Volume 3 Chapter 8 Chapter 8
The skeleton soldiers are similar to the kind summoned by Depp at the beginning, ordinary attacks can only shatter bones, but they cannot completely destroy them, warriors and teenagers attack repeatedly, but no matter how they are destroyed, the skeleton soldiers will slowly repair their bodies and continue to rush over, even Rod's holy sword has no effect.
"Run!" Saiya's voice came from above them. A steady landing, Saiya kicked the skeleton soldiers in front of him away, "Run up the mountain, I'll find a way to stop them!"
Without saying it again, the three of them smashed their bones all the way, running upwards, and seeing that they were already moving, Saiya made a small cut in her hand with a dagger, and she spat her own blood into the face of one of the skeletons, and then stepped back and took the injured finger in her mouth.
The skeleton soldier sensed the presence of blood and turned his attention to the bloody skeleton, and Saiya took the opportunity to leave.
Hopler and the boys didn't go far, they all waited for Saiya, and they were relieved to see her coming.
"Did you find anything when you fought that necromancer?" Hopler looked at Saiya and took out a bottle of healing potion from her body. ”
"There are some discoveries, but we need to find a place to settle down first, it's too easy for the necromancer to notice, and it would be a headache for him to harass us with skeletons so often. Saiya spread her hand, and Hopler uncorked the flask and poured some of the potion over her wound.
"There should be a house. Lott thought for a moment, "I remember that the mission intelligence said that there will be a professional team here to collect spices, so they will definitely use a stronghold in the mountains." ”
"Can't go there. Saiya directly shook her head and denied, "That kind of place, the necromancer also knows, there may be an ambush." ”
"Shall we camp then?" Rod suggested, "we don't have to stay too well, just rest a little, and our supplies won't last long." ”
"Camping should be possible, right?" asked Lott about the warrior and nightingale.
The two glanced at each other and nodded, the teenagers are indeed growing up very quickly, although they are still inexperienced in this situation, they are not flustered, and the proposed plan is also feasible.
"Let's move first, the mountain is so big, as long as we don't use magic and don't cause too much movement, the necromancer won't be so easy to spot us, and he won't have so much magic to make the whole mountain have skeleton soldiers. Hopler said as he led the group into the jungle on the side, the mountain path was too obvious, and they had to hide in the jungle to be at ease.
"And we can't knock down too many trees, although it looks like a forest, it's all an illusion, and you have to remember these dead trees when you touch them. Just pick up the wood from the ground for camping, and don't start a fire. Saiya made some additions to the plan.
Everyone cautiously walked through the jungle, the road was safe, no attack, the monsters in the mountains seemed to have been slaughtered by the necromancer, Hoppler picked a fairly empty place. Unable to see through the vision, he and Lott stood by while Rhodes and Saya went around looking for materials for camping, and they reluctantly set up a tent covered with dead leaves, which seemed quite hidden.
When it was almost noon, everyone sat in the tent covered with dead leaves and began the formal exchange of information.
"It's strange, that necromancer has already managed to absorb the magic, why doesn't he run, does he have to hunt us down?" asked Rhodes, who was the first to speak when he sat down.
"And what does he want so much magic for? You can't strengthen yourself for a long time just by absorbing mana, right?" Lott asked the second question.
"I'll answer Lot's, Rhodes' you will. Hopler looked at Saiya, and Nightingale nodded, "These people don't use magic to enhance themselves, but to do some kind of magic for them."
Ritual energy supply. As for the necromancer's rituals, I don't know. ”
"Are there serious consequences for this act of draining the magic of the leylines?" Rhodes asked.
Hopler scratched his head, "I asked Depp this question before, and at that time he said that the practice of absorbing the magic power of the leylines will not completely change the leylines, and the magic power will slowly recover over time, but this long period of forbidden magic will still cause a lot of trouble." So the Church of the Word prohibits this kind of behavior. Morod Academy, Secret Words, and those court mages, wandering mages, they dare not violate the church's prohibition. But Yazlar is not afraid, they are elusive, once sucked the magic of the leylines in a vain attempt to open the gates of the worlds, for which a long time ago it also caused a war of the undead, and then the archmage organized a mage alliance to hunt them down for a period of time, and since then they have not had much obvious activity, and it is a coincidence that the archmage has disappeared recently, and they have reappeared now. ”
"Lord Mosas is missing?" Lott was startled when he heard this, "Who can take the Grand Magister..."Regarding Mosas, Father Palgus gave a detailed introduction and spoke highly of her, and the teenagers admired her very much.
"I don't know," Hopler shook his head, "That's not the point now, will we, Sayah?" the warrior nudged her, "What do you say over there, in fact, I also want to ask, why doesn't he leave?
"Mistress Modrella will come to our rescue?" Lott was overjoyed when he heard the second half of Hopler's words, "Aren't we saved?"
"When they arrived, we were all cold, and they could only rely on two legs or horses to come to the forbidden area, and the mountain was very slow, so they couldn't save us. Saiya directly dismissed this possibility.
