Chapter 0024: Return Safely
Chapter 0024 returned safely
Compared with Li Xun's safety, Thomas Knight can be called uneasy. Every two hours, he took a few attendants to inspect the tower, from the gate on the first floor to the platform on the third floor, and finally survived the night.
Standing on the platform and looking into the distance, the thin sun slowly rose from the treetops, but the red color did not carry any temperature, and the trees around the stronghold gradually emerged from the dense fog. Hearing that the mage was still asleep, Knight Thomas muttered a few words in his throat, "These mages are ...... masters", and sent his attendants to prepare breakfast, and asked the mage to discuss the future after the meal.
Li Xun, who was woken up, shook his head helplessly, knowing that it was impossible for others to be as peaceful as himself, and these worries and worries could only be diluted by constantly doing things. After washing up and eating breakfast under the service of the attendants, Li Xun found Knight Thomas, saying that he felt the fluctuation of magic in the northwest of the stronghold, and hoped that he could lead someone to search it.
Knight Thomas listened calmly, and immediately began to go down to assign tasks, and after some disturbance of the whole assembly, the search team of 20 people set off under the leadership of Knight Thomas. One hour later, a herald ran back to ask for support from the mage, so 5 people were left to hold the stronghold, and Li Xun went out with 23 people to reinforce Thomas Knight.
When I arrived at the cave where the necromancer was last night, the battle was going on "fiercely", Thomas Knight led the soldiers to resist the attack of nearly 40 zombies, the soldiers in the front row covered their bodies with wooden shields, and the back row stabbed desperately with spears, but the zombies had rough skin and thick flesh, and they were not afraid, as long as the heads were not broken, they were still swarming and scratching the wooden shields that stood in the way, Thomas Knight shouted loudly with his long sword to maintain the stability of the shield array, where the wooden shield was broken and torn open by the zombies, He led a few attendants to pounce on the influx of zombies and cut them down, and then contracted the shield array to continue to reduce the number of zombies. As a result, the zombies are slowly decreasing, and the soldiers are also dragged out of the queue by the zombies from time to time to share the food, and the two sides are still deadlocked.
Li Xun asked the soldiers he brought to go up for reinforcements, and he stood behind the formation and began to use "spider web technique", "greasy technique", and "blazing magic ball" to take turns to ravage the cute zombie baby, saying that when he was on earth, Li Xun played the hero invincible favorite experience baby is the zombie.
In less than 5 minutes, the zombies that were still crazy just now fell to the ground one after another and turned into corpses again. As the last zombie fell, the Thomas Knight breathed a sigh of relief, and let the team retire, and the new reinforcements stepped forward to inspect the corpses, and stabbed all the zombies in the head with spears to make sure that they could not die anymore, and then began to enter the cave to search. So, a "magical" scene happened, and the mutilated corpses of 3 necromancers and some beasts were found in the cave.
Knight Thomas and the mage carefully examined the "scene" and could only announce the conclusion: the three necromancers were accidentally attacked by the surging beasts, and both sides were killed. Although it is ridiculous, it can only be accepted, after all, the corpse of the necromancer is here, and it is a credit to transport it back, as for the real situation, let those who should have a headache go for a headache!
As soon as the knight and the mage discussed, they did not stay any longer, and set fire to the corpse of the zombie, leaving 20 soldiers to continue to stay in the stronghold, and returned directly to Goodfield City with the corpses of 3 necromancers. On the way, Li Xun also found an opportunity to recover the 12 Tian eaters and the loot.
The return of the Knight of Thomas shakes the city of Goodfield. After hearing the report, the consul felt that the situation was serious, and ordered the knight of Thomas to lead a team to deliver the corpse of the necromancer to the command center of Valencia, so Thomas, who was only a low-ranking knight, was fortunate to be cordially received by the prince of Antella, and accepted the detailed questioning of the prince and the adviser mage, and was also rewarded handsomely afterwards.
After gently sending this lucky little knight away, the young and capable Prince of Antlia hurriedly asked the level 17 advisor mage Westwyan, could this be true?
Westwyan pondered for a moment and said slowly, "With the beasts of the Aveli Mountains, they also want to kill a necromancer with a high-ranking servant, this is simply an insult to the mage!" There must be something behind the matter that we don't understand, but what Knight Thomas said just now, I have detected it with a spell, and there is no concealment or disguise, it seems that an outsider has interfered with that stronghold. ”
"A few days ago, several places reported that the stronghold tower in the mountain had lost contact, and it seems that these low-level necromancers are making trouble." The Prince of Antella asked, "Now that you know that it is them, do you send some mages to cooperate with the local troops to eliminate them or expel them back?" ”
Westwyan shook his head and analyzed: "These necromancers are just low-level mages, as long as they are properly defended, they will not bring great harm to the principality, what I care about is the message conveyed by their appearance." The elite of the southern countries and the United Council of the Undead are currently only facing each other, and there is no real war yet, and at this time, these skeletons are not planning how to deal with it, but instead climb over the Aveli Mountains to harass us, I think they are warning us not to intervene in this war. ”
The Prince of Antella asked in amazement, "Do you want to allow these necromancers to slaughter our soldiers on the border?" ”
"It's not a laissez-faire, it's a control, you can kill it appropriately, but you can't go overboard, you can't really destroy them all, then the Undead Federation will inevitably take more drastic measures!"
