Chapter 7: The Thunder Family's Mission

This is already very unpleasant, but the people who can break into here are, of course, experienced, strong, and some city governments, so no one spoke for a while.

And when Leo heard the word corpse witch, he finally understood why the Thunder family was so popular.

Because it was introduced in a certain book, it was indeed a rather difficult necromantic creature to deal with.

Unlike lichs, corpse witches do not transform autonomously, but rather have the ability to cast spells, such as mages, warlocks, wizards, and even priests, who passively transform after death.

Because their souls are much more powerful than ordinary creatures, after death, the souls do not dissipate immediately, but remain in the main material world for a short time.

During this period, if there is an abundance of negative energy, and if the soul has a fierce grudge, a very special change will occur.

The soul transforms from its original life form to a necromantic form, and then reoccupies its lost body and becomes a corpse witch. They are able to retain a certain amount of intelligence and sanity during their lifetime, but they are affected by the negative consciousness of Yan zhòng, so all corpse witches are extremely evil.

Souls that can be transformed into corpse witches are often strong-willed and extremely selfish. They hate any living creature because of their own death, and are more than happy to seek out living creatures and kill them.

The Corpse Witch resembles its former appearance, and as time passes, its image slowly fades into obscurity, and it is barely able to make out its human form. Because of their powerful souls, they will also obtain several powerful necromantic spells, and control the low-level necromantic creatures around them.

The most famous of these spells is the "Death Howl", which once the recipient is directly hit, the soul will be expelled from the body by a terrifying howl, directly leading to death.

But......

Leo clearly remembers that the book specifically mentions that the Corpse Witch is very fond of collecting things with great power......

Just as he pondered. When it was more likely that he would find the material he needed, the man said, "Charlotte, can you go get me a cup of black tea?"

His voice is soft, but magnetic and irresistibly persuasive.

Of course, the girl knew that the man wanted to break himself up, and puffed out his cheeks: "Brother!

The man smiled and said, "But I prefer the tea I brewed myself." ”

Under his gentle gaze, the girl raised her hand in surrender and walked away sullenly.

When the girl disappeared into the room, the man looked around. He spoke again: "My sister is my father's youngest daughter, and some of them are spoiled, I'm sorry to make everyone laugh." ”

The bald man pursed his lips and said, "I'm not here to listen to this. ”

"Of course, Mr. Toffman, I'm not here to say that. The man nodded to the strong man and continued, "But there are people here who know me, and there are people who don't. So I'll start with an introduction. ”

"My name is Demon Thunder, I am the sixth heir of the Thunder family, a level 5 Thunder bloodline warrior, you can call me Demon directly. Just that little sister of mine, Charlotte Thunder. He is the 18th heir to the family and a level 4 Thunder Bloodline Warlock. ”

As soon as the words fell, the woman in the black robe suddenly said in a somewhat hoarse voice, "Please tell me about the corpse witch." ”

Knowing that this was what everyone cared about the most, Demont smiled and responded, "Okay." According to what the family has learned, the Corpse Witch appeared half a year ago and was transformed by an unknown necromancer. The man wanted to enter the Death Tunnel to collect the spirits. But for some unknown reason, he lost his life inside. ”

Hearing him say this, Leo's hanging heart finally relaxed. He couldn't imagine what he would have done if that corpse witch was his teacher, Byron.

After a slight pause, Demont continued: "It is said that the level of the corpse witch was level 4 during his lifetime, but after the successful transformation, his strength has greatly improved. As a result of his appearance, the area of influence of the Death Tunnel has greatly increased, and it has now expanded to a radius of twenty kilometers, almost extending beyond the canyon. This poses a serious threat to the security of the surrounding area, so we decided to go to the Death Tunnel and solve this trouble once and for all. ”

"What good can we gain from such a dangerous thing?" asked Iron Fist this time.

