The Rise of the Cemetery

Chapter 0216

Haka scratched his smooth skull in embarrassment, desperately recalling the list of resources in his mind, and tried to match the number with the bright crystal in front of him. To be honest, among this huge pile of items, he could only recognize a few magic materials such as ruby, green agate, and tiger's eye, and he was completely blind to the others.

After all, Alsace is a hero in the cemetery, and his vision is still much higher than that of these native undead. He casually pulled out a crown from the pile of gold coins, looked around, shook his head and sighed: "Don't be too happy. Most of these are It's an ordinary decoration, I haven't seen much magical aura, and it's impossible to exchange for a lot of merit."

It is also difficult to discourage these undead. Moros still smiled cheerfully and said, "Whatever it is, as long as you can change things, this task is worth it!" Turning around, he saw the undead knight whose limbs had been removed Lying alone next to the "corpse pile", the soul fire looked dim and seemed to be extinguished at any moment, and suddenly jumped three feet high.

"Quick, quick...quickly heal that undead knight, that's our biggest gain!"

"What's the hurry, didn't you see that there is still a hole in Karoo's chest?"

"Don't, don't, don't..." The ghoul Karu was also in a hurry, and hurriedly waved his hands, his eyes narrowed into the shape of gold coins: "Give him treatment first, I can still stand it!"

Alsace, who had just waited for his mana to recover, was speechless and had no choice but to throw the death coil on the undead knight.

The rest of the work was much simpler. Alsace rode on the skeleton warhorse and brought over the bat demon mounts that were left 2 miles away. With these coolies, and the zombie boys recruited by the corpse king, these dead and alive black warriors, undead knights, bone horse remains, and two large iron boxes were quickly moved into the hall on the first floor of the castle. Waiting quietly for the arrival of the reception team.

The bodyguard of the skeleton mage Hakar hated being a good player in battle, but everyone was afraid that it would kill one or two more with its rough hands, so they didn't let it participate in the transportation.

While moving, the loud voice of the green-haired zombie Moros resounded over the castle.

"You say, can we pull this undead knight into our team? He looks very powerful!"

"You want to blind your heart! He hates you now, how can he do anything to you?"

"Hate me? He will appreciate me sooner or later!"

"Haha..." "Hehe..."

...

Elliott City.

It was late at night.

The lights in Li Xun's room were extinguished early, and everything seemed so peaceful and serene.

Ever since he knew that there was an archmage paying attention to this place all the time, Li Xun's behavior became cautious. First of all, Xi Lisi was dismissed by fooling Dafa, and the rest of the work will be carried out easily.

After repeated detection, Li Xun just confirmed that he was not being watched here, and then he lay down on the bed boldly and started multi-line operation.

To release so many undead here is purely courting death. Luckily, the five ghost killers I originally released were before entering the palace, otherwise there would be a possibility that people would discover my relationship with undead creatures, but now they have become my only eyes.

The ghost killer was the one who went to investigate the hidden altar last time. It is very likely that the other party has already discovered it, but the other party is not completely sure that it was sent by him. After all, he is still a mid-level mage in their eyes, a dispensable little person.

Under Li Xun's command, the three ghost killers who were wandering outside originally moved towards a certain direction in the south of the city, where Li Xun sensed an indescribable strangeness. The two ghost killers who had already entered the palace also began to slowly exit the area, trying to create a calm atmosphere, but in fact Younu had already arrived at the entrance of the underground passage last time.

At this time, Younu has completely entered the fighting mode. The black crystal armor covers her whole body so that it is impenetrable. Even the refraction of light when walking is much lighter than before. It seems that she has made a lot of progress recently. For Younv, Li Xun seldom directly controls it like commanding a ghost killer, but simply explains the action goals and plans, and the rest is done by herself, at most sharing her senses and touches, and providing some logistics support.

Like at this moment, after Li Xun issued a vague goal of exploring the mysterious altar, he focused his attention on the three ghost killers going to the south of the city. Younu only provided a spiritual shield, but did not help her. Cast any concealment spell.

Under the eyes of a great mage, any invisibility and anti-prediction spells will leave traces that can be traced. It is better to rely on Younu's special distorted vision to invisibly hide, but mental power shielding is necessary to prevent the opponent from There are magic circles such as detecting souls set up.

Moreover, the spiritual power shield provided by Li Xun is not the external blessing of others, but a kind of spiritual power distortion barrier projected from the depths of Younu's own soul. In contrast, it is more concealed and more durable. This is why only a guy like Li Xun, who can communicate with You Nu and have mastered the application of soul power to a certain extent, can stimulate You Nu's self-psychic protection through external forces, and achieve this kind of distorted spiritual space formation. The effect of barriers.

