Chapter 50
Tessa was suddenly hugged by her brother, first for a moment, and then her face flushed slightly red—an expression that was so rare for a half-dead person that it was like a sloth running, almost in the category of "impossible". Pen % fun % Pavilion www.biquge.info
She was going to express her attitude with strong actions to hide her true emotions, but she couldn't help but hesitate and was reluctant to take this rare opportunity. So when I was in a dilemma, I heard Tuyaan's words.
"Huh?" At this moment, she really "I don't know what expression to use", "Why did you suddenly think of this?"
Tuyaan didn't understand the true meaning of his sister's words at all, and said with a smile: "I also had the inspiration just now, do you think, what can necromancy do? The most common thing is not to awaken or create necromancy! There are no physical ghosts and the like, such as physical skeletons, zombies, and even living corpses...... They are all honest and obedient, and despite their low intelligence, they are absolutely uncompromising on their master's orders, and they do not hesitate or delay any kind of orders. Aren't such subordinates the best cheap workers?"
The more he spoke, the more proud he became: "Recently, I have also investigated the current situation in Void City and the Northwest Republic in detail, the biggest problem here is the scarcity of workers, whether it is farming, working or developing, a large number of people are needed, but the number of nomads who can be recruited is getting smaller and smaller, and it is impossible to meet the demand. ”
"Don't you think this is the opportunity for us to do our necromancy?" he said happily, "imagine leaving the mundane and simple work to the necromancers, and the living only being in charge of directing the necromancers. Isn't that all at once many, many, many more workers?"
Tessa really wanted to beat her brother hard to punish him for his imprudent behavior and breathe a sigh of relief for her tangled girl. But after all, she was a person who knew what was important, and after hearing this, she put aside Tuyaan's previous mistakes for the time being, and seriously considered the matter.
"Necromancy is created with spells. She thought for a moment and said, "Spells have a cost, and they don't cost much. ”
"Necromancy is almost the lowest cost of all spells. Tu Yaan shook his head, "I'm not trying to create those mid-to-high-level necromancy, I'm just trying to create those low-level ones." With my strength, as long as I have enough materials, I can create at least two or three thousand in one day, and it will be no problem for me to launch an army of tens of thousands of undead in ten days and half a month. ”
He's right, and that's the real reason why necromancers are feared by many countries.
In this world, the spell that disturbs the ruler the most is the necromancy. One of the most critical reasons is that necromancy can quickly create a large number of armies, although the combat effectiveness of a single individual may be weaker, but this kind of army is loyal and brave, will carry out the orders of the lord to the letter, even in the face of the danger of the total annihilation will not have the slightest hesitation and fear. Once they reach size, they are the most feared armies in the world.
More than once in the past, there have been cases of a legendary-level necromancer unleashing an army of necromancy for some reason and declaring war on a certain country. Unless enough strong men are found to form a team to eliminate him, every time the country is defeated. As far as the frontal battlefield is concerned, in the face of the army of necromancy, the army of the living has not been able to achieve victory once.
An important reason why Tuyaan wanted to become a necromancer back then was also this-only by becoming a powerful necromancer could he have the certainty of revenge.
Of course, the more important reason is poverty. To save his dying sister, except for necromancy, all other spells require a lot of money, and what he lacks most is money.
Tessa's situation was not really irreparable, if he had enough money, he could even go directly to a large temple, donate a huge amount of money, and ask the priest to use a powerful magic to heal Tessa - the reason why he was saved was that his adoptive father, his father's classmate when he was a student, donated more than half of the family property to ask for treatment from the temple of wealth.
Tu Yaan was not good at making money, and he was not sure that he would be able to become a high-level mage, so he had to retreat and try to treat his sister himself.
Of all the treatments, the only one he could possibly afford was necromancy.
So he became a necromancer.
If he had known that he could become a legendary mage, he wouldn't have chosen this direction!
A legendary mage, not to mention wealth, just selling face for favors is enough to ask most of the temples to help cure Tessa......
Over the years, Tuyaan has regretted his choice more than once. But now, he was glad that he had chosen the path of a necromancer.
For the Northwest Republic at this moment, the most powerful thing is necromancy!
