Chapter XXIX: Anti-Terrorist Operations

Dark magic is known for its destructiveness and stealth, involving curses, summoning, etc., [Summoning Skeletons] is a low-level magic of the Dark Magic Summoning Department, using dark elements to ignite the soul fire of skeletons, and using spells to turn skeletons into minions.

Soul magic is known for its defensive and auxiliary properties, involving healing, illusions, etc., [Soul Resurrection] can extract the soul from the body, allowing the dead (summoned creatures only) to be reborn in the form of ghosts.

Necromancy is the crystallization of dark magic and soul magic, which uses the dark elemental to cast spells and mimics soul magic in the elemental arrangement. As a result, both the necromancer and his minions are dark and are also classified as heretics by the Holy See.

In front of Sam Montgomery, Qingyi took the "black jade" and stuffed it into his mouth. This jade pendant is quite large, if he uses his tongue and vocal cords to make sounds, he will definitely be super uncomfortable. He opened the skill book again, only to feel that the [Soul Force Field] fluctuated uncontrollably, and the skill bar changed:

【Source of Darkness】Dedicate your heart to the darkness in order to master the more powerful dark power. Dark Attribute Single Magic Attack is increased by 10% and magic cooldown is reduced by 2 seconds. Dark group spell cast time is increased by 2 seconds, duration is doubled, and cast range is increased by 30%; Dark Attribute Realm.

【Soul Force Field】When you live with a necromantic creature who has signed a contract with you, the soul fire will become more powerful, and you can observe the world from the soul level, and you can also steal souls from enemies. The user, allied units in the user's soul field, and the user's minions have a chance to increase their soul value for each attack, equal to 30% of the attack damage.

Well, following the "task deduction" and "prop deduction", Qingyi has experienced a "skill deduction"! The effect of [Soul Lust] is similar to that of [Bloodthirsty], except that it gets soul points instead of physical strength, which is undoubtedly a very useful skill, but it is lower in level than [Soul Force Field], and those who push the boat down the river are swallowed up! However, the two new skills are passive skills, and even if they are annexed, they will continue to have an effect.

"Thank you, Sam, I love it so much. These things must have taken a lot of thought on your part, right? Qingyi looked at Sam Montgomery and said with a slight appreciation. "Black Jade" can only be used by the Necromantic King (apparently it was brought back from "Huaxia" by Schroed Bray), and the market is relatively small, but there are definitely a lot of people rushing to ask for the two skill books. Not to mention the price, these three things are very suitable for Qingyi, which shows that Sam also moved a lot of scheming in advance.

The other party couldn't help but wave his hand: "As long as you like it!" ”

Qingyi smiled, thought for a while, and said, "I'll ask Skaul to send a force to you as a bodyguard, plus your original Dusk Sect guards, there are quite a few people." Even if something big happens, they can escort you safely. Do your job, I won't treat you badly. ”

Anyway, he didn't care about the crazy sycophant, and turned to go to the guild leaderβ€”the guild leaders were waiting for him.

There are seven or eight necromantic player guilds in Qingyi's territory, who have paid a lease fee to Qingyi and have the right to manage the city. If Qingyi is the king, then these player guilds are warlords who support their own troops. Originally, everyone was safe, but the bald eagle attacked two cities in one fell swoop, causing the two player guilds to be displaced. Now the presidents are holding a meeting to hold them accountable, and when Qingyi walked into the multi-council hall, several good guild leaders all stood up to greet him, and the unfamiliar ones also stood up and bowed slightly, while the two guild presidents who lost the city were full of impatience. I didn't come by the water.

"Sorry, I'm late." Qingyi greeted everyone, and then found a place to sit down: "Just now I was studying how to fight with my subordinates." ”

"How's the research going?" The host, the deadly stinger, was sensitive to this matter and asked in a loud voice.

"As long as you provoke unrest within Astendt, and at the same time attack in a big way, and cooperate with the outside world, you can defeat the Bald Eagle." Qingyi's tone was firm, and then quietly changed the topic: "Where did everyone go?" ”

"We're talking about responsibility." A president who lost the city said with thorns in his words, which made people look sideways. He stared at Qingyi: "Although you took the city back, the city has long been trampled by the bald eagle, and it is completely different from when I bought it back!" Depreciation! It's devaluation, you know?! ”

"And then?" Qingyi followed the other party's words and asked patiently.

"When I bought the city, there were a lot of basic configurations, including mid-level NPCs, lumber mills, and libraries...... But now there is nothing! The president's face was a little louder.

The atmosphere was a little tense. Glancing at Qingyi in vain, he came out to play a round: "The important resources were taken away when the army withdrew, and as long as your personnel are in place, they can be delivered at any time." ”

Because the inexplicable tone was too cold, the circle was so round that the unlucky president slapped the table: "Don't talk about resources, what about buildings?" was blown up by a landmine, the road can't be walked, and there is no room to live in, so I have to pay out of my pocket to build the city lord's mansion?! ”

"You want me to take responsibility for your city and pay for your losses?" Qingyi asked.

"That's right!"

