Translator: WQL Editor: Aleem It was already late at night. It was about 1 am. The human camp was still under construction. Of course, the tents of the officials had already been built. Only the soldiers' houses were left.
"Marshal!" When Li Huailin suddenly appeared at this late hour, Maccon, who was still awake, immediately came over to greet him. "Marshal, why are you so late? I thought you had gone to rest. Do you have any orders?"
"Oh, prepare to take down Loggerland City tonight," Li Huailin said casually.
"Oh, I see … Wait …" Maccon didn't react at first, but he soon realized something was wrong. "Marshal, what did you say? Attack the city tonight?"
"Yes," Li Huailin nodded.
"This …" Maccon didn't know what to do. Although they only slaughtered civilians today, the soldiers were exhausted. After all, there were many of them, and each soldier had killed more than three people on average. Moreover, they still had to build the camp at night. To be honest, they were so tired that they almost couldn't stand. Seeing the situation, Maccon immediately told them to rest. Now that they actually had to attack the city tonight, it was a bit difficult. However, since it was the Marshal's order, there was nothing they could do. Maccon thought for a moment, "Alright, Marshal, I will go get the assembly order now."
"Wait, wait, wait …" Li Huailin suddenly waved his hand. "Oh, no need for the 2nd Legion. The Undead have agreed to attack the city tonight, and we only need them. However, the Undead don't have any siege weapons. We have to make as many as we can and send them to the Undead."
"The Undead are attacking the city?" Maccon was slightly stunned, but he thought it was a good idea. The Undead had a natural advantage; they had very little sleep, and they were especially powerful at night. If the Undead fought at night while the Humans fought during the day, the opposing Dwarves wouldn't be able to hold on without rest. However, although it was a good idea, Maccon didn't really trust the Undead. "Marshal, can we leave it to the Undead? I feel that it's a bit strange that the Undead have agreed to form an alliance with us. I feel like something is wrong and strange. Moreover, I've been hearing strange sounds coming from the Undead's side since the beginning. It sounded like a big explosion, and it seemed to be mixed with the cries of strange beasts … "
"Ahem …" Maccon naturally heard Li Huailin studying his skills. After the first time, Li Huailin activated his skills three times to study what was going on. The data he obtained was really abnormal.
First of all, Li Huailin found a few Undead and discovered that the Black Beast's physical attacks were ridiculously powerful. A single slap from it dealt over 8000 damage. Moreover, the Black Beast had a ridiculous knockback effect. Next was its Skills. All of its Skills were dark-type attacks. Moreover, they seemed to ignore both friend and foe. Its AoE AoE attacks and Aurora attacks could wipe out the Undead's own troops. Not only that, but its self-destruction could also kill the Undead. This was a bit dangerous. If he used up his skills in the midst of the Undead army, he would explode and kill everyone around him.
However, Li Huailin soon discovered another problem. He could cancel the skill on his own. Of course, he couldn't save time even if he canceled the skill. He would still have to wait for 45 minutes before he could use it again. Even if he canceled the skill on his own, it would still trigger a self-destruct skill. Basically, it felt like an active self-destruct.
This was the result of Li Huailin's research so far. Of course, there were a few Undead soldiers who sacrificed themselves for the country in order to study his skills. But they were Undead Dwarves who had just been resurrected, so it didn't matter if they died. There were plenty of them anyway.
"You don't have to worry about that for now. The Undead are still very reliable." Li Huailin thought for a moment and said, "There will be a lot of movement tonight. Don't send out your troops if you hear anything. Don't rest tonight. I'll get someone to contact you later. Then you can send out your troops."
"Oh, yes, Marshal." Macken nodded. He still didn't know that Li Huailin planned to take down Loggerland City in one night. He thought it was just an ordinary attack to deplete the stamina of the soldiers in the city. Otherwise, he would have been so shocked that his jaw would have dropped to the ground.
After giving out his orders, Li Huailin once again returned to the Undead camp. At this time, the Undead army was basically assembled. They were just waiting for the human army's siege equipment and Li Huailin's orders.
"Your Highness." Seeing Li Huailin appear, Sulfur and Soudeis immediately came over and said, "The army has been assembled. We can attack at any time."
"The humans have also agreed to lend us siege equipment. Speaking of which, our army is in such a miserable state. Don't you have an engineering team?" Li Huailin asked.
"We did, but they died in the battle with the humans …" Sulfur said in a low voice.
