A huge magic array combination is in operation, countless corpses are lying on the sub-array beside the magic array, a steady stream of skeleton soldiers step onto the magic array, the white bones of the skeleton soldiers are constantly decaying, and it is unknown how many skeleton soldiers have sacrificed in the entire sub-array, and several centimeters of ashes have formed on the ground.

Around the main formation, a figure covered in a black robe slowly opened his eyes, stretched out his dry hands like chicken claws, and grasped the crystal ball on the ground.

"A little mouse actually came, and it came from the direction of the San Lorenzo gathering point?"

"This mark? Are those bastards too incompetent, or is this rat too powerful to handle?"

"You all sensed it, too!"

As the black-robed man, who seemed to have the highest status, spoke, the subordinates who were kneeling on the ground around him raised their heads.

The subordinates kneeling on the ground looked at each other, silent as a cicada, not daring to make a sound at all.

The man in black robe said in a serious tone: "I'm asking you a question!!!"

"Elder... Elder... I have sensed it. I will handle this matter as soon as possible!"

The black-robed man's kneeling subordinates cursed in their hearts, don't let her find out who lost the chain, they have quietly caused trouble for her. This old woman has gone crazy, and all those who interfere with the ceremony will suffer.

The black-robed man said calmly, "Jillian, I remember you told me this before. Make sure all gathering points are fully equipped with the Undead Resurrection Ceremony!"

Gillian opened her mouth to defend herself, "Elder, some towns are experimental subjects of other elders. I have already informed them and asked them to cooperate with our actions. I can guarantee that all the gathering points we are responsible for will be slaughtered."

The black-robed man said angrily: "I don't care what you do, just kill everyone who approaches, or I will throw you into the magic circle as a sacrifice next time!"

Gillian knelt on the ground and didn't dare to look up. She knew that the elder would keep his word, so she replied with a trembling voice, "Understood!"

"I'll give you two people at most, go kill the one approaching!"

The man in black robe didn't look happy. She never expected that this group of good-for-nothings who could do nothing but cause trouble would be such a waste. How could she believe the empty promises made by these good-for-nothings?

Most of the black fog creatures were transferred to attack the holy city area, while a small number of black fog creatures remained in the black fog area outside the city, which was far away.

Apart from those who were responsible for maintaining the operation of the magic circle, she could only spare three people at most.

"No matter what, as long as these idiots can hold out for another seven days, it will be fine!"

"It's almost there, it's almost there, we'll succeed!"

"If all else fails, sacrifice all this trash."

The man in black robe looked at the center of the magic circle, a rare hint of tenderness flashed in his eyes. Hundreds of years of planning had been for this moment.

After receiving the order, Jillian quickly took her people to carry out the mission. The men in black robes were too scary. She was the oldest elder, and Jillian just wanted to have a good fight with those bastards who had agreed to cooperate with her.

San Lorenzo, city walls.

Lin Chen, who had just come down from the city wall, had no idea that his infiltration, which he thought was flawless, had been exposed to many people. He stood out like a firefly in the dark.

One of the masterminds behind San Lorenzo has already bared his fangs at him, but Lin Chen just thinks that the posture he just landed is extremely handsome.

Lin Chen walked towards the nearest area after landing.

This is a narrow and crowded area with narrow streets, full of garbage and sewage, and dilapidated and crowded houses. In these places, the buildings are often made of broken bricks and rusted metal, with dim lights hanging. The air is filled with various odors, sometimes rotting food, sometimes a mixture of domestic sewage and garbage.

The streets were littered with human corpses, and the various rotten smells made Lin Chen frown.

“Is this the slum of San Lorenzo?”

When a town develops to a certain size, classes will inevitably emerge. Although San Lorenzo is the focus of the Church of Hope, it obviously cannot escape this rule.

The entire San Lorenzo is divided into three structures: inner city | outer city | slums.

The inner city is the essence of San Lorenzo. It has branches of the Church of Hope, many branches of the Chamber of Commerce, luxurious residences... All the beauty of the holy city area and the gathering point of the outside world is here. The most important thing is that the garrison of 10000 elite warriors is in the inner city.

The outer city is where civilians, people with certain skills and a fixed income live.

In the slums, people who come to San Lorenzo from the gathering points to pursue their dreams mainly undertake the worst and most tiring jobs.

