Chapter 152: Smiling Skeleton Army

Hannovi – Destined to be an extraordinary city.

On the morning of July 28, 4597, King Imadnaguer I, who had just returned from Hukou Pass, issued an order, and all the residents of the city went outside the east gate to welcome the great Thunderstorm Emperor and his imperial concubine Hoover.

Since the day Imad announced the establishment of the Kingdom of Hanover, the residents of Hanover have been speculating who the mysterious Thunderstorm Emperor was.

There is a legend that the Thunderstorm Emperor was the illegitimate son of the king of the Rohan Kingdom, and there is also legend that the Thunderstorm Emperor was the owner of a mysterious island on an isolated island overseas. Some people say that the Thunderstorm Emperor does not exist at all, but is just a character specially made up by Imadnagur to shock the south of Balotte.

When the detailed news of the Hukou Pass victory reached Hanover City, people suddenly realized that the Thunderstorm Emperor was not a human, but a powerful skeleton lord.

Such a conclusion made the residents very panic. Hanover and the abandoned land united, so one day will the Hanover area be occupied by undead creatures, and will these humans become food for undead creatures?

Especially this Thunderstorm Emperor was identified as the evil devil by the Cult of Light. The army led by him broke the invincible myth of the Cult of Light, and people's worries became even worse.

Therefore, a large number of residents fled again. If Imadder I had not rushed back to Hanover City in time and used iron-fisted means to stop the large-scale migration, Hanover would have probably become an empty city again.

However, even so, the population of the entire Hanover area has withered. At its peak, the population of this area exceeded four million, but now it is less than one million. The only people living in the city are left with only 70,000 to 80,000 people.

Large tracts of farmland, pastures and houses were abandoned, and the orcs from the Beca Valley were filled.

Three hundred thousand orcs flocked into Hanover. They not only occupied the land that was enthroned for them, but also entered all unmanned villages. In Hanover, more than half of the houses were assigned to the orcs.

The massive retreat of humans caused the Hanover area to be almost on the verge of collapse. The new orcs did not know how to do business at all, and they could only barter.

Fortunately, it is approaching the autumn harvest season. Although most humans have left, the crops in the fields are about to mature, and there is no shortage of food in the Hanover area.

In such a situation, it is necessary for thunderstorms to disclose their identity, and it is also necessary to appear in front of humans in a friendly manner, dispel their inherent views on undead creatures, and prevent more people from escaping from going out of the country.

The sunshine in July and August was so fierce. The residents of the city stood outside the east gate and looked towards the Hannovi Iron Mine. They were very scared, but they also had some expectations.

King Imadnagur led all civil and military officials to stand in a newly opened square, beside him was a band of more than 400 people.

There are no real bands or musicians in the Hanover area, so these more than 400 people are temporary soldiers. Each of them distributes a big drum. As long as they beat it neatly, they will pass.

"Woo..." A melodious sound of ox horns came, and the lookout whistle standing on a small hill a kilometer away sent a message, and the Thunderstorm Emperor and his entourage were about to appear.

There was a riot in the crowd, some people wanted to run away, some wanted to squeeze in, adults shouted and children cried in a whole lot.

Amid the roar of horse hooves, a hundred black warriors appeared on the hillside on skeleton horses.

These black warriors were specially dressed up. In addition to the black helmet and black armor, each of them was assigned a red cloak and a flagpole. The cloth on the flagpole was colorful, but the patterns were the same - a hideous skull.

This is Cynthia's suggestion, she believes that dressing up black warriors in other bright colors can dilute the dark colors of black warriors and make it easier for ordinary people to accept.

After the appearance of the Black Warrior, it was a huge convertible carriage led by twelve skeleton horses, and Ray and Hoover sat upright on the carriage.

Lei's decoration today is very unusual. Without the black warrior armor and the acceleration equipment, he replaced it with a very wide robe, which looked very loose and looked like a bard.

Lei wore a gray hat on his head and a sword hung around his waist.

But this sword is no longer a sigh of soul, and that sword has been taken away by Gonzalez.

The most eye-catching thing is Hoover, her outfit is made completely like a human princess.

A pure gold crown on the top of the head is inlaid with more than 300 kinds of gems. The largest gem was taken out of the ancient tomb of Hoover, and it was a diamond the size of an egg.

Hoover's clothes were also very gorgeous. This dress was originally worn by Imadnagour's wife on an important occasion. It was temporarily modified and thousands of pearls were added.

