Chapter 352: The Mighty Lich
The name of the existence of the lich is quite large in the entire undead system, if the necromancer is an ordinary creature who practices undead magic, then the lich is also a powerful undead who practices magic.
Although necromancers and lichs are not technically the same existence, in the eyes of outsiders, the lich has already become an advanced position of necromancer.
There are many other reasons for this, but one of the main reasons is that the lich itself is more powerful than the necromancer, in addition to the fact that the necromancer likes to transform himself into a lich to survive when he gets old.
When it comes to undead magic, living beings can learn it, but even if the same magic is used in the hands of the living and the undead, the magic of the undead will definitely be more powerful.
The magic that allows countless living people to take risks learning before they die, although its strength is not on the attack power, but it cannot be denied that the magic that can make so many living people interested in it, that necromantic magic still has its own uniqueness. As the most proficient in undead magic, no matter how strong or weak they are, most of the members of their clan have outstanding skills in the cultivation of undead magic.
It can almost be said that as long as it is a lich, then with the power of necromantic magic, there are basically no weaklings in their clan.
In that sense, the appearance of the lich at that time was not good news for Zhou Tian. Because according to the strength of that lich, he became their opponent. It will no longer be easy for them to win on Sunday.
Of course, there are disadvantages and advantages, although the strength of the lich at that time was quite good, if the two sides fought, Zhou Tian was not too sure that he could defeat the other party. However, while the Lich has a strong attack power, it also has a weakness that most mages have.
The Lich is not physically strong, even if it is an undead.
Of course, the Lich has other means of compensating for their weaknesses, under the influence of the Lich's secret magic. Often, the Lich will have a life box. As long as the Lich's lifebox is not hasteed. Then the Lich will not lose his life in battle.
As for the pros and cons of the life box, they don't really have to kill the lich next Sunday anyway. For Sunday, it was all they needed to do now was to let the lich go. So, right now, such a mage-type opponent. Although its attack power is quite strong. But if they were to get close to each other on Sunday. It was definitely easier to defeat the Lich than it was to destroy the other undead.
Because of the identity of the opponent at that time, Zhou Tian and his party had some corresponding activities in their hearts.
But obviously, no matter what they thought about it on Sunday. The lich was not affected by their opinions, and what it should have been, and what it still does.
As a result, when he saw that Zhou Tian and they were already close to him, the lich did not hesitate, and he directly attacked Zhou Tian and their group of enemies.
"Up!" Within the realm of the undead, there are few things that can be hidden from those who are undead. So, although they had only just arrived at this junction on Sunday, the lich had actually been preparing for a long time. In this way, when the lich was about to attack Zhou Tian and them, he didn't need to make any preparations at all, and simply gave an order, and immediately countless undead killed Zhou Tian and them.
At the same time, just as the undead summoned by the lich in advance followed its orders to kill Zhou Tian and them, the lich itself launched a corresponding attack on Zhou Tian and them at that time.
"Bone spear!"
"Bone Wall!"
“……”
Spell after spell was unleashed from the lich's hand, though the lich was not very good at attacking magic at the time. However, according to its cultivation, even if it was only some common undead magic released at that time, even those ordinary magic showed amazing power in its hands.
They didn't directly attack Zhou Tian and their powerful enemies, and the lich knew that with Zhou Tian's strength, even if they encountered an attack by undead magic, there would be no danger at all.
In this way, the lich, who possessed no low intelligence, simply gave up the attack to kill Zhou Tian and his opponents at that time, and after using the undead he summoned to hold them back, he also launched an attack on those monsters who were badly damaged.
In terms of strength, those injured monsters may have been stronger than Zhou Tian one by one. And now, although the amount of blood is not much, their basic strength can still be brought into play. However, because of the role of the undead realm, the lich's actions at that time still played a big role.
What if even those monsters weren't affected by injuries at all?
No matter how agile the monsters were, when the lich launched an area-based attack on them, the monsters were doomed to be unable to dodge that attack at that time. In this way, there were no surprises at the time, and most of the lich's attacks were successful in falling on the monsters.
Although those monsters still have enough movement ability, many of the lich's attacks at that time fell into the air. However, because of the situation of those monsters, even if most of the attacks fall into the air, as long as a small number of attacks can hit them, it will be enough to kill those monsters.
