Chapter 64: The Secret of the Undead

"Holy Light! This is the power of the Light! Archduke Josephine exclaimed in surprise when he felt the sudden explosion of magic fluctuations in the distance.

The next moment, Archduke Josephine, who felt that the blood connection between Tom and Mary and him had been interrupted instantly, suddenly turned pale.

"It doesn't matter who you are! You're dead! ”

Looking at the dark canopy that was about to be completed in front of him, Archduke Josephine, who had always tried his best to maintain his aristocratic demeanor, completely tore off his hypocritical side. Archduke Josephine, who revealed the true identity of a vampire, let out a sharp roar towards the busy undead with a hideous face: "Speed up for me!" If it can't be done before sunset today! I'll give you eternal sleep! ”

Seeing the Grand Duke's rage, the soul fire in the eyes of the skeleton laborers suddenly trembled, and the originally orderly project was suddenly chaotic.

However, before the Grand Duke could get angry, the undead laborers quickly restored order and sped up without regard to their own losses.

The low-level undead do not have the right to die, but the high-level intelligent undead do not want to start "eternal sleep" now.

Even if they have become undead, many high-level undead are still quite afraid of the word "death".

This is undoubtedly a great irony, but it is the most common reality in the realm of the dead right now.

In fact, the mages who have transformed themselves into lichs, in addition to some research freaks, are mostly those old mages who are afraid of the footsteps of death.

In fact, there was no undead in the continent of Elia, after all, the Lord of the Underworld did not need faith at all.

Although there are often persistent undead who constantly wander the battlefield or graveyard, the undead were not originally considered a race.

After all, the resurrected undead do not have the ability to reproduce, but the souls who are unwilling to enter the underworld under the influence of various obsessions can reappear on the earth through the power of the undead.

Some of these spirits are unyielding spirits, some are holy spirits, some are vengeful spirits, some are unwilling spirits, and some are even twisted spirits.

But in any case, those who can resist the guidance of death with their own will, or repel the soul reapers, who are responsible for harvesting souls, are the strongest in the world.

The undead formed by such a strong person, even if the strength has decreased significantly compared to the previous life, it is still a very powerful undead powerhouse.

Such a powerful force has naturally attracted the attention of major forces.

Whether it is the mages who only pursue knowledge without faith, or even take knowledge as a faith, or the nobles who yearn for immortality, they have all studied the undead.

However, compared to the ignorant nobles who did not do much under the noses of the Church of the Gods, which strictly forbade the study of souls, the veteran scholars of the Council of the Nine Rings Mages in the far north directly proposed necromancy as a new discipline.

And the devils took advantage of this opportunity.

Directly triggered the first undead natural disaster.

The cause of the incident is a rather clichéd story: in a small northern town, a young man and his childhood girlfriend had agreed to stay together for life. But under the power of the local noble young master, the girl was forcibly robbed into the noble manor, and finally committed suicide by poisoning. And the young man's house was also smashed and looted by the servants sent by the noble young master.

The young man left the town, and no one knew what happened to him.

It's just that when the young man returned to that small town, his heart was filled with the flames of revenge, and he was already a powerful legendary lich.

The town was overwhelmed by countless skeletons overnight.

And the lich who obtained the alchemy city core of the small city transformed that small Terran city core into the first alchemy undead city core.

The name of the lich has not been left by the chroniclers of history, and even the long-lived elves have never known the name of the lich. After the fall of that small city, all those who knew were no longer alive, and even the devil nobleman who was behind the scenes did not remember the name of his little chess piece.

But the name of the lich's girlfriend remained, as evidenced by the name of the first city of the dead, the first city of the dead: the city of Amya, and thus left its name in history.

Until now, the city of Amya still towered over the Northlands, but it was an empty city.

The Church of the Gods was furious at this evil **, this was the first time that such an evil ** thing had happened in the slaughter of the undead, and the Dawn Church, which was already very dissatisfied with the undead, directly designated the undead as the enemy of the Holy Light. And the nobles of various countries are also panicked by this incident, after all, it is already the norm for nobles to oppress commoners, and it is not that there are no strong people who turn around and beat the nobles after becoming stronger, but this is the first time that this kind of thing has completely shaken the foundation of the empire, and the nobles with real power have felt deeply uneasy.

