Chapter 352: The Last Survivor
After the Lord of Fear took his seat, the door to the room was closed. They only looked at each other, trying to guess what was going on from each other's expressions.
They dare not touch these precious foods. In Druchi society, poison can penetrate anywhere, and food is the most effective and cheapest way.
After seeing everyone seated, Kuran Blackhand said the first thing,
"The new ruler of Druchi must have enough determination and strength, otherwise he will not be able to be crowned the Witch King." "
This is as it should be. "Yes." On the left side of the obsidian table, a female fear lord expressed her approval, but the eyes that were observing her surroundings and her highly tense body showed that she was ready for battle.
Kuran nodded after receiving the reply. No one knew what he was thinking, whether he was planning to welcome the new king to the throne, or setting a trap to execute several people, waiting for Malekith's return.
"This room has been sealed. Only the last living person can leave. If one of you is alive, then the next thing has nothing to do with me." Ignoring the disbelief in Lord Fear's eyes, Kuran continued
,
" But if this person is me and I live alone, Naggaroth needs to remain as is and wait for Malekith's return."
These words made the fear lord stand up and curse, pointing at Kuran next to the throne,
"What do you have? The qualification determines the position of the Witch King, and he is just a dog of Malekith!" "
Malekis is undoubtedly a loser. Thousands of years of history have shown that he cannot let Drucci complete his revenge. It is time to replace him with someone who can. The leader who leads Druchi back to Ulthuan."
"Could this person be you? You are just a dog tamed by Hagrid Graves, and he is full of the smell of mine bugs." The fear
lords started to talk among themselves . He cursed, not only to Kuran, but also to Malekith, and even to each other. This scene has been going on between Druzi for countless hours.
Koculan did not intend to let them stay in this place that symbolized the throne for too long. He slowly walked towards the shadow next to the throne. The scarlet death was waiting for the master to use it and drink the blood of these traitors.
Waves of screams emerged from the room, but the sound was not transmitted out of this room specially built by Malekith. All the Black Guards were waiting for their fate.
Whether to serve a new master or follow the captain Kuran Blackhand's choice, he has always been waiting for Malekith's return.
And soon, they will get the answer.
An hour later, the black door reopened. Kuran Blackhand's body was covered in blood and debris, but there was only a wound on his face, indicating that the blood and debris were just trophies.
"Everyone is dispatched immediately to execute the families and supporters of these traitors!"
Kuran gave the order, and immediately had the black door closed again, and through the tiny cracks, several bodies could be seen chopped into pieces. The broken corpses and the blood scattered all over the room.
After executing all the betrayers, Kuran and Moras joined forces to stabilize Naggarond again, and three Black Arks also set out from the port in an attempt to find some suitable gifts from Lustria for Moras, and The sacrifice of the divination wizard king's life and death - the Slan Demon Toad.
.........
The champion warrior Masnuo, who was far away in the vast ocean, did not have the conditions to enjoy the palace feast. The heavy rain during the day was like a cathartic flood. A sudden storm swept across the sea. If the dragon had not discovered it in time, It may take some effort to get out of the storm's range.
Masno on the deck held the sling with his hand. The dragon armor had been replaced by a leather jacket, just because the climate in the south was really unbearable, and so were some of the accompanying dragon princes. The basic principle of dragon armor to resist flames was based on it. The fire resistance rune, which is countered by the same thing.
The champion warrior looked at the whirlpool connecting the ocean and the sky in the distance with lingering fear. This storm was extremely powerful and looked extremely abnormal. It was obviously the result of human manipulation.
And this also proves that after twenty days of continuous tracking, traces of the Black Ark will soon be found.
"Your Excellency Masno, we have detected some undead ships, do you want to attack." The sailor on the dragon boat asked the champion warrior what he thought. As the person in charge of this operation, Masno needs to consider the pros and cons of each action, but only Provide decision-making and direction, and the captain will be responsible for specific implementation.
The rain wet Masnuo's long hair, but only his resolute face remained unchanged.
He thought about it for a moment. The main purpose of this operation was to plunder the Black Ark's wealth, and undead ships were usually a pile of junk. Not to mention a waste of time, they might also be led into an ambush, causing Black Ark to escape.
"No need, go all the way to the south. We need to resolve this matter as soon as possible!" The
Caledor fleet is already at the Tarantula Coast and will soon arrive at the area ruled by vampires - known as the Vampire Coast. Masnow didn't want to deal with these dead people for the time being.
According to the intelligence coming from Dusk Fortress, Druzi landed from Chapeiuto and raided directly into the interior, with a clear target - the city of Oxo in the sky. Judging from the distance on the sea chart, the Black Ark has returned, unless they were left in Lustria.
However, Masnow looked at the whirlpools connecting the sky and quickly gave up the idea.
This unnatural power comes from the mysterious Slan priests. It can be seen that they have discovered what happened to Druchi and tried their best to save it, but they still have no actual effect.
