Chapter 784: Ghosts
Lin Li harnessed the bone red dragon, glanced at the army of undead below that was already like a vast ocean, and did not hesitate for a moment.
Seeing Lin Li leave suddenly, Sein, Elder Randy and the others suddenly sank to the bottom of their hearts. No one knew what the young magician was going to do when he left at this time. In their opinion, the biggest possibility is probably to abandon themselves and others and escape alone.
Elder Thein and Elder Randy still vividly remembered the murderous corridor on the last floor of the Central Tower. Of all the people, only the young magician was able to pass through the corridor and enter the hall at the back. If he did escape back there, I am afraid that even the terrifying undead creatures in the sky would not be able to enter it through the spatial traps in the corridor.
You know, the spatial trap in that corridor was created by the Immortal King with a powerful force close to the gods. Not to mention that the strength of the undead creatures in the sky was close to the Holy Domain, even if they really reached the Holy Domain, it would be impossible to break through the blockade of that space trap. It can be said that after the awakening of the undead creature, in the entire Sky City, there is only the hall on the sixth floor, which is an absolutely safe place.
Of course, they also knew that if they were trapped in that hall, they might not be able to get out anytime soon. Unless you reach the level of the Sanctuary and have the strength to contend with that undead creature, it is possible to die in it. However, considering the young magician's age, thinking about what he had achieved so far, and thinking about the Eternal Tree in his hand and the huge magic crystal, maybe it was really possible to reach the Sanctuary and kill it.
Looking at Lin Li's distant back, Sein, Elder Randy and the others were in extremely complicated moods for a while, with envy and jealousy, as well as a hint of faint resentment. Although they all know that no one is obliged to accompany them to death, it is actually normal for them to fly separately when disaster strikes.
In fact, Lin Li himself had already thought of the retreat from the central tower, and he could definitely ensure his safety by relying only on the space trap of that corridor. However, he didn't want to hide in there unless he had to, what was the difference between that and captivity. Besides, he is not alone now, and the Tower of Dusk still needs to be presided over by himself. Don't wait for yourself to have the strength to leave, the Tower of Dusk, which has been developed with great difficulty, has fallen or even disappeared.
What's more, Lin Li was still thinking about Osric's mausoleum, where there were very likely star fragments of nothingness, which played a very important role in his promotion to the Holy Domain. If you have the Seven Star Fragments in hand now, it would be a good choice to retreat in the central tower for a while. But now in his hands, there are only four star fragments, and it is undoubtedly much more difficult to reach the realm of the Holy Land.
Harnessing the skeletal red dragon, Lin Li rose into the air, overlooking the towers scattered in all directions below, the thirty-six towers that formed the psychic array, and at the same time, they were also the magic nodes of the huge conquering demon pattern. Under the manipulation of Lin Li, the skeleton red dragon slowly circled, from the tower to the surrounding streets, to the buildings around the streets, taking in everything in full view.
According to speculation, if the power of the psychic array is not obtained by converting the magic elements in the space, then there must be other ways to input the power. Only by knowing the way to gain power can Lin Li be targeted and come up with a method that is enough to affect the operation of the psychic array.
The psychic array is composed of thirty-six towers, and these thirty-six towers are closely related to each other, what is the core, and how are they closely linked to form this psychic array. How do other forces that are the driving force play a role in the psychic array, and how do they transform into the power of death.
The tower is both a component of the psychic array and a magic node for conquering the magic pattern, and although the cobweb-like streets on the ground are not very complicated, it really takes considerable eyesight to distinguish between the two. And with the current situation, there is no room for pondering and research, and there is no time to calculate and measure, what can be relied on is a pair of eyes and the knowledge in the mind.
Lin Li's brows were furrowed, his eyes stared at the patterns painted by the streets on the ground without blinking, and he was processing all kinds of information at a high speed in his mind, and after finding the part related to the psychic array, he chased all the way towards the source of the magic.
However, when Lin Li saw the part that injected magic power into the psychic array, he couldn't help but be stunned for a moment. It turned out that after chasing all the way to the end, he actually found that although the tower was a component of the psychic array, the street that constituted the conquering magic pattern was still used to transmit the power of the psychic array.
"This ...... It's incredible! Lin Li was immediately stunned by his discovery, this was not as simple as stacking the two diagrams together, but it was equivalent to completely inlaying the Conquest Demon Pattern and the Psychic Array together.
Whether it is a magic pattern or a magic array, it is a very rigorous discipline, and it is the most intolerant of a little mistake. In the process of drawing, a change in a line or a node may lead to the failure of the entire Magic Pattern Magic Array. And now, the Conquest Magic Pattern and Psychic Array in front of Lin Li are actually sharing a magic circuit, as if they are a pair of conjoined children, with different brains but the same heart.
Of course, the analogy is conjoined, not that there is anything wrong with such a psychic array. On the contrary, no matter who created this psychic array, such a simple and efficient design can be called a miraculous skill, and it is unlikely that even Lin Li will be able to do it if he asks himself.
If there is still time, Lin Li must study carefully the various special connections between this psychic array and the conquest of the demon pattern. I believe that even if I have reached the grandmaster level in terms of inscriptions, I can still get a lot of inspiration from it. It's a pity that what Lin Li lacks most now is time, the army of the undead has almost filled half of the sky city, and the terrifying aura above his head is getting stronger and stronger, as if the undead creature may awaken at any time.
Just as Lin Li was thinking about dealing with this psychic array, suddenly the hairs on his body stood on end for no reason, and a creepy feeling rose from his heart. Lin Li, who had a sense in his heart, looked up at the sky, but saw that in the tumbling black fog, a pair of scarlet eyes were looking at him fiercely through the thick black fog.