The nobles are not idiots, no matter how much they oppress the commoners, they actually understand that the existence of the commoners is the basis of their rule.

And in the face of the large number of civilians who continue to die under the attack of the undead, it is necessary for the church and the nobility to take action.

The church and the nobility hit it off, and both sides sent a large army to attack the city of Emia, but in front of the powerful lich, all the troops became the newly added undead troops.

The undead's terrifying ability to grow stronger and stronger shocked everyone.

And because of this, at the instigation of the devil, the mages who were unwilling to give up studying the school of the dead and the mages of other schools had infighting.

In this way, following the events of the gray dwarves, drow elves, demon-blooded orcs, terran heretics, etc., the nine-ring mages were also blackened by the devil, and the necromancer line was directly separated from the nine-ring mage council.

And it was at a time when the major forces were in turmoil that the demons invaded again.

As the Terran forces were pinned down by the undead, the dwarves were attacked by the gray dwarves, the elves were busy dealing with the drow elves, the mages were busy with civil strife, and the orcs were in a mess with the demon-blood orcs, and the demon invasion was an unprecedented success.

Until a devil nobleman entered the main plane as the commander of the demon race.

The Devil Grand Duke was behind the Lich Affair.

The nameless lich was indeed a genius of heaven, who had learned the truth from the soul of the noble young master from the humble necromancy textbook that he had originally obtained from the Devil's Grand Duke.

But the lich who lost his lover was not able to enter the demon realm, and he kept a painful guard over his lover's grave until the devil nobleman himself ran to the main plane.

The lich, who had been quietly staying in Emia City, finally left.

The undead legion poured out of the nest directly, heading straight in the direction of the devil nobleman.

And everywhere the undead legions passed, whether it was a Terran city or an orc town, it was all razed to the ground. Damaged by the powerful aura of the undead, the land became barren.

The terrible traces left on the earth have not faded to this day, and are known as the traces of natural disasters by the world.

In the end, the devil nobles took the initiative to meet the undead army from afar with the massive demon army under their command.

The devil nobleman, who has always looked down on the emerging undead forces and completely forgot that the other party is actually a lich "pawn" arranged by himself, suffered a complete defeat.

The low-level demons who were not afraid of death encountered the skeleton army that did not have the word death at all, and the situation was turned one side.

The undead legion under the command of the lich is quite rude, and there are no vampires, death knights, banshees, or even corpse witches and other troops, but it is relying on a larger number of skeletons, zombies and ghosts than low-level demons to push a huge number of demon troops.

When the demons and demons who died in battle turned into newborn skeletons, zombies, and ghosts, the demon army that had been marching all the way finally collapsed completely.

The proud Archduke of the Devil was captured by the Lich, and his head was transformed into a scepter in the hands of the Lich. And the soul of the devil nobleman, after being played with by the lich to the point of collapse, was sealed into a short sword made from the body of the devil archduke.

It was an eternal torment for the Devil's Grand Duke, whose soul was endlessly tormented day and night in the dagger, and whose soul was constantly wailing.

In that great battle, the demon clan suffered an unprecedented fiasco, and its losses were unprecedented. This led directly to the removal of the Devil's Grand Duke from the Devil's list.

The Devil's Grand Duke, who was counterattacked by the chess pieces he created and fell, was a laughing stock among the devils for a long time.

But no one knows what kind of mentality the devils have to discuss this unfortunate bastard.

And after a long time, the devil archduke was forgotten by the devils. After all, the devils only appreciate the winners, and the losers, there is no need to understand.

The nameless lich who quelled the plague with the power of the undead is revered as the first Emperor of the Dead, who disappeared after his successful revenge, and disappeared without a trace along with the bones of his lover.

Legend has it that he eventually made it to the underworld, but in any case, he never appeared on the main plane again.

