Chapter 89: Dragon Grave Canyon, Dragon Corpse (th Update)
Under the hood, Deya's calm eyes stared at the woman kneeling on the ground in front of him.
His right eye burned with pale flames, a side effect of becoming the 'Chosen of the Dark Moon'.
Whenever he uses any ability, his right eye will have such strange symptoms.
This is a hassle, as it is easy for people to discover your true identity.
But Deya doesn't care. Once the world recollection ends, the war will probably begin soon.
By then, it wouldn't matter whether his identity as the Son of Dark Moon would be exposed.
"Why fight with your own people?"
Deya said in a scrutinizing manner.
Ishamara was so shaken that she didn't even know how she ended up kneeling on the ground.
Recalling the tall and majestic shadow she saw when she looked into Deya's eyes just now, the memory alone made her feel fear again from the depths of her soul.
Is this the legendary Chosen One of God?
She certainly knew what the 'Son of God' really meant.
Ishamara looked up, a hint of fanaticism in her eyes.
She will give absolute respect to this truly powerful person who is far more powerful than herself.
"They are assassins sent by my enemies. If they want to kill me, I will fight back."
Ishamara licked her lips.
She was not a person who liked to explain things to others, but when faced with Deya's questions, she was willing to explain.
Deya was not interested in asking Ishamara about these things.
He just took a quick look at this woman who might be a member of the royal family of the Narbo Empire.
She was wearing a proper military-like outfit and long trousers. Her face was beautiful, like a blooming bloody rose.
She has a tall and proud figure, and her firm breasts are clearly visible even through the military uniform.
However, Ishamara was in a very bad condition at this time. Her left arm was completely twisted beyond recognition, and her body was in a mess with bloodstains and wounds all over.
Seeing this woman hunched over slightly, it seems that she has several broken ribs.
Deya's eyes fell on the sword held in Ishamara's right hand.
The sword's guard is gorgeous, and the blade is engraved with complex patterns.
Deya guessed that this should be an epic magic weapon, and Ishamara's profession was probably "Sword Saint".
"Your Highness, those people ran very fast. We didn't dare to chase them too far. We just killed a few of them and returned."
The legion commander returned to Deya from the woods with his personal guards and said ashamedly.
The guards beside him were holding several human heads in their hands.
Deya said: "Don't pay attention to them."
He looked at Ishamara again: "Can you still fight?"
Ishamara laughed and said, "Help me heal these injuries, and I will fight for you!"
Deya had just saved her, and she was a grateful person.
And it is not shameful to fight with such a strong man.
"it is good!"
Deya called the military chaplain and asked her to use divine magic to heal Ishamara's injuries.
As long as she can fight for him and increase his own combat power, he doesn't mind keeping her.
This woman was temporarily convinced by the strength she displayed...
Deya knew exactly what her fanatical look meant.
Deya looked at his panel——
Deya Cavendish (incarnation of divine power)
To put it simply, the current Deya has activated 'whos.your.daddy'. In this world's recollection, with the power of the goddess, he can ignore the influence of the number of rings.
Even he can use nine-ring spells now.
But unfortunately, Deya doesn't know spells of this level.
"lets go!"
Deya didn't want to waste time and ordered the army to continue advancing.
Ishamara also became one of the soldiers and moved forward with the army.
The soldiers around her were still wary of her, but Ishamara didn't mind.
With the help of the priest's divine treatment, her external injuries healed quickly, but the fatigue brought by two days and two nights of non-stop fleeing and fighting could not be eradicated.
But Ishamara remained energetic and overcame her sleepiness with her strong will.
The mage Bowen beside her was in a very bad condition. He was staggering back and forth, wishing he could find a place to sleep and recover his strength.
"Bowen, do you have any impression of the Chosen One?"
The mage has a wealth of knowledge, Ishamara asked.
"what?"
Mage Bowen was stunned for a moment, he shook his head, thought carefully and said: "Your Highness, in my memory, the Dark Moon Church does not have a Chosen One.
Of course, my knowledge is limited, or maybe I just don’t know.”
Ishamara's dark eyes looked at the figure riding on the horse in front of her and said with interest, "Interesting."
The army advanced for another two hours, and a valley shrouded in thick fog appeared in Deya's sight.
There,
It’s Dragon Tomb Canyon!
Deya recalled the information he learned from the Dark Moon Pope in his mind.
It is said that hundreds of years ago, there was a paladin and a dragon who became close friends.
The man and the dragon went on adventures together and traveled to many places.
They are very powerful and can always turn danger into safety when they encounter it.
But one time, they encountered an invincible enemy. In order to protect his friends, the dragon fought with the enemy and was seriously injured, which threatened his life.
Fortunately, the dragon took the paladin away from danger.
Unfortunately, it is no longer viable.
In the last moments, a man and a dragon came to this valley, and the dragon died here.
In order to prevent his friend's grave from being robbed, the Paladin guarded it for his entire life. Even when the Paladin was old, he was still unwilling to leave the dragon's graveyard, so he transformed himself into a death knight and continued to protect his friend.
Many years passed, and other dragons were attracted by the dragon aura here, and buried themselves here as well, guarded by the death knight.
