Secret: The undead do not die in the fire

Chapter 367: Bullying the weak
In the Rorsted Sea, under the cover of darkness and fog, the Sonia Sea Fleet of the Feysac Empire was quietly approaching Bayam.

On the flagship of the Feysac Empire's Sonia Fleet, the 'Nepos', a burly Yegor Einhorn, who was over two meters tall and had a thick beard on his lips, was sitting behind a desk with a map on it, drinking Sonia blood wine while thinking about the next arrangements:
"The recent surprise attack destroyed a large number of ports and factories in Loen, and the fleet docked at the port also suffered damage."

"It's a pity that only one of Loen's three major ironclad fleets was repaired in Pritz Harbor, and the other two fleets were on missions outside at the time. Otherwise, once these three ironclad fleets were destroyed, the Sonia Sea would completely become Feysac's inland sea."

"However, with only two armored fleets left, the Kingdom of Loen is already stretched to the limit."

"The Disi Bay in the south must always have an armored fleet to guard against surprise attacks from the Feynapotter Kingdom, so the only thing that can be deployed in the Sonia Sea is an armored fleet and a corresponding airship formation..."

"It is unwise to confront Loen's ironclad fleet head-on. Although I am the 'Iron Knight' and can concentrate the power of the entire fleet on myself and distribute the damage, the commander of that ironclad fleet is likely to be a demigod of the 'Arbitrator' path, or have a corresponding '1' level seal, so he is not so easy to deal with... If we are not careful, they will take advantage of our speed and naval guns..."

"In that case, my fleet will also likely suffer heavy damage, and the final result will only be a lose-lose situation for both sides."

"If a direct confrontation is not favorable, then we can only take advantage of the fact that the Loen Navy has suffered damage and is temporarily short of numbers to continue attacking coastal ports..."

"But the Loen side must have made corresponding preparations. It is difficult to attack the port quietly and retreat unscathed. Moreover, the battle line is too long, and it is difficult to get support from other troops. It is easy to be blocked by the Loen Kingdom's ironclad fleet in the West Sunia Sea and be forced to engage in a fleet decisive battle with the Loen side. This goes back to the problem just now - in a head-on confrontation with the fleet, we cannot gain the upper hand."

"In this case, the strategic significance of attacking Loen will be greatly reduced, and it will put us in danger. In comparison, attacking Bayam is undoubtedly the wisest choice!"

“Even if Feysac can destroy or even occupy the ports of Pritz Harbor and other ports located in the mainland of the Kingdom of Loen, support from the land of the Kingdom of Loen will continue to pour in, trying to retake the ports. Without supplies and support, it will be difficult for us to defend these ports.”

"The difference is that Bayam also has a large number of ports and factories, but it is far away from Loen and has been plagued by the rebels for a long time. If we can occupy this place, we can cut off the fleet communication between the Loen Kingdom's Western Sonia Sea, Central Sonia Sea, and Eastern Sonia Sea. Any route along the way will be at risk of being attacked by us."

"By then, the Kingdom of Loen will only have two strategies—"

“Either do everything in your power to retake Bayam, or abandon Bayam and all colonies in the Eastern Sonia Sea and retreat to the Western Sonia Sea!”

“And this way, Feysac can completely seize the initiative. Whether it is to defend Bayam and confront Loen, or to use Bayam as a springboard to attack the ports of the West Suonia Sea and Loen’s mainland, the initiative is in our hands!”

"The only problem is that Bayam is the capital of the Loen Kingdom's colony in the Rorsted Sea, so it's not that easy to capture."

"But fortunately, the rule of the Loen people has always been unpopular in the local area. I don't expect those natives to occupy Bayam, but at least they can cause trouble for the Loen people and tie up most of their troops. By then, as long as the fleet successfully lands, the fall of Bayam will be inevitable!"

"Haha, such a war is indeed a good opportunity to digest the potion. It's a pity that I couldn't become a 'War Bishop' before this, otherwise I might have the opportunity to be promoted to the rank of angel after the war. Alas, only a 'War Bishop' can truly bring out the advantages of an army, instead of just concentrating the power on myself like I am now..."

