The two saw corpses littering the ground as soon as they entered the cave. A rough estimate estimated that there were at least a few dozen bodies. Judging from the clothing on their bodies, there were guards from the slave shop, nobles who had come to choose their slaves, and even slaves who had been imprisoned in cages.
Torches burned on the surrounding walls, illuminating the area. This place was most likely used to imprison slaves. There were many iron bars in the surroundings, and there were also some instruments of torture in the middle. It looked like they were used to discipline disobedient slaves.
A high platform had been built with black stones in the center, and a corpse was tied to several pillars. There was a square groove about three meters wide in the center of the platform, and a strong stench of blood emanated from it.
More than ten zombie warriors were summoned and lifted the corpses on the ground, throwing them one by one into the pool of blood in the center of the platform. When the intact corpses fell into the pool of blood, they sank into it with a splash. The pool of blood then bubbled with a gurgling sound, calming down after a while as the water level in the pool rose a few notches.
As more and more corpses were thrown into the pool of blood, more and more blood appeared in the pool, almost filling it to the brim. In the corner of the platform, the necromancer that Han Shuo had seen last time was holding a white bone staff and revealing his appearance. His body was emaciated, and he was looking expressionlessly at the pool of blood. No signs of life could be seen in his greyish brown eyes.
Han Shuo and Selina immediately retreated to a corner when they entered, only using the cracks in the corners to observe everything. Emily set up a soundproof boundary around the two and immediately said in a low voice, "It looks like this necromancer is setting up some sort of altar. I wonder what he's planning on doing?"
Shaking his head, Han Shuo's expression was grave as he said lowly, "I don't know if it's because I've grasped too little necromancy magic, but I don't know anything about this altar that the necromancer is setting up. It looks like an archmage necromancer has grasped many powerful necromancy spells indeed."
As Han Shuo and Emily spoke in low voices, the necromancer waved the white bone staff in his hand and chanted a spell in a low voice. The blood in the pool of blood on the altar suddenly began to swirl, and the corpses that had been tied to the pillars were instantly stripped of their flesh and blood, becoming a few sets of eerie white skeletons.
Another spell of necromancy was chanted, and the souls on the ground that hadn't yet dispersed seemed to materialize as they transformed into clouds of greyish brown smoke, surging into the pool of blood in the center of the altar. The blood in the blood pool formed a whirlpool, and the bones of the corpses that had just sunk to the bottom were revealed one by one. Then, these white bones slowly pieced together, gradually forming a three-eyed evil god with eight horns on its head and a barbed tail at its waist.
This Three-Eyed Evil God was formed from white bones. Its three eyes were red, yellow, and blue, like triangles embedded on its forehead. When it was still forming, a vast and enormous evil presence spread from its body, filling the entire area with its evil presence. It was a kind of ruthless, murderous, and extremely bloodthirsty evil.
Even from a great distance, Han Shuo felt a chill in his heart. His eyes abruptly locked onto the three eyed evil god, not leaving it for even a second as he focused all of his attention on all of its movements.
"Oh, my gosh, he's connected to the three eyed evil god, Ansidesi, through the altar." Emily groaned in disbelief, her beautiful eyes filled with shock.
Gods were powerful beings of legend, and they had the ability to penetrate the heavens and the earth. However, they were bound by the laws of the plane and couldn't reveal their true forms in this world. However, through some rituals and mediums, some people in this world could actually use profound secret techniques to communicate with the gods.
All this time, Han Shuo had thought that this kind of unproven theory was very absurd and that it was something that couldn't possibly exist. But now that the truth was right in front of him, Han Shuo had no choice but to believe it. Seeing that they were separated by who knew how many planes of existence, the three eyed evil god, Ansidesi, had used this necromancer's ritual to descend his consciousness onto the white skeleton. Han Shuo stood there in a daze, his thoughts a mess.
A series of mysterious and ancient sounds came from the mouth of the three eyed evil god. Han Shuo and Emily were both baffled and didn't know what this string of sounds meant. However, the skinny necromancer seemed to be able to communicate directly with him.
The necromancer was prostrating on the ground, his head buried deep in his chest as he kowtowed. He suddenly lifted his head with a look of fear and trepidation, and then quickly chanted an incantation. The "Life Scout" necromancy magic was released, and it suddenly floated in all directions.
"Not good." When Han Shuo saw this magic appear, he immediately knew that he was in trouble. He suddenly gave a low cry and planned to pull Emily away from this place.
