Stanley raised his hand to stop the others, signaling them not to move forward, and then looked at the necromancer in the middle with cautious eyes.
obviously.
He is the leader of this tomb robbing gang from Baiyan City.
This is a senior necromancer.
The two people behind him looked like they were apprentices, and four intermediate thieves were standing not far away.
Except for these living people.
These necromancers also summoned a total of four mummy warriors, more than 20 zombies and more skeletons.
These undead were guarding behind them in an orderly manner like an army.
The two sides just met.
Stanley could feel the other party's unabashed malice and the unique depressive aura of the undead.
"Let me go, let me go!"
"How dare you blaspheme an Elf King in this holy land of elves? I will soon be restored to my glorious status! If you don't let me go, I will..."
Linden, who was being carried by the mummy, was still struggling fiercely, but in the next second, he was hit hard against the wall next to him by the mummy warrior!
boom!
There was a muffled sound, and spider web-like cracks opened in the long-disrepaired wall.
Linden's face turned pale, his eyes bulged violently, and he seemed to be out of breath.
"Put it down."
The senior necromancer said calmly.
Only then did the mummy let go.
Linden collapsed under the wall, gasping for air.
"With your physique, I would be too weak to be a zombie."
The senior necromancer looked at Linden with disgust:
"Hand over the money!"
"And you!"
As he spoke, he turned to look at Stanley and his group.
Stanley said with a solemn expression:
"We haven't even seen the shadow of Guilty Crown. Isn't it too early to start fighting against each other now?"
The Necromancer sneered:
"Is your brain okay?"
"You don't really want to do something for that green dragon, do you?"
"The gold coins she gave us are all enchanted with gold-seeking magic. Sooner or later they will fly back to her hands. Instead of doing this, why not give the gold coins to me for safekeeping first."
Stanley frowned:
"This is not far from the Dragon's Nest."
The necromancer asked with a mysterious face:
"Then guess why that green dragon girl didn't come in by herself?"
"I dare to conclude that the so-called Guilty Crown is just an excuse. Her real purpose is to trick us in, most likely to the third floor of the troll underground palace. As for what is waiting for us there... or else
Would you like to go and see for yourself?"
"But before that, keep the gold coins."
Stanley retorted seriously:
"If she just needs to trick people into getting in, then she named a master tomb robber? If the threshold is lowered, wouldn't Fatina be able to trick more people?"
Now it was the Necromancer's turn to frown:
"Have you really thought about it seriously?"
"I'm too lazy to communicate with idiots like you. Stop talking nonsense and give me money!"
A moment of confusion.
The mummy warriors drew their swords one after another and pointed at pedestrian Stanley from a distance.
Stanley didn't wait for a reaction.
Lyndon on the ground regained his composure, and he grabbed a huge pocket from his coat——
This is not a storage prop, but a folding prop with similar functions.
Wow.
The yellow gold coins struck the wet ground one by one, making a crisp and pleasant sound.
"Let me go!"
"I'll give you all the money!"
Lyndon said eagerly:
"Don't waste my time anymore, I can feel the power of the Elf King reviving in my body..."
Snapped--!
The mummy warrior picked up Linden and pulled him aside like a dog, but did not let go.
The other side.
One of the two apprentices behind the Necromancer stepped forward to collect gold coins, and the other untied the crucible from behind a zombie.
They set up the crucible on the spot and set up the magic flame.
quickly.
The gold coin was put into the crucible and melted into dazzling gold water under the influence of high temperature and magic.
The golden water was finally poured into a spherical mold under the guidance of magic.
Soon.
The two apprentices completed the work.
It is easy to see from their proficiency that they have already smelted all the gold coins on their bodies.
"It's your turn."
The senior necromancer looked at Stanley with evil intentions.
"Brother-in-law, what should we do?"
the subordinate asked.
"What else can we do? Fight!"
Stanley snorted:
"I hate unruly people the most!"
The voice fell.
The three figures disappeared into the air at the same time!
Daisy was left standing alone.
She stared at this scene blankly and couldn't help but wrap up Stanley's coat.
The next second.
Under the cruel gaze of the senior necromancer.
A mummy warrior rushed towards Daisy with cold-blooded steps!
And he himself suddenly took a few steps forward quickly.
Then he raised the staff in his hand high and raised his hands upward like an eagle spreading its wings——
"Level 3 Spell: Death Explosion"!
Along with this action.
With him as the center, three waves of negative energy quickly slapped to the side!
Wherever the airwaves go.
