Chapter 660: Breaking Through the Siege of Lost City
Bunduk entered the palace of the undead alone.
The warriors of Drondheim looked at each other in dismay when they saw this scene.
Not long after Bunduk entered the palace, the Swadian warriors also started to move.
After all, letting Bunduk enter alone was practically sending a sheep to the tiger’s mouth. Even though Bunduk’s combat strength was astonishing. But from the way he fought this time, it was unknown what kind of strange checkpoints the undead had arranged ahead.
Almost a few hundred soldiers followed Bunduk closely.
The lizardmen at the side noticed their movements and wanted to stop them. But they were stopped by the man who came out to negotiate.
“Let them go in. In any case, there’s only death ahead.” the man said lightly.
The moment they entered the palace of the undead, they felt the temperature of the air around them drop by several degrees.
Although the entire building was sealed with stones, there were wind blowing through the hall from time to time.
The visibility in the room was low, which was more than enough for the undead. However, for the warriors of Drondheim, it was a little difficult for them to move in such dim environment.
They leaned against the wall and carefully walked with the light in their hands. But the road seemed to be longer than anyone could imagine. It was not until the soldiers could not help but start to whisper to each other that they finally saw a room with an open door in front of them.
The military officer at the forefront looked inside. Although they did not know what it was, the view in the room was much clearer.
Commander Bunduk was one step ahead of them and was already standing on the wide-open space in the room.
The military officer took the lead and walked in, stopping beside Bunduk.
There was a burst of exclamations behind him, and the military officer looked back without knowing why. He found that everyone was looking up at the roof of the room. The military officer also looked up. After seeing the scene on the roof, he could not help but gasp.
What was reflected in his eyes wasn’t a pitch-black ceiling or gorgeous decorations. Instead, it was a sea of stars in front of him. Compared to what he usually saw with his naked eyes in the wild, it was more than ten or a hundred times clearer.
“Commander, what is this?” the subordinate officer couldn’t help but ask.
Bunduk didn’t answer. Instead, he stared at the altar in the middle of the room with a solemn expression.
After a while, the figure of a man walked out from behind the altar.
“Is the way of the surrender of Drondheim always been so special? I thought it was only commander Bunduk.”the man said.
The soldiers behind Bunduk suddenly quieted down, their eyes locked on the enemy who had suddenly appeared.
“As you can see, we will not surrender.” Bunduk said slowly.
The man seemed a little surprised, but his expression only stayed on his face for a moment.
“Then I won’t say any more nonsense. If you step into this palace today, you will die.” the man said viciously.
“Clang!!”
The mechanism hidden on the stone wall revealed its original form. The secret door was opened, and thousands of undead warriors walked out.
The warriors of Drondheim could clearly see that the undead warriors here were completely different from the undead warriors they had met on the battlefield.
Their skin was covered in a layer of fluorescent light. That layer of fluorescent light seemed to have become their strongest defense. It stuck close to their bodies.
The Swadian warriors immediately walked to the front from the back of the team. They either squatted or stood up straight. They picked up the shields in their hands and lined up in formation.
Bunduk’s brows were tightly knitted. From the moment he entered the room, he could sense that his physical strength was inexplicably draining away. After seeing the star formation on the roof, he felt that things were even worse.
However, it was already too late to back down now. Drondheim’s army could not accept the curses after surrendering, and Bunduk himself could not accept returning in defeat just like that.
Now that things had come to this predicament, he could only force his way out. They had to crush the undead one by one.
Bunduk watched as the man stepped onto the stone stairs and walked to the top of the altar.
This lit up a glimmer of hope in his heart.
“Warriors, don’t give up. Drondheim is waiting for us behind, let us rush out of here together!!” Bunduk raised his arms and shouted.
The warriors behind Bunduk responded in unison, holding their weapons tightly in their hands.
“Kill!” the man on the altar gave the order.
The undead warriors standing on the ground heard this and rushed to the front of the Swadian Sergeant’s formation.
They used the swords and axes in their hands to hack at the newly modified shield.
“Bang!!” If there were ordinary people with weaker physiques present, they would probably have their ears ringing from the collision of the swords and shields.
And under the pressure of this wave of impact, the Swadian Sergeant was tired.
The situation seemed to have become troublesome.
As the Swadian Sergeant made a defensive formation, he used the weapons in his hands to attack the weakness of the undead warriors while coordinating with the cavalries.
But this time, it did not seem to pose any threat to the undead warriors.
One of the Swadian warriors’ shield was smashed and torn apart. Immediately after, the undead warrior grabbed his neck, wanting to kill him.
However, he was stopped by Bunduk. Bunduk took a spear from the cavalry and stabbed it deeply into the undead warrior’s knee, causing him to fall to the ground.
After an undead warrior lost his attacking power for a short while, the Drondheim warriors immediately surrounded him and attacked him together.
The battle continued for a while. Bunduk wiped the sweat off his forehead.
His gaze calmly swept across every place where the soldiers were fighting. No matter what, the number of casualties of the soldiers of Drondheim was far greater than that of the undead. They were in a disadvantageous situation.
Bunduk locked his gaze on the man standing on the high platform again.
That man had been standing there since the beginning of the battle.
A wave of doubt rose in Bunduk’s heart. He realized that the highest point of the altar was also where the starlight gathered.
After thinking for a while in his mind, he had a clue about the way to break out of the predicament.
Bunduk once again threw himself into the battle and silently moved closer to the altar.
Behind him were a few officers and subordinates who were close to him, providing cover for him. When the few of them sneaked near the stone stairs leading to the altar. The people around them almost did not notice their approach.
Bunduk led the few soldiers to step onto the altar.
The man who was high up had already noticed their movement.
At this moment, he waved his right hand on the astrolabe in front of him.
Four undead knights covered in flames appeared in front of Bunduk and the others. They blocked their path.
Bunduk gripped the weapon in his hand tightly. He steeled his heart and shouted loudly, “Charge!!”
