Our family is in decline

Under Lance's leadership, the team rushed through many obstacles, killing the apprentice first and then the mage, fighting against the skeleton spearman, killing the general and the flag bearer, and finally met the mage known as the Lord of the Dead.

The coffins placed here are all outstanding figures of the Hamlet family. Any ordinary skeleton is a sword master. Although it is not important to Lance, everyone knows that it cannot be left alone.

So Alhazred and the Legion pressed forward. As for why they were chosen to come in, it was also very simple. The Legion did not care about the suppression of the dead air, and the scholar was a very important auxiliary.

And the performance was just like this. Lance blocked the skeleton sword master, Alhazred launched the [Hand of the Abyss] to interrupt the Lord of the Dead's spell, and then the Legion approached.

However, just when Lanius swung the blade at the Lord of the Dead, the Lord of the Dead also waved out.

This action lifted the red robe that wrapped its body, revealing not the skeleton as expected, but a mass of flesh, bones, limbs, and organs that were crushed and then glued together again.

As the work of the ancestor of the flesh and blood evil god, it is indeed impossible to escape these. No wonder the figure under the red robe is taller than ordinary people, and there is no telling how much flesh and blood is stuffed inside.

The two necromancers died in the melee before, and Lance didn't even have time to take care of them. Now he can understand why they are "bleeding"...

The bones that stick to the flesh and blood turned into claws to block Lanius's blade, but as a caster, his instinct did not let it continue to fight, but retreated to keep a distance, and the strong death aura was summoning new skeletons.

Lance was quick-eyed and quick-handed and threw the big iron hammer out, and then raised his hand to press down the restless coffin board.

The iron hammer flew out of his hand, and with the help of Lance's terrifying power, it hit the tall and thin body of the Lord of the Dead like a cannonball and dented it directly, causing it to pause for a short time.

Alhazred took the opportunity to perform the [Weakness Spell], and the power of the abyss further weakened its state.

The ten members of the legion also opened bloodthirstiness, and their bodies seemed to be covered with a layer of dark red halo, holding swords and killing.

The Lord of the Dead tried to resist, but his flesh and blood body became a burden to him, and he was hacked to death by random swords in a few strokes.

After the Lord of the Dead fell, Lance seemed to be a little unresponsive for a while.

It was so difficult all the way, but after seeing the Lord of the Dead, he was killed so quickly after just one encounter. Isn't this a bit anticlimactic?

But it makes sense. Its most terrifying ability is to summon skeletons. There are at least millions of skeletons outside, and ordinary people can't see it at all.

And Lance started preparing a few months ago, weakening it bit by bit through multiple actions, and then today came.

Even if you come in, you still have to face those powerful special skeletons. If you can't break through the protection of the skeleton spearman and the general to kill the flag bearer, even the most powerful adventurer will probably be dragged to death by the endless resurrection.

Even if you face the Lord of the Dead, you still need to bear the ability to control the dead energy. If you can't bear it, you will be buried directly.

But after saying so much, it is a fragile mage.

Now the skeletons outside are stopped, and the skeletons inside are killed by Lance as soon as they appear. The evil power it controls is ineffective against the Legion and Lance, and Alhazred is blessed by Lance, so all the means are useless now.

No matter what Lord of the Dead you are, as a spellcaster, the spell is interrupted, and ten powerful warriors are close to you. The result is imaginable, and you will be chopped into meat paste by random swords.

Without the support of fresh physical strength, these wandering corpses will eventually fall down, right?

Lance didn't know this. He only knew that after the Lord of the Dead fell, the coffin lid that he was pressing on did not stop, forcing him to open the coffin lid and punch the thing inside twice to let it rest again.

However, the strong death aura on the field still existed, and the skeletons did not mean to collapse instantly. Fortunately, their status and aggressiveness were greatly reduced, and the fighting outside eased.

"You go to help, leave this to me."

Lance sent them away and came to the corpse of the Lord of the Dead. The red cloth was torn, revealing the festering flesh and blood inside. There was no research value, so he sacrificed it directly.

