Chapter 211: The Necromancer Who Took the Initiative (One Update!) )
The mercenaries formed a defensive line with shields at the entrance to the town, struggling to fend off the onslaught of the undead.
Even though the mercenaries have killed a large number of undead creatures, the number of undead creatures is still increasing.
"Wait, what's that in the sky?"
A mercenary in the back row regained his strength, pointing to a group of dark shadows that appeared in the sky shrouded in clouds.
Defending against the undead with a shield in the front row is a very physically draining task, especially for the heavy impact of zombies.
If it's a skirmish, they can also dodge.
But sometimes, there is always a situation where you can't back down.
"Be careful, it's an air raid!"
The person in charge of the small mercenary camp took a look at it and reacted quickly.
He had experienced wars between kingdoms and enemy countries, and although his strength was average, he was lucky enough to save his life from the war that could be called a meat grinder.
Under the vigilant gaze of the mercenaries, the black shadow in the sky suddenly pounced!
"Ahh My face!! ”
A mercenary tore at the monster that landed in his face in agony, his entire head wrapped in the kite-like monster.
The intense pain aroused the mercenary's ferocity, and he gritted his teeth and tore the monster off his face with all his strength!
"Tear the ......"
Because of the forcible tearing, the mercenary's face showed a bloody blur!
The monster struggled in the hands of the mercenary, its strength was not too great, it was like an ordinary person.
However, it's very flexible, making it easy to evade the mercenary's defenses and then attack them.
"Poof!"
The mercenary pierced the monster's skin-like body with the long sword in his hand, and suddenly, after a sound like piercing the leather, the monster, which had been struggling very violently, completely stopped moving.
"Whirring ......"
The mercenary gasped with difficulty, his face felt hot, and blood was dripping......

At this time, Yi Qiu and the others had already taken advantage of the mercenaries to attract the attention of the undead creatures, and killed them from the small alley next to them.
Inside the town, the view gets even worse.
And under the blasphemous power of the clouds, if the will is not strong enough, it is easy to fall into a state of panic.
However, with the presence of paladins, this level of environmental interference does not make much of a difference.
The Paladin's ability to gain Courage and Aura at level 3 not only makes the Paladin himself completely immune to fear, but also allows nearby companions to gain a higher Will Check effect when fighting fear.
The alley that Yi Qiu and the others cut into was clinging to the tall city walls that surrounded the town, and there was only a row of houses between them.
Because of the corrosive effect of negative energy, many buildings look crumbling.
However, without the interference of external forces, they can remain in this delicate balance for a long time.
As the crowd went deeper, the alley began to get narrower.
The paladin Ilya was the first to lead, and the sounds of the undead and the mercenaries were no longer audible, and it seemed that only their footsteps were left in the town.
"Da Da ......"
"Da Da ......"
"Dada...... Da Da ......"
At this moment, the holy warrior Ilya suddenly stopped.
There were 5 of them, but he seemed to hear the footsteps of 6 people just now!
"What's wrong?"
Warrior Isaac instantly took a combat stance and asked as he looked around vigilantly.
"Detect evil!"
Ilya looked around and didn't see anything wrong, but he was sure he couldn't be mistaken.
As a necromancer, Ilya didn't think he would have the illusion skills to hallucinate a paladin.
So he prayed, and an invisible wave spread out of his body.
Detect evil!
As if sensing something, the paladin suddenly swung his sword at Lille's shadow!
"Poof!"
It looked like the Paladin's sword had slashed into the ground, but it made a sound that looked like sulfuric acid corroding an object!
Obviously, the paladin's longsword has some kind of powerful positive energy effect attached to it, which can deal a lot of damage to the undead.
Without hesitation, the paladin swung his second sword again!
This attack completely eliminated the monster hidden in Lille's shadow, and after a puff of black smoke, the paladin put away his sword.
"Binding the spirit or the ghost?"
The paladin frowned, compared to zombies or skeletons.
On the race level, Spectres and Bound Spirits are higher.
The difficulty of its summoning will naturally increase a lot.
With the enchanted longsword rewarded by the outstanding graduating paladins of the same period, the paladin can destroy skeletons and zombies with just one swing.
But for the ghosts and binders, he had to make up for it.
If the monsters guarding the necromancer are ghosts and binders, then this is obviously a very tricky thing.
…………

As Yi Qiu and the others continued to go deeper, they encountered monsters more and more.
Most of the time, they are zombies, skeletons and other monsters that are active in their former houses, and when they feel the breath of a living person, they pounce like mad dogs, and then turn into wreckage under the attack of others.
And just as they were about to walk through the alley to the entrance to the town's market, the monsters were all gone.
This town was responsible for the circulation of goods between many towns before the market of the valley of the small mercenary camp appeared.
But when the necromancer conquered the town, there was no town to take over the job due to some concern. Instead, it was agreed that a fixed time each month would be held in the valley where the small mercenary camp was located.
Yi Qiu followed the team and looked around, the decaying houses were empty, as if this area had been abandoned by the town.
But this side is close to the entrance of the town's market, which is obviously unreasonable.
At this moment, the paladin who was the first to walk out of the alley stopped, and in front of him, a group of zombies were quietly watching them.
And in the sky, dense kite-like monsters are floating above.
In the midst of the zombies, a pale-skinned man was standing, holding a staff in the shape of a skull.
There is no doubt that this is the goal of Yi Qiu and the others: the necromancer!
"You look surprised?"
To everyone's surprise, the necromancer did not rush to expel its army of undead to attack Yi Qiu and them, but said slowly in his voice that had become hoarse from the erosion of negative energy.
"You think I should be hiding in a corner and shivering? Or is it lying on your stomach and watching you from a hidden place? ”
"Maybe there are idiots who will do that, but I won't."
"This is my homeland, why do you think I'm going to bow down to you invaders who brutally murdered my countrymen?"
The necromancer raised his skeletal staff:
"Save more flesh and blood for that bald head and female mage, I'm going to make a new companion out of their corpses......"
Suddenly, the monster that was originally stationary rushed towards everyone in an instant!
