Chapter Forty-Three: Someone Comes!
In the world of Salano, all sapient life species are not very fond of humans. Pen, fun, and www.biquge.info
The reason for this is not because of human aggression, expansion, or darkness in human nature.
Rather, it is because of the short life span of human beings.
Human beings feel very wronged by this, and say that we don't want this kind of thing.
But facts are facts, and the short life span of human beings has caused many problems.
Because of their short lifespan, human beings have a sense of urgency that other high-level intelligent populations do not have, and it is not unrelated to short-sightedness, short-sightedness, and even greed.
Also because of the short lifespan, human beings must be in sufficient numbers to support civilization. This creates a huge demand, just to feed these people, not the traditional fishing, hunting and harvesting of natural gifts, coupled with the need for clothing, shelter, transportation, etc., so that the human population of natural resources is very large, so large that other populations are afraid.
The short life plus the number creates the problem of soul placement.
In this world, except for human beings, there is a saying that 'let the soul rest in peace', there are no other populations, and people say to return to nature. Humans can't do it, because there are too many, and the huge base causes a kind of indigestion-like stasis, so there are ghosts, ghosts, and powerful souls, most of which are changed by human souls, and there are very few of other species.
Similarly, necromancy is basically born from humans. Corpses, obsessed souls, and awakened souls are all targets of necromantic spells.
Before the prosperity of human beings, the only thing similar to necromancy magic was the voodoo of the spirits, and the spirits used to have a huge population, but the voodoo and shamanic ways of the spirits all came from nature and returned to nature.
Human beings are not indifferent to death, they are afraid, but more of an unfulfilled wish formed by the inertia of life, so they form an obsession after death and forcibly wander in the world.
Therefore, the common words used in human sacrifices are: May so-and-so rest in peace. To put it bluntly, you should die, don't die, you can't die.
But this is often not transferred by human will, he is still ghostly, and you can't help it.
Therefore, other high-level intelligent lifeforms are very unwelcome to this short-lived species that is the only one squeezed into the ranks of high-level intelligent lifeforms, and they are too capable of making trouble, and they are like mothers every day, and the major events that have happened in the elves in 10,000 years are not as many as the major events that have happened in the human race in ten years.
From Li Yun's current point of view, he wishes that there would be more wandering souls.
"Talent, there are not enough living people, and I have reached out to the dead! I am so hungry and thirsty, so give some heroic spirits or something to help me!"
With the help of the underground energy veins, the scope of his inspiration this time was large enough, not only encompassing more than half of the Night Forest, but also expanding beyond the forest in the southeast and northwest.
"I, Bavonte, have been summoned, what can you give me?"
"Feel the body of this world and the power of your life again with your five senses. ”
"I was an arcane master when I was alive, studying the destruction of demonic bodies, how do you get me to have the arcane body again?" asked Bafonte, the first inspired soul.
"I'm working on an ambitious project, and if I succeed, I'll be able to collect a bottle of water from the Well of Eternity and use it to build an energy well, and your Arcane Body will not be a problem. ”
"By the core of the arcane law, if you can allow me to regain the body of the arcane, then I, Bavonte Shadowblade, will be loyal to you, following you right and left until the end of your life. ”
"The oath is good, but before that, I need to sign a reciprocal soul contract, and I need your help to complete the project. As he spoke, he gave the contents of the soul contract.
After reading it, Bavonte said, "As you wish." ”
After the contract was signed, Li Yun sent Bavonte to the Blood Moon Wilderness.
Soon, a second inspired powerful soul appeared.
"I am Farion, one of the six Ancestor Leaders of the Age of Stacked Flowers who explored south from the Mana Heights, Summoner, your soul is strong and high, I feel the will of the world and the favor of the moon god in you, I will join in and create glory with you. ”
"Frightened, it's an ancient king. Li Yun was shocked in his heart, feeling that the knowledge and authority given by the goddess this time was really strong, and even this kind of old antique could be awakened!
There is no doubt about the strength of the ancestors to explore the leader, this is the kind of strong man who can take charge on his own and has almost no shortcomings.
Before the contract was signed, a third person appeared.
"I'm Saint Koras?Bloodfire, Summoner, can you let me embark on the Legendary Path again?"
"You're, an orc of the Bloodfire Clan?"
