Chapter 27: The Graveyard
On the second floor, in another room, Gavin looked at the body being carried away and patted the lone wolf on the head. Pen, fun, and www.biquge.info
"Man, remember their smell. Wait a minute, we're going to get those two guys back. ”
"But before I can do that, I need to regain some mana."
He was touched by the friendship between Hank the fox man and Barton the kobold, but that wasn't a reason for him to want to get their bodies and bring them back to life.
The reason why he wanted to get his hands on Hank and Barton was because he needed someone who was familiar with the situation in Brimstone City as a guide, because he couldn't stay in the Midnight Hotel all the time, he needed to walk around and do what he wanted.
Hank is a smart guy and he would be a good guide.
Half an hour later.
Gavin left the Midnight Inn with the lone wolf.
Following the smell of corpses, they walked out of the city.
Soon, they walked through a tortuous crack and came to a cemetery.
This is the only cemetery in Brimstone City, where all the corpses are transported and buried to prevent them from decomposing and spreading the plague.
A magical barrier separates this from the outside world.
It's a very weak magical enchantment that even the most ordinary critters can't stop. Its only function is to isolate the cemetery from the outside world, preventing the decay of the cemetery from leaking out and causing a plague.
Gavin sensed the aura of necromancy.
The composition of the Dark Regions is very complex, and any race can appear, and naturally there are undead among them.
Necromancer, for example.
Mage is a relatively noble profession and is respected by ordinary people. The status of a formal mage is on par with that of a nobleman, if not slightly higher.
Most mages don't like to communicate with others and prefer to be quiet.
Rather than living in a town, they prefer to find a secluded place, build a mage hut, read books, meditate, and conduct magical experiments every day.
Necromancers are more withdrawn than mages.
The bodies corrupted by the energy of death have become extremely ugly, they have lost their appearance, they have lost their family, love, friendship, they have been far away from all the good things in the world, and they are disgusted by humans and other races, causing them to have a very bad temperament and be difficult to get along with.
This cemetery is the territory of a necromancer.
Every necromancer is a master of embalming corpses, and they are adept at embalming corpses using spells or alchemical potions, and then resurrecting them into zombies, or sewing them into flesh golems and stitching monsters through a series of means.
Almost no necromancer will resurrect a corpse into a skeleton, as skeletons are the weakest of all the undead.
Their bodies are fragile, their souls are weak, their strength is weak, and even their appearance is not terrifying enough to be of any effect at all.
Necromancers are rejected by most races because they deal with death and corpses, even in the Dark Regions.
Necromancers don't have a good life, and it's hard to get a corpse.
People in this world don't pay much attention to being buried in the ground, but no one wants their own corpses or those of relatives and friends to be manipulated by necromancers and turned into walking dead.
Therefore, anyone who has a little money will choose to bury the dead in the cemetery and hand it over to the grave keeper to manage.
Even in the Dark Regions.
Only those who died by accident, who died of illness, and who did not have relatives and friends to help collect their bodies, could fall into the hands of necromancers.
Therefore, they usually choose to live near the town, run a cemetery, use money, buy corpses from others, conduct evil magic experiments, or use it to absorb death energy and increase their strength.
In this world, there is only one place that is a paradise for necromancers, and that is the Western Dead Country.
It was once the largest and final battlefield of the War of the Gods three hundred years ago, hundreds of billions of lives died on that land, blood stained every land, and countless powerful undead were born.
Countless wraiths wail day and night, vampires dressed like nobles build castle after castle, thousands of lichs rule over hundreds of legions of the undead, and hundreds of dead dragons are left with only the bones of the forest......
Bone Dragon, Banshee King, Lich King, Vampire Prince, Skeletron, Zombie King......
Legendary undead survive there, and the living are not entered.
For three hundred years, even the most powerful legendary professionals did not dare to set foot in that land.
The Church of Light never wants to purify the undead there, but to this day, the Paladins have not made a single expedition to the west.
The Druid Church hated the undead, but the great Druid King forbade any Druid to set foot in the Western realm of the dead.
Because it's the world of the undead.
It has the largest number of legendary creatures and legendary professionals in the Continent of the Gods, and even the incomparably powerful Forgotten Mage is only one of hundreds of legendary undead.
It is said that in the core area of the realm of the dead, there are even the corpses of saints and gods!
The eyes of the legendary great psychic were fixed on the entire Realm of the Dead, and even the Pope did not dare to look at him!
Gavin scrutinized the graveyard in front of him.
The cemetery is not large.
A three-meter-high tombstone, standing at the entrance to the cemetery, is topped with pitch-black chains, locked to a huge skull, and two interlaced bones.
It was the skull of a large creature, as huge as a water tank, and it was very powerful.
Gavin shook his head slightly.
It was the skull of an elephant.
Although it looked like the skull of a mammoth after a simple magical treatment, Gavin recognized it as the skull of a normal elephant.
The necromancer who lives here is not too powerful.
In fact, the mighty necromancers would not have appeared here at all, and they all went to the Western Realm of the Dead. Only low-level necromancers who are down-and-out will appear outside the realm of the dead, because they have not yet been able to travel to the realm of the dead in the west, so they can only hide in the dark regions and survive with the protection of some powerful people.
In exchange, they will help the strong to dispose of the corpses in their dominion and avoid the plague.
To put it bluntly, they are corpse embalmers, that's all.
The necromancers here should be in this category.
Gavin stood in front of the tombstone and didn't go any further.
Trespassing into a necromancer's territory is a provocation and is likely to be attacked by the other party.
Gavin is here to do business, not to fight.
He didn't want to be an enemy of a necromancer with a backstage!
Even if he wanted to be an enemy, he would never enter the graveyard.
Fighting someone in a necromancer's territory is like looking for death!
The opponent can wake up hundreds of zombies, ghouls and ghosts in minutes, so you can know what is called a crowd tactic!
Gavin stopped where he was.
Two minutes later, a skeleton man emerged from the graveyard and came to Gavin.
