Chapter 36 The Skeleton Magician

Dozens of plague zombies suddenly appeared on the edge of the cliff, attacking Roger's relatively weak defense flank. 【】Although Roger immediately mobilized the backup spear militiamen to assist in the battle, it was still a step too late.In the end, two plague zombies broke through the defense line of the spear militia, and they were close enough to these soldiers to infect the plague.

A zombie suddenly opened its arms and hugged a spear militiaman, and opened its dry mouth to bite down on the opponent.Although other spear militiamen immediately wiped out this plague zombie, a layer of green air immediately appeared on the face of the spear militiamen hugged by it.Roger also sensed that the movement of the spear militia was much slower, as if he didn't obey his command.

"Oops!" Roger sighed inwardly, and immediately ordered the spear militiamen to leave the queue and launch a suicide attack on the enemy.

Since the Pike Militia will be affected by the plague, it is also possible to pass the plague to other soldiers.Roger didn't want to lose all the spear militiamen because of the plague, so he issued this order in time, to prevent the spread of the plague, and to destroy as many enemies as possible.

The spear militiamen did not disappoint Roger's expectations. Although they only launched a surprise attack alone, they also eliminated several plague zombies along the way.However, before Roger was happy, several colorful balls of light flew from the darkness in the distance, accurately hitting the spear militiaman, knocking him down in an instant.

These spheres of light were clearly the magical magic fly cast by the magician. Roger's heart tightened when he saw this scene, knowing that the crisis he encountered was greater than he imagined.Such a large group of plague zombies is enough to cause headaches, but it is even more difficult to deal with magicians guarding them.

Immediately after the opponent casted the first Magic Fly, colorful balls of light flew out from behind the plague zombie one after another, and then knocked down several spear militiamen, making Roger's originally not so tight line of defense even more slack.

Several plague zombies took this opportunity to rush to the gap. Thanks to Roger's proper command, and the fact that the spear militiamen were in touch with him, and executed orders in a timely manner, they managed to keep the enemy out of the defensive circle.

But even so, Roger paid the price of two spear militiamen, and another two spear militiamen were infected with the plague.Roger had to order them to carry out a suicide attack, so as not to spread the plague to others.

Although the spear militiamen who carried out suicide attacks killed several times the plague zombies, they did not help the overall battle situation much.There are too many undead creatures, and the death of a dozen more has no effect on them at all.

On the contrary, Roger felt very heartbroken at the loss of so many spear militiamen. If this situation continues, there will be no soldiers under him before dawn.

Roger in Nye could only shrink the line of defense and let the spear militia form a smaller defensive circle.However, in this way, the plague zombie will inevitably be closer to Roger, and his risk of contracting the plague will also increase.

What comforted Roger was that the plague zombies didn't seem to be in a hurry to attack at this time. They retreated out of the attack range of the spear militia and slowly separated to the two sides. The guy who was hiding behind the plague zombies and casting magic was finally revealed what they really are.

These are several undead creatures in black robes.The tattered black robe swayed with the breeze, occasionally revealing the pale skeleton under the robe.The fire of souls burning in the eye sockets of these undead creatures is much brighter than that of plague zombies.Although their whole bodies have almost turned into bones, their lips and tongues are still intact.Because the attack method of these undead creatures is to cast magic, they must keep their lips and tongues to help cast spells.

"Fuck, Skeleton Magician!" Seeing these weird undead creatures, Roger couldn't help but swear.

Skeleton magicians can be regarded as super undead creatures. It is said that these guys were all magicians in life, and they retained some spellcasting abilities after death, which is a type of undead creatures that rarely have spellcasting abilities.

The skeleton magician can only cast the simplest magic like Magic Fly, but its lethality cannot be underestimated.Especially now that Roger has only spear militias under him, and there are no long-range attack units at all, the skeleton magician can exert the greatest power.

"If these guys can't be eliminated, everyone will die here tonight." Roger understood his current situation and began to think of ways to deal with the skeleton magician.

In fact, the best unit to deal with these undead creatures is the archer.The bodies of magicians are very fragile, even if they become undead creatures.Just shoot a few arrows at the Skeleton Magician to turn them into a pile of bones.

The problem is that the only one on Roger's side who can shoot arrows is Mike. If he is allowed to attack now, he may not even wipe out a single enemy, and he will be blasted to pieces by the opponent's magic.Roger needs a sufficient number of archers to destroy the skeleton mages in one fell swoop before they can counterattack.To complete this plan, a primary shooting range must be built, and then a certain number of short archers must be trained.

"The power of the soul is enough, but where can I get other materials right now?!" Facing the imminent crisis, Roger was also at a loss.

However, those skeleton magicians did not continue to attack, but stood quietly like that, as if they wanted to put more psychological pressure on Roger and others.At the same time, a figure slowly came out of the darkness, silently sizing up Roger and the others who were waiting in full force.

Roger could tell at a glance that the guy who appeared last was definitely not an undead creature, because there was no trace of soul fire in his eye sockets.A human being mixed with undead creatures, his identity is naturally ready to be revealed.

This also made Roger understand why the cooperation between these plague zombies and the skeleton magician was so tacit, and they even assumed a threatening posture at this time, all because of the command of the necromancer behind the scenes.

The appearance of this necromancer also made Roger's heart sink to the bottom. Originally, a group of plague zombies plus a few skeleton magicians were difficult enough to deal with, but now there is an extra necromancer. The biggest crisis that Renzo encountered after the world.

The Necromancer looked at everyone quietly, and after a while he said in a hoarse voice: "With the strength of you people, you can indeed defeat the two trashes, Van Doren and Lear. Who is your leader, come out and fight I spoke!"

Roger knew that there was no point in concealing his identity, so he immediately responded, "It's me!"

"Very good." The necromancer's next words surprised everyone: "You surrender immediately and go to meet someone with me. In return, I can make other people die more quickly."
