Magicians never make wishes

Chapter 119 Undead Rampage

The commotion was so great that it even caught the attention of the three members of the goblin squad.

"They're trying to take on a bunch of ghouls right off the bat—" The apprentice, missing his left ear, looked shocked.

During the previous mental clash, I couldn't tell that the opponent was so fierce.

"Should we also—" the apprentice missing his right ear asked the other two.

The two sides are evenly matched, so there's no reason why the other side can do it but we can't.

He felt he could give it a try.

The disfigured man glanced at the apprentice missing his right ear and said with extreme disgust, "If you want to die, don't drag me down with you."

Ghouls lack intelligence, but possess a certain level of combat intelligence.

When the white flames exploded in the center of the ghoul horde, apart from a few that were closest to it being blown to pieces, the others reflexively jumped away.

The white flames spread rapidly, but it's unrealistic to ignite them all when they encounter agile ghouls.

The green-haired, smirking man clearly hadn't anticipated this situation.

I thought that with the ghouls so densely packed, my Devouring Flame would spread to all the ghouls in a short time.

In retrospect, he overestimated the spread of the Flame Devourer and underestimated the ghouls' reaction speed.

"Your flames aren't good either," Ba Quan said, pursing his lips.

Because he is better at single-target attacks, he pays special attention to the power of area-of-effect spells.

The white flames were indeed powerful, but the so-called group was far too small.

He thought that with this move, at least half of the ghoul horde would be wiped out.

Now, things have taken a turn for the worse. After a few of them died, the entire ghoul horde became much faster due to the flames.

Ba Quan had no choice but to avoid the ghouls' frontal charge and instead go around to the side to take care of the lone ones one by one.

When Canxing saw this, his face turned green.

As the target of the charge, whichever direction he ran in, the ghoul horde would charge in that direction.

Don't come at me! Go after whoever burned it!

"Green Wolf, fire a few more rounds!" Remnant Star shouted, trying to get his teammates to divert the ghouls' aggro.

"Don't rush, let me prepare something big."

After he finished speaking, the white flames around him began to spin rapidly.

"White Night, White Night".

The remaining star howled and charged toward Ronan.

Ronan was speechless upon seeing this.

No, why are you rushing towards me?

He clasped his hands together and quickly pulled them apart, instantly generating about ten elemental ice arrows.

Then, finding the right angle, he fired two ice arrows at the ghoul running in the lead.

I don't know how good the ghoul's elemental resistance is, so I'll test it out with two shots first.

Whoosh, whoosh.

Two ice arrows pierced through, leaving two ice holes in the ghoul's body.

The ice arrows, still carrying considerable force, pierced through three ghouls before finally dissipating.

1+3+3, a total of seven ghouls, now turned into seven ice sculptures.

These seven ice sculptures are different from the previous ones; they don't have a thick layer of ice on their surface. Instead, they make the ghouls stiff and give them a blue crystal color.

It seems that ghouls have much higher frost resistance than fire resistance.

"Amazing!" Remnant Star ran up to Ronan and gave him a thumbs up in praise.

Canxing looked grateful; it seemed that Baiye was indeed capable of handling things.

"Um—" Ronan hesitated before speaking.

"What's wrong?"

Seeing Ronan's troubled expression, Remnant Star sensed that Ronan must have something important to tell him.

"Can you run that way?"

Ronan pointed in another, deserted direction and added, "I've got a big move ready to support you."

"Can I stay here and help you eliminate them instead of running away?" Remnant Star asked tentatively.

"What do you think?" Ronan narrowed his eyes and looked at the other person.

Sorry to bother you —

Remnant Star chuckled twice and immediately ran off in another direction.

While running, he shouted, "Green Wolf, is your ultimate move ready yet?"

"We'll have to wait a little longer—but if you dare to lure the ghouls over here, my ultimate attack might land on you sooner."

The green-haired, sinister-smiling man clearly wouldn't let the other party bring a group of ghouls closer.

"Don't do this! I don't want these guys following me around either!"

"I feel a little powerless," Canxing said.

Seeing that his teammates were extremely resistant, he had no choice but to lead the ghouls elsewhere.

However, the problems in this area are even greater.

The Necropolis is dangerous not only because it is home to powerful beings, but also because of countless threats lurking in the shadows.

What appears to be an ordinary depression could suddenly turn into a headless knight if you stepped into it.

Similar scenarios are not isolated cases; the deeper you go, the more common they become.

Behind Remnant Star followed a large horde of ghouls, their presence like a massive army pressing in, triggering all the hidden or dormant undead creatures in their path.

To everyone's surprise, the ghouls chasing the remnant star suddenly included many other types of undead creatures.

Headless Horseman, Soul Thief, Cave Bone Spider, Shadow Remains —

The pursuit team grew larger and larger, and its members became more diverse.

Canxing glanced back and his face turned pale instantly.

Then, without hesitation, he cast a level 0 spell, "Light Breeze," on himself to increase his movement speed.

Baquan no longer needs to deliberately launch surprise attacks from the team's flanks; now the flanks are everywhere.

With a simple reach, you can stop any demons or monsters.

The green-haired, sinister-smiling man abruptly stopped his long-prepared ultimate attack.

A horde of undead creatures of this size is unlikely to cause much of a stir with just one or two area-of-effect spells.

The same goes for Ronan.

He had originally planned to prepare a long, thin "scorching ray" to sever all the ghouls' heads at once.

Anyway, summoning a skeleton doesn't require the corpse to be intact, as long as the bones are still there.

For a ghoul, this is no different from leaving a whole corpse.

However, given the current situation, simply targeting ghouls is no longer meaningful.

The chasing procession grew larger and larger, as if it had awakened all the undead creatures at the entrance of the Necromancer's Cave.

A large number of undead creatures went berserk, finally attracting a heavyweight being.

Within the range of perception in the spiritual realm, a shapeless soul suddenly appeared.

The moment Ronan noticed the soul, it instantly changed and began to twist.

Before long, the soul transformed into Ronan's appearance.

Apart from being a little lighter in color and slightly less transparent, they are practically identical.

The "others" here include not only Ronan's appearance, but also his magic.

Suddenly, the transparent version of Ronan clasped his hands together and then quickly opened them, instantly generating about ten elemental ice arrows.

Both the casting animation and the spell's effect are exactly the same as Ronan's.

Upon seeing this, Ronan subconsciously rubbed his eyes.

Not only do they look alike, but they can even replicate magic?

The transparent version of Ronan smiled slightly and flicked his left index finger. Instantly, two ice arrows flew over the hordes of monsters, carrying unparalleled sharpness, and hurtled towards Ronan himself.
