Chapter 293 Umbrella Project (Two in One)
Nicholas and Bai Xiaowen had a showdown in order to dispel Bai Xiaowen's concerns and learn more details.
And Bai Xiaowen can indeed reveal more details after he does not need to conceal the identity of the visitor from another world.
The two talked for a long time.
Ultimately, Nicholas said:
"I agree in principle with your 'Umbrella' plan. However, now is not the time to start..."
Bai Xiaowen nodded to show his understanding, just like Archbishop Arlo, who even Nicholas had to give three points of courtesy, his firm opposition would definitely attract a large number of people to stand on his side.
Nicholas also has to think about his own future and can't just go his own way.
However, Nicholas allowed Bai Xiaowen to act cheaply, and at Bai Xiaowen's request, a special warrant was issued.
"All activities undertaken by the bearer of this order are related to the survival of mankind. For this reason, he is hereby permitted to act at will in any occasion, and no one shall interfere, and try his best to provide convenience. Nicholas Kane, 11/29/10 ."
Bai Xiaowen and Li Shuyi said goodbye and left.
Walking to the gate of the Lord's Mansion of Heiyan City, Bai Xiaowen found that a group of people were already waiting there.
"Dior, how are things? What is the attitude of His Royal Highness?" Cecilia did not attend this high-level military meeting, but from the mouths of others, she had heard that "Baron Dior" proposed a crazy plan. , Even Archbishop Arlo, who has always been kind, has rarely expressed his opposition.
"It's the same as the results discussed at the meeting, it's on hold for the time being." Bai Xiaowen said.
"Then, what exactly does the plan look like?" Cecilia's eyes flashed with curiosity, even the white rose, who has always been aloof, couldn't hide the nature of a woman in front of her lover.
Bai Xiaowen looked around, and many people were eagerly waiting.
"This is not the place to talk."
Bai Xiaowen took Cecilia and Li Shuyi and walked back to the residence amid the slander of everyone, and then handed the folded parchment plan to Cecilia for viewing.
When Cecilia was reading the plan, Bai Xiaowen had recalled Kitts, and then re-summoned in front of him.
With a bang, Kitts appeared in the room with a disheveled shirt, wearing only a pair of big pants, revealing his rough chest muscles...
"What happened?" Kitts looked around blankly. One second he was enjoying the afterglow of a happy time in bed, the next second he was locked in the small dark room, and the third second he appeared in the lord. In front of the boss, this made Kitts a little confused.
"I called you back." Bai Xiaowen explained briefly.
"...Boss, can you be gentler next time?" Kitts grimaced.
"I don't have the patience to run all over the brothels and brothels in Heiyan City." Bai Xiaowen waved his hands and said, "Kitz, I'll give you a task. Bring this secret order and set off tonight to Hongye collar..."
Kitts' work attitude is obviously much more positive than that of Dr. Zombie, and he is not annoyed by being interrupted by sleep. After Bai Xiaowen instructed the content of the task, he patted his chest to ensure that it was completed, and then went to make up for sleep.
It's daytime, and in daylight, Kitts, as a vampire, has a 20% penalty for reducing all attributes. Moreover, although Black Rock City was not encircled, there should be a scout team of the enemy nearby, so it would be safer to walk at night, as the night is the home of the vampire Kitts.
At this time, Cecilia had already read the plan. She has always been calm, rarely surprised face, full of shock.
"Dior, you...is this all true?"
"This is just the outline of the plan. Cecilia, remember to keep it secret." Bai Xiaowen said.
"...But, is there no other way?" Cecilia said.
"Cecilia, you have to remember that even if there is a glimmer of hope, I will not start this damn plan." Bai Xiaowen can only reiterate.
"Although this is a very extreme plan, I am willing to believe in you,
Dior. "Cecilia understood how much resistance there was in Black Rock City against this plan, but she made her stand.
The friend-level favorability and the love-level favorability are really powerful.
"Cecilia, if I'm not a lord, or even a person from this continent, this plane world, what would you think of me?"
Bai Xiaowen remembered the issue of his own identity. Since Prince Nicholas can see through it, it is probably only a matter of time before others know that he is a visitor from another plane.
In Bai Xiaowen's plan, it is a matter of time before Cecilia is told the truth.
