Chapter VI: Taboos for Violating Regulations
"No, it's not them." Edward glanced at the army of corpse rats in front of him again, looking at the corpse rats who were swarming together to form a larger monster, Edward raised his hand and was blasted with holy light, scattering them again.
Standing beside Edward, Lim, who heard Edward muttering, looked at Edward with some curiosity and asked, "What are they not?" ”
"It's not these things that are asking me for help." Edward said calmly, and with a wave of his hand, another blast of holy light shot out, and the corpse rat caused by the holy light was directly purified into a little white light and disappeared into the air.
"Help?"
Edward didn't continue to answer Lim's question, he just squinted his eyes and walked towards the depths of the tunnel, "Captain Barron, please follow me. In my name, Holy Shield! ”
A golden curtain of light that exuded a holy aura appeared in front of Edward, the thin curtain of light was even slightly thicker than an eggshell, but it was under the light of such a light curtain that those crazy corpse rats unconsciously retreated.
Edward could sense that the being who called him was in the depths of this tunnel.
Stepping on the black magic position, the witchcraft arrays that exuded a strong and dangerous aura directly turned into wisps of black smoke and dissipated into the air at the moment when Edward's footsteps fell, and under the light of the holy light emitted by the holy shield technique.
"Boom ——!"
Just as Edward strode forward with Barron and the others, the ground shook.
The tremors became more and more intense, and even the lime on the roof of the tunnel was shaken down, and it was like gray snow.
Edward looked at the depths of the tunnel with a serious expression, he raised his right hand and snapped his fingers, and the next moment seven pure white balls of light appeared beside him.
【Holy Light Impact. Charged burst].
The next moment, a black shadow the size of two adult yaks slammed out of the dark tunnel.
"Roaring ——!"
“…… What is this?! Barron and the others stared at the new monster that had just entered their field of vision, their scalps tingling.
The newly emerging monster has eight legs, four pairs in total, each slightly different.
The pair of forelimbs in the front of the monster were slightly shorter than the three pairs of claws in the back, although they were shorter, but the claws on the forelimbs had six extremely long nails, and the long nails inadvertently scratched the ground and revealed the traces, which made the expressions of Barron and the others instantly become extremely solemn.
Stroke by groove, sharper than a sword made by a dwarven craftsman!
The monster had a head similar to that of a saber-toothed tiger, the only thing that differed from the saber-toothed tiger was that it had a long, grayish-black spiral horn on the door of its head.
"The horn of a nightmare, the head of a saber-toothed tiger, the claws of a dread-clawed finch, the body of a troll lizard...... A creature unique to the Necromancer, the Stitching Monster. ”
Looking at the monster in front of him that was put together by many "monster parts", Edward's face turned slightly blue, and he was angry.
How many innocent lives were sacrificed to create such a monster?!
"One of the taboos in the New Necromancy Regulations is the Stitching Monster, and it seems that there has been a fallen necromancer here before." Barron looked at the monster in front of him with an equally ugly expression, looking at the monster's flickering claws, he clenched the long sword in his hand suddenly.
Edward confronted the Stitching Monster, and at this moment, Edward's gaze froze, and a pure white ball of light suspended by Edward's side turned into a holy light blast, slamming straight into the Stitching Monster.
In the face of Edward's blow, the stitching monster, which had already been on guard, directly raised its front paws and swept forward, and immediately dozens of corpse rats blocking it along with the gravel blocked the front of the stitching monster.
Edward's eyes narrowed slightly, and he was shielded by corpse rats and rubble, and finally attacked the Stitcher's Holy Light Impact, which was only used to scorch a piece of black-gray skin that Stitch was illuminated on.
The stitched monster shook its body, and it raised a claw to tear off the newly charred area of its body, revealing the white bones inside.
The Holy Light Impact failed, Edward did not show a disappointed expression, he just raised his right hand, and the six Orbs of Holy Light suspended beside Edward immediately responded to Edward's call.
The six balls of light fused together, and the surging holy power in Edward's body continued to pour into the ball of light on his right hand.
Then, under Edward's delicate control, the white ball of light continued to compress.
Quantitative change leads to qualitative change.
The white ball of light suspended in Edward's right hand suddenly burned at a certain moment, and the originally dignified aura quietly dissipated with the appearance of this pure white flame.
Edward's eyes calmly swept the [Holy Flame, Pseudo] in his hand, and the corners of his mouth rose slightly.
With a flick of Edward's right hand, the pure white flames that swayed in the breeze of the tunnel floated out of Edward's palm, slowly drifting in the direction of the stitching monster at an extremely slow speed.
In the face of Edward's attack, the stitching trick was repeated, and with another flick of the claw, nearly a hundred corpse rats were swept towards the pure white flames that floated leisurely.
"It's over."
In Barron's astonishment, Edward sneered twice, and the next moment a pure white sea of fire descended.
Like a flame meets gasoline, the moment the pure white flame touches the corpse rat, the moment it explodes, the white flames swept through the tunnel, and in an instant, all the undead, including the Stitching Monster, were covered in a layer of flames.
"It's a pity that it is a false flame that was forcibly raised, otherwise this flame could burn here for seven days and seven nights and burn all the 'evil' here." Edward shook his head with some pity, and the pure white fire in front of him gradually dissipated as he spoke.
The fire comes and goes fast.
Barron looked at the scene in front of them in bewilderment, and his eyes were full of shock when he looked at Edward.
This may be the big guy, amazing!
“…… Can the other Fourth-Order Priests do it?! The corners of Barron's mouth twitched, it was obvious that Edward's strength was very different from his impression of a fourth-order priest.
Seeing the short-lived pure white sea of fire, and looking at Edward, who was still not red and breathless, Lim quietly ran to Barron's side, doubting life: "Captain, I now suspect that we may be dragging our feet......"
Barron frowned at the time: "You unlucky boy, what nonsense...... To be honest, ahem, we people have a lot of strength, and we may have something to help carry later, so we still have some use in this way. ”
Lim stuck out her tongue and rolled her eyes, "Isn't this just logistics?" ”
"So, how can the logistics be called a delay!"
