The Rise of the Cemetery

(Crazy begging for 17K main station subscription! It is related to my minimum living allowance!)

How terrible a holy lich's soul fire would be if it exploded, this is beyond the imagination of ordinary undead.

But Lux's soul fire self-detonation in front of him was absolutely unreasonable, not only did it not bring any harm to Li Xun, even the air around Zihuo didn't vibrate.

The whole self-explosion seemed to be some kind of illusion.

Without any hesitation, the mysterious and fantastic silver rune chains emerged densely again, dragging out all kinds of broken soul fragments that cannot be perceived by the naked eye and spiritual power from the void of nothingness, and putting them together again.

Thirty fingers later, Zihuo appeared in the panorama again.

Lux opened his eyes when the chaotic shattered consciousness was reassembled into Lich's memory. But what he saw was not the sparkling magic gemstone in his Lich's phylactery, but some scenes and some "people" that he didn't want to see the most.

Damn it, my soul is bound!

This is really bad enough for a lich.

The lich family, as a typical example of soul immortality, is no longer restricted by the body's load. If it weren't for the influence of the habitual consciousness of the predecessor, I am afraid that I would not deliberately retain the humanoid form. In order to implement the tenet that the body is limited and the soul is unlimited, the lich will keep a copy of all its memories and emotions in the phylactery, and leave some soul fragments as an introduction. When it encounters fatal danger, it can activate the soul return technique, allowing the broken soul to return to the Lich's phylactery in a special way, and use the magical energy stored in it to be reborn again.

But all of this has a premise, that is, the Lich Soul Fire cannot be captured by some guys who are good at soul capture. Once it falls into their hands, I am afraid it will be a painful situation where it cannot survive but cannot die. No matter how many backhands there are in the phylactery, if the soul does not return, everything becomes a display.

The situation in front of them is the one that the liches are most afraid of. The soul is imprisoned by the other party, even if he blew himself up, he couldn't get rid of the shackles engraved into the source of the soul. Instead, he would lose his soul power, making him even more unable to resist the hateful contract power.

It didn't take a moment for Lux to understand his situation, which made him silent silently.

Although the soul is bound and cannot return to the phylactery, the strength of the opponent's soul is obviously not enough to control him, which gives him some limited means of resistance.

like silence...

"Oh, this guy is going to be passive and sabotage!" Li Xun eagerly presented treasures to everyone as if he had discovered a new world, his words were full of disdain.

The panorama is not a soul prison, but a rudimentary form of a soul kingdom. Lux thought that he could retain the power of inaction in it, but following Li Xun's certain instructions, he was shocked to discover this inescapable concealment The space is establishing a connection with the Lich's phylactery in the distance, as if it wants to pull the Lich's phylactery into it.

At this moment, Lux was really scared!

It's scary to be controlled by someone's soul, but as long as he finds a chance to return his soul, then he still has a glimmer of hope to get rid of the soul's captivity. But once the lich's phylactery falls into the hands of human beings, the freedom and destiny of this lich will be in the hands of human beings from now on, and they will no longer be under their control.

Lux's soul fire rushed left and right in this strange space, trying to resist the mysterious brand bound in the depths of the origin, and delaying the progress of the opponent's invasion of the distant phylactery. Although the effect is remarkable, it really slows down its speed, but it cannot completely cut off this connection.

So under the situation of struggling to no avail, Lux's soul fire appeared in front of Li Xun on his own initiative.

"You're that little mage!?" Actually, Lux already knew who he was facing before he spoke, after all, the mysterious imprint etched deep in his soul also contained Li Xun's soul breath.

The light and shadow moved, and all the external disguises were dissipating, and Li Xun's young and energetic face appeared in front of the holy lich.

He sighed silently.

If he had known earlier that the mastermind behind the scenes that he needed to deal with was this young mage, Lux would have completely wiped him out in the limited number of contacts before, even if he risked his soul breaking once. It's a pity that there is no regret medicine in the world, nor does it have the means to turn back time, so Lux's soul fire finally dimmed after several shocks.

Li Xun and Lux's soul fire eyes met for a long time, and they didn't know what they discussed, but from Li Xun's satisfied expression after the purple fire disappeared completely, one can still guess that it must be the end of a complete victory for one side .

Today, there are not many cards that a holy lich can play. If he doesn't obediently bow his head and cooperate, I'm afraid he will never return to the phylactery in this life.

With the help of all kinds of information leaked by Lux, Li Xun immediately grasped the whereabouts of the legendary Lich Sarzastan, which made him overjoyed.

