Lord Harland.

Chapter 207 Necromancer
Entering March, the situation in northern Xinjiang has finally stabilized.

Zachary commanded a Legion of Redeemers stationed at Haden Castle.

The news that Baron Harden is a member of the Venus family has not been disclosed. On the surface, Baron Harden fled the territory because he was deeply involved in the rebellion and failed in the political struggle.

If King Roger is overthrown, Baron Harden still has the possibility to stand up within the Grant Kingdom system.

Baron Harden ran away with his family, and the three baronies of the Harden family became the territory directly under the royal family, and the two baronies in the northern border were under the jurisdiction of the Gascoigne province.

Because Richard moved Baron Harden's territory away, it became very difficult to replenish the Redeemer Legion.

In desperation, Zachary could only report to the Governor of Gascoigne Province.

The Governor of Gascoigne Province immediately felt a lot of trouble when he received the news.

It is difficult to handle affairs across provinces, and Li Cha is also a well-known assassin in northern Xinjiang.

When Baron Harden robbed the citizens of Stopa in Gerda province, he couldn't be held accountable. Now it is equally difficult to hold Li Cha accountable for this kind of thing.

There is no way, the Redeemer Legion can only farm by itself.

If you fail to stand in the political line, you can only admit that you are unlucky.Now the troops commanded by Zachary are like motherless children, who can only find ways to solve problems by themselves.

The position of the Redeemer Legion in Nolan is directly the first-line cannon fodder, and the treatment is not as good as that of the weak city defense army.

Unless you make a military exploit, you will have a chance to stand up.

Especially during King Roger's reign, turning over can become difficult.

No matter how hard it is, no matter how much money they lose, if they want to survive in the Grant Kingdom, the failed nobles can only endure it and find a way to change it when the next king comes to power.

Patience is a survival skill that nobility must possess, and another survival skill is admitting defeat and compromise.

The first-generation nobles like Li Cha often had a very tough personality, would rather bend than bend, and would not be patient and compromise.Most of the time, the first-generation nobles and the nobles who have been passed down for many years are almost two kinds of political creatures, and it is difficult to integrate into a circle of friends.

For example, the relationship between Li Cha and the nearby nobles is Baron Sharp.They are all first-generation military nobles. Compared with their uncles, Baron Duck and Baron Rice, Richard and Sharp are more straightforward in character.

March is the season of spring plowing. After several generations of management, the Dirham Barony has reclaimed 16 mu of farmland.

In recent years, the orcs have chosen to invade from the Harland Valley and the Platos Mountains. The Dirham Barony suffered heavy losses and eventually lost its hereditary territory.

Due to the loss of too many people in the war, a large amount of farmland has been abandoned in recent years.

However, it is relatively easy to restore abandoned farmland to cultivation, far easier than reclaiming wasteland.With this 16 mu of farmland, Li Cha is not planning to reclaim wasteland this year, and with [-] strong laborers in his hands, it is enough for Li Cha to resume production.

Not long after the spring plowing started, Li Cha received an unexpected message.

Twenty kilometers to the north of the Military Station Fort, a thick gray fog suddenly appeared.

A scout strayed into the gray fog, and no news came back.

After receiving this information, Li Cha was shocked, and his face suddenly changed.

The action of going to the undead world to block the plane passage three years ago was an unforgettable experience in Li Cha's life.

In that battle, he was almost taken away by the legendary lich, and his soul was fused.Looking back now, there is a feeling of dread.

Now that he heard the news of the gray mist again, he couldn't help but think of the undead world.

Thinking of the undead world in his heart, Li Cha immediately paid attention to it, and immediately wrote a letter to the Chenxi Church in Gerda Province to inform him of the unexpected situation.

I hope to get help from the church to solve this problem together.

The Church of Dawn is very powerful in the Kingdom of Grant, and there are legendary magicians sitting in it.If things really can't be dealt with, even if the sky falls, the big man will take over.

If he couldn't stand it anymore, Li Cha could also bring his family and subordinates to develop in other areas.

The Dawn plane is vast and boundless, and there is always a safe place. According to the current strength of the Harland family, they can live well wherever they go.Obtaining noble status is not too difficult.

