I'm really a necromancer

Chapter 241 The Uninvited Guest

Obviously, it can't be compared with the gathering of hundreds of people today. After the overall energy of the lumen stone increases, the number of shadows of the dead who attacked has skyrocketed by more than ten times.

This means that the number of apprentices gathered will most likely affect the number of shadows of the dead that strike.

Perhaps it was due to the large number of Illuminati apprentices following Yihua, reaching hundreds of people, that they were attacked by dozens of shadows of the dead at one time.

Wanting to understand this, Yi Hua suddenly became enlightened.

The strange power did not give everyone present time to breathe.

Before Yihua could make his next move, hundreds of Illuminati apprentices appeared one after another at the edge of the forest hundreds of meters away, with the appearance of the dead apprentices appearing one after another.

Just a few seconds later, more than [-] shadows of the dead attacked the hundreds of Illuminati apprentices present.

But this time, the twenty faceless phantoms summoned by Yi Hua were already prepared.

With Yihua's thought, twenty faceless phantoms launched a phantom shuttle, appearing in the area 200 meters away from the apprentices of the Illuminati, facing the shadow of the dead head-on.

When the distance between the two sides was less than 50 meters, hundreds of tentacles of fear pierced towards the thirty or so shadows of the dead.

boom!
……

Finally, under the impenetrable defense of Yi Hua and twenty faceless phantoms, half an hour flew by.

As the secret world once again fell into darkness, except for the light area centered on hundreds of Illuminati apprentices and nearly a kilometer around them, there was only darkness.

All the Illuminati apprentices present held their breath subconsciously and watched nervously.

A few minutes later, seeing that there was no longer the shadow of the dead coming, the apprentices who were enlightened by the light were relieved to see the darkness in the distance.

They, who were previously afraid of the darkness of the secret world, have never been so relieved at the reappearance of the endless dark area in front of them and the bright area covering everyone.

After witnessing the unscrupulous daytime period when the strange forces in the secret world launched attacks unscrupulously, a group of Illuminati apprentices would rather the secret world forever be in the dark period when the strange forces can only act in the dark area.

Under Yihua's previous order to all Illuminati apprentices to defend with all their strength, none of the Illuminati apprentices present at the scene died.

"It seems that the daytime period is indeed over..."

Yi Hua exhaled lightly, and looked around at the faceless phantoms who had gone through several rounds of fierce battles and eliminated hundreds of shadows of the dead.

Relying on the ability given by the tentacles of fear to attack the enemy across a distance of tens of meters.

The Faceless Shadow can often be separated from the Shadow of the Dead by tens of meters, safely killing the Shadow of the Dead.

However, although the Shadow of the Dead was unable to break through, the twenty Faceless Shadows stretched out and attacked with hundreds of fearful tentacles, engaging the Faceless Shadow in close combat.

But occasionally there will be a small number of shadows of the dead, rushing to a closer distance from the faceless shadow.

In this way, once the faceless phantom kills the shadow of the dead who is closer, it will inevitably be affected by the screaming sound that can hurt the soul when the shadow of the dead dies.

Even though the attack power of the Faceless Phantom is far superior to other third-class undead.

But when it comes to the damage from the soul level that ignores the defense, the defense of the faceless phantom is not much stronger than the ghosts such as the shadow of fear and the death guard.

The eight faceless phantoms that were missing, although none of them were killed by the screaming sound made by the shadow of the dead when it died.

However, their souls were severely injured by the continuous screams, and their combat effectiveness was greatly reduced. At the critical moment, Yihua took back the world of death in time.

Now there are only twelve faceless phantoms left on the field, and they are in better condition and still maintain their combat effectiveness.

Seeing that the faceless shadows were no longer needed to fight, Yihua did not hesitate and directly took the twelve faceless shadows back to the world of death.

After doing all this, Yi Hua looked behind him at the hundreds of Illuminati apprentices who looked tired due to the previous stress.

Although the Illuminati apprentices present except Yihua did not exert much strength in the process of resisting the shadow of the dead.

But Yihua still gave these Illuminati apprentices who carried out Yihua's order to protect themselves with all their strength, frequently performed defensive witchcraft, and consumed a lot of magic power, and gave orders to take a temporary rest and restore their magic power.

"Phew, I can finally breathe."

"Now I have hundreds of points, which is enough to pass this apprenticeship exam. I hope I can spend the next two days safely..."

