Something's wrong with my undead

Chapter 309 From Apprentice to Archmage

“The tent was set up on the airship, and the airship was parked on the ground.

"However, the withered plants that you failed to kill completely in the past were controlled by strange beasts and sent the airship here like a conveyor belt."

Ian came up with this explanation after studying the ground beneath the airship.

Yesterday he thought things were not that simple, but it turned out to be true today.

Really unhappy retribution.

"Will there really be reinforcements in a place like this?"

Ian glanced at the sky above his head and sighed.

They are now in the heart of the Blight Scar, but fortunately the Harmony is still working.

Like a contaminated power stone, it will first scare away weaker beasts before attracting powerful beasts.

The Harmonizer's soul shield creates a "non-red zone" visible to the naked eye.

As a result, this area was considered by the strange beasts to be a powerful "eating" creature of its kind.

Unless a stronger guy comes to the door, this place will be safe for the time being.

Everyone retreated to the deck and lit their soul lanterns.

Using their respective charging stones.

The soft white light is like a candle in the cold wind, the candlelight swaying weakly.

But it is immortal.

Regarding this, the "apprentice" who was observing in secret was also confused.

He has now become "it".

As the core of the Harmonic Instrument, it is also a strange beast that has completed its transformation and is deciding its own shape. It is very puzzling.

Why hasn't the will of this group of people collapsed until now?

Although it is pervasive, it must have holes.

Not to mention that these lanterns emitting soft white light are full of power that makes it afraid.

Even without a lantern, it couldn't find a chance to invade.

It's not to blame.

Look at the remaining twelve people——

Siara believed in Heine.

The two attendants beside her, Shadow and Ya, unconditionally believed in the attendant, and also believed in Heine to a certain extent.

Renee believed in Siara.

And one of her loyal old ranger guards believed in her equally.

As for Ian.

Not to mention that he had talked with Heine a long time ago, even if he hadn't, after saying goodbye to Gulliver Mountain, and now "reunited" with Teacher Xia, naturally he couldn't believe it anymore.

And the old dwarf himself has a firm belief.

That’s six people.

Who are the rest?
Simon, Megumin, Duoduo, Heine, and two dwarf guards employed by Duoduo.

Although they don't believe in Heine, they believe in Ian and Duoduo.

As a result, this group of people, with Heine as the core, formed a strong network of trust, leaving no opportunity for the strange beasts to take advantage of.

Finally, the body of the "apprentice" was completed.

ta ta ta

The sound of footsteps sounded, and everyone's attention was attracted.

I saw a man with shoulders wider than the double doors but a thin waist and thin legs. He was obviously a man with a Chinese character and a beard, but had small eyes and fair skin. He slowly walked out.

He also has a pair of big feet.

At first glance, it looks like a random combination of parameters from a custom face-squeezing system.

But if you break down the facial features and body features, you will see that every part is excellent.

It's a pity that when combined, each has its own merits.

Megumin: "Oh my god, I can't imagine that someone could make Scrooge's face look like this..."

Teacher Xia: "I'm just telling you why these facial features have such an intense beauty. Does it turn out to be that of the Archmage Scrooge?"

Megumin: "Not just the face, the shoulders are those of Hercules, who is one-eighth of giant blood; the beard is Neal's, who is one-quarter dwarf blood; the Chinese-character face is Helenda's, standard The golden people; the waist and legs belong to Christian, a thin dog. He is a Zanluo and half rat man. As for this Bigfoot..."

Teacher Xia: "This Bigfoot belongs to Grover. This guy has a joke. When he went to negotiate with Shadow Foot, his secret code was 'I'll buy shoes.'"

Duoduo: "It seems that this strange beast has been listening to the radio a lot, and his mind is filled with thoughts about the Archmage of the Six-person Council."

...

Heine understood.

Because of the special nature of this guy, when he pinches himself, he doesn’t embody everyone’s fear.

But his own ideal.

He dreams of becoming a master.

And the masters he recognized were the mages of the six-person council - he excluded the women among them, and selected a few former great mages to create a six-in-one body for himself.

"Hello, my guests."

He stopped and greeted everyone in an elegant tone.

"You can call me Archmage."

"Archmage?" Renee snorted coldly: "You don't even have a name, do you?"

"I don't need a name."

The apprentice who became the Archmage said proudly: "Soon, I will be the only Archmage left in the world, so I don't need a name."

Snapped

He snapped his fingers.

When everyone was facing a formidable enemy, white light flashed, and two fully armed figures appeared on his left and right.

