Chapter 141: Mavis, let me see your...divine guidance skills!
Berwick City -

Broken houses, collapsed city walls, corpses all over the ground, and shouts of killing still coming from the streets and corners of the city.

The soldiers guarding Beric have firm eyes and are ready to die. They will never allow these evil and dirty undead to rule the city, and they will never allow innocent people to be killed by these undead.

then,

The brave warriors were hopelessly overwhelmed by the almost endless undead.

When they were killed by the undead, they were affected by the plague, staggering to their feet, and joined the path of killing their former comrades.

Deya's undead army also suffered heavy losses.

The entire city and the area outside the city were littered with broken bones, rotten flesh, and the broken remains of some high-level undead creatures.

Berwick is the second most important city in Frederick's territory after the capital, and is also one of the few large cities in the Kingdom of Susaitani.

Although this place is not close to the front line, the garrison troops are not large, only more than 10,000 people.

However, due to its geographical location, convenient transportation and developed economy, the city's defense equipment is quite luxurious.

Coupled with the city-level protective magic device's special attack against negative energy, it cost Deya a considerable price to capture the city.

Nearly one third of the hundreds of high-level undead creatures died under the bombardment of various alchemical cannons and alchemical guns.

And the 100,000 low-level undead creatures were also wiped out by the city garrison's reckless firepower, and nearly 40,000 of them were destroyed.

This made Deya feel emotional.

As expected, wars are fought for money. You wouldn't say that the garrison of this city is that strong.

But this city is rich and willing to use those expensive magic alchemy props. After bombarding without regard for the losses, Deya is already very satisfied with this result.

The undead creatures themselves are no match for the trained and armed human army as a single entity.

If the undead creatures were replaced by human troops, they might not be able to capture the city. Such casualties could easily have a huge impact on morale.

Even if the undead creatures suffer heavy casualties, there is no need to worry about morale issues.

'The root cause is that these soldiers refused to surrender.'

Deya muttered to himself.

The troops guarding Berwick are very elite and will fight to the death rather than surrender.

Of course, it may also be because they are facing undead creatures and dare not surrender, for fear that they will become undead after surrendering.

But no matter what, with Deya's full-scale attack, after suffering certain casualties, the city was finally captured.

In front of Deya, the commander of the guard force, a six-ring strong man, died with his eyes wide open.

Although Deya's undead creatures are still unable to obtain mythical power, the Dragon Feast Crystal is their last resort.

But now, when Deya faces an individual six-ring warrior, he no longer needs to use numbers to kill the opponent as he did in the past.

Upton is a sixth-ring druid, and according to him, he is preparing to be promoted to the seventh ring.

Mavis's saintly form is also that of a priest in the realm of six-ring destiny.

With the two of them taking action personally, and with the cooperation of Deya's heroic template undead creature, killing a six-ring creature is no longer a difficult task for Deya.

Deya silently put away the six-ring body in front of him.

No matter what time it is, Liuhuan’s corpse is precious and an important consumable.

Deya, who is in the Narbo Empire across the sea, doesn't know, but just on this continental island, including the two countries of Susaitani and Inglor, there are probably only two or three hundred people who can reach the sixth ring.

These six-ring people are not necessarily working for these two countries.

Some may be mercenaries, while others may have retired due to their old age and no longer be involved in outside affairs.

You have to know that the population of Susaitani and England combined is as high as tens of millions.

With such a huge population base, this continental island only has the sixth and seventh ring roads, which shows how rare it is.

'But the biggest possibility is the loss of talent.'

"Those on this continent who are somewhat capable and think they can advance to the sixth ring have probably all fled to the other side of the strait."

The houses around were burning. While Deya was thinking, Lamia, who was wearing a black dress with only her fair neck exposed, walked up to Deya and asked softly, "What should we do next?"

"do not know."

Deya shook his head.

"do not know?"

The witch looked shocked. What did she mean by "I don't know"?

Deya said calmly: "I just don't know, Lamia, do you have any misunderstandings about me? Do you think I'm an omnipotent genius?

I don't know how to run a city.

I don’t know what to do with the food, drink, defecation and urination of hundreds of thousands of people, especially since the situation here is different from that in Zomlite and is not suitable for Zomlite’s ruling method.”

After a pause, Deya continued: "...Duke Frederick did not support Berwick City. He is most likely gathering troops.

