Chapter 453 The original pharaoh

In the 105 battles he led as a commander, Charles was invincible. The continuation of victories has brought strong self-confidence to the soldiers, but it has also accumulated blindness and arrogance.

For the ever-victorious army, the first defeat is the most dangerous.

Charles knew that day would come.

However, what he didn't expect was that he recorded history in the Resurrection Kingdom, successfully coordinated and negotiated transactions, but Dog City suffered an unprecedented fiasco.

When Charles returned to his hometown, the scene in front of him made him very strange.

The corpses of undead warriors were everywhere. The living warriors collected the only remains of the dead and piled them on the towers as the cornerstone for future birth.

The black jackals showed a rare embarrassment and nervousness. They kept sneezing and looked into the distance frequently, as if they were always paying attention to the enemy's movements.

As guardian of the Dog City, the Black Jackal is a ferocious demigod. Standing upright, their backs are level with the city walls, and when they howl, the undead crumble to pieces as wolves howl.

At this time, many jackals were seriously injured. They either limped and continued to patrol, or lay down in the corner to lick their wounds.

Charles walked up the steps from among the wounded and entered the empty and lonely palace.

The king of the tomb sat on the throne, his worm-backed face remained unchanged.

"Your Majesty, my subordinates return to you. The latest Yao clan has negotiated, and this phase of the transaction can be carried out at any time. In addition, the war on the kingdom seems to have ended with the mediation of God Yao..."

"Charles."

Cable interrupted his report and said softly: "Menis has been resurrected."

Wang's voice had an unconcealable exhaustion.

Charles' heart sank.

This is indeed something bad.

He immediately applied and participated in the frontline battle.

The demigod [Ketchikan], who was designated as rebellious in the past, has now become an ally in the united front.

"Charles? You're still here... I thought Kebley would keep you in the final defense. Is there such a lot of pressure? Why don't you just change the place and like the center of the city so much?"

"Or does he really regard himself as the master here? That's really funny."

Ketchikan **** its wings, as always, yin and yang.

He is a demigod with distinctive features, with a huge eagle head made of bones and disproportionate to the body, with broad and sharp feathers growing on his arms.

With the black and red hair between the bones, Ketchikan looks like a human vulture on a grave.

Surrounding Ketchikan, there are also strange people whose bodies have dissimilated into the form of birds. Their faces are vague, but they all have bone wings or bone feathers growing on their bodies.

These hundreds of weirdos are none other than Ketchikan's [Crow Army].

They are as dexterous and strong as crows, and they can also change into phantoms, making it difficult to distinguish which are real crow army and which are false phantoms, which is very difficult to deal with.

"Even if it's you, the situation won't change... I hope today's luck is not too bad."

Ketchikan's voice suddenly tensed: "Here we come."

The bone pinnae on his body tightened, as if he was facing an enemy.

Charles also focused on the front.

In the streets and houses in the distance, a majestic and vague shadow slowly appeared.

His thick and long legs stepped on the streets of Dog City, crushing the houses and buildings along the way.

The sun shone on his back, casting long and large shadows on the ground, like some kind of black tide, rushing towards this side step by step.

The enemy is covered in a light brown shroud, and only a human figure can be seen in its entirety.

His body is majestic and stiff, walking on the sun, wisps of dust seep out from the body, further obscuring the future face.

The head of this giant mummy wears a red and white double crown.

Different from the dirty shroud, the red and white colors on the high crown are bright and eye-catching, as if they have not been eroded by any dust and years.

Charles clenched his fists.

The original pharaoh, Menes.

He is one of the gods of [Falcon God] Horus. After the fall, Anubis retrieved the mutilated body of the god, embalmed it and buried it, and then came to the dog city to sleep forever.

Kabley had spoken.

"Menis is also among the top batch of title gods, but unfortunately, he was killed by a hippopotamus transformed into one of the Nine Pillar Gods [Lord of Strength]."

"Master Anubis was entrusted by Horus to bring back the soul of Menes from the underworld. But only after he went to the underworld did he know that the ghost of Menes did not reach there at all, but was captured by [Lord of Power]. After it was completely stripped off, it was fed to the strange things he kept."

"In the end, Lord Anubis could only bury the remaining body of Menes... After many years, Horus finally killed [Lord of Power] and completed his revenge. Lord Anubis also buried [Lord of Power] Some of the corpses were obtained, and they were also buried in the dog city to comfort the fallen Menes."

The huge **** whose face was covered slowly raised his hand, holding a flail staff.

Menes, who has only a body left, has long been reduced to a monster of desire.

He raised his flail staff and pointed forward, and said in a vague and hoarse voice: "Go, go! Under the sun, there is territory!"

