Chapter 448 Invisible Enemy

On a moonlit night, Andrei and Alyosha were grilling meat on the back of a single furnace beast in the yard, enjoying a rare vacation.

They have been in the big city of Yaocheng for thirteen years, and many things have changed during this time.

First, Andrei entered the seminary and started from scratch. With excellent grades, he obtained the official scholar qualification and wore a black robe with a holy flower.

Then he successfully stayed in school and entered the medical school as an intern lecturer.

Originally, Andrei had nothing to do with medicine.

In his past twenty years of life in the abyss, he appeared as a mage, controlled the mage tower, used exploration skills, and his work was closer to the military direction.

Yaocheng does not need combat members, but has high requirements for professional ability, especially in the seminary at the top of the pyramid of symbolic scholars. To become a lecturer, the competition is extremely fierce.

His wife Alyosha advised him: "Dear Andre, I know that you have always wanted to have a magic tower to continue your previous magic research. But this is not a small place like the abyss, but the big city of Yaocheng behind the Yao tribe..."

"We all have to learn to be down-to-earth, okay? I believe that with your ability, you can also make great achievements in other aspects."

Then she suggested that Andre apply for a job at the medical school.

The reason is that with the continuous growth of the Yao population and the expansion of the development scale of various cities, the gap in specific professions has become very large.

The two professions with the largest gaps are doctors and senior herders.

Senior herders need to specialize in raising and caring for extraordinary creatures, especially the deformed beasts headed by the unique furnace beast. If they are properly cultivated, these deformed beasts will be a biological device with the ability to grow.

But it is not easy to raise them well. It takes a lot of skills to get along with extraordinary creatures, and you need to master the corresponding knowledge, and you also need to have herder experience.

In the extraordinary pastures of various cities, there has always been a large gap in senior herders.

The same is true for doctors.

As the population grows, the number of patients is also growing rapidly. The sanatoriums in each city have been expanded again and again, but the number of doctors has never kept up with the needs of patients.

"Andre, the medical school needs to recruit many interns. With your ability, there will be no problem."

Alyosha said: "Do you know? Many patients in Yaocheng have to make appointments for a few days before they can receive treatment. Many of our colleagues are working day and night, checking blood, observing patients, and preparing potions, just to save more lives..."

"Your [Detection Technique] can not only be used in combat, but also to help people."

Andre accepted his wife's advice.

During the ten years in the medical school, he gradually emerged. His experience as an abyss mage also allowed him to deal with various situations in an orderly manner. Going out to participate in diagnosis and treatment did not affect his continued research on spells.

Up to now, Andre is already a three-flower scholar and a senior lecturer at the medical school.

Not long ago, the Yao Kingdom was officially announced, and all ground cities were officially connected. As the capital of the kingdom, Yaocheng's status has been officially confirmed, and the residents of the city have also received more dividends.

Soon after the crystal structure era was determined, the academic enthusiasm of the Yao clan further increased, and another good era for scholars arrived.

…

Those fellow mages who have been waiting for opportunities are now either building mage towers in the mountains or looking for job opportunities everywhere. Ordinary mages are not very competitive in the Yao clan city.

Andre swallowed a piece of barbecue and sighed: "More than a decade ago, I was still in the street in a daze, thinking that I might be sent back to the abyss. It feels like yesterday."

"I have always believed in you, and you will never be worse than anyone else." Alyosha drank a glass of bighorn sheep blood wine, his eyes sparkling: "I knew that my vision would not be wrong."

Andre couldn't help but smile: "Fortunately, I listened to Mr. Huang Jia's advice... At that time, I didn't know that he was a big shot."

"Who knows?" Alyosha licked the blood at the corner of his mouth: "I didn't expect that he would climb Qianyuan Mountain alone. Even the masters Taixi and Fahai over there couldn't stop him. Could he be a god? For example, Lord Wuji, or Lord Ju?"

The husband shook his head: "Don't guess. Now the streets are full of bearded men, and each of them has trained their bodies to be muscular. This is also the trend and trend left by Mr. Huang Jia... It was not like this before."