All objects are subject to a clear tendency to be pushed.
"oops!"
Two embarrassed figures appeared next to the Necromancer one after another.
These are two of Stanley's men.
Seeing that his invisibility was broken, one of them exclaimed:
"Brother-in-law, save me!"
When he shouted, his eyes couldn't help but look at the blind spot on the right rear of the Necromancer!
"waste!"
The Necromancer showed a contemptuous smile.
He likes the most enemies who unintentionally sell out his teammates.
That's why.
He never had teammates, only servants!
"Is it in this direction? It's so far around, no wonder it wasn't pushed out by my death blast. It's quite cautious, but it's a pity..."
The necromancer waved his staff.
The remaining two mummy warriors and four tomb robbers immediately surrounded in that direction.
Immediately afterwards.
All the undead units were also dispatched, and the area was completely surrounded in almost two to three seconds!
"Let's see where you go to hide yourself!"
"Apparition Dust!"
The Necromancer shouted loudly, and immediately an apprentice rushed over behind him carrying a small sack.
The apprentice rushed towards the area surrounded by the undead and frantically spread the white powder in his hands!
Hoo ho ho!
White powder fell down one after another.
The Necromancer took one look and asked angrily:
"I asked you to add some flour to the developing dust. How much did you add?"
The apprentice replied fearfully:
"Don't you want to redeem more? The anti-invisibility effect will be similar? So I redeemed half..."
"waste!"
The Necromancer gritted his teeth and cursed:
“Next time remember to redeem at least three-quarters!”
"Don't you know that the development dust is very expensive?"
The apprentice was stunned for a moment, then nodded his head like a chicken pecking at rice.
However, areas were blocked by the development dust mixed with flour.
Stanley's figure never appeared.
The necromancer looked ahead in confusion.
The next second.
There was a whistling wind behind him!
"No, I was fooled!"
Feeling the cold light behind him, the Necromancer made a prompt decision. He grabbed another apprentice and pushed him behind him.
The latter immediately screamed.
A sharp blade pierced the apprentice's heart!
Stanley's figure slowly appeared.
Without saying a word, he drew out his sharp blade and chased after the Necromancer again!
The distance between the two sides is very close.
At the critical moment, the Necromancer's cheeks bulged sharply, and a lot of blood oozed from the corners of his mouth.
Just when Stanley bullied him.
The necromancer suddenly opened his mouth——
"Fourth level spell: Tooth Collapse"!
Wow!
The bloody teeth shot out like steel balls from a shotgun.
Hit Stanley's body mercilessly!
The latter groaned.
The body is like a thin crisp paper that has been beaten into a sieve!
However, before the Necromancer could show a proud smile, they were surprised to find that the Stanley in front of them was just a clone!
And the real Stanley suddenly appeared at the wall!
But when he saw his sword coming down, he chopped off one of the mummy warrior's arms. Then he grabbed Linden who had fallen to the ground and disappeared again!
Immediately afterwards.
He and two other thieves appeared next to Daisy.
"Brother-in-law, my acting skills are quite realistic, right?"
The subordinate asked proudly.
Stanley gave a thumbs up.
He gently placed Linden on the ground, and the latter immediately started shouting and grinning.
not far away.
The senior necromancer looked at Stanley in surprise:
"You did so many things just to save him?"
"Didn't he defect from your team on his own initiative?"
Stanley said calmly:
"I brought him in. I can't let others hurt him. This is my rule as a tomb robber."
Linden screamed on the ground for a while, and when no one paid attention to him, he patted his butt and stood up:
"Thank you, Stanley, your character astounds me."
As he spoke, he glanced sideways at Daisy:
"But I just left for a few minutes, and Daisy put on your coat. I just want to ask-"
"Is my wife any good?"
There was a crisp snap.
There was an extra slap mark on Linden's face.
Daisy looked at Stanley who took action with some surprise, and the latter's face was full of anger.
Stanley lifted up Lyndon's collar:
"I have never seen a man as shameless as you!"
But Lyndon didn't seem to care at all.
He looked at Stanley with a strange smile:
"Don't think that I don't know your thoughts, don't you just want to use the knowledge in my mind?"
"Don't pretend that your character is noble. A tomb robber is a tomb robber. If someone calls you a grand robber, you won't take it seriously, right?"
As he spoke, he wiped the blood from the corner of his mouth:
"But you did save my life, so I changed my mind. I promised to find the Guilty Crown for you first, but after that, you must escort me to the core of the dynasty!"
"How about we clear things up later?"