It was the two fifth-level battle mages.

Everything seemed normal to them, except that there was no sparkle in their eyes.

"They wore the best equipment and stood guard in the room. Unfortunately, no matter how powerful the equipment is, they can't arm their fragile hearts. "I only used one question to completely shatter their defenses.

"Now, I am also going to ask you similar questions."

The Archmage looked at everyone.

Everyone exchanged glances and were about to take action.

There was a soft sound from the waists of the two battle mages, and then each had a slender, silver-white firearm in their hands.

There was an unabashed magic wave coming from it, at least level five.

Teacher Xia was shocked: "Holy crap, BUG gun?"

He quickly tugged at Heine's clothes to remind him to be careful.

"calm!"

Heine didn't care about anything else and quickly stopped everyone.

Duoduo was curious: "Why is it called a BUG gun? I remember this is called Belpais II, also called Wild Bee II."

Teacher Xia: "Because it looks like the previous AUG assault rifle, and it starts with B, so it is called BUG. Why do you know about it? Can you also get involved in this business of Velitas?"

Duoduo: "Yes, the two shipyards I bought after the void disaster were converted into military factories, specializing in the production of magic firearms. However, these guns are too expensive and difficult to sell."

"...Yes, it's really hard to sell."

Teacher Xia felt that she was not able to answer the question.

...

At the same time, Heine was still inquiring about the reason.

Teacher Xia: "Although this gun can only fire once, once it is fired, at least one person present will die. Even the chain of forgiveness cannot block the energy beam, so I advise you to be cautious."

Heine was stunned: "So powerful?"

Teacher Xia: "Of course there is a price for this. It is already accumulating energy. This is a method of scrapping weapons, not a normal state."

I see……

Heine somewhat understood what the other party wanted to do.

It couldn't bear to kill everyone so quickly, or start a conflict.

If I guessed correctly before, it draws power from those whose minds have been disturbed, which results in their "experience being greatly reduced".

It now behaves like it usually lets players kill monsters instead of doing it themselves.

No one can resist experience.

...

Seeing Heine calling everyone to stop, a trace of anger flashed in the Archmage's eyes.

Not angry at this behavior, but angry at giving Heine another chance to shine.

It suddenly had a dark thought and said to Heine:
"You, choose two people to die, so that both of you can survive."

Heine raised his eyebrows slightly: "What did you say?"

"Yes, I said so."

Heine: "You're talking nonsense, you have to be sincere, right? Otherwise, how do I know you're not encouraging us to kill each other?"

The archmage grinned and mocked: "You have no conditions to negotiate."

Heine sneered: "Do you really think we don't dare to fight with you?"

As soon as he said this, everyone who had been held down just now was ready to go.

The muscles on the Archmage's face squirmed strangely a few times, as if suppressing his anger, his expression changed abruptly.

"it is good."

It grinned again, as if it was flexing the muscles on its face.

Then he snapped his fingers and everyone shook slightly.

It turned out that the airship was lifted up by the creeping vines on the ground and moved out.

Despite the red mist surrounding it, the sky above was still distorted.

But everyone can still feel that they are gradually moving away from the core area.

After some distance, the airship stopped again.

"Now it's your choice." The Archmage said, "This is my greatest sincerity."

Heine nodded without hesitation and pointed directly at Megumin and Duoduo.

"Die them both."

"What??"

"why me?"

Naga and Red, two show-god-possessed guys, immediately start acting.

They were laughing so hard behind their backs, but their faces showed expressions of anger and despair.

Even others can't bear it.

However, the Archmage was so confused that his facial features were distorted.

why?
Why can't I feel any real despair?

These two abandoned living people are as indifferent as dead people, and the expressions on their faces are even more fake than that...

Are they also controlled by strange beasts?
The archmage watched with confused thoughts as the two men numbly walked out of the crowd and walked towards him.

It was about to check on the two of them when it suddenly saw the guy named "Naga" smiling strangely at it.

not good!

Before it could react, the two pounced on the mages on both sides, one on the left and the other on the right.

Boom boom!

After two buzzing sounds like fire, Naga and Red's pierced bodies fell softly.

The fully charged BUG assault rifle has only the power of one shot, and has lost its deterrence since then.

As for Megumin and Duoduo, they were instilled with enough experience by Heine the second before they were about to die. Their spiritual connection has been separated from their bodies, and they have to accept the trial of promotion to the fifth level.

At the same moment, Heine's voice followed closely:

"Do it!"