Although the prince of Antella was reluctant, out of trust in the advisor mage, he had to accept the reality and discuss how to assign the limited mage in his hand to achieve this. When the discussion had a preliminary result, Westwyan reminded: "Your Royal Highness, the most important thing at the moment is the German refugees from Mojork who have gathered in front of the Thundering Fortress. According to the commander of the fortress, Count Andrea, the group of refugees had reached nearly 800,000 people, and it was necessary to have a clear opinion on whether to let them go or disperse, and they could no longer be allowed to gather there. ”
Prince Antria replied distressedly: "Of course it is cleared, but the safety of the Thundering Fortress and the safety of the rear must also be guaranteed, and the necromancers must not be allowed to take the opportunity to get involved." Lord Westwyan, this requires you to be more careful, to get this matter done, and there must be no chaos, and how to settle these refugees, I will soon consult with the Secretary of State on a plan. ”
Just when the heir of the Duchy of Novis was having a headache for the situation he was facing, Li Xun, who was far away in Goodfield City, entered the joy mode again, and the harvest was always pleasant.
First of all, after killing 3 necromancers, Li Xun got 460 experience points, it seems that the soul energy that the caster can absorb when he is killed is much higher than other professions, 2 level 4 mages gave Li Xun 160 points, 1 level 6 mage gave Li Xun 120 points, and slaughtered zombie babies gave 180 points, which is much higher than the berserkers and thieves killed in the Whispering Forest. Then there are the 3 necromancers' equipment: 2 fireball rings (depleted of mana), 1 recovery necklace (slowly restores mana when worn), 3 bone staff (contains mage armor, crowd panic, negative energy rays, depleted), 3 dimensional bags (many necromancers' spellcasting materials have been discarded because they are too evil), a "Complete Identification of Undead Creatures", a "Book of Death", an Anfude Ghost Eye, and three soul orbs.
The fireball ring Li Xun can replenish his mana by himself, and after bringing the 2 rings and the recovery necklace, he is finally not so shabby; Although the spells in the Bone Staff are good, they are the necromancer's standard equipment after all, and they can only be treasured to the bottom of the bag; "The Encyclopedia of Undead Biological Identification" has a lot of functions, which can broaden your horizons and increase your knowledge (Li Xun's browsing consequences have really increased a little knowledge), and it can also be used as a basic template for the biological transformation of the cemetery; "The Book of Death" is a qiē spell about necromancers collected by the dead Master Hurley, which is basically complete at level 1~4, and now it is basically cheaper than Li Xun; The Ghost Eye of Anfud is an undead-style alchemical item that allows you to check the vicinity of the signs set up by the Ghost Eye in advance, and in the cave, Hurley is the stronghold of this thing; The Soul Orb is just a common necromancer's essential alchemy item, which can collect, imprison, and preserve wandering souls, and with it, the material preparation of Li Xun's Master Tower is complete.
Organize and summarize the loot, use everything that can be used, and either destroy or hide what can't be used, and the rest is a summary of the battle. 15 Tian Eaters raided 3 Necromancers and 2 Vampires, which can only be said to be a narrow victory. Because this victory has too many prerequisites, it has no promotion value, and it cannot be used as a basic combat mode against undead creatures in the future. First of all, the 3 necromancers were not in the best condition, because it was a surprise attack, only 1 necromancer had 2 vampires with him, and the other 2 necromancers did not have a chance to summon their own undead creatures until they died; It is conceivable that the 3 necromancers have summoned their own transformed undead creatures, at least with these meat shields entangled with Tian Eaters, they can give them the opportunity to stabilize the situation and chant spells, and it is estimated that it will only be the Tian Eaters who will be defeated, after all, Tian Eaters have no ability to quickly break the defense except for a little strength and agility; Secondly, tian eaters are also considered undead creatures, and they are naturally immune to some charming, control, and negative spells, which is precisely the main reason for the defeat of the necromancer, and the necromancer may have mastered many kinds of spells, but most of the ones that can be instantaneous and rapid are still necromancy spells based on negative energy, which just can't cause fatal damage to tian eaters, so there is no meat shield to support and is close to tian eaters. The 3 necromancers did not show their due level, so they died aggrievedly under the claws of the level 2 cannon fodder class.
Although Tian Eater's table is dazzling, it is still accompanied by 4 deaths, 7 serious injuries and 4 minor injuries, which is probably the sadness of cannon fodder troops, all victories must rely on them to obtain with their lives. In this way, the original intention of cultivating low-level troops by himself now seems very stupid, no matter how good the low-level troops are, sooner or later they will fall on the battlefield, the training plan will be suspended, and the soul energy in the future will be squeezed to their best for their own use, and only the high-level troops with self-protection ability above the vampire are worth reconsidering the training plan.
If you encounter a necromancer again in the future, you still can't be careless, you can't apply this experience, you still have to be cautious, see the right time and then surprise and advance, otherwise victory and defeat are only a thought. The Tian Eater Squad is all wiped out, and he can go back and recruit again, but it's just the consumption of soul crystals, but if he is blocked, there will be no second life to exchange.
11 lightly and seriously injured Tian eaters can slowly recover in their soul space, but the shortage of those 4 Tian eaters can't be filled, if you use the soul Dao mark to return to Eternal Night City now, you are a level 4 mage, and you need to spend 40 soul crystals, that's more than 2 days of production, it's really a little reluctant, anyway, it doesn't seem to be much more fighting in the near future, it's better to go back and make up for it when the time is better!
Li Xun, who had made up his mind, soon entered the happy world of Mage Musai again.
