"Please take a look at this first." The young first secretary respectfully handed over a slate, and Bai Yi took it and found that it had recorded a video with the little magic he had developed back then, so he half-jokingly said, "You guys are infringing on my patent, right?" ”

As he spoke, he activated the magic on the slate, carefully examined the image on it, and after a few minutes, he put down the slate and asked with some confusion, "Why do I think it is more appropriate for you to find the church for this matter?" ”

The slate recorded a total of two images, one is a place that looks like a remote mountain village, which has been destroyed, and the murderer is a large group of skeleton soldiers, mixed with some zombies and a few wisps of ghosts that have just died, and the figure of a black horse and black armor can be seen in the distance.

The second section was much more spectacular, it was a flat wilderness, all kinds of dense necromantic creatures were slowly marching in a huge phalanx, and hordes of bone dragons could be seen in the sky, and they looked about the same size as the necromantic legion of the demigod lich back then.

The information that Bai Yi got from these two videos is probably that another lich has been promoted to the demigod level, ready to show off his might, make a big news, and use a remote town to sacrifice the flag, so he said that you should go to the church for this matter, and he himself is now a leading figure in the academic and educational circles, and he will definitely not care about these idle things.

"You should probably take another look at this." The secretary was noncommittal to Bai Yi's suggestion, and handed over a black emblem, and Bai Yi took a look at it, it was actually a very familiar and somewhat unfamiliar black flame, representing the old friend who had been absent for many years-the Fallen God Cult.

Since the battle of the Fallen God Sect in the Mars Plane, as the second lord Mad King said, after losing the support of the two huge forces of the Elven Empire and the Abyss Lord, it has rapidly declined, and the huge organization that used to be able to compete with the Church has become an inaccessible cult overnight, and the forces in various places have also begun to purge the remnants, including the forces of the North Continent that had been involved with it before, and even the people underworld have waved their butcher knives at the remnants of the Fallen God Cult.

In the face of such a general trend, Bai Yi gradually forgot about this former great enemy, he has a lot of things to pay attention to, and this kind of organization that is destined to perish is not worth worrying about.

As a result, he was slapped in the face ten years later, and the Fallen God Cult seemed to be resurrected again? And a powerful lich has been entrapped? But how much of a threat can a mere lich pose? Back then, the demigod lich was chased by people and ran away, just trying to rely on these necromantic creatures to fight against the huge power of the human race? Not very realistic.

So what is the purpose of the other party showing this image to himself? Why is this the way to start subsequent negotiations?

He seemed to have guessed the crux of something, and asked, "What's the matter with these necromancers?" It's not like a single lich can cause trouble, and I haven't heard of a massive necromancer infestation lately, so... Isn't this a product of another plane? ”

From the memory of the lich in the void, Bai Yi clearly knew that the lich was the master who would never hold together, and they were full of distrust of everything outside of their control, and several lichs united to hate the enemy, which could only appear in cold jokes.

And if a lich wants to build his necromantic legion, it must not just recite a spell and write a few numbers, they must create trouble everywhere to obtain a large number of corpses, which is not something that can be done overnight, and Bai also recalled all kinds of news in the past ten years, and there is no one lich who is responsible for the disaster, so the source of the necromantic legion in the image is very problematic.

The only explanation is that this is an image from another plane.

And the secretary immediately laughed after hearing Bai Yi's question, and sighed in a tone full of admiration: "It's not a loss, Lord Dean, just such a vague clue can deduce the general idea of the matter, indeed as you said, the second image comes from a large plane that has been recently discovered, which we call Diga, and these things are the masters there." ”

As mentioned earlier, there are many large and small planes in this world, and it is naturally impossible for people to set foot in every plane, so far, the planes that have not yet been discovered by people still account for the majority, in the final analysis, the main sphere of influence of human beings is still limited to the circle of the East plane.

The sudden discovery of a large plane that is enough to give birth to civilization is not big news, after all, the original Gufu plane and the Mars plane were discovered in this way, and what really puzzled Bai Yi was the latter paragraph.

"This is a plane ruled by a lich?" Bai Yi asked.