If it weren't for the fact that he knew that his profession was a paladin, it would be hard for Leo to imagine that a paladin, who had been educated in strict discipline since childhood, would ask such a question.

Dermon obviously knew Iron Fist as well, and was not surprised, but replied without hesitation: "Since you have come, you must know the preferences of the corpse witch, and you also know that there are many strange things in the death tunnel. And all the proceeds of this operation belong to the discoverers themselves, and what is found collectively is also divided equally by everyone, and the family does not receive any compensation. ”

"What we got should not have been taken by you. The half-elf said in a flirtatious tone.

Demon glanced at the half-elf, shook his head and said, "Of course, the benefits are not so much, if you succeed in killing the corpse witch, each of you will also be able to obtain a simulated thunder bloodline from our Thunder Family." ”

"What's that?" someone asked.

Demont explained: "It is a potion that the family has just successfully developed not long ago, and it is made from the blood of family members, which can give the user a certain chance to obtain a part of the ability of the Thunder Bloodline. ”

Everyone didn't expect it to be this kind of thing, and the room was silent for a while. Among them, the strong men and half-elves who knew a lot about the Thunder Family were even more surprised. Neither of them has any bloodline, and naturally has an incomparable desire for bloodline.

At the same time, they also all know that the bloodline of the Thunder Family is of very high quality and completeness, and there will be many strong people in almost every generation. Even in the first two generations, there were legends. And the core ability in the Thunder Bloodline, the power of Thunder, is quite strong, if you can have this ability, then it is not a little bit to improve your strength.

There is no doubt that this is a very sincere reward.

As for the simulated thunder bloodline in Demon's mouth, how to make it, no one will care.

At this time, Xia Luo walked in with a teacup, and when she saw that there was no movement in the room, she couldn't help but wonder: "Brother." What's wrong with them?"

Demon smiled and did not answer, but waited for everyone to respond.

Leo himself has red dragon blood, and he is a mage, so he is not so eager for this thing, at most he has some research interests. Moreover, from the words of the other party, it can be judged that this so-called simulated bloodline is not the true essence of the bloodline, but only the possibility of awakening certain abilities. It's really dispensable.

Therefore, his thinking was still clear, and he groaned slightly, and then said: "I have a question, your family is extremely powerful, why don't you organize your own people to eradicate the corpse witch, but borrow us outsiders?"

Hearing him say this, the expressions of the half-elf and the strong man all quickly recovered, and they were faintly vigilant. Obviously, this question is really puzzling.

Demont was about to speak, but Charlotte next to him preemptively said: "If we can mobilize the strength of the family, why are we looking for you? Now the family's forces are concentrated in the west, guarding against ......"

"Charlotte!" Demont interrupted suddenly, his expression stern for the first time.

Only then did the girl realize that she seemed to have said something that she shouldn't have said. He stuck out his tongue and took two steps back, hiding from Demon's gaze.

Demont smiled bitterly, "Everyone. The eradication of the lich is supposed to have nothing to do with you, but the family really can't spare manpower right now, so I have to invite you to act together. ”

Opened to his mind by Leo's question, Iron Fist also had his own thoughts, and immediately said, "Then you can wait until you can draw out your manpower before acting." ”

Demont replied, "I'm afraid it will be difficult in a short period of time, and the corpse witch will only get more and more difficult to deal with as time goes by, so we must do our best." But rest assured, the family will send a cavalry squad to accompany us. ”

"Then what you're talking about......" said the half-elf tentatively, apparently he had more to do with that.

Demon said categorically: "I can use the credibility of the Thunder Family to guarantee that before I set off, I will also sign a contract with you to ensure that nothing goes wrong." ”

The half-elf squinted his eyes and looked at Demon carefully, and after a while, he made up his mind and said, "Okay, I believe in you, I will join in this matter." ”

With him taking the lead, the strong man no longer hesitated, and said in the same loud voice: "And me!"