As Yegor Einhorn’s thoughts raced, he was about to use the Iron Knight’s hidden connection with his soldiers to notify his lieutenant to come over and instruct him to attack Bayam at night.

Suddenly, Yegor's expression changed because he could not sense the presence of his adjutant.

This was definitely the worst case scenario for a veteran Iron Knight! Because it meant that either someone had quietly killed his adjutant, or his connection with his adjutant and his men had been cut off!
No matter which one it is, it is not good news for Yegor!

As a veteran "Iron Knight", Yegor instinctively considered the worst case scenario and immediately tried to awaken the connection established between him and every sailor and soldier on the "Nepos".

But all his struggles seemed to fall into the sea and received no response.

Yegor's expression changed drastically, and he was about to rush out of the captain's room, but the next second he suddenly heard a roar - it was the roar of the 'High Priest of Disaster', which was enough to make even the demigods lose consciousness temporarily!
Roar!
Amid the roar, Yegor's ears suddenly heard a buzzing sound and his head felt dizzy.

He subconsciously wanted to spread the damage, causing every member of the Nepos to have a slight tinnitus. But the problem was that the connection between him and the other crew members had been cut off!

Yegor gritted his teeth, suppressed the dizziness and pain in his mind, grabbed the pen on the table and threw it towards the door.

This dark red fountain pen left an afterimage along the way, like a cannonball being fired. For an Iron Knight, even the most ordinary things can become terrifying killing weapons under the enhancement of his characteristics!
boom!
The door that was shot by the pen broke open, revealing the attacker in the corridor.

There were four attackers in total, two men and two women.

The lady with long curly brown hair stepped back behind the other three, because for her, she had done what she was supposed to do.

She used space hiding to separate the captain's room and the 'Nepos' into two different spaces. Once this area was hidden, even if the 'mystic' wanted to get out, he could only go through the door or unhide it, otherwise he would be blocked by the endless darkness.

This means that no one can leave the captain's room before the winner is decided!

The reason why the space hiding and dividing of the Captain's Room and the Nepos was so smooth was due to the extraordinary ability of Ms. Hermit. She had become a Sequence 4 Mystic and possessed the extraordinary ability of Mystic Reappearance, which allowed her to create magic or witchcraft. The fewer people knew about the corresponding mystical knowledge, and the less it was spread, the more powerful this spell would be.

With the support of her 'adoptive mother' Bernadette, she happens to know many unknown secret magics - for example, Nan Ke Yi Meng.

This extraordinary ability has the effect of anti-divination and anti-prophecy, which can make everything that happens here be regarded as a dream and will not be noticed by people in a short time.

It is precisely because they belong to different spaces that the connection between Yegor, the "Iron Knight", and his subordinates was cut off.

An 'Iron Knight' who cannot 'link' with his subordinates is just like a 'Mystic Mage' who cannot use teleportation, a 'Trickster' who cannot use secret puppets, and a 'Parasite' who cannot use back-theft. Deprived of their strongest extraordinary abilities, they have almost no chance of winning against other demigods, not to mention that he has more than one enemy.

"Four demigods!"

Yegor's pupils shrank suddenly. He knew the basic number of demigods in this world, but he didn't understand why there were suddenly four more demigods, let alone why they wanted to hunt him!

But he understood one truth - that is, he absolutely could not fight four people at once. So the only thing he could do now was to ask for help!

Yegor did not hesitate at all, and immediately tried to recite the name of the 'Supreme Commander' of the Sonia Sea War Zone, who was a 'weather sorcerer' from the royal family.

But when he opened his mouth and wanted to pronounce the honorific name of the 'Weather Warlock', his mind suddenly went blank and his thoughts almost froze.

All the thoughts and ideas that popped into his mind were stolen in an instant!
He had no chance to call for help, and couldn't even think of saving himself!
At this moment, Alger, who had just used "Roar", also made a move. In his hand, he held a short staff made of white bones. The top of the staff was inlaid with tiny blue-green gems, some of which were stained with dark black, and some were covered with morning light. It was surrounded by countless pure light points, and illusory prayers emanated from it, layer upon layer, showing its holiness.

