Chapter 398: Battle of the Undead

The expedition team walked past the zombie lair for about an hour and a half, not far from the coordinates where the plane passage was located.

This expedition into the realm of the dead is already in its third day.

In three days, the expedition team investigated about 3,000 square kilometers of land in the southeast area of the plane passage in detail, and marked more than ten undead strongholds.

Because of the inability to replenish magic in the undead realm, and the monotonous color environment is particularly oppressive, which is not suitable for living people to stay for a long time, Richard plans to return to the Dawn Plane first and rest for a few days to start his next expedition.

As soon as they reached the passage, they heard a terrible cry in the distance, as if it had penetrated into the soul of a person.

"No, it's the Nine-Ring Magical Death Howl. Could it be that the coordinates of the plane passage have been discovered by the legendary undead? ”

Richard's knowledge of magic was so profound that even from a distance, he instantly recognized this iconic necromancy even if it was the first time he had seen it.

Death Cry is a large-area control magic, because of the distance, the aftermath of the magic is not very lethal, and there is no threat to the expedition team for the time being.

Richard forced himself to calm down, carefully analyzing whether the expedition had revealed any flaws?

"In the last three days, everyone has only done one move, and that is to hunt the three-headed dogs of hell. Killing the Three-Headed Hellhound is very fast and unnoticed by the other undead. According to common sense, it is impossible for the coordinates of the plane passage to be leaked, and it is more likely that a legendary-level undead war broke out nearby. ”

After three days of investigation, everyone found that the necromantic realm was not peaceful, and the conflict between the undead forces was very fierce, and the elimination rate was very high. Great battles often break out between the undead, far more brutal than the Dawn Plane.

Clashes between legendary undead are also common in the necromantic world.

After a little deliberation, everyone finally decided to go to the battle site to have a look.

After all, the battle site is not far from the plane gate, and if the danger is too high, Richard will also destroy the plane gate and seal the plane passage to completely solve this trouble.

Everyone walked more than ten kilometers in the direction of the howl of death, and came to the edge of the battlefield.

Richard cautiously looked over the battlefield and found two skeleton mages with four high-ranking skeleton warriors besieging a legendary ghost.

From the perspective of the battlefield, it should be the Skeleton Mage's side that has a greater advantage.

Under the command of the skeleton mage, there are about a thousand soldiers, who have surrounded the legendary ghosts and cooperated with the six high-level skeletons to fight. On the nearby battlefield, many scattered white bones were left, and the soul fire had basically been extinguished.

The Legendary Wraith, on the other hand, is alone, with few soldiers under his command, surrounded by the flames of death unleashed by the skeleton mage. If there is no external force, it is almost impossible to escape.

Judging from the course of the battle, the two skeleton mages have a high level of intelligence and can arrange some subtle tactics, while the legendary ghosts rely entirely on instinct and have a very simple thinking pattern.

Seeing the battle between the undead with their own eyes, Richard and the others cautiously lay on top of a boulder.

Skeletons and ghosts have little to no vision, and they can only rely on soul fluctuations to detect enemies. Now that they are in the middle of a battle again, they don't care about scouting at all.

The expedition team hiding more than a thousand meters away, whether it was a skeleton mage or a legendary ghost, was unaware.

A skeleton mage stretched out his hand and unleashed the Nine-Ring Magic Soul Binding, and a magical chain appeared out of thin air, instantly binding the legendary ghost and immobilizing it.

Soulbind is the nemesis of ghostly creatures, and even legendary spirits are still restrained by this spell.

The skeleton mage can release the magic of the nine rings, and I am afraid that it is not far from being promoted to a legend.

The creature of the skeleton mage is weaker than the necromancer at the same level. Moreover, the level of magical civilization in the necromantic realm is not high, magic communication is very difficult, and the necromancy mastered by the skeleton mage is not complete.

In the Dawn plane, necromancers have very obvious advantages and disadvantages because of their single mastery of magic, and they are often inferior to elemental mages of the same level.

Through close reconnaissance, Richard estimated that the nine-ring skeleton mage was a little worse than the eight-ring Wendinie.

Legendary Spirits, though trapped by Soul Binding, will not sit still. I saw a stream of blue light coming out of its body, and it instantly released the legendary magic death curse, and a magic rune was as fast as lightning, hitting the skeleton mage's chest.

Death Curse is a legendary spell that is much more powerful than Death Finger, and this magic can be determined by mental power, killing targets with lower mental power than the caster.