The black-robed woman next to him seemed to hesitate for a moment, and finally nodded.

At the moment, only Leo and Tekken have not taken a stand.

Actually, Iron Fist already had a plan in mind, but he still wanted to see what Leo meant first.

Demon's eyes naturally shifted to Leo's side, and he did not open his mouth to urge, showing an excellent upbringing. The girl behind him looked anxious, eager to step forward and open Leo's mouth.

Leo thought for a moment and said, "I have one last question, will this young lady follow us?"

"Yes, she will follow us in action. Charlotte's abilities are special and will be very helpful to us. Demont replied, of course he could see Leo's concern, and added: "But I will also be strict with her to make sure that there are no problems." ”

The girl wrinkled her nose in annoyance, not daring to say anything.

It can be seen that Demont should be a man of his word, Leo no longer hesitated, and said: "Okay, I'm fine, this matter is mine." ”

"Now that everyone has joined, how can you miss me, haha. Iron Fist smiled brightly.

Demont seemed to have expected this, and said with a smile as always: "Then please introduce yourself, so that we can have a preliminary understanding between ourselves, so that there will be no problems with cooperation, and it is convenient to specify tactics." ”

The strong man was an impatient, and immediately stood up and said, "My name is Toffman, a level 5 warrior!

The half-elf was the second to stand up: "I'm a level 5 longbow ranger, good at long-range attacks, and I'm good at assassination." I don't like my name, so whatever you call me, bastard, scum, I don't care, I'm just an illegitimate child anyway. ”

"His name is Bug. The strong man laughed, obviously familiar with the half-elves.

Then came the black-robed woman, who took off her hood and revealed a face as pale as a dead man, and said, "I don't have a name, but you can call me Gray Alfalfa, I am a priest by profession, level 6, I am good at spell art, but my healing ability is average. ”

Leo felt that this woman should be special, and at the moment I listened to her own introduction, and it was so.

He didn't even say his own beliefs, so it can be seen that the god he believes in is a secret god, and Leo guesses that it may be a negative energy god who is in charge of death and other priesthoods.

According to the order, it was Leo's turn, and he also stood up and said: "You can call me Mars, a level 4 mage, a specialist in the plastic energy faction, and good at fire element magic." ”

The previous few people didn't use their real names, so fortunately, he also reported his code name.

As soon as the words fell, the girl Charlotte suddenly shouted: "Great, the fire element, like lightning, has an extremely strong restraining effect on negative energy!"

Demont turned around and whispered, "Dear sister, can you please help me make another cup of tea?"

"Oops, can't I stop talking?" the girl stomped her foot, then closed her mouth firmly.

Finally, it was Iron Fist's turn, and he said in a rough voice: "Everyone calls me Iron Fist, a wandering knight of the Level 6 Tribulation Sect, who is good at using swords and shields for defense, hand-to-hand combat, and can heal injuries that are not too strict and cast some simple blessings. ”

"The staffing of the team is very good and it seems that the probability of success this time is very high. Demont said satisfied, "Then here today, please gather at the south gate of the town on time at 6 o'clock tomorrow morning, and we will try to complete the task within three days." ”

"The timing was just right. Leo nodded secretly, and stepped forward, ready to walk outside.

At this time, the half-elf called the worm suddenly pointed at the Valkyrie and said, "What about the woman? ”

Leo looked back and explained, "That's not a woman, that's my magic puppet." ”

"Well, it looks realistic, are you going to take it with you?" the half-elf asked again. After getting to know each other, he seems to be very willing to talk.

Leo didn't know what he meant, but he replied, "Yes, I'll take it with me." ”

The half-elf stared at the Valkyrie for a long time: "Not worried that it will get in the way?"

"No, it won't. Leo shook his head.

The next moment, Valkyrie took the teacup in his hand, and then threw it, and it landed on the armrest of the sofa accurately, and even the remaining half of the cup of black tea did not spill out. (To be continued......)
