Chapter 53 The Necromancer a
"Boss, what's going on?" asked Gonde.
Richard opened his eyes and said, "Get ready, we're going to fight again, it could be a tough battle!"
Gangde was stunned, grinned, and said, "Good thing!"
Splash pursed her lips slightly, and her eyes lit up.
The others were also mostly in good spirits, and it was good to have a fight after walking in the dreary forest for a long time.
Richard sensed the position of the brood and sped towards the battlefield. After a few kilometers, the terrain gradually sloped downward, and a swamp shrouded in gray mist came into view.
In the thick gray fog, the incomparably huge figure of the brood loomed, and everyone who saw it couldn't help but lose their minds for a while. Even the ogre brothers stopped in amazement when they saw the brood, which was more than two meters tall and six meters long from head to tail. Sanshu gripped his helmet hard, looking a little unwilling to believe his eyes.
The brood was fighting, its shrill hiss, clumsy and slow movements, acid splattering in all directions, its wide, slightly shriveled belly constantly expanding and contracting, and each agitation spewed out large clouds of yellow-green mist from the folds and crevices, and a rich sour and spicy smell could be smelled from a long distance. Ten meters around the brood are covered with this acid mist. Even an ogre with rough skin and thick flesh and natural resistance would not dare to rush into this mist at will, which was comparable to the power of the sixth-order spell acid mist.
Richard's pupils shrank, and although the gray fog of the swamp and the acid mist of the brood interfered with his vision, he could already see that there were hundreds of undead creatures fighting the brood! and countless more undead staggered out of the thick fog.
Around the brood, a dozen or so mostly wounded swift beasts were fighting to the death with ten times the number of undead creatures. Although these undead are low-level skeletons and zombies, it is difficult for the Swift Beasts to repel them whether they bite or pounce, and breaking an arm or tibia will not affect the undead at all, unless they are completely shattered. The Brood's acid or acid mist attacks have limited effect on the undead, and although the bones are corroded and sneering and blackening, it will take some time for them to become incapacitated, and it is easier to cut them with the little blades.
The battlefield is on the edge of a swamp, full of mud, and the speed advantage of the Velociraptor is difficult to use in this terrain. One by one, skeletons and zombies pounced on the swift beasts. The body of the velociraptor beast had been consumed to the limit, and seeing that it was overwhelmed again, dozens of skeletons and zombies surged together, completely pressing the velociraptor into the mud.
The huge body of the brood is crawling with skeletons and zombies, and it is surrounded by at least a hundred undead creatures. However, the attack power of low-level undead creatures is quite limited, and they are not able to inflict substantial damage on the brood for the time being, nor can they break through the hedge's hard-to-stone shell.
Where are so many undead creatures?
"Brood, stop releasing acid mist!" Richard quickly judged that the acid mist did little damage to the undead, but he made his group afraid to approach the area around the brood.
However, at this moment, a strong mental fluctuation suddenly came from the depths of the swamp, and it fell directly on the body of the mother nest. The brood immediately halted and screamed in pain. And Richard, who was connected to the soul of the brood, also felt as if a needle had been pierced in his consciousness, as if a white light swept through his mind, and his brain seemed to be emptied in an instant, such a feeling was just a moment, all the contracts in his consciousness suddenly lit up, and the white light immediately split into several strands, and Richard immediately regained consciousness, leaving only a little residual pain to show that it was not an illusion.
This is the magic of the spirit department, the spirit whip moss!
At the moment when the mother-hive's consciousness was blank, another mental fluctuation came from the depths of the swamp, and this time the mother-hive lost control of her body in an instant. Although it was only a brief moment before the brood returned to normal, Richard sensed the essence of the latter mental turmoil.
In the hands of many great magicians who are proficient in spiritual magic, this is the prelude to the control of the magic pet, and the next step is magic slavery.
It's just that the brood is connected to Richard's soul, and Richard is connected to the splash through the guò soul contract, as well as the four professionals who have signed the magic contract. If you want to control the nest, it is like controlling all the people, how is this possible? Richard himself is extremely strong-willed, Gangde's will is not much weaker than Richard's, and the will of the two-headed ogre and Oral is also not weak. However, in this attack, the most surprising thing was the splash!
This girl's thoughts have always been clean and simple, and her soul is as pure as a glass of white water, but when the control intention in the mental fluctuations is revealed, the water suddenly erupts like a volcano!
Her short jagged hair stood up without wind, and she opened her mouth to let out a silent scream, and a wisp of extremely pure killing intent suddenly burst out, going in the opposite direction along with the mental fluctuations, and counterattacking with unparalleled force! Although Richard was a little surprised, he did not hesitate to extend his spiritual power, and blasted like an accelerant to give birth to the killing intent even more violently.
There was a faint roar from the depths of the swamp, and then all the undead stood still for a moment before moving again, this time their movements were noticeably slower, and their attacks seemed disorganized, and there was no longer the original tight line and coordination.
A cold light flashed in Richard's eyes, and he gritted his teeth and said: "It seems that there is an undead master hiding here, and he actually wants to control the nest, his appetite is really not small, and he is bold enough!"
Richard stretched out his right hand and shouted, "Knife!"
An infantry knight had already delivered the nameless long knife to Richard. Quicksand walked over silently and reached out to wipe the long knife, so the blade immediately burned a faint flame.
Splash's eyes lit up, and he silently stretched out the guide of eternal sleep to the quicksand. Quicksand raised his eyes and looked at the girl before reaching out to spread the holy flame for the demon knife of the splash.
"This thing is good!" said Gonde, who exclaimed in admiration, cheekily reaching for his big axe. A moment later, everyone's weapons were ablaze. According to Quicksand, this flame can burn for about nine minutes, which is on par with her Divine Servant level.
At Richard's orders, the brood had crawled out of the edge of the swamp and slowly moved towards the crowd. Behind it, the yellow-green acid mist still condensed. The remaining ten-headed swift beasts also got rid of the entanglement of low-level undead creatures, and also began to move closer to Richard. As for all the worker bees, Richard had already seen their corpses in the mud.
Richard strode to the edge of the swamp, and with a flick of his long knife, he cut the two skeletons in two pieces and sliced open the belly of a zombie. With a bang, the skeletons and zombies were like being thrown into the oil barrels of Mars, and they burned violently! All the light golden divine fire on their bodies was burned to ashes in the blink of an eye, even the zombies that were only scratched.
"Listen to what's hidden inside, I'll give you one last chance, come out and surrender immediately!" Richard's voice echoed through the swamp under the effect of magic, stirring up echoes.
