Li Wei's overreaction frightened the old hag, and she looked at the skull in her hand suspiciously, "Hey, Mr. Li Wei, this skull is no different from the ones on the tribal totem pole except that it is a little more beautiful." She is ugly. His face twitched, and he smiled at Li Wei. "Don't worry, I know how to deal with these things."

The field of vision of the probing technique tells Li Wei that this smile is indeed sincere, but with the old hag's scorched and sharp teeth and blood-red gums, it is still quite terrifying.

"You should be dealing with a lich's head for the first time, dirty swamp crawler." The upper and lower jaws of the skull suddenly opened and closed, and a hoarse and sharp sound came out from inside, as if many gravels were rubbing against rocks It was like the past, and at the same time, two clusters of dark green will-o'-the-wisps appeared in the empty eye sockets.

This turn of events was obviously out of Stiba's imagination, the old hag's grass-like hair stood up in fright, "Damn it, a talking skeleton?" she yelled, almost letting go and dropping the skull.

"This guy only has one head left, what else can he do?" Wolf of the Tooth Tribe said with a smile, his mouth was open, and the two rows of sharp teeth gleamed with a ferocious cold light.

"Stupid reptile, if there is no reminder from this human being, your body will soon be mine. Although it looks very ugly, it's okay, I'm not a picky person." The voice of the skull was full of sarcasm, "Now put Get your claws off my head!"

A cloud of cold blue light appeared on Stiba's free hand, "Don't be so arrogant when you speak, Skull." She threatened angrily, "Don't forget that you are now in the swamp you look down on hands of the natives."

"It's just my body." Skull replied without showing any weakness, "This time our plan failed and we suffered quite a serious loss, but it's nothing. We have enough time and patience to sue the dead. When it comes to prevention, do a similar approach again."

"That's impossible, you can't find another master alchemist who is proficient in dark alchemy." Master Youyue said, and then the bluish-white light of the portal lit up, and a figure in a dirty gray robe appeared on the bone at the foot of the tower.Li Wei and the others turned their heads vigilantly, ready to fight, but the dark alchemist walked towards Li Wei as if he had no hostility.

"Defeat me in the field I am best at, young alchemy genius, this bottle of Angel of Death is yours, and my life is also yours." Master Youyue took out the crystal bottle full of alchemy poison and handed it to him. In the past, when Li Wei stretched out his hand to take it, he retracted it like lightning.

"What do you mean?" Levi asked in a questioning tone. "Could it be that what the dark alchemist said is so worthless?"

"Of course not." Master Youyue's disheveled hair blocked his expression, only his lips seemed to be twisted, "I just want to know what you plan to do with my life."

"The tribal leaders of the aborigines in the swamp will decide your fate, for your actions that harm the interests of the rotten swamp." Li Wei said as he approached Master Youyue, holding the knight sword in his hand with silver flames.

Master Youyue took a step back, raised the crystal bottle in front of him, "That's not acceptable, these rude guys will not give other sentences except death penalty."

"That's right, Siss, based on your crimes, even if you die a hundred times, that's not too much." said the Gala leader of the Greyscale Tribe.

"The Tooth Horde will be the first to tear you apart," Worf added.

"There is also the Cracking Flesh Tribe." Bawu was not to be outdone.

"Did you hear that? This is the judgment of the aborigines." Master Youyue shrugged his shoulders, "Young alchemy genius, you should know that if I want to leave, no one can stop me." He pointed to the teleportation The bluish-white light left by the spell reminded.

"Maybe." Li Wei replied coldly. It would be a different matter if it was a teleportation gate cast by a magician, but if Master Youyue used the method of alchemy teleportation in front of him, Mr. Dish could completely stop him.

Master Youyue didn't hear the indifference in Li Wei's voice, maybe he pretended not to hear it, "My dark alchemy can be ranked in the top three among all the masters of the Alchemy Federation, you know, without you If you try to stop it, Yin Chen's arrival is enough to destroy the entire kingdom to the north."

"The leader of the Griffin tribe, Li Wei, stopped you. This is mentioned in the prophecy of the Queen of the Black Crow, and now the prophecy has come true." Reslin, the marksman of the Rib Tribe, reminded.

"That's right." Master Youyue nodded affirmatively, "So I didn't commit any crimes against you."

"Didn't you commit a crime? In order to stop your evil ritual, the swamp aborigines paid heavy casualties. The tower behind you was built with the bones of the aborigines!" Li Wei's eyes showed sadness. expression.

"My hands have never been stained with the blood of any aborigine." Master Youyue distinguished, and at the same time pointed to the lich's skull held in the hand of the old hag Stiba. "The tribes of the aborigines were broken by them, and they ordered the massacre of people. As for me, I just provide some knowledge of dark alchemy."

"The leader of the Griffin Tribe, Li Wei, kill him." Wolf suggested, and then stuck out his tongue and licked his lips. "I can handle the corpse for you."

"No." The stopping words came from the mouth of the Crow Queen who had been silent all the time, and then the witch in black robes took two steps forward, "The war on the rotting swamp is over, killing him will not bring the dead back to life , but keeping him alive is very useful for Chief Li Wei."

