Chapter 41: A New Relationship
What Nicholas didn't know was that the reason why Locke didn't react to the deterrence of his king was not because of Locke's talent, but because of the effect of the mysterious stele refined in Locke's soul fire.
Deterrence is an attack at the soul level, and when Locke refines the mysterious stele, his suppressed soul can resist negative attacks from the soul side.
Of course, Nicholas's is not a misunderstanding of Locke. The fusion of Locke's soul with Zhang Feng from the earth is naturally different from ordinary undead creatures, that is, its extremely high intelligence is not comparable to other middle and low-level undead creatures, and it is naturally a special undead creature.
Nicholas ignored Locke's words and didn't care about Locke's servant contract at all. After Locke handed over a wisp of soul fire, he completely made a contract oath like other lord-level existences, becoming another subordinate of Nicholas, and the only subordinate below the lord level among the several subordinates of Nicholas the Golden Skull King.
The moment he completed the contract oath, Locke felt that the contract connection between himself and the Bone Dragon Lord had been broken, which meant that the original servant contract had been terminated.
Locke was originally a servant of the contract, and the moment he completed a new contract with the Golden Skeletron, Locke was equivalent to breaking the contract relationship with the Bone Dragon Lord. Breaking the contract, Locke will also suffer from the backlash of the contract rules, but the backlash of the servant contract rules does not affect Locke, but on the new contract object.
The rule backlash of the servant contract has no effect on the Golden Skeletron King at all, even if the rule backlash is ten times more serious and a hundred times worse, it will not bring the slightest harm to the Golden Skeletron.
Sensing the disappearance of the servant contract, Locke was naturally extremely excited. Without the constraints of the servant contract, it means that Locke is free.
However, the signing of the subordinate contract also seemed to bring new shackles to Locke.
Locke was able to sense the secret connection between himself and Skeletron Gold and several other lord-level beings. This connection is extremely weak, if there is none, the closer the distance, the closer the connection, Locke felt that the contractual connection between himself and the Golden Skull and the other three lord-level beings was clearer at this time, while the connection between the other undead creatures and himself was much weaker.
Locke naturally knew that these undead creatures who had a contractual connection with him naturally had the same contractual relationship with the golden skeleton in front of him. Moreover, these undead creatures must all be lord-level existences.
Judging from the closeness of this contract, Locke can naturally speculate that once he is too far away from other lord-level existences with contracts, this kind of contract will be useless, and it may even be equivalent to no longer exists as long as he leaves the vicinity of the Skull Sea.
After signing this contract, Locke also understood the binding nature of this contract from the information conveyed by the contract. To sum up, there are only three constraints.
First, the creatures that sign this pact belong to the same faction and cannot conflict with each other.
The second is that within the scope of the contract, in the face of foreign enemies, we must join forces to fight.
Third, the main body of the contract, that is, the golden skeleton, has the right to dominate the entire camp, which means that the other party's orders within the scope of the contract, Locke also has to obey.
The Golden Skeletron, after the contract was completed, immediately left Locke, and rode the bone dragon Gregory and disappeared into Locke's soul perception in an instant, so fast that even Locke didn't have time to sense it.
For Nicholas, it was enough to complete the contract oath with Locke, and he didn't have time to delay Locke, there were still quite a few lord-level beings in the area around the Sea of Skulls.
Although Locke is special enough, but now Locke's strength is still too weak to enter the eyes of Nicholas at all, the Golden Skeleton King values Locke's future, and maybe he will be a powerful Skeleton King in the future.
And with Locke's current strength level, it will be a long process to be promoted to the level of Skeleton King.
Nicholas is looking for more lord-level existences, and it is also not for a lord-level combat power, but also for the hope that these high-level undead creatures with higher talent and the possibility of becoming the existence of the Sanctuary can fight for themselves in the future. Moreover, the massive number of undead creatures born in the Sea of Skulls also need to be managed, and having these lord-level existences to manage is also beneficial to the growth of their own power.
When Nicholas left, Locke was still immersed in the newly signed contract.
After knowing the binding nature of this subordinate contract, Locke did not regret signing such a contract in the slightest. In Locke's view, the constraints of the subordinate contract happen to be a talisman for himself near the Sea of Skulls.
With Locke's current strength, he is no longer afraid of cyber creatures below the lord level. And the lord-level existences near the Skull Sea will basically sign a subordination contract with the Golden Skeleton and become the existence of the same camp as themselves, in this case, these lord-level existences will not only not be able to attack themselves, but if they encounter other dangers, they can also ask for help if they encounter other dangers and encounter lord-level existences of the same camp.
As for his strength in the future, he will be strong enough to leave the Sea of Skulls, and the constraints of the contract on him will naturally disappear.
It can be said that the signing of the subordinate contract not only did not bring him constraints, but also allowed him to cancel the servant contract with the bone dragon lord.
After a little meditation and recovery, Locke continued to study the necromancy of weakness.
"Well, fourth-level undead. Two days later, Locke, who was constantly casting a weakness spell on a zero-level undead creature, suddenly sensed that an undead creature appeared a hundred meters away, and it was also a mid-level undead creature.
In an instant, Locke stopped his research on the Technique of Weakness and headed for the mid-level undead creature that appeared in his mind and perception. This was the first time that Locke had encountered a mid-level undead creature in more than a month.
The appearance of this mid-level undead creature also made Locke realize that a large number of mid-level undead creatures should have been born nearby at this time, and the time he had been waiting for should be ripe.
During this time, the reason why Locke spent a lot of time studying necromancy, which had almost no applicability in the world of the undead, was to pass the time by waiting for the hunt.
When Locke discovered this fourth-level undead creature, the other party also discovered Locke. After all, they are also fourth-level undead creatures, and their souls can sense everything within a radius of more than 100 meters.
This fourth-level undead creature was an existence that came out of the light curtain of the Skull Sea, and it had only been a few months since it was born.
In the past few months, it has been killing all the way, constantly devouring the soul fire of the same level, and in a short period of time, it has devoured a large number of soul fires, and has been promoted to become an intermediate undead creature.
At the same time as he sensed Locke's level, he pounced towards Locke's location just like Locke.
There are no special circumstances, and there is no reason to be humble and friendly when encountering undead creatures of the same level. Moreover, this fourth-level undead creature had already killed other fourth-level undead creatures before encountering Locke.
However, this newly born mid-level undead creature met Locke, and the end was destined to be devoured by Locke's soul fire.
In an instant, Locke and this fourth-level undead creature crossed a distance of more than a hundred meters and collided together.
"There was a bang. The powerful impact knocked this mid-level undead creature out of the air in an instant, and Locke was not affected in any way.
This mid-level undead creature was extremely injured under Locke's impact, and fell to the ground and struggled continuously.
After all, Locke's bones were much stronger than him, and both his weight and the speed of impact far exceeded that of this fourth-level undead creature, and he also had sharp bone spurs on his body.
Coming to the undead creature that fell to the ground, Locke made this peer creature lose the ability to struggle with another blow, and by the way, swallowed its soul fire into his body.
The soul fire of a fourth-level undead creature merged into his soul fire, and Locke felt that his soul fire had increased to a certain extent, and the spiritual power consumed by practicing undead magic before also recovered in this instant.
"It looks like I'm going to be able to qualify soon. Locke thought to himself.
