"See, this is actually very easy to do!" In the wide grass hut that was large enough to accommodate a three-story building, Roseda was pointing to the flame about two people tall in the "arms" of the super-large altar, and continued: "The necromancy that you are learning now is actually the castrated part. biquge.info starter, in fact, it can't be considered a true necromancy anymore. It's like a gelding stallion is not a stallion in the first place, a real necromancer will not make any skeleton warriors at all, the kind of thing worse than a beggar, it is a waste of precious money and precious corpse raw materials!"
Nearby, a burly, knee-high-shouldered ghoul leader, with a wave of his "ape arm", lowered the body of a desperate man into the fire on the altar. As soon as the mutilated corpse entered the desolate and white light of the bones, it immediately trembled like a living corpse and let out a terrifying scream!
Then the fire swelled up, like a fierce lion with a huge mouth, and swallowed the corpse into the deepest part of the white flames, and after a few breaths it disintegrated into thousands of ashes with a terrible scream!
Roseda continued to explain in his duck-like voice, "The skeleton warrior was only a short-lived thing in the early stages of the development of necromancy, and it soon proved to be of little use except to bluff the uninformed farmer, and was a complete waste of money and energy! He suddenly asked with an extremely stern expression, "Navia, what do you say is the difference between ghouls, demons, and even vampires and Poda corpses?"
Navia hesitated for a long time before she whispered, "I don't know, I just know that they are all undead." "Yes, the Chinese have always said that these are undead, but no one has carefully discerned the difference - except for who is uglier than the other. Naturally, Poda corpses are the ugliest, because they have strange facial features, gray skin, and always have an evil "death gaze" in their eyes that people dare not look at. And vampires are the most beautiful. Not only are they handsome in appearance and beautiful in appearance, but they are also very physically and intellectually high. Although seriously. A high-level vampire's physical strength is not as good as that of a high-level ghoul, let alone invulnerability to the four elements like the ghoul king; But its comprehensive quality is the highest, and it is more "humane" and "artistic" than the first two, and a very small number of vampires can even become "underground musicians" in the middle of big cities, and are enthusiastically worshiped by countless perverts.
Even in Giffen, there are students who secretly worship vampires - if they can't use Guò high earth spells to turn themselves into long-lived half-monsters or lichs. Then becoming a vampire is also a good choice.
Hearing such childish words, Roseda just snorted and chuckled: "Those guys who only want to enjoy life all the time have really lost all the real essence! The undead are sometimes very different from the undead, or even the complete opposite! The Poda corpse is actually a living corpse, which can move normally, think simply, eat, heal wounds, and even grow and grow like a living creature. But in essence, it's just a dead body that resembles a living thing!"
He pointed to the burly ghoul next to him and said, "They, and us, are different. We're all living creatures! real living creatures! Although we are all relegated to the dead, we are actually living creatures that resemble the dead, and we have certain characteristics of the dead. For example, we will gradually become immune to toxins, hypnosis, paralysis, immobilization, disease, etc., and after our abilities continue to improve, we will be immune to instantaneous effects, necromancy effects, and even psychic effects like inanimate objects. But at heart we are still living creatures. ”
He explained slowly: "In fact, the undead can be roughly divided into these two categories: the dead like the living and the living like the dead, the former can become a living thing. 23hh.cc latter can be called a dead thing. It is often those of us who are truly wise. So a normal ghoul, a goblin, a vampire, and we fear the necromancer don't decay. On the contrary, our body will be kept in a better state, not aging, not tired, and no smell!"
Seeing Navia move her mouth. Something I want to say. He raised his hand and stopped, "I know what you want to ask." Yes, some ghouls and demons do become corrupted, and they will have pimple sores on their bodies, and their flesh will crack like a pile of rotten flesh, and their bodies will exude a pungent and strange smell. But it was a special case, their bodies had been polluted by a filthy force. In fact, we fear that necromancers and others who are dedicated to the study of the dead are exploring ways to cure it. Because this contamination can temporarily increase the ability of the undead, but it will accelerate its destruction. It's like a very terrible disease for us! So if you see those polluted spirits in the future, you must stay away, otherwise you will die. ”
As he spoke, he was on top of a small house-high altar. The sacred emblem of Theodosius, which was as big as a basin, suddenly screamed like a mad scream. It was as if thousands of ghosts were screaming and praying. In an instant, the white bones on the altar shook and soared, like a hundred and ten "dancers" of different shapes. Stepping on the strange screaming music, the majestic "Dance of the Dead" was danced.
