Why did the lord rebel

Chapter 263

Xia Houyan, Master Laurie, Bai Shuang, and Xuan Bing sneaked out of the warehouse of the Kemal Manor, which had been requisitioned as a field hospital, and walked around the hills to the hot center of the farm.

In view of the unknown situation and the dense danger in the manor, the rest of the Frost Maple Ridge hunting team were left in the warehouse by them-the team size of only four people was more conducive to Messi providing them with shelter.

Being in the Central Plains, the Wraith of the Wasteland also seemed much more cautious. He did not reveal his chubby spherical body, but remained invisible. When communicating with the people in Shuangfengling, his psychic electronic voice was also directly in the hearts of everyone. sounded.

However, although Messi's form is invisible, the presence of the Wraith King is still very full:

With Xiahou Daguan as the center of the circle, around the corpse touching team, Messi propped up an invisible barrier with ghostly magic power: under the burning of the flames of the Red Flame Vulture's purgatory, the temperature in the entire Kemal Manor area was low. It tends to keep getting warmer, but only within the barrier propped up by Messi, the temperature remains pleasantly cool, just like an independent foreign embassy in a war-torn zone.

"Yes..." Master Laurie, whose old face was flushed by the flames, led the lord towards the Kemal Manor while reaching out his hand to feel the fluctuation of the ghostly magic power in the air, "Messi, have you recovered your strength? "

As we all know, it is not comfortable to be exposed to the magic power of the ghost. In ancient times, there were even unscrupulous necromancers who used the magic power of the ghost to torture and extract confessions. , it is not so easy to withstand the infiltration of the ghostly magic power;
However, at this moment, the master is in the nether magic barrier, and he can't feel any discomfort in his whole body;
——This is undoubtedly due to Wraith Messi's superb magic control.

"It's early, don't you humans think it's fun to repair the space-time rift against the attack of the Red Flame Demon Vulture?" Messi's cold voice sounded in the hearts of everyone, "I was just sleeping, and suddenly felt this wave. Familiar... hmph... The magic power of purgatory fluctuates, and I just woke up-my current strength is about [-]% to [-]% of that of the heyday? And now, I am too far away from my soul anchor point, the Soul Breaking Land , there must be a discount if you start a fight..."

While Baishuang Xuanbing was still confused about what it meant to "repair the space-time rift against the Red Flame Demon Vulture's attack", the lord of Frost Maple Ridge nodded excitedly and said:

"Enough! We're not going to fight the Scarlet Flame Demon Vulture, Messi, you just need to guard us and touch the corpse!"

The wraith ball king seemed to be muttering something in the boss's mind, and finally agreed reluctantly.

"Lord, we are approaching the fire!" Master Laurie, who was walking in the front, reminded.

The field hospital of the hunting team is only separated from the main body of the Kemal Manor by a hill. As everyone circled the hill, the field of vision suddenly opened up. The Kemal Manor, which has been turned into a place of purgatory, is also under the dim dawn sky Showed his true face.

This aristocratic manor owned by His Majesty's sister-in-law has always been famous in the mainland for producing high-quality wine, but the Red Flame Demon Vulture is obviously also a pickled generation who burns zithers, cooks cranes, swallows tea and chews flowers. After this purgatory beast came to Kemal Manor , apparently no taste for fine wine:

The main building and wine cellar of the entire manor, which is closest to the Igor family and his party, have been completely swallowed by the raging flames. In the scorching flames, there will be a huge collapse of the wooden structure from time to time—and Whenever there is a hollow roar caused by casting a spell on the other side of the building, the rising flames will tremble suddenly under the impact of the magic wave, bursting into bursts of hot wind.

"The other hunting teams should still be fighting the Scarlet Flame Demon Vulture on the other side of the main building!" Master Laurie shook his sleeves, imitating the appearance of a shepherd boy, and pointed at Xinghua Village across the burning building, "Going forward, we You will be discovered, and you will be under the cover of this fire building, and you will be done if you touch the corpse a little bit!"

Xia Houyan lowered his head and scanned, and sure enough, he found that there were many corpses lying on the ground nearby, and the blood flowed like a river, reflecting the bright red reflection of the flames.

"There was a battle here too..." Bai Shuang took two steps forward, squatted down, and quickly pressed the scorched marks on the ground with her slender hands to feel the temperature of the ground, "Not long has passed, it should be a fight With that, the battlefield has shifted to the other side of the manor."

