The Rise of the Cemetery

Chapter 0253

The blood demon's expression moved, and the half-liquefied body under the white robe turned into a solid body again, and suddenly looked at the empty space in front of him.

There was no one there at first, but the moment the Gorefiend looked over, a faint human-shaped phantom began to emerge, and two long daggers were raised left and right, obliquely cutting at the drawn tree whip.

The explosion of metal impact came out, and the phantom in human form flew horizontally by the huge force, and the two tree whips also passed obliquely over the heads of the two, and they missed it by a few minutes.

Everyone was not stupid, and took advantage of this opportunity to attack the roots below them one after another, trying to get away before the next attack came. Of course, the kobold warlock was the one who moved the fastest. The simplest hand of flames was lightly applied to the roots, and the roots were loosened as quickly as possible, and retracted into the ground again.

"Save the blood demon first!" The leader of the thieves who flew in the air and had not yet landed roared. feet.

With the retreat of the roots, the blood demon moved his hands and feet, turned around and looked at the thief who had suddenly landed expressionlessly, his pointed tone twitched, showing an unknown smile, and suddenly turned back and rushed towards the tree rope in front of him demon.

The huge root system of the tree rope demon has covered the land with a radius of 20 meters. As long as it senses a slight vibration of the ground, it will break out of the ground and entangle the enemy. This is a good defensive method, but there is a prerequisite, that is, the enemy's speed cannot be too fast.

The first time you played this trick, everyone was unprepared, and the results were remarkable. It entangled all the enemies (except thieves) at once, but now that the blood demon has increased its speed, the roots that break through the ground are often slower, which is futile. Swings around the ground but can't find enemies.

Now that the goal has been achieved, there is no need for "games" below.

The blood demon pulled out a swift white mark, and quickly circled around the first tree rope monster that was still moving slowly, and his claws scratched the tree in a blink of an eye, and his body was covered with bruises. In the end, the Gorefiend pierced its opening fiercely with its big move "Splitting", then ignored it, and ran towards another intact tree rope demon.

The monster branch of the broken tree rope that had been severely ravaged shook its leaves, and the two tree whips that were still in good condition immediately waved and whipped towards the defenseless back of the blood demon. A huge amount of green juice splashed out from the opening, and it couldn't be stopped. These juices can also be regarded as the blood of the tree rope demon, and no one can stand such a gushing.

As a result, the tree whip that was halfway swung fell down weakly, and the tree rope demon desperately tightened the fibrous texture of the tree body, only then stopped the loss of body fluids. But just because it can't move, doesn't mean the enemies around it can't move either. The team of thieves suddenly found that the tree rope monster was in an embarrassing situation where it would bleed when it moved and was beaten if it didn't move. It would miss the opportunity, and leaned close to it, and all kinds of tricks were released one after another, vowing to help the dead companion revenge.

The tree rope demon who had been beaten for a while curled up, shook its branches and leaves and made a babbling sound of begging. But everyone has seen how cruelly they abuse their companions, so they will be merciful. Oil was poured on the fire, and the fire ignited soaring into the sky. In the crackling fire, the tree rope demon no longer cared about the wounds on his body, and violently slapped the ground with a tree whip, letting out a sharp wail. After struggling for a long time, he finally fell silent. It became a violently burning torch.

After everyone dealt with the first tree rope monster, they turned around and found that the second tree rope monster had also fallen silently to the ground. The stems are being tasted carefully.

"This is the heart of the demon tree. It is also a good magic material. Many mages will collect this kind of thing at a high level." He embraced the thick and thin heart of the tree, and introduced it actively.

"We have no problem here, right? The scene seems to be getting a little big." The blood demon asked lightly.

"If you talk about the beasts here, then you don't need to worry. The Rope Demon is already the top predator in the food chain here. No big guy dares to step into its hunting area easily, but those mages are hard to say , we need to move quickly."

"You lead the way."

In a few words, all the problems were explained. The team simply cleaned up the battlefield, took away those valuable items, poured fire oil on the remains of their companions and burned them, and then went back into the jungle.

...

Pierpont, the capital of the Principality of Novis.

In front of the tower of the Mage Association, a simple noble carriage slowly stopped on the side of the road, and Jack got out of it with a solemn expression.

When he stepped into the hall of the association, the mage apprentices who met on the road saw the brand new gray mage robes on his body, and gave way and bowed. Jack's face flushed slightly, and a sense of pride filled his heart spontaneously. He calmed down a little by arranging his clothes, and when he raised his head again, he had already put on a polite and indifferent smile that is common to mages. .

