  Chapter 1538 1525. Go! moyunling

  There is a huge flat roof on the top of the cliff on the east side of the Dake Valley, which is now included in the military control area of ​​the West Route Army, and the entire cliff top is surrounded by dense forests.

  Many people in Dake Valley know that the monster army of the West Route Army is stationed in this mountain.

   Those huge red ants dug countless burrows on the hillside. The outermost part of this area was surrounded by wire fences, and there were warning signs every ten meters to dissuade unsuspecting outsiders from entering this mountain.

  After the cavalry regiment successfully returned to Dak Valley, the number of military guards patrolling this area doubled.

   There are some unfounded rumors circulating in the valley camp. It is said that a certain demon hunter sneaked into this mountain secretly, so far there is no news.

  The hillside is full of tall trees, and the trees are crowded with weeds, vines, bracken and bushes. It is extremely difficult to cut a road from this steep hillside.

Every morning, a large number of corpses of evil spirits will be transported to the foot of the mountain. In the valley, two merchant groups signed a supply contract with the cavalry regiment of the West Route Army. They are responsible for transporting some corpses of evil spirits back from the high ground. The ghost corpses are almost all food for the ghost-striped red ants hiding in this mountain.

   It’s just that few people know that apart from an army of ghost-striped red ants stationed in this mountain, there actually lives on the top of the mountain an undead warlock Ms. Naomi who is unwilling to contact the outside world.

The stiffness of her whole body has exceeded 70%, and the joints in many parts are completely hardened. Only the thighs, arms, and cervical spine can barely move. She can not blink for a long time, and she doesn't like to talk very much. Now She even gave up using the magic engraving pen, but what is amazing is that she can still draw magic patterns on the abomination.

  Because the skeleton who was by her side was able to hold a magic engraving pen in his hand. According to Naomi's instructions, he squatted on the body of the abomination and drew a series of magic patterns on his rotten skin.

   What made Suldak a little puzzled was how this skeleton possessed mana, and how it could squat on the abomination's body to draw magic runes.

   It is said that after Naomi and the skeleton warrior reached a magic contract, Naomi was able to attach the consciousness to the skeleton warrior, and the skeleton warrior continued to input mana, so the skeleton warrior could draw magic runes.

  Skeleton warriors don't have a sense of smell yet, so naturally they won't smell the disgusting stench of the abomination.

  Looking at the skeleton that seemed a bit ignorant for the time being, Suldak felt that giving him a sword and shield would give him some momentum.

  The body is becoming more and more like a zombie. In fact, for Naomi, this kind of life is somewhat inconvenient, even painful.

  She even hoped that her life would come to an end soon, and then she could change to another life form and continue to 'live' with the skeleton in front of her.

  But the reason why Naomi has been reluctant to take the last step is also very simple. She is worried that if she stays in this world after her death, she will be easily wiped out completely.

  The current situation is actually similar to death.

  Naomi's daily life is actually very simple. She couldn't eat anything a long time ago. She usually just drinks a little potion made by herself, and occasionally needs to perform some daily maintenance on her ossified body.

She and the skeleton sew abominations on the corpses of the ghost warriors every day, and then draw some runes on them, and inject the soul fire extracted from the ghosts into the abominations, giving them another form s life.

  Naomi and the skeleton warrior usually live on the top of the mountain next to the cliff on the east side of the valley, and they usually sew abominations every day.

After more than two months, a combat squadron of sixty abominations has been formed. This time, Suldak led the West Route Army to advance into the Moyunling Highlands. Naomi's abomination army will also accompany him. , they are the best cannon fodder for the evil ghost army on the battlefield.

  …

  The magician combat group of the West Route Army was successfully formed. Now this combat group has annexed the former magician investigation group, and currently has 337 magicians.

   That is to say, Suldak's speech actually summoned 306 magicians.

  Although the level of strength of these magicians is uneven, at least they can control the magic bag, and each of them has the flying tool of the magic scorpion in their hands.

However, these magicians who were originally the backbone members of the adventure groups joined the magician battle group of the West Route Army, which is bound to have a great impact on these adventure groups. The role of a magician in the adventure group is still quite large .

