Chapter 825: Escape
When the black flames dissipated and his vision returned, what Benjamin saw was that the mages had protected him inside, holding his bone staff aloft, and the white circle of light covered everyone.
He didn't even react for a moment.
"So...... Simple?"
He tried to move his limbs, to speak, to feel the feeling of being back in the world. was inexplicably frozen for more than ten hours, and although his body was not in the slightest, he was already mentally exhausted.
"Where's the simplicity, Dean, do you know how much effort it took us to research it?" said the mage next to him, pointing to the bone staff.
Benjamin rubbed his head when he heard this, still a little out of condition.
"You ...... What did you do?"
"It's a bit tricky to explain, but that's what we made out of the remains of those three intelligent undead. The mage said quickly, "We extracted the kind of energy that can incinerate the elements, and then found that this energy can be stored in their staffs, which is under the direct command of spiritual power. ”
Hearing this, Benjamin still felt incredible. He looked out of the aperture, and the bone dragon was guarding outside, its cold gaze falling on him, as if it were about to eat people.
A little bit of energy extracted from the lich's corpse could stop this kind of overlord-level undead, which he couldn't imagine.
Another mage added, "We'd love to use this energy against the undead. Inspired by healing magic, we added a variety of magical materials with powerful healing effects, as well as numerous light and dark elements, and finally succeeded in reversing that energy. ”
"Reversal?"
"Yes, although we don't know what happened, that undead energy was transformed into another completely unknown being. The mage excitedly explained, "This energy repels the entire undead world, and once released, it will form a completely new realm within three meters, and no undead will dare to approach." ”
Benjamin heard this, and showed a somewhat strange expression.
Reversing the energy?
He carefully felt the white light emitted by the bone staff, but strangely, he didn't feel anything special from the white light. The white light was very normal, and a somewhat unharmonious sense of familiarity came out of his heart.
This is......
"They have carved out a world of 'living' in the world of the dead. The system suddenly popped up and said, "It's kind of interesting...... Just a few mages have deceived the rules of the world in this way. ”
"You mean?"
"Do you really think that such a white light will be able to stop that bone dragon?" the system explained impatiently, "Actually, it is more than capable of rushing in, enduring that little backlash, and then killing you all." ”
"Then why didn't it do anything?"
"Because it's just a dead brain. The world of the living is disguised within the aperture, just like the world on the other side of the abyss rarely appears undead, and the rules do not allow it. As a deceased, it would never dare to cross the thunder pond by half a step. ”
Benjamin was stunned.
So...... Is this a trick?
Using the energy from the lich, he created a living world of its own, deceiving not only the bone dragon, but also the entire world of the undead. Even Benjamin, who was suppressed by the rules of the world of the undead and was fixed here motionless, was successfully rescued by them using similar deception.
In fact, it is very simple logic: living people can't enter the world of the dead, let alone make trouble in the heavenly palace here, and Benjamin was punished for breaking the rules in a high-profile manner. But now, Benjamin has "left" the world of the dead, so the rules of the world of the dead can't help him.
Benjamin felt a little amused at the thought of the fact that the Skeleton Spirits had been emphasizing the rules before, only to be staring at them from the outside.
"Why are you dumb all of a sudden?"
He opened his mouth with mental power, trying to say something to it. However, he immediately realized that he seemed to have lost contact with the Spirit of Bones, and could not reach the words.
"Its spiritual power has not been extended, how can you talk to it?" the system said speechlessly.
“...... All right. ”
Benjamin was a little sad. The rigidity of these undead creatures was beyond imagination, but unfortunately, he had planned to taunt the other party a few more words.
But also, death is dead, how can it not be rigid?
At this moment, several mages were already holding the aperture and began to move with Benjamin. Under the dark sky of the world of the undead, the aperture went all the way to the south, and it looked very dazzling, like a kiwi hidden in a row of eggs. And the bone dragon has been following behind the aperture without giving up.
Although he couldn't communicate and didn't know what the Bone Spirit was thinking now, Benjamin looked at the pair of fires in his eyes as if he could feel a gritted tooth and resentment from it.
It's really hateful!
"That's right...... This energy should be consumed, right?" Benjamin was inevitably a little uneasy when he was stared at like this, and suddenly asked.
"Yes. Leila nodded and said, "But we've refined a lot, and it should be enough to support us back to the human world." ”
"That's good. ”
Benjamin breathed a sigh of relief. He thought for a moment and asked, "What about Miles, how is he doing?"
"He never woke up. Master Thomson has already taken him back to the academy first, and we are worried about your condition, so we will come and rescue you after the results of our research. ”
When Benjamin heard this, he also nodded: "Thanks to you......"
Thinking about the beginning, when a few mages were doing research while escaping, he was actually very unoptimistic in his heart. Otherwise, he would not have made the decision to run away separately and provoke the blame himself.
These mages, who had followed him for a long time, seemed to be ...... through the turmoil of various countries and the establishment of the academy It has also shown very impressive growth.
Benjamin was a little moved, not only was he rescued by others in difficulty, but also felt an inexplicable relief.
In this way, the group hid in the circle of light and flew at high speed for about five or six hours, and finally reached the border of the world of the undead. The bone dragon has been following them, at first, several people were still staring at a little panicked, but after gradually getting used to it, they even felt that this epic undead was like their pet, just following behind all the way, too well-behaved.
At the moment of resisting the ghost abyss, Benjamin even turned around and waved his hand at the bone dragon with a smile.
If the Spirit of Bones could talk to them now, I'm afraid that at this time, even dirty words could come out of its mouth. But...... They couldn't hear it anyway.
With a happy mood, Benjamin and his party flew over the ghost abyss and returned to reality.
