Chapter Eighty-Nine: Controlling the Undead, I'm a Villain!
"You have found the special quest item 'Undead Manipulation Orb'."
Undead Manipulation Orb (Tier S): After activating this item, the user can connect to the undead through psychic power to manipulate them. Note: This orb can only allow the user to control 1000 Tier C undead or 100 Tier B undead or 10 Tier A undead or 1 Tier S undead.
Treasure in hand, go! Wan Yi picked up the undead manipulation orb placed next to the sand table, tightened the pitch-black mage robe on his body, put on a hideous grimace mask, and dressed himself up like a necromancer who was used to hiding in the dark, and then stepped out of Devonville's alchemy laboratory in a dashing manner, and walked towards the ground!
Devonville's intelligence was not wrong. At this time, the kingdom's crusading forces have reached the depths of the Far Northern Desert, and they are trying to find the entrance to the laboratory built underground in Devonville. Because the wind and sand of the desert can easily hide the traces of biological movements, this NPC army of thousands of people can only rely on the accompanying mages to slowly perceive the possible entrance to the underground passage.
Wan Yi, as the villain of this dungeon, has to add some chaos to the enemy! Immediately, three thousand low-level undead troops were pulled out from the ground and surrounded the kingdom army, while Wan Yi himself hid far behind.
Although there were not many of these three thousand undead, they also stirred up the wind and sand in the sky, and they rushed towards the enemy with great momentum, and a great battle was about to break out.
Without the suppression of the "Dark Sky", although almost all of these 3,000 undead legions are only C-rank, they are still very murderous. Wan Yi can't wait to see their combat power!
However, the kingdom's crusading army is not a fuel-efficient lamp either. As soon as the two sides fought, a large number of undead skeletons fell in pieces, and the powerful human army was like a reef in the black wave, immovable and unshakable against the impact of the undead!
Seeing this result, Wan Yi in the distance couldn't help but use the "exploration technique" on the human warriors.

Yo! Wan Yi couldn't help but sigh, it turned out that this legion was the army of the Dark Moon Empire that was chased and beaten by St. Joyce I in the future historical plot! Now it seems that this army is still quite strong!
Seeing that his skeleton brothers couldn't hold it anymore, Wan Yi reached out and took out the pitch-black undead manipulation orb from his robe, and then slowly injected his spiritual power into it.
With Wan Yi's activation, several rays of dark blue spiritual power that seemed to be substance were emitted from the orb, and they submerged into the heads of the three A-rank skeletons on the battlefield. Then, Wan Yi felt that his consciousness had been completely connected with the three skeleton soldiers, and he was now able to control them without hindrance.
After gaining control of the skeletons, Wan Yi did not immediately operate them to attack, but hid behind his teammates to mend the knife, skillfully using a large number of undead as cover, and coldly stabbed out a sword, harvesting the enemy's life.
Wan Yi's tactics are very effective, as long as he slowly eats away at the lives of these Dark Moon Legion soldiers, victory will always be his.
However, the constantly falling human soldiers also caused alarm among the enemy. Soon, Wan Yi clearly felt that the three-headed undead skeleton he controlled was locked by the enemy's magician, and it was already a little late to hide at this time.
Three spears made of rocks shot from the rear of the Darkmoon Legion, and the three-headed A-rank skeletons that had been completely locked by their spiritual power couldn't avoid this simple killing move! Almost at the same time, he was pierced through the head by a rock spear!
With the soul fire of these three skeletons extinguished, Wan Yi obviously felt that his spiritual power had also lost a lot, and the whole person was a lot weaker.
Wan Yi deduced from the strength of the enemy's spell that there were actually strong mages close to the S rank in the enemy army! It seems that the Mage Association should have also sent high-level magicians to participate in this encirclement and suppression operation!
In this way, the defeat of these three thousand skeletons was only a matter of time, Wan Yi put away the undead to control the orb, and retreated from the battlefield to the ground without hesitation, after all, it was the home of the undead.
