In the blink of an eye, Li Guang was the only one left standing at the entrance.
Five monsters with lion bodies, human faces and eagle wings fell from the sky. The cavalrymen on the monsters' backs jumped off the "horse" saddles and fell to the ground.
A cavalryman with a dog head carved on his helmet said, "Lizardmen, our order is only to seize the floating city, not to kill us all. If you give up resistance, we will let you go--"
In the blink of an eye, Li Guang rushed to the man with the dog head decorated helmet and slapped him on the chest.
"You are already dead."
The body of the man with the dog head decoration swelled like a balloon, and then his entire upper body exploded!
The cavalryman next to him exclaimed, "Master Centurion!"
The centurion's mount pounced towards Li Guang, but was hit by a palm again and was frozen in place, unable to move.
Li Guang: "You actually took the shock punch, which means you are not a dead thing. I was arbitrary. Please die."
The stone monster that was neither human, nor lion, nor eagle suddenly cracked, and then its head fell off. Its entire upper body shattered into several pieces, and the remaining lower body suddenly lost its vitality and turned into a real stone sculpture.
The other enemies were so shocked that they subconsciously took a step back, but their mounts still looked eager to fight.
At this time, another rider with a dog head decoration on his helmet landed on his stone mount and shouted, "The monk's energy is not infinite. With so many of us, we will eventually use up his energy! I'll go first!"
As he spoke, he urged his mount to charge towards the monk.
Li Guang deflected his lance with a flick of his hand, and slapped the claw of the stone statue that followed. The claw broke immediately, and the cracks spread along the claw and directly transmitted to the centurion's crotch.
Then blood began to flow down the gaps in the skirt armor on the lower body.
"Mine!" exclaimed the centurion. "Mine..."
At this moment, his mount fell to its knees and shattered on the ground. He also fell forward due to inertia and slid to the ground, leaving a thick red streak on the mount which had turned back into a stone statue.
Li Guang stopped and put his hands together: "My sea of energy is indeed not infinite. If you forcibly break through and use your lives to exchange for my energy, my sea of energy will eventually run dry."
After saying that, Li Guang took up his stance again, with his left hand placed behind him with five fingers hanging down, and his right hand stretched forward in a standing palm position.
Then he turned his palm 90 degrees, and the four raised fingers hooked in the direction of Li Guang.
The knights looked at each other, and no one dared to move, including their mounts.
Obviously they were all stunned by Li Guang's speech.
But the next moment, a new centurion appeared: "What are you doing? Do you want to face the wrath of the Imperial Master? Come on!"
The others woke up as if from a dream and rushed forward howling.
**
This is the king.
Rosalie's voice was extremely urgent: "We need rescue! I don't know how long Master Li Guang can hold on! Although he is strong, he can't stand this kind of consumption!"
The king frowned, held up the lich's head and asked, "Do you have a way to quickly destroy three to four hundred cavalrymen riding flying monsters similar to golems?"
Skeleton: "I'm not omnipotent, and I've used up all my high-level spells today.
"But...if there are enough corpses, I can give it a try. As a lich, my mere presence will raise an army of undead creatures. If there are enough corpses, I can raise an army to fight them."
Wang Fu's forehead.
There were indeed many corpses of the cult on the ground of the floating city, but they had been cleaned up. After all, they didn't know if leaving them there would cause some serious plague, so they piled them all together and burned them.
Skeleton: "It seems you don't have that many corpses. Then I can't do anything."
Elizabeth: "I used up my dragon transformation."
Although she said this, she still looked at Wang with expectant eyes, as if as long as she looked at him like this, Wang would say "I have a plan".
Wang: “I have a plan.”
Elizabeth smiled as if she was showing off her victory.
"Xiaobai, take Nini back with you. We will give all the fireball scrolls to Nini! You just fight to tear them apart in the sky and that's it."
Xiaobai: “Yes, sir!”
Marica: "What if there is a legion coming from Catalonia?"
The king turned to the lich and said, "I will take you to the graveyard of Shallow Water. How many undead creatures can you raise?"
Mumu: "That depends on how many people have died in this city."
The king looked at Marika, the only person who knew about Shallow Water City after Flint died.
The drow smiled slightly and said, "Then don't worry. The last thing this city lacks is dead ghosts."
Chapter 202: Sunset of the Principality of Frank
The king was about to say that the problem was solved when Elzam said, "But I need to cast a spell to awaken the undead, which requires hand gestures. A skull alone won't do. You will also need to assemble me for tomorrow's limited wish."
Wang looked at the broken bones on the ground and couldn't help but hold his forehead with his hand.
Not only were they broken, but a lot of bone residue was mixed with other things, and some were stuck to the ground by blood plasma and other things. It would not be easy to recover.
The skull in Wang's hand began to open and close its mouth, making a clicking sound. It used this method to produce its own unique laughter: "Have you ever played a jigsaw puzzle? This time, let's do a three-dimensional puzzle!"
Wang: "Why do I remember that your body reassembled itself the last time I killed you?"
"Ah, that's a body in perfect condition. This body can't do that. Liches are like that. If they are killed too many times in a short period of time, they will become weaker. If I hadn't become weaker, I wouldn't have been defeated by a young man who had just been promoted to the Ninth Ring for such a short time!"
Elzam said solemnly.
