The Witcher: From the Academy of Knights

Chapter 102 Pierre

"Unfortunately, there is no suitable target for the time being."

Sauron shook his head and sighed in his heart. Controlling the spirit body through the spirit-controlling rune can also enhance his combat effectiveness.

After all, summoned objects are also a part of strength.

However, in the vicinity of Night Crow City, there are not so many spirit bodies for Sauron to choose.

Even if you can occasionally meet a dead spirit, there is not much value in controlling it. At most, it will become Gwen's food to enhance the strength of the ghost.

Afterwards, Sauron looked at the remaining two corpses.

"spiritualism!"

In the same situation as before, two groups of souls floated out of the two corpses.

"Don't kill me! I am willing to repent!"

"Hmph! Why do those noble lords enjoy rich clothes and fine food from birth? I also want a woman! I also want status!"

Sauron waved his hand.

The ghost Gwen was ordered to pounce on the two groups of souls, devouring them as before.

After three attempts, Sauron already had an understanding of the runes of evocation.

Then, he turned and left the dungeon.

Night fell quietly, and in the sky, a crescent moon slowly lifted into the sky.

Outside the city, in a forest.

In the open space in the distance, a young man in a white robe was standing there. He was looking ahead, as if he was waiting for something.

Swish!
With the sound of swaying leaves, a figure sneaked out. After seeing the young man under the moonlight, hesitation flashed in his eyes.

"You are... Monsieur Pierre?"

The man stood there, not leaning forward, with a vigilant expression on his face.

Snapped!
The young man in white robe looked indifferent, and casually threw out a bag full of gold coins.

"Have you brought what I want?"

A sneer flashed in Pierre's eyes, and he said lightly.

"Bring... brought."

When the man saw the gold coin, a smile appeared on his face, and he carefully took out a white cloth from his pocket, which wrapped a few strands of hair.

"This is Master Sauron's hair. I took a lot of risks to find these hairs from the study."

While talking, the man handed some strands of hair to Pierre.

"Just, my lord, what do you want this thing for?"

A trace of doubt flashed in the man's eyes, but he didn't know what Pierre was going to do.

The reason why he knew the other party was because he owed a gambling debt not long ago. When he was distressed because he could not repay, he was introduced by the creditor. As long as he helped to collect some Sauron's hair, he could get enough to repay the debt and pay back There is a surplus of gold coins.

"What do you think?" Pierre sneered.

On the opposite side, a trace of uneasiness flashed in the man's eyes, and he turned around and ran wildly.

However, the next moment.

Pierre was expressionless, but raised the white wand in his hand, and a cloud of black mist surged out, throwing the man to the ground in an instant.

"what!!"

With a shrill scream, the man had been killed by the wraith, and the skin of his whole body seemed to be burnt by a raging fire, showing the appearance of black charcoal.

For Pierre, killing a man was like crushing an ant.

After waving his hand to call back the Wraith, Pierre raised a few strands of hair in his hand.

"Blood Killing Curse!"

Pierre uttered syllables. Under the moonlight, a few strands of black hair gradually turned into blood red, and eventually, they dissipated like ashes in the wind.

"Remember this taste, let's go!"

Pierre waved his hand, and two clouds of black mist surged towards Night Crow City.

At the same time, Night Crow City.

In the room, Sauron's eyes flickered, watching everything in the forest outside the city through the vision of the crow Lal, with a thoughtful look on his face.

"It's really not right!"

Sauron narrowed his eyes slightly, and a sneer appeared on his face.

As early as two days ago, he had noticed that something was wrong with that male servant, but he never exposed him, but wanted to follow the clues.

Now, everything is as expected by Sauron.

An apprentice wizard named Pierre, for some reason, had his eye on him, and sent two groups of wraiths to attack and kill him through spells.

Fortunately, Sauron had already sent Rall the Raven to monitor everything.

Otherwise, if caught off guard, even if he was not killed by the wraith, he might still be injured.

Sauron turned and left the room.

When he came to the open space at the corner of the castle, he looked around. The terrain here was spacious, and it could be used as a battlefield to deal with wraiths.

"Master Sauron, you?"

Beside, the servant saw that Sauron came here late at night, and he couldn't help showing doubts on his face.

"Order down, no matter what happens in a while, no one is allowed to come near here." Sauron said.

"...Yes, Master Sauron."

Although the servant didn't know what happened, he could see Sauron's expression, but he also felt a little nervous, and hurriedly conveyed his order.

Not long after, two groups of black mist hit in the distance.

brush!
With the appearance of the two wraiths, Sauron quickly pulled out the Broken Star Cross Sword without any hesitation on his face, and at the same time whispered a syllable.

"Ghost fire!"

Sauron uttered syllables lightly, and between swinging the sword, a dark green flame emerged from the blade.

The next moment, he suddenly thrust out a sword.

The sharp and swift blade directly penetrated the body of a wraith, and with a shrill scream, the wraith exploded in mid-air.

But soon, the pair reunited, and their arms turned into black blades.

Meanwhile, beside.

Flames ignited on the body of the other wraith, which was extremely conspicuous under the dark night, and a cold and hot breath rushed towards his face.

In situ, Sauron remained expressionless.

When he was in the Forest of Misty, he and Connard teamed up to deal with a wraith, and it was particularly difficult, but now it is not what it used to be.

Sauron, who has mastered more runes, is far more powerful than before.

What's more, although there were two wraiths attacking from the opposite side, they were not of the same level as the wraiths that Sauron encountered in the forest of mist.

Even, the combination of the two is not as dangerous as the Wraith of the Mist Forest.

It was a spirit body that was about to evolve to the level of an evil spirit. Even though Sauron had the spirit-controlling rune back then, he didn't dare to try to control it, so he could only kill it.

brush!
In mid-air, the Double-bladed Wraith screamed, and then quickly attacked.

Sauron swung his cross sword and knocked him back instantly,

Immediately afterwards, the other flame wraith opened his arms, released a flame with a wave of his hand, and went straight to Sauron's bombardment.

Sauron stepped back quickly.

While dodging the attack of the flaming wraith, a thought flashed in his eyes. Judging from the state of the flaming wraith, he should have been burned to death by the raging fire.

Therefore, after turning into a spirit body, the ability to manipulate flames can be awakened.

"Dark Soul Wave!"

After stabilizing his figure, Sauron's eyes flashed, and he stopped hesitating immediately. While swinging the Broken Star Cross Sword, a wave of dark souls condensed in front of him.

The next moment, the dark soul wave hit the past.

The flame wraith had no time to dodge, and was hit by the dark soul wave on the spot, and the phantom body exploded, like a mist that was difficult to condense.
