This Lich Needs More Money

Chapter 377 The Githyanki Trap

There was no news about my father-in-law just now, and then the Githyanki army came. Doesn’t this mean that something happened to my father-in-law?

 Even though Gareth and Amber were very happy when they were searching, they were still very concerned about the safety of their father-in-law. This was considered a love affair.

 Cang Gu was even more panicked, thinking only of his father.

Gareth did not hesitate, came to Cang Gu and said: "Don't worry, we will kill these toads first, and then slowly interrogate your father's whereabouts."

Gareth said to Amberxiu again: "Brother, I leave the matter of reading the memory to you."

Amberxiu replied naturally: "Don't worry, it's a small problem."

As long as he can obtain the complete soul of a Githyanki, Umbershoe can take their memories apart and examine them piece by piece at any time.

Gareth nodded, and then took Cang Gu to leave.

 But just when Amberxiu saw Gareth riding the bone dragon and rushing into the sky, a bad premonition emerged.

 “Not good! Come back quickly!”

Amberxiu tried to call out loudly, but unfortunately, the unknown about her father's life and death made Miss Bone Dragon very anxious, and she had already reached high altitude in this flight.

 Ai Ge said strangely: "What's wrong?"

"What a reckless man!" Amberxiu said helplessly, "I have a feeling they will suffer a loss."

"This..." Ai Ge just wanted to say that Gareth could not suffer a loss, but he immediately remembered Amber Xiu's identity. Could the premonition of a legendary prophetic mage be wrong?

 “Is it too late to help now?” Ai Ge asked: “Do you want to ask the president for help?!”

Amber Xiu was stunned for a moment. How could Ai Ge invite the mysterious President Dong? Or do you want to do another Mourning Poets Society expedition?

However, Amberxiu quickly shook his head and said: "It doesn't have to be so troublesome. It shouldn't be a big deal. It just makes them suffer a little. Let's go, we have to hurry up. Next is our home court."

 Ai Ge asked strangely: “Where to go?”

“Go to the real center of this dragon tomb. We need to control this dragon tomb to deal with these Githyanki people. We can’t let me, a mage, fly up and face them face to face.”

 Ai Ge said even more unexpectedly: "Can you control this dragon tomb?"

"If the master is here, that would be impossible, but now that the master is not at home, he still lets me in. How can this stop me as a professional thief? You may not believe it, but I picked locks when I was an adventurer. He is more skilled than a thief in breaking down traps, especially magic traps.”

Amberxiu strode towards a certain direction of the Dragon Tomb. The dice of fate that no one could see continued to rotate to open a path for him. To others, a smooth road appeared directly at Amberxiu's feet, just like him. It's like you already control this place.

 Aige was amazed, and followed Amberxiu with Melina.

Just as Umbershoe was advancing towards the true core of the Dragon Tomb, Gareth had already rode his wife in front of the Githyanki army.

The number of people in this army has always been too large. At a glance, there are only two or three thousand people, but they are obviously elite. They found a bunch of Isi stingrays from nowhere, and they tamed this huge deep-sea creature into mounts. The Githyanki turned into stingray knights, constantly swimming in the sea outside Dragon Island.

In the sky are ten red dragons, and each one has several Githyanki dragon riders on its back.

Gareth originally wanted to ask his father-in-law about his whereabouts and confirm the purpose of these Githyanki people, but it turned out that they didn’t tell you any rules at all, and they just threw a bunch of spells at Gareth when he showed up.

Gareth was also angry. He had let these toads go last time, but now they jumped out to disgust him.

As she reached out and patted Cang Gu's neck, Miss Bone Dragon understood what Gareth meant and used her hiding ability.

It was still dark when Canggu and Gareth turned into an invisible shadow and flew towards the red dragons in the sky.

As long as they get within forty meters, Gareth can throw out his black flame sword and cut these red dragons in half. No dragon scales or magic shields can stop them.

 Many years ago, there was nothing in this world that could block Gareth's sword.

With an imperceptible shadow and an unstoppable sword, this was how Gareth fought his way through dozens of astral red dragons, killing them all, even to the point where the Githyanki were frightened.

What just made Gareth dumbfounded was that when they escaped into the shadows and started charging, the red dragons fled in all directions.

This is not pretending, but running away with all his strength, without any hesitation. Even the Githyanki swimming on the sea control the rays to sink to the bottom of the sea. They don’t know how long they can hold their breath. Anyway, if they sink, they won’t come out.

What makes Gareth even more speechless is that the red dragons flying in the sky are also equipped with a series of auxiliary spells such as acceleration, flight, feather falling, etc., which fly far faster than Cang Gu.

Although Miss Bone Dragon can hide her figure, this does not increase her flying speed.

What is wrong with these Githyanki people? Aren't you here to cause trouble? Why did you just run away?