Under the sunlight, Hoover shines with colorful light like a mountain of gems.

Behind the carriage was a squadron of a thousand golden skeletons. These golden skeletons did not carry weapons, but each golden skeleton carried a large pocket, which was bulging inside, and jingled when walking, as if filled with some kind of metal substance.

"Play music and welcome the Thunderstorm Emperor!" With the assistance of amplified magic, Imad's voice resounded throughout the suburbs.

"Dong...Dong...Dong..." More than four hundred big drums on the surface were thundering at the same time, making a boring and monotonous sound, shaking the earth.

Amid the drum music, more than a thousand undead creatures walked towards the north gate of Hanover City in neat steps.

"Oh my God, so many skeletons are so scary."

"Look at their horses, how can they run without meat?"

"Mom, I'm afraid, will they eat us?"

An uncontrollable atmosphere of fear spread outside the city gate. At this moment, these humans were like lambs to be slaughtered, and even the thought of resisting could not arise.

"Supreme God, save us!" A middle-aged woman couldn't help but kneel down on the ground and began to pray in habitually.

"Are you crazy, old woman!" Her husband hurriedly covered her mouth: "Praise the goddess of nature, the goddess is with us!"

A sentence reminded the people around him that the entire suburbs of the city began to become noisy, and people stood silently and prayed in a loud voice: "Praise the goddess of nature, and the goddess is with us."

Faith is the easiest to change in the face of danger.

Cynthia stood beside Imad, listening to the voices in the crowd, and a hint of unaware smile appeared on her face.

Regardless of whether these people are sincere or not, a good step has been taken after all!

Because only Lei and Hoover came in a carriage in the entire team, it is easy for people to guess that the two of them are the legendary Thunderstorm Emperor and Princess Hoover.

When people saw these two people clearly, they began to think secretly in their hearts, are these two people really evil and great devil couples?

It doesn't look very similar. Their appearance doesn't look like an undead creature at all! The Emperor of Thunderstorm smiled all over his face, and he doesn't look like a demon who kills without blinking at all? Especially Princess Hoover, she is definitely a human beauty. Her every move is full of gentleness and kindness. How could she be a demon?

As the team got closer, people's suspicion became heavier and heavier. Slowly, the prayers disappeared, and people looked at the strange team with curious eyes.

Especially when a thousand golden skeletons came over, people actually felt an indescribable strange feeling in their hearts.

These golden skeletons did not open their mouths or gritted their teeth, but opened their mouths slightly, and they did not look scary.

Anyone with common sense knows that the angle of the jawbone is opened can only appear when humans smile.

These skeletons are smiling at humans, which is incredible!

This action was also designed by Cynthia. Cynthia believes that whether the skeleton opens its mouth wide or closes its mouth, it will give people a terrible feeling, as if the skeleton wants to eat people.

Let the mouth open slightly at a very small angle. Although humans cannot see the smile of the skeleton, the appearance of the skeleton will lose some hideousness.

Cynthia did not expect that doing so would have an unexpected effect, and people really began to accept these skeletons that could smile.

When a thousand golden skeletons started from the city gate, arranged in a row, standing near the cordon, untied their pockets and opened them, the entire suburbs immediately boiled.

"Gold is gold!" The person standing in front was stunned in surprise.

In those thousand pockets, there was a strange gold coin. The style of the gold coin was different from that of the common gold coins on the Guangming Continent, but it was larger in size and purer in terms of color.

Lei has deeply understood how much money has an effect on human beings. Therefore, before he came again, he deliberately let a thousand golden skeletons empty an ancient tomb full of gold coins. More than one million gold coins from the ancient times were transported to the human world as the start-up capital for Lei to win people's hearts.

Under the command of the soul level, a thousand golden skeletons were neatly moved, and at the same time, they bent down to hold a handful of gold coins and went over to the crowd watching.

It was messy and the scene was completely messy. Under the influence of gold coins, people no longer felt that skeletons were terrifying. They snatched gold coins wildly, trampling on each other and scolding each other one after another.

A brave human ventured to cross the cordon, grabbed a handful of gold coins from the pocket of the golden skeleton and ran away. The golden skeleton was not angry at all, and still threw gold coins into the air in accordance with its inherent actions.

"Long live the Thunderstorm Emperor, long live the Thunderstorm Emperor!" Amid the shouts of mountains and tsunamis, a thousand golden skeletons were surrounded by tens of thousands of humans eager to make a fortune.
