Chapter Fifty-Six: The Necromancer's Meeting
Is this your own path in life, hahaha...... After listening to the apprentice's impassioned words, the old man burst out laughing
Master, do you think my ideals are ridiculous?
No, the master waved his hand, and the teacher didn't mean to make fun of you, but he was very happy
Owen was stunned
You've grown up
Master, you agree with me, Owen was a little excited
Don't get carried away and become a teacher, you don't agree with your ideals, you need to know whether you are on the right path or not, you need to walk it yourself to be sure
Do you mean to let me ......
Yes, this small valley can't trap you anymore, you have to go out to the wider world to pursue your life path, but...... The old man was in a good mood and turned to leave, and before that, should you eat something first, the ideal would not be fulfilled in a person who starved to death
At the same time, in the great hall deep in the underworld
On the throne of bones, a symbol of the absolute authority of the underworld, sits the true ruler of the underworld: the warden Boyos
On either side of the Throne of Bones stood twelve statues of gargoyles, and in front of the Throne of Bones was a large dark green fire plate, flanked by the Bloody Gardener Shank, the Grave Keeper Tygura, the Master of the Curse Raqi, the Soulbinder Vladimir, the Corpse Cleaner Griston, the Ghost Assassin Blair, the Plague Spreader Dahl Fursfi, and the Death Courier Latik Nightrain - eight of his men in two rows
It was clear that the rebellious necromancers were in a meeting to discuss something
It was Kassandrona before, and now even Malowe is on board, and even a real yàn body that escaped from our hands can't deal with what is the use of raising you bunch of waste, there is a roar from behind the black metal mask, I am angry, I want to kill you, you shit, one by one, and then use your bones to make a magic weapon
The eight necromancers were silent, they knew that their master's anger and series of failures had made the warden more and more anxious, that the plan had been carried out for centuries, and it was only a little bit of success, but they did not want so many twists and turns in the middle, not only the plan was blocked, but the soldiers were ruined - in the face of this situation, anyone would be angry, and they knew that this master, who was known for his ruthlessness, would indeed do what he said, and no one dared to speak
But before I kill you, I want to hear the reason for the failure, and Buyos's tone was a little calmer, he looked around at the men in front of him, and finally his eyes fell on the direct executor of the mission, the ghost assassin Blair, you say it first
At this time, Blair's hands and left leg were covered with a thick cast and wrapped in gauze, and he was standing in the queue with his head bowed on a cane, and Blair could not remember how he escaped from the black flames that destroyed the world with his hands and feet broken, and only knew that he had survived - it was enough to have this result, the necromancer would not use healing magic, and the injured could only be treated with traditional medicine, and Blair, who had broken limbs, had not recovered enough to stand for so long, but he could not be tired of half a minute, and the wrath of his master could bring him death at any time
This one...... Faced with his master's question, Blair was no longer a freelance assassin who went his own way, but a pawn of a powerful madman, and the failure of this mission had caused the warden to completely lose his former respect and trust in him, and he couldn't think of an answer, although he also had a good reason
Master: I think the main reason is that we didn't take into account the origin of the No. 464 real yàn body, and the grave keeper who stood side by side with the bloody florist Shank in the front row, Taigulai, preemptively answered for Blair, and the No. 464 real yàn body was the code name given to Owen by this group of necromancers, because Owen was the 464th person who passed the screening of the deathmatch and survived to become a real yàn product
Oh, I hope your reasoning satisfies me, and Buyos looks directly at Tecurai, whom he regards as one of his right and left hands, and has an invisible sense of oppression
Master, think about it, over the years, there are dozens of real yàn bodies that we have sent to implant demon blood, and there are dozens of real yàn bodies that are ten times stronger than No. 464 real yàn bodies, why can we only succeed in this thin 14-year-old boy, isn't it strange that Taigulai said this, he paused to observe the warden's reaction, and saw that the master did not interrupt himself, so he continued, of course, this does not mean anything, Blair's failure this time is because he did not expect that the soul of No. 464 real yàn body not only maintained a complete sense of self after leaving the body, but also could enter and exit the body freely, so that Blair's stunt completely failed- - Not only Blair, but also everyone here, including the host, probably did not expect such a thing
Blair cast a grateful glance at Tecurai, he didn't expect that the other party would actually play a round for him, otherwise even if the master did not kill him, a painful punishment would be inevitable
What does this mean about this, the bloody florist who stood to the left of Tecurai asked
It is highly likely that No. 464 is the body of the Nian Li Tai Gu Lai Dao
psychokinesis
Many people are unfamiliar with the long-lost ability of telekinesis, and Aisha, the ghost who guards the mysterious library, had a telekinesis before her death, I heard that there are many kinds of telekinesis, one of which can allow your soul to enter and exit the body freely, and remain self-aware after leaving the body - this is different from magic, master, you think about the sudden appearance of telekinesis that has been lost for thousands of years, this must be unusual
What's so strange about this, Shanke carried it again, it could be that the Oriental man taught him
Excuse me, Shank, have you fought with that Oriental man, and seen this man use telekinesis, Taigulai asked rhetorically