"I don't want to continue collecting points, now I just want to get out of this goddamn place immediately!"

Yihua did not talk to the Illuminati apprentices present, or appease their emotions, but directly took out a resonance stone from his pocket, and once again perceived that it was thousands of meters away, representing Gabriel and other Illuminati. Apprentice's resonance fluctuates.
-
At the same time, thousands of meters away, Gabriel, Rey, Enzo and other hundreds of apprentices are around the giant lumenite vein——

"Huh~ I didn't expect that I survived..."

A second-class apprentice who temporarily joined the Loose Apprentice Alliance sat down on the ground without hesitation in the sticky sludge full of blood and blood mixed with a large amount of blood on the grass.

Exhausted from the previous battles, he looked at the corpses of apprentices scattered all over the place, as well as some of the apprentices who survived by chance, almost all of whom were seriously injured, a look of gratitude flashed across his eyes.

During the previous daylight fall, in the battle with the Shadow of the Dead created by strange power, the five forces around the giant lumen stone veins had all their trump cards.

Faced with an attack of nearly a hundred shadows of the dead, at the peak period, a wave of shadows of the dead approached twenty.

Out of the desire for life, the five forces on the field tried their best to fight.

In the end, with the death of more than a hundred apprentices, they barely survived this difficult half hour, in exchange for the final victory.

Perhaps it was the huge lumenite veins containing tens of thousands of points on the field, and hundreds of apprentices carrying points played a role.

The five forces competing for the giant lumenite veins totaled hundreds of people, but the attacks they suffered were much smaller than the attacks Yihua received from the Shadow of the Dead.

In terms of the number of Shadows of the Dead who participated in the attack, Yihua's attacks were three times that of the five forces fighting around the giant lumen stone veins!
In terms of the number of shadows of the dead that appeared and attacked at the same time, the number of shadows of the dead that Yihua encountered that attacked at the same time was twice that of the five forces fighting around the giant lumen stone vein!
But this is for the people around the giant lumenite vein in front of them, there is no Yihua who is like a pinnacle of the sea, and there are only five third-class apprentices.

Even the number of shadows of the dead he faced was far from being comparable to what Yi Hua faced.

But for the apprentices present, the previous battle was several times more tragic than the steady and methodical battle between Yihua and the Shadow of the Dead.

Fortunately, although nearly a quarter of the apprentices were lost as a whole, thanks to Gabriel's command and the role of the Life Orb.

The Illuminati led by Gabriel, with 50 people, was the one with the smallest loss among the five forces present.

In the previous battle between the Illuminati forces and the Shadow of the Dead during the day, only about one-tenth of the losses were suffered.

In contrast, even under the leadership of Rey, the most powerful Silver Star Club among the current apprentices of the academy, in the battle just now, paid a quarter of the whole, the price of twenty apprentices!
As for the forces led by three third-class apprentices including Rapp, and the loose apprentice alliance with the largest number of apprentices, but without a third-class apprentice, they lost nearly a hundred apprentices in total.

Among them, there are more than [-] first-class apprentices and more than [-] second-class apprentices.

There was even a third-class apprentice who entered the secret world earlier than Yihua. In the previous battle, he was surrounded by several shadows of the dead and accidentally died!

Even if there is only one person, Enzo, who is a third-class necromancer apprentice, has now been reduced to a situation where his mana is exhausted, and there are few remaining death guards enslaved by his men and one-time magic items to restore mana.

The situation around the giant lumenite vein did not remain stalemate for too long.

As time slowly passed, several top apprentices were the first to recover from the wear and tear of the previous battle.

Rey glanced at the huge crystal-like lumen vein not far away, exuding moon-white light, his eyes flashed, and he said casually:
"Time is precious now and cannot be wasted. What should we do next?"

Hearing Rey's temptation, Enzo, who recovered his magic power on the other side, summoned eight death guards again, and said with a cold snort:

"Hmph, now that the daylight period has passed and there are no more attacks from the shadows of the dead, it is natural to continue to compete for the giant lumenite vein in front of us!"

Hearing Enzo's answer, Rey frowned, glanced at Gabriel and the other two remaining third-class apprentices, and suggested:

"The number of apprentices on the field is greatly reduced now. The previous daytime period may come again at any time. In order to survive these three days, we should try our best not to kill each other."

"Why don't our forces peacefully distribute this giant lumenite vein in front of us according to the number of shadows of the dead that were previously killed?"

