Chapter 1088: Chapter 666: The Battlefield Reversed Again_2 Chapter 1088: Chapter 666: The Battlefield Reversed Again_2 Seeing Leo Ray’s confusion, Lina bowed and explained, “This is a common tactic used by necromancers.”

“So that’s how it is.”

Leo Ray nodded slightly, and inwardly sighed, “Necromancers are indeed an extremely tricky occupation. I remember that Gideon Black once mentioned that Lina, as a ‘Controller of Beasts’, is just as powerful as any of her peers in the ‘Controller of Humans’, and can even summon Bone Dragons. I hope Lina can reach that level sooner.”

Just as Leo Ray was thinking this.

The two wings of the Undead Legion composed of three thousand undead cavalry had completely crushed the six thousand light cavalry of the Great Prince’s forces, and then swarmed towards the assault cavalry and heavy cavalry positions.

Of course, the nightmare of the surviving soldiers on the Great Prince’s sides was not over, as a deadly rain of arrows fell upon them.

Their next opponent was the advancing Undead Legion infantry.

In the blink of an eye, the undead cavalry broke into the ranks of the assault and heavy cavalry again.

A large number of assault cavalry were, as expected, pierced and fell off their horses with screams.

As for the heavy cavalry, which was like canned food, the undead cavalry’s main target was the horses, who were then kicked and sent flying by the skeleton warhorses.

Due to their heavy armor, these fallen heavy cavalry were too clumsy and heavy, and they were unable to get up on their own in their panic, just like overturned turtles.

This gave the surviving light cavalry of the Second Prince the best chance for revenge.

Thus, a complete reversal occurred again on the battlefield.

“Is the Second Prince’s force gaining the upper hand again?”

Leo Ray’s eyes were sharp, focusing on the battle below.

Before the appearance of the Undead Legion, the great prince had deployed a total of 11,000 troops from their wings, vanguard, and some from the middle. The Second Prince had sent out 10,000 troops from their wings and the front.

After these incessant struggles and reversals, the remaining number of troops is less than a third of the original number.

Death energy permeated the battlefield; the most numerous skeleton soldiers fought together with the remnants of the two forces.

After the initial series of panic, some mentally strong soldiers of the Great Prince had resumed their fight.

However, facing the skeleton warriors who still bravely stabbed their spears even if they had a bone arm cut off, these exhausted soldiers of the Great Prince clearly had a hard time keeping up.

Many of the still galloping cavalry were dragged off their horses by several skeleton warriors and hacked down in mid-charge.

Under the thick black fog, skeletons wreaked havoc, the earth was stained with blood, and soldiers wailed.

Broken shields, deformed armor, bent longswords, torn lances, mingled with the bodies of soldiers scattered everywhere,

And stepping on these, the remaining soldiers, whether terrified, angry, or frightened, were roaring and fighting their last desperate battle.

“My Lord, in all my years of fighting, I have never seen such a heart-wrenching battlefield.”

Burt’s wrinkled, old face deepened in lines, as he slowly said, “The Undead Legion is truly terrifying.”

“The elder is right; this scene is like an apocalyptic disaster.”Joshua’s fair and valiant face was filled with seriousness as he echoed, “The ‘Controller of Humans’ undead legion is a taboo skill explicitly forbidden by the Temple of Luminance. It hasn’t appeared on the battlefield for over a century, and in history, every time it has surfaced, it has dragged the soldiers of that war into the abyss.”

“Joshua, since it is a taboo skill, wouldn’t the Temple of Luminance, which claims to purify all darkness and bring blessings to the various countries of the Human Clan, hunt down these users of taboo skills?”

After a slight consideration, Leo Ray asked with furrowed brows.

“My Lord, since the Era of Blankness, the Temple of Luminance has been one of the most ancient organizations among humans and the largest neutral organization. It is regarded as the guardian of the various countries of the Human Clan, having saved them from danger many times.”

Joshua placed his hand on his chest to salute and replied, “For example, during the Demon Dragon chaos over 500 years ago, most people only knew of the Nine Dragon-slaying Heroes combining the peak powers of various countries of the Human Clan to slay the rampaging Purple-winged Demon Dragon, but they did not know that there were two Demon Dragons invading the human countries. The strong ones within the Temple of Luminance had already killed one before they came close.”

“In history, there have been many periods when the Temple of Luminance actively hunted the users of taboo skills, but all that was with the highest decision-maker of the Temple of Luminance, the Pope himself, ordering the final execution.”

As Joshua’s long eyelashes flickered, he continued with his explanation.

“Once such orders were issued, the Temple of Luminance’s formidable force, not bound by the jurisdiction and management of their countries, often encountered varying degrees of friction with local royalty and nobles. As a result, the Temple’s relationship with various countries of the Human Clan became extremely tense.”

“Therefore, many Popes throughout history, in order to avoid unnecessary troubles, adopted non-interventionism and did not send out the Temple’s formidable forces casually. Instead, they handed over the users of taboo skills to be eradicated by the countries’ royal families. The current Pope is a staunch executor of non-interventionism.”

Pausing for a breath, Joshua summed up, “As for the mysterious Necromancer appearing in the Second Prince’s camp this time, the situation is even more complicated. Unless the Coldflame Royal Family approves, the Temple of Luminance naturally won’t interfere in such matters.”

“I see, and the current Coldflame Royal Family does not have a single decision-maker… In other words, it is seemingly impossible to borrow external forces to deal with the mysterious Necromancer.”

Leo Ray pursed his lips helplessly, his gaze fixed on the remaining soldiers of the Great Prince who had yet to make a move. He changed the subject, “At this stage, the Great Prince’s forces are at an absolute disadvantage. The White Knight should have started taking action, right? Or rather, he should have already been making moves…”

“My Lord, it seems that like what Second Prince’s forces just did, the White Knight is also brewing some kind of trump card.”

Scarlett took small steps to approach, her big eyes blinking innocently, and whispered in Leo Ray’s ear.

Looking at her carefree attitude, unaware of what fear was, Leo Ray reached over the witch’s hat to rub her head, nodding, “Finally, a smart move.”

Focusing his vision back on the battlefield under the stormy mountaintop, Leo Ray squinted his eyes, continuing to observe.

“I wonder what measures the White Knight will deploy to face this seemingly unstoppable crisis.”

Curiosity and anticipation combined, Leo Ray’s gaze swept across the vast battlefield.

For a moment, he felt that something was off, but couldn’t pinpoint it immediately.

“My Lord, there is something strange about the middle and rear army of the Great Prince that has not moved for a long time.”

Taylor’s eyebrows tightened as she watched the other side of the battlefield and replied, “If my guess is correct, they are no longer there.”

“I share the same opinion.”

Red Night furrowed her brow, nodded and said, “Although the battlefield filled with death energy and murderous intent makes it nearly impossible to sense anything, the calmness of the soldiers is too unusual.”

“So that’s it; that’s the inconsistency!”

Upon hearing this, Leo Ray suddenly had a revelation, “Facing the merciless and powerful undead legion of Second Prince’s forces, the soldiers from the Great Prince’s camp who have yet to make a move are indeed abnormally calm.”

As Leo Ray’s words fell, the soldiers of the Great Prince’s forces who had not moved for a while gradually began to fade away.

At the same time, earth-shattering battle cries erupted suddenly from the unguarded rear of Second Prince’s forces.
