Chapter 128 – [Heart Of Machinery XVIII]

With the help of the mechanical creatures, the progress of the elven Holy Land’s restoration was advancing at a speed visible to the naked eye. The destroyed temple had been rebuilt, and, now all that was left was to redistribute defense devices within the Holy Land.

The various races had experienced more than 200 years of alliance. The alliance had also enabled them to maintain good diplomacy after the war. In this peaceful environment, the elves were not so anxious about rebuilding their defenses.

“Is there something else worrying Ah Huai?” The humanoid weapon secretly being watched by some elves from time to time stood in front of an R-type robot and looked up at the young human being sitting on the arm of the robot.

Although everything went smoothly, Noah could feel that the youth in front of him seemed to still be worried about something and was not really relaxed.

Gu Huai looked left and right and confirmed that no one around could see him. He jumped down from the robot’s arm with clear aim.

The humanoid weapon in front of the robot made a slight downward movement. Noah held out his hand and safely caught the young man who jumped down to his side. He firmly continued to hold the young man’s waist.

He had a warm body temperature. Noah was not interested in other life forms, but when he was with the youth, he really liked and paid attention to his body temperature.

“Yes, there is, but it cannot be solved for the time being.” Gu Huai put his head on the shoulder of the humanoid weapon that was clinging to him, half narrowed his eyes as he spoke in a somewhat lazy tone.

It was indeed impossible to solve the problem. The enemy was dark and he was in the light. Now he could only wait for the other to show up. The clearance value was still slowly rising, so Gu Huai knew that the other would soon respond.

This was a world in which the enemy was well prepared. Gu Huai could not guess what the other would do after being forced to hurry. Both of them wanted to win. It was not a mistake to want to win, it was only human nature, but Gu Huai could not accept the means used by the other, which involved his family.

“If we meet in this world, we won’t be as polite as last time.” Gu Huai said this sentence to his system in his mind, calmly saying: “I’m going to give him a fat beating.”

Why couldn’t it be solved for the time being? Noah didn’t ask aloud, but tightened his hand around the waist of the youth at this moment, silently showing his desire to protect and possess.

The same was true for the settlement with the races. No matter what kind of things, Noah did not think it was possible to stop him.

The days of peace had gone on for almost a month. As Gu Huai believed, the enemy hiding in the dark had indeed been pushed to the limit of patience. In recent days, some unusual changes had taken place in the mainland of Eizea.

Eizea was a world where magic and science and technology were combined and developed. There were many magnificent sceneries on the mainland, such as the boundless vast wilderness, the secluded green forest, or the spotless vast snow plains.

All kinds of races on this continent had always believed that they lived in a world full of vitality until they perceived an inexplicable shadow of death in recent days.

In the eastern part of the mainland, the originally green nightwish forest withered in a few days. The towering old trees withered and all the flowers and plants in the forest withered. The wild animals in the forest all seemed to have contacted strange diseases. Their bodies were rotting in many places, and even bones could be seen in serious cases. Their dispositions had become extremely violent and aggressive.

Abnormal changes in forests were only the beginning, though such changes had not shown any serious impact for the time being. Therefore, at the beginning, although all races paid attention to this matter, they were not too vigilant.

All races had sent scouts to investigate the forest situation and sent relevant personnel to study the forest ecological situation. Perhaps it was a new type of epidemic. When the situation had just appeared, various races were still inclined to this speculation.

However, after waiting for several days, none of the dispatched personnel returned and the reports were completely cut off. Only then did the various races realize that something was wrong.

However, it was the remains in the coffins that had really alarmed the races. Even the ancestral graves of the races had not escaped.

Because time had passed, these corpses had become bones. The dead, who should have rested in peace, were now forced to wake up and become puppets of the ruler, their spirits and wills both imprisoned.

That was a grave desecration of the dead. Even if this matter had nothing to do with the ancestors of their own race, the people of all races in Eizea could not understand this kind of behavior, which was close to madness.

The desecration of the dead bodies of their ancestors easily angered the races. However, when they fought back with indignation, the soldiers found a very bad fact. The army of undead they faced was very difficult to deal with.

They could not be killed because the enemies did not have life, which was somewhat similar to mechanical life. Unless the enemy’s body was crushed, the other could easily recover and reorganize.

And the number was too large. The dead who were forced to “resurrect” by unknown means poured into the battlefield one after another, continuously making the soldiers unable to see the hope of clearing them.

The most frightening thing for the soldiers was that if they died in the battle with the undead army, they would soon be forced to become a member of the undead army and fight their former companions.

“We will also give our full support. According to the current situation, it is not difficult to resist.” Gu Huai’s side had been on the same front with the races from the very beginning and had put aside any contrary issues. They were now holding strategic discussions.

Fortunately, with the addition of the mechanical army, the allied forces were not weak in the war with the undead army, and the number of casualties had been kept as low as possible.

Compared with the undead army, the mechanical army was undoubtedly much more violent, since the latter had any number of tactics, which was better than quantity, and they were sentient.

“Don’t worry. With the commander in place, no matter how many dead beings pour in, it is impossible to break through the gate.” The number of undead troops outside the city gate was indeed astonishing, but they all knew about their commander’s ability.

Even so, they also wouldn’t let these undead have the opportunity to be close to the youth.

He didn’t want his family to be worried. Gu Huai nodded his head and flattened his frown.

He was not worried or afraid. If Gu Huai had to say, he was angry now.

Gu Huai knew that this was the enemy’s retaliation, and the nature of this kind of behavior could no longer be described as merely bad, but had a deeper level of malice.

“The Elves Holy Land needs to be guarded more closely. Depending on the situation, an army can be stationed outside the territory.” The dwarves had good diplomatic relations with elves, and the king of the dwarves began to speak for the elves.

The Tree of Life of the Elves could not move. This was an obvious weakness. The leaders of other races were all aware of the reason and had no objection in this matter.

Soldiers were expensive, and it was necessary to implement this plan as soon as possible, so an elite army would soon set off with good equipment.

At this time, the leaders did not know that the creator and the ruler of this army of undead actually lurked in their parliament.

And the other had already made plans and was now ready to make moves towards its real target.