If the mental power is not passed, the spell effect will reflect off the caster. If you don't know the details of your opponent, unleashing this magic is a complete risk with your life.

For example, Richard's mental power may be slightly stronger than that of legendary first-order mages.

Undead creatures like ghosts are inherently very strong in spiritual power, and the spiritual power of ghosts of the first order of legends may exceed sixty points. Even a perverted magician like Richard is struck by this death curse, and it is estimated that he will die in Huangquan.

Although the skeleton mage's spiritual power is very high, it is still much worse than the legendary ghost, and he was cursed and killed by the legendary magic king in an instant, and the soul fire was extinguished.

Although the Skeleton Mage controlled the Legendary Ghost through Soul Binding, he forced out the Legendary Ghost's hole card and died in front of the Legendary Spirit.

As soon as the skeleton mage died, the Nine Rings Magic Soul Bind Technique began to disperse, and the magic chains turned into a cloud of green smoke.

Before the Legendary Wraith could breathe a sigh of relief, the four high-level skeleton warriors had already struck first, and they all released the Arrows of the Dead, almost dispersing the soul fire of the Legendary Wraith.

Attacked by four arrows of the dead, and almost dying, the legendary ghost did not bother to absorb the soul crystals dropped by the skeleton mage, and immediately turned around, trying to break out of the encirclement of the skeleton army.

Seeing that the legendary ghost was about to run, another skeleton mage commanded the army, and instantly released a stream of death fire. To strengthen the power of the Deathfire, a skeleton warrior descends one after another, releasing soul fire from the skull and igniting his own soul fire.

In an instant, hundreds of skeleton warriors burned their souls, strengthened the power of the fire of death, and burned the legendary spirits in all directions.

Compared to human armies, the armies of the undead have their own advantages and disadvantages.

The army of the undead is not afraid of death, does not know tiredness, and the large number of professionals is all advantages.

However, the intelligence structure of the undead army is simple, and undead creatures with intelligence are relatively rare, and an army with low intelligence will inevitably have many weaknesses.

Seeing that he couldn't break away from the encirclement set up by the skeleton mage, the legendary ghost turned around and released his eight-ring magical death emblem against the skeleton mage.

Despite their lack of intelligence, the Legendary Wraith knew who was the biggest threat to them, and targeted another skeleton mage.

Seeing that the magic rune was pasted up, and it was no longer possible to dodge, the skeleton mage immediately released the seven-ring magic substitution technique, and in the blink of an eye, a seventh-order skeleton warrior took the blow in his place, and the soul fire was extinguished on the spot.

In just ten minutes, under the witness of Richard, the legendary ghost successively released the Nine-Ring Magical Death Howl, the Legendary Magical Death Curse, and the Eight-Ring Magical Death Emblem, with a magic power consumption of more than 400 points.

Depending on the strength of the ghost's mana, these spells drain one-third of the legendary ghost's mana.

Before Richard and the others arrived, a fierce battle had broken out between the two sides, and the legendary ghost had already consumed five spells and killed hundreds of skeleton warriors.

The battle continues to this day, and the magic of the legendary ghost is less than half.

Dodging the death emblem, the skeleton mage very decisively unleashed the Seven Rings Magic Death Finger, firing a death ray at the legendary ghost.

The death ray was very fast, with a hint of cold, dead silence.

Sensing the danger, the legendary ghost immediately unleashed the six-ring magic death-proof enchantment to help him block the danger.

As soon as he blocked the Death Finger, the High Skeleton Warrior manipulated the Death Flame to surge up again.

Strands of death flames were like bones attached to the bones, wrapped around the legendary ghost, burning the soul of the legendary ghost in severe pain, and let out bursts of painful screams.

Undead creatures do not communicate with each other through sound, except for lichs and vampires, undead spirits such as corpses, skeletons, and ghosts no longer have vocal organs.

The communication between the undead mainly relies on soul fluctuations, which have been studied by the Harland Leader Mage Guild and found that it is essentially a special electromagnetic wave.

Mastering this electromagnetic wave, it is possible to figure out the language of the undead.

In fact, if you want to master the language of the undead, you don't need to be so troublesome, and if you learn the four-ring magic listening to the soul spell, you can also master the language of the undead.

Haaland has a necromancer inheritance, and there are a lot of necromancers recorded in the library, and the team participating in this expedition has a total of five magicians, all of whom are middle and high-level mages, and they have already mastered listening to the soul and can understand the language of the undead.

