Wizard: I Have a World of the Dead
024: The Lich
Lynch frowned: "The Lich..."
Unlike the ignorance and backwardness of Lolunt, where magic was still in the realm of legend.
Before its destruction, the Land of the Dead had established an unprecedentedly advanced magical civilization, and wizards and their magic had been widely integrated into human society.
At that time, there were basically some legal officials stationed in every human settlement, participating in production and military affairs.
After the world was destroyed, these sorcerers, under the control of the will to die, became immortal and indestructible spirits.
Such undead often retain some of their former spellcasting abilities and can use powerful supernatural forces.
And these are the liches.
Although the matter was somewhat sudden, Lin Qi did not panic at all.
He calmly withdrew from the battlefield immediately and hid behind a section of broken wall, while ordering all his skeleton servants to scatter.
He then began to devise a battle plan.
Although the Lich is powerful, he is fragile, has limited range, and his spells have cooldowns. Once you figure out his patterns, he's not difficult to deal with; I've faced him countless times in the game.
Of course, that's a game.
This is reality.
But the rules shouldn't change too much.
Within just a few breaths, Lin Qi immediately had a battle plan.
He first controlled three skeleton archers who were roaming outside the battlefield to climb up nearby broken walls, rooftops, and other high points.
The liches in Stormwind are all apprentices, level 10 or below, and generally only know 1 to 2 spells with a range of no more than 60 meters.
Elite-level skeleton archers have a range of about 80 meters, giving them a range advantage over liches.
Staying out of the opponent's firing range and kiting them from a distance is undoubtedly the preferred strategy.
He then separated the two agile elite undead, Number 2 and the Asdok leader, to the sides, keeping them at the edge of the lich's range but not close.
Both of them have an agility coefficient of around 8, which is the highest among Lynch's undead servants.
Apprentice-level liches have a long casting animation and average spell speed. As long as you don't get too close, you can definitely avoid the spell bombardment with your 8 points of agility.
By using these two to draw the lich's fire, the lich's magical influence can be effectively prevented from affecting the battlefield.
Finally, let the remaining undead servants maintain their formation and continue clearing out the undead on the streets. Once all of them are eliminated, the lich, now alone, will be easy to capture.
In just over ten seconds, Lin Qi completed the formation change and arrangement.
The battle has begun once again!
"Whoosh! Whoosh! Whoosh!"
A sharp whooshing sound rang out as the skeleton archers launched the first attack, with three skeleton archers occupying high ground hurling pale bone arrows at the lich.
A bone arrow pierced the lich's ribs with pinpoint accuracy. The lich's body swayed slightly, and the blue-white flames flickered.
It instinctively raised its wand and pointed it in the direction from which the arrows came.
But just as Lynch had predicted, this was beyond the range of lich magic.
Having lost its mind, it followed its fighting instincts and tried to close the distance, but before it could get close, Number 2 and the Asdok leader had already appeared in its field of vision.
The two newly appeared targets immediately caught its attention. The dark red stone at the top of the staff suddenly lit up, and a fireball roared out towards Number 2.
Lin Qi, who had been keeping a close eye on the situation, immediately ordered Number 2 to take cover, and the latter did not disappoint him.
With an agility coefficient of around 8, he retreated several steps away in an instant, barely avoiding the bombardment of the fireball.
"Whoosh! Whoosh! Whoosh!"
Immediately afterwards, another volley of arrows from the skeleton archers swept down.
On the other side, the remaining skeleton minions were once again engaged in fierce fighting with the undead army on the street.
Although these undead are numerous, they are all low-level undead transformed from ordinary people, with poor attributes, no combat skills, and no equipment.
The elite skeletons have a complete advantage in attributes over them, in addition to their skilled combat techniques and full armor.
On the battlefields of the undead world, sheer numbers are of little significance.
Their attacks only produced a crisp clanging sound when they hit the elite skeletons' armor, and did not cause much actual damage.
Instead, each attack from the skeletons was like a hurricane sweeping across the battlefield, easily reaping numerous undead.
With such a huge disparity in strength, the battle became completely one-sided.
In just over ten minutes, all the spirits on the street fell down, turning into scattered bones and incomplete, decaying corpses.
Meanwhile, the battle against the undead lich was also nearing its end.
Thanks to Lynch's ingenious plan, the lich's attacks were always drawn to Number 2 and the leader, but they were always nimbly dodged.
The barrage of attacks not only failed to reach Number 2 and the leader, but also swept up a large number of undead, greatly helping Lin Qi.
With the second skeleton archer and the leader holding them back, the skeleton archers, occupying the high ground, can unleash continuous damage without reservation.
After a continuous barrage of fire, the lich was already riddled with wounds.
Its left arm was broken, and it could only hold the wand with its right hand. It had no fewer than ten arrows in its body, four broken ribs, and cracks in its spine.
at last!
With the last three bone arrows fired.
The first bullet pierced the lich's neck.
The second nail was driven into its skull.
The third arrow pierced through its chest.
The lich's body froze in place.
The blue-white flames in his eye sockets flickered violently twice.
Then it went out completely.
"Splash!"
The skeleton crumbled with a crash, the gray-black bones piling up under the blood moon, while the dark red stone at the top of the staff rolled to the side, dull and lifeless.
The bustling streets fell silent once more.
Only a few embers remained, burning the bones and occasionally making a crackling sound.
One second...
Two seconds...
After waiting for a while and confirming that there was no further threat, Lin Qi, who had been hiding behind the broken wall, slowly came out.
He immediately went to the pile of lich skeletons.
"Lich..."
Without hesitation, Lin Qi immediately cast Necromancer on the pile of bones.
The current number of undead available for control has reached the maximum of 13/13.
I'm fainting!
How could I forget this?
Lin Qi's gaze swept over the undead servants behind him, and he quickly selected one that was relatively seriously injured in the previous battle.
This unfortunate fellow had been tripped up in the battle and was then swarmed by the undead, who inflicted considerable damage on him.
Most of the armor was torn off, several ribs inside were broken, and one of the left arms was missing.
Although this injury is nothing to the undead, now that there are better options, there's no need to dwell on it.
"Splash!~"
As the spiritual connection was severed, the spirit immediately scattered into a pile of broken bones.
Lynch crouched down again, his palm facing the lich's skeleton.
Dominate the dead.
launch.
The skeleton began to come together. Ribs joined the spine, arm bones joined the shoulder blades, and leg bones joined the hip bones. The skull rolled down from the ground and landed with a thud at the top.
A glimmer of blue and white light appeared deep within his eye socket.
The light was faint, like a candle flickering in the wind. But it was indeed dancing. It grew brighter and brighter, more stable, gradually transforming into two cold, dazzling blue-white flames.
The lich stood up.
The gray-black bones gleamed with a dim light under the blood moon.
It lowered its head, and the two blue-white flames in its eye sockets were aimed at Lynch.
Standing quietly.
Awaiting orders.
Lin Qi opened the system panel and glanced at it.
Dominate the Undead: Lich
[Level: LV8 (Low-level Apprentice)]
[Attributes: Strength 5.2, Agility 5.5, Constitution 5.8, Spirit 8.2]
[Skill Mastered: Fireball]
"Ha ha!"
Lynch was overjoyed.
From now on, his team will no longer consist of skeletons that just blindly swing swords, but will now include genuine magical skeletons that wield supernatural powers!
"With the lich here, can the bone dragon be far behind?"
Lynch was full of confidence!