"I am a hybrid of the Bloodfire Orcs and the Eta people, and I came to the world of Salano when the first stargate was opened, to appreciate the world and perfect the seed of the realm. ”
"Oh, that was a long time ago. I can help you, provided that you complete an epic quest, and are you willing to sign a contract with me and work together to achieve your goal?"
Colas said, "I do." ”
After signing Koras, after a short while, the fourth appeared.
Li Yun knew that the length of time of the invocation often corresponded to the soul strength of the person being inspired, and in most cases, the soul strength was directly proportional to his ability.
The reason why the first one to appear is Bafonte is related to his legal profession, in addition, the shadow blade is a forest elf clan, and Bafonte should be a hybrid of celebrities and forest elves, which is not uncommon, in the era of the Great Arcanist, mixed blood was quite common, especially mixed with elves.
In terms of the strength of the front, it is about the sharper leader of the ancestors, Faleon, in that era, a wooden stick or a stone hammer or stone axe could cut out a future, and he was definitely a ruthless person who had to kneel when he returned to the basics.
In comparison, although the quasi-saint is only half a step away from the sword saint and has a very famous name, it is estimated that there is a significant gap with the first two when it comes to fighting. What's special is that the power of the seed of the realm is blessed on the weapon, which is barely an extraordinary ability, and it can break ten thousand laws with one sword.
The fourth, called Dobaru Deep Rock, is from the Dark Regions, is a gray dwarf, he is the seventeenth generation master craftsman of the Deep Rock clan, similar to the technical chief engineer of the human race, he was killed by his apprentice, because he drank the fountain of life, and his lifespan far exceeds that of ordinary gray dwarves, blocking the way for apprentices to become master craftsmen.
The Grey Dwarves were said to have been exiled by the dwarves for their evil runic techniques, and were enslaved by the Mindcatchers, who tried to transform them into a loyal slave race, but eventually the Grey Dwarves were freed.
It's been too long to verify, but one thing is at least true, and that's that the grey dwarves are mostly in the Order-Evil camp.
Their main living area is the middle level of the dark region, often fighting with dark elves because of resources, and with spirit suckers is a feud, they have a special technology to resist the spirit magic of the Mind Flayer, if anyone is going to war with the Mind Flayer, it is a good choice to ask a gray dwarf to be an advisor, and he is happy to help, even if the Mind Flayer tribe has never provoked him.
Dobaru is a master of both crafting weapons and rock building, as well as using runes.
Dwarves basically use runes, they have their own spell casting system, that is, rune mages, and even special rune dwarves.
The runes used by the Grey Dwarves, known as the Abyss Runes, are dark-oriented, and they have led the rise of the Deep Rock Clan and ushered in an era. But in the end, he couldn't experience the decisive battle to destroy his old enemy, which became his biggest regret. The contract he signed with Li Yun was that Li Yun must destroy the Fire Hammer Clan established by his apprentice within ten years, otherwise he would suffer from a severed soul every day.
After some consideration, Li Yun agreed to him, so this master craftsman who was good at fighting but better at building became his construction consultant.
After these four, three more Heroic Spirits came, but in the end they couldn't talk about it. Two of them are because they feel too good about themselves and put forward too high requirements, Li Yun thinks it is inappropriate after thinking about it, and the other one is a true temperament, and directly said that he is not happy if he has no sister, if he can't guarantee that he will change two fresh girls every ten days for him to play, he will not serve Li Yun. Li Yun directly rejected the request to become a pimp in disguise.
After that, there were no heroic spirits, all awakened souls.
He summarized it and divided it into three categories.
The first category is people, there are about two hundred of them, although there is no ordinary theory of awakened souls, most of them are people who are chosen for a while, but there are still many non-combat professions.
He could understand the situation. Humans are warlike, yes, but they are not a good fighting race, especially in this world, where the only advantage humans have is through a series of external armaments to gain combat effectiveness.
Because of this, in the long run, absorbing this batch of awakened souls is still relatively cost-effective.
The second category is the Dark Elves. He hadn't thought of this before. The main thing is that I didn't expect there to be so many. There are more than a thousand, and they can form another battle group.
After understanding, he learned that there was once a glorious dark elf kingdom in the dark region of this land. For unknown reasons, they were collectively given death by the spider god Queen Rose, and their souls were forever imprisoned in the country where they once lived, constituting the first-class evil spirit dungeon in this region.