According to the situation of the monsters, with only a trace of blood skin left, it is estimated that even if the lich's attack only touches them, it is estimated that those monsters can be killed by then. And because of the undead realm, the monster can't recover its blood, and those king-level monsters that are important combat power are okay. Those monsters of average strength could not be treated by Zhou Tian, and when they let the lich's attack hit them with bloody skins, then their fate was completely predictable.
"Bang bang bang!" After the lich launched an attack, there was soon a sound of Zhou Tian's rear door falling to the ground, although Zhou Tian did not look back, but he knew very well in his heart that there were only quite a lot of monsters that died in the hands of the lich at that time.
"It can't go on like this." Although according to the situation of their team on Sunday, there were few monsters that died at that time. However, the strength of their team was not very good on Sunday, if they let that lich kill another batch like this. Sunday can be imagined. What will become of their team after that?
Even Zhou Tian knew when he took action against the lich that they would definitely have to pay a price for dealing with the saint-level undead. However, without posing any threat to the other party, a large number of members have died at the hands of the other party. That's what Zhou Tian couldn't bear.
Even those monsters are useless. In the next battle. They might just as well be a boost for Sunday. Now, if Zhou Tian really did nothing and let the lich kill his companion, then the strength of Zhou Tian's side would be weakened. Then the next battle will not be easy to fight.
In this way, according to the situation at that time, after the lich launched a series of attacks on the undead under Zhou Tian, seeing the other party's actions, Zhou Tian naturally reacted at that time.
The figure disappeared in an instant, and when Zhou Tian reappeared, it was already running to the lich's side.
Teleport Ring!
In the past, because of the role of the undead realm, although Zhou Tian had a lot of special abilities, but under the suppression of the other party's domain, Zhou Tian's abilities were not able to be expressed at all. Zhou Tian didn't even use that equipment in the previous battle.
Although in normal times, Zhou Tian has been trying hard to restrain himself and let himself not use the strength of his equipment to fight. However, at the moment, when facing a strong enemy like the Lich, no matter how restrained Zhou Tian is, it is impossible to let the other party continue to fight like that for a situation that has not yet appeared.
In this way, after Zhou Tian's effectiveness in the undead realm finally decreased, he directly used the ability of the teleportation ring to appear next to the lich. Then, Zhou Tian didn't give the lich much time to react, and after appearing next to him, he immediately punched him in the head at that moment.
According to Zhou Tian's opinion, since the Lich of Zhilu Dao now belongs to the type of attack with high attack and low defense, then he can directly kill him by surprise. Zhou Tian believed that if the lich was allowed to face Zhou Tian's attack without any defense, then the probability of being hit was quite high. In this way, according to the situation of the lich, it is estimated that Zhou Tian only needs one attack to smash his head.
According to the situation of the lich, if Zhou Tian directly broke his head, it is estimated that even if it does not die, it will not be able to recover in a short time. And in the process of that lich's recovery, Zhou Tian and they could go to other places to kill those saint-level undead one by one, and finally achieve the goal of destroying this undead realm.
It's just that, obviously, although Zhou Tian's idea is good, if he really thinks that they can achieve their goal so easily and kill that lich directly, then he will also underestimate that lich.
Although Zhou Tian didn't use the teleportation ring much, after this war, Zhou Tian still used this equipment more or less. Especially when luring that hellfire, Zhou Tian didn't use the ability of that teleportation ring less. And just using his own equipment power on the other party's territory, it is impossible for Zhou Tian not to let those undead find out.
In this way, since he already knew that Zhou Tian had the equipment of the teleportation ring, how could those undead not be on guard in that regard.
In fact, the lich seemed to be bent on killing the monsters, but in fact, he was secretly paying attention to Zhou Tian's movements. In this way, when Zhou Tian suddenly appeared next to the lich with the teleportation ring, the lich had actually discovered his actions.
The lich's melee abilities weren't great, though, if it weren't for a surprise attack. Zhou Tian wanted to kill the other party with an open blow, but it was destined to be impossible. After all, no matter how special the other party's situation is, he is also a saint-level powerhouse, and according to the previous circumstances, the other party's saint-level cultivation is even stronger than his king-level boss.