Super Burger King couldn't see it anymore and shouted, "Damn, what's the noise!" It's just a city, I'll convert it with you! I can't wait to fight on the front lines. ”

The president seemed to be on the same page as Qingyi, and said without thinking about it: "Don't change!" My guild has lost so much, where is it to change the city can be perfunctory! ”

Hula! Black streamers erupt from the shadows in a frenzy, wrapping around the opponent's limbs and lifting them into the air! The "Guardian of the Throne" is against the opponent's head, and can poke into it at any time and wreak havoc on the soul fire! The black dead air spread outward, flooding everyone's ankles and causing the temperature to drop dramatically! Because Qingyi is moving too fast, the other guild leaders haven't drawn their weapons and entered the battle state yet!

For a moment, no one dared to speak.

"The contract is clearly written, I am responsible for the protection, but I am protecting the land, because the territory is in my interest; You have contracted the city, and all the income and manpower in the city are yours, and it has nothing to do with me. It's the bald eagle that lays mines in your city, it's not me, you can't blame me. Finally, I would like to advise you, this is a time of war, don't make trouble at this time. ”

As soon as the black streamer exerted force, it slammed the long into the wall, shaking the dust and falling down. Qingyi said to the dumbfounded presidents again: "Cities near the Sea of Bones are expensive, and cities near Astante are cheaper, and this is precisely for the sake of safety. I'm willing to sell, everyone is willing to buy, and I've signed an electronic contract, so there's less verbal fighting. To be honest, it's not easy for me to be this necromancer king, I hope you can understand. ”

The unlucky president didn't pat the dust on his body, jumped up and raised his sword and pointed at Qingyi: "I protest!" You leave all the good cities to your acquaintances, and those of us who come after you can only get the worse onesβ€”"

Before Qingyi could finish speaking, his left arm disconnected itself, grabbed the man's throat and pressed it against the wall four meters away. Everyone saw that there was a black ribbon between Qingyi's arm and body, no wonder the attack distance would increase.

"It's good to have some words in your heart, and it's very beautiful to say them. You don't know how to advance and retreat, and you are really not suitable to be the president. The blue light in the eyes of the White Bone Tyrant was so frightened that the other party's feet kicked wildly. The lethal stinger and the others hurriedly said a few good words, and Qingyi let the man go and walked away.

After this incident, Qingyi rushed to the border by airship. He didn't practice his skills with Xue Duo this time, but thought quietly.

After a series of battles, Bald Eagle's strategic intentions gradually emerged. He first put on a posture of attacking the fortification, deceived Squall into retreating, and then took the opportunity to sneak attack; attacked two cities, and held on as if they had to occupy territory; When Skoll fought again with hundreds of thousands of troops in one go, he stopped fighting again, but quickly retreated and destroyed the city. The bald eagle is like playing tai chi, he falls and falls is a big horse, but others want to beat him, but it is like a spring breeze blowing in his face, and he can't hurt him. It can be seen that he just wanted to consume the national strength of the Dusk Empire through local wars, and finally forced Qingyi Mountain to exhaust itself.

But is that really the case? Bald Eagle and the famous master of deception, have they been suspicious and concealing their true intentions so far? Qingyi didn't dare to imagine, but he had to. He kept calculating and deducing, and as long as he made a mistake, the Dusk Empire would suffer at any time. However, he couldn't figure out what the other party had in mind after thinking about it, so he had to adopt a stupid method - one step at a time.

Astant, Temporary Heresy Investigation Department.

The wooden door to the room at the end of the corridor is ajar. The head of the regiment, Jonny, sat on the bed, his eyebrows lowered. He scooped the ointment with his hand, rubbed it on his chest, and slowly rubbed the power into his skin and muscles. In addition to the space bracelet, he also wore a gemstone bracelet, which he could use to communicate with the bald eagle from a distance. He was the only one in the room.

Yesterday's search for heretics went well, with investigators finding many Twilight cultists (though they were all rescued by Oliver Quinn) and even a few Twilight monks. Whether it is a dusk monk or a dusk swordsman, they can act as a human being, and even blend into the crowd, making it impossible to distinguish the real from the fake, and they are more cunning than the living dead who have lost their minds and their bodies are defeated. But no matter how cunning they are, the "Knights of the Iron Hoof" are their nemesis.

Some heretics carry explosives and shout the name of the gods when they are caught, intending to die with their enemies. Most of the heretics were stopped by Oliver's arrow, and several Knights of Judgment were wounded. Despite this, Jonny was restrained, neither killing the heretic nor turning his back on Oliver.

"Captain!" A subordinate pushed the door in a hurry, first habitually raised his hand to block his face, and when he found that it was okay, he shouted: "The people on the front line have sent news: the White Bone Tyrant has personally come to attack!" ”

Jonny: "Oh. ”

"Aren't you going? Haven't you always wanted to purify the Necromantic King? Seeing that the regiment commander was indifferent, his subordinates asked unrelentingly: "This is the first time he has personally conquered since the start of the war!" ”

"The intelligence was not given to me by Bald Eagle, which means that he doesn't want me to go to the front." Jonny raised his wrist to let the gemstone bracelet reflect the sunlight before continuing to apply the ointment. He said in a nonchalant tone: "The June Sunshine wants to attract our attention, so that the Dusk Sect can take advantage of it. As long as we purge the whole of Astant and strangle the turmoil in its cradle, he will be helpless. ”
