Chapter 886: The Corpse Cave

Chapter 895 Corpse Cave

"Tell me the details now!" Kaslo patted Lance's shoulder and asked while comforting him.

"The situation is terrible! We don't even know where the enemy comes from! The flying dragon knight can only scout from high altitude and found traces of soil turning, indicating that these things crawled out from the ground!" Lance shook his head and sighed.

"We are short of troops and have no manpower to conduct in-depth reconnaissance. We can't even find an assassin in the entire Pingnan City!" Lance said with some heart collapse. There are skeleton soldiers who can attack from a distance below. The scouts under Lance's command who have no assassins dare not even leave the city!

"...Hiss! Did you beat them like this?" Kaslo, who was walking and watching with Lance, was stunned. After all, the tragic scene in front of him was completely unlike the once elite Stream Infantry Corps!

"The detachment of the Third Corps was completely defeated!" Lance said with some shame. The soldiers of the Stream Third Corps were stationed in Pingnan City, and these soldiers had basically lost their combat effectiveness.

"These Swift Stream Infantrymen have been replaced! If we continue to fight, we will need women to go to the battlefield!" Lance said with some discomfort. As the first batch of residents to open up the city, they are naturally young and strong laborers, and these people are all candidates for the Swift Stream Infantrymen in reserve. In order to resist the undead army, after the militia was recruited, most of the men in the city basically went to the battlefield. Now most of those who stick to their posts are reserve militiamen, and the real elite Swift Stream Infantrymen are basically lying down!

"Don't worry! I won't do that here!" Kaslo comforted.

"Those damn things will crawl out when night falls! We don't even know where they are hiding! We only know that they are everywhere at night!" Lance's body trembled slightly, and he was extremely depressed by the battle suppressed by the undead!

"Well, don't worry, I'll go and see, you continue to command the soldiers to strengthen the city defense, and I'll go to investigate around!" Kaslo pondered for a moment and decided to do a human investigation himself. If there is really something that can kill him, he will accept it! It's better for the sixth-level dragon rider to die if he lives to this extent!

"Be careful, we can't support you too much!" Lavian came over and sighed.

"Sir Kaslo, can I go with you?" Mogus, covered in dust, came over with a spear. Last night, he blocked several gaps by himself, killing people around him with thick smoke. According to the law of smoke without injury, these undead are useless except for painting his armor!

"No need, you have a good rest! There may be a hard battle tonight, and we need every bit of strength!" Kaslo shook his head. Although the rock hero Mogus is also a sixth-level professional and has the ability to fly, it is based on the consumption of fighting spirit. Besides, no matter how fast the hero flies, it can't match the speed of the dragon knight!

"Then be careful!" Mogus looked at Kaslo and nodded slowly.

"Yes!" Kaslo signaled to everyone and summoned his dragon, then stepped on the dragon saddle and flew into the sky.

"I hope Kaslo can find the root of all this!" Lance said sincerely.

…

"Kardo, have you found anything? The intelligence shows that these skeletons have dragon power! I just felt the residual dragon power on those broken skeletons! What about you?" After leaving the sight of everyone, Kaslo frowned. Obviously, he also felt that the situation was difficult for him, but he couldn't show it in front of everyone just now. Now that he was alone with Cardo, he didn't need to pretend.

"It's dragon power! I haven't seen that kind of dragon power! It looks like the dragon power of the ice dragon clan, but it is much colder than the ice dragon!" Cardo hesitated and said uncertainly.

"Magic dragon? It doesn't look like it!" Kaslo shook his head. After all, there are magic dragons in the kingdom. How can he not understand the source of his little apprentice's power? It is obviously different from the dragon power of the magic dragon!

"Feel the dragon power! Let's go find the last place where they stayed and appeared!" Kaslo narrowed his eyes. It seems that he needs to take the risk to explore in depth.

...

"Here?" Kaslo's eyelids twitched, and he pointed to the dark cave under his feet. Obviously, this cave was a little too deep. The diameter was almost the same as the hole dug by Azog with the ground snake during the Lonely Mountain Battle! And the cave wall was covered with claw marks! Those claw marks even polished the cave wall! Standing here, Kaslo seemed to feel the countless undead pouring out.

"Well, that's right, it's here! There should be such caves in other places, and the destinations they lead to are probably the same!" Cardo said seriously.

"Haha! Do you think we are like the dungeons and warriors in knight novels? It's just that the warriors go to the dungeons to slay dragons! And I go to the dungeons with dragons!" Kaslo laughed self-deprecatingly.

"Slay the dragon..." Cardo looked at Kaslo with complicated eyes, raised his neck to indicate, obviously he was not angry because Kaslo said the words of slaying the dragon, but really felt that Kaslo might have to slay the dragon on this trip.

"I shouldn't be so unlucky, right? Why do I always encounter good things?" Kaslo thought about how he had walked on thin ice all the way. He had fought against Balrogs, fought against heroes, and killed Ringwraiths. He was not inferior to anyone in his life! Your Majesty! Do you think I can reach the other side?

"..." Cardo was silent. Guess who was beaten most of the time when you encountered good things?

"Come on, let's go down!" Kaslo patted his dragon, and Cardo flashed and turned into a small dragon and coiled on Kaslo's shoulder.

"Be careful! Open your dragon eyes!" Cardo whispered as he closed his wings.

"Hmm!" As Kaslo opened his eyes again, his original eyes had turned into golden vertical pupils!

"The breath here is really disgusting!" As the dragon eyes opened, Kaslo had a clear view of the cave.

"Let's go!" Kaslo drew out his sword and inserted it into the cave as a buffer, then jumped down and slid down along the inclined cave wall.

"Plop! Crack!" Kaslo landed on the ground very easily, but the strange sound under his feet startled him. He lowered his head and saw that it was some bone fragments. As he raised his head and looked deeper...

"Fuck!" Kaslo was so anxious that he cursed like Roland. The layers of bones on the ground piled up into a mountain of bones. Looking at the shape of these skeletons, it was basically certain that they were the culprits!

"Something is wrong! Where are their soul fires!" Cardo was stunned. Skeletons without soul fire are called skeletons, while those with soul fire are called undead!

"These are all skeletons! How can they move without the support of soul fire!" Kaslo picked up the bones on the ground in confusion. The dark purple blood stains on his claws showed that this guy was also a member of the attack last night!

"Something is wrong! How can the undead retreat? Shouldn't this thing be fearless?" This discovery made Kaslo lose confidence.

"You ask me who should I ask! Hiss! Why do I feel so creepy! This is a dwarf! This seems to be an elf! This is a northern human... Why are there skeletons of all races?" Cardo said with a puzzled sound.

"Was this an ancient battlefield before? I haven't heard of it! Could it be the former heroes of the empire?" Kaslo raised his eyebrows.

"Ah? Do you mean that the bodies that have been buried by priests can still be summoned?" Cardo complained.
