Necromancer chopping down trees

Chapter 44 Mobilization before the war
The castle was particularly crowded today. The corridors were filled with soldiers, and two teams of soldiers with different styles stood side by side in two rows.

The first row of soldiers were wearing simple tattered clothes, holding rusty iron spears, with pale skin and shouting vague words.

The soldiers in the second row were wearing colorful women's cloth clothes. They were holding sewing tools, with dull eyes and long mouths as they looked forward.

"It seems like they are not very smart."

As the commander of the two teams, Wang Yue briefly glanced at the group of soldiers. Although he was only level 9 now, he had nearly a hundred first-level warriors under his command.

Furthermore, on both sides of him stood senior members of the Breaking Waves whose ranks were unknown. Wang Yue judged that they were all sixth-rank masters, and their strength was comparable to that of the evil dragon in the room.

"It's a pity that the dragon's template is three times that of an ordinary person. If we really fight, it will probably take five people to get close to her..."

Thinking of this, Wang Yue immediately shook her head and forgot all the bad thoughts.

This time he is not here to slay the dragon, but to remove the curse from Miffy.

"What's our plan? Yours or his?"

[First Mate Bai Ge] pointed at Wang Yue, his eyes were on [Pharmacist Baby], and his words were directed at [Captain Peter].

"He has gained my approval, and I have asked all the brothers on the ship to obey his command."

The captain's eyes were wandering, and he seemed not to care about the upcoming battle.

Wang Yue looked at the captain, then at the first mate, and finally at Sis on Baby's shoulder.

"Is it too lame for me to ask this question at this time? Why don't they trigger the plot quickly?"

Wang Yue had been standing at the entrance of [Place of Dusk] for five minutes, but the group of NPCs he brought here still did not make any movement.

"Let me explain."

Baby suddenly threw Sith to Wang Yue, her voice became cold, and her aura changed. It seemed that her soul was temporarily replaced by [Carpenter Bella] in her body.

"I will use the magic of soul separation to separate the curse of the evil dragon."

Halfway through her speech, Bella took out a doll that glowed green.

"This is half of the soul of William, the former owner of the castle... the part that was separated from me."

Sith in Wang Yue's hand added the explanation in time. Wang Yue recalled that after the last battle between Sith and Bella, a green light did run out from Sith's body. Unexpectedly, it was collected in the puppet.

"Oh, I saw this puppet the first time I went to her house. It's called the scapegoat puppet."

Bella shows Wang Yue to everyone and tells them his importance in the plan.

"He has the aura of a god, and can temporarily calm the evil dragon."

Wang Yue patted his chest and asked everyone to leave this matter to him.

The cooldown time of [Breath of Dusk] is 24 hours, so it should not be usable now.

But there is a universal solution - modify the local time.

When no player is logged in, let the game system adjust the time to 12 hours later. This will not cause any impact and can quickly complete the prop update.

"Please be advised that performing this operation after the game is launched will result in an irreversible error."

"Just this once, I will definitely not exploit a bug next time."

As time fast-forwarded 12 hours, it was dark outside again.

"I have successfully tried it once, so there will definitely be no problem this time."

With such confidence from Wang Yue, Bella continued to explain the plan to everyone.

"Finally, I will use the magic of soul overlap to transform William's soul back into a whole."

After Bella said this, she motioned Wang Yue to open the door.

"We're going to fight that William in the corridor?"

The narrow corridor was crowded with people, and they were unable to take advantage of their numbers.

Just as Bella was lost in thought, the soldiers in line made way for her and two skeletons appeared in the team.

"Hey, Goudan, I almost forgot about you. I'm so sorry."

Ever since Wang Yue arrived at the second floor, he left Goudan in the [hall of the ancient castle] without asking about him.

Fortunately, Goudan did not go to the [captivity] with him, otherwise, in that place full of holy light, Goudan, as a dark creature, would definitely be purified immediately.

"My new master."

Although the Skeleton Butler was as tall as Wang Yue, he came here carrying the two-meter-tall Goudan. He looked like a parent educating a naughty child.

"Let's go to the top floor of the castle. There's an open platform there."

There was a sudden sound in the center of the corridor, and the spiral staircase was restructured to become a staircase that continued upwards.

After doing this, the butler bowed to everyone and walked away, leaving Goudan standing there at a loss.

"Captain, first mate, take your men to the top floor and make preparations."

Wang Yue immediately began to organize the clearing of the area. After explaining the tasks to the soldiers, he walked to the end of the team and prepared to let the logistics personnel follow to the top floor.

These secondary occupation representatives are of very high levels, so it is most appropriate to let them raid the battlefield, and they can also provide support in case of accidents.

"Do you have the best materials? I hope I can make a pair of dragon-hide boots for each of you this time."

When Wang Yue reached the end of the team, he happened to see the helmsman Omu holding the leatherworker's hand.

He coughed at an inopportune moment, interrupting Ogi's movements.

"It's time to fight. I'll leave the task of protecting them to you."

The old man Omu, who used to be sarcastic, just nodded, and then he pulled the leatherworker to the top floor.

The chef and the lookout followed behind. When the little boy lookout passed by, Wang Yue specifically told him to cover his eyes and not to look at the adults holding hands, but the little boy ignored him.

……

While leading the soldiers upwards, the captain and the first mate finally started talking.

"I didn't expect that you capable guys would still fail. In the end, you can only rely on an outsider to help you. It's ridiculous."

Peter, whose half body had disappeared, was still acting like a captain, and his tone was superior, but he did not anger the first mate.

"Watch your words Peter. I'm not here to compete with you right now."

The first mate stretched sleepily and patted Peter's sleeves. Since the captain had no arms, his sleeves were empty.

"You are still short of one person. Is he unwilling to come and help? I remember that he has always had a good relationship with Sith."

"You mean the preacher? We asked him, but he said he was busy with the lambs and that we were the only ones needed to solve this battle."

Peter glanced at the first mate's waist and found that he was carrying only a sewing needle.

"Take mine."

The captain had two long swords hanging on his waist, but he only had one arm left, so he lent one of them to the first mate.

"Give it to me, I won't give it back."

Bai Ge didn't hesitate and pulled out one of the swords.

He stroked it gently with his hand and missed the sword very much.

"Do we need to make a pre-war announcement?"

Captain Peter looked back at the crew members who were with him and shook his head.

"That's no longer necessary."
