The attack hit only an illusion; the real target escaped.
But it didn't run very far; at this distance, it was still easy to harvest.
You dare steal my Sichen's T-shirt? Even God himself couldn't save you! I'm telling you!
Then, a scene that surprised Wan Qi appeared: several corpses covered in Originium crystals suddenly stood between the attacker and his own slash. Moreover, these corpses would explode when hit, and with a defensive mechanism similar to reactive armor, they saved the attacker.
Wow, manipulating corpses in front of a necromancer, that's interesting.
Section 28: Corpse Party
(Need some comments from everyone to add some inspiration, hurry up (**3*))
Everyone has their own unique talents. The difference lies in the fact that some people's talents are irreplaceable, while others' talents are so exceptional that it's like the proverb "Why did Heaven create both Zhou Yu and Zhuge Liang?"
The same applies to Originium Arts, but Mephisto of the Reunion Movement was quite satisfied with his Originium Arts.
The price of an infected person using Originium Arts is a worsening of their infection, since they are using themselves as the medium for casting spells. However, Originium Arts that manipulate corpses are indeed very special. The "herd" that has no pain and only carries out orders is Mephisto's proudest creation, and he once used these creations to take revenge on those who bullied him.
Now that he has mastered his Originium Arts, he can unleash this rage on everyone, letting this unjust world burn in flames.
One's own herd is invincible; no one can kill a dead person.
"That's interesting..."
Wan Qi didn't know what the group of undead were called, but he was indeed interested in the related technology.
After all, necromancers occupy a very special ecological niche and don't have many opportunities to meet their peers. Moreover, Wan Qi is a wild necromancer who only knows how to steal other people's loot. So even if it's just a purely academic exchange, he wants to learn more about him.
But when he spotted a boy among the herd, he immediately abandoned the idea.
The other person's demeanor and expression clearly indicated that he was a male brat.
Simply put, they are the kind of brats who have power but no one to educate them, and soon become arrogant and break the law everywhere.
The other party may have a tragic past and a miserable background, but what does that have to do with the victims?
Does this mean they have to recall the murder before sentencing to determine guilt? Ridiculous!
If Wan Qi were alone, he would definitely capture that little devil and interrogate him severely. But now he has someone behind him, and he doesn't trust anyone else to hand over Wilting to, so he decides to retreat first.
"Now that you're here, don't even think about leaving!" Mephisto ordered the herd to attack.
I didn't provoke you, so why did you provoke me?
"Get them!"
Wan Qi pointed his scythe, and the corpses on the ground suddenly began to swell, then charged towards the herd in all sorts of abstract and idiotic poses. The whole process could only be described as a chaotic dance of demons, with everyone tumbling and crawling.
But after colliding with the herd, Mephistopheles emitted a sharp, explosive sound.
Necromancer's Magic: Self-Destructing Zombie.
An entire block was instantly lifted into the air. Mephistopheles was originally within the blast radius, but Faust managed to pull him out in time, though his herd was blown to smithereens.
Playing with corpses in front of a necromancer is no different from comparing pigeons with Little John Khan.
The purity is too low, young man.
"Doctor!" Amiya's voice came from afar.
"The little rabbit is getting anxious, let's retreat."
Wan Qi, carrying Wilting on his back, quickly moved closer to the main force.
But at that moment, a new attack came from the side, this time with a chilling aura from Originium Arts.
"So you've switched from playing with corpses to playing with ice, huh?"
Wan Qi didn't even bother to retaliate. He directly used his mental energy to activate his magic, and a wall of earth rose up from the ground to block the ice spikes.
Earth Magic, Earth Wall, Resilience Enhancement
Without magic that enhances certain attributes, the actual combat effect is only mediocre. For example, the 1999 Pursuit without the Paper Letter Circle is not unusable, but its effect is definitely greatly reduced.
Ordinary earthen walls have good thickness and strength, but average toughness. Furthermore, earth magic deployed on the battlefield does not require additional magic power to maintain after it is formed. Therefore, the effect is better after adding enhancement attributes.
Of course, excellent earth magicians are dual-wielders of earth and wood magic, because these two elements are relatively easier to obtain. If they also have metal magic, that would be even better, allowing them to make their enemies feel the weight of reinforced concrete in no time.