The strength of the undead faction has caused taboos among major forces, and the mages of the undead school have been jointly suppressed by forces including mages, churches, and nobles.

It is said that even the devils and demons have secretly played a black hand in it, after all, the strength of the Devil Grand Duke and his legions is not weak, but they fell in front of the army of the undead.

After unsuccessfully attempting to establish the Undead Realm by launching the Second Undead Scourge based on the Misty Swamp and attacking all the forces, the Third Undead Emperor finally established the Undead Nation of Dimons in the southeast corner of the continent.

The current undead family is the most complex force, and almost all races can be seen on the territory of the undead.

The current Council of the Dead is composed of four major forces, with the Lich Wells as the leader of the necromancer, composed of a large number of lichs, corpse witches, necromancers and a large number of skeletons, and is the strongest force in the undead family.

The Death Knights, led by Nicholas, the Bone Dragon Knight, are composed of powerful troops such as the Death Knight and the Bone Dragon, and their power is only below the Lichs.

The ghost lineage led by the banshee king Lyudmila, under the leadership of Lyudmila, the first human soul to devour the banshee and successfully become the newborn banshee king, the ghost, resentful spirit, banshee and other ghostly troops that have disappeared without a trace are not powerful, but they are definitely an existence that no force can rest assured;

The last is the faction led by the vampire prince Dracula and other blood princes, and they are at the bottom of the strength and are involved with the abomination, stitching corpses, mummies and other carrion troops. Although their strength is at the bottom, they are second only to the skeletons under the command of the Lich, and they are undoubtedly a pillar of the realm of the dead.

The escaped Grand Duke Josephine is the master of the blood prince line at the bottom of the power, but the vampire Grand Duke who left the realm of the dead has obviously been forgotten by the powerhouses of the realm of the undead.

But there are still people who have forgotten him, oh, it should be said that the undead are there.

"The current Yin Soul Fort is just like the Blood River Castle that has only built the lair of the sixth-order alchemy vampire, and most of the resources have been transferred by Josephine to build the Dark Sky. He didn't have many troops left. Melina, the whining banshee, recounted quietly. However, there is at least one eighth-order peak bone dragon in the Yin Soul Castle, and the bone dragon that protected Grand Duke Josephine from Kahada City has definitely not completely disintegrated! ”

Roger, who had been quietly listening to Melina's story, frowned, and rushed to his side as soon as he learned that the particular wailing banshee had regained consciousness.

Melina, the Wailing Banshee, did not resist Roger's questioning, and despite the natural aura of Roger's body making her uncomfortable, she told Roger everything she knew.

And Roger, who had learned a lot about the undead forces and information about Archduke Josephine from Melina, was now quite distressed.

On the one hand, the number of troops in the hands of Archduke Josephine is far greater than he expected; But on the other hand, the presence of the bone dragon also made it uncertain for him to defeat Archduke Josephine.

The prize of the Dawn Church is actually three light strategic magic scrolls, in addition to the undead slayer, there is also a fifth-level light strategic magic: reincarnation and rebirth! This scroll is undoubtedly the most valuable, but it can only be used once a day. Whereas, the Undead Slayer can only be used five times a day. The last volume is a level 1 of light strategy magic: Holy Light Healing, and this volume can be used as many times as many times a day.

For the Dawn Church, which uses light strategic magic as a major strategic skill, these magic scrolls are obviously not used by them, and they are actually intended to be used as gifts from the beginning.

However, very few Terran heroes will do the tasks of the church, and for the Terran knights who are nobles, it is too cheap.

Presumably, this is why the church will reward reincarnation and healing, and the undead slayer, a strategic magic scroll that can only be used for the undead, is obviously an extra giveaway.

The Dawn Church certainly didn't expect that this giveaway would come in handy first.

However, Roger, who does not have the strategic skill of light magic, has doubled the mana consumption when casting the magic on these scrolls, and today's three undead killers made Roger consume a full 72 points of strategic mana.

If there is no bonus of the Crown of Wisdom and the Vitality Fountain, the reincarnation and rebirth of 40 points of strategic magic will directly drain all Roger's reserves!