There was a rumbling sound from behind.

Behind Menes are mummified soldiers. They lined up neatly, armed with spears and shields, marching towards this side like a colony of ants.

Charles saw it at a glance.

These soldiers are the embodiment of the power of Menes, each of them is an empty shell wrapped in a shroud.

But even an empty shell is a formidable warrior full of demigod power.

This is a small part of Menis's many abilities.

One man makes an army.

Ketchikan took the lead and flew to entangle Menes himself. The crow army also rushed to the mummy army behind.

Charles commanded the undead warriors to cut, detour, and outflank the mummy army, trying to prevent them from joining forces and trying to defeat them one by one.

However, the soldiers were still fighting fiercely, and Menis had already torn off one of Ketchikan's wings. He grabbed the skull of the demigod on the opposite side and lifted it away.

Ketchikan shattered into pieces, turning into a ball of light that exploded and numerous turbulent air currents.

Snake-shaped lightning bolts emerged from the light sphere, and they flew around.

"This guy is getting stronger and stronger, you should run away too, I will withdraw first..."

Ketchikan did not die, but abandoned this body and retreated strategically.

The battle in Dog City has always been like this.

It is rare to be single-handedly beaten to death.

As long as the two sides are serious, they will soon know how far apart they are.

Evenly matched, it is not easy to fight again, and both sides will exercise restraint. If the strength gap is large, the weak will quickly leave the battle to avoid irreversible trauma and preserve their existing strength.

So in the dog city, the army composed of undead warriors wins more and loses less. One of the reasons is that they are not afraid of death, and they treat death as home every time they fight.

Other demigods and monsters mostly choose to avoid the edge even if their intelligence is not high or they follow instinct.

Click to stop is the battlefield style here.

Comenes is not like this.

The body of the formerly powerful title **** was awakened from slumber, and turned into the most chaotic monster.

Monsters at this stage are the scariest, because they don't have any intelligence and act purely on beast-like instinct. Like a baby with the power of a god, unpredictable and incomprehensible.

Charles led the resistance and ordered a retreat shortly after, leaving behind the bodies of six undead warriors.

Luckily among misfortunes, Menes did not pursue him. He took non-existent soldiers and patrolled around his newly acquired territory.

For this defeat, Kebley has no blame.

"You also know the actual situation."

He said slowly: "Menes is hard to stop now. Ketchikan and the others keep entering the territory here, because they were hunted and hunted by Menes, so they had to retreat and migrate all the way, so they seem to be making trouble everywhere..."

Charles asked: "Your Majesty, why did Menis wake up suddenly? Isn't he sleeping in the seal under the tomb? That is the protection measure that Lord Anubis left behind on purpose, why suddenly..."

"I have investigated this matter secretly."

Kabley said in a low voice, "The seal has been artificially destroyed."

"Who is the enemy?" Charles looked serious.

"Do you remember... six hundred years ago, there was a magician who played a whistle?"

Charles appeared in front of a yellow-clothed magician.

The magician appears to be a human being, but is actually a humanoid golem. That guy was sneaky, and after being caught by the black jackal, he exploded into countless pieces.

"That magician is a family member of [Whistleblower], he is not a normal creature, and there are traces of him appearing in the sealed area."

Cabley said: "The title [Whistleblower] is a kind of power to control puppets with a whistle. The corpses of gods scattered all over the dog city are priceless treasures for that guy."

"He sent his family members to drill into the depths of the ground, unlock the seal on the outside of [Menes], and wake him up."

Charles became vigilant: "You mean, the magician is still alive, and even controlled Menis with a whistle in the dark?"

"No, that's impossible. To control Menis, unless the Whistleblower himself comes here and uses the power of his title, there is only a chance... The power of the family alone is far from enough."

"Now, we have two enemies to deal with."

"Menis is close at hand, and the whistler is hiding in the dark."

Kabley said slowly: "The top priority is to stabilize the situation and not let the situation worsen. I have a certain understanding of Menis. He is not a lunatic who advocates force. His instinct is actually... chasing victory and collecting spoils."

"If you give him what he doesn't have, Menes will stop attacking."

"This is a long-term job, and the gifts cannot be repeated... We need a lot of items. Charles, go to contact the Yao people, and ask the Yao God behind them if they are willing to start a new transaction."

Charles knew it in his heart.

Giving items free of charge is actually a tribute.

Lord Kable's flexibility made him admire for a while.

"Yes, Your Majesty."

"I will do my best to facilitate this new transaction with the Yao people!"

Charles holds his head up.

"Go...I'm waiting for your good news."