After receiving the information from Richard, the Church of Dawn did not dare to neglect. The provincial bishop Deng Lejin personally led the team and brought four members of the church to the territory of Harland.

Li Cha and Sophia also made preparations and went to check around the gray mist with the church staff.

The Fort Garrison is already the northernmost tip of Harland's territory, and it has entered the unowned territory further forward, and there is no human habitation at all.

Walking [-] kilometers north from the Military Station Fort, the terrain gradually sloped downwards, forming a mountain basin of hundreds of square kilometers.

The drainage of the basin is not very convenient, and there are swamps everywhere.

Gray mist shrouded the swamp and appeared in everyone's field of vision.

In the thick gray fog, there was no sound, and nothing could be seen quietly.

Seeing this gray mist, Li Cha immediately affirmed that it had something to do with the Necromancer World.

"I have already felt the power of the undead."

Dunlkin sighed, sat cross-legged and began to recite the holy words.

Li Cha once saw the power of the Holy Word Art with his own eyes.

This magical technique is very restrained against undead creatures.

Following the utterance of the holy words, streaks of holy light emanated from Deng Lejin's body, which immediately dispelled the gray mist.

After the gray fog gradually dissipated, Li Cha found hundreds of undead creatures as far as he could see.

These undead creatures staggered towards the crowd, and there were still countless undead creatures behind them, hidden in the gray mist.

All the souls of the undead who heard the holy words were instantly liberated, and the souls of the dead turned into a cloud of green smoke.

Although these undead creatures are all low-level skeletons and zombies, they are in constant numbers. According to Richard's estimate, there are at least a few thousand.

Although Dunlekin is a seventh-level priest, there is no chance of winning if he consumes it.

If only a few priests from Dawn Church came to investigate, accidents might happen if they were careless.

But Reverend Dunlekin was accompanied by Richard, Sophia, Wendy and other members of the Harland Mage Association, and dozens of Warcraft cavalry were protecting Richard and the others.

With Li Cha's order, the monster cavalry raised their bows and arrows, and shot feather arrows at the skeletons and zombies.

Unless the arrow hits the soul fire of the undead creature, otherwise the restraint on the undead creature is very small.

Shooting off an arm bone or tibia does not affect the activities of the undead creatures at all, unless they are completely smashed and the fire of the soul is extinguished, the undead creatures can be destroyed.

There are only a few archers who can hit the head and the heart with every arrow.

Most of the monster cavalry, the archery level is roughly at the second level.This level does not go up or down. Although it is possible to aim at the opponent and hit the target, it is difficult to cause too much damage to the undead creatures.

Seeing that the arrow attack was not effective, the monster cavalry urged the iron horned horses one after another and shot magic missiles.

The power of the magic missile is very good, immediately smashing the undead creatures into pieces.

But the iron horned horse can only release three to four rounds of magic missiles, and after killing more than 200 undead creatures, it has exhausted its magic power and feels sluggish.

Li Cha didn't let the Warcraft cavalry fight with the undead creatures.

The monster cavalry in Harland's territory are all carefully selected backbones, and Richard is unwilling to put them in danger unless it is absolutely necessary.

Seeing the undead creatures approaching, the four church members following Dunlekin were all mid-level fighters. They drew their enchanted long swords one after another and stood in front of Denglekin.

Dunlekin immediately released an auxiliary magic spell, the Holy Flame Attachment spell.This fourth-order magic is a group auxiliary magic. It can attach holy flames to enchanted weapons. The holy flames carry a trace of the power of divine fire. They are very powerful in killing undead creatures, and the effect is also very good.

After the spell was released, streaks of holy flames immediately ignited on the swords of the four church knights.

The four soldiers of the Church of Dawn held up the flaming long sword, and cut off an undead creature in the middle with a light sweep. The flame attached to the undead creature and immediately burned violently. In a blink of an eye, an undead was burned to ashes.

Anyone who is hit by the holy flame, the undead creature will immediately emit a pale golden fire, and will instantly become a burning man, and the fire of the soul will be extinguished in an instant.

The four Dawn Church soldiers were extremely brave and invincible, clearing out a large area of ​​undead creatures in an instant.

Richard, Sophia and others have not made a move yet, and the number of undead creatures has been reduced by half.

However, at this moment, a strong mental wave suddenly came from the depths of the swamp, directly falling on the four soldiers of the Church of Dawn.