Although the cultivation of the two sides is theoretically about the same, once the two sides do not use the upper realm to fight, those ten king-level monsters may not be able to fight against a powerful saint-level undead. After all, compared to Zhou Tian and other monsters who have been upgraded, those undead who have practiced on their own for an unknown number of years, they will definitely be able to control their own strength better.
This is the case now, although Zhou Tian and the lich are theoretically on the same level. Even on Sunday, he had more of an advantage in close combat. However, when its sneak attack fails, it goes head-to-head with the opponent. Even if it's a melee battle, Zhou Tian can't fight that lich.
It's not that just because a mage isn't good at melee combat, he doesn't really have any melee abilities. As long as you control your strength well enough. Magic can also exert great destructive power in melee combat.
"Not good!" Zhou Tian launched an attack on the lich, but the lich easily avoided it at that time, and Zhou Tian knew it in his heart. At the moment, I'm afraid that this battle will not be easy to fight.
It's just that. Even Zhou Tian already had that idea. But when the lich really attacked him, Zhou Tian was still beaten by the lich's attack at that time.
Although the cooldown of the teleportation ring was not long, it was only for a short period of time. It was enough for the lich to launch an attack on him. An invisible fluctuation was generated in the lich's hand, and then Zhou Tian only felt an invisible energy rushing to his front and back, and then he heard an explosion, and the others directly let the explosion fly back.
"It's so strong!" Although it is said that Zhou Tian will not be killed by the lich's attack because of his good condition. However, when Zhou Tian looked back and saw that the attack that blew him out of the air had not caused any damage to the lich, he still couldn't help but sigh quietly at that time.
It wasn't hard to unleash a powerful attack, at least if he wanted to, he could attack the lich at any time that was much stronger than before.
However, although Zhou Tian's attack is powerful, if you want Zhou Tian to be like the other party, launch a magic trick but only hurt the other party and not hurt yourself who is closer to the magic, then this kind of thing is not something Zhou Tian can do.
It's not that Zhou Tian's strength is weaker than that of the lich, the difference is in control. Zhou Tian's attack is an attack, and his attack is already out of control after the shot, either directly hitting the enemy, or, it is estimated that he will not know where he will fly.
And although the strength of that lich is comparable to Zhou Tian, its control over his own ability is terrifyingly strong, and the equally powerful magic is in the hands of the other party, and he can play as he wants, if he wants to hit the left, he will be left, and if he wants to hit the right, he will be right. Anyway, under the control of that lich, its strength can definitely exert two hundred percent of its original destructive power.
The strength is equal, one side can have such a strong control ability, needless to say, if there is a war, Zhou Tian will definitely be abused by such an opponent. What made Zhou Tian even more unhappy was that he knew that he could not be the opponent of the other party, but because of the environment he was in at the time, he couldn't even if he wanted to fight with the other party.
As a result, although the lich's performance was to scare Zhou Tian and his party, after watching the lich's performance, Zhou Tian and they would not directly let the other party scare away. As a result, after watching the lich's performance, Zhou Tian still attacked the other party without any hesitation.
"Let's get on it!" The other party behaved so strongly, and Zhou Tian knew that they would not have any hope of winning against such an opponent alone, so they could only join forces to deal with each other at that time.
The monster that had the ability to get close to the lich like Zhou Tian leaned towards the lich in all its power at that time. And those monsters who didn't have the ability to get close to the lich also launched all kinds of powerful skills at that time. As a result, under the effect of those skills, the lich was unable to dodge the skills, and directly caused Zhou Tian and them to become 'seriously injured'.
It's a pity that the so-called serious injuries must be quite fatal to living beings, but even for monsters, it is impossible to affect their performance, let alone the lich with a life box.
To put it bluntly. In the case of the lich, if someone really wanted to kill him, if he didn't kill him all at once, even if he was seriously injured, it wouldn't have any effect on the lich.
In this way, although the attacks of those skills at that time seemed to have caused a lot of results, in fact, due to the lack of follow-up, they did not cause fatal damage to the lich in the end.
Of course, Zhou Tian and they also have follow-up arrangements, and their skills can't kill the lich. But. If only if the lich had already been badly damaged. If they rushed out to attack the lich at that time, it was unlikely that the lich at that time would be able to block their attack on Sunday.
