Chapter 36. Erwin's plan

[Soul Chasing Ritual] This thing can be said to be an extremely painful spell, and the necromancers who played guest roles as gravediggers back then felt this kind of egg pain, and Erwin now feels it just as clearly.

From the never-ending pursuit of necromancers, day and night, even the same necromancer can't stand it, let alone Erwin, a living human.

It doesn't get tired or tired, and wherever Erwin goes, the necromancer chases it there.

Even if Elwyn used the teleportation magic circle to leave, the necromancer would follow him closely, leaving him without even a respite.

The thought of this miserable life that never saw the light of day made Erwin feel like he was killed by a headbutt. Therefore, even at great risk, Erwin must find an opportunity to kill the necromancer.

Therefore, after knowing the [Soul Chasing Ritual], Erwin has been thinking about this plan - among them, coming to Sunset Fortress is only the first step in the plan, finding the gold room and using [Moore's Meeting Gift] to get the equipment is the second step, and the third step is to use the familiar terrain to add Susan's amazing archery skills.

Erwin was so sure that he would be able to kill the necromancer, and of course, the danger of being counter-killed was high, but he had to take the risk.

"You...... If you want to kill the necromancer, it's just the two of us? ”

After learning of Erwin's plan, Susan was silent, she had already seen the power of the necromancer on the beach next to the cold stone river, and the scene of the gray dove mercenary group being almost wiped out was still vivid, Erwin actually said that only two people could kill the necromancer.

If it weren't for the trust she had built along the way and seen Erwin's abilities, Susan would have almost thought the guy was going crazy.

"Yes, it's just the two of us, I'm sure! If we don't kill the necromancer, this guy will chase us to the ends of the earth, kill it forever, and avenge your companions. ”

Time was of the essence, the skeleton soldiers would catch up at any moment, and Erwin had no time to convince Susan, at this point, she had to agree if she didn't agree, and if she wanted to survive, she had to act with Erwin.

Erwin gave a brief account of his plan, and Susan listened in silence, waiting until Erwin had finished speaking, and then she looked up at him.

"Why didn't you sue me before?" Susan asked in a low voice.

Erwin was immediately stunned, he didn't tell Susan, naturally he was worried that she would not agree to this extremely risky matter, and if something happened in the middle, the plan would most likely not be implemented.

Susan seemed to anticipate Erwin's silence, and she turned around and said in a voice that only two people could hear: "Maybe the moment you pulled me away from the riverbank, the fate of the two of us was bound together, and I ...... I don't think it's a bad thing, I just hope that if you have any plans in the future, you can tell me in advance. ”

After saying that, without waiting for Elwyn to answer, Susan ran into the corridor that Erwin had pointed out to her.

Watching Susan's back quickly disappear into the darkness, Erwin couldn't help but reach out and rub his eyebrows, this was his habit, and he couldn't help but do it every time he had a headache.

He closed his eyes and took a few deep breaths, and when he opened them again, there was only determination and confidence in his eyes, and all distractions had been put aside in his mind, and he went through the plan in his mind from beginning to end, and after making sure that nothing was missing, he turned and rushed into another hallway.

Shortly after the two separated, dense footsteps sounded again in the darkness, and a dozen skeletal soldiers appeared in the hallway embracing a man in a black cloak.

The necromancer stopped at the fork in the road that led to both directions, and knew that the tomb owner, who was supposed to be dead, left the corridor to the left, and within the range of its caster, the remaining gravedigger fled to the corridor to the right.

"Separate and run for your life? Childish moves. ”

The necromancer snorted coldly in his heart, for it, the main purpose is to bring back the owner of the ancient tomb, as for the gravediggers, they only need to kill them all, which is more important, it goes without saying.

It raised its hand and pointed, and immediately four skeleton soldiers rushed into the corridor on the right, while it itself chased after the corridor on the left with the remaining nearly ten skeleton soldiers

Without Erwin's guidance, Susan would undoubtedly have advanced much more slowly, and this should have been her first time acting alone in the Shadow Mountains, so she had to be cautious.

Erwin had warned Susan that the corridors of the Hall were safe areas, but almost all the rooms here were mortally dangerous except for Moore's Gold Vault.

So when Susan ran down the hallway, she would stay away from the rooms on either side, and she would slow down her footsteps while silently counting in her mind.

