Chapter 0023 The first battle against the undead in the cemetery

One hour later, news came out.

The two soldiers who returned to report the news were attacked by the enemy halfway. When the bats with flapping their wings swept from the dark tree to behind the soldiers, it was too late for the two to turn back, and two short screams stopped. The two bats lay on the soldiers' bodies and had a full meal, and the black smoke flashed, turning into two vampires wearing black windbreakers and blood-colored dresses. They grabbed the soldiers' bodies and crawled into the mountains and forests and headed straight for a certain place.

The lickers who followed the soldiers did not interfere with the hunting of the two vampires. They did not jump gently among the trees until they returned with their prey. The 15 lickers lurking near the distant stronghold immediately made movement. In addition to leaving one to continue to alert, the other 14 quickly moved towards the direction of the vampire's advance, forming a siege net.

The quick-moving vampire and the same quick-moving licker ran rapidly in the dense forest, with speeds fast but silent, like a ghost.

In a remote cave 3 miles away from the tower of the stronghold, three necromancers were whispering around the bonfire. The same black robe and cap and the same white bone short stick marked the identities of the three.

The necromancer Garda waved his bone staff angrily and cursed: "It's too weak! Unforgivable weakness! Since Novis has sharpened his knife, why can't we let go of our hands and feet? Sneak attacks, sneak attacks, they will only let us attack, and only allow us to lead such a few subordinates, what can we do?"

"Okay, OK, Garda, do you have any objections to the Undead League? Do you have any objections to yours?" Merkel, the Necromancer, rebuked:

"I certainly have no objection to you, but the war is about to begin. Are you still so different?" Garda quickly explained: "Since we have made it difficult to climb Mount Aville to attack Novis, why are we not allowed to bring all our subordinates and only three vampires?"

The necromancer Hurley, who had been silent, sighed: "Because the United Parliament is still evaluating the impact of Nowes' participation in the war. We cannot fight on both sides. We need to warn Northwest of the undead mages, and we cannot stimulate them to join the war desperately. Therefore, the United Parliament has only sent 7 teams, each of which strictly limits the number of high-level undeads, and we are not allowed to leave Mount Aville too far. The United Parliament probably just wants to scare Northwest away!"

Garda lowered his head and said nothing. He and Merkel were only level 4 necromancers, while Hurley was already level 6 necromancers. Everything in this team was mainly mid-level wizard Hurley. When Hurley gave the order, he had to obey unconditionally.

Seeing that the two of them were a little depressed, Hurley had to explain: "Since we have accepted the task of the United Parliament, we can only do it. We don't need to consider it. Let's not discuss it anymore! Let's focus on this stronghold, turn all the Noves soldiers who came to this stronghold into our slaves, and then fight a small-scale battle with them, and time will always be with us. Garda, the two vampires sent out should be back, right? Merkel, prepare your team and attack in a while, leaving all the people who came today."

Merkel nodded: "These corpses have been dealt with. I will wake them up before the attack. The people who came today are very alert. They actually burned all the materials left in the tower in advance, which is a pity for those arrangements."

Garda interrupted, "Remember, there are mages in their team. Please kill him first later, otherwise the material will be lost too much. You have also seen that strange creature in the afternoon. It is definitely not something that should be found in Aville Mountain. It looks like a mutant ghoul! Is there any other necromancers near us?"

As soon as the three of them finished discussing, they sensed the vampire approaching. Hurley stood up and greeted, "Let's go, it's almost time. It's time to get rid of those poor sent-offs!"

After leaving the cave entrance, Merkel went around the woods to the side, and the corpses brought from the stronghold were transformed into zombies and buried here and waiting to wake up. Hurley and Garda stood at the cave entrance while watching the vampire approaching with two corpses while discussing the battle ahead.

Suddenly, Master Hurley sensed something, turned his head and rushed to Merkel who was about to walk to the woods and shouted: "Be careful, come back quickly!"

Before he finished speaking, the dark shadows flashed in the woods in front of Merkel, and several fierce figures jumped into the air in the night, pounced on Merkel who stood in shock.

Merkel staggered backwards and immediately activated the pre-stored spell "Master Armor" on the staff at the fastest speed. Before he could stop, the mage armor shook violently and was about to break. Merkel had no time to chant the spell, and pulled the bone-tooth necklace in his neck and smashed it hard. With a muffled sound, the strong wave of negative energy burst, forming a violent shock wave that washed away the surrounding 10 meters. All the living matter within the range quickly withered under the erosion of negative energy.

