Chapter 18: The Necromancer

When the figure walked out, Wright couldn't help but gasp.

Standing in the middle of the three 'figures' is an old man with long yellow hair and a thin body similar to a skeleton, the old man's clothes are very gorgeous, but the green eyes are even more terrifying.

However, it wasn't just the skeleton-looking old man who made Wright gasp.

Standing in front of the old man, resisting Wright's enhanced version of the 'Burst Fireball' just now, was a skeleton that was more than two meters tall. The skeleton was tall and thick with bones that did not resemble a human, as if they were made of jade. The bones of his arms seemed to be cracked, and he was clutching a hard shield with a pitch-black surface that seemed to have been left behind by resisting the 'Bursting Fireball'.

To the right of the old man was a knight in black armor, with a heavy sword on his back and a horse with pure black hair under his crotch. But the problem was that the knight's head was being dragged by his left hand, and the horse's body under his crotch seemed to be half decomposed, and the faintly visible white bones radiated a green glow.

"Skeleton General? Headless Horsemann? You're a necromancer! Wright's face remained unchanged, but there was also some apprehension in his heart.

Eighth-level warriors and even eighth-level demonic beasts are not terrifying, and now Wright himself is sure to resist most eighth-level warriors one-on-one. If it is an eighth-level magician, in fact, it will be more difficult to deal with after opening up the distance, although his spiritual power has not yet reached the eighth level, but relying on his control and realm of the elements, the power of the 'bursting fireball' just now is not inferior to the 'bursting fireball' of ordinary eighth-level magicians.

But the necromancer among the three legendary magicians must not be treated with common sense. Many of the books Wright has read have highly regarded the three superior magics, namely the Great Prophecy, the Life Magic, and the Necromancy Magic.

Necromancy may seem evil, but it's also incredibly powerful. Normal magicians contract up to three magical beasts as helpers, but necromancers never contract magical beasts because they can summon undead! Moreover, there is no limit to the number of undead summoned who can only contract three-headed demonic beasts. Theoretically, any necromancer is equivalent to an army, and can easily summon hundreds of undead to fight! The legendary undead forbidden magic 'Undead Scourge' can summon the undead of the Sanctuary and have the terrifying power to conquer a country.

Even without considering the summoned undead, the necromancer itself has a series of magics such as curses, poisonous mist, bone spears, etc., which are no less weird than dark magic.

Overall, one necromancer is equivalent to a combination of ten other magicians and warriors of the same level!

And the two undead summoned by the magician in front of him were undoubtedly at the eighth level. Necromancers, on the other hand, are unlikely to summon undead spirits beyond their level.

In other words, it is equivalent to the combination of ten eighth-level magicians and warriors that Wright has to deal with. Wright is really not very sure about this, in contrast, Wright would rather try to fight alone with the eighth-level Warcraft, after all, he is strong in attack power, and he lacks a lot in defense.

On the other side, Arnold, the undead archmage who looks like a skeleton, is also a little undecided.

The most powerful thing about necromancers is that they summon the undead, which is common sense. However, for those who have inherited the undead magic, it is not easy to summon the undead, if it is the kind of weak undead with a great difference in level, it can be summoned at will, but if it is close to the level, it is necessary to contract the undead, and then summon it through the contract.

If you want to contract with the undead, there are three ways, the most orthodox method is to use undead magic meditation, the power of the soul infiltrates into the underworld, and directly communicates with the undead in the underworld to make a contract, but this method is very difficult. And the easiest way is to have a land of the undead in the material plane where you are located, and then go directly to the land of the undead to capture the undead, but there is no such place on the Magnolia continent at all. And the most evil way is to capture the human powerhouse and then transform it into undead, warriors can be transformed into zombies or all kinds of undead knights, and mages can be transformed into skeleton mages or even corpses.

Arnold is one such evil necromancer who specializes in undead transformation. He was born in the gang, and he did not mix in the upper class like other magicians, but he knew more about the methods of some gangs, in fact, in the lower towns or slums of many large cities in the Puon Empire, there were gangsters he supported.