"No, these necromancers are not enslaved by anything, they are autonomous beings." The secretary said, "Each of these skeletons has a certain self-awareness, even if their intelligence is lower than that of animals, they are not completely unconscious tools, and their organizational structure is more similar to that of the demons in the abyss, where the strong drive the weak, rather than being completely controlled by necromancers like ordinary necromancers. ”

"A plane completely controlled by wild necromancers?" Bai Yi came to a surprising conclusion, understanding that he was in the void and asked the lich, "Is this a thing?" ”

Because necromancy is taboo in the world, and the reputation of the demigod lich has not been completely erased, the lich did not serve as a professor at the university, and Bai Yi was not in a hurry to let him out, which also facilitated the communication at this time.

"It's not entirely impossible." The lich replied that it was also being surprised by the discovery, "On East's side, wild necromancers exist, but they are scarce, often caused by some serendipitous accident, such as a natural necromantic transformation array, or a lich has made a mistake... But such a large-scale wild necromancer, and even every wild necronomicon that maintains a certain level of self-awareness, is unheard of! Now I'm curious about this place called Diga. ”

"Note that these necromancers are not the same as the ones we commonly understand as necromancers." The Lich added, "Necromancy, such as skeletons, in the normal sense of the word, is in fact a complete death of the soul, and only the remaining corpses are used by necromancy, which are purely moving tools; To create a self-aware necromancy requires fragments of the consciousness of the living, and as you know, this is a very complex process, and such a large-scale conscious necronomicon is obviously not a human handiwork, and I am very curious about the reason for their formation now..."

Hearing him say this, Bai Yi in reality nodded slightly, and continued to ask the secretary, "Then the Fallen God Cult colluded with these necromancy?" Yutu uses the power of the dead to make trouble? ”

"We can't be completely sure of this for the time being." The secretary replied seriously, "We found this Black Flame Emblem in the attacked village, maybe it was inadvertently left by those cultists, or it may have been left behind after they were attacked, we are not even sure what connection there must be between the two, maybe the attack on the village was just the handiwork of a local lich?" But no matter how you guess, the Cult of the Fallen God has something to do with necromancy, that's for sure. ”

"And you want me to look into it?" Bai Yi followed his words and asked.

"Yes, Dean, you are an expert in dealing with such incidents, and you are also the number one enemy of the Fallen God Cult, we can't think of a more suitable person than you, and in order to show our sincerity, we are willing to add your name to the new round of arms bidding." The secretary said these words very calmly, which sounded good, but were actually very shameless.

Why is Bai Yi the most suitable candidate? It's not because he's very powerful and has a strong ability to solve crimes, but because he's not under his own control, so no matter what kind of results he causes later, the impact on the empire's side can be minimized, and the empire's move is simply to hire a mercenary who doesn't like it to solve those super dangerous tasks.

And the price they paid was just a spot in the arms bid? This is very ridiculous, you must know that although the current supply of armaments is controlled by a few wealthy families, they still have to pretend to engage in open bidding every year, but everyone knows the specific results, and it is just for the ordinary people to see.

The other party wanted to play such a trick of the white wolf with empty gloves, which suddenly made Bai Yi feel that his IQ had been insulted, so he immediately stood up, turned his head and left without saying anything, and the Duke of the South, who had not said a word before, hurriedly got up to stop him, and said very seriously: "My friend, you should at least believe me, this matter is not what you think." ”

As he spoke, he dragged Bai Yi back to his seat and told him the story behind it in detail.

It turned out that a wealthy clan that was originally in control of the supply of armaments suddenly encountered an accident - the young heirs of their family went to the Io Mountains on a whim, and accidentally bumped into the legendary mountain barbarians.

With such a blood feud, it is naturally impossible to say that it will be released, the parents of the wealthy clan immediately asked the emperor to send troops to recruit these hateful barbarians, and the emperor allocated 2,000 elite soldiers to him in the face of affection, and also equipped 20 mages, thinking that it was just an uncivilized barbarian tribe, this is not to push over and hit GG?

Then they played GG themselves, and several family members lost their lives together, and the entire family plummeted from the top to the top in just one year.

As you can guess later, such a declining family is naturally not qualified to continue to get involved in the arms supply business, and the empire needs to change suppliers.