However, Lance did not expect that the void would be abnormal again after swallowing the corpse. It was not that the Lord of the Dead was resurrected, but that the strong death aura in the environment actually gathered like a whale swallowing, and then disappeared into the void.

This place itself is a large cemetery. Over the years, countless people have been buried in it, otherwise it would not have been chosen as the lair by the Lord of the Dead.

But now, the power that he had cultivated for a long time was drained away in an instant. Lance believed that he could not accomplish such a great power. There are indeed things stronger than him in this world. Awe of mystery is not an empty talk.

But it was not Lance's turn to think too much, because the gift had arrived.

It turned out to be a gray-black dagger with dark red runes on the handle.

It looked simple without too many gorgeous decorations, and could even be called ordinary.

Anyway, Lance was not conspicuous in his hand, but he felt instinctive fear because he felt the threat of death.

[Death Poison], a poison that threatens any life, called - Death.

As long as you are stabbed by this thing, I am afraid that even a demigod will be killed by this poison.

This necromancer was originally a brilliant person, otherwise he would not be called the Lord of the Dead.

After being killed and resurrected by the ancestor, it is not surprising that he realized something after returning from death.

Now with its power and the death breath accumulated in the cemetery, it is reasonable to create such a weapon.

Lance put it away with fear on his face. This is a weapon that can kill gods, and of course it can also kill himself...

Now is not the time to study these things. The corpse disappeared but the sharp metal collar remained. It can be felt that it is an extraordinary prop, but it does not enhance strength, but on the contrary restrains the evil power.

This probably involves the ritual steps of the ancestor to resurrect them. It is the means by which the ancestor suppressed the evil and preserved their wisdom.

The hammer was also picked up because it was an extraordinary equipment. Although it was just a fine equipment and could not be considered a good thing, it was a profit for the garbage man to pick it up, otherwise it would not have been put in Lance's pocket just now.

There were also those scrolls that I had no time to look at carefully, so I could only accept them and then hurriedly leave...

Originally, the skeletons here did not collapse after the death of the Lord of the Dead because of the rich death energy in the environment. Then, Lance's sacrifice just now directly drained the death energy. The skeletons that were still fighting against the guards outside lost their support in an instant, and their bones fell to the ground.

The bones that were as strong as steel seemed to be pale after weathering for many years, and they would be crushed if stepped on casually.

The darkness underground limited the scene, and the people who relied on the buildings on the ground to fight against the skeletons really understood what shock was.

As they entered the building, the obstacles outside were easily torn apart and kept pouring in. If Lance had not deliberately left behind the powerful guards such as Barin, and the artillery to block the door, it would be very likely that they would not be able to defend.

But as they fought, the offensive of the skeletons began to weaken and became fragile, especially under the sun.

Suddenly, as if reaching the limit, the countless skeletons surrounding the building collapsed and fell apart almost at the same time. The spectacular scene was as shocking as a landslide and tsunami.

Even the resurrected corpses will fall; even the dead will die again.

For a moment, everyone was a little dazed, as if they suddenly woke up from a nightmare and were all stunned.

"It must be the Lord who succeeded."

"Great!"

"Woohoo!"

But soon, as the first one reacted, the others also joined in the cheering. The emotional catharsis under the high pressure was the most refreshing. They did not live up to the Lord's trust and successfully held on.

And those below felt similar. They finally made it through. The spear formation formed by the skeleton spearmen was also very stressful for them. At this time, they finally breathed a sigh of relief.

Lance also came out. Looking at the broken bones on the ground, he had a headache. This mess will be dealt with later. Now let's leave this ghost place first.

"Let's go, let's go out first."

The team quickly withdrew. Lance was the last to find the bodies of the two necromancers and sacrificed them, and threw them into the void together with the flag of the skeleton flag bearer.

The gift was also extraordinary. The missing flag was repaired, and a complete blasphemous flag was obtained. Lance looked at the evil breath emanating from it, and it was needless to say what this thing could do.

He could also control corpses, summon skeletons, and cast a necromancy spell. It was not surprising that he could quickly become a necromancer with this flag.

