Chapter 90: The Trap of the Undead (Part I)
What one wants to get, one must pay the same price, and this is a truth that all Dharma teachers firmly believe.
Daniel couldn't believe that a man who had met in the water would deal with the black butler of the Inquisition for what happened to him. Saleen looked young, but he was definitely not stupid, there was no impulse in his blue eyes, and Daniel knew that he had to come up with something that would satisfy Saleen before Saleen could help him solve the problem.
"Do you still have that chart?"
"Yes. ”
"Well, kill the Black Butler, you draw me the chart, and I'll use the magic of Lie Detection to confirm if it's true. ”
"That's it?" Daniel couldn't believe it, he thought Saleen wanted his necromantic flame.
"Yes, the price is too small, so you still owe me a favor. Salin replied with a smile. He knew in his heart that even if he didn't help, Rex wouldn't let go of these people from the Inquisition. The hatred between her and the Holy See is simply irreconcilable.
He is just giving a favor, this Daniel can escape in many pursuits, and he is also a talent. And he's a rare necromancer, so it's best to get along with him more and learn more about the secrets of necromancy.
"Okay, I'll draw it for you now. Daniel replied happily.
Saleen somewhat understood why Daniel survived, this person didn't look at the way he cried, it was just an appearance. Deep down, Daniel is probably an unusually strong man. Without his brilliant mind and determination, he would not have been able to escape all the way from the Tangulas Empire.
When I first met Deacon Bai, I couldn't even escape. That time he didn't die, it was entirely because Picasso was in a good mood.
Neris watched from the side, thinking to herself, the master is really getting more and more evil, obviously he wants to kill the people of the Inquisition to please Rex, but he said it righteously.
Rex didn't think so, she was keenly aware of the connection between the two things. The unusually rare Thiago dragon appeared, and it was the people of the Cloud Empire who hunted it down. The Gauss family of Yunliu occupies a huge island with all kinds of exotic magical beasts.
Could it be that Thiago came from that mysterious island? The charts that Saleen asked for were not worth much to Daniel, who simply had no strength to go to that island to drive away the Gauss family, and he had no chance of even returning to the clouds.
Behind Khazarin is the Bitterwater Commandery, and sooner or later, Rex will have enough strength to take over that island. Even if Rex didn't plan to do this, it would be a huge fortune to sell the charts to the people of Alchemy City. Salin only needed to take out a Thiago bone to prove the real surname of the matter.
Fresh dragon bones, mysterious islands, enough to drive the mages of Alchemy City crazy.
As long as Saleen finds his teacher, he can safely sell the chart, and even get a part of the interest on the island. The Gauss family is not the Yunliu Empire, and they can't command a fleet that only belongs to the Yunliu Emperor. If the mages of Alchemy City were concerned about that island, the Gauss family would only swallow their anger and publicize it, and this island would not belong to them, but would be occupied by the Yunliu royal family.
As a Scochenian, with such an accurate judgment of the value of objects, and the use of this wisdom in politics, I am afraid that Saleen will soon become the most important figure in the Empire.
"Daniel, I haven't told you my name yet, my name is Saleen Metatrin, a fourth-level magician. I have a plan now, the people in the Inquisition are divided into three teams, and we need to bring them together so that there are no fish that slip through the net. This needs your help. ”
"What can I do?"
"Bait. ”
Daniel shuddered, but didn't flinch, nodded and said, "Okay." ”
"Don't worry, I've got enough people to deal with the guys in the Inquisition. Salin glanced at Rex, hesitated, and said, "This is Rex, a sixth-level magician." ”
Saleen was afraid that Daniel would back down, so he had to use Rex's identity to calm his heart. Daniel really breathed a sigh of relief, and Salin said: "You are only a third-level mage, and if they dare to divide into three teams, it means that at least one person in each team is at the level of a fifth-level professional, and a fourth-level professional may not be able to deal with you." ”
"Yes, there is at least one first-class priest in each team, as well as assassins. ”
"To get them together, you have to show the abilities of a fourth-level mage. Can you make a Bone Monster?"
"I ...... There are no more cores. Daniel said ashamedly. A magician doesn't even have a magic core on his body, and this is too miserable.
"Don't worry, I've got you covered. Saleen confidently patted Daniel on the shoulder.
Salin's plan is not complicated, the necromancer can summon creatures from the undead plane, but there are not always creatures passing by near the passage of the undead plane, and the success rate is not high, and they must be cultivated after being summoned. It's like Daniel's winged skeleton. So the necromancer thought of an alternative way, which was to create a bone puppet by himself, which was naturally inferior in combat power to summoning creatures, and the advantage was that this thing was cannon fodder, which could be made as long as there were materials.
