Chapter 777: The Dragon Lich and the Dragon Cult

Gavin drank the wine in his hand and said, "The banquet begins." ”

At his command, the whole feast was up and running again, the crowd began to flow and talk, the bards began to sing, and the clowns began to perform again.

All of this is releasing a message to Gavin, a message of abundance and security.

Knowing that everything in front of them was an illusion, Gavin couldn't treat them as mere phantoms after staying here for a while, because everything here was so real, not only the feeling they felt, but also the way they interacted with them.

They are living individuals, with their own joys, sorrows, and memories, giving Gavin the impression that everything in front of him is not as simple as a simple illusion, but that he has really traveled through time and space and incarnated as Anka.

Gavin, who had traveled back in time, knew that it was impossible.

In Faerun, time is relatively stable, there are no time-related priesthoods and gods, and time-related magic is also rare, even if there are spells such as time standstill, they usually just operate themselves and let themselves enter an independent timeline for more than ten seconds or even tens of seconds.

On the contrary, there are confinement techniques, time stagnation, which are similar to time capsules, which make a person's state constant, and then span years, decades, or even centuries, and awaken again.

This is not strictly time magic, because it cannot be reversed, nor is it done instantaneously, and with the exception of a very small number of people, most of the recipients are not voluntary, but are victims of these spells.

It's more of a re-enactment of a situation through the power of magic.

As with all trials, the pace was intense, leaving Gavin with a rather limited amount of time to adjust to his identity, and as soon as he came to his conclusions, there was a huge commotion and exclamations on the other.

"What is this? Who are you? Why? ”

"Ah...... Killed...... Killed ......"

"This is a sacrificial summoning circle, and he is summoning an evil being."

"Bone Dragon...... He is a necromancer who is summoning bone dragons...... Ahhhh......h

"Ahhh......h I can't move, help me, I can't move, who will save me......"

"Dragon's breath, strong acid dragon's breath, this is not a bone dragon, this is a dragon lich transformed into a black dragon......"

"Run, Run......"

"Going to die, going to die......"

"Cloaked warriors, what are you waiting for? Now is the time for you to step forward, stop him, and don't let them hurt our people. ”

"Hold on, Lord Lords are coming."

"Your Excellency is here...... The lord is here......"

"Lord Lord, don't come here, this is a trap, this is a trap for you, you will die after you come, we will drag them down, you quickly take the people and escape!"

"Lord Anka, don't go ......"

Gavin didn't think about it and rushed towards the place where the riot had erupted, with all sorts of shouts along the way, and by the time he arrived, it had turned into an asura field, a complete one-sided slaughter.

The dragon lich that suddenly appeared in the crowd was a terrifying weapon to those ordinary lords in the valley, and its every move was full of terrifying lethality.

When it lifts its foot, it can trample a leader into pulp.

Its glaring can paralyze a consort of a consort.

Its tail sweep will make countless people fly around, either smashing into the crowd, knocking down several people, or falling heavily to the ground, some are pumped to death on the spot, and some have seriously twisted bodies, no matter which one it is, there is no way to get up from the ground in a short time.

The most terrifying thing is its dragon's breath, like a waterfall tens of meters long and several meters wide, pouring down, and the people in it let out a terrible and desperate scream.

What fell from the air was a strong acid, with a terrifying corrosiveness, not to mention flesh and blood, even those metal and wooden objects were corroded and creaked, and soon they were full of holes.

Whether it is the way the dragon's breath is displayed, or the other party's dragon horns that are like a goat, fiercely protruding forward, it proves that the other party was a black dragon before his death.

Unlike the black-green rotten water dragon breath spewed out by ordinary black dragons, the dragon breath spewed out by this dragon lich is darker and smellier, and the corrosive ability is also stronger, and many of the valley people who were sprayed to death staggered to their feet and began to attack their former relatives and friends, because they have now turned into undead.

Under this one-sided slaughter, there is a group of people who go against the current and pounce on the raging dragon lich, even if most of them, under this terrible monster, can't support a blow at all, and still fight one after another.

These men and women, old and young, and of different races, the only thing they have in common is that they wear a fiery red cloak, they are the Cloaked Warriors of Anka, and they are giving their lives to fight for the lives of ordinary Vale Lords, and to reduce casualties as much as possible.

Before the transformation, this dragon lich had at least reached antiquity, because his size had exceeded the super large and entered the giant size, under normal circumstances, only a black dragon of this age would grow to this size.

The lizard queen was purely accidental, and it was rare to see a dragon as gluttonous as her.

The physiognomy is very similar to that of the black dragon, but there are not many dragon scales and muscles left all over the body, only a huge skeleton remains, including dragon wings, and many places that are suspected of being muscle tissue, which are just a cloud of black mist formed by negative energy.

The position of the dragon's eyes flickered with a stinging scarlet light, and whoever fell on his body was involuntarily wrapped in a terrifying cold energy, and the kind that went directly into the soul, and stood in place paralyzed.