Of course, if ordinary people could withstand the erosion of the evil breath and were not afraid of becoming a member of the undead.

And if they dared to use this, they would probably become an evil force that everyone would shout and fight against.

Anyway, it was just a toy for Lance, and there was not much practical benefit at all.

Walking out, Lance knew that the battle was fierce by looking at the bones spread all over the ground. Many people were injured, and even a few were seriously injured. The extraordinary people did not exceed the limit of flesh and blood, especially this kind of attrition war.

But there were no dead people. After all, there were enough potions, and there was hope as long as they were alive. Not to mention that Lance also left Junia, he couldn't leave a healer.

Give everyone flesh reconstruction treatment, and then all brush the blessing to recover.

Only then did they realize that the equipment on the Legion was full of damage, and the blades were also damaged in the fierce battle.

But they had already become one with the equipment under the effect of the ritual and could recover on their own.

The skeletons had no blood to suck for them, so they could only go back and pick a few death row prisoners to restore them.

Just as a reward for this operation, after all, they had no use for money.

"Alhazred, Bigby, Junia, Jeanne, you come with me."

Lance arranged their evacuation, but left a team behind. If the Legion had not been too seriously damaged and the next enemy was not simple, he would have wanted to take them along.

The same was true for Sarmienti. After playing the finale, the whole person fell into a state of depression. Sure enough, those who engage in art are all crazy.

No one in the team questioned the lord's decision, or wanted to know more. All they could do was to execute orders, and nothing else was considered.

Loyalty!

Leave them to go back on their own. After losing the skeletons, there is nothing to threaten them. The only thing is that Lance is now dealing with that thing.

That's right, since we are already here, we should just stop by and not run around.

Lance did not forget that there was another threat in the ruins, the guy who had defeated Martin's team in the church.

And the team he put together was also very simple. Scholars needed his auxiliary power, and Jeanne and Bigby were to lead them to experience.

As for bringing Junia, it was because he needed someone familiar with the church.

Junia got the inheritance of the saint in the dungeon, and then Lance found out that she was possessed by the body halfway, and directly captured and sacrificed to that guy, but Junia did get something good.

After coming out, in order to digest the power of the inheritance, she spent most of her time immersed in meditation, and her strength also increased rapidly.

Lance couldn't disturb others because of some dispensable things, so it was because of this that he didn't appear in the public eye for a while.

Later, she came to participate in the war to recover the territory, but she was mixed in the army, and there was not much room for her to play in the era of artillery and muskets, which was also a kind of loneliness to a certain extent.

So the main task was to support Lance in the rear to stabilize the situation. Her work direction was to persuade the believers of the church, guide them to distinguish between religion and faith, and return to life.

Of course, she was also the most proactive in exposing the darkness of the church, especially in dealing with the most corrupt and degenerate guys in the church.

She really couldn't stand any "filth". When facing some corrupt clergy, she strongly demanded to be put on the stake and clamored for the Holy Flame to purify them. She was more radical than Lance.

Fortunately, Lance was more conservative and advised her not to do this, but to send them to a sanatorium.

Paracelsus was probably also curious about whether the body structure of the clergy would be special.

When the captured guys heard that they didn't need to barbecue, they directly regarded Lance as the Holy Light sent to save them. That scene was quite funny.

After dealing with those things, she was brought back by Lance. Martin and other church members had a decline in strength, but Lance found that Junia was not affected at all, which might be related to the power she received.

In the battle just now, Junia also showed strength that was not inferior to that of a legend. This guy was born to be chosen by the Holy Light, so it was not surprising that she had such progress.

Lance left her there because she was strong enough and could stabilize the situation when something happened. She was not lacking a healer or output below.

The team moved forward and saw some broken skeletons along the way. Sure enough, the biggest disaster of the ruins had been eliminated.

Without the obstruction of the skeletons, they quickly arrived at their destination, a magnificent building full of historical charm, which was the church of the ruins.

Thanks to [Fate] for the 10,000 reward.