Of course, Salin's dragon bones can't be wasted on Daniel, and he also has some monster bones that he got from the Divine Punishment Hell. In addition, the three warhorses killed by the dragon are still there, just enough for Daniel to make a bone golem, and put a patchwork skeleton on it, disguised as a mid-level summon - skeleton cavalry.
The three skeleton cavalry, plus the two large white bone beasts that were randomly created, were enough to make the people of the Inquisition pay attention to Daniel. They will cautiously summon their companions and work together. Saleen and Rex each held one end of the village, and they were able to wipe out all the people in the Inquisition.
Daniel is only a third-level necromancer, and the third-level magic core is enough for him to consume. Saleen took out a whole box of third-level magic cores and handed them to Daniel, who burst into tears. It's been a long time since he's touched the magic core, and every time he fights, he's nervous to death. Without a demon core, his necromantic flame doesn't provide much power to fight.
Necromantic flames are somewhat like elemental mages' magic strings, only more mysterious.
Salin still has a lot of demon cores on hand, he has been promoted to the fourth level, and the role of low-level demon cores is no longer much for him, just as valuables. But this is exactly what Daniel needs, he watched Neris take out a large number of demonic beast bones, and his heart was shocked, he couldn't feel any magical power on Nellis, but he could use space equipment, could it be that this woman was also a great magician?
The Winged Skull is a summoned creature, and Daniel quickly selects dozens of bones and begins assembling bone wings for the Winged Skull.
In Salin's plan, he needed to hold out until everyone in the Inquisition had entered the village, and Saleen and the others would do it. This is a real battle, and you can't rely on bone golems. The Wing Skull itself is a mid-level undead creature with higher combat power than Daniel and the ability to fly, which is the main reason why Daniel survived.
Mending the wings of the Wing Skull, Daniel silently chanted the incantation, and a green flame appeared behind him. The green flame emitted a cold aura and floated behind Daniel, more than a man tall. The winged skeleton was tucked into the necromantic flames, slowly fusing the newly assembled bone wings.
Salin didn't envy this magical magic, he looked carefully with cold vision, and saw a little secret of undead magic. Necromantic Flame is a pure energy body, and the caste has nothing to do with the six elements, but has something to do with the life force of the goddess of nature.
Salin's left hand was transformed by this life force, and he had a feeling that if his left hand reached into the necromantic flame, the structure of the necromantic flame would be completely destroyed, and the undead creatures inside would also be killed.
It's like the light element and the dark element can cancel each other out, if one is strong, the other is completely suppressed, and there is no possibility of turning over.
Salin was slightly relieved, the power in his left hand came from the goddess, and it did not have any countervailing effect on elemental magic, but it could suppress undead magic. He was still a little worried at first, afraid that there was something strange about the undead magic, and he couldn't control it.
The three dead horses were still flesh and blood, their bones intact, and Daniel separated into a green flame and began to burn. It's a bit of a hassle to make skeletons, and no one carries a dead person with them.
If you want to forge a skeleton, you need to replace it with the skeleton of a Warcraft. Daniel was a little worried, humans have 206 bones, and it is very troublesome to carve. Of course, it doesn't have to be so perfect to make a puppet, but if you want the puppet to be unable to see the flaws and have flexible movements like a skeleton cavalry, you have to fake it strictly according to the human body.
Saleen told Daniel not to worry, and he gave the job to Neris. Nellis' teeth can process harder materials, and she is also very familiar with the structure of the human body, and Salen's research on the human body is in books, but Nellis has eaten a few people herself.
White bone monsters are relatively easy to fake, and no one knows what creatures are on the undead plane, and the stranger the patchwork, the better.
Daniel was busy until the evening, and when Saleen saw that he had not rested, he asked with some curiosity, "If you have enough magic cores, can you fight all the time?"
"Of course not, necromantic flames consume quickly during combat, similar to elemental mages' magic strings. I can only cast twelve Level 3 magic in a row, and the necromantic flames will dissipate. To reunite, meditation is required. ”
"What about the command summons?" Salin asked, tirelessly.
"Minions, bone golems, don't consume necromantic flames much. However, bone golems need mental power to control, so it is better to summon creatures. ”
Salin somewhat understood, the winged skeleton was somewhat similar to Nerice, both were creatures of the different planes, Neris would not consume her magic strings when she fought, and the same was true for the winged skeleton. However, if the Winged Skull wants to recover from its injuries, it will have to rely on the necromancer.
When everything was ready, Saleen asked, "Daniel, are you afraid?"
"I'm afraid. ”
"That's good, it's too dangerous, just give up the Wing Skull, and I'll provide you with an intermediate magic core to summon another undead creature. ”
