The territory of the United Council of the Dead, the territory of the former Kingdom of Morohed. 『』【No pop-up novel network】

An undead war between the undead and the undead is on the verge of breaking out.

Such a strange war has never appeared in the history of the Crane plane, so it has attracted the attention of all the high-level people in the plane.

Although everyone has seen the decline of the Council of the Dead recently, there are still not many people who dare to challenge the authority of the lich like this sudden cemetery force. The tens of millions of terrifying undead armies in the territory of the Council of the Dead are one thing, and the bigger one is the strength of the legendary lich itself.

Legendary Lich!

It's a terrifying magical creature that can make people tremble just by hearing the name.

Their predecessors, each of the legendary mages, were already the brightest stars in the history of the magic of the Crane plane before they became lichs. Their fame has been passed down to countless spellcasters, and their exploits have been engraved in every chapter and page of the history of magic.

It can be said that many of the current spell schools, and even many spell organizations that are active within the Mage Guild, were formed and founded by them themselves. Seriously, the great development of magic in the Klein plane is inseparable from their promotion and participation.

Unfortunately, this qiē splendor turned from light to darkness after the Lich Reincarnation Ritual.

Hundreds or even thousands of years of mental tempering and suffering, the death of relatives, lovers, friends, and partners one after another, their hearts gradually fell into darkness, and their feelings became weaker and weaker. The splendor of humanity that once shone on them was now replaced by a thick coldness and evil.

They became them.

In their eyes, human beings are no longer the same kind that walk side by side, but a backward species with a weak body and superfluous feelings. The laws and regulations that they used to work with their own hands have become stereotypes that bind their hands and feet.

Contradictions are accumulating, and rifts are widening. Finally, one day, a conflict broke out between the lich group and the human spellcasters.

Countless lich believers, necromancers, were besieged by angry mages, either from the spells they loved, or from the gallows, at the stake. Many continental countries have even begun to ban the research of undead, necromancy, and psychic spells, and have massively hunted down and killed spellcasters of the dark line.

As the largest mage organization in the Crane plane, the Mage's Guild has also eliminated the remnants of the lich from within.

For a while, the existence of the undead spellcasters in the entire continent fell to the freezing point.

Although on the bright side, the Klein Continent can no longer see the figure of the necromancer. But in secret, there are still many orthodox mages who are either greedy for the ruthlessness of necromancy, or can't resist the temptation of eternal life, and are still studying the relevant content.

And those old lichs have hidden in hidden tombs, land x, or deep mountains and old forests, wilderness swamps, and continue their isolated magic research. There are also some lichs who simply stepped out of the Crane plane and began an adventurous career of plane exploration.

In this environment, the once brilliant Lord of the Dead, Sean VII, was unwilling to remain silent, and secretly contacted and subdued the few remaining legendary lichs in the Crane plane, and after nearly a thousand years of dormancy and development, he finally broke out and took the vast territory and weak protection power of the Moroel Hed Kingdom in one fell swoop.

When the Council of the Dead raised its banner on the continent of Klein, the surging tide of public opinion on the continent finally failed to withstand the horror of the death of the legendary lich, and the First War of the Dead ended in a mournful way.

Since then, the horrors of the legendary lich have once again been imprinted into the souls of all.

If there is no Mage Guild to take the lead, if there is no all-out effort of the church forces, relying only on those mortal armies of individual countries, there is no way to exterminate the undead kingdom that has been huddled together.

But today, the general perception of people on this continent has been reversed.

An army of mysterious undead who have never heard of before is challenging the authority of the legendary lich in the heart of the Council of the Dead, and is marching towards the legendary lich's lair, the capital of the undead, in a devastating assault.

For a time, words such as "civil war of the undead" and "lich infighting" filled the taverns and taverns in all cities of the Crane plane. All the well-informed large organizations and large forces have turned their eyes to the interior of the Council of the Dead, watching every step of development and every change there.

Rumors that the undead are in decline are even more noisy!

However, in stark contrast to the heated discussion among the people, it is the calmness and indifference of those legendary classes. Except for a few legendary powerhouses who are at odds with the legendary lich, most of the legends are watching the imminent war of the undead as spectators.

For a short period of time, even the Necromancer Rebellion that broke out in the Duchy of Novis had a bit of a dead end.