Their movements froze for a moment, and they screamed in pain.It was as if a needle had been inserted into the depths of the soul, and the brain seemed to be emptied in an instant.

"Everyone be careful, it's soul magic, mental whip!"

Seeing this scene, Sophia seemed to think of something, and immediately reminded everyone to be careful.

Soul magic has always been weird and unpredictable, not only difficult to learn, but also extremely difficult to guard against.

Li Cha received a materialistic education in his previous life and formed a complete three views. It is very difficult to learn this kind of idealistic magic.

The few soul magics he learned were almost all bestowed by the Goddess of Dawn, which was equivalent to the divine spells released by priests.Li Cha's magical ability is roughly equivalent to the third level.

On the contrary, Sophia and Wendy did not accept complete materialistic values. It is easy to self-recognize ideal things, but it is easier to learn soul magic.

The necromancer hidden in the dark used a soul spell to control the four soldiers of the Church of Dawn, and the remaining undead creatures rushed forward and grabbed the four soldiers of the Church of Dawn.

Upon seeing this, Li Cha immediately released the second-ring magic requiem.

A faint magical aura fell on the four warriors, their souls felt warm immediately, they immediately regained consciousness, and immediately waved the holy flame long sword to drive away the undead creatures.

In the past two years, although Li Cha failed to advance, he also learned a few new spells.

The first one is the second-ring magic tracking technique.

Although this magic is low level, it is very useful in actual combat.

It was because of Sophia's use of this magic that they found the rhinoceros and killed the rhinoceros to obtain a very crucial fund.

Sophia used the materials from the Rhinoceros to refine a batch of Tenghui Potion, and cultivated the first batch of backbones in Harland's territory.Without this group of soldiers, Harland's territory would not have developed so fast.

The second magic is the weakening ray. Anyone who is hit by this magic will immediately fall into a weak state. It is a very good field control spell.

If you want to capture a creature alive, ray of enfeeblement is definitely a very good spell.

The third magic is Dimensional Anchor, which is a typical four-ring magic that can block opponents from opening different dimensions.

The fourth magic is lightning, which is also a four-ring magic, and its single-target damage is very powerful.

After learning four new spells, Li Cha's combat effectiveness has improved to a higher level, and he has also become more comprehensive in the battle of magicians.

Seeing that the mental whipping failed, the necromancer hidden in the dark made another move, and a powerful mental wave came from the depths of the gray mist.

This powerful spiritual force was aimed directly at Li Cha.

In an instant, Li Cha lost control of his body. Although the loss of control was only for a short moment, it made him aware of the essence of this mental fluctuation.

Soul control, the soul is six-ring magic.

After using this spell, relying on powerful spiritual power, you can control your opponent from the soul.

If it is an ordinary four-ring magician, although the mental power is strong, the soul is also very concise.Facing the mind control of a high-level necromancer, he couldn't resist it at all, and he would lose control of his body in an instant.

If this magic is aimed at Sophia and Wendy, it will be very troublesome for them to resist.

Sophia, if one of Wendy is in danger, Li Cha will be in a hurry and unable to make a move.

It's a pity that this spell is aimed at Li Cha. Li Cha's soul is very special, and the power of the three gods is hidden deep in his soul.

The God of Slaughter, the Goddess of Dawn, and an unknown deity who made panels.

These three gods are equivalent to signing a special soul contract with Li Cha. If you want to control Li Cha, it is equivalent to controlling the three gods.

Although the three gods are not in good condition, the fallen ones fell, the sleeping ones fell asleep, and the missing ones disappeared.

But how could a necromancer with nine rings control the three gods?

Moreover, Li Cha's mental power is very strong, already equivalent to an eight-ring magician, and his will is very tenacious, and he is highly resistant to soul spells.Normally, they can resist this soul control spell.

Even the Legendary Lich wanted to fuse his soul, but was absorbed by the power of the Slaughter God.This necromancer hiding in the dark is not even a legend. After using soul control on Li Cha, he was immediately backlashed by magic.

Suddenly, a powerful wave of mental power exploded, and there was a faint roar from the depths of the swamp, and then all the undead creatures stood still.

The necromancers hiding in the dark were killed by the backlash of magic, and the remaining middle and low-level necromancers were leaderless.

