Chapter 479: On the Eve of War
In the palace.
He asked the Dark Knight for information about their current enemies.
In his opinion, with the strength of the dragon army, it would not be a problem to deal with the Dark Knight’s enemies.
After all, if even the dragon army was no match for them.
Then the death knights would not be able to resist such a terrifying enemy!
He should have been eliminated by the enemy long ago.
But even so, it was still necessary to understand it.
Only by understanding the enemy more could one make a correct judgment.
Although Joelson often appeared to be very arrogant.
But in fact, he was not a very arrogant person.
The reason why he appeared to be arrogant was simply that his strength was strong enough that he did not need to put those enemies in his eyes.
However, he had just entered the Underworld and did not understand anything.
He still needed to understand more.
Especially the information about his enemies!
The Dark Knight said respectfully, “Master, besides us, there are two other forces around us.”
“One is the twin-headed ogre clan, and the other is the skeleton clan.”
“Our main enemy right now is the skeleton clan.”
“We’ve been fighting against them for several years now.”
“The king of the skeleton clan is a peak god expert, known as the Death Spirit King.”
“Previously, the skeleton clan didn’t put us in their eyes. Otherwise, we wouldn’t have been able to wait until now.”
“However, after Hades became a demigod, the Death Spirit King of the skeleton clan has clearly noticed us, treating us as their number one enemy!”
“Our main enemy right now is the Death Spirit King, and the army of skeletons he leads.”
“As for the twin-headed ogre, they don’t have much of a conflict with us.”
After hearing the Dark Knight’s words.
Joelson asked, “What is the power of the Death Spirit King?”
“Peak god level!” the Dark Knight said.
Joelson nodded, a thoughtful look on his face.
A peak-stage god expert wouldn’t pose much of a threat.
Even Du Lu alone would be able to defeat a peak-stage god Death Spirit King.
Not to mention the giant dragon army and highgod Godfrey.
Dealing with the Death Spirit King and his skeleton army would definitely not be a problem.
The Dark Knight continued, “The skeletons of the Underworld are extremely hard to deal with.”
“They are of the same level. Although they are not very powerful, the skeleton race has a very terrifying characteristic.”
“That is, they can be resurrected!”
“As long as their souls are not destroyed, even if their skeletons are completely shattered, they can be resurrected!”
“This is also the most troublesome part about them!”
Joelson did not care too much about this.
An ordinary undead army might be very difficult to deal with, a skeleton army with the ability to revive.
But for the giant dragons, it was very simple.
Under the dragon’s breath, whether it was bones or souls, they would all be destroyed!
“When can we start the war?”
Joelson asked.
For him, the most important thing was to finish off the skeleton army as soon as possible so that the undead army would have time to search for clues about the death artifact.
This was also the reason why he had summoned all the dragons.
The Dark Knight said, “Anytime.”
Joelson no longer hesitated and prepared to summon the dragons to start a war.
At this moment.
Outside the palace, a series of dragon roars suddenly sounded.
“Roar!”
“Roar!”
One dragon roar after another sounded.
Then, there was a commotion.
But very quickly, the dragon roars and the commotion calmed down.
An undead ran into the palace.
He walked to the center of the palace, knelt down on one knee and said respectfully,
“My king, there are people from the skeleton race outside.”
“They have already been eliminated by the Great Dragon Lords. There’s only one left now.”
Hearing the undead’s words.
The Dark Knight said directly, “Kill them.”
He had nothing to hesitate about.
The skeleton clan would often send spies to their territory. In the beginning, they would capture them alive for interrogation, but now, they were being executed on the spot.
They would also send the undead to scout for information about the skeleton clan.
This was nothing strange.
However, at this time.
Joelson spoke.
“There’s no rush. Bring that one alive first.”
Normally, when the dragons attacked, they would not specifically leave one alive.
There was only one possibility, and that was that the living skeleton was very strong and could survive a move from the dragons.
Soon.
A skeleton wearing a tattered black robe was brought into the palace.
Upon seeing this person, the Dark Knight couldn’t help but stand up.
“Skeleton mage?”
Joelson glanced at the skeleton.
It was exactly as he had imagined.
This skeleton mage’s power had already reached the peak of the demigod level.
It wasn’t strange for him to be able to survive a casual attack from the dragons.
Then, Joelson looked at the Dark Knight.
The Dark Knight explained, “Master, the skeleton mage is a high-level skeleton under the Death Spirit King. We have never captured a skeleton mage alive before!”
“He must know a lot!”
Hearing this, everyone looked at the skeleton mage.
The skeleton mage was not afraid of the crowd’s gaze.
He snorted and said, “Don’t expect me to tell you anything. If you want to kill, kill!”
“In any case, I’m already a dead man!”
Joelson couldn’t help but find it amusing, but what the skeleton mage had said wasn’t wrong.
Indeed, he had been a dead man for a long time.
However, Joelson had no intention of sending him a message.
Godfrey immediately rose from his seat.
Step by step, he walked towards the skeleton mage.
Upon seeing Godfrey, the soul flames in the skeleton mage’s eyes couldn’t help but tremble.
“A highgod?”
How could there be a highgod in the camp of the death knights?
His reinforcements weren’t just dragons?
The skeleton mage, who had been very calm just a moment ago, immediately began to panic.
Breaking free from the undead guards, he turned and flew out of the palace.
However…
Godfrey waved his hand, and the skeleton mage fell from the sky.
Then, Godfrey pressed one hand on the skull of the skeleton.
A blood-red light drilled into the skull’s mind from Godfrey’s hand.
The skeleton mage immediately cried out in pain.
The wail echoed in the palace.
After a long time.
The wail of the skeleton wizard gradually turned into a weak whimper.
Godfrey waved his hand, and the skeleton wizard’s skeleton body turned into ashes and disappeared from the palace.
“Master, I have obtained all of his memories.”
Godfrey looked at Joelson and said respectfully,
“In order to deal with us, the Death Spirit King has successfully formed an alliance with the Twin-Headed Ogre King, and he seems to be looking for something.”
“Something that can change the situation.”