The enemy's attack was repelled, and Amiya and the others were successfully protected. But then, a rapidly spreading layer of ice appeared on the ground. These ice crystals were very sticky, and they would immediately attach to living beings, forcibly freezing people's feet. They had a very precise attack target.
In response, Wanqi stomped his foot, unleashing magic that vibrated at a special frequency, shattering the ice layers down to the level of water molecules.
Ether Magic o Ultrasound.
Magic that is not within the traditional magic system is basically classified into the category of ether, which can be understood as a great miscellaneous thing. Its characteristic is that it has seventy-two variations, making it difficult to defend against. Its disadvantage is that it requires a very high level of skill to operate. Users must be proficient in at least three elements.
"The enemy has a very powerful mage; this is their home turf."
Dobermann's warning revealed two things: first, the enemy was very strong; and second, the weather was very cold.
The Ursus Empire is located in the northern part of the Terra continent, where the temperature hovers around zero degrees Celsius year-round. This environment is perfect for spellcasters whose Originium Arts are characterized by cold and freezing.
"The enemy is closing in; we need to break through."
Through the battlefield command system, Wilting observed that many Reunion Movement members were moving towards the area, far exceeding the number of Rhodes Island members.
"Miss Amiya, Team ACE has returned to the team. Please give instructions."
A new squad directory appeared in the communication channel, and then a group of fully armed elite operators joined Amiya's squad.
With more team members, there are naturally more tactics to choose from. However, the expressions on the faces of these elite operators after meeting Wanqi and Virtin were quite interesting.
"Were there originally two people working on our PhD program?"
"So this is what's under the doctor's clothes."
"Which PhD do you think we're in frequent contact with?"
"I've never heard of the Doctor liking to use daggers as weapons."
In short, many people joined the discussion, and the atmosphere at the scene was hard to explain.
However, both Wan Qi and Wei Erting realized one thing: none of these people had ever seen the true face of that so-called doctor.
"Do you think you can keep lying like this forever?" Wanqi asked Wilting via telepathic communication.
[Of course not. There must be someone on Rhodes Island who knows the Doctor, and we'll definitely be exposed.]
What do you plan to do then?
[It depends on their reaction, but sincerity is the best solution; at least Amiya deserves my trust.]
[The little rabbit is indeed very good, so let's settle on that for now and prepare to break through.]
Okay! 1
Then, Wanqi put Virtin down.
"You all go first, I'll cover the rear," Wan Qi said to the group.
"This won't do!"
"It's too dangerous, Doctor!"
Amiya and Dobermann both expressed their opposition.
Wan Qi's strength is undeniable, but so is the sheer number of enemies. To quickly eliminate these enemies, you need to unleash a powerful AOE attack that clears the entire screen, and your mana bar needs to be long enough.
This isn't Thermopylae, so there's no way to hold off ten thousand men here.
“It’s okay, trust him,” Virtue said.
She was well aware of Wan Qi's strength, but Wan Qi couldn't unleash his full power while protecting himself. Her departure with the Rhodes Island crew was equivalent to the seal being broken, and she believed that Wan Qi would soon resolve the problem and catch up with the team.
"Hurry up, don't get in my way."
Wan Qi waved his hand, and the inlaid knife transformed, folded, and became a battle axe.
There are many ways to kill someone; you don't have to be bound by the circumstances.
"Please come back! Everyone on Rhodes Island is waiting for the Doctors!"
Hearing Amiya's words, the little rabbit really believed that the Doctor had two.
At that moment, Dobermann walked over and said, "Doctor, let me carry you."
"Hmm, thank you for your help..."
Knowing that his physical abilities couldn't keep up with these land superhumans, Virtin decisively chose a new mount.
"Wanqi, be careful," Wilting said to Wanqi via telepathic communication.
The latter made an OK gesture.
Rhodes Island's forces began to retreat, and Reunion thugs began to surround them, then they were entangled in a pile of corpses.
Literally entangled, those corpses "came back to life".
"I've never used proper necromancy before, could you please test me?"