However, Cecilia seemed to be mentally prepared for a long time, but after a little surprise, she resumed her smile and said: "Dior, I love you now, and it has nothing to do with your identity and origin."
Cecilia's two arms wrapped around Bai Xiaowen's neck, and her warm lips pressed against Bai Xiaowen's.
In fact, when Cecilia and Bai Xiaowen danced, they felt a little bit of doubt. Bai Xiaowen almost didn't understand dancing at all, which was quite inconsistent with the rumored image of Baron Dior, the lord of Baishi Town...
"Cough cough!" Li Shuyi coughed.
Bai Xiaowen came back to his senses, quickly let go of the hand holding Cecilia's waist, and laughed awkwardly: "I don't know when the next attack of the survivors will start. There are still some things that need to be improved in my plan. Place. Cecilia, I need your help."
"Just speak." Cecilia said.
...
After the Great War, the Human Coalition tried to send troops out to repair the Arrow Tower.
The remnant army spent a lot of money to destroy all the arrow towers on the periphery. Of course, it is impossible to sit back and watch the human combined army repair it.
In the next two days, although no large-scale siege battles broke out, the small-scale battles were quite intensive. In the end, under the interference of the Allied People's Army, the Allied Humanity Army only repaired a few arrow towers near the city gate, and the plan to rebuild the defense system was a failure.
The seventh day of the defense of Black Rock Fortress.
Early in the morning, the alarm bell on the city tower rang hurriedly, awakening the sleeping people.
"They... they are here!"
"It's the undead! Countless undead!"
Climbing up the tower, a group of high-level human beings watched from afar, all in shock.
Before seeing the plague undead army with your own eyes, it is difficult to realize what the tens of thousands of undead army looks like just by imagination.
Thousands of people fill the city, and thousands of people fill the wild.
These actions were a little slow, and the expressionless army of plagued undead filled the entire field.
"Uuuuuu..."
The horn sounded, and behind the plague undead army, teams of elite survivors were fully armed and ready to attack the city.
"The enemy is in range! Attack!" Lord Denton shouted.
The trebuchets on the city wall began to roar, throwing a stone bullet out. Teams of archers stood on the city wall, arrows like rain.
But these rain of stone arrows, in front of the endless sea of undead, are like small stones, and they can't turn any waves at all. Kill one or ten plague undead, and more plague undead will fill their vacancies in the next moment.
"Archbishop Arlo! Can you perform another divine art..." Many nobles were desperate, and cast Arlo's eyes for help.
Archbishop Arlo turned pale and shook his head slowly.
No matter how powerful Archbishop Arlo's Forbidden Curse was, it was impossible to cover a battlefield several kilometers in diameter. According to Bai Xiaowen's understanding, a senior spellcaster leader like him can play a pivotal role in a local-scale battle, such as the first day.
But now, the plague undead army has surrounded the Black Rock Fortress on all sides, filling the entire plain, and Archbishop Arlo is powerless to return to the sky.
"This is just the first batch," Bai Xiaowen said to Nicholas. "It will be too late to make a decision after Black Rock City is broken."
Nicholas' face was stiff and expressionless.
Li Shuyi tugged on Bai Xiaowen's shirt, pulled him aside, and asked in a low voice, "What should I do if Nicholas doesn't agree to the end?"
Bai Xiaowen replied softly: "Before the city breaks, I will start directly."
Bai Xiaowen will not place his hopes entirely on the aborigines of the spiritual world. For him, the main mission "War of Black Rock" must be completed, which is the premise of all benefits in the second stage.
The reason why Nicholas's consent must be obtained is also very simple. Bai Xiaowen hopes that Nicholas can bear this black pot for him - this pot is too big, and Bai Xiaowen's head is too small.
Under the dense rain of arrows, the plague undead army rushed under the city wall.
The way to attack the city wall is also quite willful, rushing to the front of the plague undead, lying directly under the root of the city wall... The later ones lie down and use their bodies to forcibly build a hill of the dead!
On the city wall, Archbishop Arlo and others were not unprepared. They poured diluted holy water instead of boiling oil. Bai Xiaowen's eyes kept twitching, this was all Bai Huahua's merit!
