Chapter Twenty-Four: Surprise Encounter (Asking for a Monthly Pass)

- Is it because I didn't write clearly enough ==, the last chapter of the last chapter to see the cross painted in the sky is the cardinal, En, slightly revised to make it clearer.

It's almost the end of the month, everyone has a new monthly ticket, and shamelessly begging ~

....................................................................................

In the necromantic realm, Lucien put away his thoughts and prepared to find a room to live in this extremely monotonous and quiet withered vine castle, and wait until Count Werther, Kaliliana, and Ivanovsky had calmed down and the pursuit began to relax before going out to meet Leo.

According to Lucian's estimate, it will take about three or four days, and the date of meeting between himself and Leo is a week later, which is very ample time, just enough to control this abnormal increase in mental power.

"Fortunately, after entering, there is a projection of the withered vine castle, and Mr. Rhein is here, otherwise according to Maskilin, the necromantic world is full of undead creatures, and the deeper you go, the more dangerous it becomes......"

Lucien is very glad that he did not encounter the necromancy, in addition to not being a battle maniac, but preferring to study and enjoy life quietly, but also because he is very self-aware, knowing that with his current strength, it is difficult to compete with those well-known undead creatures, such as demons, ghosts, mummies, death knights, etc., so it is best not to run into them without encountering necromancy, who knows if they will summon each other and come to a lot.

Just as he was about to step on the gray and gloomy staircase, the whole withered vine castle suddenly shook, like a fishing boat on the sea that had encountered a storm and stormy seas.

Then the castle tore apart, split into countless shadows and slid into the distance, and disappeared in the blink of an eye.

The whole process was far faster than Lucian's reaction, and he didn't even have time to activate the last "Powerful Flame Shield".

Lucien, who was suddenly exposed to the barren wilderness, felt the stagnation like a solidified breath of the necromantic realm, and said in his heart a little dazedly, "What's going on?"

The pale white tear mark on the left hand is highlighted. Lucien immediately felt that there was a fresh breeze surrounding him, and his spiritual power and blood power suppressed by the strange death and monotonous and depressing environment of the necromantic realm were greatly restored, just like in the summer heat. A refreshing cool breeze blew.

"The blessing of the little girl is really good in this environment. Lucien thought happily as he looked around and saw that it was a black, white and gray area similar to the mines west of the city of Ural, and he muttered to himself in confusion. "This is the reflection of the normal main material world......

According to Lucian's understanding, although the necromantic realm is a chaotic and mixed reflection of the non-intelligent things of the main material world, it is often a building that is reflected from the west of the city to the north of the city. But this kind of staggered and mixed seems to have a certain limit, probably limited to a city or a small town. Therefore, the projection of entering the necromantic realm from the crack in the mine but directly reaching the withered vine castle in Ural City has always made Lucien wonder: "This confusion and deviation are too big, right?"

Now witnessing the withered vine castle disintegrating and sliding away on its own, Lucien finally realized: "Probably for some reason, Mr. Rhine moved the withered vine castle together when projecting, and waited until he disappeared. The castle was quickly restored to its original position due to the repulsion of the necromantic realm. ”

"But it's good that the remnants of Ivanovsky, which are difficult to completely erase in the withered vine castle, will really disappear, and there is no need to worry about being discovered...... Not good!"

Lucien suddenly realized, came to his senses, and immediately ran towards the gap in the necromantic realm not far away.

Since Ivanovsky knows the necromantic realm. There is a gap leading to the Necromantic Realm in the depths of the Knowing Dao Mine, so what about his accomplices? For example, what about that high-level magician Nikonov who knows the Necromantic Realm? If he knew it, he probably chose to enter the Necromantic Realm for a while, and after reaching the bottom of the mine, wouldn't the traces of his battle with Ivanovsky that remain there clearly tell him that there was an enemy here! The secret of the Necromantic Realm may have been exposed!

And the exposure of this secret, for Nikonov, for Ivanovsky's companions, for the big people behind Ivanovsky, is a more serious change than the destruction of Count Werther's affairs, and they will definitely not let go of anyone who may know the secrets of the necromantic realm, which will lead to a frenzied hunt for themselves - whether it is Rhine's emphasis or Lucian's own cognition, there is no doubt that this point points.

If Nikonov or others detect that they are hiding in the Necromantic Realm, they will definitely search the vicinity carefully, and at the same time set up a sensor trap at the exit, then they will either find themselves in a more dangerous situation than the previous Withered Castle, or they can only hide in the rest of the Necromantic Realm and look for another exit gap, but in this way, they are likely to encounter powerful high-level undead creatures!

"You have to deal with the traces at the bottom of the cavern before anyone else arrives! ”

Before Lucien stepped into the gap, he carefully sensed the outside environment through the Corona of the Sun, and only after confirming that no one was there did he activate the last "Powerful Flame Shield" of the day, passed through the thick gloomy "curtain", and returned to the bottom of the mine.

Due to the absence of wind, the dark yellow-green "poisonous mist" has not completely dissipated, corroding the rocks and poisoning insects, rats, etc.