"Conneris, that guy in the sky, could it be Osric, if it's really Osric, I'm afraid his strength should be more than just close to the Sanctuary." Lin Li could already clearly feel the fluctuations in the magic emitted by the undead creature in the sky. Now, the appearance of the undead creature is very close to the moment of awakening, but infinitely close to the Holy Domain means that it is not yet the Holy Domain, and the gap between this is very huge.
The Great Lord Osric, who was a true powerhouse above the Sanctuary back then, now that he had obtained all the undead magic inheritance of the Immortal King, there seemed to be no reason for him to fall into the Sanctuary when he transformed into an undead creature. Even if he inevitably lost some of his power when he transformed into an undead creature, the realm came more from the perception of the rules, and the perception would not disappear due to the weakening of the magic power.
Unless Osric had some accident during the transformation and lost his memories of perception, but this may be very small. If it were another necromancer, it might have been a mistake, but what kind of character was Osric, a brilliant genius of the Dark Ages, and a disciple of the Immortal King.
"This ...... I'm not sure, but the undead creature already has a clear appearance, both in terms of appearance and magic fluctuations, it seems to be very similar to Osric. Conneris also felt that it didn't make sense, but in the years he spent with Osric, with his own understanding of Osric, there was no reason why he would recognize the wrong person.
"No, no, there is definitely a problem, even if Osric transforms himself into an undead creature, he should directly transform into a lich, and he doesn't need to be bred in this psychic array for so many years. Even Osric's younger brother has successfully transformed himself into a lich, and with Osric's intelligence, such a low-level mistake will never occur. Lin Li's mind was haunted by a fog, but the focus now was not to find out the identity of the undead creature, but to find a way to solve the dilemma in front of him. He shook his head, drove the skeletal red dragon, and flew towards a tower.
However, at this time, I saw that in the army of the undead, a force suddenly branched out, several bone dragons and a few vampires, flying straight towards Lin Li's side, obviously trying to prevent Lin Li from approaching the target's tower.
Lin Li was slightly startled in his heart, the undead army that appeared from the tide of death and kept summoning only blocked everyone's path to the teleportation circle, but it didn't seem to have a clear mission, just instinctively attacking the approaching enemy. But now, the appearance of this force shows that this group of undead creatures seems to have a command, and the one who commands them is undoubtedly the undead creature of unknown origin in the sky.
"That guy is waking up!" Lin Li was also a little anxious in his heart, if the undead creature above his head really awakened, I was afraid that he would not even have a chance to escape back to the central tower.
Thinking of this, Lin Li simply summoned both Nophil and Uy Farusi over and asked them to block the undead creatures for him. Lin Li, on the other hand, flew down the skeleton red dragon, performed his flying skills, and continued to fly towards the tower.
"I thought of it, I thought of it!" Conneris's slightly excited voice suddenly rang out.
"Say it quickly when you think of it, I don't have time to play a guessing game with you," Lin Li said as he waved the Sun King's scepter, freezing more than a dozen miles in a row, directly freezing a bone dragon blocking the way into ice.
"It's a ghost, it's definitely it, yes." Conneris also knew that now was not a good time to quarrel with Lin Li, so he hurriedly said his guess, and this time he said it with great certainty.
Lin Li finally floated down in front of a tower, and the Sun King's scepter continued to burst out with light, and one after another magic was unleashed, cleaning up the few scattered undead around the tower in an instant. At the same time, in his heart, he asked Conneris, "What kind of undead creature is a ghost, and is there such a thing in an undead creature?" ”
"I'm not sure if there are any undead creatures, but I know that the current ghost is likely to have been created by Osric with the Eternal Crucible." Although Conneris is an ancient demon god, the types of undead creatures are not in the undead world, and it is impossible to know what other strange species are among them. However, the undead creature in the sky has the appearance and similar aura of Osric, and since it can't be Osric himself, it is completely certain that Osric cannot be separated from it.
"The undead creatures that Osric created with the Eternal Crucible?" Lin Li couldn't help but be shocked when he heard Conneris's words. The creation of life has long been regarded as the realm of the gods, and although Osric created undead creatures, undead creatures are in a sense another form of life.
"Originally, Osric created this thing out of the souls of 100,000 rebels, and a body that had been replicated for himself in the Eternal Crucible, and later he named it a ghost." Conneris thought of Osric's methods, and even though the guy had sealed himself in the hammer, he had to admire it a little.
Conneris is an ancient demon god, and for him, humans are just one of the many lives that have appeared in the Anriel continent in his long life. Just as Osric used the souls of 100,000 rebels as materials, in Conneris's eyes, those souls were a material that was not very precious.
But Lin Li, after hearing the origin of the ghost, even though he had traveled to this Enric world, he still couldn't help but take a breath of cold air. Fuck, Osric really lives up to the name of a butcher, using the souls of 100,000 rebels as alchemy materials, no wonder that era is called the Dark Ages, no wonder the High Elves were wiped out after they were overthrown, and they didn't even keep the Tree of Eternity.
Lin Li didn't know if there was a reincarnation of the soul in this world, maybe after the 100,000 rebels were killed, the soul would not be long before it dissipated. Osric's approach, to put it coldly, is waste utilization. However, by forcibly smelting these 100,000 souls together in the Eternal Furnace, the pain that those souls endured is probably unimaginable to anyone.
However, Lin Li knew very well that those things that had already happened were no longer his turn to worry about at all, and the entire High Elf clan had been wiped out anyway. As for now, even if you know that the undead creatures in the sky are not Osric himself, but something called a ghost that was created.