Soon after, with his amazing eyesight, Masno saw the Black Ark emerging from the storm. Strong winds and lightning roared behind it. Although some buildings of the Black Ark collapsed, it did not affect the main structure. This means that the wealth on it remains intact.
The prelude to the naval battle gradually unfolded. The ship-borne ballistae fired at the Black Ark without mercy. Hundreds of two-meter-long crossbow arrows were concentrated on the large Black Ark. Although the heavy rain blocked the view, it was still for those who had been traveling on the sea all year round. For a sailor, this is just a common occurrence.
Black Ark obviously saw the ambush circle, a fleet with a dragon ship as its flagship, accompanied by four eagle ships and two fire warships.
Since the Vaal's Wrath achieved great results in the past, the Navy's research on this kind of firepower superiority warship has been put on the agenda, and two more ships were launched in half a year.
"Strike the main building, but don't attack the power source!" Masnot reminded the captain to pay attention to the target of this operation. If the Black Ark sinks to the bottom of the sea, salvage will become extremely troublesome. There is also a pirate force watching closely. This Field operations will become less effective.
After saying the order, Masno put on his helmet, put on the dragon armor, and climbed onto the back of the dragon against the strong wind and lightning.
Along with them, there are four dragon princes. In this era, only Caledor can provide an organized dragon force for the maritime fleet.
The Black Ark began to accelerate, and Drucci could clearly feel that the storm behind him was accelerating toward him. Only madmen would face this extraordinary natural disaster. Rather than being struck by lightning and dying, they would rather fight the enemy on the deck. .
The dragon ship also began to accelerate. This ship from the Phoenix King Navy of Itain was in very good condition. The dragon blade had not worn out at all for thousands of years. Under the operation of the sailors, the acceleration magic matrix was operating at maximum power.
In the violent storm, the dragon ship faced the turbulent waves and hit the top of a black ark. Large rocks cracked under the impact of the dragon blade, and a hundred-meter-long gap opened in the huge hull.
The lifted hull of the dragon ship also brought the deck close to the Black Ark. Slides and ropes were thrown down from the fence, and a large number of soldiers began to pour into the deck of the Black Ark.
The soldiers holding large shields in the front row immediately raised their shields to protect their comrades behind them and successfully landed. The archers on the deck also aimed their sights at Drucci holding a repeating crossbow, without the need for verbal communication. , because this has been the destiny for thousands of years.
Arrows are intersecting with each other, and a sudden encounter tests the quality of all soldiers. However, the black ark belonging to Grond often has a large number of sorceresses. They vent chaotic dark magic without reservation, intending to bring benefits to their soldiers. Provide support.
Kaledofang was a little uncomfortable, because most of the magicians in the country were specialized in the fire system, but the heavy rain and strong wind made it difficult to cast the Wind of Aksha, and the spells of the Druchi sorceress killed many. Turning people into dark storms with sharp blades and strong winds that cut them into pieces, or evil spells that steal life force, are all the specialties of Druchi sorceresses.
Masno was fighting with the fear lord riding a manticore in the sky. He was watching the soldiers who landed on the Black Ark being gradually suppressed by magic. He was also a little anxious. He was planning to ask the Vaal priest to use magic to force the soldiers to pass through. During this wave.
He suddenly saw a beam of energy appearing in the distant sky that connected to the horizon. Although it was a little subtle due to the distance, it was still captured.
The lightning storm gradually subsided, the sky returned to its previous clearness, and the chaotic magical wind became calm and stable.
The magical confrontation on the deck officially began. Hundreds of fireballs the size of human heads were thrown towards the enemy. The storm composed of flames also vented its terrifying power at this moment.
The situation gradually reversed towards Caledor. With the superiority in firepower, soldiers, and magic, and the Black Ark being slightly worn in the storm, the sea encounter was finally won successfully at some cost.
On the deck full of blood and broken walls, Masnot nodded to the firing squad and motioned for all the hundreds of Druzis to be executed. Maybe many years later he would think of the scene of the firing squad executing Druzies today, but Unfortunately not now.
Regarding Druzi's attitude, he was consistent with Imrik. Only a dead Druzi would be of some use, and there would never be any unnecessary mercy.
Groups of soldiers walked toward the interior of the Black Ark, intending to search for the property that Drucci had found from Lustria. The results were not unexpected, and a large number of gold plaques, gems, and precious plants were found.
Masno was calculating how many gold leaf coins he could get this time, and he had also read Caledo's detailed financial report. Although his income had increased a lot in the past few years, his expenses were a bottomless pit.
A standing army of 30,000 people was enough to make every court doubt whether it needed to be maintained, but Imric gritted his teeth and persisted. Not to mention that the Vaal Anvil and the Flame Tower also had to invest in research in related fields. It was enough to maintain financial health. It’s not easy to tell the truth.
A voice interrupted the champion warrior's thoughts, and the sailor hurriedly came from inside,
"Sir Masino, we found a Slann Demon Toad."
The champion warrior smiled, and now everything was found.