In this battle, although the undead legion controlled by Wan Yi only killed less than one hundred enemy soldiers, the loss of cannon fodder also made Wan Yi roughly understand the strength of the crusading army of the Dark Moon Empire, and Wan Yi still felt that he had earned it.
And the mages of the Dark Moon Empire also successfully found the entrance to the underground passage in the direction of the undead army's attack. After a short rest, the large army did not hesitate to march towards the underground base of Devonville.
This underground base has been built for many years, the passages are intricate, and the mechanisms are all over the place, which can be described as a step-by-step killing machine, coupled with those undead creatures lurking in the shadows, it is not easy for the crusading army to kill Davenville. What's more, now there is Wan Yi, a "lackey of the evil forces", who is obstructing it, and the troops of the Dark Moon Empire can be said to be struggling.
Sure enough, the crusading army didn't go far before they fell into two traps, a trap that shot a rain of arrows and killed many unprepared soldiers, plus a trap that emitted a highly poisonous and dead atmosphere, and the crusading army fell nearly 100 people.
Faced with this situation, the enemy's mage regiment finally stopped retaining its spiritual power and made a decisive move! With the magic protection that doesn't matter how much it consumes, these ordinary traps are hardly enough to inflict casualties on the crusaders, and the entire army is moving much faster.
Wan Yi, who was hidden in the shadows, finally couldn't help but make a move! Just as the troops of the Dark Moon Empire passed through a narrow passage, Wan Yi decisively activated a magic array arranged in the passage.
This magic circle is not the original mechanism of the underground laboratory, but the water and wind dual-system magic array specially arranged there by Wan Yi himself!
With the activation of the magic circle, a drifting rain directly blew in the entire passage, and all the torches in the hands of the enemy were extinguished by the rain. The crusaders of the Darkmoon Empire were plunged into boundless darkness at once! And the undead troops who were lying in ambush also took the opportunity to kill into the passage.
Although the Darkmoon Legion is known as the "Darkmoon", they do not have the ability to see at night. In this wave of attacks, which Wan Yi had been planning for a long time, he deliberately selected a large number of B-A rank undead as arrows!
The undead's attack instantly pierced the Darkmoon Legion's defenses! Moreover, under Wan Yi's deliberate arrangement, the fire element in this passage was extremely thin, and the enemy's mage tried to use the lighting spell several times, but all of them failed! For a time, the human army was overwhelmed, with heavy casualties!
Then, the powerful high-ranking mage in the crusading army struck again, and the rain turned into a sharp ice blade and sprinkled on the undead troops who kept pouring in from the entrance of the passage, slicing them to pieces! Under the suppression of this spell, no undead could enter this passage alive!
In the passage, the undead who had been fighting with the Darkmoon Legion were gradually strangled by the human forces who had slowed down after losing reinforcements, and the Darkmoon Legion once again stabilized its position!
Wan Yi couldn't help frowning, the battlefield environment he had specially arranged was also used by the enemy! Although this wave of raids also caused a lot of casualties to the enemy, it obviously did not achieve Wan Yi's expected effect
After a little hesitation, Wan Yi did not choose to retreat, but transferred a steady stream of low-level undead to the passage to send them to death! Since this high-level mage from the Mage Association is so strong, it is also a good choice to use cannon fodder to consume his mana!
However, this mage is not stupid either. After the power of the water element in the passage was consumed by a large amount, the mage group of the crusading army finally succeeded in casting the illumination spell, and the spell was cast to cooperate with the warriors of the Darkmoon Legion to quickly destroy the undead.
At this time, although the high-level mage stopped casting spells, it was difficult for the undead to take advantage of anything, so Wan Yi had no choice but to control the undead troops to stop attacking.
After passing through this passage, the Darkmoon Legion left behind hundreds of corpses and continued on their way, unwavering in their determination to destroy Devonville.
Of course, Wan Yi also has to play the role of the villain to the end!