Stanley looked at Linden fiercely, and after a moment, he said coldly:
"Can!"
"Now would you please take your clothes off my wife?"
Linden screamed:
"Don't get me wrong. It's not that I mind sharing Daisy with you. I just heard that you already have a wife. If word gets out that you had an affair with a prostitute, it might damage your reputation as a thieves."
Before Stanley could take action.
Daisy over there had already handed over her coat silently.
Lyndon wanted to say something else.
The senior necromancer couldn't hold himself back:
"You're not still thinking about leaving, are you?"
Talking room.
The group of undead swarmed over quickly.
Seeing this, Stanley took a big step forward.
Immediately afterwards.
Suddenly there was a lantern emitting green light in his hand!
As soon as the lantern comes out.
All the undead took two steps back!
"Lost Lantern?"
The Necromancer was shocked:
"Are you from Viscount Fan?"
Stanley didn't speak, just stared at the other person coldly.
The Necromancer had a tangled look on his face, as if he was weighing the pros and cons in his heart.
Half a moment.
He said reluctantly:
"For the sake of Fan Zijue, I will let you go!"
"But the woman is staying!"
There was a faint fire in the eyes of the necromancer:
"I love her body!"
Stanley's expression became solemn.
Instead, Linden showed a gloating expression:
"So what is our Rogue Stanley going to do? It might be okay to go against the Necromancer for an archaeologist with a rich history, but is it worth it for a prostitute?"
Just at this time.
Daisy suddenly said leisurely:
"So you really didn't notice that one of your mummies was missing?"
She said this to the senior necromancer.
The latter was slightly startled.
His eyes swept across the undead troops, and then his heart was shocked!
indeed.
One mummy is missing!
And what’s missing is the mummy warrior he sent to hunt down Daisy just now!
"So, you are also a master?"
The necromancer looked at Daisy uncertainly.
Daisy smiled, unintentionally revealing all kinds of charm.
She adjusted the straps of her vest casually, and then licked her lips:
"I am really a master in certain circumstances."
"For example, on the bed..."
Linden smiled strangely and said:
"I can prove that the sofa, kitchen, and toilet are all pretty good! Even the carriage has its own unique flavor..."
"you!"
The necromancer seemed to feel that he was being fooled, and suddenly became a little angry.
But at this moment.
He suddenly noticed that the mummy reappeared within his range of perception!
He looked sharply to the left.
But when I saw the mummy's figure flying over on the street when I arrived, it seemed as if someone had kicked it hard, and it suddenly collapsed the wall!
Immediately afterwards.
Three leisurely figures appeared in front of everyone.
The one walking at the front was a pretty boy carrying a shovel;
Behind them were a plain-looking bald priest and a frail bard.
See this combination.
The Necromancer couldn't help but breathed a sigh of relief.
He was about to say something, but the next second, his nose twitched slightly and he looked at Matthew in surprise:
"Are you also a necromancer?"
"Huh? Found out?"
Matthew was also a little surprised.
Carmela stretched her neck behind him:
"I told you, the Necromancer smells fishy!"
Luo Lan spread his hands:
"I still think it's the smell."
The two started arguing again and again.
Only Matthew kept going.
The necromancer looked at Matthew with narrowed eyes. After a moment, he suddenly asked:
"You are a necromancer, what kind of hoe do you use?"
Matthew looked down in confusion:
"This is a shovel..."
"What's the difference?"
The Necromancer said fiercely:
"Shameless scum."
"I hate necromancers like you who have no sense of collective honor the most!"
"Since you are not from Baiyan City, don't blame me for being rude!"
The next second.
He raised his staff sharply and chanted a spell quickly.
Three seconds later.
He waved his staff vigorously, and a golden ball of light appeared on his chest. After hovering for half a second, it headed straight for Matthew!
Immediately afterwards.
A gray ray followed the golden ball of light and struck silently!
"What a sinister guy!"
If they hadn't turned on the spell recognition ability in advance, they might not have noticed the "death ray" mixed in behind the "phosphorescent bomb"!
That is a fourth-level spell.
It has a strong lethal effect!
However, in the face of these two spells, Matthew did not dodge or dodge, and directly hit them head on!
The golden ball of light hit the chest, immediately arousing a unique frequency of arcane radiance. Then the ball of light screamed and quickly disappeared into the air!
This is a sign that "Counterspell" is in effect!
See this scene.
A proud smile appeared on the Necromancer's face, and he subconsciously explained to the remaining apprentice:
"I knew my peers would have at least one counter."