"The Scarlet Flame Demon Vulture is a flying monster." Master Laurie shrugged, "It's normal to shift the battlefield when you flap your wings suddenly."

Xia Houyan listened carefully, and the faint sounds of fighting and cursing came from the opposite side of the fire tower, confirming once again that the fierce battle between the Imperial Hunting Team and the Scarlet Flame Demon Vulture was in full swing——

——I don’t know why, there has been a vicious trend among the warriors of the empire these years. Before making moves against the enemy, they always shout out their own moves with great momentum, and they don’t know how to increase the power of the moves;
Of course, there are not a few knights with secondary disease who were killed by the enemy because they called out moves.

"Quick, quick! Move!" After confirming that there is no danger here, Xia Houyan clapped his hands like a senior foreman, and said loudly, "Let's split up within the protection area of ​​Messi's barrier and find nearby corpses worthy of resurrection ——Remember the standards we set before!”

Master Laurie and Baishuang Xuanbing reluctantly agreed.

In order to seize the time to determine the object of resurrection value, Xia Houyan had already made three contracts with the three horsemen on the way from the warehouse to the manor;
Specifically, the "Criteria for Discriminating Reusable Corpse Resources" temporarily formulated by the lord is as follows:
[-]. The corpse must be complete enough, those missing arms and legs cannot be revived;
[-]. The strength of the corpse must be strong enough, warriors below the honored knight level, and mages below the senior magician level don't even need to look at it;
[-]. It’s best to bring some used magical weapons with the corpse when it dies. When it’s resurrected, you don’t have to worry about the logistics of the Ministry of Internal Affairs. Wouldn’t it be beautiful to turn the original soup into the original food...

At that time, Master Laurie asked maliciously:
"Then if you meet the dead body of a pretty girl, will you never be resurrected?"

However, the master finally closed his mouth obediently under the lord's angry gaze.

However, the plan could not keep up with the changes, and now at the ruins of the battlefield where corpses are strewn everywhere, a group of four people discovered that it is still a bit difficult to implement the national standard for picking up corpses:

Not to mention "beautiful corpses", even a "visible corpse" is hard to find!

God is sorry to see, most of these imperial warriors were not beheaded by swords, but were burned alive by the fire of purgatory summoned by the Red Flame Vulture!

This also means that most of the corpses have been burned into indescribable coke, and even the human form cannot be discerned, let alone maintain the integrity required to be turned into a zombie by the "resurrection";

Walking among the corpses all over the floor, Xia Houyan felt as if he had walked into an Inner Mongolia beef jerky fair.

It is also fortunate that there is no "corpse shopping guide" sent by the underworld, otherwise, the four people in Shuangfengling's picking and picking of corpses all over the ground would be enough to drive out the high blood pressure of the migrant workers who are eager to complete the performance of selling corpses

After about four or five minutes, Xia Houyan, who was trying to identify the coat of arms of a relatively intact corpse on the ground, heard Master Laurie's call:

"My lord! Here! There is an awesome one here!"

Xia Houyan ran over at the speed of a [-]-meter sprint.

Master Laurie pinched his nose and was squatting on a pool of bloody charcoal. In front of him lay a black lacquered corpse, whose face had been burnt to the point of being unrecognizable.

"That's it?" Xia Houyan took the crowbar in his hand, and tentatively poked the waist of the corpse, "Is this guy almost burnt to pieces?"

"Mao!" Master Laurie tried hard to defend his "fruits of labor", "Yeah, the surface is burnt, but the whole body structure is intact, and it will definitely be revived by your resurrection!"

Xia Houyan held the crowbar and poked it again.

The soft touch from the hand verified the "appraisal result" of Master Laurie.

"So who is this guy?" Xia Houyan followed Master Laurie's example and squatted down next to the corpse, but was almost stumped by the strong smell of burning. "How is your strength?"

"It should be a lily knight from a certain territory... Ah, look, the deadwood forest..." Master Laurie reached into the charred clothes of the corpse, and pulled out a string of silver lily ornaments covered with black ash, and A small coat of arms.

"Deadwood Forest? This name sounds familiar." Xia Houyan smacked his lips.

