Chapter 27 Hey
In the shadow of the corner of a house in an abandoned village, several zombies were lying there quietly.

Not far in front of them, the former fields were now covered with weeds, and beneath those weeds, a dozen skeleton soldiers lay quietly on the ground, motionless.

Such undead creatures are hidden in half-collapsed houses, in the shadows of abandoned canals, and in the corners of barns.

They were motionless, like real corpses. Disguised by the surrounding environment, even if a team of adventurers passed through the village, it would be difficult to discover these undead creatures lurking within.

A breeze blew by, and a fly on the zombie's face seemed to sense something, and flapped its wings, trying to fly away.

But it was still a step too late.

First a wave of heat distorted the air, and then flames fell from the sky.
In a flash, the abandoned village was engulfed in flames.

Those undead creatures moved before finally returning to the embrace of death. Even though they were undead, they still instinctively wanted to struggle to stay in this world, but soon, they became quiet again.

Just like what it looked like before the skyfire fell.

Fari in the sky nodded with satisfaction. The breath he just exhaled was perfect, just enough to cover all the undead creatures in the village without any waste.

"Sir, the troops in Sage City seem to be mobilizing."

The silver-haired girl raised her head and looked towards the northwest of Sagat City.

"Sir, shall we act now?"

The door of the checkpoint was closed, and a large number of refugees were blocked by it. There were still traces of undried blood on both sides of the road. It seemed that some refugees wanted to bypass the checkpoint through the forest beside the road, but they obviously did not succeed.

"Has it started yet?"

The silver-haired elf shook his head.

"Kill one more before they react, and then keep them hanging."

It’s just that the border checkpoints are not worthy of being their mission targets at all.

“I’m so strong.”

With an inaudible rustling sound, a mercenary in a cloak appeared beside the silver-haired girl.

Safrina looked around, three clergymen of the Sun God Cult, two priests, a paladin, and a whole five-man Raven Guard team. These people were all level five, and even if Safrina didn't take action, these people could eliminate the soldiers at the border checkpoint within three minutes.

"Wait a little longer. It will take time for the chaos to spread."

The crossbows in the hands of the soldiers on the checkpoint tower were already cocked and ready to fire. It seemed that this was the reason why the refugees failed.

The team included clergymen wearing robes of the Sun God, and mercenaries wearing green cloaks who said nothing and seemed to have blended into the surroundings. The one giving them orders was a silver-haired elf girl.

Those necromancers should be reacting soon, as this is already the third hiding place of undead creatures that he has destroyed.

Thinking happily like this, Fari flapped his wings and slowly flew to another place where the undead creatures were hiding.

The team stayed quietly in the forest, and on the road not far in front of them was a border checkpoint of Sagat City.

In the forest on the southeast border of Sagat City, a team with a very strange composition is hiding in the forest.

Fary quickly flew to the next hiding place of the undead creatures. He looked around carefully and made sure there were no other ambushes around. Then he opened his mouth and flames fell from the sky again.

Perhaps from the ground, these undead creatures are well hidden, but in the eyes of Farui who is in the sky, there is not much difference between these hiding measures and none at all.

The subsequent troops will need at least one day to assemble. Even if the Cult of the Sun uses Shadow Crows for camouflage, the large-scale assembly of mercenaries cannot be hidden from anyone. Almost at the moment the Shadow Crows have assembled, the city of Sagat will receive the news.

Their troops will soon gather and block the border. And the time it takes for their locally assembled troops to reach the border will definitely be faster than the Shadow Crows gathering in the capital.

No matter what, Sagat City is also the kingdom's territory. As long as Shadow Crow does not want to become a rebel, he cannot use force against the regular troops of Sagat. Safrina and the others' mission is to make Sagat City lose the ability to stop the troops from blocking.

They had to penetrate as deep into the territory of Sagat City as possible before the main force arrived, destroy all outposts and regular army command posts along the way, gather refugees, and obtain sufficient evidence of the rampage of undead creatures.

This mission was not easy for a small team like theirs. As long as any sentry post along the way sent out a distress signal, their mission would be declared a failure.

They only have one chance and need to strike at the perfect moment.

"That dragon appeared again?"

In the mansion in the city of Sagat, the knight has received reports that the hideouts of undead creatures have been destroyed one after another by a dragon.

"Klepp, Fassal, Lindo, and Bibilei have already arrived there, but the dragon..."

Jazz, who was sitting in the chair, looked up.

These guys are all level eight to nine warriors, and according to the report, the other party is just a young dragon. Even if they can't slay the dragon, holding it back shouldn't be a big problem.

"That dragon, he's so mean."

A battle is going on in the northwest of Sagat City.

No, maybe it wasn't really a fight.

Four strong men were moving cautiously in the swamp.

"Where the hell did that dragon go?"

The warrior holding the halberd complained while carefully looking around.

The swamp was very quiet, with only the faint chirping of insects.

"God knows when we'll find it. I think we should spread out and expand the search area."

The wanderer in the group made a suggestion.

This suggestion was immediately opposed by the sorcerer in the team.

“Have you forgotten how Fasal got the injury?
The ranger in the team had a wound on his shoulder that was so deep that the bone could be seen. Although it had been simply treated and the bleeding had stopped, it was obvious that his combat effectiveness was greatly affected.

They had tried decentralized search before, but the results were not ideal.

"That dragon was too despicable. After the sneak attack, it didn't even look at the results and just ran away."

If it ran any slower, it would be held back by these masters.

Just as a few people were complaining, several spikes burst out from under their feet.

Thanks to their concentration, they were not injured in the attack.

"Hey, come chase me."

But the dragon's voice obviously caused more trauma to their hearts than physical damage.

"We can't locate the dragon."

In the mansion in Sagat City, the knight thought for a moment and stood in front of the map in the study.

"It looks like we need to deploy more troops there..."