Unfortunately, he was still a step too late. The "Life Scout" magic spread out in all directions, and suddenly lit up when it neared where Han Shuo and Emily were. The face of the kneeling necromancer immediately darkened and he suddenly waved his white bone staff. The dozen or so zombie warriors that had stopped in the surroundings suddenly walked towards Han Shuo and Emily.
"We've been exposed, we have to leave immediately." Emily shouted and suddenly retreated, planning to take Han Shuo and leave this place.
At this moment, the sharp-eyed Han Shuo saw that because of the necromancer's distraction, the body of the three eyed evil god, Ansidesi, that had just been formed from white bones, suddenly collapsed into the blood pool on the altar.
It looked like the necromancer couldn't be distracted for even a moment in order to use the mysterious magic to use the blood and bones in the blood pool to communicate with the three eyed evil god Ansidesi. If the necromancer was distracted to deal with Han Shuo and Emily, then Ansidesi, who had crossed who knew how many planes of existence to descend upon this place with his consciousness, wouldn't be able to use the blood and bones to appear.
"The three eyed evil god Ansidesi can't help him, the two of us don't need to be afraid of him." Han Shuo's body paused and he stopped at the entrance of the cave. He even grabbed Emily's retreating body with a backhand grip.
Emily's beautiful eyes focused on the altar as soon as she heard Han Shuo's words. She also discovered that the three eyed evil god had disappeared into the blood pool. She immediately calmed down and shouted, "Who are you to dare use such an evil ceremony to summon the three eyed evil god Ansidesi in Valen City?"
"The two of you shouldn't have barged in, otherwise I wouldn't have killed you." The skinny necromancer used a levitation spell to fly towards Han Shuo and Emily after saying these words in a hoarse voice.
He waved the white bone staff in his hand and released a high level necromancy spell, "Chains of the Grudge Spirits". Dozens of "grudge spirits" tangled together and formed a long metal chain that moved towards Han Shuo and Emily. The dozen or so zombie warriors also raised their wooden clubs and arrived in front of Han Shuo and Emily, immediately attacking Han Shuo and Emily.
Emily snorted delicately and took out her magic staff. She chanted a dark magic spell, and a pitch-black Death Scythe suddenly took shape in the air. She pointed her magic staff at it and it slashed towards the zombie warriors. The zombie warriors' bodies were as fragile as paper under the Death Scythe's slashes. They were torn apart in an instant, and not a single one was able to get close to Han Shuo and Emily.
As the "Chains of the Grudge Spirits" wrapped around them, Han Shuo's Demonslayer Edge suddenly whistled as he activated the "Mystical Glacial Spellfire", causing the Demonslayer Edge to explode with blinding red light. The temperature of the entire space suddenly soared as the red spellfire enveloped the Demonslayer Edge and burned fiercely, rapidly descending towards the "Chains of the Grudge Spirits".
The "Chains of the Grudge Spirits" formed by dozens of grudge spirits opened their mouths and screamed in terror under the scorching temperature of the Demonslayer Edge's "Red World Spellfire". When the Demonslayer Edge whistled into the "Chains of the Grudge Spirits", the "Chains of the Grudge Spirits" made squeaking sounds and gray smoke rose from it. Dozens of "grudge spirits" screamed as their souls were destroyed.
Three bone spears suddenly formed and abruptly pierced towards Han Shuo and Emily. Han Shuo used his mind to control the Demonslayer Edge to block the two bone spears flying towards Emily. He also chanted a necromancy spell in a low voice and a bone spear pierced through the air, accurately colliding with the other bone spear that was attacking him.
"Eh? Kid, you're also a necromancer!" The skinny necromancer suddenly exclaimed in surprise and looked at Han Shuo with great surprise.
"Heh heh, indeed indeed. We even joined hands to kill Clark when we were at Calvert's place just now. This is the second time we've met tonight." Han Shuo looked at the necromancer with a calm expression and smiled faintly.
Last time at Calvert's house, Han Shuo had covered his face at first and had only taken off his mask when he killed Clark. When the necromancer had attacked Han Shuo, the two had been quite a distance apart. Because it had been the middle of the night, the necromancer hadn't clearly seen Han Shuo's face. It was obvious that Han Shuo hadn't recognized him this time.
"So it's you!" The necromancer exclaimed lowly and quickly floated towards Han Shuo again. He said darkly, "We're both necromancers, let me see if you've understood the mysteries of necromancy."
The necromancer attacked again after he'd finished speaking, looking like he wanted to kill off Han Shuo first.