Xiaobai, who had transformed into a griffin and was about to carry Nini to carry out the mission assigned by the king, turned back and complained: "I smell a lie! Are you actually weak in combat?"
Skull: "You should worry about how to put me together, otherwise you won't be able to lead the undead to fight against the Catalan army, nor will you be able to revive your dwarf teammates."
Wang: "No need to fight, like this."
After that, he placed the skull head on his own head and took the skull's arms with both hands: "Now you can cast a spell! Let me become your body! Don't worry, I will be able to match your movements!"
The skeleton was silent for a second, then exclaimed, "Is this the wonderful idea that the Tower of the Planeswalkers taught me? I can tell you, I have never cast a spell under such circumstances. The failure of the spell is not my fault!"
When the skeleton spoke, its mouth opened and closed, and it fell directly from the king's head, hit the ground, and rolled under the cabinet next to it.
"Hello? You have so many people who are good at agility, both elves and drow, can't you just connect halfway?"
Nini: "No, answering a talking skull monster is disgusting."
The skull under the cabinet was silent for a second before it yelled, "No matter what, dig me out! Isn't the situation urgent now?"
Wang: "Malika, thank you for your help. Nini, you and Xiaobai, go and save the situation."
Xiaobai pouted, raised his hands and held the back of his head, looking unmotivated and passive: "Eh? It seems like what's going to happen here is going to be fun."
Wang: "Your meat is stored in the basement of the floating city."
"Ah? Damn it!" Xiaobai turned into a griffin, then knocked the ground with his claws and called out to Nini twice.
As soon as Nini rode on Xiaobai, the griffin rushed out of the airship cabin.
Marika also took out the skull at this time. She said to Wang, "I think we can take a helmet strap and pass it through the ear hole of the skull, and then you can wear it as a hat."
Elzam: "Wait a minute! Where's my dignity? I am a nine-ring lich after all!"
Wang: "You are right, act quickly."
After a moment, the "skull cap" was ready. Wang put it on, holding a section of the lich's arm in one hand.
Elizabeth looked at this look and couldn't help laughing: "Hehehe..."
Wang: "Don't laugh! You were hit by the Withering Death Spell and I had to wear this equipment to restore your corpse."
Elzam: "I originally thought that after the Savior Crisis entered the third stage, I would at least be a member of the Savior Team. I didn't expect it to become a piece of equipment, and a suit at that."
Wang: "It's not the third stage yet. You can serve as a piece of equipment and experience what it's like to join the savior team."
Elizabeth: "How about this? We can't let anyone see our rescue team resurrecting the dead. It would be bad if it got out. You can disguise yourself with a robe and claim that it was done by a 1.8 meter tall scary lich with hands and knees."
Wang: “I think so.”
Elzam: "I don't think so. I resurrected the undead to fight against Catalai's invasion. If you do this, Catalai might become a hero of justice, and I will have to bear all the blame."
"Isn't that enough for you to memorize?" Wang asked.
The lich was immediately silenced.
Wang: "Tell me quickly, where are you going to cast the spell?"
As he asked the question, Elizabeth, who was in full action, began to take off the robe of the master of the cult. Marika hurried forward and said, "Wait, let me do it. After all, we don't know if this beast has anything underneath. It's not appropriate for the princess to see some things."
"Oh, please."
Elizabeth stepped back and turned away.
Later it turned out that Marika's worries were unnecessary. The master was a decent man and was still wearing proper clothes.
When the robe was put on the king, he looked like a skeleton with hands like a gibbon.
Elizabeth: “Well, it’s evil.”
Wang: "Let's try a trick first, a light spell."
**
While Wang and his men were making preparations, the Imperial Army on the ground was launching an attack on the dock area and the Grand Duke's Palace of the Principality of Frank.
Nobles in most countries live in castles, but this is not the case in Shallow Water City.
The main shallow water city is located on the edge of a shallow swamp, and there is no hard ground to build a solid stone fortress. Therefore, although the Grand Duke's Palace has defenses, they are all wooden walls with a little stone reinforcement. Only the walls of the Grand Duke's Palace itself are made of lime and bricks, and the roof is still made of wood.
As soon as the Catalan army arrived, they fired a row of rockets at the roof of the Grand Ducal Palace. If the wood used to build the roof of the Grand Ducal Palace had not been made of yew wood bought from upstream and was not easily ignited, the Grand Ducal Palace would have turned into an oven.
The legionnaires fired their rounds into the wooden wall and rammed the wooden door of the Grand Duke's Palace with battering rams.
Grand Duke Frank was on the second floor of the Duke's Mansion, looking outside with worry: "Lancelot, what on earth is Catalai going to do?"
The intelligence chief said darkly, "It's obvious that they want this country. Yi Songzuo and his men's actions were relatively mild before, but they didn't act this time. They should have seen through that the River Region countries are just soft persimmons that can be easily squeezed."
Archduke Frank: "If we surrender now, is it possible for us to become Catalonia's agent here?"
The intelligence chief shook his head: "Given the precedent of Yi Songzuo, I'm afraid it's impossible."
After Isonzo was annexed by Catalonia, the original ruler became Catalonia's agent, playing a game of pretending to obey while pretending not to obey. He also took advantage of the conflict between the Catalan royal family and the national teacher to please both sides.
With the precedent of Isonzo, Catalonia will probably send a governor directly to the Principality of Frank.
