Chapter 69: Clearing the Battlefield

Sitting in front of the console in a daze, I wanted to leave everything there and ignore anything. It's a pity that as the lord of this land, if you let it go, you really won't have anyone else to do it for you.

The two apprentices wanted to cheer up and deal with the mess outside, but they were still sent away by Lin. He said to the two girls whose eyes were still red, "You can take care of the affairs in the tower and concentrate on your schoolwork." I'll take care of the things outside. ”

This time, Lin didn't want to throw the blame on them. The situation outside is too miserable, rather than leaving things to two girls who are not mentally mature to finish, and then spend time doing psychological construction, it is better to clean up after the beginning. Anyway, this result is also self-inflicted, so it is natural for you to clean up the aftermath by yourself.

But before that, you have to communicate with the group of living people outside the tower. Pick up the helmet used to control the clone during the 3D stereoscopic imaging and put it on. With a snap of his fingers, the Arcane Eye that looked at the Revival Army and the townspeople immediately moved in reverse, turning the function of absorbing the light chromatography into a reverse shot, condensing its own clone.

Compared to the projection in the tower, which has no flaws in appearance, the image of the clone projected in reverse by the arcane eye is lighter, slightly transparent, and has no spell casting ability. But the voice, expressions, and movements can be faithfully presented. Lin arched his hand and greeted, "Gentlemen." ”

The sudden appearance of the tower master frightened everyone. In the midst of the stunned crowd, Mira Salian stepped out and saluted, "Your Excellency, Lord of the Tower. ”

"You are safe and sound, it can be said that it is the only fortunate thing today."

"Thank you for your mercy." Mira Salian said in a sour tone, "But don't you think it's too much for Your Excellency to do this? ”

With a wry smile, Lin said embarrassedly: "I didn't provoke the matter. And once the magic is cast, I don't have a way to stop it safely. It's not something I'm happy to see this happen. I can only say that it is a pity. ”

On this point, Lin Ke is not lying. The improved Light Missile Attack Array, once the target is locked, the magic is activated, and there are only two situations to stop: the target is completely destroyed, the target escapes the lock-on range, or the magic tower is destroyed. Lin hadn't thought about the need for Ctrl+C interrupts before.

Mira Salian didn't want to ask too much. On the one hand, they are unwilling to overstimulate the tower owner, and on the other hand, it is indeed the Marquis of Neumann and others who are to blame. She was not angry and asked, "Then Your Excellency appeared in front of us as a doppelganger, for the purpose?" ”

Only then did Lin carefully look at the heroic eldest princess in front of him. Wearing appropriate heavy armor will still maintain its shape and flexibility, so that it will not be inflexible and inconvenient in the joints due to the armor. The flail tied around the waist was stained with blood, and at first glance, you could tell that it was not a good product. Coupled with the simple rune on the left chest, it was not the coat of arms of the nobility.

"Is that the mark of the Mystic Lord?" Ever since Lin traveled to the Maze World, he has been dealing with runes. Of course, I am quite familiar with the mystery of one of the eight powers, the gods to which it belongs, and the related knowledge.

"Yes. This is the mark of the Mystic Lord Klein. My other identity is the chief priest of the temple to which the Mysterious Church belongs. Mira Salian professed her identity, but she did not name herself in the church. This is also the practice of the upper echelons of the Mysterious Church, to avoid the enemies formed by the 'White Mist' from coming to trouble themselves.

Lin also knew the weight of the title of 'Temple Warrior Chief', which was the ultimate in the military force under the divine power. In addition, the mysterious lord Klein is in charge of one of the eight powers used by magicians, and magicians are not hostile even if they do not believe, so the mysterious lord is also considered to be at the forefront of the divine power of the Lost World.

So Lin put aside some unnecessary worries and asked politely: "Your Highness, I don't know if your sect has a transcendent undead ritual or something?" ”

"Transcending the undead?" Mira Sallian didn't understand the term well.

Lin's understanding of the theocratic church is only known by hearsay, and he does not understand the details. In the past, people who were seriously ill and injured were all looking for solutions from the magic aspect, and they had never dealt with the church, so they didn't know the differences between the churches. For a magician, the services provided by each church are similar, so it can be difficult to tell.

And transcending the undead Yunyun is his understanding of the knowledge of the earth and applied it to the world of the lost land. But I didn't expect that there was no such statement in the Lost World, or that the Mystery Church did not have such a business?