"Sure enough, the lord of the holy city still needs voluntary donations of cattle and horses."

Lin Chen sighed with emotion. He believed that the original intention of the Church of Hope was really for the people, but the dragon slayer will eventually become a dragon, and the gathering points opened up have actually become consumables.

For example, in Andariel, there was only one nun, Elisa, who volunteered to guard the entire gathering point, and later Tina came.

If San Lorenzo had paid more attention to the gathering points, the outrageous incident of all the gathering points being infiltrated would not have happened.

"Wait? That's!"

The dark blue soul fire, the sharp bone sword, and the complete armor.

Lin Chen felt that he was being targeted.

He looked with a serious expression at the sturdy figure walking out from the house on the street.

Skill 5: Charged Slash, accumulates the power of soul fire, and the power of the next attack is increased by 20%.

Lin Chen's pupils contracted as he looked at the [Skeleton Soldiers] walking out of the dilapidated houses in the slums.

"I finally understand what the people behind the scenes are doing!"

Lin Chen stared at the status description in the information column of the skeleton soldier in front of him - [Soul Fire continues to be damaged].

Normally, the attributes of the skeleton soldiers resurrected by the undead resurrection ritual are generally very low, while the attributes of the skeleton soldier in the slums are about to reach the threshold of level 1.

Lin Chen affirmed: "This must be because it is absorbing the soul fire of its own kind and someone is nurturing it!"

The entire San Lorenzo was arranged into a nurturing magic circle. As long as a skeleton soldier stepped into it, the soul fire would be nurtured, and by absorbing the power of other skeleton soldiers, it could cultivate a skeleton soldier close to level 1. If the magic circle was good enough and there were enough skeleton soldiers, it would not be impossible to cultivate level 1 [Skeleton Soldiers], [Skeleton Warriors]...

If it were just that, Lin Chen would only think that the person behind the scenes was cultivating his undead plague. After all, the power of the undead sea composed of newborn skeleton soldiers and the undead sea composed of skeleton soldiers close to level 1 or even breaking through level 1 are completely different.

In the former case, Lin Chen could easily kill seven in and seven out, but in the latter case, Lin Chen would be wiped out as soon as he entered the field.

However, the state of [Soul Fire Continuing to Be Damaged] obviously does not conform to the logic of the person behind the scenes to train skeleton soldiers.

If someone doesn't know much about the Necromancer, they might think that there is something wrong with the magic circle. It is obvious that the Necromancer is not very skilled and can't even make a magic circle.

However, as a player who has received compulsory education on the Blue Water Star, Lin Chen also has some understanding of undead spells.

Soul fire is the core origin of the undead. When the soul fire is extinguished, it means the death of the undead.

Generally speaking, one of the prerequisites for undead creatures to advance is that their soul fire reaches a certain level, and the easiest way to increase soul fire is to absorb the soul fire of other undead creatures.

The soul fire continues to be damaged, which means that this [Skeleton Soldier] is just a raised sacrifice, and the soul fire of all the cultivated [Skeleton Soldiers] have been taken away by the person behind the scenes by some means.

"And under what circumstances would a large amount of soul fire be needed?"

Lin Chen murmured, "The advancement of undead creatures and the resurrection of high-level undead are the most common situations."

From the information obtained from the [Skeleton Soldier] in front of him, Lin Chen could confirm that the entire San Lorenzo was covered with multiple formations.

"The first formation is a ritual of resurrecting the dead that covers the entire city. The dead people are used as sacrifices and resurrected as [Skeleton Soldiers]."

"The second formation is mainly responsible for nourishing the soul fire of the [Skeleton Soldiers]."

"The third formation is mainly responsible for extracting the soul fire of the Skeleton Soldiers that have been nurtured."

"The fourth formation is also the most core formation, responsible for using the extracted soul fire to perform the ritual."

"Although I don't know whether you want to advance or revive high-level undead."

Lin Chen looked at the inner city area of ​​San Lorenzo from afar and sneered: "I am not a native of the Black Mist World. You shouldn't let me enter San Lorenzo!"

Since the attribute value of this skeleton soldier can still be maintained above 30 points, Lin Chen can conclude that the ceremony is only in the third stage and it will take at least 3-4 days to complete.