While the couple was chatting, there was a knock on the door behind them.

The visitor was a young apprentice of the Temple Society.

He handed Andre a letter with sweat all over his face: "Please check the latest order of the Temple. I'm leaving first, and I have to go to the next scholar's house."

Andre opened the wax seal and fell silent after reading the official letter inside.

"What's wrong?" Alyosha saw that her husband's face was not right, and asked carefully.

Andre put away the letter: "The Temple has selected me as one of the core scholars to support the Resurrection Kingdom. I will lead the magic team and build the magic tower there."

"Resurrection Kingdom?"

Alyosha wiped his lips with a handkerchief, his face full of joy: "I heard that the Prophet Cat Grass... No, Lord Cat Grass needs some manpower, and they are all elites in various industries. Dear Andre, you have been recognized by the Apostles and the Prophet this time!"

"..."

Andre sighed: "Alyosha, the Resurrection Kingdom is in a war."

"Ah? Can you refuse? It's too dangerous to fight." His wife was surprised.

"Of course not. This is a call-up and an honor."

Andre's smile was somewhat helpless and desolate: "I'm not worried about what's going on there, but you. I don't know when I can finish this trip and return. I'm really an incompetent husband."

Alyosha frowned.

She pursed her lips, and suddenly her eyes lit up: "I'll go with you! When the war comes, doctors will definitely be needed. I'm a doctor with many years of experience, and they can use me. I'll apply to go there too."

As soon as he said it, Alyosha went to the Temple Council with Andre and expressed his willingness to go there to support. Originally, the Temple Council disagreed, but at the joint request of the couple, considering the separation of the two, the prophet Longji finally agreed as an exception.

...

Arriving at the Resurrection Empire, Andre could clearly feel the tense atmosphere here.

There were patrolling skeleton soldiers everywhere, and the skeleton knights rode bone horses one by one, shuttling across the city borders, constantly delivering news from afar.

The Yao clan's support personnel were all concentrated in the royal city, in the safest place. There are two official teams here, one is the Mage Team and the other is the Ghost Team.

The mages built the Mage Tower as a sentry tower and fortress outside the kingdom; the ghosts started to build the Ghost Lighthouse to accommodate ghosts and serve as a platform for transmitting information.

The two teams complement each other. The Mage Tower plays the role of protecting the Ghost Lighthouse, which is essentially a technical support for the Resurrection Kingdom.

The enemy has not appeared, but the clouds of war have not dissipated. The huge Resurrection Kingdom is in a state of war readiness, and the slightest disturbance will arouse fear in everyone's hearts.

Andre was stationed outside [Kencheng] and saw it with his own eyes several times.

One day, a strange fog appeared in the sky, and it did not dissipate until the sun rose.

The white-boned ancestors in the farmland shouted in fear: "The enemy is coming, the enemy is coming! Hide quickly!"

They ran back in fear and hid behind the Mage Tower.

The Skeleton Knights led the Skeleton Soldiers to be on high alert, set up a tight defense line, and confronted the fog until the afternoon, and announced the lifting of temporary war preparedness only when the fog completely dissipated.

Another time, a group of electric wolves rushed towards the farmers like crazy, which had never happened since the kingdom had wiped out a large number of surrounding areas. Most electric wolves live with their tails between their legs, and they would take a detour or escape when they saw the skeleton soldiers.

But this time the electric wolves didn't care, and ran quickly through the farmland, one by one like crazy, and didn't attack the farmers.

The skeleton ancestors were terrified.

"The enemy is coming, the enemy is coming, even the electric wolves are running away!"

"Run, run!"

The scene became chaotic again.

Later, the army investigated and found out that it turned out that this group of electric wolves had eaten a mad cow and contracted madness, so they were abnormal.

...

Andre once asked Maocao: "My lord, who is the enemy of the Resurrection Kingdom?"

"I don't know."

The apostle gave an answer that he didn't expect at all.