"Oh." Li Huailin remembered. On the first day of the war against the Undead, they had wiped out a logging team of 3000 people. That group of people was probably an engineering team. "Alright, no matter what, once the human army's siege equipment arrives, we should prepare to move out."
"Your Highness, how should we attack?" Soudeis asked.
"Hmm …" Li Huailin thought for a moment. "How about this. After half an hour, the army will directly attack Loggerland City. Regardless of everything, we will rush up the walls. The main direction of attack is the city gate. Try to open it as soon as possible."
"Attack the city gate?" Soudeis nodded. "But if we do that, we will suffer great losses. Moreover, we may not be able to take it down."
"Trust me, it won't be that difficult. Just climb up the walls and occupy the city gate. Leave the rest to me," Li Huailin said.
"Uh …" Although he didn't know what was going on, seeing how confident Li Huailin was, Soudeis could only nod. "Yes, Your Highness."
"Your Highness, don't worry. I will definitely be the first to reach the city wall!" Sulfur immediately said. He didn't know what Rhode meant by the commander-in-chief should be in charge of the army. Anyway, he felt that being the first to reach the city wall should be the greatest achievement.
"Alright, I will leave this place to you. Pay attention to the time. The attack will begin in half an hour, so when the siege equipment arrives, we can move out," Li Huailin said again.
"Yes, Your Highness." Soudeis nodded.
After giving instructions to both sides, Li Huailin felt that he should be able to move out. Naturally, the first thing he needed to do was to go to the vicinity of Loggerland City. The camp here was still more than ten kilometers away from the city. Li Huailin rode on Millet and quickly arrived at Loggerland City.
The first thing that entered his eyes was the mountains and plains of corpses. There were so many corpses that there was no time to deal with them. Although it was already late at night, with the moonlight, he could still see the corpses scattered all over the ground. There were so many corpses that even the Undead couldn't deal with them. These days, the Undead Priests had been so busy that they didn't even have time to rest. Moreover, although there were many corpses, they were the corpses of commoners, so the quality wasn't high. They could only summon the most basic Undead soldiers. Although their numbers were frightening, their actual combat strength was very low. Even the Undead that were lacking corpses had begun to pick the stronger ones.
I looked up at Loggerland City. Although it was already late at night, the city walls were still brightly lit. Looking at the squads of Dwarven soldiers walking back and forth on the city walls, it seemed like the Dwarves hadn't let down their guard. The defense was still very tight.
Li Huailin could not help but sigh as he looked at the towering walls of Roglan City from up close. This was indeed a sturdy city. Normally, it would be too difficult to take down this city within three days. Fortunately, he had a freak like himself.
Although the city was right in front of him, Li Huailin had no intention of transforming into his Black Beast and charging towards the city walls. First, the city walls were incredibly sturdy. Even if Li Huailin transformed, he wouldn't be able to reach the height of the city walls. After transforming, he estimated that he would be 15 meters tall, while the city walls in front of him were 20 meters tall. Even if he transformed, he wouldn't be able to scale them. Second, Li Huailin wasn't sure if he could directly attack the city walls after transforming. After all, he was a player. He could attack monsters, but he didn't know how the city walls worked. Li Huailin had only seen catapults capable of destroying city walls. He wasn't sure if he could destroy them after transforming.
However, Li Huailin had no intention of directly attacking the city walls. There was no need for that at all. He had just come up with an even simpler method.
After putting away Millet, Li Huailin equipped Ghostly Light and immediately activated Black Beast's Descent. After a terrifying roar, the gigantic Black Beast crawled out of Li Huailin's corpse and stood under the city walls. At this time, the Dwarven soldiers on the city walls heard the roar. However, Li Huailin was still quite a distance away from the city. Moreover, the Black Beast was simply too dark, so they didn't know what was going on. They also didn't dare to leave the city to investigate, so they could only report the matter to their superiors.
After transforming, Li Huailin didn't immediately charge forward. Instead, he grabbed his own corpse on the ground and aimed in the direction of the city. Then, he threw his corpse forward with his right hand. Naturally, he used Dark Throw.
Li Huailin's corpse flew through the air in an arc, then directly smashed into a building in Roglan City with a loud thud. Looking at his corpse flying into the city, Li Huailin nodded slightly, then directly deactivated his transformed state.
After a huge explosion, the Black Beast turned into a plume of black smoke and flew into Loggerland.