The Dark Elves are desperate to be his leg hair, as this is the only way out, or they will either collapse or be transformed into Wraiths (Corrupted), Spirits (Destruction), and Demon Spirits (Distorted) like their crazy kind.
Li Yun considered that this matter involved Rose behind the spider, and sooner or later it would be a problem. Especially Rose has always doted on the dark elves, like this kind of destruction of a country without relieving hatred, the practice of imprisoning and collapsing the soul alive, I dare not say that it is unique, it is also very special, he doesn't know what this big black cauldron is, this is the key.
He thought about it for a long time before agreeing to sign the contract. Of course, the terms of the contract were harsh, and he became a slave owner ruthlessly.
But the Dark Elves embraced it. For them, it was just a change of worship from Rose to someone else, and they were used to it. If there is a fly in the ointment, Li Yun is not a woman, this is a flaw.
The third category is miscellaneous spirits, which add up to less than three hundred. There are more than 100 specific species types, flying in the sky, running on the ground, swimming in the water, everything, because it is the awakened soul, and the worst has secondary intelligence, that is, the IQ level of a human child who is seven or eight years old.
The vast majority of this group is unconditional, and the mere fact that they can get a real body and feel the world again has already made them ecstatic, with low requirements and high plasticity, but it is not without problems.
The first is that it is too miscellaneous, which will put a terrifying level of pressure on logistics. To put it bluntly, I can't afford to play, at least not yet.
The second is the problem of cultivation, with good plasticity and high growth, which is a matter of the future, and requires investment in energy, material resources, and so on. But his main problem now is to continue to run the staff, so it is better to have work experience.
In the end, he was reluctant to easily disperse these high-quality awakened souls, and sent them to the Blood Moon Wilderness to raise, intending to digest them slowly.
At this point, the large-scale invocation ceremony ended. The next time it is of this scale, I am afraid that it will have to wait for another eternal well water to be obtained, if nothing else, for the energy pool to open up the energy veins underground.
Under normal circumstances, even the so-called large-scale invocation ceremony cannot have such depth and breadth, and to build a similar environment, not counting the materials, it will take three to five years just for time. Reckoning, that is, where Nesmai is brilliant and has lasted long enough, it is worth doing this, but people will definitely not let it, and the court mage and the Holy See, and even the royal family, it is estimated that they will unite to beat those who are ready to play like this to death. After all, it is not as simple as the leaders of the ancestors awakened there.
The soul is there, the body is relatively easy to obtain, the Blood Moon Wilderness and the Dead Cold Hills have enough materials, and the corpses are still relatively sufficient after swallowing the Black Blade Legion and slaughtering the Intense Color and Corrosion Legion of Servis before. And he took precautions at that time, preferring to wait for the soul rather than let the soul wait, and there were a lot of blood corpses waiting to be activated in the Blood Moon Wilderness. Of course, there is a huge amount of energy involved, and the number is less than three hundred, so in fact, most of the contracted souls still need to wait.
In terms of heroic spirits, Bavonte, Colas, Dobaru and so on all had to have a body that was just suitable for their use, only the ancestor leader Faleon selected a special body that was carefully selected and regained its material form.
Influenced by the fusion of souls, Falyon has the original image characteristics, with a burly figure and a noble appearance. To put it bluntly, it is relatively bumpy in length, with a brain door, high eyebrow bones, high cheekbones, a shoehorn face, a square chin, thick beard, a nose that is stiff enough, or too stiff, from between the eyes, there is a bulge from between the eyes, and the bones look like that, it looks like a strange feeling of being squeezed by the door when I was a child. His skin was black and yellow (Ah San) and he was two meters tall, and Farion told Li Yun that he was a small man who had not developed well in that era.
Farion soon made Li Yun understand what it means to eat grass and milk milk, as an ancestor, its power system is closer to the witch barbarism of the spirit man, that is, all things have spirits, and heaven and earth borrow power, this man first knelt down and worshiped the earth, and then the armor was there, and then worshiped the forest, the weapon was there, and then worshiped the heaven and earth, and finally this time was slightly longer, about a quarter of an hour, so the mana also had it. And in the process, the combing of the new body by the force of nature is also completed.