Diluted holy water is indeed effective for the undead, and it is highly corrosive. The dead white skin of the plagued undead is festering in large areas, and the health value drops, and they die.
However, under the control of the plague lord, the plague undead are all dead men who are not afraid of death and have lost the sense of pain. No matter whether boiling oil or holy water falls on their heads, they are all unmoved and faithfully execute the plague. The Lord's command, with his own body, fill the height of the city wall.
"I can't let them charge anymore! Charge!"
The gate of the Black Rock Fortress opened, and the strong men such as Earl Denton led the army to charge, trying to break the front of the plague undead.
The individual combat power of these plague undead is actually very weak, and they are basically primary ordinary templates.
The cavalry of the imperial regiment led by Earl Denton, wherever they went, the undead of the plague fell one after another like reaping wheat.
But this is of no use. Every time a plague undead dies, more plague undead rush up to fill the position. As for the cavalry under Earl Denton, if one of them was accidentally pulled off their horses, it was the result of being surrounded and beaten, and there was no possibility of survival.
Several charges, although killing a piece of plague undead, have no meaning for the entire battle situation.
The bodies of the plague undead, regardless of life or death, are placed at the foot of the city wall, and they are constantly increasing the "hill of the dead".
In the rear, the wolf cavalry of the orcs, and the trolls' raptor hunter troops, have all been placed in an array. When the Hill of the Dead and the city wall are flush, with the agility and speed of these elites, they can ignore the city wall and rush directly into Black Rock City!
"His Royal Highness, abandon the city!" The chief of staff and the magic advisor urged each other.
Nicholas glanced at Archbishop Arlo, who shook his head blankly at him.
"...Dior! The Umbrella Project, start now!" Nicholas' face suddenly became gloomy and cold, and he gritted his teeth and roared.
"Yes, Your Highness!"
Bai Xiaowen finally waited for this moment, he waved his hand: "The City Defense Army stepped back, and the Baishi Army threw the 'Ultimate Plague Buster'..."
The city guards who shot arrows and poured oil on the city head, with the consent of Prince Nicholas, retreated to make room. The soldiers of the Baishi Army who had been prepared for a long time appeared one by one with large wooden barrels and water pipes in their hands.
"The ultimate plague nemesis?"
All the human nobles were a little surprised. They heard that the erudite scholars under Bai Xiaowen had developed a series of medicines for the plague killer. Heiyan City was able to completely clean up the necromantic plague virus, thanks to the three primary, advanced and super plague killers brought by Bai Xiaowen. class of drugs.
However, the ultimate plague nemesis has never been heard of.
Could it be that Bai Xiaowen's "Umbrella Project" is to cure these plague undead? Isn't the plague nemesis medicine only effective for humans who have not yet been transformed into undead?
With doubts, everyone looked at the soldiers of the White Stone Army, aiming the water pipe at the densely packed undead of the plague below, and sprayed out a pale white solution.
These pale white solutions quickly penetrated into the bodies of the plagued undead.
"It seems... there is no special effect." A group of people observed it carefully, and someone carefully gave an evaluation.
"Roar!"
As soon as the voice fell, a roar like a beast came from below the city wall.
The fallen plague undead suddenly stood up again! Even the plague undead whose health was emptied and died before were no exception.
The meaningless roar of these beasts came from the mouths of the undead who stood up again.
Compared with before, their body shapes have not changed much, but their movements have become much stiffer, and an unknown liquid is still flowing from the corners of their mouths, making them even more disgusting.
Exclamations sounded on the city wall, and I saw one of the undead standing up again, turned around and rushed towards his former companion. Before the other party could react, he bit down!
The same action also appeared on other undead who stood up again.
"Prepare the trebuchets!" Bai Xiaowen waved and ordered. The trebuchets installed special wooden barrels instead of stone bullets, and smashed them into the distance, in the sea of plagued undead.
"Now, let me explain to you the content of the umbrella plan, which is to spread a large number of 'ultimate plague nemesis' all over the northern border! Plague undead who have come into contact with the ultimate plague nemesis, as well as ordinary infected people who have not yet become plague undead, will be forced to Transformation," Bai Xiaowen said, pointing to the undead standing near the root of the city wall, "now, they have a new name called... Zombies." 8) For more exciting novels, welcome to visit everyone's school