  Considering that these adventure groups would suffer some losses, Suldak issued a letter to these adventure groups. Any adventure group with a magician joining the West Route Army would receive the priority treatment privilege of the West Route Army medical team.

   This compensation alone made some adventure groups with magicians stationed in the valley cheer.

   In addition, Suldak also agreed that he would give these adventure groups some convenient conditions for hunting in the Moyunling Highlands, such as being able to follow behind the West Route Army to hunt for evil spirits who are alone or fleeing.

   It’s just that the news quickly spread throughout the valley. At the same time, all the adventure groups in the valley seemed eager to try after hearing the news...

  …

  In this way, the West Route Army had just entered the first week of September in the Green Empire, and the heavy armored infantry regiments began to leave the barracks one after another, marching towards the Moyunling Highland in mighty fashion.

Due to the large number of troops, taking only one mountain path will stretch the team very long, so these nearly a hundred heavy armored infantry regiments are scattered in the complex mountain paths at the southern foot of Moyunling, and almost every mountain path has heavy armored infantry Warrior silhouette.

Of course, the 70,000 Ghost Pattern Soldiers and Naomi's Abomination Squadron were also in the team, but they and the heavy armored infantry regiment just happened to stagger their travel time, and they came out day and night every day, so as to avoid those who followed the army. People in the adventure group and business group panicked when they saw those ugly monsters.

   More than a thousand adventure groups followed behind the army when the West Route Army set off. This was not the first time for Suldak.

   In addition, there are more than 20 large-scale business groups starting from Dak Valley, and their convoys cover almost all kinds of materials needed by the legion.

  The reason why these business groups can develop is actually due to some reasons from the logistics department of the Bena Army...

  The reason is that the officials of the Bena military department discovered a rather outrageous thing two months ago:

The material supply department of the logistics department is usually responsible for transporting various supplies to the West Route Army. The supply team has to rent more than 300 four-wheeled carriages to transport the materials from Handanar City to the Dake Valley in Moyunling. This transportation process is actually It is very troublesome for the logistics department to coordinate a large number of four-wheeled trucks and manpower.

  Once by chance, because of the arrival of the rainy season, the team got stuck in the endless muddy road on the big meadow.

  The materials could not be delivered to the barracks of the West Route Army as scheduled, and the delivery date of the materials was about to pass. Once the delivery date was delayed, the military department would punish the logistics department severely.

  Especially, the West Route Army has been victorious recently and has attracted the attention of the noble lords of Handanal City. Once the report is sent to the desk of Duke Newman, the chief of the logistics department may really be dismissed from his post.

At that time, a person in charge of the logistics department thought of a way. He took a bag of gold coins and rushed directly to Dak Valley, and then purchased all the materials that needed to be delivered on time from the business group in the valley, and sent them directly to the West Route Army. in the barracks.

   To the surprise of the person in charge, not only did the business group have sufficient stock, but the price of such materials was even much cheaper than their bulk purchase price in Handanal City.

At that time, the person in charge was a little confused. We obviously purchased in Handanal City, and we had to rent a four-wheeled carriage to transport it to the northern battlefield of Handanal County hundreds of kilometers away. The cost of renting a car and hiring a coachman It is a huge investment, how come the materials purchased in Handanal City are more expensive than the materials sold by the Dark Valley Merchant Group?

   This is a bit outrageous, and a price list was sent to the military department.

But then some nobles revealed that the noble lords of Handanal City controlled the market in the city and raised the prices of all supplies, but those deals had already been concluded, and even if all the scandals were revealed now, the losses would not be too great. redeem.

  Beina's military department also suspended the transaction with the noble lord of Handanal City, and then only sent a clerk with gold coins in the Dak Valley, and then purchased most of the supplies from the business houses in the valley.

  Since the logistics department of Bena’s military department began to purchase various military supplies from local business groups, the prices of various living materials in Handanar City have dropped by nearly 10%.

  Now that the West Route Army is marching into the Moyunling Highlands, the business group is actually the first to hear the news, and follow behind the legion with a large amount of supplies, trying to reach more deals with the West Route Army.