Farion's dependence on him can be said to be very low, as long as there is a fulcrum, as long as there is a body to keep him in this world, Farion can get everything he needs from nature, and he can't figure out what this ruthlessness was killed in the first place.
"Abyss Lord, I was killed by an Abyss Lord entrenched here, teleported to the Dark Void, my soul returned, but my body was completely destroyed. ”
"The Abyss Lord is a member of the Legion of Destruction, right?"
"Yes, there were many remnants of the Legion of Doom in the world at that time, all of whom were members of the Second Legion invasion, tasked with adding strength to their masters through killing and destruction. After the defeat of their masters, they wandered around, most of them fleeing into the depths of the Dark Realm, which is also the origin of the demons of the Abyss. ”
Farion became his assistant, leading fifty-three Terran Blood Warriors, as well as a hundred Bone Spearmen and a hundred Bone Warriors. It is mainly responsible for guarding the forest entrance to the south of the town.
Another assistant is Amagir, whose name means Star Flower, she is the Shadow Ranger General of the Earth Song Kingdom (in fact, it is a regional force with a larger dungeon as the main body), the Dark Elf is a feminist society, the military and politics are in the hands of women, and men are mostly engaged in technical work in daily production, and if they are in the army, they are soldiers.
The Dark Elves do not produce good warriors, nor do they have heavy cavalry, but they are famous for their Shadow Hunters and Shadow Assassins, and they are more famous for their production of magical artifacts based on trinkets and robes. If you prefer flashy armor to practical armor, then the armor of the Dark Elves is also a good choice.
This time, Amagir led sixty Blood Shadow Hunters and one hundred and twenty Bone Warriors, one hundred and twenty Bone Spearmen. She was in charge of guarding the entrance to the forest in the town, which was the one that Li Yun and the three of them had taken when they came.
Li Yun himself sits in the center, and his side is Miri Galaze (jewel garland), the second priest of the Earth Song Kingdom, who has mastered the divine art system, and now together with more than a dozen priests of the original spider queen Rose, they have all converted to the Eclipse Moon, they are not believers in the Moon God, but through his divine agency system, with the Eclipse Moon as the object of faith, through the gradually woven faith, divine power exchange system, to obtain divine magic. The logo is a flame halo of silver-blue flames, symbolizing the annular solar eclipse of the moon blocking the sun.
The Eclipse Priest was divided into two groups, one following Farion and the other following Amagil, with Li Yun in the center.
He doesn't have a Bone Warrior under his command, but he does have a few strange characters: the two-headed ogre wizard Gulenom, the dragonborn kobold warlock Gilara, the lizardman and minotaur hybrid druid Ursar Brute, and the black-cursed boar shaman Agar Thorn.
All four of them are legal professions, but none of them are authentic mages, either by blood or by faith, and each of them can write an autobiographical novel with ups and downs.
He had killed a lot of evil mages before, and he could still do it by giving each of these four similar magical equipment.
The four crooked melons, one with two Eclipse Moon Corpse Witches, twelve Black Armor (the kind of immortality based on the Black Corpse jointly developed with the Dead Maggot Fryer), along with Miri Galaze and two Eclipse Moon Priests, sat with him, mainly staring at the Baldwin family's mansion to prevent the other party from taking advantage of the chaos.
In addition to this, there are sixty Blood Shadow Assassins, former Shadow Assassins who have acquired bloody corpses, equipped with the sophisticated equipment of the Night's Watch. The Night's Watch had an abundant arsenal of supplies, and he made a fortune from it, not only arming the Blood Shadow Assassins, but also taking a batch by the Werewolves during the day. One of his favorites is the Wire Cross Heavy Crossbow, which is paired with demon-breaking arrows and can be called a knight killer.
The Blood Shadow Assassins were scattered by him and traveled to Lion Rock in duo mode to find the Vincennes. The Spirit of the Raven patrols the contact, and if found, sends the message back.
There are still dozens of bloody corpses to use, but they lack energy and are unable to activate.
The fusion of blood corpses and souls requires a huge amount of energy, including divine power, to activate and carry out the final shaping that matches the soul, and this military construction will deplete two months' reserves.
He didn't feel how urgent it was before, but now he feels that the production capacity is not good, let alone raising a large army, and he can't even be armed, so he naturally thinks about Ms. Meng's dream garden.
