Necromancer: Becoming a God from a Lord

Reiner ran wildly in the forest of Jackdaw Ridge with Harvey on his back.

"Sir, is the engine oil really better than animal fat?" Reiner could still speak steadily even during the high-speed running.

Every step he took, the violent tremors he had after landing made Harvey, who was lying on his back, feel that his bones were about to fall apart.

"Of course, in addition to the machine... oil, there is also... shock absorption... and... you need to match it!"

Harvey felt that not only his bones were about to fall apart, but he could also make the same pause rhythm as Reiner's pace.

"What is shock absorption? Ah, it's coming soon, sir, look!"

Reiner stopped in place, and the alloy foot plowed a deep gully on the soil.

The strong inertia almost sprayed Harvey with breakfast.

Harvey slid down from his back with a limp body, closed his eyes and relaxed for a few minutes before he had the energy to start observing the surroundings.

The dark green dense forest occupies most of the vision.

The scenery on the northern slope of Jackdaw Ridge is different from the bright and bright light green of the small town in the south. It is deep and thick green, and there is no end at first glance. Even the skylight above is completely covered by towering vegetation.

"We won't deviate from the route, right?" Reiner looked around on tiptoe.

Harvey was not in a hurry to cast the spell and reconnaissance eye to confirm, because he had discovered the obvious mark left by the hunter.

"Pearce has been here, look at that tree." Harvey pointed to a thick trunk, with a red cloth strip tied crookedly, and the bark was also engraved with the agreed simple symbols.

"Well, Pierce is so brave. He set out one day earlier than us and has been here."

"I want to bring five alchemy beasts with me. I'm more courageous than him." Harvey complained silently. "Go to the temporary camp marked in the Pierce mark first, we need to rest."

Lenaliso squatted in his lunge, waiting for Harvey to climb onto his shoulders, but was ruthlessly rejected.

"Thank you, let me go for a while, Reiner, I'm about to vomit."

The camp location marked by the Hunter Mark is not far away.

Harvey also admired Pierce's wild ability. Although they set out all day in advance, they did not have the perverted alchemy body like Reiner. With the physical strength and speed of ordinary people, they could cross the steep mountains so quickly and quickly. I went down to the forest at the foot of the mountain and had not lost my way.

I'm afraid he can still take time to detect the terrain and draw a simple map while he is marching.

What is professional? This is professional!

...

Pierce arrived at the arranged camp in advance, located upstream of a mountain stream, on the leeward of a huge rock.

On the flat and clean rocks, a small bonfire rose, and a plucked-up pheasant roasted with golden oil.

Two thick trees next to each other set up a huge "bird's nest" off the ground at a height of half a person.

The nest is covered with soft and dry moss and pine branches, and a canopy cloth is supported above it.

This is a specialty for hunters. Sleeping in the "Bird's Nest" tent away from the ground at night can not only effectively avoid poisonous insects, snakes and ants, but also defend against ordinary small wild beasts.

"Sir, Reiner! You guys finally arrived, I'm still worried that you will deviate from the route!"

Pierce squatted beside the fire, holding a piece of hard rye bread, slicing it into thin slices with a knife, and applying the grease dripping from the pheasant.

"Sir, come and try my skills!" The hunter handed over the slices of bread soaked in oil like a treasure, looked at Reiner standing beside him, and was stunned.

"Lyner, you taste it too... Uh, is your rechargeable magic stone enough? Have you brought enough before going out?"

Reiner squatted down distractedly and took out the magic stone from his small bag on his waist to replace it. "Of course, I won't be hungry and thirsty, just take good care of the adults."

"Are you sure where that remains?" Harvey swallowed two slices of greasy bread and said seriously.

Pierce hesitated, "You told me not to get close rashly. I watched from a distance on a higher hillside."

"It's true that a deep pit appeared, that...that black tower seemed to have fallen."

Harvey nodded, "Let Reiner control the alchemy beast to reconnaise tomorrow in case of an accident."

He turned his head and reminded Reiner, "You can't be reckless. This is likely to be a ruin left by ancient mages, and it is very dangerous."

"The evil orcs have all evacuated from the north slope to the wasteland, leaving many traces along the way." Pierce added quickly.

According to Pierce and Reiner's past experience, the evil orcs went south to rob in winter.

Harvey felt this winter was very unusual.

What exactly drove them away from the warm south and back to the cold and food-deprived northern wasteland?

Could it be that they really had to use their own strength to wipe out several small outposts, which made them retreat?

...

The night of tossing and turning passed quickly, and Harvey didn't have a good rest.

He had almost no experience of spending the night in the wild. Even if the hunter and Reiner were on duty in the middle of the night, ten tarantula alchemy beasts were guarding the camp.

It still makes it difficult for him to fall asleep peacefully.

There is no mistake, one, one, one, one, one, one, one, one 619, one book, one, one, one, one, one, one, a book!

"Let's go and let the alchemy beasts reconnaissance in front."

I hope that the existence of the suspected ruins of the ancient wizard can give him some extra gains, or the reason for the evacuation of the evil orcs may be found.

The three of them searched along the marks left by the hunter yesterday.

After walking for more than two hours, they came to the edge of the ruins they found when they looked out from the top of the mountain.

The dense green forest gradually became sparse, and the low vegetation turned slightly black and fell to the ground with dry leaves.

Under the cover of layers of rotten branches, Harvey saw a long section of gray-white brick and stone base, hidden in the dense dead branches and vines.

Is this the outer wall of the wizard tower?

Circling around these broken and intermittent brick and stone bases, they carefully observed and found nothing abnormal.

Harvey decided to enter the ruins to explore.

The entire ruins were not large. After walking a few hundred meters deep, the three of them came to the pit.

After scattering the alchemy beasts around to guard, Harvey carefully stood on the edge of the deep pit and looked down.

"Do you want to release the reconnaissance eye? Sir." Reiner asked in a low voice.

Harvey shook his head and motioned them to look down.

The pit was not very deep, but the Mage Tower itself was built of a dark unknown stone mine.

After it fell in, the entire pit was filled with black brick and stone fragments, and the huge black slabs that broke apart almost filled the bottom of the pit.

The edges of the pit were neat and it did not look like the collapse caused by the earthquake.

It was very likely that the ancient mage had set up some destructive trigger trap device in the ruins. Once it was invaded or activated, it would immediately trigger the collapse and self-destruction of the Mage Tower.

Harvey felt a little painful.

If there were any treasures or precious spell books left by the ancient mage in the tower, it would be difficult to preserve them intact.

"Reiner, use the command to let the two wolf spiders climb down and see if there are any remaining spell traps that have not been activated."

"Pierce, find an observation point on a high place and be alert to the surroundings."

Harvey chanted a spell, activated the reconnaissance eye, and released it towards the bottom of the pit.

Since we are here, we must find ways to plunder.

Otherwise, it would be in vain, and Harvey will not suffer such a loss.