In short, Younu doesn't have any spell effects on her body now, and any spells that detect elemental changes will have no effect on her.

In order to prevent the fluctuation of the shadow jump from being noticed by the other party, You Nu has now used all the stealth and disappearance methods of the thief to the fullest, turning left and right before arriving at the entrance of the mysterious altar.

Sticking against the wall, You Nu slipped in silently. Although the full cover formed by the black spar is strong, when walking on the same hard stone slab, it seems to be walking on the soft and waveless water, more like glides gently.

With the help of Li Xun's soul vision, You Nu "saw" two red lines floating in mid-air in the passage, which were the breath traces left by someone passing through here. This kind of breath trace can only be discerned by a guy like Li Xun who has been dealing with souls all year round. However, with Li Xun's current level 3 soul talent, he can only distinguish the short-term breath residue in some closed places, but he can't get more information from it. Make a breakthrough in this area!

Judging from the remaining breath here, after I exited last time, two people entered here, but there was no sign of leaving. Could it be that they are still below?

With a little vigilance, You Nu has come to the end of the passage, standing quietly at the opening and looking at the inner hall.

Everything was the same as the last time I saw it. Although You Nu had never been here, she learned about the whole process of the last investigation through sharing her mind with her master. Of the aura traces identified just now, one of them stopped before the altar, while the other extended directly to the unknown light gate at the top of the altar.

Is the light gate a teleportation gate?

Li Xun's heart shrank suddenly. He had come into contact with quite a few portals. The light gate in front of him didn't fit any of them. On the contrary, it fit all the characteristics of the "Altar of Pain".

The Altar of Pain is an important auxiliary prop for holding blood sacrifice rituals. It can double the success rate of summoning alien creatures, but it is biased towards bloody and violent demons. The creation of the Altar of Pain is too cruel and tyrannical, and has always been rejected by orthodox mages, but it is unexpected that it can be seen here.

For this kind of thing, Li Xun has only seen it in some documents describing evil mages, so he is not very clear about its composition principle, operation method, and bonus effect, so he has no way of judging whether the pain altar in front of him is intended Summon something filthy and evil.

There was nothing to gain from the underground altar, but the three ghost killers who were scattered around the periphery and sneaked to the south of the city had some problems. So Li Xun had a brief exchange with You Nu, asking her to continue to monitor latently, while he turned his mind to another battlefield.

There are only 2 of the 3 ghost killers left. During the quarter of an hour when Li Xun was wandering underground, a ghost killer disappeared.

After communicating with the remaining two, Li Xun locked the approximate location of the ghost killer before he disappeared. It is a very common slum area, an important part of every city. Compared with the aristocratic area where Li Xun lives, the houses here are all simple and low wooden houses or sheds, and all the houses have only one characteristic, that is, they are dirty.

Low and disorganized houses, narrow and disgusting aisles with dirty sewage, all kinds of homeless people in strange costumes, prostitutes, thieves, and villains flood the "streets" here, but there is a hidden order in the chaos.

The last ghost killer disappeared near here, but the ghost killer that Li Xun placed his mind on roughly turned around here, but did not find any special existence that could threaten it.

The ghost killer moved quickly among the countless shadows among the houses, without any concern for his own safety. Since the opponent cannot be found through ordinary investigation methods, then use the method of scaring the enemy to lure the enemy out!

Li Xun indulged the two ghost killers to shuttle through every dark hut in an unscrupulous manner, while he began to use the method he had just learned to distinguish and analyze the traces of the characters' breath to slowly bring the surroundings into the sensing range. Even in order to expand his sensing range, Li Xun released 5 ghost killers, speeding up the density and frequency of their searches.

Half an hour passed without any gains...

An hour passed, and the ghost killer entrusted by Li Xun suddenly escaped from the shadows, and stood on the top of a house, slowly looking at the room below him.

This is an empty and narrow cabin with a radius of less than 10 meters. Several walls are damaged, and everything inside can be easily seen from the outside. A three-legged wooden table barely leaned against the wall without tipping over, a broken stool was placed in front of the table, and there was a wooden bed in the corner on the other side, without any bedding, only bare wooden boards. From the perspective of workmanship, it is very problematic whether people can sleep or not.

The whole house is full of dust, and there are broken cobwebs everywhere. It seems that it has been abandoned by the original owner for a long time. After a rough look, I really can't find any suspicious points. However, in Li Xun's soul vision, all the houses in this area can sense strong or light signs of human activities, even if it is more dilapidated than this room, there are traces of homeless people, but only here, There are no imprints to trace.