Take down the Dream Garden and restart the tube of eternal well water in his hand, so that he will have a real territory of his own. After that, the eclipse moon system was built there, and it was really rooted.
Also, it is more convenient and energy-efficient to mobilize people from the Dreamyard than from the Blood Moon Wilderness or the Dead Cold Hills.
As soon as he thought of this, his heart couldn't help but be eager.
However, the more this happened, the more he warned himself to be careful with every step. The Dream Garden has not yet fallen into the bag, and there are still great variables as to what will happen in the end.
As soon as he thought of this, he felt the need to deepen his power in this forest town and use everything he could.
"Gulenom, you spoke of your sorcery before, and I think it's useful now. You go to the culvert and take all the uninhabited houses. ”
Gulenom, who was playing with his new body, had two heads, one named Gule and the other Noem, and Gule said, "Yes, master, I will go." Then he said to Noam, the other bald head with dense war tattoos, "Hey, it's time to start!"
Noam said with a bit of a silly, "Oh, are you going to turn the house into a little toy?"
"Yes, there's a big house for us to change. ”
"Oh, that's great!" ......
The two heads walked towards the other side as they spoke, and the two Dead Witches and the twenty Black Armor consciously followed their leader.
Li Yun said to the half-blood druids again: "Ursar, the Culvert area will become a dark military camp in the future, I want you to plant the kind of giant tan you said over there, and fence that area with wolf fangs and thorns to prevent the dark power from escaping." ”
"Do as you command, master. "Ursar has a deep voice, he is a product of a laboratory, a wizard wanted to create a powerful warrior, so he bred the White Sand Lizard, who is closer to the dragon of the earth, and the fierce Minotaur of the Wild Totem Clan, and finally had Ursar. He has the sturdy and tall physique of a minotaur, but his claws and feet are typical of a lizardman, with a cow's tail and scales, and the lizardman's head and horns raised diagonally forward.
Li Yun once asked him if he had adjusted, such as being either a lizardman or a minotaur, but Ursar finally chose his original appearance, went through hardships, believed in nature, he had a strong will, he was the most powerful soul among the four wonders, and he had passed the stage of being ashamed of his appearance.
Agar the Black Cursed Boar and Kirara the Dragonborn Kobold are both female, and both have a special bloodline, the former being created by the Legion of Doom and not accepted by other Boar Clans, and the latter being a rare type. Kobolds themselves have dragon blood, and their language is dragon language, of course, not very good.
Dragons are lewd, mainly referring to wurm, and the source of wurm is in the five-color dragon, red, blue, green, black and white, this is the strength ranking of the five-color dragon, whether it is a population or a monomer, it can be arranged in such an order.
As for how such a large dragon and a koblin-like kobold, who are less than a meter tall and look more like a mouse, copies, this academic question is actually very easy to answer, not directly mating, but bloodline diffusion.
Gilara's special is the awakening of the big next generation, the kobold is oviparous, the lizard man is also oviparous, the dragon is also oviparous, Gilara is born as a lizard, but the size is as big as a dragon egg, and was raised as a dragon egg by a green dragon wurm who is not very good at making a brain, and she is very similar to the dragon in the young dragon stage, and there is no more obvious difference until the young dragon period.
Li Yun also used divine magic to make up the dragon blood essence she needed from the countless corpses she had seized, fortunately, 'blood' was his talent, otherwise these two were very dependent on blood, and it would definitely be a big problem to reproduce their original strength.
This time, Li Yun gave the two of them the task of 'erecting' the Baldwin family's mansion, that is, stripping it of its connection with the earth.
As for himself, he transformed the magic fountain into the characteristics of the deep well of the moon, enhancing the efficiency of energy throughput and supporting various actions.
So from the beginning of the evening, a series of work has not stopped, one after another, which can be called a big construction.
Wanda secretly contacted, instigated, and armed a group of people, and planned to quietly return to the Dream Garden for a second arming. After all, even if he had the equipment of the night watchman, it was far from enough to fight Li Yun. They saw that last night. So their greatest hope is to enter the Garden of Dreams and turn themselves from gardeners into guardians.
Sheen is a guardian, and having the ability to transform is the most intuitive characteristic of a guardian.