This escaped legendary lich has always been a thorn in his heart, and he will feel restless if he doesn't get rid of it. It is impossible for such a huge cemetery army to stay in Stratholme and wait for it to come to the door. There are still many follow-up plans to be launched in the large cemetery, and it is impossible to guard against it like a thousand days against thieves. Get rid of it early, and the cemetery will be free to complete the expansion of the undead world.

Leaving enough manpower to clean up the battlefield, most of the high-level officials of the cemetery regrouped in the city hall and began to help Li Xun make suggestions. The plans made by this group of corpse witches, dracolich, necromancers, and necromancers were extremely targeted, and the viciousness and viciousness contained in them made Li Xun shudder when he heard it.

So conspiracies and tricks against the legendary Lich Sazastan were concocted in this way, and entered the implementation stage with the action of all members of the Necropolis.

...

wizarding world.

Kirslinburg is also the largest human gathering area next to Elson Forest.

From here to the east to the line of the Golan Mountains, there is a large area of ​​fertile and mature black land, so this is also the main grain-producing area in the central part of the wizarding world. On the eve of the Harvest Festival, the roads here will be crowded with four-wheeled carriages loaded with grain parcels. A lot of grain will be transshipped from here to the wharf near the Senau River, and then sold by grain merchants to some big cities in the south by cargo ships.

As the most important transit hub of land transportation on this assembly line, Keslinburg is undoubtedly the area with the most concentrated traffic of people and vehicles, as well as caravan vendors.

However, at this moment, among the endless stream of carriages, an old and dilapidated small commercial carriage was slowly driving.

"How long will it take to reach Kirslinburg?" A pale middle-aged man dressed as a wizard raised the car curtain and couldn't help asking. A striking circle logo could be seen from the half-exposed wizard robe, which also indicated that This is a wizard who has mastered a ring of witchcraft.

"There is still a day and a half to go, my lord. Judging from the situation, it is very likely that we will stop in Fenglin Town tonight." The coachman Tom is a very talkative person. Just after answering the question, he seemed to think of something temporarily. Shi Shi asked by the way: "My lord, if you think it's boring there, you can try to visit Lord Haituman. He is very famous there!"

"Haitman? Is he a wizard too?"

"Everyone says he is, but no one has ever seen him perform those magical witchcraft. He is very withdrawn, but he is very friendly and doesn't mind people's visits. But his place is really too gloomy. Many people who have been there are unwilling to go again, so his place gradually became deserted..."

Hearing that Tom was showing signs of turning to a long story, the middle-aged wizard quickly interrupted his nagging: "Since he has never performed witchcraft, why do you think he is a wizard?"

"Because when he first came to settle here, many wizards came to visit him, but many of them were kicked out by him. Then he must be a very powerful wizard, otherwise how dare he treat the wizard like this?"

The middle-aged wizard fell silent, put down the car curtain and didn't make another sound.

Hearing the sound outside the car, the middle-aged wizard couldn't help thinking.

Of course, this so-called one-ring wizard was Karthus who was traveling alone. As a great hero of the dracolich family, Karthus' body form is too different from that of humans, and he cannot integrate into human society without magical disguise. The low-level spell "Transfiguration Self" does not require too much knowledge of the enchantment system to be applied, and as long as the body is not attacked or encounters dispelling spells, it can easily last for a long time with one cast.

So Karthus only used a cheap "transformed self" brooch to successfully disguise himself as a traveling wizard, and hired this dilapidated traveling carriage to mix into human society.

According to his original intention, Karthus planned to go directly to the Burning Plains of Tallinn in the Eastern Land, but after getting more detailed information, even he couldn't help but feel anxious.

The Burning Plain, the remains of the ancient battlefield, has been sealed and isolated by the powerful wizards since ancient times, and blocked most of the passages leading to this place, leaving only two unique entrances and exits. The wizarding family has guarded it for generations. According to legend, there are still some demon descendants or demonized creatures left in it. They are ferocious, murderous, and hold an attitude of extreme hatred towards human beings.

In many cases, these guardian families will also allow some large wizard organizations to select some capable wizards to go in for training. On the one hand, they will sweep the number of monsters inside and hunt some distinctive demon descendants. Tolls. However, there are strict regulations on the ranks of wizards who enter, and high-level wizards are never allowed to go fishing in the marsh, which ruins a good training ground.

Strictly speaking, the Burning Plains seems to be a place for low-level wizards to practice in Tallinn in the East, and it is their private land for making money. One can imagine how difficult it would be for Karthus, a treasure land similar to a secret realm, to get in!