The Dragon Lich, as the name suggests, is a lich transformed by a dragon, which retains most of the dragon's abilities, but also has some of the Lich's special abilities, such as manipulating the undead, terrifying aura, paralyzing gaze, paralyzing touch, undead characteristics, super spell resistance, partial immunity, and so on.

This allows them to increase their combat effectiveness greatly without much change in the life dice.

When it comes to the Dragon Lich, one has to mention the Dragon Witch Cult, also known as the Dragon Worship Cult, which was founded by Samast.

He was a prodigal mage of the same era as Archmage of Ilminster, and he was not only the chosen choice of the goddess of magic, but also the lover of one of the seven sisters, Erasdra, but it was not long before the two parted ways due to a disagreement, which was seen as the reason for this extreme genius to turn his back on the goddess of magic and join the arms of immortality.

The genius mage prophesied that the continent of Faeron would eventually be ruled by an undead dragon with wisdom, so after years of painstaking research, he created the Book of Dragons, a magnificent tome on how to transform dragons into dragon lichs.

The cultists who followed him formed a church organization that called itself the Dragon Worship.

Because they worship dragons, especially evil dragons, especially the undead evil dragons.

This church is dedicated to convincing the evil colored dragons of the continent of Faeron to transform into dragon lichs and become part of the dragon witch cult.

It's just that the progress of this matter has been quite unsatisfactory.

Those intelligent beings choose to become lichs, often out of necessity.

Their hundreds, if not hundreds, of life will come to an end in an instant, and when they find no other way to continue their lives, they can only transform themselves into lichs.

But dragons are different, as long as they are not killed, they have at least two thousand years of life, and death is a very distant thing for them.

Becoming a dragon lich will certainly allow these dragons to gain great power in a short period of time, but for those dragons who have not grown to ancient age, it is tantamount to giving up the normal way of growing as a dragon.

For those dragons in the prime of life, the gains outweigh the losses.

After all, most of the transformation of the undead is closely related to the strength of the undead, and you can't expect an ordinary person to transform into an undead knight or banshee, and the dragon lich is no exception.

The transformation of an adult dragon into a dragon lich and an ancient dragon is definitely not the same concept.

Once transformed into the undead state, it will mean giving up most of the feelings, which is not acceptable to most dragons.

Only those ancient dragons who are on the verge of death, or dragons with special circumstances, should consider transforming themselves into dragon lichs.

Therefore, the dragons that now make up the Dragon Worship Cult, the Dragon Lich is only a small part, most of the dragons are still in a biological state, and most of them use the lies they consider in exchange for the service and tribute of those cultists of the Dragon Worship Cult, in order to persuade them to join the ranks of the Dragon Lich, the service of these cultists can be described as dedicated.

Based on the secret characteristics of its own development, as well as the characteristics of those giant dragons living alone, the Dragon Worship Sect tends to be highly secretive to the outside world, and many people don't know that there is such a powerful cult in the Faren Continent.

It was more than a decade later that Samast tried to find and control the Dragonmania Lock, artificially inducing the Dragonmania, forcing more dragons to transform into Dragonlich in order to escape the uncontrollable Dragon's Fury caused by the Dragonmania.

In fact, some of the colourful dragons have agreed to transform into dragon lich out of fear of dragon madness, and once caught in the dragon's rage, they will turn into the most tyrannical killing machines, attacking everything around them, including their servants and allies.

These evil colored dragons are not worried about the disasters they bring to others, they are afraid that they will do stupid things in the process and be used and slaughtered by those who have a good heart.

Gavin knew a piece of information that many people didn't know, and that the relationship between the Byronists and Sambia was very close.

The first dragon lich of the Dragon Cult was transformed in the city of Sambia, now known as the city of Selren, and in the same year the Kingdom of Jondas rejected the request for the city-state of Sambia, and relations between the two sides began to deteriorate.

There is nothing wrong with these two things when viewed separately, but when you look at them together, it is intriguing.

This is not a coincidence, but the appearance of the dragon lich has emboldened the lords of the city-state of Sambia to rebel and break away from their original masters.

Conversely, it was the Byronists who secretly supported the independence of the city-state of Sambia.

In fact, Sambia's kingdom attributes are the same as those of the colored dragons, with a never-ending greed for wealth and any means available for their own greed, and the situation of young red dragons is not unique, they cooperate with those evil colored dragons in many places.

And among them, it is all those dragon worship cultists who are fueling the troubles.

As for the reason, of course, in order to collect wealth, to get close to those dragons and let them use them for their own use, what could be more convenient than a large amount of wealth?

As a country with huge wealth, Sambia has always used mercenaries, and not forming its own army is an extremely abnormal thing in itself, unless they have the king bomb hole card in their hands, and they are not afraid of the invasion of ordinary armies of other forces, such as the purple dragon army of the Cormir Kingdom.

If there is a dragon cult with a large number of dragons and dragon lich allies lurking behind, it all makes sense.

