Chapter Seventy-Seven: Gathering the City Lord's Mansion

Wielding a heavy sword, Locke also practiced only a few of the simplest basic moves. However, even if it is just an ordinary slash, the inertia brought by the extremely high weight of the heavy sword can exert a power far beyond that of the thin sword.

When practicing epee, Locke could also feel that his physical exertion was much faster than when he practiced Rapier before, and of course, it was not as much as the physical exertion when Locke did that.

Locke practiced the heavy sword with the aim of being able to wield the heavy sword as freely as an arm. An afternoon passed, and Locke's progress was not much, after all, the heavy sword and the rapier were different, and Locke did not have the memory of Ealing practicing the long sword, so his progress was naturally not as fast as when he practiced the alchemy long sword.

However, Locke didn't think about it, only practiced for a day or a few days, Locke planned that only if he had the opportunity, he would practice a heavy sword technique, and he believed that after a lot of practice, his actual combat power would be greatly improved. For human warriors, the skills of having weapons and not having weapons, all have a great impact on their actual combat ability.

It was close to midnight that Locke stopped practicing his sword.

When night falls, it will be another time for Locke to raise the fire of his soul.

After dinner, Locke spent an hour meditating and restoring his mental power to its prime, and then he would begin to unleash the undead summoning creatures again. In fact, after the mage's mental power is consumed, even if he does not meditate, he will recover slowly, and meditation only speeds up the process of spiritual power recovery by several times or even ten times.

After a few hours, Locke stopped summoning the undead. In less than an hour, Locke had summoned a total of four fifth-level undead creatures.

At this time, most of Locke's spiritual power and the fire that devoured the soul of the undead creature were restored, but the undead magic power in Locke's body was powerless to summon the fifth one after summoning four undead creatures.

After half a day of practice, Locke still had some gains, under the great difference in strength, several undead creatures, as soon as they were summoned, were all defeated by Locke's blow, and before they could react, they easily devoured the soul fire of several undead creatures.

Tonight, Locke had a much better chance of releasing the Undead to summon than he had done the previous two. Undead summoning is not a difficult kind of undead magic, and it is not difficult to cast it successfully, whether it is for the necromancer or for Locke.

The magic power of Locke's fifth-level necromancer can almost summon seven beings of the same level, which is much more than the undead magic stored in the body of the previous necromancer of the same level.

It was another soul fire that devoured many existences of the same level, and Locke's spiritual power naturally increased a lot again. After Locke summoned four existences of the same level, he still had more than half of his spiritual power, and there was also a reason why Locke's mental power was much stronger than last night.

Previously, after Locke's mana was consumed, Locke did not swallow the undead alchemy potion to recover quickly, but was preparing to enter the altar space and absorb the dead qi released by the bones in the altar space.

After the stone tablet in the body appeared, the corpses of the shattered undead creatures on the ground were instantly incorporated into the altar space by Locke.

Then, Locke's mind moved, and the stele was placed by Locke in an inconspicuous corner of the room. Of course, Locke then picked up the cloth on the couch and covered the two-meter-high stele.

As soon as the thought moved, a passage to the altar space appeared in front of Locke.

After entering the altar space, Locke began to seize the time to refine the dead qi escaping from these bones in the altar space.

As Locke absorbed, a trace of dead air was integrated into Locke's body, and Locke's exhausted undead magic power was also recovering at a slow speed.

Unlike meditation, Locke's consciousness is still able to perceive everything around him.

The death qi in the body of a fifth-level undead creature is almost equivalent to the death qi in Locke's body in his heyday, and in the altar space, there are more than ten bones of fifth-level undead creatures, some of which were summoned by Locke during this time, and some were randomly collected by Locke when he was on the undead plane. There are also some fragmentary bones of low-level undead creatures and bones of sixth-level undead creatures, and the whole is added to everything, and the undead energy contained in it is theoretically almost enough for Locke to recover dozens of times of undead magic.

