Rise from the coffin and rebuild the vampire empire

Chapter 98 Necromancer
"Yes! Sir, do you need to contact me immediately?"

Drake raised his head and looked at Karen. He could contact the Desolation, but whether he would get a response depended on Lord Werner's mood.

Normally, the Desolation would not respond unless there was a major discovery or something that interested Lord Werner.

And this time, Drake felt he would definitely get a response.

"Contact him."

Karen nodded. He planned to contact Werner Desolate, a necromancer. He just didn't know which generation he was from and whether he had passed down all his knowledge intact.

Two thousand seven hundred and sixty years, even the necromancer has been passed down for many generations.

A hot knowledge, Necromancer will also die.

Necromancers, with the exception of vampires, do not usually come from immortal races.

Because immortal races rarely focus on the exploration of life and death, studying necromancy is not worth the effort for them.

To prolong their lives, necromancers use magical powers to prevent their bodies from decaying, but ironically, doing so makes them look even more like corpses.

Their skin is pale and exposed, their faces are gaunt, their eyes are hollow, their mouths are bared with teeth, and they are often accompanied by the stench of tombs.

But even if he did so, the necromancer could not achieve immortality. Relying on such magical means to prolong his life could only last for one or two hundred years at best, and he might not even outlive some short-lived immortal species.

Therefore, the immortal species naturally rarely dabble in this kind of evil magic, and most importantly, excessive use of necromancy will affect a person's character and eventually make him fall into endless darkness.

When short-lived beings pursue necromancy, they don't necessarily have any evil intentions at the beginning, and they don't necessarily want to harm others.

They may be hungry for knowledge, thirst for power, seeking immortality, prolonging the life of a loved one, and so on.

But in the end, almost all those who pursued this evil power had their personalities reversed.

The reason why vampires study necromancy is because the ancestor of the Mith clan was a necromancer himself before he was transformed.

After being transformed, he was surprised to find that the power of the vampires was very compatible with necromancy. This was the beginning of the creation of vampire magic. Strictly speaking, vampire magic could no longer be considered pure necromancy.

Drake got up and left, returning to his ship, the Raven, and the Lariel pirates also returned to their own ships.

The fleet at Wangbo Port also reunited. When they saw that the flagship was surrounded by pirate ships, the other three ships did not escape directly, but surrounded them instead.

Four against two, everyone in Wangbo Port is not helpless. Besides, with Lord Karen here, everyone feels confident.

Moreover, the captains of these three ships are all old friends who have been through thick and thin with Uther, and they have a deep relationship with him. Even if Karen was not there, they would not abandon Uther and flee.

"The Desolation, the legendary ghost ship, I didn't expect it to be related to the vampires."

Seeing Drake's men leave, Uther came over and sighed.

He hadn't heard much about this "Silver Hook" Drake, but he had heard of the legend of the "Desolation", which was a long-standing legend in the empire.

Legend has it that those who die at sea may be captured by the Desolation and bound for eternity. No one has ever seen the Desolation, for those who do are forever aboard. This rumor naturally attracted the attention of the Empire and the Church of the Radiant Dawn, but the vast ocean is so vast that it's impossible for the Empire and the Church of the Radiant Dawn to search the entire ocean for a single ship. That would be like looking for a needle in a haystack, a completely futile effort.

"Thinking about it this way, there might actually be quite a few remnant forces overseas?"

Karen raised his eyebrows. It seemed that although the empire had been destroyed for nearly three thousand years, there might really be a large-scale vampire force in this vast overseas area.

Within the empire, vampires are like stray dogs, barely surviving and hiding in dark ditches. The "abandoned" are also discriminated against and wander throughout the old world.

But outside the empire, the influence of the Church of the Dawn is not that strong.

Of course, the Blood Clan Empire made many enemies when it was at its peak, and in countries outside the empire, the Blood Clan and the "Abandoned" had to keep a low profile.

The laws of the empire only protect the rights and interests of the citizens of the empire. If the vampires want slaves and prisoners of war, they naturally have to plunder the neighboring countries. The northern countries and the Lariel Sea barbarians in the south are all targets of plunder. It is normal for everyone to condemn them after they fall into poverty.

The ships began to sail. This time there were two more escort ships. Drake's "Dark Raven" and "White Raven" were guarding on both sides of the fleet. The two pirate ships with black sails as guards were also a bit surprising.

Soon, news came from the "Dark Raven". Drake waved his hand and asked the "Dark Raven" to move closer to the fleet flagship.

The ships in Wangbo Port have never been named, they are just simply numbered. The flagship is numbered Yun 3, transport ship No. 3, and the other three are naturally Yun 1, 2, and 4.

"Actually, you can give it a name."

Karen thought about it and felt that although this numbering method was convenient, it was indeed a bit sloppy. However, if there were many ships, it would be difficult to name them. They did not have such a vast territory, so they could not name them according to place names and could only come up with some random names.

"Master Karen! Master Werner responded to me!"

The "Dark Raven" approached, and there was a distance between them. Drake stood on the side of the ship and couldn't help shouting.

Drake, wearing a tricorn hat and knickerbockers, leaped over the few meters between the two ships.

"Oh!"

Landing on the deck, Drake came to Karen and knelt on one knee, holding a pale skull in his hand.

"Kakakakakaka!"

The upper and lower teeth of the skull kept colliding with each other, and black mist kept lingering. It was obviously a creation of necromancy.

Surrounded by black mist, the skull's eyes were lit up, emitting two balls of blood-red light, and the entire skull seemed to have a spirit.

The skull was held in Drake's hand, facing Karen, so Werner Desolation saw Karen first.

"Sir! Captain Werner Desolation greets you! This ship belongs to the Imperial Navy's South Bay First Fleet and is under the command of Commander Wert. It has been in service for 2,876 years!"

The skull snapped out a bunch of words, and it could be heard that the captain of the Desolation was very excited. There was a touch of flattery in his words, which made Drake feel very strange. When facing them, the necromancer was very cruel.
