Scene 324 The Mine Field in Jigokudani North
The northern valley entrance of Hell Valley.
The skeleton king Eric Moore, who is more than five meters tall, is covered with heavy keel armor, and is composed of skulls. He inserted the giant sword of the white bone in his hand into the ground and looked at the endless barbed wire in front of him.
Those small but tough wires blocked the scattered low-level undead's way south. Low-level undead with little intelligence could not understand why these wires were so continuous that they could not find any gaps to pass through.
When they have not felt the breath of the living, their intelligence is not enough to act to cut off the wire mesh.
So at this time, the skeleton king Eric Moore could see three or four layers of aimless skeleton soldiers piled up in front of the barbed wire.
The skeleton king Eric Moore ordered the knights who believed in humans beside him, "Cleaning it."
The young believer knight nodded slightly and rushed up with his cavalry. With one charge, he defeated the skeleton soldiers.
The undead who is reincarnated by non-believers always regards it as heresy, and a conflict will break out after seeing it.
Even the Lingdong Alliance, which collectively announced that it would be put into the arms of the Holy Church, the undead of the Holy Church did not look very good.
The skeleton king Eric Moore also had the same attitude. If it weren't for the blood priest Gloria who is currently in alliance with him, he wouldn't be willing to cooperate with those guys.
Fortunately, at least I don’t have to see those guys around me.
Soon, the skeleton soldiers wandering in front of the barbed wire were cleaned up, and the skeleton king Eric Moore raised his hand and waved it: "Go forward!"
Generally speaking, the vanguard of the undead army is always the low-level undead with cannon fodder status, but this time it is different. No army needs those low-level undead cannon fodder to consume.
In order to better destroy the barbed wire, the knight who pioneered the way ahead of the army was the human believer with fighting spirit.
The blades with dark energy attached to the hands of the believers' knights easily cut off the barbed wire, opening up a passage for the subsequent army of undead.
After removing three barbed wire mesh positions that were 100 meters apart in a row, a flat valley was exposed. It was necessary to move a little closer to see the new barbed wire mesh positions.
Human believers walked in the valley without any warning, talking and laughing at each other, completely unaware that they were walking towards danger.
"It's strange that the ground here seems to have been plowed."
The believer knight who was walking in the front strangely crushed the soil on the ground with leather boots. It was very soft and definitely not what he should have in the wild.
Looking at the stones next to them, there are also signs of being turned over.
"What do those Chinese want to do? Do you want to farm here?"
The believer Knight remembers that due to heavy rains all year round, the ground was almost covered with rocks, and there were very few soils. In other words, the north of the valley was better. Although it was a bit barren, it could at least be cultivated.
Indeed, the situation in Hell Valley cannot support much population. The Holy Duze Empire is not much better due to years of war. There is no problem in reclaiming some land for cultivation, but why should it be abandoned?
Just when the believer knight was puzzled, he felt a hard object stepping on his feet.
It was clearly plowed land, but there were still such a large stone buried under it. Those pagans were really lazy!
As his feet left the ground, the believer knight heard a faint "ding" sound coming from the position of the stone just now.
Subconsciously turning back, the believer knight saw a shocking scene - a short and thick iron pillar jumped from the place he had just stepped on to the height of his waist, and then exploded with a "boom".
Ships splashed everywhere, and the believer Knight and a unlucky companion beside him covered his face in pain and fell to the ground.
The power of jumping into thunder is not very great. The believer knight is lucky. The splashed shrapnel cannot penetrate his armor, and the ones hitting the face do not hit the vital point. Finally, they were not killed directly.
But misfortune never came singularly. The believer knight who fell to the ground felt that he seemed to hear a "ding" sound when he fell to the ground, but this time the sound was even more dull, and the position was also...under his shoulders.
Thanks to the equipment department for lowering the mine's trigger pressure to adapt to the weight of the undead. With a loud "boom", half of the body of the believer's knight was blown into the sky.
This is obviously another kind of landmine.
"Be careful! Be careful! We are attacked! Formation!"
There is no need to remind you that when you see the tragic encounter of the believer knight, the knights who have experienced the battle formation quickly reacted and began to form the formation.
The dense formation is the first choice after an attack in the age of cold weapons. Even Anglia, where magic is prevalent, is the same. The collective defense that helps each other can provide additional superimposed anti-magic characteristics.
But the knights didn't know that their absolutely correct response in Anglia became a death talisman that pushed them to death.
Repeated explosions sounded at their feet, and people kept falling down.
The dense explosion made the knights even more worried because they did not see the target attacking their own. They subconsciously thought that the enemy was hiding in a certain corner to conduct a ranged attack. So, with rich experience, they quickly added S-shaped dodging skills to their running movements.
There is no doubt that they have taken another step forward on the road to death.
It was too late when the knights discovered that the attack came from the underground. They had lost two-thirds of their manpower, and now they were running too deep into the minefield because of panic!
So the knights could only wait helplessly, waiting for their companions behind them to drive away a group of cannon fodder skeleton soldiers to come and rush to the thunder.
Although they are also undeads who were reincarnated as human believers, the lowest-level skeleton soldiers obviously will not receive any respect.
This is also the reason why all the human classes of the Eternal Holy Sect are crazy about improving their strength. Only those with strong strength during their lifetimes are more likely to become high-level undead after death. And those ordinary people with no talent can only become the lowest-level skeleton soldiers and corpse ghosts, and will be looked down upon forever.
This chain of contempt in the Eternal Holy Church can easily give birth to a large number of strong people, but it also makes the entire society very prone to imbalance. Farmers, handicraftsmen, merchants, etc. are all despised targets, which greatly limits the number of people in these essential auxiliary professions, making it difficult for the undead to obtain the logistics equipment they deserve.
The skeleton soldiers passed through the minefield intact. Just as the knights breathed a sigh of relief and walked back, another landmine was detonated!
