Chapter 1157: Border
A week later, Juliudi.
The yin wind whistled, rolling up the dry fallen leaves on the ground, and as far as the eye could see, there was only a bare trunk left above the originally huge willow trees around them.
In the air, the smell of corruption has not dissipated for a long time, and the remnants of the traces of death energy show what kind of battle has taken place here, and the traces that belong to the necromancer deeply affect this area.
The former giant willow land is famous for its huge willow trees in the territory of Eli, and every time the early spring comes, the tender green branches hanging down from the giant willow can easily make people lose their way under the shroud of layers, and if there is no wayfinding guidance, I am afraid that they will not be able to find their way out for a long time.
As the intersection of the borders, the unique geographical location of the Giant Willow Land, as well as the vitality in it, also attracted many elves in Eli to come, and even settled nearby, which is also the original origin of the elves in Vilning.
It's just that now, the situation has obviously changed, with the necromancer's power in Verning expanding, the Eri creatures in Vilning were attacked first, except for a few who could evacuate in time, those who could not leave turned into undead creatures and became a member of the necromancer's subordinates.
Even the giant willow land itself has been infringed by necromancy, the willow leaves have fallen, the withered branches hang sparsely in the treetops, the majestic vitality of the past has long faded, and there is only a dead silence left here.
The evacuated elves could not take everything they had with them, and above the huge canopy, a small treehouse could be faintly seen, and under the erosion of death energy, the surface of the treehouse was already covered with a layer of darkness, and it seemed that it would not be long before it collapsed.
The elves who once had their homes destroyed and did not want to leave were only fearless sacrifices, unable to even turn into dust and decay in the depths of the earth, and the final outcome was only to be transformed into undead creatures and become necromancers' tools for evil, until their souls were completely silent.
A scatter of footsteps came from afar, breaking the silence in the Great Willow Land, and a group of pale skeletons appeared.
In order to facilitate management, but also to travel faster, these skeleton creatures are arranged into an irregular phalanx, and those who know something about the energy of death can detect through the remaining traces around them that the group of skeleton creatures in front of them is not a weak existence such as skeleton soldiers, but a real corpse witch, which can release a cloud of death that erodes the body.
In front of the phalanx composed of corpse witches, a human dressed in black robe couldn't help but stop when passing by one of the huge willow trees, looking at the long-abandoned tree house above, and wondering what he was thinking.
"Hurry up, Lyle, we don't need to do this anymore."
A burst of words came from the front, interrupting the necromancer's thoughts. Realizing the meaning of his words, the necromancer known as Lyle came to his senses, shook his head, and then stopped focusing on the treehouse above him, but at the other necromancer who was traveling with him.
Walking quickly forward and coming to the necromancer who had spoken earlier, Lyle asked, "Vera, do we really have to follow that guy's orders?" ”
"Or else? Even Ori died at his hands, and you have seen the end of the necromancer who resisted during this time. In addition, he also has the channel of communication with the immortal lich, which is the method that Orry has always dreamed of, but unfortunately, the current Orry no longer has this opportunity. ”
As he spoke, the necromancer named Vera let out a sneer.
Hearing the name mentioned in Vera's mouth, a special emotion rose in Lyle's heart, but he clearly remembered that the necromancer named Ori had what kind of power he had in the entire Verning before, but he didn't expect it to be easily cleaned up by the Great Lord, and it fell, and all the undead creatures of Ori were received by the Great Lord.
Thinking of the undead creatures that once belonged to Ori, Lyle's eyes were hot, and he didn't know when he would be qualified to control such a number of undead creatures.
There was a sigh in his ears, and Lyle looked at Vera, who was sighing, only to hear Vera continue:
"What's more, the time we have been a necromancer is too short, and the casting of related spells is not as good as those real necromancers in any way, and the only thing we can rely on is the transformed corpse witch."
Recalling the previous situation, Lyle was silent for a while, a month ago, he was just an exiled thief in the city of the dead, due to his low rank, even the necromancer was unwilling to spend energy to transform it into a skeleton soldier, if it wasn't for that incident, at this time, he was still living at the bottom of his life.
Lyle didn't know what was worth valuing about him, but he was guided by a strange necromancer, and not only learned the vital spiritual imprint of a necromancer, but also obtained a special undead creature.
It wasn't until later that Lyle knew that the undead creatures he got were already the top existence among all the undead creatures, that is, the sixth-order Corpse Witch King.
According to the necromancer's teachings, the existence of the Corpse Witch King can bring countless corpse witches to Lyle, and after gaining power, Lyle did not hesitate to transform all the creatures in his town into corpse witches, leaving only his fellow brother Vera.
Lyle wasn't worried that Vera would betray him, and he had the impression that when there was a time when there was nothing, Vera would rather go hungry and save the last bite of food to himself, which obviously says it all.
With the combined efforts of many corpse witches and the transformation of all the creatures in the city, Lyle became one of the undead lords of Verning.
Lyle originally thought that the Necromancer handed over to him the Corpse Witch King, its ability is a unique existence, but he didn't expect that in the entire Velning, the Corpse Witch King with this ability has long been overflowing, and it is not a rare existence, and Lyle with this ability is nothing at all.
As for the necromancer who was once handed over to the Corpse Witch King, about his true identity, Lyle thought about it for a long time, but could not come up with an accurate answer.
In Lyle's opinion, the most likely identity of that necromancer is the Great Lord of the entire Vernings, the necromancer known as Rhodes, who is said to have contact with the lich in his hands, and has a large number of corpse witch kings with this special ability, and any necromancer who goes to Ao City can be assigned at least one corpse witch king.
