Wizard Alchemist

Chapter 64: Restraint
As expected, Raymond and the others were entangled again, and most of the summoned creatures around them were chopped to death.

Although those murloc zombies created by necromancy are called undead monsters, they are actually just corpses sustained by negative energy.

This is similar to the principle of reanimation. Once the witchcraft energy is exhausted or the body that carries it is completely destroyed, the person will truly die.

The damage they caused to the Stitched Monster was minimal, but every swing of the Stitched Monster's sword could cut them in half or even chop them into pieces.

After a series of unpretentious attacks, the undead army, which seemed small in size before, was on the verge of collapse.

However, the biggest difference between them and living things is that they have constant morale and are never afraid.

Nor is it afraid of the strong acid and venom of the Stitches.

Still holding the line tightly.

"That person hasn't given up yet, he wants to fight back!" Roy watched for a while and suddenly realized.

If Raymond wanted to escape, he would have a chance if he decisively abandoned his undead army.

But he didn't do that, instead he hid nearby and cast a spell.

The other two intermediate apprentices also used the "Bone Tooth Technique". One after another, white spiritual light as thick as a bowl and shaped like ivory flew out, making wounds on the stitched monster.

However, this attack does not cause much damage, and it looks like just harassment, interrupting and obstructing the stitched monster's chain's movement from time to time.

Finally, Raymond's spell took shape.

He raised the ogre skull magic weapon in his hand, and as he chanted in a low voice, a faint red flame slowly floated out.

The flame drifted and accelerated, suddenly rushing towards the stitched monster.

"Fire of the Underworld"!
This is a strange flame that can burn souls and lives. It can not only consume the life energy of living creatures, but also the negative energy of undead monsters and the activating energy of alchemical life!
The Stitched Monster was covered in flames and began to burn fiercely.

"Great!"

"Success!"

The two assisting mid-level apprentices cheered excitedly.

The murloc warriors they controlled seemed to be encouraged and rushed forward one after another.

They are turning themselves into fuel to help the flame burn.

Not long after, several loud bangs shook the surroundings.

That was the alchemical bomb buried in several of the corpses being detonated.

Necromancers have an evil magic called "corpse explosion", but it requires fresh life energy and can only be effective on corpses that have just died.

However, burying a bomb in a zombie's body, or even refining the entire corpse into a demonic creature similar to a fire tumor crystal, can also have a similar effect.

But just when Roy thought they could win the battle, a mysterious mark appeared above the Stitched Monster's head like a three-dimensional projection.

The Stitched Monster's momentum changed dramatically, and its intelligence seemed to have greatly increased. It actually bypassed the summoned creature and charged directly towards Raymond.

The murloc warriors were unable to stop it and were knocked away one after another.

Raymond was also caught off guard and was knocked several meters away.

The Stitched Monster raised the sword in his hand and swung it fiercely, putting Raymond in fatal danger.

He rolled over hastily, but still couldn't avoid it completely. One of his legs was grazed and severed at the knee.

"That guy is screwed!"

Roy was very surprised to see this scene.

"Lord Raymond!"

The two intermediate apprentices exclaimed in horror.

Fortunately, in addition to his witchcraft, Raymond seemed to have a good physique as well. He kicked hard with one leg and pounced towards the fish-man zombie under his control.

The murloc zombies, their scales vibrantly colored, were elite warriors far stronger than ordinary murlocs. They rushed forward to block the Stitched Monster. The Stitched Monster charged frantically, forcing its way through the horde and cleaving one of the apprentices in front of it in two with a single blow.

Raymond and the last remaining companion were suddenly in danger.

Roy finally raised the arm armor in his hand and fired a gas bullet at the stitched monster.

As the liquid splashed, the black blackening agent stained the Stitched Monster's legs and feet and began to corrode them at an alarming rate.

Under the astonished gaze of Raymond and his companions, the Stitched Monster's legs and feet made a sizzling sound and then quickly melted away.

Their eyes trembled violently: "This, this is..."

This was one of the reasons why Roy dared to come here, a Black Iron-level talent he got from that stone pit—[Darkening]!
The medicine developed by integrating innate knowledge has special effects on flesh and blood tissues.

Specially concentrated and refined, the potion is given stronger corrosiveness, making it of practical significance.

The two were in disbelief as the Stitched Monster's right leg quickly broke, and he could no longer maintain his balance and fell to the ground with a thud.

Roy fired another bullet, decisively melting the Stitched Monster's left arm that was controlling the hook.

He had just seen clearly that the sudden attack was extremely threatening, and even he would not be able to avoid it easily. If he was careless, he would be finished.

With the help of the surviving apprentice, Raymond moved to a distance of more than ten meters. He looked at Roy in shock and asked, "Is it you?"

It was dusk and everything around was dark.

But both Raymond and Roy had good eyesight, so they could still see each other's faces clearly.

Roy nodded. "This thing is not easy to deal with. How did you end up provoking it?"

Raymond was speechless for a moment.

It’s more than difficult to deal with!

It’s simply life-threatening!

He felt that he was one of the best among the senior apprentices. He had experienced various attacks before and was well aware of its ability to withstand attacks and the oppression brought by its huge body.

But this person who suddenly appeared actually easily eliminated the opponent with two "acid splashes", which made him horrified beyond words.

Raymond came back to his senses and said angrily: "It's just a coincidence, I just bumped into you by chance!"

Roy said kindly, "Let's kill it together and split the proceeds in half. What do you think?"

He did not make this suggestion for no reason, but after meeting these apprentices from Nickmanxia, he had a vague plan.

I don't have the strength to confront Ou Lun head-on yet, so it's best not to let him get on my radar.

Raymond naturally agreed to this proposal.

He has already lost a lot of money in this battle. If he doesn't kill it in one go and get some benefits from it, he will suffer a great loss.

It was rare for this strong stranger who came to save people to show kindness, so he couldn't refuse.

So the two sides hit it off and started to work together.

This stitched monster is indeed thick and full of flesh. With nearly a hundred corpses piled up, its size is comparable to that of an adult elephant.

Even though it had lost most of its ability to move, it still took them a while to successfully dismember it.

When the Stitched Monster was ripped open, revealing the heart inside that had flowed from the Cretaceous Land, a familiar feeling of trance came over him.

Roy felt it again, and a slight tingling began to form between his eyebrows.

A translucent illusory panel emerged.