"The magic phosphorescent bomb can not only cover the existence of the death ray, but also play a role in breaking the law. This is really a textbook wave..."
However, his smile soon solidified on his face.
Because it was at that moment.
The death ray hit Matthew's shoulder, as if it hit a mirror, turned around and shot directly at himself!
That is--
"Spell rebound"!
"How can it be!?"
The necromancer's jaw almost dropped in shock.
If spell counterspell and spell rebound are attached to the body at the same time, theoretically they will be triggered by a spell at the same time!
Didn't you just lose a trick?
Before the necromancer could figure out why the phosphorescent bomb could only break spell counterspells but not spell rebounds.
The reflected death ray had penetrated his ribs!
Severe pain stimulated the necromancer's nerves.
But after a few seconds.
There was still an ugly smile on his face.
fine.
The judgment of instant death did not take effect.
He came back to life.
Matthew was not surprised when he saw this. Necromancers deal with negative energy every day, and their resistance to immediate death is indeed stronger than others.
It can only be said that it was bad luck to not kill it directly.
He was quite satisfied with the operation just now——
It is true that Matthew set up the counterspell in advance, but the spell rebound was set up by him at the moment when the phosphorescent bomb broke the counterattack.
This is something that is impossible for ordinary people to do.
But Matthew is different.
Thanks to Suriel's enchantment method, his spell reflection can be instantly attached at any time and anywhere.
This is the power of magic abilities.
"Kill that scum!"
After the sneak attack failed, the necromancer on the opposite side shouted and tried to order all the undead to swarm forward.
However, he soon realized something was wrong.
He looked back and found that whether they were mummies, zombies or even the lowest skeletons, they were all standing there indifferently!
"kill him!"
The Necromancer pointed at Matthew with a hoarse voice.
However, the strange scene in front of me continued.
Not a single undead responded to his orders!
Instead, Matthew spoke:
"etc."
The Necromancer asked fearfully:
"What are you waiting for?"
"Who are you exactly?"
Matthew said to himself:
"Just wait..."
on the data column.
…
"Tip: You used the ability "All Strike" on all summons of the high-level necromancer "Kunsa"!
Ability determination successful!
All the undead in Kunsa are on strike!
While on strike, you can better instigate the undead to rebel.
You are using your natural spellcasting ability to "incite rebellion"..."
…
"No no no no no!"
"What are you doing!"
"Don't take away my most beloved mummy!"
At this moment.
Kunsa finally understood the evil behavior of the shovel-wielding colleague in front of him!
But he couldn't resist it!
He could only feel that what originally belonged to him was being pried away by Matthew bit by bit!
Those undead people who had such a close connection with him in soul.
Those undead people who were loyal to him.
Now they are becoming Matthew’s playthings one after another!
How could this not make him heartbroken?!
"Cough cough cough..."
Furious, Kunsa coughed violently.
But he didn't give up.
He stared at Matthew with an unprecedented fierce look, and then he raised the snake-shaped staff in his hand again!
"You all come here!"
"ah……"
Kunsa roared hysterically.
An invisible force field enveloped the apprentice around him and the four tomb robbers who followed him.
Immediately afterwards.
The five people were sucked to the top of Kunsa's head by that force.
They exclaimed and were arranged into a strange shape.
The five people all have their heads facing inward and their feet facing outwards, forming a circle full of evil meaning.
"Go to shit!"
Due to the sequelae of the tooth decay surgery, Kunsa's mouth leaked severely when he said these words.
This makes the scene both weird and funny.
Bang bang bang!
The bodies of the five people exploded one after another, turning into blood mist all over the sky!
Immediately afterwards.
The blood poured into the tip of the snake-shaped staff.
They seemed to have turned into a blood snake wrapped around Kunsa's right arm!
"A very evil blood curse?"
Matthew could tell at a glance that the spell used by Kunsa was an evil spell in the realm of the dead that was used to greatly enhance the effects of spells.
With the blood curse activated.
All spells related to negative energy will be strengthened by at least one full level!
And Kunsa himself is a level 17 necromancer.
Under the blessing of the blood curse.
All his spell power may exceed the fifth level and be infinitely close to the legend!
certainly.
It is still far from the true legendary power.
Matthew didn't panic.
He also wanted to take the opportunity to compete with his peers to test his strength.
So when he saw the next spell that Kunsa chanted, he also chanted it.
A few seconds later.
Two giant claws and front and rear legs each made of tentacles appeared between the two people.
