Chapter 168: The Phantom Project

Selina immediately replied, "Lord Cross, I'm so sorry! I shouldn't have advised you to deal with that wizard. Please forgive me for being rude.

As the patriarch of the Order, I shouldn't have a problem dealing with that wizard, but if I use magic, I'll probably be exposed.

Once I am exposed, I will not be able to obtain information about the Endless Reincarnation Organization in the future. ”

Cross was right when he thought about it, it was better to let her lurk in the Endless Reincarnation Organization to obtain information than to let Serena fight.

Moreover, he had just understood why he could easily defeat any wizard.

With the perception of mana, the Orb of Spellbreaker, and the ability to absorb mana, plus time standing still, Cross is indeed a wizard killer.

He replied, "I see, Serena. Since you can't fight, I'll consider other options.

However, when we really can't deal with the enemy, I need your magic to help. ”

"Yes, Your Excellency. Serena secretly admired, obviously with the strength of Cross, she could easily defeat the members of those two organizations, but this person was still so cautious.

Perhaps, this is the case with the legendary powerhouse.

"By the way, Serena, I'm going to ask you to analyze a piece of information about that wizard.

You said he was using summoning magic, and I've now detected that he's summoned two skeletons, skeletons that can walk and fight on their own. ”

"Skeleton warrior, is it Eddard the Necromancer?" Selina blurted out.

"Necromancer Eddard......?" Cross suddenly felt a little familiar with the words.

"Well, Eddard is the only wizard in the Order who is proficient in necromantic magic, and he can manipulate skeleton warriors, manipulate dead bodies, and even resurrect them. ”

Serena's explanation allowed Cross to instantly catch the clues drifting from his thoughts.

He suddenly remembered that this Ed was the necromancer that Cross had killed after his resurrection!

He was amazed: hadn't he already killed that guy at that time, and he had burned his body, how could he be resurrected again, this could not be......

"Serena, is Ed the only necromancer in the Endless Reincarnation organization?

Will there be other necromancers joining us in the near future?" Cross confirmed to Serena again.

"That's right, he's the only necromancer in the Order.

Moreover, necromancers are extremely rare existence among wizards, and once a new necromancer appears, there will definitely be quite a stir in the wizarding world. ”

Cross understood what Serena meant, and the enemy who summoned the skeleton could only be Eddard.

Moreover, Ed is indeed the right person to carry out this mission, at least, he has a very pure motive.

Although it is not known how Ed was resurrected, now the facts are in front of him, and Cross has to face it.

Now that the identity of the wizard has been determined to be Ed, the next step is to make a battle plan based on Ed's characteristics.

"Do you know Ed's traits and weaknesses? ”

Serena knew what Cross wanted to know.

"Your Excellency, as a necromancer, Ed is a difficult wizard to deal with.

Although he only sent two skeleton warriors now, it doesn't mean that his necromantic creatures are like that. He can summon a large number of necromantic creatures.

Not only that, but he also strengthens his body with necromancy, making his skin as strong as armor.

Ordinary warriors and assassins would have a hard time inflicting damage on Eddard, and wizards may have been surrounded by his army of necromancers before they could finish casting spells.

However, you can arrange for both Nia and Watson to launch a surprise attack on Eddard at the same time, which should be the best way to repel Eddard. ”

Assassins are the nemesis of wizards, and anyone who loves to hear troubadour stories knows this truth.

And Serena also proposed this plan, which proves that such a tactic is indeed feasible.

It's just that Cross doesn't feel that it's perfect enough, "I still need to distract Eddard." ”

Cross thought as he spoke.

Suddenly, he had an idea, "Serena, can you still create an illusion?

Serena was also very smart, and she immediately understood Cross's intentions.

"Yes! It's just that if I create your illusion and manipulate it, I won't have the energy to manipulate Chrysia's illusion. ”

"It doesn't matter, the main thing now is to repel these two enemies. ”

"Yes, Your Excellency. ”

After Cross told Serena about her plans, she returned to the clearing and continued to draw the magic circle, casting her summoning magic.

Cross, on the other hand, returned to the unfinished Stronghold.

"Do you have any important information, Lord Cross?" asked Nia, concerned.

"Well, I already know the identity of the enemy, and those two skeleton warriors are nothing more than enemy scouts.

But first, we're going to take out their scouts.

Nia, the two of us are going to finish off those two skeleton warriors, while the others are still here. ”

......

Nia led Cross through the woods on the edge of the avenue, and it wasn't long before two skeleton warriors appeared in their field of vision.

Cross immediately closed his eyes, and soon sensed two clouds of lilac magic, which were the source of energy that drove the skeleton warrior's actions.

Intending to drain their mana in an instant, Cross laid out a battle plan for Nia.

"Nia, you immediately kick the skeleton warrior who is close to us to the other side and make it crash into the skeleton next to you. ”

"Good. ”

"I counted down to three and we went out together. ”

"Hmm. ”

“3...... 2...... 1。 ”

The two of them exerted their strength in an instant, and Nia flew out from the side, raising her leg and hitting the skeleton's waist.

The skeleton swayed under the impact and fell in the opposite direction.

And at this moment, Cross was already in position behind the skeleton.

He closed his eyes again, sensing the location of the magic.

After capturing the position, Cross slammed his hands into force.

After piercing the skeleton's spine, the two purple balls of magic were also absorbed by Cross.

The spine is broken, the magic is sucked, and the skeleton warrior becomes a veritable skeleton in an instant.

The two skeletons all fell apart, and the broken bones fell to the ground, and under the broken bones were the two broken knives.

"Let's go, back to the city. ”

Nia, who had just landed, followed closely behind Cross.

......

On the other hand, Eddard, the lich, was taken aback, "Hmm!?Where's my skeleton warrior?"

He couldn't believe that he could sense two skeleton warriors just a second, but in less than a second, he couldn't feel it.
