This might sound unbelievable, but a level-20 Undead creature was a force to be reckoned with in any battle. How could it be so tragically forgotten?
Actually, at the start of the battle, the Humerus Wyrm was rather impressive. Not only did it force an Archmage into a corner with a few ice flames, it also eliminated close to 10 Death Knights.
Unfortunately, Lin Li quickly drank the All-Knowing Potion, and temporarily possessed the strength of the Legendary-realm. Just a Gravity Bind was enough to make the Humerus Wyrm fall from the sky, and make it lose its ability to fly for a long time.
Then, the battle between the peak of the Legendary-realm began.
The pace of this battle could only be described as insane. Even the Archmage Adelo, who was already at the peak of level-17, could not count how many spells these two freaks had cast. In such a fast-changing battle, no matter how powerful the Lich was, it could not spare any attention to give orders to the Humerus Wyrm.
After all, the Humerus Wyrm was only a summoned creature. Without any orders from the Lich, it could only rely on its own instincts to fight.
Having lost its ability to fly, and could only rely on its instincts to fight, the Humerus Wyrm was like a tiger that had its teeth pulled out. Even a level-20 Undead creature was held back by a group of Death Knights.
Thus, there was this absurd result ….
"Ujfalusi, are you interested in this fella?" Lin Li rubbed his nose, turned around, and asked Ujfalusi casually in a relaxed tone, as if he was not asking about a Humerus Wyrm, but a few carrots that had been thrown by the roadside.
Lin Li could not be blamed for being arrogant. The Humerus Wyrm was indeed no different from a few carrots thrown by the roadside. Although the Humerus Wyrm was powerful, it was still summoned by the Lich. When the Lich was alive, it could be a terrifying level-20 Undead creature, but once the Lich was dead, it did not even have the right to continue living in this world. Once the magical wave of the Lich dissipated, the summoning contract would disappear as well. This was no joke. Once the summoning contract disappeared, the luckiest outcome for the Humerus Wyrm would be to return to the place where it was summoned. It might be some dimensional space, or some corner of the abyss. If it was unlucky, its soul fire would be extinguished …
Most importantly, once the Lich died, the Humerus Wyrm would lose its power, and become weak instantly. It would not even be as strong as a Skeletal Warrior until it signed a summoning contract with another Necromancer.
The Humerus Wyrm was like a wallet that had fallen onto the ground. Any Necromancer who was willing to bend down could reach out and pick it up.
If Ujfalusi was interested, Lin Li would be more than happy to let him pick it up.
"Thank you, Master, but …" Unexpectedly, Ujfalusi shook his head. "But there's no need for that …"
"Why?"
"It's like this, Master. I am only one step away from level-19. I will be able to return to my original level in another year …" At this point, Ujfalusi looked at Lin Li hesitantly. "If Master agrees, I would like to create a new body for Crimson."
"Oh …" Lin Li remembered after hearing Ujfalusi's words.
The Crimson that Ujfalusi mentioned was the Humerus Wyrm that was destroyed by the Holy Light in the ruins of Syer Town. According to Ujfalusi, this Humerus Wyrm had inherited an extremely powerful magical crystal of a wyrm, and was even stronger than Ujfalusi in terms of power.
As for creating a new body, it was not difficult at all. After the Holy Light destroyed the Crimson Dragon, the magical crystal of the wyrm fell into Lin Li's hands. As long as Ujfalusi could return to his original level, he could definitely use the wyrm crystal to create a Humerus Wyrm that looked exactly the same.
"No problem. I will give you the wyrm's magical crystal when we get back."
"Thank you, Master."
"Hehe …" Lin Li laughed. He did not feel the pinch from giving away a wyrm's magical crystal. Using a wyrm's magical crystal to exchange for the loyalty of a future Lich was definitely a profitable business. Moreover, Ujfalusi had signed a Soul Contract with him that he could never betray him. What was the difference between him and the Humerus Wyrm that Ujfalusi controlled?
The only thing that gave Lin Li a headache was how to deal with this Humerus Wyrm …
Ujfalusi was the only Necromancer among them. If he was not willing to bow down, no one else had the right to do so.