Due to the low IQ of the legendary ghost, the information transmitted from the soul fluctuation is very messy, and most of it is some meaningless wailing and crying.

Burned by the fire of death, the legendary ghost once again unleashed the Seven-Ring Magic Death Cloud Technique, releasing puffs of gray-white cloud smoke.

The skeleton soldiers who were wrapped in clouds and smoke fell down in the blink of an eye.

A large number of skeleton warriors died, and the remaining three high-level skeleton warriors struck one after another, pulling out the white bone bow and shooting three arrows of death.

Although the physical resistance of the Ghost creature is almost full, it is very restrained from melee classes. However, Skeleton Warriors also have certain spell abilities, and the arrows of death they shoot are inflicted with magic damage.

Seeing that the three arrows of death were coming, the legendary ghost had just been hit by the arrow of death, and almost the fire of the soul was scattered, this time he didn't dare to slack off at all, and hurriedly released the powerful four-ring magic arrow to rebound, blocking the three arrows of death.

The Skeleton Mage also began to organize his soldiers, unleashing a large magical death circle, once again taking control of the Legendary Spirit.

Unwilling to accept defeat, the legendary ghost once again unleashed a wide range of nine-ring magic death howls.

In an instant, a large number of low-level undead fell down, and the skeleton warriors not far from the legendary ghosts were basically dead.

By the time the battle had been fought, the Legendary Ghost's vitality was less than half, and his magic power was only about one-third left, which was less than four hundred points.

The skeletal side also suffered heavy losses, a nine-ring skeleton mage, a seven-ring skeleton warrior were killed in battle, and nearly half of the more than 1,600 skeleton troops were killed or wounded.

The hiding place of Richard and the others was not far from the battlefield, and they felt the power of the death howl up close, and everyone present broke out in a cold sweat.

In order to avoid being detected by the undead at war, Richard and the others did not use the power of the spell, and completely relied on magic resistance to block the aftermath of the spell.

Relying on the Howl of Death to break the magic array, the legendary ghost was just about to escape the encirclement, and the three high-level skeleton warriors threw out a chain of white bones.

The white bone chains are accompanied by black demonic fire, firmly binding the blue phantom of the legendary ghost. The temperature of the magic was extremely high, and puffs of white smoke were emitted from the burning of the blue ghost.

Seeing that he couldn't get out of the trap, the legendary ghost once again unleashed a nine-ring magic death decree, directly killing a high-level skeleton warrior. Then he unleashed an eight-ring magical soul storm on another high-level skeleton warrior, blowing away the enemy's soul fire in one fell swoop.

Two high-level magic spells have been released in a row, and the magic power of the legendary ghost has about two hundred points left.

The battle continues to this day, and despite the heavy casualties on the skeleton side, victory is just around the corner.

In fact, the Ghost is a spell unit in the undead creatures, which is more difficult to deal with than skeletons, zombies, and the like. Although the Legendary Wraith is a little worse than the Legendary Mage, it is far more powerful than the Legendary Knight.

This kind of biological physical resistance is almost full, and the physical attack methods mastered by the army have almost no way against them, even a regular legion cannot deal with legendary ghosts, and this undead creature with the highest physical resistance can only use the mage group to fight.

The reason why the battle is like this is entirely because the legendary ghost is not very intelligent, and the battle completely relies on instinct, almost a headache for the doctor, a pain for the feet, and the battle process is completely to put down the gourd and pick up the scoop.

If the opponent is a lich with intelligence, the outcome of this battle will be completely changed.

Although his companions were dead, the last of the high-level skeleton warriors was still fiercely pulling the bone chains.

These four skeleton warriors have been wiped out by the skeleton mage and reduced to the skeleton mage's combat tools, and their mission is to consume the magic power and life force of the legendary ghost. In the course of the battle, their mission was completed very successfully.

Seeing that he still couldn't escape, the Legendary Wraith unleashed a soul storm once again, killing the last of the high-level skeleton warriors. After releasing the Eight Rings Magical Soul Storm again, the Legendary Ghost's magic power was about to run out, and there were only about one hundred and twenty points left.

Although the skeleton mage lost his companions, the high-level skeleton warriors also died, and the undead army under his command lost half. But there are still about 700 subordinates, there are still four mid-level skeleton mages, and there are still fifteen middle-level skeleton warriors, and the odds of victory are already assured.

Without magic, the Legendary Ghost has become a fish on the board. Under the tentative attack of the skeleton mage, the last hundred and twenty points of mana were quickly completely drained.