When Ankh developed rapidly in the valley back then, the one who suffered the most was naturally Sambia, and when they found that there was no way to suppress Anka's development and growth with ordinary methods, they could only send their trump card - the dragon lich.

Going around and around, Anka's final cause of death was still Sambia, and it could only be Sambia, and the Santarin Society had not yet been established at that time.

The information belonging to the dragon lich was circling in his mind, but Gavin's actions did not hesitate at all, and sacrificed all his important methods at once.

Shadow Showdown.

Undead Revenge Realm.

Summon the Shadow Legion.

Summons the five willows and activates the five willows superstate complete body.

The Six-Armed Serpent, Daphine, the Lizard Queen, Estylor, and Razorblade were all summoned by Gavin.

Gavin now has Anka's face, but he is still himself, including ability.

As for whether they really summoned the six-armed snake demons? Or if everything is an illusion simulated according to one's own abilities, then you need to leave here to find out.

Anyway, all perception and communication are the same as in reality.

"Kurgol and Agtha are pestering the dragon lich."

"Ophelia, Daphine, and Estelle take out that necromancer first."

Gavin was able to arrange his troops in an instant, and those spellcasters were always the first to be killed, and he was not blinded by the power of the dragon lich.

The most dangerous of all is the necromancer who lurks behind the dragon lich, and no one knows what spells he can cast.

Although he knew that there was an illusion in front of him, everything was an illusion, but everything was so realistic that Gavin had to treat everything as if it were real.

Except for Esteller, who is still a little lacking in combat experience, the others are all experienced in battle, and they don't need Gavin's command at all, they will make the best choice.

None of them fought in the flesh, all of them were shadows or shadows of the night.

The best at dealing with the undead is not those creatures in the upper plane, but the existence of the same undead.

In particular, the undead spirits such as lichs and banshees, who rely heavily on negative energy, are easier to restrain them.

This battle is a replica of the original battle against the evil beast ghost necromancer in Avanshor.

Not only was the necromancer extremely aggrieved, but the dragon lich was also angry and roaring, but there was nothing to be done, whether it was a paralyzing gaze or a paralyzing touch, it could not be effective against the lizard queen and razor claw, which were also composed of negative energy.

Even the most powerful Dragon's Breath attacks are almost ineffective, as after transforming into Dragon Lich, their Dragon's Breath has also changed, no longer a chemical reaction generated by the dragon-based tissues of their own body, but a supernatural ability that simulates Dragon's Breath with negative energy.

This kind of simulation is difficult to achieve 100%, so the dragon lich's dragon breath usually takes on a hybrid nature, half of which is the original energy attribute nature and half is a negative energy shock.

The one that is transformed into the original attribute of Dragon's Breath can inflict impact damage on the Lizard Queen and Razorclaw.

But that kind of negative energy impact, when it comes to the night shadow, which is purely composed of negative energy, becomes a healing effect.

Typical while brushing damage and healing, the result is in vain.

This situation is mutual.

Most of the dragon lich's negative energy generated by its anomalous abilities and attacks are not effective against the Lizard Queen and Razorclaw.

The same Lizard Queen's Shadow Dragon's Breath naturally won't have any effect.

Therefore, the battle between the three dragons can only be carried out in hand-to-hand combat in the end, and it will occasionally be mixed with the casting of the dragon lich, but it has little effect, because its spell-casting ability is a bit similar to the spell-like ability, and it is still relatively limited.

With a range of special abilities restricted, the battle between the dragons is boring, with back and forth being nothing more than pounces, gnawings, and tail sweeps.

And the huge size determines that they are not good at dodging, and can only hit hard.

All of a sudden, banging, black gas overflowing, it looks powerful, but in fact, the lethality formed is relatively limited, and the pure negative energy body gives them a very strong ability to reduce damage.

Any special abilities are not gratuitous, and many are causal.

This is the case with Nightshade's damage reduction ability, but it is not exactly the same as the damage reduction formed by the absolute protective layer of the Battle Armor.

Those energy bodies that are purely composed of a single energy, even if the body is condensed, there is no way to compare it with the material body, and people can distinguish it at a glance, the body is filled with the unique state of energy overflow, such as those light bodies will be radiant, and ghosts and other spirits will be black mist.

It's just that the soul has a strong adsorption of negative energy, and usually those negative energies will take the initiative to find them, not to mention that they are part of their body, and the higher the soul of those life dice, the stronger this adsorption.

When the attack landed on them, a part of the negative energy that was dispersed was reabsorbed back by the strong adsorption force, as if a part of the damage was reduced.

Therefore, positive energy-related attacks can not only break the damage reduction on their bodies, but also inflict extreme damage on them, because those negative energies are not scattered from them, but are neutralized by positive energy.

When Gavin transformed into the complete body of the five willow superpowers, the end of the dragon lich was already doomed, just three hammers, the white bones and black mist of the hammer flew together, directly paralyzed to the ground, dismantled into a bone frame, it was only a matter of time.
