Chapter 403: Sacrifice
It was dark, and the dark clouds overhead were like black ink, blocking out most of the sun.
"I thought you'd say hello to Big Blackfoot. Soros teased. "Don't you think it's faster to ride a donkey, though that fellow's mind is not on you. ”
"There are faster ways. ”
After Pique finished speaking, he held one hand towards the sky.
More than ten seconds passed, and a black shadow shot from the sky!
Finally, it landed firmly in the palm of his hand.
Noble cane!
"Oh, I forgot, you'll fly ......" Soros pouted, "Okay, you kid has a conscience and knows how to save me." ”
"I've been thinking about you. Peake said.
"Don't be numb, to be honest, aren't you worried about Hayser and that noble lady? ”
"I left the Gold Eater in the wagon......"
......
Slowly descending, Pique returned to the battlefield.
What made him a little confused was that as far as his eyes could see, he didn't see anyone!
Not even a corpse!
If it weren't for the large amount of blood on the ground, he would have thought he was in the wrong place.
What about mercenaries, horse thieves, and undead warriors?
Peake wanted to search the surroundings with his mental powers, but felt a sudden pinprick pain in his mind.
Oops, he just flew back in a hurry, which caused an excessive consumption of mental power, which directly caused him to have a feeling of dizziness.
Slowly calming down, Peake thought to himself. As soon as he left the battlefield, he saw that the mercenaries against the horse thieves had gained the upper hand. And Frank and they should have rescued the other two wagons as well, so where would they go at this time?
As if hearing Pique's heart, Soros said: "There is no time to look for them, you must find the necromancer within half an hour, otherwise, I will say goodbye to you forever." Oh, and the Gold Eater, I must tell you that the undead energy on the Gold Eater is of the same origin as me, and after I am drained, it will probably disappear into this world. ”
"How do you find the necromancer?"
"The light of faith, after people die, the light of faith on their bodies has not dissipated, it will shoot directly into the sky, and it will not disappear for a long time. Those necromancers must be following the necromancer, so all you have to do is find the pillar of light where the Light of Faith is. ”
"But my mental strength is running out. "If you want to see the light of faith, you must use spiritual power.
"There's another way. "You can find a lot of interesting things through the light of faith." ”
At this time, Pique suddenly thought of the wandering samurai!
Long ago, wandering samurai observed themselves through the light of faith.
Thinking like this, his mind moved slightly, and a light of faith appeared on the tips of his left fingers.
Sure enough, when I looked through the light of faith, everything around me changed: the grass was still green, but it was only green, without any shape, my other hand through the light of faith, it was also shapeless, it was a yellow of nothingness, and the dark clouds above the sky were black, presumably full of the power of the spirit of the dead.
So, if you look through the light of faith, you can only see colors?Could it be that the reason why the wandering warrior sensed the aura of the dead on his body was also because he saw a patch of black?"How do I find the light of faith?" Peake was silent as soon as he finished asking.
"You should have seen it. Soros said.
Yes, Pique saw it, and in the middle of a forest in front of him, dozens of white pillars of light rose into the sky!
Putting away the light of faith in his hand, he said with some hesitation: "I'm going alone?"
"What? are you still thinking about your group of mercenary friends? I advise you not to expect too much. After all, the other party is a powerful necromancer. This profession was very popular even a thousand years ago. Everyone was against them, but no one dared to speak out, because the necromancer was so powerful that it shut everyone up. ”
"And yet you asked me to confront him. Peake said as he walked towards the woods.
"There must be a way!" Soros said matter-of-factly, "You can definitely defeat the necromancer, I am optimistic about you." ”
"......," Peake muttered for a long time, and by this time he had walked around the woods. In front of it is a coniferous forest, with green trees several feet high reaching into the sky, and at this time, under the black clouds, it looks like a ghost forest. "I wonder why you have so much faith in me, I think you're lying to me. Before entering the woods, Pique felt like he needed to be pumped up.
"I didn't lie to you," Soros said very seriously, "Of course I know your strength, in the face of the necromancer, you may be hung up in one face, there must be a turnaround! I can convince you for a reason." ”
"What?" asked Peake.