As soon as his spirit moved, Lucian, whose soul was much stronger, activated the "Dispel Smoke" more easily, and the cast buffer was slightly shorter than before.

After "dispelling the smoke" again and again, the "poisonous mist of Gaston" finally disappeared, and Lucien began to methodically dispose of the remains of rats and bugs, dispose of the mist-corroded mine walls, and dispose of all traces of battle.

Although Ivanovsky's companions could arrive at any time, Lucien was very calm, not in a hurry, not panicked, and it took less than ten minutes to clean up the traces with the help of a few special spells. As long as the other party does not check carefully, it will be difficult to detect, especially the more time passes, the less likely it is to be detected clues.

After doing all this, Lucien took another closer look, and then cast an invisibility spell to prepare to leave the place.

Just after walking a few steps, on the road to the bottom of the mine, Nikonov's breath suddenly appeared, which made Lucian startled: "He's really here!"

Perhaps it was the belief that there was no one else at the bottom of the mine. Perhaps because he was fully confident in his own strength, Nikonov showed no signs of concealing his aura, which made Lucien aware of it a lot of time in advance. At the same time, due to the fact that Lucian was already invisible and masked and far away, Nikonov was unable to detect him in time.

"Where are you hiding?" Lucien quickly looked left and right. The mental force field was withdrawn, so as not to be sensed by Nikonov, "You can no longer rely on invisibility, remote corners and emotional control like hiding from Ivanovsky before." This is a high-level magician!"

The spiritual force field of a high-level mage is like a substance, and it can clearly sense every creature in a small area, and at the bottom of such a narrow mine, unless you use the four-ring magic "High Invisibility", there is a possibility of concealment.

After looking around and making sure there was no other way to escape, Lucien decisively re-entered the Necromantic Realm.

............

Black, white, and gray are eternal, and clumps of shrubs are frozen to the ground without any wobble. Lucien dragged out a shallow afterimage and ran wildly towards the plains below, where the undead were most likely to be encountered.

Instead of hiding from the necromancers this time, Lucien went specifically to find them, at the same time. The crystal ball flies, and the Muskeline Star surrounds it, and they collide in pairs, annihilating together, making Lucien a little "lucky".

Lucian, who never believed in fate, did his best and never bowed his knees before the so-called fate! Even if he died, he must be worthy of himself!

In the chaotic necromantic realm, the mountain is not high, and in a short time Lucien reached the plain and saw groups of ghouls, their rotting skin and muscles, and their eyes that were about to fall out, so "kind and lovely".

If he couldn't find them, Lucien would have to take refuge in a rocky spot near the low hills!

The ghouls smelled the breath of the creatures, and they became restless, and they were about to pounce on Lucien.

At this time, Lucien recited a silent incantation, and his breath immediately changed, and the rich aura of death and decay suddenly surrounded, and at the same time, his body began to change, and a mass of rotten flesh appeared, and he soon became a decaying and rotting ghoul.

The Magic Council's unique two-ring magic "Shapeshifting Undead"!

This is a new magic that combines the two ancient inheritance magics of "Immortal Veil" and "Camouflage Undead Creatures", and has their own characteristics, one is the entanglement of death energy, and the other is the appearance of undead creatures.

The ghouls, who had little intelligence, all stopped, seemed to look around a little "dazedly", and finally accepted the fact that there was one more "companion".

The ghoul leader howled silently, beckoning Lucien to come over and line up.

Not long after blending into the aimless wandering procession of ghouls, Lucien saw a figure flying in the gray sky, wearing a black Magic Empire robe, gloomy and deep, it was Nikonov.

Nikonov had no interest in the ghouls that could be found everywhere in the necromantic realm, and he flew by without even looking at them, let alone carefully scanning these "idiot" guys with a mental force field.

After Nikonov left, Lucian breathed a long sigh of relief: "It seems that Nikonov doesn't think that outsiders may enter the bottom of the mine at all, after all, it is a place cursed by demons, so at most the mental force field is checked hastily and comes in." ”

Lucian's judgment was based on the fact that if Nikonov had noticed anything wrong, he would have carefully searched the area of the necromantic realm near the rift, rather than flying through it so easily.

As a precaution, Lucien continued to wander with the ghouls, and at this moment, a figure flew in the sky in the other direction, wearing a large black robe, with countless intricate and gorgeous patterns painted on it, exuding a complete necromantic aura!

The figure also ignored the low-level undead ghouls below, and quickly flew over the place.

"The direction seems to be the direction in which Nikonov flew...... This is a high-level intelligent undead?" Lucien thought to himself, confused.

After a while, Lucien the "Ghoul" began to get bored and planned to take the opportunity to leave through the gap and hide elsewhere, but at this moment, a figure flew in the direction of the gap again.

"This?!" Lucien watched in amazement as the figure disappeared into the sky where Nikonov had disappeared, and countless waves rolled in his heart, because he was wearing a cardinal's robe!

Although it is thoroughly black in the Necromantic Realm, it is undoubtedly the appearance of a cardinal's robe! )
