Arriving at the palace, Grete felt a little unnatural. Along the way, Tamik looked at him with strange eyes.
"What's wrong?" Gretel asked helplessly, "You have been very strange since you entered the City of Shadows. What happened?"
"The guard said that you were chosen by the holder of the artifact. Do you know the holder of the artifact?" Tamik asked.
"I have only heard rumors about him. It is said that he is a terrifying lich who has mastered the true meaning of death. He has no flesh and blood on his body. And according to the prophecies mentioned by some necromancers, that man is carrying two artifacts.
His existence will eventually rule the entire Diya." Grete thought for a while and replied.
"It seems that you don't know the truth of the matter." After hearing what Grete said, Tamik shook his head and let out a heavy sigh.
"The truth? What truth?" Gretel asked with some confusion, "Do you know anything?"
"Once upon a time, the holder of that artifact was just a weak necromancer with little strength, but he was lucky enough to get the artifact that belonged to the necromancer, and that's how he achieved his current achievements."
As if recalling something, Tamik's eyes showed a bit of unwillingness.
"Now, there is no lich in Diya who can restrain him. I don't know why he summoned all the necromancers in Diya, but I don't think anything good will happen."
"Is it true..." Grete asked in disbelief. He had never heard of this information before, "How do you know this?"
"My master was once one of the immortal lichs of Dia. She followed the holder of the artifact to the human holy city of Standwick and never came back."
Tamik sighed again.
"I can feel that the holder of the artifact must be hiding something, maybe a unique power, or something. What I have to do is to find out the truth of all this... If I had known it earlier,
If he can reach this point, even if he disobeys the Lich's order, I will find a way to deal with him in advance."
"..." Gretel fell into silence, recalling the mysterious necromancer he had met, and the other creatures who seemed to have changed after listening to his words. He seemed to have discovered something, but it still existed in his heart.
A little confused.
As he continued to move forward into the palace, the surrounding firelight became darker and darker. There were almost no necromancers left here, and even the guards were rarely seen. Only waves of low roars were constantly coming from the end, and there was no trace of them.
Know what kind of creature emits it.
Listening to the roar, Gretel felt his whole body trembling, and his body had instinctive fear. If it weren't for the powerful vampire beside him, Gretel would have been unable to help but flee backwards.
Soon, the two of them arrived at the main hall of the palace.
In the main hall, sitting on the huge bone throne, is a man wearing an eye patch whose face cannot be seen clearly.
Although the distance was far away, through the aura on his body, Gretel immediately confirmed the identity of this man. He was the mysterious necromancer who left the cloud of death in his body, which was what the guards said.
Lord Rhodes.
At this moment, Rhodes' attention was not on Gretel and the other two, but on a purple-haired girl in front of him, who was holding a book and saying something helplessly. p>
With a sigh, Rhodes closed the classics in his hand and said helplessly: "Why do you want to learn Common Language? I mean, you obviously have language treasures in your body, so there is no need to go to such trouble."
The purple-haired girl opened her mouth, as if she wanted to say something, but what came out was a loud dragon roar. The dragon roar spread out of the palace, almost overturning the entire palace, and in front of her, Rhodes was even more
Helpless.
Looking at the scene in front of him, not far away, Gretel also realized that the source of those low roars he heard before was the purple-haired girl in front of him.
Soon, the purple-haired girl put on a special purple ribbon, and her voice changed accordingly. She snorted and said, "I just want to learn this. Is there any problem?"
"If you are interested in linguistics, I can find linguistics experts to teach you. Not only lingua franca, you can also learn various other languages. But why do you insist on me teaching you? I
I just mastered the common language briefly. As for other languages, it can be said that I don’t understand it at all." Rhodes said helplessly.
The purple-haired girl blinked several times, looked aside, and said with a guilty conscience: "I'm hungry. There seem to be two people over there. Can I eat them?"
After hearing what she said, Rhodes raised his head and looked in the direction pointed by the purple-haired girl. There seemed to be two insignificant creatures there. Rhodes had some impressions of them.
"It's you... you are the holder of the artifact! I never imagined that I could meet you in that state..." Seeing Rhodes looking over, Grete said quickly.
"I never thought you could really do this, cross an extremely long distance, and come to the City of Shadows as an ordinary necromancer." Rhodes said slowly.
Hearing the conversation between Gretel and Rhodes, Tamik was extremely puzzled for a moment. She asked Rhodes: "What do you mean?"
"Didn't I make it clear?" Rhodes shrugged, "According to the agreement, I will remove the cloud of death from your body." After saying that, Rhodes raised his hand, and the dark clouds overflowed from Grete's body.
And out.
Gretel felt his body light up, there was no more pain inside his body, and his overall condition was much better than before.
In Tamik's perception, Grete at this time no longer had the powerful aura on his body, and all he could show was the aura of an ordinary necromancer.
This discovery also made Tamik's eyes freeze.
Along the way, Tamik had not doubted Gretel's identity. Gretel's knowledge and wisdom were far weaker than those of a normal senior necromancer. However, whenever Tamik felt the incomparable power inside Gretel's body,
When the energy of death is pure and far beyond all others, this thought will be given up.
In her opinion, only the most powerful, whose strength is at the top of all necromancers, and even surpasses those lichs in the past, can possess such pure death energy.
What Tamik didn't expect was that this death energy was not owned by Gretel at all. Everything Gretel relied on came from the holder of the artifact in front of him, and it was also the reason for Tamik's trip.
