The undead finally disappeared, and the guard captain breathed a sigh of relief: "What happened to the undead just now? Why can it be resurrected?"
"That's the undead!" Pastor Spike said seriously, "Monsters created by the necromancer using special magic."
"Were the previous murders and the killing of domestic animals in the city all done by necromancers?" The guard captain lowered his head and pondered, "It seems that we are looking in the wrong direction? This has nothing to do with vampires?"
"No!" Pastor Spike said seriously, "I can't say it doesn't matter. Just now I carefully inspected the wound on the corpse's neck, and it is indeed a vampire's tooth mark!"
"But Pastor Spike, you said this was created by the necromancer using magic..."
"I'm afraid, what we are facing is a combination of necromancer and vampire!" Pastor Spike said seriously, "This adventurer was first caught by the vampire and drained of his blood. Then he was cast by the necromancer and slowly transformed into a vampire.
Immortal. If we don't arrive in time, the consequences will be disastrous!"
The captain of the guard glanced at the direction where the corpse disappeared, put his sword back into the scabbard, and said indifferently: "Such a weak undead, even if it can be resurrected infinitely, it is useless, right? Not to mention me, even ordinary people have such weapons.
It can knock it down. Its speed is slow and its defense is low. How big of a threat can it be?"
"The undead... are not such simple monsters!" Pastor Spike looked at the guard captain seriously, "We are lucky this time and can kill it directly the moment it appears! The undead have just been created.
They are indeed quite weak at first. But in just a few minutes, they can grow into quite powerful beings! Their single combat power is stronger than that of fully armed elite skeleton soldiers. In addition, they can be resurrected infinitely, which is quite terrifying. Moreover,
, people killed by the undead will also transform into new undead. If not stopped, they will start killing crazily until all the creatures they see are wiped out. In other words, if we are slightly negligent, something unexpected may happen.
The tragedy of the dead massacring the city!”
"So scary?" The guard captain's pupils shrank sharply, "Fortunately, we came to deal with it in time, and fortunately you have Pastor Spike here. Speaking of vampires and necromancers appearing at the same time, it seems that we need to report it to the Lord of the City quickly! Tursisco
Is there going to be a catastrophe in the city?"
"That's not necessarily the case!" Pastor Spike shook his head and said, "Although the undead are powerful, they can be created with only third-level undead magic. And high-level vampires generally think of themselves very highly and will not compete with necromancers and other people who are considered inferior.
The waiting creatures came together. Therefore, the perpetrator of this murder was probably the cooperation of low-level vampires and low-level necromancers. Also, what happened before, including the blacksmith Bartley, was killed outside at night, and there was no
Become undead... If you are a powerful necromancer or vampire, there is no need to be so sneaky. In other words..."
"In other words, the other party is just two clowns?" the guard captain asked immediately.
"Absolutely!" Pastor Spico nodded and said, "But why do they come to the slums specifically to kill people? It is far away from the previous location of blacksmith Bartley's shop. Or are they just picking targets at random?"
"Yes! It's very possible." The guard captain said, "By the way, I heard that this adventurer named Daris Nomu once picked up a dark magic core."
"That's right..." Pastor Spike nodded and said, "For vampires, the target selection is random. But for necromancers, the dark magic core can be very useful...especially for junior necromancers, especially
Need this kind of thing!"
"The perpetrators are definitely junior necromancers and low-level vampires!" the guard captain said in a deep voice, "In this case, there is no need to report to the city lord immediately. Pastor Spike, can you help us catch these two
A sneaky person who endangers the safety of the city? The city lord will be very happy when the culprit is brought back!"
"According to reports from your subordinates, the other party should not have been away for long. Maybe I can give it a try!" Pastor Spike began to chant the spell again, and then used magic on the ground: "Detect evil!"
The captain of the guard looked at Pastor Spike nervously. The pastor carefully looked at every corner of the hall, and then slowly walked towards the stairs.
From their conversation, Jia Zhengjin learned that the dark magic core might have been taken away by the Necromancer. No wonder he couldn't find it no matter how hard he found it. Seeing that Pastor Spike seemed to be able to track the perpetrator, he immediately followed them and went up to the attic together.
Pastor Spike led the way and slowly walked to a broken window: "The evil aura came all the way here, and then flew outside! It is indeed a combination of a necromancer and a vampire..."
"Can you find the direction in which they escaped?" the guard captain asked hurriedly.
"It's still too late!" Pastor Spike nodded lightly.
"Then why are you hesitating? Let's go and catch those two evil guys!" The guard captain quickly went downstairs and greeted his subordinates loudly.
Pastor Spike chased the evil energy in the air. The guard captain followed closely with dozens of guards. The team marched out of the south gate and ran towards a nearby mountain peak.
The invisible Jia Zhengjin followed closely behind, running with the team along the winding mountain road.
On the way, when they entered a relatively dense jungle, a group of ferocious beasts rushed out. These strange creatures looked a bit like black wolfdogs, but had no ears or hair, and caused considerable trouble to the guards.
As soon as the battle started, many guards were injured and fell. Fortunately, Pastor Spike treated them, and the guard captain fought bravely to kill monsters, and finally passed safely.
Jia Zhengjin, who was following them, was of course watching the whole show and was not prepared to take action.
His goal is just to retrieve the dark magic core, and other than that, he doesn't want to get into any other trouble.
Just like this, we arrived at the top of the mountain. When all the guards were panting, Pastor Spike finally discovered that the end of the evil aura was a cave hidden behind rocks.
"Inside!" Pastor Spike turned around and said in a low voice, "The evil atmosphere in the cave is even stronger!"
"Hiding in such a hidden place is really cunning." The guard captain immediately ordered, "Pastor Spike, thank you so much! Without your help, I wouldn't have the chance to make a great contribution! Everyone, obey my orders and follow me to kill.
Go in and capture the evil necromancer and vampire!"
"Wait!" Pastor Spike quickly stopped, "Don't be impulsive. Since that necromancer can create the undead, it may be quite dangerous in the cave. Therefore, I will first cast a light shield for everyone to weaken the power of the undead as much as possible! Go in
You must also protect me from now on, the undead can only be destroyed through light magic!"
"Understood! Did you hear that? Once you get in, just do what Pastor Spike said!"
