungeon, he jumped on the horse and turned to look at Akasha whose expression changed: "What? What do you know?"
"Yesterday... When we went to the Duke's Mansion together yesterday, I seemed to see someone who looked like a B cross, the bishop—"
Luo Di stopped suddenly, frowned and asked, "Can you confirm? Or can you tell who he looks like?"
"He looks like a bishop named Carl." Akasha recalled: "I met him about two years ago, but only from a distance. The other party definitely didn't know me.
"Karl...Karl...it must be him"
This name quickly emerged from Chaos Chao's memory, and immediately Rody clenched his fists
"Carl" is a well-known heretic that players talk about. He has the nickname "Secretary Chief" because although his position is a bishop, the actions he is responsible for are all those that are extremely confidential in "Viper Cross": including Spy on intelligence, assassinate, steal important information, and more.
And if Viper Cross really came to look for Sally, the reason must be because of the "Kiss of Viper" scepter. In this way, it is completely reasonable to send someone of the level of "Carl".
But then Rody's face became more and more ugly - if it was done by Cross B, then it would be easy for them to leave Houllier City, because they dug out the secret road in the Cambay area.
"Knight of Wellington, can you send someone to check a place in the Cambay area now? I know some clues, and I need to verify them immediately."
"no problem."
The ghost knight responded casually, and immediately sent someone to ride to the location designated by Rody, while he himself accelerated towards the school grounds, preparing to gather troops to fight.
But Rody, who was riding on the horse, was in a state of confusion: Sally didn't die here, which meant that the other party's purpose was just "hijacking". If he chased after her on a Kodak now, maybe he still had hope of finding her.
But the information revealed by the undead is even more worrying: the sun has risen for a long time at this time, and that "Wembsk" may have walked towards the city square with the "inducing potion". In a few hours, this city may become A sea of ghouls
After rushing into the Duke's mansion and pushing open the bedroom door, Rody quickly told the Duke everything he knew. This sudden crisis also moved Angmar.
Within two minutes, the soldiers who came from outside confirmed that there were traces of someone using the "secret passage", which further showed that the possibility of the heretics abducting Sally was more than 3.
The footsteps of the disaster are approaching every minute, and Sally is getting farther and farther away from Houllier City. However, at this moment, Rody is sitting in front of the Duke, rubbing his cheeks helplessly:
"No matter which one I choose, I may regret it for the rest of my life..."