That was the Poseidon Scepter bestowed upon him by Mr. Fool, corresponding to the level of Sequence 3!
And now that Alger has become the 'High Priest of Disaster', he is barely qualified to use this scepter!

Boom!

Silver-white electric snakes leaped out, and countless silver-white lightning appeared, as if forming a sea of ​​thunder. They carried a strong aura of destruction, and seemed to completely annihilate the entire captain's room along with Yegor!
Rumble!
Amid the rumbling thunder, thick and brilliant lightning bolts struck simultaneously or successively, and the magnificent captain's room disappeared in an instant.

The dazzling light enveloped Yegor who was in it and lasted for a full twenty seconds.

When the light of the silver-white lightning gradually weakened, the covered figure appeared before their eyes - it was Yegor who had been chopped into charcoal!

The gorgeous admiral uniform on his body had long since disappeared without a trace, and his flesh and blood had been 'melted' by the lightning, leaving only a curled up ball of charred charcoal.

But he is still alive. Even though there is not a single drop of flesh and blood left on his body, and only a lump of charcoal remains, he is still alive and strong!

The charred lips moved, as if wanting to say something.

But he didn't say it in the end, because his last obsession was stolen again - at the level of Sequence 4, the 'parasites' no longer need to take corresponding actions when 'stealing' the other party's ideas. They can keep the stolen things and present them at the right time.

That's why Yegor couldn't even ask for help. All his actions and thoughts would be stolen. No matter what trump cards he had, if he couldn't use them, everything would be in vain and he would be a lamb to be slaughtered.

During this time, a spear condensed in front of Cattleya, the Hermit.

This spear was of ancient style, and from the tip to the handle it was stained with patches and dots of dark blood-red.

It exuded a strong smell of destruction and a bloody feeling, as if it had once hurt some great being.

With a whoosh, the terrifying spear shot out and headed straight for Yegor Einhorn, who had already turned into charcoal.

In the entire room, all the sounds and details disappeared, even the pervasive "thunder" disappeared abruptly, leaving only the blood-stained gun tip and a ball of charcoal on the ground, as well as the shrinking distance between them.

The Spear of Longinus!

The blood-stained spear that seemed to have appeared in an ancient time that could not be traced back absorbed all the presence in the room and stabbed Yegor Einhorn in the body, giving him the final blow.

No matter what backup plan he had, it had lost all meaning at this moment.

Yegor was besieged by four demigods, and his extraordinary abilities were targeted and stolen. He was able to hold out for half a minute thanks to the fact that Alger and the others were not yet skilled in their coordination.

Alger stepped forward and picked up Yegor's magical items scattered on the ground, as well as the extraordinary characteristics extracted from his body. He looked around and said:

"Let's go."

Upon hearing this, Fors lifted the concealment of this space, and the boundless sea and the huge fleet on the sea immediately appeared before their eyes.

Just as she was about to use 'teleport' to leave, a large patch of morning light suddenly appeared before her eyes!

Piece after piece of morning light fragments burst out from a ship not far away. They were densely packed and countless, forming a flashing, violent and sharp hurricane that swept towards the 'Nepos'!

That is the Storm of Light of the Warrior Path!
This sudden attack caught everyone off guard, but they still made quick decisions at the first opportunity!
Alger immediately raised the Poseidon Scepter in his hand, and a dense array of entangled silver-white sharp edges swept out. A violent tornado suddenly appeared, rolling up the blue water and the silver-white sharp edges, making them look like a long snake, rushing straight into the sky and colliding with the seemingly countless morning light!
Boom!

The water splashed and fell like rain.

Fors did not hesitate, and prepared to use spatial concealment again, just like hunting down Yegor before, to hunt down the "warrior" who attacked them.

But at this moment, an anxious reminder suddenly sounded in her mind:

"Come on!"

Without hesitation, Fors changed his strategy and used teleportation directly, disappearing from the spot along with the other three people.

And soon after they left, dusk fell quietly!