"What use can he be to me?" Li Wei felt very strange. "I don't need an evil dark alchemist to work for me. As for the traditional alchemy knowledge..." He turned his head and stared at the ghost with piercing eyes. Master Yue, although his voice was soft, was full of sarcasm.

"...I shouldn't even need it."

Master Youyue's face was flushed red, and even her messy hair couldn't hide it. Being ridiculed in what she was best at was almost worse than hitting him in the face directly.But the fact that he was defeated in the Void Alchemy Chess just now made it difficult for him to refute. He could only tremble while holding the crystal bottle.

The leaders of the swamp aborigines let out a burst of laughter, Babrupa's high-pitched voice was especially loud among them, only the Crow Queen showed no expression on her face. "Leader Li Wei, I don't know how useful this man is to you, but I can see him standing by your side."

When the Black Crow Queen spoke, her eyes lost focus, and her voice seemed very ethereal, as if some unimaginable existence was making a sound through the mouth of the Black Crow Queen. That feeling was not sacred or solemn, but an indescribable The old age, so old that it seems to come from the ancient itself that is not affected by time.

This appearance made Levi shiver, "Ms. Siegfield, are you okay?"

"Lord Li Wei, please don't disturb the queen, she is prophesying." The leader of Stiba reminded anxiously.

This ghostly look turned out to be a prophecy... Li Wei shrugged his shoulders and took two steps to the side, but the Black Crow Queen's eyes immediately followed her, and the inhuman feeling became even stronger.

"The lord of the griffin soaring in the sky of the kingdom, the golden wings cover the earth, under the wings are twelve bright stars, six are as dark as the eternal night, and six are as bright as the morning sun." Her eyes turned to Master Youyue, let this A master of dark alchemy couldn't help shivering.

"There are you, and there are me."

The leaders of the swamp aborigines shouted in an uproar, "Queen, how could you leave the swamp and abandon us?" Leslin from the Needle Tribe shouted, her purple eyes filled with tears.

"I... didn't abandon you, but you and I returned under the banner of the Griffin." The Queen of the Black Crow replied in that vague and old tone, and then this strange feeling receded like a tide, the Queen The figure in the black robe shook a few times, and fell into the arms of the old hag Stiba who just ran over quickly.

Several aboriginal leaders surrounded them, but Stiba waved them away, "The prophecy consumed a lot of the queen's energy," the old hag explained, "let the queen rest for a while."

"Leader Li Wei of the Griffin Tribe, what are we going to do with this..." Worf lifted up the lich's skull thrown to him by Stiba, "...and this?" His furry paws pointed at Master Youyue.

Li Wei's eyes showed a pensive taste, "How accurate is the Black Crow Queen's prophecy?" He asked all the aboriginal leaders, and the answer was unanimously nodded, "All the queen's prophecies have been fulfilled." Acupuncture tribe Leslin proudly declared, and then emphasized, "There is never a mistake."

"It seems that among the natives of the swamp, there are also wise leaders, not all of them are useless barbarians." Master Youyue praised.

"But how can I trust your...loyalty, or how can I be sure that you won't betray?" Li Wei frowned and looked at Master Youyue, "You know, dark alchemists have always had a bad reputation .”

"Worse than we sue the dead," added the Lich-Skull.

"I can swear, or accept any contract, because I never thought of betrayal, not betraying you, but betraying knowledge." Master Youyue ignored the provocative Lich, but answered Li Wei very seriously. "As long as I have new alchemy knowledge to learn, you can't drive me away."

"As long as there is new alchemy knowledge?" Li Wei sighed, he could see that this dark alchemist spoke sincerity, so he is indeed not an evil enemy, but just a person who is extremely paranoid about alchemy knowledge Scholars only.

This kind of person sometimes causes more damage than those pure villains.At least if the victims didn't get his help, they wouldn't have planned such a terrible disaster that could threaten the entire Northern County.

"In that case, can you accept the bondage of the soul blood oath?" Li Wei said while taking out a small golden sword from his bosom.

"Of course." Master Youyue answered without hesitation, then stretched out his hand to take the dagger, and drew a deep stroke on his palm.

Master Youyue is not a knight, so the procedure of the soul blood oath is extremely short. The two palms face each other, and when the blood is fused with each other, Li Wei and he each utter the oath. The ones who keep it are taught, and the latter swear by their souls to be loyal to Li Wei.A golden-red light then flickered between the palms of the two.

The oath was fulfilled quite in time, because before all the light had faded away, there was a huge noise from a distance. Lacelin, who always boasted that she had the most sensitive hearing, listened attentively, and then showed a surprised expression on her cheeks covered with fine scales. "Attention, there is a group of people approaching rapidly, about fifty in number."

Surprised expressions appeared on the faces of the aboriginal leaders, "Get ready for battle!" Stiba shouted, "Protect the Queen and Lord Li Wei!" Putting up their weapons, they lined up facing the place where the sound came from, protecting Li Wei and the Black Crow Queen behind them.