In the past, if you wanted to become a guardian, you had to go through a series of tests. Now that the threshold has become extremely low, many people who have agreed to follow have calculated their own small accounts in their hearts, and feel that they can mix up the transformation ability first, and when the time comes, they can fight a good fight, and if they can't fight, even if they leave here, relying on their ability, where can they not worry about a similar status, maybe they can also deceive the turtle lord in the countryside, and mix a chief warrior, guard captain or something.
But this idea of theirs is stuck in the step of not being able to return to the mansion.
Originally, they had reached the chamber below the Thorn Tavern through a secret passage under the town. There is not only one secret passage, but it leads in all directions, leading to all parts of the town, and even outside the town.
However, when they tried to use the secret passage to return to the mansion, they found that the door was sealed with energy.
A faint blue light enveloped the doors, which could not be broken even by chopping and chiseling with an axe.
Nearly 100 people have been trapped in the secret passage system since the morning. They had absolutely no idea what was going on in the town.
Wanda is not one of them. She was lucky not to rush back to the Dream Garden, but worked hard to trick and gather people. According to Ms. Meng's plan, at midnight today, a battle will be launched to fight inside and outside, not only to defeat Li Yun, but also to completely control the town.
By the time she found out that something was wrong, she had already sent three groups of people away from the secret passage.
She felt like she had done a good job. Those who are on the list of members of the church have basically been encouraged by him. She also secretly observed the arrival of werewolves and the migration of people in the culvert area.
These townsfolk who joined last had the most problems, and tonight's action was mainly aimed at them. Unexpectedly, he was forcibly relocated by Li Yun.
But it didn't matter, she secretly calculated the itinerary, the migration party set off in the afternoon, with its speed, and by the evening, it was estimated that it had just walked out of the southeast mountains, and happened to encounter the army from the Hesgreen Mill, and the army would teach those werewolves how to be human.
But in the evening, when she saw a huge door of light opening at the edge of the magic fountain, hula and unleashing her immortal combat power, she was not calm.
She still had the basic vision, and as a member of the evil twist, she could easily feel these immortal power characteristics. These undead creatures are powerful, yet they have distinct characteristics. For example, the Blood Moon series is already very similar to ordinary dark creatures in terms of life characteristics. If she hadn't discovered that these people didn't breathe at all but only absorbed free energy, she wouldn't have known that these people were immortal.
As for the Bone Warrior, the Bone Spearman, and the Black Armor, the Dead Cold Corpse Witch, the undead characteristics are obvious enough, but these beings also have the characteristics that make her shudder, that is, the power of the Death Chill. This is a first-class force that exists for destruction. Even in the Legion of Destruction, there are only a few people who control this kind of power, and she actually saw a dozen of such existences here, and the meaning is still basic soldiers, how can this not shock her? Although in terms of energy intensity and reserves, the power of death and cold possessed by these soldiers cannot be compared with the ruthlessness of the Destruction Legion, but the problem is that the army of the Lost Dream Garden is far from being comparable to the monsters of the Destruction Legion, and these soldiers can still restrain the army of the Lost Dream Garden to death.
Wanda was overwhelmed by the thought that this terrible force would block the passage and prevent the army from entering, and that the interior of the Lost Dream Garden would erupt at midnight.
This is obviously another pitfall, it is the insidious layout of the other party deliberately letting Marlowe go back, so that Ms. Meng can make a wrong judgment based on the information provided by Marlowe. When the time comes, the guards of the Dream Garden will definitely suffer a big loss!
Wanda felt that there was no need to make any more observations, and that she had to tell Ms. Dream the information. A villain who is also dark is in the dark side, intent on stealing the fortune of Lady Dream. She had to tell Ms. Dream to change her plans while it was still too late.
Then, when she was using the secret passage, she noticed that something was wrong with the doors, and she sensed some of the subtle features of the magic trap, so she sent some people to experiment. As a result, these people never returned. So she knew, and the secret passage system had also become a trap!
Wanda became more and more anxious, but she had realized that she would never be able to rush in, and if she headed for the mansion openly, she would probably be caught in the net.
After some urgent thought, she and several of her subordinates went into the woods, she wanted to leave the Night Forest in the most stupid way, and then take a group of elites back in the stupidest way, and at midnight, in response to Ms. Dream's actions, and puncture the villain's trap in one fell swoop! )
