Early the next morning, the group set off again. Pen ~ fun ~ pavilion www.biquge.info
Evelyn didn't say much about Lin Ke and the others secretly running to grill fish to eat, but the female elf Didrite looked at Lin Ke with more disgust, and looked at the dark elf Estes with a little sadness.
Along the way, it didn't take too long for the distant mountains to gradually appear in everyone's sight, shallow and faint.
"Estes, you haven't shown us what the effect of Eagle Eye is," Lynco pointed to the mountains in the distance, "There is still a bit of mist, and the mountains in the distance seem gray to us, what do you think?"
Estes looked up at the distant mountains, his pupils fluttered, and then he frowned slightly, "To be honest, I may have seen something not very good." ”
Lin Ke was stunned, "What's not so good?"
"Skeletons, I see a large area of skeletons walking through the dry jungle," Estes grimacedly pointed to a point in the distant mountains, "probably the legendary skeleton soldiers." ”
"Skeletons?" Lin Ke snapped up, "Necromancer?!!"
Everyone looked at Evelyn, who was sitting at the front of the canoe.
"There is indeed an evil aura floating down the water, although shallow but continuous," Evelyn bent down and pointed her finger at the surface of the water, the cyan light flashed from her fingertips, and then a tiny black smoke rose from the water, "The area where these dark creatures live is too close to the water source, if they are allowed to continue their activities, the vegetation on both sides of the source of despair will be affected, and even the small animals that come here to drink will become tyrannical because of this......"
"So we're going to pass the word on to nearby tribes?" asked Linko.
"Of course it's not just that!" the female elf Didlet glanced at Linko, "As an elf, we have an obligation to maintain the stability of the elven forest, and we must not retreat in the face of those filthy dark creatures!"
Lin Ke rolled his eyes, "It's great, what if you're not someone's opponent at all?" It's a legendary necromancer, who knows if you will be separated by someone else's flesh and bones and turned into a high-level skeleton to attack the other elves who come to help?"
Didrite was speechless, and could only snort coldly in disdainful explanation.
"Didrite will send a message to the nearest leader tribe here, and then we'll have to lean over and take a look," Evelyn's face was serious, "Necromancers are different from other special professions, their strength lies in the fact that they can quickly assemble a large necromantic legion, and a steady stream of necromantic legions can trap anyone to death, which is the most troublesome existence, but that takes time." ”
"We're not sure if he's assembled a massive necromantic legion," Cher frowned, "and the necromancer itself isn't easy, I'm afraid. ”
"It's a curse," the old fox York suddenly spoke, "In addition to being able to build a huge army of necromancy, the most terrifying thing about necromancers is the curse, their curse can greatly weaken and limit the abilities of the opponent, if we are surrounded by the sea of necromancy and are limited in our ability to escape, the result is clear at a glance." ”
Lin Ji looked at York with a bright eye, "Curse, curse the curse of the mage?"
The old fox hesitated for a moment and said, "Yes, curse the mage's curse......"
"I think we do need to investigate there before the elven tribes arrive, and it would be wonderful to be able to kill a legendary necromancer," Linko's attitude took a 180-degree turn.
Didrite gave him an inexplicable look, "No longer afraid of the necromancer's terrifying reputation?"
"If I told you that we killed a lich, you wouldn't believe it, would you?" said Linko with a smile, "Nothing can make the brave humans retreat!"
Didrite pouted, "Shameless!"
The canoe moves forward at an extremely fast pace.
In addition to the hard work of the paddles, a reverse wind on the river has also become a huge help.
"Estes, what forms and how many skeletons do you see?" asked Evelyn without looking back.
Estes was stunned for a moment, according to the habits of the elves, the fallen elves are no longer worthy of their original name, it doesn't matter if Linko and the others still call his name, Evelyn and Didrite don't talk to him anymore, but even so he is already grateful, because they didn't drive him away.
And now, Evelyn called his name.
Raising his head and stretching out his hand to wipe his eyes, Estes looked into the distance with red eyes, "There are not many humanoid skeletons, more dry bones in various animal forms, the number is difficult to predict, because only some skeletons can be seen moving through the cracks in the withered branches, and there is another interesting thing, the lower part of the mountain has withered and ashes, but the top of the mountain is full of green." ”
"It's hard to explain without actually looking at it, but we can't rush over and try to find the boundaries of the necromancer's sphere of influence first, and then clean up the necromantic creatures from the edge little by little, if the necromantic legion has already been built, then gather some information from the other party and wait for support," Evelyn's voice was no longer as gentle as when talking to Linko, "If his necromantic army has not yet formed, then we must control him as soon as possible!"
All should be.
The canoe is speeding away, and the distant mountains are getting closer and closer.
The river has not changed much, but the vegetation on the river bank has shown obvious signs of withering, the trees have withered, the flowers and plants have withered, and a scene of decay seems to have dyed a touch of gray to the green elven forest from a distance.
The earth looked gray and lifeless.
"This is it, and if you go deeper down the river, you might alarm the other party, let's land," Evelyn waved her hand and everyone carefully controlled the canoe to land.
The canoe was too big to fit in the Space Ring, so Neil dragged it to the shore behind a giant tree and hid it.
"A necromancer walks through and will suck up all the life of the earth," Evelyn squatted on the ground and picked up a little black and gray clod of dirt, crushing it, the core of the clod was still brightly colored, "He hasn't been here for a long time, and with a large number of necromantic legions, he can't make it through the southern mountains to reach this place near the plains of the Elven Forest, which means that he shouldn't have enough time to form a complete necromantic legion." ”
"I'm not curious if he has a necromancer legion, no matter how powerful the necromancer and his necromancer are in the Elven Forest, they can't do whatever they want," Lin Ke looked in the direction of the river valley in surprise, "Could it be that this necromancer is here to seek death?
"Or is there something he has to rely on?" said York, the old fox, suddenly.