Roseda's crocodile eyes glowed with excitement. He was so excited that he raised his arms and howled, "God! Theodosius is giving us gifts!" The altar and the bones of the dancing ground all burst into pale flames. In an instant, the majestic flames converged into a giant flame as big as a two-story building!
Roseda had fallen to her knees reverently. A calm eulogy flowed from his mouth. In an instant, there was a smell of a farmer kneeling down and worshipping Mother Earth. See this magical scene. Navia hesitated for a moment and had no choice but to follow suit. Pretend to pray slowly. Secretly anxiously waiting for the "gift" to come.
Soon. Five or six people are in the flow of magnificent flames on the highlands. There was a clatter of a hundred and ten bones colliding and colliding—the gods were reshaping the bones with his immeasurable force. The Great Holy Emblem on the altar suddenly emitted a blood-red light. Illuminated the bones that were fusing into the ground. Lying on the ground, Roseda also jumped to his feet and took out several extremely expensive scrolls: some prayers, activating objects, resurrection, transfiguration, and so on. Excitedly, he cast these powerful spells in one breath to the thing that was gradually taking shape in the flames above his head. One hundred and ten skeletons in the depths of the ground. Bursts of magical brilliance flashed like dozens of crackling arcs. Strange - those magically spells are converging under the power of even more magically gods. It quickly blends into the skeleton in accordance with the mysterious law.
The huge flames that stood on the ground exploded into bursts of brilliant fireworks—a huge figure that looked like a bat skeleton flew to the ground. It had a two-legged wyvern head on top of it. The hard skull had a solid metallic texture. A sharp tooth is as smooth as a curved mirror, reflecting the flash sharply. It's not like it's naturally occurring at all. It's more like it's been carefully cast and polished by the finest craftsmen. It's a bat-like body. It is made up of strong bones as thick as a tree. At first glance, it doesn't look like a weak and hollow bone. Instead, it is more like a "construct" with skeletal features. It's full of a different sense of power!
The strangest thing is its forearm: the long winged phalanges have fused perfectly with the arm bones to form a "long, thick plate" with hideous spines. It was like a pair of odd-shaped broadswords with wavy barbs. Tightly mounted on a stout skeletal arm.
The big elephant-like creature was crawling over step by step on all fours. There was a faint green mist that gathered around his body - Poison Cloud Technique!
Navia was slightly surprised and asked, "This is the skeleton undead?" Just now, Teacher Roseda said that the bone frame was useless, but now he built a bone frame himself. Well, it's just that this bone frame is two or three times thicker than ordinary bones, and it looks quite thick, but what's the use of really fighting?
Roseda was surprisingly excited and said, "No! It's a Bone Golem, and it's a Bone Golem that has been permanently altered by a Tempered Bone Spell! Not only is it harder than steel, but it also has the typhoid fever mitigation of the Iron Golem and similar properties. To put it simply, it is a standard Iron Golem for the price of a Bone Golem. The ordinary sword was like a weak white paper in front of him, shattering when touched! This is the truly magical high-level necromancy spell!" and excitedly pointed to other places on the bone golem and said, "Do you know that eight hundred years ago, the original golem making method started with the flesh golem, and the flesh golem. A branch of necromancy at the beginning. Over the next few hundred years, this branch continued to diverge into more branches, and the largest one combined with the spells of other schools to produce the current Stone Golem, Iron Golem, etc. However, this vein is already based on change spells, supplemented by necromancy. It's not really necromancy. But other branches have also developed, and today this bone golem is a kind of undead resurrection technique similar to the iron golem, you see, it was originally based on the bones of the bipedal wyvern, and it was made by joining those corpses just now. But under the attention of the gods, some of its characteristics have been changed, and it even has some special abilities. You see, the poisonous cloud technique that lingers around it is the result of this mutation. Look at the crimson glow in his eyes, this is the death gaze. Look at the faint halo it emitted, this is a very high-level anti-disorder magic circle! God must have given it more powers. ”
He used his will to connect with the magical super-large skeleton golem in front of him, causing it to scream and shake the head of the fierce flying dragon, and spewed out a wild "acid breath spray", which instantly rotted the entire grass shed into choking gray smoke flying around like a thick fog!
Roseda laughed exaggeratedly: "Sour breath spray! Hahaha With such a powerful mid-range acid attack, those wood-headed paladins can't even get close to you." Let YD see what else you can do, the god Theodosius must have sent down a powerful reward!"
The dragon-headed skeleton let out a terrifying "oh" sound, and the sound waves vibrated in the middle of the sound. A burst of intense energy followed. It slammed into Navia's body, and instantly "scattered" his strength! Nearly fell: "Wave of Fatigue?" He was horrified in his heart: "An Iron Golem who is not afraid of spells can also unleash waves of fatigue to weaken melee enemies, and use acid breath sprays to disintegrate enemies. It's a pocket-sized mobile fortress! Mages, priests, and warriors can't stop you wherever you go!"