"This is the war preparation order issued by the titled god [Messenger of the Gods]. The God of Martyrdom has issued a formal order. The entire kingdom has entered a wartime alert. The enemy may attack at any time..."

"What I can tell you is that the Messenger is facing a powerful enemy that can strike at the world level. The Twin Snake Empire has been attacked by the enemy, and two cities have become ruins."

"You must be very careful on the front line and protect yourself."

Andre was sweating when he heard it.

The confrontation between the titled gods.

This war, I don't know if he and Alyosha can return alive.

"Don't worry."

Mao Cao seemed to see through his inner thoughts. The apostle with a cat-like appearance said calmly: "There is guidance given by Lord Yao in the temple. I will stay here so that you can return safely. As long as there is still a Yao clan member left in this world who needs help, I will not leave."

...

The situation of panic continued, and the white-bone ancestors were all very nervous.

The army is also constantly training civilians to learn to escape and protect their own safety at the first time, which leads to the skeleton ancestors to think that it is an enemy attack and subconsciously escape when they encounter something wrong.

Andre is not good at commenting on this.

He just stands on the magic tower to ensure that everything in the tower is stable and can cover and radiate the surrounding area. So that the unknown enemy can be contained in the first round of offensive and buy time for civilians to escape.

In fact, the army led by the skeleton knight has been patrolling everywhere.

But no one knows where the enemy will appear, it may be from the sky, it may be in the water, it may be underground, or it may even appear out of thin air like fog.

This is something that even the martyrs cannot judge.

The two apostles, Theodore and Appia, also often come to the front line. Compared with the expressionless soldiers, the two apostles are always worried.

Andre doesn't care about this.

He has been accustomed to this kind of war pressure in the abyss.

Alyosha is the same.

Not only the two of them, the Yao people who are on business trips are generally very relaxed.

In addition to work, the mages and ghosts would play tribal chess together in their spare time, play a local game called "Bone Fighting" with the herdsmen, and have a barbecue party in the evening.

The biggest benefit of the Resurrection Kingdom is that there is a lot of meat here. The Skeleton Ancestors do not need food and can eat whatever they want. The Yao Clan team also continues to comfort the local civilians, teaching them the Yao Clan language and more knowledge. Only by reducing ignorance can they better face and adapt to fear.

Here, Andre met a special friend.

Undead Warrior Charles.

Charles is the ambassador from Dog City, responsible for the trade between Dog City and the Kingdom, but most of the time he stays in [Ken City] and writes the historical records of the Resurrection Kingdom from the perspective of a foreigner.

"War may come at any time, and historical records become more important. I must write down everything that still exists here, so that later generations will know the territory, cities and environmental features that the kingdom once had."

Charles has a serious sense of mission, which makes Andre admire him very much.

This undead warrior is very particular about details. He will ask in detail about the size of the city bricks, measure the length and width of the farmland in person, and ask Andre to help him make a detailed sketch of the Skeleton Ancestors working.

Since Andre is a professional scholar, painting is also a basic skill he has mastered, so he and Charles gradually became familiar with each other.

"Mr. Charles, do you think this war will start? When will it start?"

"War is always on the way, Andre, don't regard it as a burden of fear, but as an opportunity."

The battle-hardened Charles' eyes flashed red, and he held a charcoal pencil in his hand and said: "In Dog City, every war means that we will either perish or become stronger. Don't be afraid of war, because war is like death, it will always exist and appear, just look at when."

"Don't become a prey deterred by war, we must become the master of war, if war is coming, then we will lock its neck and make it our hound. War itself is not terrible, what is terrible is the fear of challenge."

Andre sighed: "It's worthy of Mr. Charles."

The preparation for war lasted for two whole years. During this stage, the kingdom became panic-stricken, many civilians became exhausted, and even the trade with Dog City was greatly affected.

One day in the second year, King Raymond announced: "From today on, the Resurrection Kingdom officially lifted its war preparations and resumed normal production and labor!"

The reason is simple.

The oracle of God Yao descended on the temple of the kingdom.

The god said that the war was over.

Peace returned to the Resurrection Kingdom.