"Fifty-Five ......"

"Seventy-Eight ......"

"One Hundred and One"

When Susan counted to one hundred and thirteen, she came to the first fork in the road, and as Elwin had instructed, she chose to turn to the left. And at this moment, a clear running sound finally sounded behind him.

Susan gripped her winged bow, the armor-piercing arrow that hadn't been shot was still on the bowstring, and she turned her head to look behind her as she ran, and at the end of her vision there were eight turquoise dots of light that danced up and down in the darkness with a sound.

"Only four?"

Susan muttered something in her heart, she remembered that Erwin said that there would not be many skeleton soldiers who came to chase her, and now it seems that he was right, there are really not many.

The necromancer didn't pay much attention to Susan at all, and it was clearly enough to use four skeleton soldiers to hunt down an archer who couldn't even reach the elite warriors.

But this will end up being the necromancer's first and most fatal mistake!

The skeleton soldier was not slow, and was rapidly reducing the distance between him and Susan - of course, this was also the result of Susan's deliberate actions.

According to Erwin's plan, Susan can't completely kill the skeleton soldiers chasing her, she needs to leave at least one chasing her, and then escape from the necromancer's perception range, and then quickly get rid of or kill the pursuing skeleton soldiers, and then use [Shadow Cloak] to release the shadow spell and return to the third fork in the left corner of the corridor.

Susan silently thought back to what Elwyn had told herself, and she needed to do it when she had counted to five hundred in her mind.

It's a difficult challenge, but Susan is confident that it will be done, and she doesn't want Erwin to think that she is a woman who has to rely on his protection to survive.

The skeletal soldier behind him approached quickly, and Susan barely needed to aim, and fired a backhand arrow.

The attack power of the winged bow is reflected at this time, Susan only opened half a bow, and the armor-piercing arrow roared out, which was a few points faster than the ordinary infantry longbow full bow shooting.

The heavy armor-piercing arrow pierced the skull of the skeleton soldier chasing after him, and then shot the third skeleton soldier behind him with great power, knocking its skull out.

The two skeleton soldiers who were hit by the arrows extinguished the soul fire almost at the same time, and the pitch-black skeletons also scattered to the ground, and the steel shields and iron swords fell to the ground with a few clatters, forming a large echo in the dead corridor.

Susan was also taken aback by the combined power of the winged bow and armor-piercing arrow, but she was more surprised that the more powerful it was, the more likely it was that Elwin's plan would succeed.

There were only two skeleton soldiers left, and Susan had no intention of continuing to shoot, but maintained the same degree as the skeleton soldiers, silently reciting the numbers in her mind, and ran into the depths of the hallway.

In the other corridor, Erwin was also running at a low speed, and behind him, the skeleton soldiers who had caught up could already be seen.

Hearing the dense footsteps behind him, Erwin knew he had guessed correctly.

Because of the [Soul Chasing Ritual], the necromancer will definitely regard his "remains" who signed the [Soul Contract] before his death as his main purpose.

Once Erwin and Susan are separated, the necromancer will definitely tip the scales in Erwin's favor - killing the gravedigger is just incidental, and recovering the "remains" is the main purpose of the [Soul Chasing Ritual] spell.

And when the necromancer focuses on Erwin, then his plan is almost half the battle.

A fork in the road appeared in front of him, and Erwin didn't think about it, so he chose to turn right. He and Susan did separate to the left and right at first, but both of them chose to turn in opposite directions when they encountered a fork in the road, and the result of this was that the two dared to separate at first, but now they were approaching each other.

Like two curved arcs, when the two finally meet, that meeting point is where Erwin implements the final step of his plan.

The skeleton soldiers behind him were getting closer and closer, and Erwin's heartbeat began to gradually increase, but his pace began to slow down, and when the third fork appeared, the skeleton soldiers behind him had already chased Erwin to the point where he was less than five or six meters.

After turning the third fork to the right, a light suddenly appeared in front of the hallway, which magnified rapidly in the darkness with Erwin's footsteps, and as he rushed in, a wide courtyard appeared in front of him.

This courtyard is similar to what I saw before, the huge yard is full of all kinds of ornamental plants and flowers, the only difference is that there is not a single towering tree planted here, so the stone slabs on the ground of the courtyard are still intact, and have not been completely destroyed by the thick roots like other places.