……

Just when the eyes of the entire plane were focused on the vicinity of Kuroki Lake, 300 miles north of the Capital of the Undead, Li Xun, a participant in the Great War, was still squatting in the body of the corpse demon Mars every day like a nobody, studying the Book of Death.

You're right, the Grave Demon has a name now. Mars, an ordinary name! This is the name Li Xun gave to him when he was promoted to the second order after the corpse tomb demon devoured a large cemetery the day before yesterday. A half-life, half-constructed special living life like a corpse demon is a hundred times more difficult to advance than an ordinary creature at a time.

But each advancement is usually accompanied by an exponential increase in strength.

In Li Xun's impression, the only living beings in the cemetery that are similar to the corpse demon Mars are probably the iron-headed Issa and the ghost warship Thercanes.

The biggest and most conspicuous change in the corpse demon Mars now is the area it occupies, which has reached a radius of nearly a kilometer. Of course, this refers to the state of travel when it is extended. If it is necessary to fight, it can also shrink its body back to form a cemetery city with a radius of almost 500 meters. All the walls, battle forts, and ghostfire towers are made up of towering and sturdy evil tombstones, which are haunting and have their own terrible desecrations.

It's a pity that most of these things have no effect in the civil war of the undead, so Li Xun purely uses Mars as a comfortable mobile car.

As for the so-called Book of Death, all necromancers will make a special piece of magic equipment with their own hands to record a qiē necromancer spell they have mastered. It is a terrible and evil object made with human skin as the cover, human corpse as ink, and human bones as the frame. When a non-undead caster reads this book, he or she is subjected to effects such as "Undead Whispering", "Life Sucking", and "Blood Withering" at all times.

Of course, what has just been listed is only the Book of Death of the ordinary necromancer. And what is being held in Li Xun's hands at this moment is the half-plane treasure trove obtained from Shane VII, a book of death made by the legendary Lich Nonos himself.

Although this book is not yet at the level of legendary items, it is not far off. It is even densely recorded with all the known necromancy knowledge and spells in the Klein plane, and even those famous 9th-order spells are a lot. However, the most precious thing is the only super-level spell included in this book, the Undead Scourge.

As the top-level and most ruthless attack method in the undead spells, the Undead Scourge cannot be completed by a legendary lich alone, but is a magical profanity ritual that is so cumbersome and complicated that even the lich has to scratch his head. It forcibly transforms all living beings who die within the reach of the spell during the Scourge of the Dead into undead creatures, and enslaves them to the host of the ceremony.

It's also the quickest way for legendary lichs to conquer legions of the undead.

This Book of Death was preserved as a treasure of the Eye of the Array in the last Orohr German Disaster Ritual launched by the Moroh German Capital, and now it is in the hands of Li Xun. If the Council of the Dead wants to launch another undead scourge in the Duchy of Novis, I'm afraid they will have to think of another way to find a treasure of the same rank that can replace the Book of Death.

With the abundance of the Legendary Lich's treasury, it's not impossible, but it's not that easy. It not only needs to fit the dark nature of the undead catastrophe ritual, but also needs to be able to carry the circulation of massive dead qi and the impact of thousands of dead souls, such undead treasures are only a handful even in the history of the Crane plane.

It is because of the existence of these undead treasures that the legendary lich can be freed from the heavy magical rituals and unleash their maximum combat power. Otherwise, how could the five legendary lichs trapped in the Scourge of the Dead be able to resist the combined attack of the two legendary protectors.

It's safe to say that taking one of these artifacts from the Council of the Dead would be equivalent to locking up a legendary lich's full combat power, and also reducing their safety by two points when casting the Undead Scourge.

How does Li Xun, a 16th-level "little" mage, know this kind of thing, or only know a little after listening to the undead master Kel's Sugarde.

Therefore, he became more and more interested in this undead treasure.

As a legendary lich who has been "missing" for more than 1,100 years, Nonos was once a prominent figure in the Crane plane, but unfortunately it was eventually lost in the boundless sea of stars.

This kind of non-personal exploration of the stars has always been like this. Once the Void Storm drains all the mana, or is trapped in an alien dimension and cannot be turned back, then the character is dead to its native plane. At least many famous legends in history were removed from the Mage Guild because they could not be turned back, and they were classified as the dead.

In fact, with Li Xun's current qualifications, it is still too difficult to read magic books of this level.

Because it's a living book!
