Night falls.

A place dozens of miles west of the border camp.

……

In the wilderness, a huge stone arch stands silently. Near the arch, there are many white-robed figures who are engrossed in patrolling.

The huge fixed portal set in the ten major territories of Errios requires at least one Blue Sea-level mage on each side to keep it open, and it can transfer a large number of troops and food and grass in a very short time, which is one of the important bases for fighting in Errios's homeland.

With the exception of Elrios, no other country has so many large fixed portals.

Since the beginning of the war, the large portal of the Norwegian Territory of Murcha has been opened many times, sending more than seventy percent of the troops and nearly ninety percent of the grain and grass to the front-line battalion. When the portal closes, it is guarded by eighteen loyal Blue Sky Battlemages.

None of the guards chose to rest tonight. Eighteen people worked in pairs, guarding the gate cautiously.

The sporadic rumors coming from the Pure White City frightened them. In the name of inquiring about the news, eighteen mages sent their attendants and disciples away. They understood that if the enemy sent an elite squad to steal the portal, these ordinary people and junior mages of the sea of clouds would only get in the way.

But even so...... They also could not escape the fate arranged for them by Speaker Nicholas.

……

On a small hill a few miles away.

Wei in a mask has a cold gaze, holding the "Eye of Chaos" in his hand, and the muzzle of the black hole is facing into the distance, the guardians of the portal. His eyes gleamed with arcane brilliance, taking in everything that was there.

"Eighteen in all." He said softly.

"This is already an extremely luxurious configuration," Wei side, Levy? Fyodorovich's turquoise eyes shone brightly, "Confidence?" Alarm no one and annihilate them all......"

"With you as the 'Dharma Protector,'" Wei said, "I have nothing to worry about." ”

"You don't hesitate anymore?" Levi asked with interest, "Could it be that you have seen your own territory and your mentality has changed?" ”

"I've never had any hesitation." Wei said.

You don't need to be soft-hearted, he said to himself. You are the executioner who once "eroded dozens of miles with one shot". You don't need extra kindness...... Just calmly make the most rational choice.

Leveling the "Eye of Chaos" and taking a deep breath.

Then pull the trigger.

Under the effect of the "mute technique", a bullet the size of a mung bean emitting black smoke silently swept through the night sky and flew towards the heart of the first mage.

……

A mage on patrol, his steps suddenly stopped.

"What's wrong?" His companion asked, puzzled.

"Nothing," the mage said in a hoarse voice, "let's go." ”

……

Indeed, with spells such as "Eagle Eye", "Eyes of Chaos" can be barely used for sniping.

But simply using sniping to kill eighteen Qingkong-level mages in one go, this is tantamount to a fool's dream.

But the combination of "Eternal Blood" and "Pale Moon" has turned this fantasy into reality.

With the second-class artifact staff "Staff of Scalul" in his hand, "Pale Moon" Levi? Fedorovich converted the ether metal he had collected for years into a total of more than forty projectiles. Each projectile condenses the necromantic power that he himself has purified to the extreme.

As long as the necromantic bullet is injected into the heart of a creature, it can be completely transformed into a necro creature in a heartbeat, completely following the commands designed by the living lich Levi. The bullets made of ether metal were so small and massless that even though the eighteen mages did their best to open the guard barrier, they still didn't notice Wei's shot.

The mage didn't expect that his companion had only paused for half a second, and he had already turned into a talking walking corpse. He can still respond to the conversation as he should be, and even continue to "patrol" mechanically, but he is no longer his former self. In a few days, with the decay of the brain and the fading of the soul, even this last of wisdom will be lost.

The next second, the mage, who had not noticed anything unusual, had his vest pierced by the necromantic projectile.

The two "zombies" did not make any action and continued to patrol along the established route. The others didn't even notice that they had lost two of their companions.

……

In order to transform an adult's body into an undead, Wei must infuse Levi's necromantic aura directly into the target's heart, killing or seriously injuring it at the same time...... As long as Wei shot a little off and didn't hit the heart directly, the damage to the person would not be as good as an ordinary projectile.

Even if they shoot a necromantic bullet into a person's hands and feet, they will only get seriously ill.

If the enemy has the ability to "stay alive after being shot through the heart", or has magical armor that can defend against attacks from the aether element, or if they have been impregnated with necromancy or anti-necromancy for a long time, or if their psychic power exceeds that of Levi too much...... It is also enough to withstand such an attack.

These Elrios mages are all Blue Sky Beginner and Blue Sky Level. Of course, unlike the "Golden Generation" who reached the Blue Sky level at a young age, these mages have relatively mediocre talents, and many of them are sent to do the job of gatekeepers after it is difficult to move forward in this life. This is also an important reason why Wei and Levy judged that "this plan is feasible".

Erios strictly forbade ordinary mages from openly studying necromancy. Levi even double-checked the information of the eighteen men before setting out, and was sure that none of them were good at resisting the necromancy.

I don't know who it is...... There is a special ability hidden that can undo the effects of necromantic transformation. If they encounter this kind of guy as soon as they come up and successfully warn their companions, Wei and Levy can only choose to forcibly suppress this place.

The projectiles were Levi's greeting to Nicholas, and he swore with a magical oath that he had nothing to hide. According to Nicholas, this kind of conspiracy seems to be powerful, but once it is discovered, it is greatly diminished, so it is not a pity to consume more.

……

Wei fired one after another.

One gatekeeper after another was transformed into Necrons controlled by Lévy, and their remaining companions were unaware.

It wasn't until fifteen of the eighteen were converted and shot at the third-to-last man that Wei suffered his first defeat. The necromantic projectile hit him in the heart, but instead of being transformed into a necromancy, he covered his heart and stared at the direction where the bullet was fired.

When he was young, the middle-aged mage had secretly practiced a spell to manipulate blood, and his heart fell with a hidden disease. He didn't let others realize that he was studying forbidden arts, and bought artificial puppet hearts on the black market to implant them in his body.

Necro Bullets do not affect Alchemy Hearts. Most of the necromantic aura dissipated directly, and the rest burrowed into the blood vessels around his heart, making him unsteady on his feet, but still alive.

He opened his mouth to utter a warning spell. But his companions, who have been reduced to zombies, stop all this. Before he could pronounce the first spell, the zombie grabbed him by the neck. He made a "ho-ho" sound from his mouth, but he could no longer perform an arcane art.

And Wei's "Eyes of Chaos" didn't stop. Strange to say, he felt that his sanity had never been so clear.

The last two shots hit the hearts of the two remaining guards with unmistakable accuracy. After confirming that all seventeen of them had been transformed into Levi's puppets, Wei reloaded his regular bullets to deliver a final blow to the guy who was still alive.

Wei immediately realized that there was no need for this. The zombie who was still the man's companion had already broken his neck.

Lévy sighed softly. In the end, these weak Qingkong-level mages were completely wiped out without even the ability to send out alarms, but unfortunately he thought of several back-ups to no avail.

"Let's go open the gates," Pale Moon said calmly, "to meet our legions." ”