Leader Worf turned the heavy flail to join the queue, and threw the lich's skull into Master Youyue's arms. The dark alchemist held the skull a little at a loss, bearing the glare of the lich at the closest distance .

"Give me that thing, and then step back." Li Wei walked over with the knight sword in his hand, "...Master Youyue." Although he had formed a blood alliance, the young lord still couldn't call the dark man in front of him. The alchemist is the blood of my blood.

Master Youyue didn't care about this. In fact, as long as he could get new and mysterious alchemy knowledge, he wouldn't care about anything at all.He gave the skull in his hand to Li Wei, thanking himself for getting rid of a trouble, and then walked behind the human wall, where besides the Crow Queen who was in a trance, there was another one holding a small hand nervously. Humpty man with a crossbow looking around.

The dark alchemist paid less attention to the Black Crow Queen than he did to the hand crossbow in Humpty Dumpty's hand. Although the hand crossbow was only the size of a palm, the workmanship looked very delicate, like a work of art , and with a sinister beauty unique to weapons.

"This thing, can't be made by human beings?" Master Youyue squatted beside Humpty Dumpty and asked, the unexpected voice scared Humpty Humpty almost to his feet. "Father God, do you want to kill Master Babrupa?" The short fat man yelled angrily, shaking the crossbow in front of his face, "It's not easy to put arrows on this thing. The crossbow bolts are worth several silver coins, and they are poisoned!" Then he looked at Master Youyue again, "Hey, aren't you an alchemist? Why are you running to the back?"

Master Youyue shrugged his shoulders, "Alchemists are not magicians. I don't know any magic that directly participates in battles except for a few tricks of body protection and escape. And..." He looked back and heard a noisy voice "There are only a few liches in the swamp of decay, all of them died in the backlash of the alchemy ceremony. I don't think there are any decent enemies."

The dark alchemist's guess was indeed correct. Not long after, the figure that broke through the water suddenly appeared in front of everyone.The leaders of the aborigines breathed a sigh of relief, because these people were all riding snakeskin beasts, all of them were bloody and exhausted, but they seemed extremely excited.

"We have won! The undead army suddenly fell into chaos. Except for a few vampires who escaped, the other undead were wiped out!" The Roaring Bear shouted from a long distance away.

Although this was already expected, everyone still cheered. Followed behind Tang Na was also a group of aboriginal tribal leaders, almost everyone was injured, but it is gratifying that they once participated in the meeting hall of the bristle tribe. None of the people in the battle meeting died in battle.

The stinky fish leader of the fish head tribe was very excited, his mouth was full of white foam, "Lee Wei, the leader of the griffin tribe, you really should take a good look! We played tenaciously and brilliantly, never before. Enjoyable battles, whether it is skeletons or zombies, are all cut down like water plants in large swaths. I bet that even the human knights are not so brave."

"Hey, stinky fish, if there is no leader Li Wei and all of us, guess what, would the person who was cut down like a waterweed still be an undead?" Wolf smiled with his white teeth.

Smelly Fish was stunned suddenly, "That's right." He admitted while touching his wet forehead, "It was actually very dangerous just now."

Tang Na jumped off the snakeskin beast's back, and when his feet stepped into the mud, he actually slipped, and his body shook for a while before regaining his balance.Li Wei rushed forward to check his injuries.

The two of them were lightly dressed and did not wear heavy and strong knight armor.Donner was wearing some knight equipment found from the aboriginal tribe, including a slightly worn-out breastplate and an ancient half-face helmet that looked a little funny.The wooden shield was provided by the Sharptooth Tribe. It depicts a gray monster with its head raised to the sky, but now it has no head, and only the part of the shield left is the gauntlet.

Tang Na was covered in blood, but most of it was sticky black rotting blood, and a small part was splashed on him by his killed companions, but Li Wei still found a not-so-deep cut on his arm. There are also traces of being scraped by sharp knives on the cheeks.

"I'm fine, Your Excellency Li Wei, but I'm quite tired, and my fighting spirit is also consumed too much." Tang Na shook his arm a few times, indicating that this was not a serious injury. "It's best to leave your healing skills to others. Although you won this time, the casualties of the natives of the swamp are still very high." His voice was filled with deep emotion, "The fighters of the natives are all good. The front line was on the verge of collapse at the last moment, but no one was a cowardly deserter."

"Where can we escape to? Siss, this is our common homeland." Black Tail, the leader of the Snake Tribe, said with a blink of an eye. "We retreated when we were in the Black Crow Tribe, but now we have nowhere to go. Just fight to the death."

"The leader of the black tail is right." Li Wei said, "Bless the gods, the final victory belongs to us, and belongs to the aborigines of the Rotten Swamp!"

"Belongs to you too, Chief Li Wei of the Griffin Tribe!" Worf was the first to shout, "Leader Li Wei, our forever friend!"

Dozens of voices of different thickness shouted at the same time. This was the unanimous cry of the aboriginal tribes of the Rotten Swamp. Everyone burst into tears and embraced the people next to them. The tribes that had had blood feuds were no exception. The joyful mood infected everyone, and cheers and laughter resounded through the sky.

This is the first time in hundreds of years.
