Chapter 1033: City of Shadows

"We're here."

The low words reached North's ears, and there was a vague sense of lack of strength in the words, but no one could underestimate the owner of the words.

The person who said this was one of the only two legendary lichs in the entire Diya, and at this time, she did not show the imposing momentum of the lich assembly, but rather looked like an extremely old creature.

Looking at the towering black castle in front of him, and feeling the howling wind around him, North felt a chill for no reason.

North knew that the castle in front of him was where the royal family of Dia was located, and that the other creatures called the City of Shadows.

After leaving the Dead Wasteland, North followed Aceri to her territory, and when she had finished sorting out the undead creatures she had transformed, he came with her.

"Necromancer, you're in a bad state, you have too many questions, and they're occupying your mind."

Over the course of their long lives, the experience the Lich has accumulated, combined with its keen senses, can easily read through the minds of most creatures.

Along the way, North saw everything about the lich, and his heart was still full of questions, but due to the gap in identity, he didn't dare to ask Ace about it, but he didn't expect to be seen by him.

North nodded: "I've always wanted to be a true necromancer, I want to know, what kind of state did the lich spend his long years, great Mother Earth, can you tell me the answer?" ”

"What other state can there be, it's just studying spells and accumulating undead creatures, and it's not much different from a necromancer."

Acery's answer was not the answer North wanted, so he added:

"I mean the state of mind that the lich doesn't get tired of the long accumulation of undead creatures? What kind of will has sustained you through these long years? As a lich freed from the limitations of a human body, he should have a will far beyond that of a necromancer. ”

North's inquiry stirred up some memories of Ace, but she only replied lightly:

"The Lich doesn't have that in mind when he lives his life. You don't need any will to live, just like a necromancer, have you ever seen a necromancer who is tired of his life? ”

After a pause, as if thinking of something, Aceray added:

"If there is any will that many lichs believe in, it is a prophecy that circulates among the lichs. Many lichs, including me, are convinced that the arrival of a necromancer with two artifacts will completely change the situation in Diya. ”

"The undead creatures that the Lich has accumulated over countless years, except for those that have long since decayed, will show their power in this battle, and you are fortunate enough to be a part of it."

Hearing Ace's words, Northton realized that she was referring to a necromancer with two artifacts, none other than Rhodes, to whom he had been loyal.

In North's view, Rhodes seems to have anticipated all this, including the fact that North himself was chosen as a puppet, also at Rhodes' behest.

Looking at the thoughtful North, Acery continued:

"You said you wanted to be a real necromancer. Now that you have been recognized by a lot of lichs, it won't be long before you become the most prominent existence among Diya, even if you are the current king of Diya, you will respect you a little, and no one is more worthy of being a necromancer than you. ”

"All you need to do is reveal your identity as the master of the artifact with my help."

Acery's words reached North's ears, but North didn't show the slightest hint of excitement, as if the other necromancers' desperate things couldn't get his attention at all.

After transforming a large number of Grey Witch Kings for Acere, in order to make North better complete the task, Rhodes specially transformed ten Corpse Witch Kings for him and handed them over to him to control, at this time, these ten Corpse Witch Kings also passed through the Gate of Time and Space, followed behind North, waiting for him to give orders.

The corpses used by the Transforming Corpse Witch King also came from Aisley's territory, and such a powerful lich naturally didn't care about this.

These ten Corpse Witch Kings are all the undead creatures controlled by North, and other than that, he does not control any undead creatures.

Rhodes didn't expect North to rely on these Necromancers to achieve any amazing results and transform the Necro Kings for him, just so that he could use the Necro Kings to transform ordinary Necros when other necromancers questioned North's abilities.

The City of Shadows is one of the few cities of the dead that places the location of the teleportation monument outside the town, and the vast majority of towns, whether they are the city of the dead or not, will not make such a choice.

The decision to place the teleportation tablet outside the town was made by the current king of Diya, supposedly to ensure the safety of the town, but anyone with a discerning eye could see that it was a sign of fear.

What can make King Diya feel feared will naturally not be ordinary necromancers and the like, only real lichs deserve this kind of treatment.

As the nominal agent of the lich, that is, the existence of King Dia, the vast majority of undead lords cannot ignore his orders, and no one knows whether the meaning of the order is the meaning of the king himself or the meaning of those lichs.

The powerful undead lord can ignore King Diya's orders, but he does not dare to ignore the existence of those lichs.

The arrival of North will inevitably change all this, and even the position of the king himself will be seriously threatened.

This is also what Rhodes was worried about before, if it was Phoenix, he might not be afraid of King Diya's threat at all, but with North, the situation may be different.

In order to ensure that North would not be easily disposed of, Rhodes collected tokens from other lichs, hoping that these things would be of some help.

Outside the Shadow City, even though Acer didn't release his momentum, the Corpse Witch King following behind North, and the pitch-black Time and Space Gate still attracted the attention of the creatures in the city.

This space-time portal, completely eroded by the energy of death, is a symbol of the lich in the territory of Dia, and only a true lich can transform his own spells into this form. The existence of this space-time gate is equivalent to the arrival of the lich.

Compared to the shock caused by the appearance of the lich, the corpse witch king following behind North was inconspicuous.

Just after North and his party appeared, no necromancer dared to take a second look at this side, but chose to avoid it, and there were no more creatures entering or leaving the city gate, and the prestige of the lich had already penetrated into the hearts of all necromancers here.