It is impossible for the people behind the scenes, who preside over such a large ceremony, to leave the ceremony site at will.

To be honest, Lin Chen was already quite surprised to encounter an enemy in the Apprentice World that could deploy a quadruple combination formation on a large scale.

"Compared to the undead resurrection ritual arranged at the gathering point, the level of the formation is completely different. It is impossible that they were made by the same person. It should have been arranged by an apprentice or a subordinate."

[Hint: You killed the Skeleton Soldier]

[Hint: You got a treasure chest (green)]

Lin Chen drew out the Qinghong Sword and killed the [Skeleton Soldier] that attacked him. The strength of this [Skeleton Soldier] decreased, but its value did not decrease. Lin Chen liked to kill this kind of monster the most.

Lin Chen pondered, "At present, the enemy is in the open and we are in the dark. The advantage is in my hands. The most urgent thing is to find a place to rest first."

Lin Chen, who had seen through the plan of the person behind the scenes, was not in a hurry. The ceremony still had a long time to go, which was enough for Lin Chen to restore his energy to full.

As for whether killing a Skeleton Soldier would attract the attention of the people behind the scenes? Lin Chen said that it would not be a big deal if only one was killed. It was already a huge expense to set up a quadruple magic array in the entire San Lorenzo. If a magic array to monitor the entire city was added, it would be impossible!

--------

San Lorenzo, outer city.

Lin Chen walked silently on the street. After his investigation, he found that everyone in the city had died.

The bones in the corpses on the roadside have disappeared, proving that they have been successfully transformed into [Skeleton Soldiers]. The only evidence of the existence of [Skeleton Soldiers] is their ashes that have dissipated in the wind.

Lin Chen sighed: "If you are not as strong as others, your life and death cannot be controlled by yourself."

This is Lin Chen’s fourth game world. It is the first time that Lin Chen fights against the evil camp mentioned in the school textbooks. The Necromancers use many gathering points and nearly one million people in San Lorenzo to announce their existence to Lin Chen.

Lin Chen recalled what his teacher taught him at school: "The Necromancer is a widely spread inheritance in all the worlds. Flesh, bones, and souls are all things that Necromancers desire. Most Necromancers will embark on the path of slaughtering the world."

"Unlike other countries, in Dragon Country, citizens are completely prohibited from embarking on the path of necromancers. Therefore, if you don't want to be supervised by the country, it is best not to choose to become a necromancer."

Humans know that ghosts are terrifying, and ghosts know that human hearts are vicious. What is the difference between humans who have fallen into the evil camp and demons?

Lin Chen looked coldly at the slaughtered San Lorenzo. He recalled the demonic massacre he encountered when he just crossed over. Without any strength, he could only hide in the smelly garbage dump and pray for the favor of fate.

After Lin Chen went to school and learned a little about demons, he knew that garbage dumps were meaningless to top killers like demons. Even the weakest little demons could find Lin Chen through life perception. Lin Chen was able to survive because he was at the back of the demons and luckily held on until the arrival of reinforcements.

"Whether I'm a necromancer or a demon, I'm no longer the person who prays for the favor of fate!"

Chapter 123 Ambush

"I'm curious. Apart from killing that Skeleton Soldier at the beginning, I shouldn't have revealed my whereabouts."

"How did you find me?"

Lin Chen, who was sneaking in the shadows of the street, stopped, stood with his hands behind his back facing the empty darkness in front of him, and talked to himself.

As soon as Lin Chen finished speaking, several figures walked out slowly from the street corners in front and behind.

Da da da...

Before he knew it, Lin Chen had been surrounded.

There are three men in black robes blocking the way ahead, and a [Skeleton Warrior] holding a big sword blocking the retreat from behind.

The black-robed person at the head was a beautiful woman with an extremely good appearance. Her graceful curves could not be concealed even by the black robe.

She chuckled and said, "It seems that he does have some skills. No wonder he can come to San Lorenzo!"

Listening to the woman's clear and pleasant voice, Lin Chen asked, "Are you a nun too?"

Gillian recalled, smiling, "Of course, I was once the patron nun of San Lorenzo, and was loved by countless people."

Lin Chen said calmly: "So you turned the people who trusted you into skeleton soldiers with your own hands! Is this your protection?"

"Giggle!"