  In this way, if the soldiers in the army have any needs for daily items, they can buy them and use them anytime, which is very convenient.

Due to the large number of competitors, the prices of these twenty or so business groups have basically become transparent. Basically, the goods are shipped long distances from Epsom City. The basic price plus shipping costs, loss and meager profits are these materials s price.

  Although these business groups cannot be regarded as military business groups, their current role is no different from military business groups.

  …

  Every night when the sky is completely dark, the ghost pattern soldier ants and the abominations will climb out of the temporary burrow on the hillside and head towards the Moyunling Highland along the rugged mountain road.

  The druids commanded nearly 70,000 ghost-striped soldiers and ants to rush all the way.

  The ant cavalry regiment was also divided into two teams, one on each side and the back of the team, to prevent some ghost pattern soldiers from falling behind.

  As the new force of the West Route Army, Naomi's abominations once again joined the army. In fact, Naomi is also very clear that these abominations may become the first batch of the West Route Army to fall when they go to the frontal battlefield.

  Even if Naomi is on the march, every day when she rests in the crypt during the day, she will tirelessly stitch up new abominations.

   I hate this thing, except that it exudes a strong stench, like a huge dung tank, and there is nothing wrong with it.

  …

  In the Battle of Beishan Pass, Andrew's reckless battle caused him to lose his position as the head of the Constructed Knights. He was originally recruited by Suldak to be the captain of the logistics group as a miscellaneous soldier.

  Before the expedition, Wolf Knight Tiger proposed to Suldak whether he could resume Andrew's post during the war phase?

Thinking that the next battle is bound to be extremely cruel, it is a battle for survival between humans and evil spirits. There will be no prisoners on the battlefield. Once the soldiers of the West Route Army are killed, they will inevitably become the rations of these evil spirits , and the evil spirits will be beheaded immediately if they fall on the battlefield.

  Considering the cruelty of the war, Suldak agreed to Andrew's return to the Constructed Knights, but currently he is just an ordinary knight in the Constructed Knights.

  This time the West Route Army entered the Moyunling Highlands, and there was also a lord army stationed in the Dake Valley.

  Suldak arranged for the lord army of the Ludwild family this time, and Viscount Price, the younger brother of Councilor McMillan, served as the chief of defense of the Dark Valley.

  The main army of the West Route Army left the Dak Valley, and a large number of adventure groups and caravans also left at the same time.

  Now the entire valley has become empty, leaving a large number of vacant wooden houses, and the commercial streets in the valley have lost their former prosperity.

  There are only a few shopkeepers staying here sitting at the gate basking in the sun. Even if some customers walk into the shop, they will find that many of the containers in the house have been emptied, and there are only some goods left in the shop.

  Even the shop guys are getting lazy...

   It was the densely packed magic bed crossbows on the north city wall of Dak Valley that made the people in the valley feel inexplicably at ease.

  …

  The vanguard of the West Route Army crossed the many mountain roads at the southern foot of Moyunling and arrived at the highland of Moyunling smoothly. They almost relied on their legs to advance this way.

  Almost the whole journey was on hillside roads. These roads are not difficult to walk, but they still walked for nearly a week.

Walking in the front was the 17th Heavy Armored Infantry Regiment of the West Route Army. When they turned over the last mountain pass and saw the flat plateau in front of them, almost all the heavy armored soldiers became excited. forward running speed.

  The sound of cheering waves soon infected the teams behind.

   And these heavy armored infantry regiments who arrived at the Moyunling Highland first quickly set up water stations at the mountain pass to provide drinking water for the soldiers who arrived at the Moyunling Highland one after another.

  Some people started to set up big iron pots and started boiling water to cook porridge.

  A group of infantry soldiers followed their regiment leader, divided some square areas with white stone powder according to the magic parchment map, and wrote the numbers of each infantry regiment in these areas.

  Because this is the southern exit of Moyunling Highland, the evil spirits nearby were almost completely captured by the adventure group, so this area is relatively safe.

  Suldak plans to spend the first night at the foot of the mountain pass on the south side on the first night when the West Route Army entered Moyunling.