That was a level-20 Undead creature. Any Necromancer who signed a Summoning Contract with it would be able to increase their combat power to a terrifying level. Lin Li had never thought that something as good as a pie falling from the sky would cause him so much trouble. Was he really going to watch such a huge sum of money go down the drain?
"Norfeller, you …" Lin Li did not give up. He turned around to look at Norfeller, but just as he said that, Lin Li suddenly realized something. "Forget it, pretend I didn't ask …"
Lin Li suddenly remembered that Norfeller had signed a blood oath with him. After signing the blood oath, Norfeller was equivalent to his summoned creature. How could he sign a Summoning Contract with another Undead creature?
The remaining magical wave of the Lich was getting fainter, and the power of the Summoning Contract was also getting weaker. Lin Li could even clearly feel that the Humerus Wyrm was getting weaker at an alarming rate. Perhaps in the next moment, it would disappear from this world …
"Damn it, it's so painful to look at the wallet but not pick it up …"
"Yes, yes, it's so painful …"
Just as Lin Li was having a headache, a voice suddenly rang in his head.
"Damn it, Connoris, you shameless peeping tom. Are you done? How many times have I told you not to peep, not to peep. Do you really want to be thrown into the furnace to change your body?" Lin Li was so angry that he wanted to vomit blood. This bastard Connoris was really getting more and more despicable. In the past, he had only used his mental strength to communicate with him, but now he was using it to peep at his thoughts. If this continued, he was afraid that even the deepest secrets in his heart would be dug out. Damn it, bastards who were proficient in Soul Communication were so annoying …
"You are really too rude. Don't you forget that you are talking to a great Soul Trader now …" Connoris's previous threats did not scare him this time. This Demon Soul that had lived for god knows how many years did not seem to feel Lin Li's anger at all. He still said slowly, "Furthermore, this Soul Trader intends to tell you a way to solve your current predicament. Just based on this alone, you should be more respectful to this Soul Trader, right?"
"To hell with the Soul Trader …" Lin Li did not even have the time to curse before he suddenly reacted. Thus, Lin Li swallowed the word "human". His originally angry expression immediately changed into a fawning smile. "This … This … Great Soul Trader, do you really have a way?"
"Of course!" Connoris's voice was filled with disdain.
"That's great, Great Soul Trader. Your wisdom and knowledge are simply the model of the Abyssal Demons. Even the legendary Lord of Demons is not as bright as you. With your broad mind, you will definitely not take this little unhappiness to heart. Great Soul Trader, can you tell me what I should do now?"
"Hmm …" After a long period of bootlicking, Connoris finally replied with a satisfied "hmm". "Alright, seeing that you are so sincere, this Soul Trader will reluctantly give you some pointers …"
"You say, you say …"
"Apart from that Necromancer, none of you have the right to sign a summoning contract with the Humerus Wyrm. So, don't even think about it, because it would be a waste of time …" Connoris finally mocked Lin Li without holding back. "However, signing a summoning contract is not the only way to tame this Humerus Wyrm. Have you forgotten that in that weird Dimensional Space of yours, there is still an oil lamp that Osric personally made …"
"You mean the oil lamp that sealed the Lord of Nightmares?"
"That's right …"
"But …" Lin Li's voice was suddenly filled with doubt. "But isn't that oil lamp already used to seal the Lord of Nightmares?"
"Who told you that an oil lamp can only seal one living thing?"
"…"
"Hmph, when Osric was making this oil lamp, I witnessed the entire process. In fact, Osric even asked me for some knowledge related to the soul during the process of making it …" Lin Li thought to himself.
When Lin Li heard this, he almost laughed out loud. He thought to himself, This Merchant is indeed eloquent. Even extorting a confession can be described as asking for advice …
"Almost everyone thought that Osric made these 12 oil lamps to seal the 12 Demon Lords. Actually, how would they know the true intentions of this lunatic? When these 12 oil lamps were made, this lunatic once said that he wanted to put the entire abyss into these 12 oil lamps! "
"…" Lin Li immediately sucked in a breath of cold air …
"Back then, in order to make these 12 oil lamps, Osric used up almost all the spoils of war that he had plundered in the Abyss War. Each of these 12 oil lamps can seal countless demons and Undead creatures," said Lin Li.