Claws of Astra!
This is the spell that the necromancer Kunsa chose when he made a desperate move!
Matthew wanted to use the same spell to fight the opponent.
On top of the ruins of the Emerald City.
Two ferocious claws of Astra stretched their tentacles in mid-air like soaring octopuses.
The suction cups on the tentacles squirmed and rolled rapidly, and the black luster emitted from them revealed a breathtaking power.
the difference is.
At least half of the tentacles of Esdra's Claw summoned by Kunsa are filled with sticky blood.
Matthew's Astra's Claw has been strengthened by ability spell upgrades.
Therefore, the size is larger than that of Kunsa.
"shit……!"
Kunsa waved his staff as hard as he could.
The bloody claws of Astra pressed over with unusual ferocity.
Matthew's paw also greeted him.
For a while.
Two huge negative energy claws started fighting on the spot.
Matthew and Kunsa fought in the air.
The two of them seemed to be wrestling with each other, sometimes moving to the left, sometimes to the right, sometimes thrust forward violently to the right, and sometimes dragged backwards.
Rumble!
The place where the Great Claw fought fiercely.
Even the ruins were razed to even more tragic levels!
"It's really a bit intense..."
They gestured to each other for seven or eight rounds.
Matthew had an idea in his mind.
Kunsa is indeed a powerful necromancer. The opponent uses the Claw of Esdrael to fight him. With the blessing of the blood curse, Matthew really can't defeat him for a while!
More importantly.
Because Matthew focused on the frontal battlefield.
Therefore, the efforts to instigate rebellion against the undead in Kunsa were greatly weakened.
One goes down and the other goes up.
Some of the undead in Kunsa actually showed signs of recovering from the general strike!
no doubt.
Judging from combat experience and on-the-spot decision-making.
Kunsa is already a powerful necromancer.
However, for Matthew, this is not enough!
The next second.
Under Kunsa's somewhat stunned gaze, Matthew suddenly had an ordinary staff in his hand.
This staff was a souvenir given to Matthew by Hibbert when he went to the Floating City before.
Essentially, it is a staff used by freshmen at the Floating City Magic Academy to practice.
There are three passages engraved on the staff.
…
"Dear new students, during school, please focus on casting spells and don't fall in love!
For guys, trust me, most women will only affect your casting speed!
For girls, trust me, most guys just want to sleep with you!
——Floating City Mage Chief, Ekmund"
…
At that time, Matthew only thought the staff was interesting and kept it.
I didn't expect it to come in handy so quickly.
Now.
Matthew separated part of his concentration.
Kunsa immediately controlled the Claw of Esdrael to crush it.
It's just that the dawn of Kunsa didn't last long.
next moment.
Kunsa suddenly heard a short voice:
"Lend it to me for fun!"
Then his hands felt cold.
When Kunsa lowered his head and looked down, he was shocked to find that his snake-shaped staff had turned into a novice practice staff!
An extremely bad feeling emerged in his heart.
So he looked up at Matthew.
Then he saw a scene that almost made him faint——
Matthew was poking the ground with the snake-shaped staff very casually!
It seems to be testing the texture and hardness of the staff.
"No!!!"
At that moment, Kunsa's eyes turned red.
He opened a hand helplessly:
"Stop it!"
"I can't bear to work so hard myself!"
There was a soft pop.
Without the support of the powerful snake-shaped staff, the quality of Kunsa's blood spell was greatly reduced.
Matthew's Astra's Claw successfully scattered the opponent, and then slapped Kunsa hard on the head!
In the blink of an eye.
This powerful necromancer was photographed into a withered flesh shell!
…
"Reminder: You successfully eliminated your colleagues in Baiyan City. You completed the task "When your colleagues meet, they are extremely jealous."
You gain the ability "Nature Djinn"!
You completed a very perfect duel between necromancers!
You successfully entered the combat (mage) realm with the Civil War element!
You gain the new ability "Civil War Nova" in the combat realm!
Civil War Nova: The damage you deal to the Necromancer is increased by 15%.
Tip: You have a chance to title your abilities!
Will he turn his ability "Civil War Rising Star" into his own title?
From now on, you will gain greater influence in the field of Necromancer, and gain an additional 15% damage increase!
Note: Titles can influence and expand the path of legend. "Civil War Rising Star" is a growth-producing title. If you obtain this title and continue to win more civil wars, the title will likely be upgraded and gain new effects.
Eventually you will be able to obtain the title of "King of Civil War" and a share of authority in related fields!