Shanke was speechless for a moment, Taigurai poked at his sore spot, and more than ten years ago, the Oriental couple stormed the hell, and the sea of flowers on the other side that Shanke was proud of and watered with blood was nothing, and he himself was defeated, and he almost lost his magic and cultivated for several years before he recovered--this was the biggest stain on Shanke's life, and Taigulai deliberately mentioned it, which made him extremely embarrassed
Among the Ten Heavenly Kings, Teclay is on a par with Shank in both status and strength, both of them are the leaders of the Ten Heavenly Kings, compared to the offensive bloody gardener Shanke, the nickname Tomb Keeper Teclay is more focused on defense, and the barrier he has laid down cannot even be broken by Buyos himself, and Teclay has always been responsible for protecting the safety of the entire Hell--the two are both companions and political enemies, and they are constantly fighting openly and secretly, Buyos saw that he did not stop him, and he felt that as long as his subordinates continued to fight with each other, his position would not be threatened
After a pause for a while, Shanke gradually calmed down his frustration, and he knew that he could not argue in this link, so he asked Taigurai another question: Even if the 464th body is really capable of telekinesis, our priority is to snatch back the 'gift of the Holy Spirit' from the hands of the Oriental, not to verify the origin of an unknown young man
This is not contradictory, Taigulai retorted: Judging from the situation of the last battle, the Oriental who has been hindering us has been extremely seriously injured in order to recover the No. 464 real yàn body from the complete demonization, plus he is very old, he should not live long, and when the Oriental dies, the No. 464 real yàn body is our biggest obstacle, and we must have enough information about the enemy in order to have an advantage in the future battle with the No. 464 real yàn body
Well, Buyos nodded in agreement, that's a good point, so what do you think, he asked the other six subordinates
In fact, even if she didn't say it, Buyos himself was very interested in Owen's origin, because Kassandrona found a very special magic item from Owen when she was using him as a real thing, she couldn't analyze what it was, and she didn't know what it was for, so she handed over this magic item to her master, Buyos, and recognized at a glance that the strange white spar was one of the ten star keys used by the Poseidon clan to summon demonsA single Star Key can't do anything, and secondly, it's more important than exploring the secrets of a real body to create a demon puppet
However, with a series of unexpected events, including the unexpected loss of two of his subordinates, Buyos deeply felt that the secret hidden in the young man's body could not be ignored, and if he did not gather enough information about this enemy, blindly doing things would only make things worse, and Buyos hid his true thoughts and asked his subordinates to discuss whether any of his subordinates were in the same way as him
In response to the master's question, the corpse cleaner Greston first responded: Master, I think it makes sense, we should go and check the origin of the No. 464 real yàn body
But the continent is too big, how can I find out that the Ma Lowe who picked him up is already dead, and even his soul has been burned clean, otherwise I can ask Ma Loway's soul through guò and directly find out where the No. 464 real yàn body is, and pick up the soul binding messenger Vladimir to take over
Curse Master Raqilu said: "It's not impossible, as long as I get a piece of human tissue from the No. 464 real yàn body, and apply a curse on the tissue, I should be able to trace who his parents are
In the event that his parents died, it was the plague spreader Dahl Fursfeld who raised the question
Several necromancers were in a rambling discussion, with only Blair and Latik Nightrain remaining silent, the failed Assassin trying to save his life, and the Banshee, as usual, not participating in any discussions
The master asked me to go, and when the discussion of the crowd was fruitless, Taigulai recommended himself, and I would definitely find out the secret of the 464th real yàn body
Forget it, Taigulaisan said coldly, although you are good at defense, probing is not your specialty, besides, if you leave the underworld, who will maintain the defensive barrier
Shank, are you so confident in your ability to investigate, just because of your few broken flowers, Tecurai is hungry
You......
Tecurai's taunt upset Shank, and he was about to retort when he heard his master say:
All right
The voice was not loud but full of intimidation, and the necromancers immediately quieted down, and the warden looked around through the black metal mask, and finally fixed on the corpse cleaner: Griston, your body has not yet begun to necromanize, if it is well hidden, it will not attract the attention of those hypocrites in the Holy Court of Light, and it is most appropriate for you to go to the mainland to conduct a secret investigation, although among the people present, there is still a person whose body has not begun to necromantize, but it is obvious that Blair is gorgeously ignored
Obeying the order, knowing that it was the master's own order, Gliston did not have any right to refuse
I remembered the warden's solemn instructions, no matter what means I used, and how much time I spent, I must find out the details of this young man
Got it
Well, there's one more detail first...... Buyos stopped suddenly, and the men who didn't see it for some reason were puzzled
I saw that Buyos suddenly pointed to a corner of the hall and shouted: Who is there?
Several bone spurs shot out from the Throne of Bones and swooped down on where Buyos was pointing......
Yes--
Owen suddenly woke up from his sleep
What kind of strange dream was this, he dreamed that he saw the warden of the underworld, Buyos, gathering a group of necromancers in a meeting, including the ghost assassin Blair and the curse master Raqilu whom he had seen - these guys seemed to be discussing some important topics, as if they were related to themselves, and to the master...... Finally, Owen dreamed that Buyos looked at him and yelled at him and attacked him
So Owen woke up.