Hearing Rey's answer, Enzo sneered and didn't answer.

The number of shadows of the dead that Rey killed was the most among the hundreds of apprentices on the field!
If the huge lumenite veins in front of him are allocated according to the number of shadows of the dead killed, it is obvious that Rey is the one who benefits the most.

Of course, Rey also paid a lot for fighting against the nearly one hundred shadows of the dead.

Enzo, who didn't agree with Rey's proposal, quickly made a silent calculation in his mind.

"According to what Instructor Selina said before I took the exam, in the past apprentice exams, although the world of the secret world also had day and night, there was no such terrifying attack by the shadow of the dead!"

"Nowadays the world of secret realms is constantly changing, not to mention leaving the world of secret realms through tokens, and even communicating with the outside world. If I had known that competing for this giant lumenite vein would cost hundreds of death guards, I would not have entered this muddy water. It's..."

After a brief battle with Yi Hua, and a battle with the shadow of the dead during the daytime in the secret world, Enzo was in the world of death, and there were less than thirty third-class undead death guards enslaved by Enzo.

And before entering the secret world and taking the apprenticeship exam, the number of death guards under her command was close to two hundred!

Capturing and enslaving such a large number of Death Guard took a lot of her time.

Now, in just one day, it has been almost exhausted. This made Enzo, who was lavish in summoning the undead and rarely cared about consumption, couldn't help but feel a little pained.

In fact, if it is not gathered together, it is dragged down by the number of apprentices on the field.

Under normal circumstances, if Enzo acted alone during the daytime, he could only attract attacks from a few shadows of the dead at most, and there would be no such exaggerated losses at all.

Seeing that Enzo disagreed with his proposal, Rey turned his head and looked at the leaders of several other forces.

At this moment, Gabriel, as well as the third-class apprentice Rapp and the other surviving third-class apprentice, were also silent and did not support Rey's proposal.

After all, in the previous battle.

Relying on psychic armament and the protection of the apprentices of the Silver Star Society under his command, Rey, who continuously performed the third-class soul-eating and flying head witchcraft, was the apprentice who eliminated the most shadows of the dead, none of them.

Seeing that the other forces did not agree to his proposal, Rey was preparing to follow the previous routine and try to communicate with the remaining four forces secretly.

Unexpectedly, at this moment, a burst of rapid footsteps in the distance interrupted the thoughts of everyone who was a wizard apprentice and had keen senses.

Without hesitation, Rey, Enzo, Gabriel and other leading apprentices from various forces responded.

The other hundreds of apprentices also raised their heads and looked into the distance.

A few hundred meters away, at the edge of the forest, a thin second-class apprentice wearing a Masonic scarlet vertical eye badge stepped out of the forest and appeared in the eyes of everyone.

After a while, four apprentices who also wore the masonic scarlet vertical pupil badge came out from behind him.

If someone pays attention, it can be seen at a glance.

The five masonic apprentices in front of them are the same five masonic apprentices who joined the loose apprentice alliance competing for the giant lumenite vein before, and then found a chance to leave and disappeared!

"Huh? It seems to be a Masonic apprentice?"

"Hasn't the Freemasonry been hit hard by an unknown existence some time ago, and even marked as the headquarters, has it already existed in name only?"

"Hmph, there are only two or three big cats and kittens left in the Freemasons now, which are not worth mentioning at all!"

Due to the extremely poor reputation of Freemasonry, almost no one among the hundreds of apprentices present had a favorable impression of Freemasonry.

Especially the Silver Star Society headed by Rey and Gabriel, and the apprentices of the Illuminati Society.

Rey, who was once humiliated by Melkor, as Melkul's old enemy, naturally needs no further mention.

Long before he met Yi Hua, Gabriel had been blackmailed by the Freemasons many times, bullying more and being forced to hand over the witch crystal in his hand.

More than two months ago, when Gabriel was once again threatened and blackmailed by the Masonic apprentices, he was rescued by Yi Hua who showed up and was influenced by the Holy Light spell, so he joined the Illuminati.

Some time ago, Gabriel was humiliated by the vice president of the Freemasonry Bloody Hand in the college competition.

Not long after Bloody Hand was killed by Yi Hua.

Gabriel and dozens of apprentices of the Illuminati were once again besieged in the cave outside the college by the interim vice president of the Freemasons Jess.