It's just that this time, he, a legendary necromancer who can be called the "Undead Monarch" and "Death Disaster" in legends, has to do not gather a large army to attack a certain country, but to forge swords into plowshares, mobilize an army of necromancers to participate in national construction, and become the largest labor exporter of the Northwest Republic.
He believed that there might be more masters in the Northwest Republic and the Void Mask Church than himself, and there might be more than one, but the labor force was ...... Hehe, hehehehe, other legendary powerhouses are on the same page, and they can't compare to their own necromantic army!
Don't forget, this is the Ash Forest, the richest place in the world for necromancy. Although most of them are only the lowest-level skeletons, skeletons are also labor!
Skeletons are weaker than strong living people, and even an average farmer can knock them out one-on-one. But when it comes to work, a skeleton is much stronger than a farmer - the farmer needs to eat, he needs to rest, and the skeleton can even work all day and night as long as it replenishes its magic and repairs its wear and tear regularly.
Of course, in the sun, the skeletons will be damaged by the positive energy contained in the sunlight, but this is not difficult to solve, as long as the skeletons are allowed to work at night.
Because of the negative energy contained in the ash forest itself, these skeletons working at night will not only not be worn out, but will also continuously absorb negative energy and become stronger and stronger!
The more Tu Ya'an thought about it, the more proud he became, so he explained to his sister, and hurriedly went out to meet Sui Xiong at the Void Masquerade Temple.
He met Sui Xiong smoothly and told him his plan.
Sui Xiong was scorched by thunder, he never thought that the necromancy could still be used like this!
But after careful consideration, he found that this method was really feasible.
Not only that, but there are even additional benefits to this approach.
The greatest danger to the pioneers of the Ash Forest is the attack of the Skeleton Army on the Night of the Arctic Night. But the army of skeletons does not appear out of thin air, they actually come from the corpses of countless creatures that have died in the ash forest over the years. That's a lot of them, and it's a staggering amount, but with Tu Yaan, a legendary necromancer, it won't take long to transform all the corpses in a large area into skeletons under his control, thus completely eliminating the danger of a "skeleton siege" breaking out in this area.
If nothing else, it's worth letting him do it just for the sake of this!
But Sui Xiong thought about it, but he couldn't help frowning.
Satan, the head of the mage group of the Void Masquerade Church, has been researching ways to purify negative energy all these years. His plan was to construct a huge purification circle that would envelop the entire ash forest, transforming this forbidden area of life into a northern paradise with beautiful mountains and rivers. Tuyaan's idea was certainly good, but it contradicted Satan's plan.
Sui Xiong would not unreasonably favor Satan because he joined his command earlier. But in the long run, Satan's plan is clearly more reasonable, whether it is to allow the people to live in peace and contentment, or to restore the products of the ash forest.
A Northwest Republic with beautiful mountains and rivers is better than a Northwest Republic full of skeletons.
If nothing else, who wants to deal with skeletons all day!
He hesitated, but said these thoughts anyway.
Tuyaan was silent, although in terms of identity, as a mage who was already close to the middle level of the legend, his status should be higher than that of Satan, who had not yet stepped into the realm of legend, but he understood that His Majesty the Void Mask was right. For the civilians of the Northwest Republic, even if skeletons could make a good workforce, they wouldn't want to spend all day with skeletons.
"I'm sorry, I didn't think about it. Finally, he sighed deeply and said, "You're right, even if it weren't for my chances, I wouldn't have chosen to be a necromancer who deals with skeletons all day. I'm still like that, let alone ordinary civilians...... My thoughts are still too simple, too naïve, sorry for wasting your time. ”
Seeing his frustrated face, Sui Xiong persuaded: "Your idea is actually very useful, at least in front of you, and it can come in handy for the Northwest Republic." As for what the future holds...... What is to come, we will talk about it in the future. Even if you don't need these skeletons in the future, at least they were, didn't they?"
Tuyaan then turned his worries into joy and laughed again.
"You're right, the future will be talked about later. Even if the Northwest Republic doesn't need me in the future, at least I can play a role now, and I can help you now, it's better than not being able to do anything!"
As he spoke, he clenched his fists, his eyes regained a strong glow of confidence, and his expression became urgent.
There isn't much time left for him, so he has to hurry up and make some results! )