It was simply a small death and withering, but unfortunately he was also within the range of erosion. The overly strong negative energy was also a burden to the necromancers. After all, they were just adapting to negative energy, rather than loving negative energy. The mage's shield was broken, and Merkel's soul fire was washed away and trembled. As soon as he stabilized his soul, he saw two bloody mouths bite fiercely. As soon as he saw Merkel screaming in his heart, he lost his life.

Hurley and Garda looked at everything in front of them in shock and angrily. In less than 7 seconds, a companion died in front of them. What was this killing him? By the way, I have seen the ghoul-like creature that appeared in the stronghold in the afternoon, but it was no longer one, but four. They rushed forward and used their fast speed to make Merkel beaten to pieces before he could react.

Garda cursed and planned to command the vampires who had just arrived beside her to attack. Hurley grabbed him and shouted: "Defend all your strength, they are also undead creatures, don't use necromancer spells, there are still some behind!"

Just as the two of them recruited vampires to defend themselves with all their strength and blessed their armor with a storm like a fire, 11 more lickers rushed towards them on the way from the vampire!

Hurley screamed, and the "Netheric Static Technique" was thrown into the rushing lickers team. The lickers were overturned and 6 were overturned one after another. The ones behind either jumped up or scattered, buying time for the two wizards. Garda's "Fireball Technique" fell to the 6 lickers rolling together, and burned a burning flame, instantly blew up one, and severely injured 3 lickers.

The vampire on the heads of the two necromancers turned into human form and rushed up to entangle the four lickers who had just killed Merkel. Both sides were undead creatures, which saved a lot of unnecessary movements to block the parry, all of which were fierce biting and grabbing. At every moment, both sides were creating wounds. The vampire obviously had more flexible movements. Although they were 2-to-4, they still suppressed the lickers and could not move forward.

Since the licker has the support of Li Xun's soul connection, the necromancer's detention technique could not be sustained. Soon, the two lickers were trapped in the siege of 8 lickers. Eight intact lickers were scattered around the mage and took turns to attack, and three severely injured scattered on the periphery to wait for an opportunity. Whenever any wizard wants to cast a spell, a licker will rush straight to his eyes, blocking his sight with his body, and trying to exchange the casualties of one licker for the remaining lickers' full-strength attack.

"Someone commanded them." Hurley first discovered the problem. He had been curating undead creatures all year round. He knew very well that these undead creatures did not have too high IQ. Most of them were still active by instinct. It was impossible to have a clear division of labor and a good discipline like before his eyes.

Garda's shield had already broken, and he barely avoided the two lickers with Hurley's cover, and used the "gauge of life" to force the one who attacked Hurley. He was exhausted and screamed: "Come out your vampire quickly!"

Hurley was speechless. If he could, he would have called it long ago. It would take nearly 5 seconds to chant the mantra if he opened his soul space to summon the undead creatures he carried with him. It depends on the current situation. Garda has no shield. Who can buy him this long 5 seconds? If he can say such words, it seems that Garda has lost his calmness. It would be better to think of a way to break through if he stayed with him.

Time was tight, so I did it when I thought of it. After Hurley shouted "Run apart", he rushed to the direction where the lickers were the least, and did not hesitate to the "fireball ring" in his hand. He used three fireballs to open the way and burst continuously, blowing over the four lickers blocking the way, and rushed out hard. He ran out 10 meters and heard Garda's scream. His heart trembled and slowly stopped. The blocked road in front of him were three lickers who were severely injured at the beginning. Although most of his body was charred, he still stood firmly in front of him.

Hurley shouted in despair: "Who are you? I am a member of the Council of the Undead, you are like..."

Before he could finish speaking, his neck hurt and his head was bitten off by the licker.

Li Xun looked at the battlefield through the soul connection. The lickers were killed, 7 seriously injured and 4 minor injuries, and were still within an acceptable range. He laughed and let the injured 7 lickers hunt freely. The 4 lickers searched the necromancer's body and cave and collected all the spoils they could take away and brought them back. Then he rubbed his forehead and slowly retracted his consciousness.

The first time I used the soul connection to direct the battle directly, it felt very fresh and strange, but the burden was also quite large. Especially when using the soul connection to help the licker resist the "necrotic detention technique", my head was a little swelling and painful. When there were more and more subordinate creatures, such precise command of the battle required strong spiritual support. It seemed that the attribute points at the next level must be pointed to the spirit.