"It's the territory of Earl Philip Netwan." Master Laurie reminded with a smirk, "That bastard just made a fool of us at the opening ceremony, you must have the impression!"

"I'm so impressed!" Xia Houyan and Master Laurie exchanged an evil look that can only be described as "wretched", and stood up holding a crowbar, "I've decided to open with this product—since Before he died, he served the evil forces, and after his death, I will convert him to the revolution!"

Master Laurie said in his heart that he didn't know who the hell was the "evil force".

Hearing that the lord was going to cast a spell to revive the corpse, Bai Shuang and Xuan Bing also surrounded him curiously.

Long before setting off from the warehouse, the cult sisters had roughly understood that the young and handsome lord would use necromantic magic to resurrect the corpse;

However, I also study Baishuang and Xuanbing of necromancy magic, and I know that "Resurrection", one of the top ten forbidden spells, is a master-level magic that is upright and innocent, so the two of them are quite curious. How did the lord of Frost Maple Ridge, who is light and has limited magic power, "resurrect" the corpse——

——I'm afraid that until now, in the minds of the two sisters, the magic swordsmen, the "resurrected corpse" claimed by the lord is still a bit of false propaganda of "just bragging, so serious about it".

But in the end, Xia Houyan didn't want to hide his "extraordinary talent" in necromancy from Baishuang Xuanbing and the others.

After all, they are not only Isa Sandria's confidantes, but also high-ranking believers of the Thin Burial Sect, no matter how they are counted, they are now members of the Igor family.

Xia Houyan nodded to Master Laurie, and then took two steps back together with the master, imitating the posture of the Christ the Redeemer and stretching his hands towards the corpse of the Lily Knight in the Deadwood Forest, preparing to recite the familiar resurrection prohibition in "Essentials of Necromancy". curse.

But Messi, the wraith who had been silent all this time, suddenly interjected in the lord's mind:
"Boss, is your resurrection technique only able to revive the corpse with the blessing of 'that adult'?"

Xia Houyan's heart shuddered.

He knew that the only one who could be called "Master" by the incomparably powerful Messi was...

"Do you know Mr. Hades?" The lord retracted his hand, covered his mouth and asked in a low voice.

"Duck... 吔... Yan..." Messi struggled for a long time but still couldn't pronounce the Chinese syllable, and sighed, "I have always felt that there is an extremely powerful existence protecting you, but this time when you are sleeping , I finally saw the vision of this adult, he told you that he was covering you, and took me to eat chicken noodle soup..."

Xia Houyan folded his arms and snorted in dissatisfaction with the big brother Tongtian's stingy habit of turning somersaults in his eyes.

You've been making excuses all day long, and you're honest and upright, but isn't this an embarrassment to your little brother and me!

When I meet the majestic King of Wraiths, you always treat yourself to chicken noodle soup... Pooh!
Shabby!Very fucking shabby!

"Boss, if your...power..." Messi deliberated for a long time before finding a term for the Lord Lord's special ability to leapfrog the necromancy spell, "...it came from that Lord, I have a suggestion. "

"What suggestion?" Xia Houyan raised his eyebrows.

He still remembered that Messi's last "proposal" was to make Shuangfengling a fortune for the elves and become the capital of wealth in the wasteland;

This wraith ball has proved his loyalty, and his revolutionary experience is quite impressive, so he has to listen to Ya's suggestion.

"It's like this..." Messi pondered, "I see, boss, you resurrect the corpses of these other territories, and you don't want to give them life again, or create a zombie bride who warms the bed, you just want a thug... …Since that’s the case, I think you can try to change the spell of resurrection by a few syllables…”

"Change the syllable?" Xia Houyan licked his lips, "I remember the course in the Academy said that certain reasonable syllable changes will slightly change the effectiveness of the spell, right?"

"Exactly! You are truly a knowledgeable magical genius!" Messi first patted unconvincing flattery, and then said in a deep voice, "Just change a few syllables, and the corpse resurrected by your resurrection will be restored." It will become an existence stronger than zombies."

"But Messi, what is the price?" Xia Houyan asked a classic question in the magic world.

"They will lose their feelings and become dead puppets completely obeying your orders, in other words, the best super thugs who don't have their own ideas and thoughts." Messi laughed, "Yes, my lord, I Teaching you how to create a permanent version of a death knight..."
