While Nami is still young, invite her to join my ship!

Chapter 253



The enemy came prepared, and the situation in the rear was unclear. The scale of this action was too large, and things might not be that simple.

Achilles also knew that something must have happened in the rear, and there was no time to tangle with the Frost King and the Styx.

The two were preparing to target Achilles, and they must have a backup plan.

The point was that the ability displayed by the Frost King was too strange, and Achilles had never seen such a method.

It was neither magic nor energy call in any sense, but a direct call to the rules and the origin.

It touched the root of everything, which Achilles had experienced before.

And the undead over there, he was not the body of the Styx, and his so-called uncle was naturally not an ordinary hider.

Unless he was sure, he would not show up in person.

Speaking of his uncle, Zorn Musa, his name was not the Styx, and the origin of this name was also very ancient.

That was forty years ago, when the Aaron Empire was unprecedentedly strong, and that kind of strength was not built on a certain person.

Because Achilles was only an eleven-year-old child at that time.

At that time, Zorn Musa and Achilles' father were the commanders of the Empire's Black and Red Cavalry respectively.

In the same year, the royal family of the Woma Empire declared war on Aaron unilaterally, and the decisive battle took place in the Styx.

That battle was known as the Styx Battle, which lasted for two years. The situation gradually changed from the Aaron Empire's comprehensive crushing of the Woma Empire at the beginning.

The front line was defeated, and the Woma Empire counterattacked the Aaron Empire!

Achilles' father unfortunately died in one of the battles, and the culprit of all this came from a man named Owonaka.

That man was a member of the royal family of the Woma Empire at that time. He had an extraordinary magical talent and became a pseudo-legendary magician at the age of thirty.

This man is one of the four strongest people in the world today, the father of Ms. Red Duke.

He single-handedly flattened the front line of the Aaron Empire's army in the Styx!

Achilles didn't know the process of that battle clearly. He only remembered that in the end, it was his uncle, Zon Musa, who led the Black Knights to push the front line back.

He even killed the pseudo-legendary magician!

Zon Musa became famous in one battle because the battle took place in the Styx. In order to commemorate his extraordinary contribution, the old king awarded the Styx to Zon Musa and promoted him to Duke.

So people began to call him the Duke of the Styx or the Commander of the Styx.

It's a pity that he failed to keep this glory and honor.

Four years later, all his taboo experiments and research were exposed, and the truth of the year also surfaced.

It turned out that Zon Musa had been conducting research on the School of Necromancer and had achieved amazing results!

And the reason why he won the battle of the Styx was that he turned all the dead into undead!

This also explains why there were no prisoners in that battle, and all those who knew about it were executed on the spot.

The people who survived were all the trusted generals of the Styx.

Perhaps this was nothing, at most they used some shady means to win the war.

But Aaron's country is a country with a dual parliamentary system, and the power of the church is greater than that of the king!

The church strictly prohibits all research on the School of Necromancer, and all knowledge that touches on the School of Necromancer will be immediately eliminated once discovered!

All those involved will also be executed in secret, and then they will use mithril and holy water to dissolve the bones.

To prevent necromancers from resurrecting these people or talking to them with the dead.

Because although they are dead, their knowledge is still there, and holy water and mithril can make necromancy ineffective.

In addition to the church, all countries also hate the doctrine of necromancy.

This has been since ancient times, and it stems from the fear and hatred that was engraved into the instinct during the "Broken War"!

This alone is enough to make the Styx suffer the wrath of the whole world!

Even the old king at that time acquiesced to the church's decision to execute the Styx.

Although he had wanted to kill the Styx for a long time, he had never had a reasonable excuse.

The reason why he wanted to kill the Styx was more complicated. The Styx was very ambitious. His territory and the legions under his command expanded year by year. He formed cliques in the kingdom and often coerced and bribed various dukes and nobles to cooperate with him.

He seemed to be ready to rebel at any time. If he didn't get rid of him, the old king would be unable to sleep or eat.

So, who leaked the fact that the Styx was studying necromancy?

The answer is already very clear, it was Achilles.

He did this at the time for self-protection.

Because the Styx planned to refine him into a new type of undead, a dead creature called abomination.

When he learned the truth,He was not in a hurry to expose the Styx, but took the initiative to cooperate with the Styx's experiment.

He did not expose the Styx's experiment until he completely gained the Styx's trust.

The situation at that time was really like walking on a tightrope. He could not escape the Styx's territory by himself.

The only way was to gain the trust of the Styx, be careful at every step, and slowly wait for an opportunity.

Needless to say, Achilles killed his relatives for the sake of justice, was appreciated by the church, and became the youngest apprentice of the Temple.

...

Achilles stabbed the ground with a sword, and a loud rumble resounded on the ground!

A huge holy light barrier was opened, directly separating the Frost King and the group of corpse ghosts under his command!

The undead beside the Frost King saw this and made a creaking sound on his bones, "Damn it, I almost forgot... Although my nephew looks dull, he has been playing tricks on me since he was a child!"

Looking at the huge light curtain in front of him, the Frost King's face was strange.

What does this mean?

Barrier?

The undead reached out and grabbed the reins of the skeleton horse, and turned around and left.

He said something, but the Frost King couldn't understand it until the White Walker next to him relayed it, "He said there was no need to chase him anymore, Achilles abandoned his sword and ran away."

Abandoned the sword?

The Frost King looked at the White Walker next to him, and his eyes indicated the huge light wall in front of him.

The White Walker instantly understood what the Frost King meant, and quickly commanded his subordinates to rush towards the light curtain.

The result was the same as the invisible barrier around Achilles, no matter how hard they tried, they couldn't break it.

Achilles' holy sword was stuck in the ground, constantly releasing waves of light.

"In other words, he stuck the holy sword here as a barrier to stop us, and then rode away on his horse?"

"What if we break the barrier and take the holy sword?"

The Frost King threw this question to the Styx, but the Styx sneered.

"If you have the ability, then go get it."

From his tone, I'm afraid he will explode if he takes the holy sword?

It's hard to say. Frost King roughly estimated the position of the light curtain. It spreads endlessly upwards and is also wide on the left and right.

It's also a bit troublesome that you can't see the end.

But there is no way, you can only find a way to go around it.

Just when Frost King was thinking about this, the space in front of him suddenly twisted!

A figure appeared out of thin air and came directly in front of Frost King!

"Good evening∽"

"Oh, is it daytime here?"

The visitor had a weird smile and held two flying knives in his hands.

This is an old acquaintance of Frost King.

"Did that lord send you here, or did Qin Leng send you here?"