"I need to see His Excellency Andreas Di Lasso. Please tell me when you report that Master Li Xun ordered me to come. I have important information." Jack calmly ordered the two apprentice mages at the reception desk. Dao, the tone was low and solemn, and the two apprentices couldn't help feeling nervous.

Originally, a low-ranking sorcerer was not qualified to directly ask to see His Excellency the great sorcerer, but upon hearing the name of sorcerer Li Xun, the two sorcerer apprentices trembled slightly, rubbing their arms and foreheads, as if recalling something bad. In the end, they looked at each other in dismay, gritted their teeth and picked up the communication crystal.

Your Excellency the Archmage replied very quickly, and soon, Master Jack entered the short-distance teleportation array on the second floor under the guidance of an apprentice.

The place where the Archmage met Jack was still his strangely shaped living room. Recently, he has been busy with the storage of spell supplies in Thunder Fortress. He hasn't had a good rest for a long time, and even his favorite spell experiments are all on hold. But even so, upon hearing Li Xun's name, he still received this little messenger without hesitation.

Moreover, the news brought by this messenger was so important that even an archmage turned pale. Not caring to hide his shock and horror, the archmage took the trouble to question him many times before placing Jack in his library to wait for news, while he teleported to a secret room.

With the operation of the magic circle, the scene in the secret room changed suddenly, and several faint figures of light and shadow appeared in the void.

"What's the matter, Andaures? This is not the stipulated contact time. Is there something wrong with you?" One of the phantoms took the lead to condense into shape, revealing an old man wearing a robe of stars and a crown on his head.

"Your Excellency the great Mage Xingchen, I have important information that has not been verified and needs to be reported to you immediately! It is very important!" The archmage replied solemnly.

"Oh? It's so important, it's worth your special use of this reserved teleportation circle. Could it be that Pierpont has been invaded?" Another old voice sounded, and the condensed human figure was the legendary mage, Siris' teacher. Tello.

Master Xingchen glanced at Tello dissatisfied, but didn't say anything. The female disciple was forcibly forced to leave. After all, they were in love with each other, but just received news the day before yesterday that even the only remaining orthodox bloodline of the Bramila royal family, His Majesty Hansen, was in danger of having problems. Among them Everything is an offense to him, a legendary mage.

Ever since the kingdom of Mororheed collapsed, he hid in a small corner town and lingered on his last breath. This once prominent and legendary mage had become a lost dog. The interests that are directly related to him have been repeatedly touched by others, and he has long been filled with anger. Although he still takes the overall situation into consideration, his usual behavior and speech bring out a strong smell of gunpowder.

Master Xingchen, who has worked with him for a long time, knows this well, and he let it go after several attempts to persuade him to no avail.

"Tell me, what kind of news is it?" Master Xingchen urged.

At this time, those figures had also condensed into shape, and they were the remaining archmages of Novus Principality.

"Just now, Li Xun's disciple came to inform that a large number of undead activities were found in the Whispering Forest. The Undead Council planned to set up an outpost of the undead there, but his teacher, Master Angelet, tried to destroy it. There is still a holy necromancer entrenched there, he is unable to expel it, so..."

"Undead Council?"...

"Undead Fortress?"...

"Holy Necromancer?"...

Harsh words flowed out from the mouth of Archmage Andorius, making everyone's hearts tense, and even the two legendary mages looked solemn.

"Why do I feel so familiar with this rhythm?" The legendary mage Troo muttered to himself. His voice was not low enough to be heard clearly by everyone present, and the coldness in his words made people feel chills in their hearts.

The lessons learned from the Kingdom of Morrohede are well known to everyone present. They were caught off guard by the United Council of the Undead, and they used small disturbances at the border to attract the attention of the kingdom. The fatal blow made a cover.

So the accuracy of the information that has emerged today cannot be evaluated, but it must not be ignored when it comes to the United Council of the Undead. Holy Necromancer? That is the most advanced combat power of the Undead Council except for the five Undead Liches. Why did they suddenly appear in the Whispering Forest on the northern coast of the Principality of Novus?

Are you planning to attack from the back? Or do you intend to divert Novus Principality's attention to the front? Or maybe there is another conspiracy. But no matter which one it is, it shows that the Undead Council is sharpening its sword against Novus, and a sense of doomsday that the catastrophe is coming suddenly floods everyone's hearts.