Roseda had turned his head to the altar that was shaking on its own, and raised his arms and shouted: "Praise be to you! Thee the wise Theodosius, Thou art the strongest warrior in the depths of the darkness, thou art the high beacon of the eyes! I will always be by thy side, and let the foolish and stubborn tremble in terror and crumble in trembling!" and then turned to Navia and cried out, "See? The bones of the dead are a magical key that opens the door to mysterious powers. Let those magical and transcendent powers manifest on this skeleton. This is the real necromancy! Not simply towards death, but in death to explore the mysteries of the universe!"
He suddenly yelled sternly at the slightly sluggish Navia, "Remember. Use your torn heart to explore the supernatural power on the border between life and death. When your attainment surpasses me, I will cheer for you in the kingdom of God Theodosius!ahahahaha"
In the past few days, the sun has been shining in Sizhuang Houde City, just like the sky and the sun are also cheering the day of the celebration of Sizhuang Houde City, spreading their bright and bright warm smiling faces to the vast city and bustling crowd.
As a major commercial town, the city is especially beautiful when the festival is approaching, and the streets are lined with colorful flags of different shapes, or the earth can cover a farmhouse or a small but dense handkerchief strung together. All of them rippled slightly in the bright breeze, as if they were in the midst of colorful waves.
Dongzi is taking Le Lin and the others to collect some spell items on the streets, preparing to continue testing his runic seal scepter technique. And Danila also bought some materials to practice the arcane. She used the Psychic Connection Scepter to talk to Bane Harley in the scepter every day, and over time, Barn Harley literally began to teach her the arcane realms - and for free!
As a result, Danila's expression and mood gradually improved, and her pale face, which was originally thin and boneless, appeared with a ruddy color and smooth skin. Along the way, he also talked and laughed with Rafina next to him.
Rafina kept asking, "Yesterday, the wait in your room didn't seem to go out until midnight, did you learn a new spell from Bainhalle?"
Daniela chuckled a little embarrassedly, "Where did you come from, I only learned an acceleration technique today." As he spoke, he subconsciously touched the spell scepter on his waist, for fear that it would be stolen.
Rafina stared at the scepter with more and more envy and said, "That's quite a spell. If I had this spell, maybe some of my comrades wouldn't have died," the acceleration technique allows the receiver to move and move much faster than usual. When you want to attack, you can throw two punches before they finish one punch, and even the body's instinctive reflexes can be improved by three to five percent!
If you can't win the fight, you want to run away. You can also double your escape speed! It's hard to catch up with you under the same conditions. Therefore, it is very useful for melee fighters such as warriors and paladins. Of course, mages can also use it to speed up the casting speed, which can be described as a must-have spell with one stone.
And in actual combat, there is a line between life and death, and between lightning and flint, it is either someone else's death or your death. If others are faster than you, the more likely you will be killed, and vice versa. The low-class team that Rafina once participated in may have died because he was half a beat slower.
The topic suddenly became a little heavy. Danila hurriedly advised, "Don't think about those unhappy things. At least you're still standing in the sun, and you can have a happy holiday with everyone. ”
Rafina smiled a little self-deprecatingly and said, "Maybe it's my luck, I'm still alive until now." Alas, it was better luck than the hungry people outside the city, and I heard that the dreaded necromancer named Roseda had killed all the hungry people overnight, and then retreated without a word. What the hell is he going to do? If he wants to attack the city, he will kill himself, and if he wants to kill those hungry people and create the undead, then why didn't he do it earlier? He waited for dozens of days before he acted?"
Lelin couldn't help but interjected: "I heard that it is related to the Church of Cusport. It is said that the Fear Necromancer has a great background. He also has a grudge against O'Connor, the high priest of the church in Cusport. "She's always been interested in the things of the gods. In terms of listening to some gossip about the gods, he was quite sensitive and active at that time.
The other two were also caught up in the gossip instinct. As soon as they arrived, they gathered together and asked, "What is the origin? Could it be the brother of the high priest O'Connor? A family tragedy of one good and one evil?" "No, I guess it's a family conflict, I heard that O'Connor's family has a very strong force on the eastern seaboard, and has offended many people. Maybe they will bring down the family that fears the necromancer, and in a fit of rage, they will learn the most evil necromancy to take revenge. Several people were chirping and chattering, but Dongzi hurriedly interrupted them with a boo: "Don't talk about it, this is on other people's territory, if it is heard by someone with a heart, it will be troublesome." ”
