Chapter 45: Locke's Purpose
If the alchemy potion that Yi Lin obtained that can enhance the Dou Qi in his body is used on an intermediate warrior at the peak of the sixth level, there is a high chance that the Dou Qi will turn into liquid and break through the limit, and even if a high-level warrior takes it, it can also greatly enhance the Dou Qi in his body, saving him years of penance.
Although it was a waste to take such an alchemy potion with Yi Lin's strength level, in order to be able to enhance his strength as soon as possible and get through this difficult period, Yi Lin still ignored the waste of the medicinal effect, and it took more than a month to refine it after dilution, and Yi Lin's strength also reached the limit of an intermediate warrior as he wished.
This time, when he was attacked and killed by a necromancer, Yilin also greatly increased his strength and became more secure.
Wounding a skeleton creature with a sword was also expected by Ilyin, and at the same time gave Ilyin confidence.
Yi Lin knew that the best way to face a necromancer was to kill him at close range rather than entangle with the undead creatures he summoned. However, at this time, he had lost the opportunity and was entangled by several skeleton creatures, and Yi Lin also had absolute confidence in his own strength, and he was not worried that he would be the opponent of several fifth-level skeleton creatures, so Yi Lin planned to deal with the necromancer's summoned creatures first, and then solve the necromancer.
Moreover, Ilyin didn't think about killing the necromancer immediately, but at least captured him and tortured him about which of his brothers had sent him, and it was better to gather evidence of his brother's collusion with the necromancer.
Because in most realms, necromancers can only hide in the shadows, and once they appear, they will be surrounded and suppressed by almost all the power of the nobility and the power of the church.
Of course, even so, it is impossible for the necromancer to be completely eliminated, and it is easy to obtain a strong power and a long lifespan, even the nobles can hardly resist the temptation, let alone the commoner slaves from the bottom.
In front of the necromancer, three skeleton creatures surrounded Ilyin and continued to attack Illin. At the same time, the necromancer in the rear is constantly turning to Yilin's mania with negative spells, that is, curse-like necromancy, to weaken Yilin's strength.
However, the huge gap in strength still tilted the balance of victory in favor of powerful warriors.
The first injured skeleton warrior, after fighting for a few minutes, lost the power to resist under the attack of Yilin, and a burst of white light flashed, leaving only a small half of the skeleton creature with broken bones, and most of the remaining body returned to the undead plane with the soul fire through the contract connection with the undead plane.
At this time, only Locke and another wolf-shaped skeleton creature were besieging and pinning down Ilyin, and this wolf-shaped skeleton creature was already in a half-crippled state under Ilyin's attack, and only Locke still maintained a complete skeleton. This is also because Locke has been using the bodies of his two companions to dodge the swords of powerful warriors.
But now, his shield is almost useless, and next, his situation is much more dangerous.
In this short period of time, Locke also tried to attack not less than ten times, but they were all easily dodged by the opponent, and Locke couldn't keep up with the opponent in terms of speed. Compared with skeleton creatures, the speed of human beings is undoubtedly much more dexterous and fast, even if Locke's speed is not weaker than that of ordinary sixth-level skeleton creatures, there is still a big gap compared to this human sixth-level warrior.
Locke was still a little surprised by the other party's sensitive reaction speed. However, compared to Locke, Ilyin and another fifth-level necromancer were also a little surprised. Locke's strength also exceeded the expectations of the two, especially the necromancer, who knew a lot about summoning undead creatures, and Locke's strength was obviously beyond the other beings of the same level that he had summoned.
However, this necromancer also saw that Locke was only superior to the other two undead creatures in dexterity, and in battle, he was still at an absolute disadvantage, and he didn't dare to touch the long sword with the blessing of fighting energy.
"It seems that if you want to hit the opponent now, you can only counterattack when the opponent's long sword hits you. Seeing that the situation was becoming more and more unfavorable, Locke's mind turned for a while.
Locke's body is only composed of bones, even if the bones are broken or broken, they can be easily connected, but the other party is flesh and blood, once he is hit by himself, the injury is definitely heavier than himself, in terms of defense, the undead creatures are no worse than the flesh and blood humans, and they are also human warriors who have no chance to wear defensive equipment.
Just as Locke was thinking about what to do next, suddenly, the necromancer had a new move.
When he threw several curse-type negative magic onto Illin, he took out a bottle of potion from his bosom, which was a precious potion that replenished the magic of the undead. With one mouth, the bottle was drunk by the necromancer.
"Call of the Dead. As the necromancer's spell was ready, another burst of white light flashed, and three undead creatures appeared beside Locke. The three undead creatures are all level 5 undead creatures, two of them are skeleton creatures, and the other is a level 5 zombie.
With three more companions, Locke and his party were surrounded by five undead creatures, and the pressure was greatly reduced.
Necromancer summoning is the necromancer's housekeeping skill, and it is also the primary reason why the necromancer can skip the level of challenge, and such a powerful magic consumption will naturally not be less, every time it is cast, it will consume a lot of magic and spiritual power. Mana can also be quickly replenished through alchemy potions, while the consumption of mental power can only be restored through meditation.
It's not that there are alchemy potions that can restore mental power, but they are too precious, even the worst elixirs that restore mental power are also the best among high-grade elixirs, and the price is far higher than ordinary high-grade elixirs. Such a precious alchemy potion, let alone an intermediate mage, even an ordinary high-level mage, is difficult to obtain.
Therefore, after casting the undead summon twice in a row, this fifth-level necromancer had a problem even standing normally because of the excessive consumption of mental power. The necromancer did not care about the danger, and immediately began to meditate in the corner to restore his mental strength.
Locke and his party of undead creatures also received the necromancer's order again at this time, which was to drag Ilyin and prevent him from having a chance to get close to him.
Unlike other undead creatures, Locke didn't use his full strength in battle, and in addition to showing dexterous speed, attack, defense, and magical talent, Locke didn't really show it.
The reason why this is the case, Locke naturally has his own mind. Unlike other summoned undead creatures, Locke is far more intelligent than his companions, and Locke has his own purpose, which is to take this opportunity to stay in this world.
Undead creatures that are summoned to the Outer Plane also have the right to choose whether to stay or not. Of course, almost all undead creatures will choose to return to the undead plane after being summoned, with very few exceptions. Moreover, responding to the call of the contract is also beneficial for the undead creatures, the middle and low-level undead creatures will instinctively respond to the call from the heterotop, and the high-level undead creatures with high intelligence can also learn this information from the inheritance, and generally make the same choice.
When Locke responded to the call of the contract, he had already made up his mind to stay in the alien plane, and by refining the mysterious stone tablet to obtain the stone tablet information, Locke was also sure enough to integrate into the alien plane.
Because, the sacrificial function of the flesh altar allows Locke to sacrifice souls and obtain the flesh and blood of the sacrificer. The former skeleton ancestor used this method of sacrifice to replace the identity of a disciple of the Xiuzhen sect and mixed into the Xiuzhen sect.
When Locke was summoned, Locke had already chosen the target of the sacrifice, which was the human warrior in front of him.
At present, for Locke, the most important thing is to deal with the necromancer who summons him, and then he has a chance to get what he wants. However, since the necromancer is Locke's summoner and has a connection to the undead plane contract with Locke, Locke cannot take action against him.
Therefore, Locke can only use the hand of Ilyin to kill the necromancer, or repel the necromancer, and then he will have a chance to attack Illin.
During the Great War, Locke had been hiding behind several undead creatures, using each other as his shield to fend off Ealing's attacks, protecting himself from damage while also draining the necromancer's strength.