"So how did we get here?" Lott didn't understand.
"Bad luck, the concentration of mana is just enough, and when we have to go back, it will be a little bit closer, and if we can't teleport in reverse, they won't be able to teleport in the forward direction. Saiya sighed.
Lott looked disappointed, lowered his head and closed his eyes, although the boy was very strong, but there was no doubt that he could not be completely calm in this situation, especially when hope and disappointment alternated.
In the current situation, the negative mood is unavoidable, and Saiya quickly changed the topic, "Let's go back to that question, why didn't the necromancer leave?"
"yes," Hopler nodded, "Why?"
"He can't go. Saiya said word by word.
"Why can't you go?" the teenagers were curious.
"Brandt is worthy of Brandt, he gave the necromancer a silent curse, this silent curse is a technique that the thief is good at, it is a gift from Farmera, not magic, so he doesn't need magic, he will limit the magician's long chanting, as you can see, the necromancer can only perform short-byte chanting magic and no chanting magic. ”
"What a trick!" Rod exclaimed.
"If it's a mage at the magister level, it can't be limited, a necromancer like him can still do it, but because he has absorbed a lot of magic power, he only needs a short byte chant for many magic chantings now, and the greater impact is teleportation. Thinking of Brandt Sayya's expression was relatively poor, thinking that she had complained that it was not Liz who won the sacrifice day, but now that the two of them are gone, Saiya has mixed feelings.
"If he does this, the necromancer won't be able to leave, and he won't dare to act rashly, is this to let Modryla or the kingdom arrest him?"
"Mr. Brandt," the boys muttered.
"According to what the necromancer said, Brant has already destroyed one of his bodies, and I have destroyed one, and necromancy also has a limit, he is the most
More can only be converted once. Frequent body changes are also a great burden on him. Saiya tried to be as optimistic as possible, "Thieves have an advantage over mages, and we have a good chance of winning. As soon as he dies and the magic he absorbs is released, we can teleport. ”
"He's absorbed the magic of the entire leyline, so it's not easy for you to deal with him. Hopler questioned worriedly.
"I'm no ordinary thief, don't forget I'm a nightingale!" Saya quietly nudged Hopler and winked at him.
"That's right," Hopler understood what the nightingale meant, and he directly changed his words, "I wasted his body just now, what's so difficult to do it again." He patted the two teenagers, "Cheer up, we'll be able to get out." ”
Lott looked at the pretentious warriors and thieves and shook his head, "You two don't have to deliberately encourage us so much, we were taught by you, and we can see the current situation clearly." ”
Rod agreed, he touched his saber "If you encounter it again, he will definitely be on guard, it's not so easy for Saiya to repeat the old tricks, and we don't know what tricks he has, and our hole cards are gone, and the intelligence is not equal." ”
"Who said we don't have hole cards?" Hopler flicked Rod's head, "Don't be so pessimistic, he's not a magister, as long as you're ready, it's not that difficult to defeat him, don't forget that you're not the same you used to be!"
Rod covered his head in pain, "That's the same..."
"And what are we going to do now?" Lott looked at Saiya and Hopler.
"You are responsible for conserving your strength, saving as much food and water as possible, and I will go outside to investigate, and the key to victory or defeat now lies in which of us and the greedy dead finds each other first. As long as we can ambush him beforehand, the only thing that awaits him is death. Saiya said this with confidence.
"What if we can't find each other?" the teenagers are still pessimistic, but they can't force them, the current situation is not optimistic, they are still inexperienced, and it is good to be able to do this.
"Don't worry, I can still pierce the hole, I can bring food in from the outside, although there is a certain risk, but as long as we don't get found by him, we won't lose!" Saya patted them on the shoulder and stood up.
Hearing this, the teenagers' faces were much better, "I can do it like this!" After being explained what a piercing is, they did rekindle some hope.
Outside the tent, Hopler stopped Saiya, "Fake, huh?" and didn't say much, the warrior knew that Nightingale understood.
"Of course, the necromancer is not stupid, there are already a lot of enchantments around me, I can't get out so easily, of course, if I protect myself, it's still fine. The nightingale laughed miserably.
"But your mission is here, and what will you do if everything turns out for the worst?" Hopler had not had much contact with the Nightingale in the past, and he was indeed curious about it.
"What else can I do to bury Rhodes?" said Saiya with an understatement, "The betrayal mission awaits me far more painful than death, will you do something to betray Hoyle, the god of war?" she squinted at the warrior.
Although the tone was not too revealing, the warrior could feel that Nightingale was angry, and the sentence just now was tantamount to questioning her steadfastness in her faith, "I'm sorry." Hoppler apologized in time, even if it was a girl far younger than himself, and Hoppler was unequivocal about the incident.
Getting an apology, Nightingale smiled, "I'm going to scout, you have to protect them." ”
"Be careful not to be caught by him. ”
"Who am you, I'm Palmera's nightingale!" said Saiya, who disappeared into the jungle.
