Chapter 52: Blessings for the Thirsty
"Mora, Bonn, you mean you want to be branded, don't you?"
Lin Yuan sat on a soft big chair, holding his cheeks, and looked at the two subordinates kneeling in front of him. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 info
Mora Dinaire and Bonn Connaught, who had previously been ordered by Lin Yuan to drive the undead forces to the two Oath-Takers in the West.
In the Netherworld Gate incident, they were defeated by the Phantom Seed that suddenly appeared, and after being severely injured, they retreated in embarrassment, and now they have recovered all their injuries under Lin Yuan's healing.
After this, they were once again ordered by Lin Yuan, and with more undead in their hands than before, they returned to the West to continue their mission.
Then today, Mora and the others suddenly called Lin Yuan with the Book of the Dead and asked for his arrival.
Under Lin Yuan's questioning, Mora and the others said their request.
They want to get the power of the brand, they want to get the magic.
"I shouldn't have told you about the brand, where did you two hear that?"
Lin Yuan began to brand the suitable, but it was just a matter of the past few days, and Mora and Bonn, who were in the West, should not know this news.
Mora named the source.
"It was the Chief Staff who told us, and he said that if we wished, we could ask you to give us this strength. ”
"Ahh
The rat-man Yana created by Lin Yuan was in the position of a staff officer, and often communicated with the administrators of each city-state, so it was not surprising that Mora and the others got news from Yana.
Lin Yuan had never intended to hide the matter of the sacrificial brand, and it was only when the rat man Yana knew this that he would tell Mora and the others the news.
And they quickly contacted Lin Yuan, just as Yana expected.
Looking at the eyes of the two subordinates, Lin Yuan immediately understood.
Lin Yuan knew what his staff officer wanted to do, and he wanted to speed up the pace of the plan.
"Mora, Bonn, even if you are willing to sacrifice your life in exchange for the power of magic, it is a pity that you are not suitable for the brander, and if you do it reluctantly, there is only a dead end. ”
Lin Yuan saw that the expressions of the two subordinates quickly dimmed, and his disappointment was fully revealed.
So, he continued in a slow tone.
"However, I do have different powers to give you, and I have another way, a way that works only for you, depending on the consciousness you have. ”
“...... Please tell us, sir!"
Mora and Bonn looked at each other, then covered their heads without hesitation.
"Actually, I'm very optimistic about you, you are rare good people. ”
Lin Yuan looked at the two of them who threw themselves to the ground, and showed a happy smile.
"Whether it's your performance in Coal City, your attitude towards refugees, and the last time the Phantom Seed appeared, if it wasn't for you resisting the Phantom Seed, so many residents in the city would not have survived, you could have gone first, but you chose the queen of the palace, this is the reason why I didn't punish you for losing all the undead, you are really good people." ”
Lin Yuan looked at his subordinates whose faces changed one after another, and there was a rare hesitation.
"So, I'm not going to give you power, because it would make you lose your human identity, and I don't want to see it. ”
Mora Cheng raised his head in fear, plucking up the courage to ask Lin Yuan the reason.
He knew he wouldn't hear any good answers, but in order to pursue the power to protect himself and others, he had to seize every opportunity.
"My lord, dare to ask...... What is the right power for us?"
"Undead, I can transform you into undead, into self-owned, true undead, high-ranking individuals who are completely different from other puppet-like undead. ”
Hearing this, Mora felt a chill all over her body.
"By combining with the Book of the Dead, you will be able to gain great power, and although I have other ways to give power, unfortunately, this is the only method that works for you. ”
Lin Yuan said: "You don't need to force yourself, you can just continue to do your work, I know that because of the death of your companions, you want to gain stronger power, but can you do such a sacrifice?
Mora and Bonn couldn't make a sound, and it was absolutely intellectually impossible for them to drive the undead and know what kind of existence the undead were, and to ask them to take the initiative to become such a thing.
However, in their hearts, there is another voice that should tell them that this is the price of gaining power, and that if you sacrifice a little something, you can gain great power.
Looking at the two Mora in the battle between heaven and man, Lin Yuan asked them one last question.
"So, tell me, what was your decision?"
*
Mora calmly watched as her palms turned into bones.
This flesh-and-blood body, from the perspective of human beings, can only be described as horror and horror.
Mora's current body has no flesh, no internal organs, not even a brain, only his self-consciousness and the soul of his origin, which resides in the carrier made of bones.
He didn't feel anything wrong, he was quite satisfied with his body now, after becoming what he is now, he is no longer affected by his physical body, and everything can be analyzed and dealt with objectively, in the words of his master Lin Yuan, that is, his rationality is higher than human nature, and everything can be viewed equally and calmly.
Vast amounts of magic flowed through the seemingly fragile bones, and the power of the power brought about a sense of omnipotence, and Mora felt satisfied like never before.
It's a strange feeling that humans can't feel.
Mora became a high undead, the ruler of the undead, the Lich.
After a long night of work in the business room, Mora didn't feel the slightest tiredness, the undead didn't need to rest, and he was able to work around the clock, much more efficiently than before.
Seeing that it was not too early, Mora put on several heavy dark blue coats in addition to the white bones, which were used to cover his body.
He doesn't mind letting others see his true colors, but he needs to take into account the feelings of others, and it is difficult for a living human to accept a white skeleton walking, so he has appropriately covered it up.
Pulling on the wide hood that almost covered her face, Mora opened the door to the office and was not surprised to see her friend standing guard.
His best friend, his best companion, became an inhuman being with him on that day.
Bonn Connaught became the commander of the undead, the Death Knight.
The Death Knight standing with his sword standing on his sword, wearing a heavy set of black full-body armor that obscured his true face, did not look as terrifying as a lich on the outside.
Bonn did not lose his body like his friend, his body turned dead white, transformed into a hard body that would not get tired, and would constantly emit a cold aura to affect the enemy.
The Death Knight is not as powerful as the Lich, but in hand-to-hand combat, he is more powerful than the Mage Lich, and he is a Guard warrior who specializes in protecting the Lich.
"Bonn, it's time, come and greet your master. ”
Mora, the Lich, who has no vocal cords, has a special bone structure that emits strange resonances and sounds.
The Death Knight Bonn nodded silently and followed his good friend to the hall and began calling out to their master.
"Praise be to our lord Arcana, Great Dominator, Supreme Creator, and all glory belongs to you, and your faithful servant, Mora Dinaire, awaits your arrival. ”
After Lin Yuan heard the servant's call, he descended in front of them.
"Very well, it looks like you're used to your new body. ”
Lin Yuan looked at the two people in front of him with satisfaction, their consciousness and soul completely fused with their new bodies, and they had become real undead.
"Then come with me, everything can move forward again. ”
Lin Yuan took them to Coal City and let the High Undead handle their first job.
In front of them, tens of thousands of corpses were piled up, all of which had been preserved when the city was destroyed.
"Turn all of them into usable undead, unlike me, who has limitations, you who have fused with the Book of the Dead and become a high-level undead, as long as you have magic power, as long as you have corpses, you can create undead without limits. ”
Lin Yuan gave orders to the Lich and the Death Knight.
"Assemble an army of the undead, and then attack the west, take all the land under my control, and take everything from me. ”
The Lich and the Death Knight knelt down together, then answered in unison.
"By the will of the Supreme Person, we will accomplish our mission!"
