Wizard Alchemist

Chapter 501 Frontline
"Lord Roy, welcome back."

"Is Lord Uller here?"

"Yes, he's waiting for you inside."

Soon after, in the city below the castle, in front of the lord's mansion.

The guard at the gate greeted Roy, then made way and invited him in.

As expected, Uller was waiting inside.

Roy stepped forward and saluted, "Sir, I have completed the task you assigned me."

Uller saw Roy coming back with the captured Heartless and nodded slightly.

"You're back so soon. It seems you're really efficient."

Roy said, "It's just capturing a high-level knight-level Heartless. It's nothing."

Uller said, "Some wizards are so difficult to find that they are slow to act. If you delay for a few days, you might not even be able to set out, let alone complete the mission."

Roy: "..."

It’s really possible!
“You should also be aware of the situation here.

We are trying to conquer this world, but there are some powerful Heartless people among the natives, and they may not be willing to do so.

If we want to capture it, we must not only understand the origin of the Heartless, but also fight against the Heartless army formed by the indigenous kingdom!
They have a large population, so no matter what, they can form a strong army of Heartless People, and then use special rituals or treasures to control them.

Therefore, the Alliance needs your services, so it issued a call to allow wizards like you to join. "

Uller briefly explained the whole story and made a promise to Roy.

"Your goal is to obtain a peak-level Tailin and use it to achieve the Tailin Witch Body..."

Then help me conquer the Kingdom of Gmid and defeat the army they control.

It was a small country with no strong people above level two, but there were quite a few level zero and level one heartless people.

There were originally two wizards stationed there, and they were feeling a bit overwhelmed. With you, the situation should improve."

"So, my main task is to support them?"

Roy asked tentatively.

"Can we act alone?"

"As long as you have the ability."

Uller said without comment.

"Okay, I understand."

"I'll also credit you for this mission. If you need anything in return, you can come to me."

As he spoke, an eye symbol appeared above his head.

That was his personal shop mark, with dense handwriting inside, listing various witchcraft materials and props that could be exchanged.

Roy took a quick glance and felt that most of them were corpses, puppets and the like. In addition, this mission was just a trial run and there was not much reward to be gained, so he simply selected a piece of mercury worth more than 1000, intending to use it for [Flamel's Fortune] to refine gold.

Although this thing is not valuable, it is still time-consuming and laborious to mine.

So make some reserves.

“By the way, I also buy corpses from outside.

If you kill those Kingdom soldiers, you can hand over their intact bodies to me.

Preference will be given to those who are physically strong or beautiful.

As for the common people...

I take it too.

But it has to be in large quantities.”

After Roy finished his selection, Uller spoke in a calm tone, words that were enough to frighten the indigenous people.

……

"Buying corpses, is this intended for use in traditional necromancy, or is it for the creation of the Heartless?
If you combine this with monsters like zombies, it might be really scary."

Leaving Uller's place, Roy couldn't help but think.

But he wasn't a wizard from Nicomanxia, and his main magic skills and development direction weren't here, so he didn't think about it any further. He immediately set out on his journey, heading directly to the place called the Kingdom of Gmid.

At this time, the two wizards over there had also learned about his arrival from Wizard Uller, and rushed back from the border as soon as possible to meet up with him.

These two colleagues seemed to be necromancers from Nickmanxia. They both looked haggard and skinny, like dried corpses that had been drained of all water.

One of them had half of his face peeled off, probably because his body had been decaying for too long, revealing his white bones.

"My name is Garcia, nice to meet you."

He grinned, and his half-skeleton face revealed an expression uglier than a ghost.

But the teeth are very white.

Another person said, "Garde."

They all possessed strong magic power, and their auras were slightly chilly. Like Roy, they had all reached the peak of level one.

But compared to the "enthusiasm" shown by Garcia, this Garde wizard seemed much more indifferent.

“We are here, and we are strong enough to deal with the Kingdom of Gmid.

Since you are new here, you should listen more, observe more, and understand our strategy for this place. It will not be too late to take action later."

"Ok?"

Roy was slightly surprised when he heard this.

This person's words have hidden meanings.

However, he could also roughly hear that the other party did not seem very happy to see him arrive.

Roy smiled, looked him up and down, and said calmly, "I know what to do. You don't have to worry about it."

Gard choked and his expression became even gloomier.

But the various rules of the wizarding world are designed to prevent these people from causing infighting among themselves.

Faced with a powerful enemy, no one dares to confuse the importance of things and intensify the conflict.

So he endured it.

Roy turned to look at the followers brought by the two men. Among them were quite a few undead summons, mostly zombies and corpse monsters.

Suddenly, he saw some monsters that were patrolling outside, climbing the rock wall flexibly and heading towards the cliff of a nearby hill.

"Is that... a zombie?"

Roy almost thought he was seeing things.

Traditional zombies are slow and clunky.

There shouldn't be such performance.

"Could this be a zombie created by the Heartless?"

Roy couldn't help but guess.

Garcia grinned and said to him, "Your Excellency has a good eye. This is indeed a zombie created by the Heartless.

This group of creatures can run and jump, are more agile than monkeys, as strong as giant bears, and some can even fly.

It can be said to be a specialty of this world."

From his explanation, Roy learned that the corpses of the Heartless possessed strength far exceeding that of ordinary people. If they could be captured alive and transformed into zombies, they would be even more powerful monsters.

It doesn't matter if a zombie has a broken heart, and it doesn't matter if a heartless person has a head that falls off.

They do not affect each other, and are even equivalent to having two lives!

"How can it still be like this?"

Roy's eyes lit up.

That being said, this place is indeed a treasure land for those necromancers.

However, he had just arrived, and the only Heartless prisoners he had were handed over as mission props, so there was nothing else for him to study.

It seems that if you want to get the Wuxin people, you have to find a suitable opportunity.