The Necromancer is notorious and is a wanted evil force in the Dawn Plane.

Whether it is the Church of the Seven Gods, the secular kingdom, or the magic organization, they are all enemies of the Necromancer.

The necromancer has made too many enemies, and has no allies on the plane of dawn, so he can only hide and develop in the dark with few people.

These necromancers hiding in the swamp come from an organization of necromancers called the Tower of Death.

The Tower of Death was hidden in the Magic Kingdom of Makholm some time ago. It may be the most dangerous place and the safest. The Tower of Death was disguised as a small magic organization, and it has been in the Magic Kingdom of Makholm for seven or eighty years.

It's a pity that Bai Mi Yi Shu finally showed his flaws and attracted the attack of the Magic Council.

Although the Tower of Death is not weak, it is far from comparable to the Magic Council. The leader of the Tower of Death, the legendary mage Tal Rasha, was killed by the chairman of the Magic Council, Albert Sacco, and even his soul was killed by Albert, the fourth-order The magician is annihilated.

The magic council was so fierce that the Tower of Death couldn't be offended, and the remaining necromancers hid themselves. Under the leadership of the nine-ring necromancer Savio, they fled to the desolate Eagle Mountains to lie dormant.

Necromancers dare not get close to the legendary black dragon and legendary ogre occupying the east and west ends of the Eagle Mountain Range, so they can only choose to gain a foothold in the middle of the Eagle Mountain Range.They also didn't dare to get too close to the Orc Empire, so they carefully selected this mountain swamp basin.

Through some records, they found that a floating city fell in this area in ancient times. The remains of the floating city have not been found yet. A part of the mage tower was just built, but it was discovered by the scouts in Harland's territory.

Before the Tower of Death could be moved, Li Cha and the pastor of Chenxi Church blocked the door.

The pastor of Dawn Church was very restrained towards necromancers. Although Dunlekin was only at the seventh level, he suppressed Savio.

After being defeated by the Magic Council, there were only two high-ranking necromancers left in the Tower of Death. Savio fought against Deng Lekin, and Yula, another nine-ring magician, manipulated the undead to fight against Richard and others.

Yula is proficient in soul control magic, and wanted to control Li Cha's soul, but was backlashed by the magic, and the spiritual power space exploded directly.

When the nine-ring necromancer died and lost a powerful helper, Savio, the temporary leader of the Tower of Death, immediately planned to escape.

As soon as he opened the dimensional space, he was pinned by a dimensional anchor from Li Cha.

The dimensional space cannot be opened, and it has to fight against Dunlekin's holy words.Seeing that there were fewer and fewer undead creatures under command, Savio had no choice but to desperately release a nine-ring magic banshee's howl.

Howl of the Banshee is a mass soul attack spell that consumes a lot of mana.

After this spell was released, even Dunlekin had to stop chanting the holy words.

After seizing the opportunity, Savio immediately opened the space door and managed to escape before Richard stopped him.

Although Savio escaped successfully, the remaining magicians in the Tower of Death could only be reduced to captives.

There are more than [-] magicians in total, including one five-ring magician, six junior magicians, and the remaining dozen or so magicians are apprentices.

After capturing the captives, Dunlekin interrogated these necromancers with power words, and killed the necromancers with bloody debts in his hands. One fifth ring, two third rings, three second rings, and four apprentices would be burned to death.

The remaining necromancers had not committed serious crimes, and Dunlekin let them live.

Savio has a dimensional bag on his body, which took away some of the most precious resources.

However, as a legendary magic organization, the Tower of Death has a very deep foundation. It not only seized a batch of magic materials for building the mage tower, but also a lot of undead magic materials.

Although the necromancer is evil, he is at the forefront of research on the mysteries of the human body.

Lawful organizations like the Harland Territory and the Church of Dawn will not conduct large-scale magic experiments on human bodies.Although they can also conduct anatomical research, they generally only dissect executed prisoners.Occasionally dissect some enemy soldiers who died in battle.

In terms of research on the mysteries of the human body, the Church of Dawn is actually far inferior to the Tower of Death.In addition to the human experiment data, Li Cha also found some magic books, which recorded many soul spells.

These soul spells complemented the background of the Harland Mage Association.