Just when Gareth was confused, the dragon knights on the red dragons began to sing loudly.

Long-term chanting and casting of spells are usually very powerful spells. Gareth is not a mage, and neither is Miss Bone Dragon. She can only feel that there is a huge amount of magic brewing.

 At this time, Gareth made a very wrong decision. He chased the red dragon that was flying the slowest. Although most red dragons fly at similar speeds, there are always individual differences. This dragon has poor physical fitness and its flying speed is a little slower.

But just a little bit, Gareth thought that he might be able to catch up if he chased him. After all, these red dragons didn't know where he was, so they might take a breath while flying, and maybe they would be caught up. This is Gareth's subconscious reaction. When fighting, he should focus on the weakest place and attack. This is the most efficient method.

But just as Gareth sped up to catch up with the red dragon, just after flying a hundred meters away, Miss Canggu said doubtfully: "Gareth, there seems to be something in front of you. I just encountered it."

Canggu's hiding is only to block perception and hide the body. Unlike her father, she can directly travel to another plane to escape.

 Hence, if something hits something in the air, the bones will be touched.

When she was flying forward just now, she felt as if she had touched something, but it was so slight that it seemed to pass by in a flash, and she had no idea what it was.

When Gareth heard this, he felt something was wrong, and immediately said to Canggu: "If there is a problem, let's turn around!"

 Cang Gu also felt something was wrong, and was about to turn her head and fly towards the sea, but she immediately felt something hitting her, which was very similar to the previous feeling, but this time the force was much greater.

 Not only Canggu, but also Gareth could sense it.

 “Spider silk?! Spider web magic?”

Gareth was stunned. There were some sticky, invisible threads on his body.

This feeling is obviously a spider web technique, but why can't even the senses of the undead detect it?

 The undead do not see with their eyes, but use their souls to perceive everything. Even transparent things can show their shape in the perception of the undead.

 But these cobwebs completely eluded the perception of the undead, and no one knew what was going on.

 What made Gareth even more speechless was that he couldn't even see who was casting the spider web spell, and a large, sticky, invisible cobweb soon appeared on his body.

At this time, Gareth could see clearly that it was the dragon knights flying in the air who were constantly casting spider web spells behind them.

 They don’t need to know where Gareth is, they just need to wait for him to rush up.

After being touched by the spider web spell for the first time, the caster had roughly sensed the position of Cang Gu, and then countless spider web spells flew towards Gareth's position from all directions.

 The hit rate is not high, but when the number is large enough, the hit rate is not a problem.

Gareth and Canggu are both wrapped up tightly. This thing cannot be offset by magic resistance, because the spider web created is an entity, and the stickiness is not a pure magic effect.

Hidden escape failed. Canggu and Gareth were tied into a ball by the spider web. They could no longer fly at all and began to fall toward the sea.

But it’s not a big problem. Purple-black flames ignited on Gareth’s body and began to burn the invisible spider webs to ashes. Give him a few more seconds to break free.

 It's a pity that this battle is over in just a few seconds.

Countless spells fell on Gareth, blasting his body into flashes of light. But the Githyanki seem to be very smart and do not use spells that can help break the cobwebs, such as charm, petrification, banishment, slowness and other control spells.

The magic equipment on Gareth's body began to be activated one by one, and all the magic equipment that blocked spells, had immunity effects... and so on were all consumed.

At this time, a purple-red magical light fell on Gareth, ignoring the magic armor on Gareth's body, and directly turned him into a pink shadow.

 The banishment spell has no damage effect, but can banish a target to another world.

 During the duration of the spell, the target does not exist in the current plane, and neither party can have any effect.

The effect of the banishment spell is very strong, but it is generally difficult to be effective for strong people like Gareth. The stronger the individual's sense of existence, the greater the impact on the entire world. It is obvious to banish such a character to another plane. It's very difficult.

 But it’s really hard to handle the large amount. How many of these control spells have been thrown, and finally there are some that can succeed.

Just as Gareth turned into a shadow that could not move, a Githyanki riding on the back of a red dragon cheered loudly: "Success! Do it!"

The red dragon that had just circled around turned around and rushed towards Cang Gu.

　　From the beginning, the target of these Githyanki was not Gareth. They knew very well how powerful Gareth was and that he was not a powerful enemy that could be killed in a short time. This was an unfair battle from the beginning, and a direct fight wouldn't be enough if the Githyanki came back multiple times.

 So the Githyanki target the Palebone.

They have already found out that Gareth's weak spot is the blue bone. As long as this bone dragon is controlled, Gareth can only kneel down and wait for death.

As soon as they surge up, Miss Bone Dragon, whose invisibility effect has been broken, will have no choice but to be captured.

 But just when they were about to capture Cang Gu, a terrifyingly huge figure appeared in the sky above the Sleeping Island.