One of the most important tasks of these gangsters is to find out the information of powerful warriors and magicians, and once some powerful people enter the lower city or slums or other places alone, they may be attacked and killed by him. Because in a place like Xiacheng, there are no city guards patrolling at all, and the density of the strong is very small. Every time he quickly attacked a warrior or mage who was slightly weaker than his own strength, he quickly fled after a successful blow. Even if he was discovered by the forces behind these strong men, it was these gangster organizations that were eliminated, and he didn't feel distressed at all.

This time, I was supposed to receive a summons from a gang organization under my command, and there was a courtyard somewhere where that might have treasures left. Don't think that a magician doesn't want wealth, if he has enough gold, he can even go to the black market to buy a large number of slaves, and use some necromancy to cultivate a collective undead similar to 'abomination'.

And this courtyard was supposedly very young, about a fifth-level magician. This is naturally a surprise for him, he is a little unsightly to a fifth-level warrior, but fifth-level magicians are still quite rare, and they can be transformed into skeleton mages.

Of course, even if it is such a young magician, he will do his best, after all, he is not trapped by someone hiding his strength, not once or twice. But I didn't expect that such a young magician was no less powerful than some senior eighth-level magicians, and even the magic released was quite deceptive, obviously a seventh-level magic 'Bursting Great Fireball', which looked the same as a fifth-level 'Great Fireball Technique'. In just one attack, the 'Skeleton General' among the three eighth-level undead under his command was not lightly injured, although he couldn't see it from the outside, but he was contracted with the undead, and he could naturally feel the shattering degree of the skeleton general's bones.

If he wanted to fight, he was sure that the eighth-level magician would defeat or even kill, but he was not sure that he would kill quietly and not be noticed by other strong people! The mage fights too loudly.

If you want to retreat, not to mention the preciousness of the eighth-level corpse demon that you may obtain, it is too embarrassing.

The two were afraid of each other, and when they were confronting each other, a voice suddenly came from the door.

"Senior brother, senior brother, are you there! I'm here to see little Elek! A girl's voice came.

The faces of the two changed at the same time, Arnold was afraid that others would find out, after all, his identity could not be revealed, and once exposed, he had to escape. And Wright heard that it was his sister Betty's voice, and if her sister was hurt or even killed because of this. , then I am afraid that I will feel guilty for a lifetime.

The two of them started almost at the same time.

Arnold quickly chanted the incantation, he was about to summon his strongest undead, and at the same time, the headless horseman beside him drew his heavy sword and rode the undead horse to launch a short dash against Wright, although the movement was a little sluggish, but full of momentum.

However, Wright is faster, although he is only at the level of a sixth-level warrior and has not yet broken through, but under the completely subtle muscle control, he is more than a step ahead of the headless horseman with stiff movements in terms of dexterity.

His legs slammed on the ground, and his body was like a sharp arrow, swinging slightly as it collided with the Headless Horseman, staggering past. And at this moment, a layer of rock armor had appeared on Wright's body.

The headless horseman with stiff movements didn't even react, and even sprinted forward eleven or twelve meters before reacting.

And at this moment, Wright picked up two well-built weapons and headed straight for the necromancer.

The necromancer was also surprised, he didn't expect that the other party was actually a magician and a warrior, and the strength of the warrior was not even worse than that of a magician.

However, he didn't have any worries, for necromancers, warriors were much less of a threat than magicians, and even at the moment he was taunting Wright for not using magic to attack, and simple warriors were at a loss to the undead.

When Wright was fifteen steps away from the necromancer, a red light faintly appeared on his body, and the fire type auxiliary magic "blood boiled"!

When Wright was ten steps away from the necromancer, a pair of long swords ignited with flames, and the fire-based auxiliary magic "Flame Additional"!

When Wright was five steps away from the necromancer, the space on the necromancer's side tumbled up, and a dimensional passage appeared, and a pair of transparent and slightly blood-red hands stretched out unusually slowly from the spatial passage.

"Click, click!" Wright slashed at the skeleton general with a pair of long swords, cut the steel shield with one sword, and slashed the skeleton general's body from top to bottom with one sword.

The green soul fire in the skeleton general's eyes suddenly lit up, and it was instantly annihilated.