In Wan Qi's hands, a ghostly blue spiritual flame burst forth. These soul fragments, processed by necromancy, possessed the corpses in a completely new "soul" state, and then forcibly moved the corpses, allowing them to move like zombies.
Necromancer O Zombie O Speed Enhancement
Unprocessed zombies are quite weak in combat, but with targeted enhancement and other necromancy, they can surely bring the enemy an unparalleled surprise.
Because when these various movement methods rush towards the enemy at a reckless speed, what awaits them is the Corpse Explosion spell.
Unlike the self-destructing zombie, which is created to rush towards the enemy and explode, the former can be prepared in advance to ambush the enemy and then suddenly attack, achieving the effect of stealing T and absorbing 1.
The scene instantly resembled the battlefield between Russia and Ukraine, with continuous explosions and screams drowning out everything, and the dead enemies immediately turned into fresh corpses, rejoining the necromancer's army.
This is what makes necromancers so annoying on the battlefield. In addition to defending against their various deadly spells, you also have to be wary of those corpses that suddenly stand up on the battlefield. Especially when your former comrades return from the dead and fight with you, the mental damage they cause can be greater than the physical and magical damage.
So there's a reason why necromancers are hated; they can be incredibly annoying on the battlefield, even if they can't kill anyone.
However, the more hated a profession is, the more likely it is to survive, and the more formidable its strength should not be underestimated. The fact that necromancers have been able to pass on their skills continuously, iterate over time, and even become more and more brilliant and prosperous in terms of technology is enough to prove the success of this path.
At least those guys who were killed by necromancers would never admit that this path was a failure, otherwise wouldn't that be a way of proving that they died like clowns?
So drag all those who make anti-Japanese war dramas out and shoot them for five minutes, using 11:30 to execute!
"Spells that manipulate the dead... Rhodes Island has such dangerous sorcerers."
No sooner had he finished speaking than an ice spike struck Wan Qi, then suddenly shattered.
The mental barrier not only defends against magical attacks, but also provides decent physical defense, essentially functioning as a type of energy shield.
Amidst the dissipating dust, a girl who appeared to be of the same race as Amiya, but was clearly a white rabbit, stood before Wan Qi.
"Your opponent is me!"
Chapter 29: Welcome to the Dead Zone of Exorcism
(Calling for comments and votes! This seedling needs nurturing, everyone~)
"Hey, Miss White Rabbit, I admit I played with corpses, but corpses are dead people, they're still much better than you playing with living people, right?"
As Wan Qi spoke, he pointed to a female corpse nearby. "Judging from the state of the body, she must have suffered inhumane treatment before her death—the kind of treatment that even the news broadcast would require encrypted language to describe."
“We are different from them!” Froststar said firmly.
"Different? How are you different? Why don't you ask the people who live here how you are different from them?"
Wan Qi's face was full of sarcasm, but he gleaned important information from the other party's words.
The Integration Movement is not a monolithic entity, and ideological differences can be fatal to any organization.
Faced with Wan Qi's questioning, Froststar was speechless. This matter was indeed a problem of the Integration Movement. As for distinguishing, did the artist distinguish whether the fish was from the deep sea or the shallow sea when he was forcefully removing oil? Soap factories don't pick and choose raw materials; they even want more.
This is a crime committed by the entire organization and will not be pardoned because of any one person's special status. This is why reputation is so precious and hard to come by. If you taint it once, you will be suspected. Unless the organization itself has a strong ability to cleanse itself, resolutely corrects its mistakes, and stands at attention after being punished, it can only wait to gradually deplete the organization's credibility.
Looking at Chernobog's situation now, it's clear that Reunion has gambled away all of its reputation points.
They even transformed the neutrality and neutral-to-hostile attitudes of other ordinary people into irreconcilable hatred.
It's true that mistakes are unavoidable when an organization is running, but how much will they have to pay to make up for such a huge mistake in the future? To put it bluntly, can the Reunion Movement afford such a price?
Froststar didn't know that she couldn't even guarantee she would live to see that day.
The Reunion Movement is indiscriminately harming everyone in Chernobog, including themselves.
Froststar's eyes were filled with deep worry and an unspoken unease of conscience.