In order to attack this city, my Undead Army also suffered heavy losses. If the Duke gathers his army to counterattack Beric at this time, I may not be able to hold it. "

Deya glanced at the people patrolling the streets around him and killing those who took advantage of the chaos to buy for free, and then said: "The city's defense equipment was almost destroyed when I attacked.

Even if those devices are still there, do you think these mindless undead will use them? Without those city defense devices and city-level protective magic devices, this city is no different from being undefended. "

Deya's panel only allows Deya to learn spells, but there are no "management" skills.

Although he was a small leader in the company in his previous life, he had only managed a small group of people, and he had no experience in managing a city of hundreds of thousands of people.

Even if he could study, wouldn't it be better for him to spend that time learning magic and improving his strength instead of learning these useless things?

Deya's honesty left Lamia speechless.

A word inexplicably popped up in her mind. Is this what is meant by 'kill without burying'?
"Humph, since you don't know how to manage a city and can't find anyone to manage it, then why are you attacking here?"

Mavis was wiping her whip. When she heard Deya's words, a mocking smile appeared on her beautiful face, which was as big as a palm.

Deya would not get angry just because the other party opened his mouth. He smiled and said, "Oh? Then our Saint Lady, Her Royal Highness the Princess of the High Elves, can you help me manage it?"

"Why should I help you?"

"Then I will give the order."

According to the contract between the two parties, Mavis must obey any orders from Deya.

When Mavis heard this, she said angrily, "No, don't give orders casually. Let Upton help you."

You can tell from her look that she actually knows nothing about management.

Deya curled his lips and said, "You don't understand yourself, what are you talking about?"

He looked at Upton.

Upton quickly shook his head and said, "Master Deya, please don't look at me. I have only managed villages with a few hundred people, and I don't know much about human living habits."

Well, he is just a village chief, and the village chief of a primitive tribe in the rainforest. It would be difficult for him to directly manage a city of hundreds of thousands of people.

The family does have talented people that can be used.

However, Berwick is located in the heart of Frederick's territory, and the Cavendish family cannot provide support.

Deya thought for a moment and said, "The viscount who previously managed Berwick has surrendered, so let him continue to manage this place.

If the Duke mobilizes a large army to attack this city, we will retreat immediately and retreat back to the Limerick Mountains. "

Deya went south this time to relieve the pressure on his brother.

If the Duke sent out his troops, he would run, directly back to the mountains, leaving the Duke's army helpless.

The convenience of his undead army is that it can fight guerrilla warfare at any time and does not need supplies.

And if the Duke ignores him, Deya will prepare to rest and continue attacking in other directions to put pressure on the Duke.

Anyway, Deya's goal is to prevent Duke Frederick from providing military assistance, and then slowly consume the Duke's manpower until the Duke's territory is completely taken over.

In fact, for the undead creatures, the easiest way is to directly turn all the living people here into dead people.

But Deya still has a basic moral bottom line. He is not a madman and he would not do such a thing.

If he really did it, he would become the enemy of the world and would not be far from death.

Massacres of cities are not uncommon in human war history.

But the premise of all that is a human civil war.

If foreign races were to commit such acts against humans, it would likely inspire human unity.

The dead are aliens to humans.

Looking at the city where the fighting was still going on, Deya was too lazy to care about it anymore.

……

Abranah, the capital of Susaitani.

In the palace, the second princess, Celeste, was chatting with the maid.

During this period, His Majesty the King was quite nice to her. Although he still kept Celeste under house arrest, he also assigned a maid to take care of her.

Sally did not feel any gratitude for this.

If the king really cared about family ties, he would have come to visit her long ago.

But Celeste had never seen her so-called father visit her.

From a very young age, Sally had lost hope in family affection.

Even Sally understood that the reason why the king treated her so well now must be related to her grandfather's side, the Hudson family.

"Amy, has anything big happened in the kingdom recently?"

As usual, Celeste hoped to learn something about what was happening outside by chatting with the maid.

"Big news? Your Highness, the biggest news recently is that an important city in the Duke of Frederick's territory was captured by the 'Immortal King'!"

At this point, the maid shuddered, as if she was very afraid of the undead king who was rumored to have three heads and six arms but whose true body was a terrifying skeleton.