However, this is only a theory, if the undead are too thin, there is no way to draw Locke's strength. The altar space is extremely large, and the death qi released by only a few dozen bones is still too small compared to the huge altar space, and in a short period of time, the number of corpses collected by Locke is too small, and there is no time to transform it into a large amount of dead qi for Locke to absorb.

The night was about to pass quickly, and after nearly ten hours, Locke found that the magic power in his body had only recovered by more than a tenth, and the small amount of magic in Locke's body was not enough to summon an undead creature of the same level. At this rate, it would take about four or five days to continuously absorb mana before it could fully recover its own mana.

Locke calculated that it was almost dawn, so he didn't continue, and as soon as his mind moved, the passage to the altar space was opened again, and Locke appeared in the room.

"It seems that if I want to quickly recover the mana consumed in my body, I need to collect more corpses. Locke thought to himself. At this time, Locke couldn't help but feel a little nostalgic for the rich dead aura in the undead plane. Undead creatures in the world of the undead, there is almost no danger of running out of mana, after the magic power of medium and low-level undead creatures is consumed, they don't even need to deliberately absorb mana to recover, and the surrounding rich dead qi will spontaneously pour into the body to replenish the consumption.

Sensing the consumption of magic power in his body, Locke took out one of the bottles of alchemy potion from the magic bag that was less than half left, and swallowed it all. With the swallowing of the alchemy potion, Locke also felt that the elixir was transformed into a rich death qi and integrated into his bones, and the magic power in his body was also rapidly recovering, and the speed was far from being comparable to Locke's absorption of death qi.

Soon, the surging magic in Locke's body stopped, which meant that all the alchemical potions that Locke had taken had been transformed into undead magic and integrated into Locke's body.

"It's almost ninety percent back. Locke estimated the recovery of the magic in his body, and had a number in his mind.

Time flickered, and another two days passed.

In the blink of an eye, Locke had been in Bahu's mansion for a week.

For the next two days, Locke spent most of his time practicing epee, and during these two days, Locke occasionally traveled to secretly find out if there were more corpses there.

The hard work paid off, and under Locke's exploration, Locke did probe several places where there might be a lot of corpses. Of course, such a place is not in the city, so Locke did not immediately go to those places to collect the body.

Two days later, Locke, who was practicing his sword, was invited by the City Lord's Mansion, of course, as the son of a nobleman like Yilin, who had lost power, naturally would not receive much attention from the City Lord's Mansion, and Locke was just one of the many invited nobles.

As night fell, Locke followed the fourth uncle and his party towards the City Lord's Mansion. This time he was invited to the City Lord's Mansion, and Locke only brought a middle-level warrior, as for his sister Rowling and other subordinates, Locke did not bring it.

This time, the invited nobles are all nobles with titles in Damo City, and of course, these nobles can also bring some subordinate guards.

The City Lord's Mansion is much larger than Zhi Bahu's mansion, more than dozens of times larger than Zhi Bahu's mansion, and it is also the largest building in Damo City. The entire City Lord's Mansion belongs to the Han family, and it is also the main home of the Han family.

After Locke followed Bahu into the City Lord's Mansion, he was led away by the servants of the Han family.

"Yilin, you have come to Da Mo City, and the interests of Da Mo City naturally have your share, and this gathering should involve the division of interests. As he walked, Bahu revealed to Locke the true purpose of the gathering.

Soon, Locke and Bahu were taken to a side hall in the City Lord's Mansion.

In the side hall, there have been more than a dozen nobles from various families in Damo City, all of whom are like Bahu, who have a lot of power and have a title, and they are basically intermediate warriors or intermediate mages, of course, there are also ordinary people.

Locke waited for more than half an hour before all the nobles invited by Da Mo City arrived at the City Lord's Mansion. As for the nobles gathered in the side hall, except for a few Locke who had met at the banquet, none of the other Locke knew him.

At this moment, from the door on the side of the hall, a slender young man walked out, followed by a young warrior wearing alchemy armor on one side, and an old man in a purple robe on the other side.
