Chapter Eighty-Seven: Preparation
Macpisburg. Chen Le's temporary resting place.
Chen Le glanced at Eggers, and then said, "Wait for Feizi to come, Feizi is here, we will continue to talk." ”
Eggers looked at Maddie suspiciously, and Maddie explained helplessly: "Feiz is a necromancer invited by Master Arthur, I don't know what happened just now, Master Arthur and Feiz are like fatigue, Feiz asked me to bring Master Arthur back first." ”
When Eggers heard the words necromancer, his hands clenched, and his teeth rattled. Soon, though, Eggers gave up, knowing that this necromancer could not be offended, and that if he was offended and the Wraith Crystal could not be allocated, then his sin would be even greater.
Soon, there was a sound at the door. "Arthur, I'm here. Feitz's voice was flat, as if friends were visiting each other's doors.
Chen Le stood up all of a sudden, and then said to Fei Zi, who was dressed in a black robe at the door: "Master Fei Zi, you are finally here, it was really thrilling on the road just now!"
Eggers glanced at Maddie again, and Maddie smiled wryly, because he didn't know what was going on with Chen Le.
Eggers began to look at Feitz carefully.
The black robes, the snake-headed wand, the white skin, and finally the thick hair were what puzzled Eggers. Eggers carefully recalled the image because he felt he had seen it somewhere.
Chen Le jumped out of bed all of a sudden, and then said happily to Fei Zi: "Old man Fei Zi, why did you come so soon." ”
It was clear that the master and servant were planning to put on a big show.
Fei Z quickly got into the role: "Little friend Arthur, I finally figured out what was going on with that magical skeleton I told you about last time. ”
Chen Le knew that this was a real thing, but the development of things was obviously not like this: "Oh, old man Feizi, I remember saying that he was the key to your breakthrough, what's the matter, there is a clue?"
Fetz nodded, then recited the incantation, and soon, the cabin was filled with black smoke, and Eggers' expression was visibly disgusted.
The gray light flashed, and a snow-white skeleton appeared in front of everyone's eyes, he walked in front of him, and then walked in front of Fei Zi and directly performed the noble salute.
A skeleton who knows etiquette? What kind of joke is this? Even a guy like Maddie, a so-called Wizard layman, knows that skeletons only carry out the most basic orders, such as etiquette, I advise you to fantasize about how to slay dragons.
Fei Zi coughed, and the skeleton immediately brought over a stool, and Fei Zi sat down with a smile.
Everyone else was stunned by the skeleton's performance, but Fetz was the only one who looked calm.
Chen Le was puzzled, he rushed to Fei Zi's face, and then grabbed Fei Zi's clothes and shook them. Shaking as he asked, "Old man Feizi, tell me what's going on!"
Fei Zi is a magician, Chen Le is a warrior, although Chen Le did not use any strength, but Fei Zi's small body is really a little unbearable.
The skeleton's expression is very strange, it stands to reason that it is impossible to change the skeleton's expression, because there are only bones, but this skeleton's expression is really a little weird, it gives people the feeling that they are laughing!
Chen Le stopped shaking, and instead, he went to find the skeleton. The skeleton seemed to have discovered Chen Le's purpose, and he wanted to run.
However, Maddie took the first step to block the door, and the skeleton had to look at Chen Lele with a wry smile.
Fei Zi also recovered at this time, he felt dizzy, but he could still speak: "That skeleton has a human soul on its body!"
"What!human souls?skeletons can also be possessed by human souls?" Chen Le was taken aback, he really didn't understand.
Fei Z nodded and said, "Yes, originally the skeleton relied on the soul fire in the eye socket to move, but this skeleton does not have soul fire, I did many experiments to test this skeleton, trying to find out why he is different from other skeletons." ”
Fei Zi sighed and said: "But it all failed, that skeleton was different from ordinary skeletons in terms of ability, until one day, he actually wrote his thoughts on paper, and I was shocked at that time." This skeleton is intelligent, and it was only after I did soul experiments that I found out that he was different. ”
Chen Le waved his hand and said, "Okay, old man Feizi, don't say it, we are not from your side, you don't need such a detailed explanation." ”
Fei Z showed a regretful expression, and then said, "Okay, I want to ask when you plan to get down to business." But let me say first, the best time to extract the Wraith Crystal is at midnight!"
At this time, the moon was already shining, and the cries of demonic beasts outside could occasionally be heard.
Chen Le sighed and said, "Then let's put it now." Do you have any opinions?"
Eggers snorted, then said, "Take your will." ”
Fetz nodded, and left with his staff.
Chen Le walked ahead with Fei Zi.
On the way to the eastern city wall, Chen Le and Fei Zi both saw countless people falling directly to the ground and falling asleep. Although the attacks of the past two days have weakened considerably, the fatigue of the previous days is still there.
"Hello Master Arthur!" Whether it was a soldier or a civilian, whether it was a disabled or a disabled person, they would call out respectfully as long as they could speak after seeing Chen Le.
Chen Lehe enjoys this heartfelt praise. Feitz's head was always down, and he couldn't see what his expression was.
When they got to the stairs up the city wall, there were no people there in the truest sense of the word.
Fei Z had to express his feelings here: "Master, I don't know why those people respect you so much?"
Chen Le smiled and said, "Fei Zi, you are a necromancer, you may not have helped a person in the real sense, right?"
Fei Z nodded, and then said, "Well, in my past life, my daily task was only to keep killing, killing those I thought should be killed. ”
Chen Le smiled and said, "Although this can be regarded as a way to help people, this is the lowest way to help people. You killed those people in the Fish Country, and while those who were bullied may be grateful to you, many more people saw your brutal side and spread the word that the necromancer's reputation was ruined. ”
Fei Z nodded thoughtfully, and at the same time regretted his past mistakes.
Chen Le stopped, then pointed to the sky and said, "Feizi, maybe I don't live as long as you, but I think I should be able to help you in some ways." ”
"The general feeling of necromancers that they are evil is because the world defines them as evil, even if you think you are right, but that doesn't change the world's perception of you. I know you're following me just to help you rebuild that dark court, I promise you, but do what I say. ”
"Whether it's right or wrong, light or evil, these are only the surface of power, and the real definition of right and wrong is in the heart of the person, depending on how you use this power. ”
"As we're about to do, Wraith's Crystals seem to be something incredibly evil, and it can even bother the Heroic Spirits who have died in battle. In normal times, you might be burned at the stake, but now, no one will stop you, and they will try to help you. ”
"Because they know that what you're doing will help them. So, Fetz, you have to remember that necromancy is a very convenient magic, and if we have a territory in the future, I will ask you to summon skeletons to help the people at the bottom, so that they can understand that skeletons are not scary, but will make them like skeletons. ”
Fei Zi looked down the whole time, and he could see that he was trying to digest what Chen Le said.
The two men soon reached the top of the wall,
The walls were covered with gusting winds, and the occasional cry of resentful spirits could be heard.
Chen Le pointed to the seemingly incomparably bright starry sky, and then said, "Go Feizi, this is the first step to change the image of the necromancer!"
"Unlock the quest! Change the Necromancer's avatar and reward the quest: Obtain the building of the Dark Council. Time: Unlimited. ”
