Chapter 12: The Astral Stage, If You Have a Destiny, You Will Come If You Are Ordered
In the infinite expanse of the Astral Sea, there will be no stats or level planning to adjust the difficulty of the area, and no one will tell you to explore the area in front of you later.
Mortal quests are not given...... That's the purpose of the main god space.
But in a place where going out to make soy sauce may be encountered from the bottom to the Manyu plant to the gods and disasters, no one will accept complaints about the unreasonable difficulty of encountering.
As a typical lich - emaciated as a dried corpse, tendons bare in white bones, hollow eyes radiating like a red moon, and a seemingly weak body flowing with surging necromantic magic.
Cervante Hibbert understood the iron rules of the vast sea of stars so well that he would never fight an opponent who was stronger than himself, and even an enemy whose strength seemed to be close to him would order his former heroes to rush to him.
It is precisely because of this cautious attitude that it has never been harmed by the adventurers who came to crusade after abandoning its own race and transforming it into a lich through rituals, and it has faded into a legend in a time so long that even elves will decay.
*The maximum lifespan of an elf is around 750 years old.
A notorious astral pirate from the Graleon plane, Cervante used his powerful prophecy magic to find out most of his opponent's information before he decided to earn a bounty from the chicken farmer.
Donal Brizan, an adventurer employee affiliated with Aquiz Xuan, is a holy warrior from the town of Red Pine in Feren Sword Bay, and is a holy warrior of the God of Wealth of the Dragon Empire, who has mastered small skills such as dragon roar and legal order, and does not have any special dragon background.
Even his former teammates have temporarily left the team due to annual leave, Chinese New Year and other reasons, and have to try their luck to recruit wild adventurers to make up the number to complete the task.
What is the difference between such a powerless dragonborn holy warrior driving a magic ship worth hundreds of thousands of dollars and a child holding gold through the city?
So after confirming the authenticity of the information, the lich from the Shackled Islands hurriedly launched an attack on the walking treasure chest!
Despite this, this group of corporate adventurers did not lose their fighting spirit after hearing his name.
How stupid and ridiculous!
I don't know what to do!
After a horde of necromancers invaded the Basket Enhancement II, Donal and Cen flew to the deck of the Red Moon as if no one was around, and faced off against the legendary spellcaster and the infamous Lich Pirate Captain who could run rampant in many planes!
※ Legendary, caster ≠ legendary caster, the difference is whether the base cast level reaches the watershed of 17/21, otherwise no matter how strong it is, it will not be able to cast 9 rings or legendary magic.
Cervante watched intently, and the Dragonborn and Tigerborn, who boarded the enemy ship alone, were extraordinary.
The former's scales shimmered with a copper-colored brilliance, the serrated giant sword in his hand flowed with magical energy from the pure gold shield and the tendon whip of the Thai beast, and the Mithril full-body armor engraved with the holy emblem exuded the divine power of the Marshal of the Zhengyi Xuantan.
The latter was calm and relaxed, holding the blade of the Sith force field, dressed in Tianxia silk silk, and the constant prophecy spell could not see through the slightest detail, and the life force entangled around his body was terrifying.
And so on, it suddenly realized a blind spot that it subconsciously ignored because of its wealth.
Of all the professions, only the Paladin is special, and has the possibility of pressing a hammer on an enemy far stronger than himself in a special environment.
If you want to ask why......
"Cervante Hibbert, the red moon of the Shackled Islands, I, Donal Brizan, am on a legitimate and fair trade route, and I am here to protect my sword and prosper in the trade road!"
While chanting the names of the gods he believed in, Donal, who had fallen from the sky on the deck of the Red Moon, raised his greatsword called "Toothbrush" in his hand.
In an instant, the golden light hung down from the distant sky, and the giant sword toothbrush suddenly exuded the power of an inferior artifact!
Oh no, this holy warrior can temporarily pull the power of the "Holy Sword Technique"!
The anti-magic field composed of divine power suddenly spread outward with Donal as the center, forming an "anti-magic field" and an "anti-evil magic circle" within a radius of ten feet that only his spells could take effect.
As soon as this move was made, all the undead creatures such as ghosts that targeted him were immediately expelled back to the spirit realm where they originally existed, and those undead creatures who were driven by magic to maintain their connection to the negative energy plane were paralyzed.
There aren't many undead left on the entire ghost pirate ship capable of fighting Donal, and even some of the magic ship's functions have been affected!
The legendary lich changed color when he saw it, and it was really possible for it to be defeated by the Holy Sword because of its magic skills!
Although it is unknown how long the Dragonborn Paladin's "Holy Sword Technique" will last—it will not last more than three minutes, but the inexplicable sense of crisis makes the lich realize that he shouldn't go toe-to-toe with the other party.
"Des, Andy, you two get rid of this incompetent paladin!"
"Yes!"
Not all undead creatures are disturbed by the unilateral "anti-magic field", and intelligent undead creatures who have completed the transformation of life forms abound under the hands of the Lord of the Revenant.
Des, the demon soul corpse warrior who was once an astral adventurer, and Andy, the corpse knight who was once a hero of a certain plane, are high-level professionals who have been killed, desecrated, awakened, and dominated by them.
They are ineffective against spellcasters, but they can be a huge overwhelm for combat classes.
The Holy Sword-wielding Paladin is a little tricky for a legendary lich, but just right for two near-legendary combat class undead.
※Undead creatures generally have high HD, and it is easier to reach level 21 than normal health.
Compared to the unreasonable paladin, Cervante focused his attention on another tiger man.
Bestials are usually brainless warriors who are well suited to be their next thug, aren't they?
Chen Zhou, who had unfolded the lightsaber, had just landed smoothly, and his resentful gaze bit him like a poisonous snake.
"You will pay for your stupidity!"
Vicious spells followed, the "blasphemous words" of the 7 rings, capable of dizzying, weakening, paralyzing, and even dying for all non-evil people who were weaker than Cervante's ability to cast spells!
Hearing this, Chen Zhou was not only not afraid, but even wanted to laugh a little, so he simply let Vikna's whispers rage by.
He was immune to all of these abilities or spell effects (e.g., quasi-god abilities, death-proof enchantments, etc.).
A lot of the Necromancy's magic doesn't work in the face of the violent and targeted Protective School...... If Cervante is truly a legendary spellcaster, it would be a different matter.
And while allowing the enemy to waste time, he did not let go of this wonderful opportunity.
Ignoring the blasphemy in his face, Chen Zhou, armed with a lightsaber, used the "Wind Making" as a propulsion and launched a deadly charge towards the lich!