As long as the lich doesn't have the power to stop their attack next day, then what happens next will be fairly simple.
Hit hard and then killed, if that lich were to end up like that. Sunday is absolutely happy to see it. Merely. Obviously, that lich can't fight Zhou Tian in the end. It is estimated that it is unlikely that they will be taken down by Zhou Tian by this means.
In fact, just as they were emerging on Sunday, the Lich revealed the attack he had been secretly preparing.
"Soul Burial!" A roar of rage. I didn't see any movement from the lich, but a large number of souls suddenly floated out of his body. And after those souls flew out of the lich's body, they immediately flew towards Zhou Tian and the others nearby.
Because there were a lot of souls flying out of the lich's body, all the monsters that were ready to get close to the lich and attack him at that time ended up being targeted by those souls without exception. As a result, when those souls floated towards Zhou Tian and them, although they didn't want to touch those souls. But because the circle centered on the lich was not large at that time, when those spirits floated out, Zhou Tian was not prepared for this.
Without preparation, you can't hide from the approach of those spirits. In that case, there was no doubt that the attack of the lich at that time was not something they could avoid on Sunday.
"Boom!" It seemed to be the same type of magic that had attacked Zhou Tian before, just after the lich controlled a large number of souls and rushed to Zhou Tian's vicinity. With the lich's control, the spirits exploded in a flash. And under the explosion of those lich attacks, Zhou Tian and his party at that time suffered a lot under the attack of the other party.
Just hearing an explosion, Zhou Tian didn't even figure out what was going on, so they just let the explosion blow up. According to the situation at that time, no matter what aspect you look at, Zhou Tian's situation is definitely not good.
"Damn!" Not to mention the other monsters, Zhou Tian suffered two losses in a row at the hands of that lich at that time, although he did not die in the hands of the other party, but Zhou Tian was really uncomfortable at that time.
If Zhou Tian was given a chance, it was estimated that at this time, Zhou Tian really didn't want to let that lich's magic hit him again. One attack can cost one-tenth of Zhou Tian's blood, and if the other party is allowed to do this again, Zhou Tian doesn't know how long he can hold on.
However, whether they can persist or not, according to the situation at that time, Zhou Tian and the lich must have a battle, in this kind of battle where you die or I die, even if Zhou Tian's heart is already uneasy, but when fighting, Zhou Tian's movements are still not slow at all.
"Fight." Having just been hit by the lich, Zhou Tian ignored his injuries at the time, and after gritting his teeth, he flew towards the location of the lich.
Zhou Tian knew very well that according to the performance of the lich, he should not be regarded as a mage professional, but if he wanted to deal with the other party by some small means, it would still not be possible to succeed. Now, Sunday's only chance of victory lies in the lich's profession. No matter how powerful the lich is, the fact that he is not good at melee combat as a mage will not change anything, and in this case, Zhou Tian doesn't need to pay attention to it too much, as long as he has the time to make a move against the lich, no matter how many injuries he suffers. As long as he doesn't die and can successfully get close to the other party, then Sunday's battle with it will be half of the first victory.
In this way, after Zhou Tian knew his situation at that time, he naturally showed no mercy to the lich at all.
As a result, just after Zhou Tian made up his mind in his heart. It allowed the lich's magic to strike, but its figure flickered before reappearing behind the lich. Then, Zhou Tian launched an attack on the lich.
In the face of Zhou Tian's attack at that time, the lich didn't seem to be as prepared as before. Although he still didn't let Zhou Tian hit, in the face of Zhou Tian's attack, the lich at that time took the decision to dodge.
In this way, when Zhou Tian's attack fell, the lich at that time directly lowered his head, and easily let Zhou Tian's attack fall into the void.
But. Sunday's attack naturally won't end so easily. When the attack just missed. Zhou Tian's hand pressed down, and he was ready to continue to attack it.
It's just that Zhou Tian knows how to deal with it, and now the lich is after knowing Zhou Tian's actions. Naturally, he also knows how to deal with the situation.
"Bone Shield!" Just as Sunday's attack fell on the lich again. Because there is already time to prepare. At that time, the lich did not dodge again, but directly used the necromantic magic he was good at to deal with Zhou Tian's attack.