Trying to put it in a way that others can understand, Lin explained: "It is to let the soul of the dead go to the underworld safely, or to the gods he believes in, and not to stay in this world." You see so many people killed in this battle, it would be terrible if it caused a natural disaster of the undead or something. I don't want my place to be haunted all day. ”

As if to understand the meaning of Lin's words, Mira Salian said, "I understand that your so-called transcendence of the undead, the Lord of Mysteries, does not have a relevant ritual. To deal with the undead, we have the magic to directly destroy the spirits. But you don't have to worry about this kind of problem, in my eyes, the souls of the dead here are no longer there, and there will be no problem of the undead. As for the reason, I don't know. But it's not like there's a hidden dark mage, deliberately collecting the souls of the dead. In the air, there is no unpleasant stench. ”

"In other words, the dead here are just pieces of meat?"

"Pieces of meat? Yes, if you want to describe it that way, it's really just a piece of meat. However, without a soul, the corpse can still be used by the dark mage...... Well, well, I correct. The corpses here, the dark mages don't bother to use them. ”

In the magic of the undead system, whether it is to make stitched corpses, skeleton soldiers, or even higher-level necromantic knights, lichs, etc., there is one thing in common, that is, the corpse must have a certain degree of integrity. The most important of these is the vertebrae. Everyone here was killed by the light bullet magic, and the spine and sternum were damaged, and the dark mages could only shake their heads when they saw it.

Since there was no possibility of haunting, Lin said with peace of mind: "Your Highness, here are all the nobles and soldiers of your Frank Kingdom. ”

"Yes, so?" Mira Salian raised an eyebrow. Is this a prelude to blackmail?

"Are there any of the deceased who you need to give back to your family? If not, I'll do it my way. Otherwise, so many dead people are scattered around, and the undead natural disaster does not cause trouble, but causes a plague, it is not a joke. Or let them be bitten by wild beasts, and thus attract a tide of beasts, which is not what I want to see. ”

"What are you going to do?"

"Gather together for cremation. Find another place to dig a pit, bury the ashes, and erect a mass grave. ”

At this time, Mendelsson, who had been standing silently behind the eldest princess, spoke. "Your Highness, for those great nobles, if you can return the corpses of those people, at least you can alleviate the hatred of their family. Even if they don't get support, they don't dare to oppose it too strongly. That's a good thing. ”

Hearing the voice of the old man with whom he dealt most often, Lin didn't wait for the eldest princess to answer, and after tapping the ring on the third knuckle of the middle finger of his left hand, he said, "I will gather people who seem to have status in the open space to the north." Your Highness will send someone over there to identify you, and take away those you need. The bodies of the rest of the people, I will gather them in the west. When you're all done, I'll cremate the rest. ”

At the same time, the arcane eye at the top of the magic tower twitched in all directions, locating and identifying all the dead. This also caused Lin's clone to flash intermittently, and the voice was fully conveyed.

When the Arcane Eye is locked, re-anchor and maintain Lin's stereoscopic image of the magic clone. A modified version of the Magic Tower from Boca Mosho's Giant Palm, which forms six magical arms with a pale cyan glow at the top of the Great Sage's Tower. Keep grabbing the corpse everywhere and quickly place it in the predetermined position.

This sight once again frightened the living people. From the top of a stone tower, six arms appeared, which could be freely changed in length or short, and it seemed as strange as it was. Although it's just moving things now, what about attacking it?

It's hard to say which is more threatening, the scene of the sky full of bullets flying around, or the current picture of six huge arms grabbing things when they see them. Because for the human beings in it, they all die at the touch of it.

The Giant Palm Technique was born from the Giant Fist Technique, which was originally only a powerful magic used to attack from a short distance. After the improvement of the Grand Magician Bocamoghio, the Giant Palm has more changes in its moves, and can be seen as an extension of the magician's arm, making some movements, but it is still essentially a type of attack magic. The mage used also doesn't expend much mana to maintain a magic arm.

Most of the times when it is not used for attacks is to fish for something from a dangerous place like Lin used before. Or it's triggering some obvious trap instead of taking the risk yourself.

No magician will deliberately use this magic to carry out some engineering construction. The project of the world of Lost Earth is still in the stage of pure manpower. This is also because the apprentice-level light object technique and the giant force technique are too easy to use, enough to cope with many construction that ordinary people can't do, so there is no progress in the application of tools at all.

But what does the energy pool of the magic tower do. With the support of semi-permanent infinite energy, Lin realizes a magic arm with functions such as strange hands, cranes, and gantry cranes. And this first appearance is used to move corpses......

It's really helpless. However, Lin still said to the frightened crowd, "Everyone, please rest assured. That's just for moving things, and it won't hurt anyone. And whether you go back to the town or go north to recognize people, please feel free to do so. I left first. ”

"Tower master, wait a minute, I have something to ask."