Over time, this valley has attracted countless undead creatures and has become a paradise for them.
The story of the dragon and the paladin is very touching. They each sacrificed their lives for their friendship.
But Deya is a cold-hearted necromancer who comes here just to dig up the dragon's grave.
Deya led his army into the valley.
A thick mist rose up all around.
The mist was filled with cold negative energy. It fell on the body, leaving damp and cold marks and invading the bone marrow.
The howling of the dead souls and the laughter of ghosts resounded in the valley. The sounds echoed in the valley, stirring up people's deepest fear of death.
But these five thousand soldiers had no fear. They just followed their Son of God and fearlessly stepped into the paradise of the dead.
The fog became thicker and thicker, and from time to time, undead creatures could be seen moving around.
The army formed a long line and marched into the valley with strict military discipline.
In the thick fog, a hoarse voice was heard, as if it echoed in the human soul: "People of the Dark Moon Church, leave here.
According to our agreement, I will guard this place for you and not let anyone else in, including you."
In the chaotic, damp and cold fog, a knight riding a skeleton warhorse walked over.
Its face had long been shriveled, it had gray hair, and it exuded a cold aura.
Behind the Death Knight, the eerie laughter of countless undead souls was heard, and will-o'-the-wisp fires appeared in the thick fog.
Deya looked at the Death Knight in front of him and was slightly surprised.
This is a 7th ring undead creature.
Most importantly, it actually maintains a very strong sense of self.
Generally speaking, only undead creatures of the 8th ring and above have some self-awareness and will not remember much about their previous lives.
After all, dead is dead.
But this Death Knight is not only logical and well-organized, but it also only has 7 rings!
This is the bond of friendship!
However, Deya doesn't like undead creatures with too strong a sense of self.
With self-awareness comes your own thoughts.
In Deya's opinion, the undead creatures should become his tools and work for him obediently.
What if you have your own ideas and ask me for salary?
"Death Knight, I will only give you one chance. Submit to me, work for me, and hand over all the undead creatures here to me. Only in this way can you continue to maintain your consciousness and live."
Deya no nonsense.
Why talk about feelings with an undead creature? Just surrender to me.
The Necromancer only conquers!
The Death Knight said angrily, "Necromancer, are you trying to steal the dragon's body?"
"Yes, they will become my servants, showing the glory and power they had in their lifetime."
Deya said cheerfully, admitting his plan.
"You will pay the price for your arrogance, Dark Moon Church. My contract with you is now void!"
The Death Knight was furious.
It said no more, and behind it, countless undead creatures were emerging from the thick fog.
After being here for so many years, it has long become the leader of these undead creatures.
Deya looked closely and found that among these undead creatures there were ordinary skeletons, zombies, mummies, ghosts, corpses, and death vultures.
There are also high-level abominations, black warriors, vampires, and even other death knights.
Although there are no undead creatures above the seventh ring here, Deya's eyes are shining.
Well, well, well, the quality of the undead here is pretty good!
Deya raised his hand and said to the 5,000 soldiers behind him: "Attack, kill that Death Knight!"
"Woo-wu-wu-"
In the thick fog, the knights of the Dark Moon Church blew their horns.
There were only five thousand warriors facing tens of thousands of undead creatures of various levels, especially in this valley filled with negative energy.
They will most likely be wiped out.
But facing the order from the Son of God, all the soldiers had fanatical eyes and rushed forward without fear of death.
"For the goddess, for the Son of God, kill!!"
The vibration of the horses' hooves on the earth reverberated through the valley like a major earthquake.
Ishamara raised the sword in her hand, her eyes full of desire for killing, and she and the soldiers around her shouted "kill" and rushed towards the group of undead creatures.
The wizard Bowen said in panic: "Your Highness, it is impossible for us to defeat such a huge undead army!"
Ishamara ignored Bowen and shouted, "Kill!!"
When the Death Knight saw that Deya dared to attack, he became angry and also attacked with his own undead army.
It will never allow its friend's grave to be trampled upon!
then,
The five thousand soldiers led by Deya and the tens of thousands of undead creatures directly overwhelmed the Death Knight under its astonished gaze.
[You used the ability of the Son of Dark Moon: Manipulate the Undead]
The God of Dark Moon and Afterglow is the queen of the undead, and any undead will obey His orders.
As the son of the Dark Moon, Deya also possesses the ability to control the undead.
If it were in reality, Deya might not be able to control all the undead due to his strength problem.
But in this world, he is now the incarnation of divine power, and all the undead will obey his orders.
He just wanted to see how well the army obeyed orders.
I can only say that religion is really scary. Even if it is an order that almost guarantees death, they will carry it out without hesitation.
Five thousand soldiers stopped and looked at the undead creatures in front of them, staring at each other in bewilderment.
Ishamara, who had been so frantic that she wanted to chop people down, now sat on the ground in frustration.
I thought we could have a big fight, but it's over just like that?
No, of course it’s not over yet. Deyan immediately ordered all the soldiers to cooperate with the undead creatures and start digging graves!
……
Two days later, Deya dug out the corpses of six giant dragons from the valley!