According to the strength of the lich, the magic he uses is said to be a mass product. But the bone shield that the lich had created, even if it looked good, was far more beneficial than an ordinary bone shield.
Bone shields made with necromancy are usually grayish-white, although that kind of bone shield has a certain amount of defense. But even if an adult comes a few more times, it can break it, although it can play some role at a critical moment, but on the whole, it still doesn't play a big role.
And the magic used by the lich was also ordinary bone shield magic. However, because the lich has an amazing control over his own magic, the result is that the same kind of magic can only respond to the emergency in the hands of other undead, but in its hands, that magic really has a certain amount of protection.
"Bell!" A punch fell, and when Zhou Tian struck the silver-white bone shield made by the lich, he immediately felt a sharp pain in his right hand enter his brain. If it weren't for Zhou Tian's self-control, which was not bad, he almost covered his right hand and screamed in pain.
"I'll bear it!" Although it was said that Zhou Tian suffered a small loss again at the hands of that lich at that time, but in the same situation at that time, Zhou Tian did not have time to think about those problems. When the attack failed, a new operation began.
"Divine punishment!" Although Zhou Tian could continue to attack, after repeatedly suffering losses in the face of that lich's general means, Zhou Tian at that time did not dare to attack the other party easily.
In this way, for his own safety, Zhou Tian naturally used the skill on the lich, after all, if he used the skill, even if the attack still failed in the end, but the result was that he only returned in vain, and he would not hurt himself again at that time.
It's just that when they dealt with that lich on Sunday, they knew that that the lich's long-range attack ability was quite good. It was also for this reason that in dealing with the lich, they had been trying their best to get close to each other on Sunday. Originally, according to Zhou Tian's idea, only when they got close to the lich would they have a chance to take down the other party. And in such a situation, it is conceivable that when Zhou Tian was not far from the lich, he actually used a skill attack on him, and this reaction was a bit inappropriate.
After all, not only are the skills not only attacking at a large distance, but most of the skills also have their own locking abilities, so in that case, there is actually no obvious difference between attacking the Lich from a distance and at a close distance. In this way, it was not said at that time whether Zhou Tian's attack could pose a threat to the other party. It is said that Zhou Tian's action of launching a skill attack on that lich at that time can be said to have wasted the fighter plane he obtained by getting close to the other party.
Of course, although Zhou Tian's actions were a little inappropriate, in the end, Zhou Tian also had a plan to deal with that lich. As such, after his attack was unleashed, and he finally succeeded in hitting the lich, he quickly calmed down at that point.
No matter how good the skills were, according to the situation at the time, it was impossible for them to take each other down with some skills when they had a limited number of members. So, as with their plans, they had no other way out of dealing with the lich than melee combat.
In this way, although he had suffered a lot of losses at the hands of the lich before. At the same time, Zhou Tian also expected that with the strength of that lich, he wanted to take down the other party, but he was afraid that it would be very difficult. However, in the case that the skill had already made some contributions, for the sake of the final victory, Zhou Tian still gave up at that time to continue to attack the lich with the skill, and after taking out his weapon, he also slashed at the lich.
"Bell bell bell ......" bursts of sound continued to sound, when Zhou Tian launched an attack on the lich, at the beginning all of his attacks were blocked by the lich according to the defense of the bone shield. However, as Zhou Tian continued to attack, he soon found that his attack was still effective at that time.
It wasn't Sunday's attack that really threatened the lich.
Although Zhou Tian's attack was not weak, the lich's bone shield was not bad, and according to the situation at the time, after Zhou Tian's attacks fell again and again, he finally let the lich block it with a bone shield.
But no matter how strong the lich was, after launching an all-out attack on him on Sunday, the lich must have been careful in the process of resisting.
In this way, in the case of resisting Zhou Tian's attack with his heart, he must have put the lich's energy on Zhou Tian's body. As a result, when most of the energy falls on the lich, there is no way for the lich to block attacks from other places.
In the end, because of the reason to resist Zhou Tian's attack, the lich at that time directly let Zhou Tian contain him. In this way, with the lich's energy highly concentrated on Zhou Tian, when other monsters attacked him again, that lich would not be able to spare much energy to pay attention to those opponents. (To be continued......)