Hearing the news about Deya, Sally, who had not paid much attention to it and was just chatting, suddenly brightened up and asked hurriedly, "Amy, tell me what happened specifically."

Ever since it was discovered that 'Crow' was Deya's apostle, Celeste's opportunities to exchange letters with Deya have become fewer and fewer.

The king also began to ask people to pay attention to whether there were crows around the palace.

Even the crow has become a symbol of ominousness for Susaitani.

Seeing that Her Royal Highness was interested in this matter, Amy tried to recall everything she knew and said, "Your Highness, I don't know the details, but it's being spread around the palace.

Her Majesty the Queen has been begging His Majesty the King to send troops to help His Excellency the Duke."

The current queen is the sister of Duke Frederick, who is her real family.

Celeste asked calmly, "How is Deyadah...the immortal king?"

"I don't know about that either. I can go find out for you. But I heard people talking about how the undead king is extremely terrifying. He has hundreds of thousands of undead under his command. Wherever he goes, all the living people are killed by him and turned into undead."

As she spoke, Amy patted her chest in fear, her expression terrified.

"But your highness, don't worry. No matter how powerful the immortal king is, he can't defeat Abrana. His Majesty the King and the Duke will definitely destroy her!"

The maid clenched her fists, as if she was looking forward to the fall of the great devil.

"Ah."

Sally replied softly.

She wasn't worried about whether Lord Deya would attack Abrana.

She even hoped that the Lord could defeat Abrana, so that she could see Lord Deya again.

After hearing that Deya was fine, she felt relieved. As for whether Lord Deya had turned living people into undead along the way, she didn't care.

During this period, because of the king's vigilance, she had fewer opportunities to communicate with Lord Deya, which made Celeste very sad.

I can try to get more information, so that I will have a reason to continue contacting Lord Deya.

Sally was ready to make a move.

I just wonder if Lord Deya is thinking about me now...

Sally's ears suddenly turned red. She didn't know what she was thinking about.

……

Berwick, Frederick County.

"Mavis, please be gentler. It hurts me a little... Have you done this so many times, but you have no experience at all and can only move mechanically? You still need to practice your divine guidance skills."

Deya sat on a chair, looking at Mavis squatting in front of him, her gorgeous silver-white hair blooming like a flower.

She turned her head away with a look of disgust and didn't look at Deya. Her white teeth gently bit her moist red lips. Her right hand held the hot pillar and was moving it up and down mechanically.

Mavis is the saint of the Church of Destiny and an experimental subject sent by God. Isn't this the divine guide!

Hearing Deya's words, she couldn't help but said, "Shut up, if you say it again I'll break it."

Also, you call this divine guidance? The gods should kill you with a thunderbolt!
Mavis cursed inwardly.

Deya was not afraid of Mavis's threats at all.

This world has divine magic, and the repair function is quite powerful.

As a necromancer, Deya can even sew himself up. There is absolutely no trace of gaps or stitches. Even the best surgeons would have to admire him.

The girl's palms were soft, and Deya could even feel the fine lines on her palms.

Looking at Mavis's face, which was so beautiful that it was indescribable even among the high elves who were famous for their beauty.

Especially the blush on the other person's white jade face and the look of disgust, as well as the strange charm that went straight into the heart.

Deya believed that any normal man with desires would be captured by her beauty.

Being stared at by Deya so passionately and listening to his increasingly rapid breathing, Mavis found that her heartbeat was also speeding up.

Damn it, why do I have to do this!

Mavis was mad and wanted to cry but had no tears.

She was really hurt by her other self.

The air was quiet. After an unknown amount of time, Deya snorted softly.

Mavis breathed a sigh of relief.

She stood up tiredly, only to feel her legs aching from squatting on the ground. She withdrew her hand in disgust, stepped forward with her naked snow-white feet, and prepared to leave.

"Where are you going?"

"I'm going to wash my hands!"

Mavis raised her arms and opened her palms, only to feel her fingers stick together, as if she was afraid that the object on her palms would touch her clothes.

"You can put it in your hair. Seriously, I've always liked your hair."

"You disgusting guy, why don't you just die!"

Mavis gnashed her teeth, feeling ashamed and angry.

Deya chuckled and stopped teasing him.

at this time,

He frowned, and a word that shouldn't have appeared appeared on the panel.
You are being cursed