"Have you forgotten what the old priest said?" Without waiting for Peake to answer, he said directly: "The old priest said that he saw you in the future world! What does this mean? It means that you can get out of here safely today!"
"Well, you convinced me. Pique didn't hesitate any longer, she heard Soros's voice getting weaker and weaker.
Worried about Soros, Pique's pace is getting faster and faster.
Finally, Peake stopped in the forest, saw what he saw, and immediately ducked sideways behind a thick tree trunk. Slowly, he poked his head out from behind the tree again.
I saw dozens of people standing fifty paces away, forming a circle, as if they were listening to something, all looking in the same direction.
They're not human, they're undead warriors!Peake saw one guy lose a leg, but he was still standing upright.
Besides, he saw the horse thief standing with the lightly armored guards......
Before, they fought together, but now they are standing side by side.
This picture can't be described as strange.
The undead warrior has no pain, no emotion. Peake shuddered at the thought of those godless eyes.
"This is a sacrifice!" said Soros, who has seen a lot of things, in surprise, "This could be the turning point!"
"Sacrifice?
"Yes, the necromancer's main job is to carry out some sacrificial activities, because he wants to extract the undead qi from the body of the necromancer! This can also explain why he sent people to attack you, the necromancer must collect the undead qi if he wants to improve his strength, and where does the undead qi come from?
Pique was silent, mentally digesting the message in Soros's words.
Soros went on to say:
"A thousand years ago, there was a well-known saying on the continent - if you want to defeat the necromancer, then attack him when he organizes a sacrifice!
So why do you ask? Quite simply, it's because when the necromancer organizes the sacrifice, he has to keep chanting incantations! This is when the necromancer is at his weakest! Because he can't be distracted at all! You can't make any movements! You can swagger over!
What are you still doing? Don't worry, those undead warriors won't attack you when the sacrifice is going on!"
Peake held the nobleman's cane tightly in his hand, and just like that, he walked out slowly.
Obviously, Pique still has a certain amount of trust in Soros. I saw him slowly walk around from the side, and then saw the scene in front of the undead warrior clearly: a guy in a black robe opened his hands and lowered his head, in front of the black-robed man was a huge black coffin, at this time the coffin lid had been opened, and one after another undead warriors stepped forward, and then walked into the coffin!
A few minutes passed, and Pique had already seen at least five undead warriors walk in!
How can it be?
Although the coffin was huge, how could it be possible to put down five people?! And this kind of sacrifice continued, and Pique was hesitating when he saw two more undead warriors walk in!
This phenomenon is completely incomprehensible!
"Take advantage of now!" Soros's voice was slightly excited, "Don't wait for his sacrifice to be completed! Kill him now!
Peake took two more steps forward.
At this time, he was only ten steps away from the necromancer! The other party seemed to be only concentrating on the sacrifice, and did not notice Pique, only to hear one after another obscure hoarse voices coming from the black robe.
Pique tensed, and without waiting for Soros's urging, he stepped forward and took two more steps.
Finally, the necromancer who was reciting the incantation spotted him! The black robe shook! The necromancer looked up suddenly!
The two men looked at each other at a distance of ten paces
A pair of pale pupils! no other color! only a pale!
Unconsciously, Peake raised the noble cane in his hand. After a moment's pause, he took two more steps forward.
The other party still didn't react! just stared at him with those pale pupils that didn't have any emotion or any color.
Seeing such pain, a cold meaning suddenly emerged from the bottom of my heart. He dodged the necromancer's pale gaze and thought to himself. It's really like Soros said! Necromancers can't do anything superfluous when performing sacrifices!
Peake felt his legs stiffen and stiffened, and as he struggled to control the slight tremor, he took a few more steps forward.
At this point, he was only three steps away from the necromancer!
"With the light of faith!" Soros prompted. "The light of faith can kill him!"
The mind moved slightly, and the blazing white light filled the entire noble cane!
However, at this time, Pique just stood there dumbfounded, without any next move.
The necromancer was still staring at him, the obscure incantations in the air.
"What are you waiting for? Knock him! Knock him on the head!" Soros shouted.
Pique still stood there, a little hesitant, a little confused. At this time, he was thinking in his heart, did he really want to kill someone?
