While Suhlen was cleaning up the Twisted Shadows.
The Underground World.
The dim light caused this place to be shrouded in darkness all year round. At this moment, a huge shadow suddenly emerged from the darkness. The shadow was more than six meters long and had a majestic body like a lion. However, unlike a lion, it had a pair of wings like a pterosaur. As it swayed its tail, it revealed a hook that flashed with cold light. It was a scorpion tail.
A Manticore!
It was a powerful magical beast in the Underground World. It was said that this monster also had the bloodline of a dragon. The pair of dragon wings was proof. As a high-level predator in the Underground World, although the Manticore did not have any magic abilities, its venom was very difficult to deal with.
Compared to its venom, the thing used by assassins was simply a potion. In addition to being very poisonous, its venom also had the characteristic of paralysis. The Manticore's venom was a prohibited item in the human kingdom. In the black market, it was sold for up to two thousand Kinnar.
But now, this Manticore, which was at the top of the food chain in the Underground World, was fleeing in a sorry state. A pair of dragon wings flapped rapidly as the Manticore quickly flew through the air. At this moment, a bone spear shot out from the darkness and instantly pierced the Manticore's wing.
Under the pain, the Manticore could no longer flap its wing. The other wing struggled to continue flying, but it could not carry its heavy body. It staggered and fell from mid-air.
As soon as the Manticore landed, a few figures rushed up. With the weak light of the fluorescent moss, one could see the dark bones on their bodies. They were Skeleton Warriors. The Manticore found that there was no hope of escaping and fiercely pounced.
— — Curse: Weakness
— — Curse: Aging
However, as soon as it made a move, a spirit light struck its body. Its originally strong body instantly became weak and powerless, and its originally strong body suddenly became old. The surrounding Skeleton Warriors swarmed forward, and the Lion Scorpion Beast was completely trapped. Although it could still bite off the Skeleton Warriors, even more Skeleton Warriors had surrounded it when it attacked.
In the face of these skeletons, the Manticore Beast's most powerful poison attack was completely ineffective. Not long after, a Skeleton Warrior seized the opportunity to pierce its throat. Although this Skeleton Warrior was also split into two by the Manticore Beast's counterattack before it died, to Undead Skeletons, a damaged body could be replaced. As long as the Soul Fire was not extinguished, they would not die.
A large amount of blood gushed out of the Manticore's throat. The counterattack before death had exhausted its strength. The light in its eyes dimmed quickly, and its body collapsed.
At this time, a figure wrapped in a black robe and riding a skeleton horse came out. It had the characteristics of the Highlanders. It had a hooked nose, wrinkles, a rigid face, and cold eyes. Although it was tall, it looked very pale. There were three different rings on its fingers. One of them looked like a skeleton that was dozens of times smaller. It held a white bone staff in its hand and was surrounded by a cold aura.
Seeing that the Manticore was dead, the middle-aged man waved his hand. A few Skeleton Warriors behind him stepped forward and began to skin and cut the Manticore.
"Damn it!"
Just as the Skeleton Warriors were cutting the Manticore, the middle-aged man's expression changed drastically. He quickly took out a gemstone that looked like an eye. The originally exquisite gemstone was now cracked.
"Who dares to attack my guards and invade my laboratory?!" Keaton's expression was gloomy.
"Damn rat. Don't let me catch you. Otherwise, I'll pull out your soul and stuff it into a rat's body."
Keaton packed up the Manticore. He didn't ride the skeleton horse anymore. Instead, he directly flew in the direction of the gemstone mine.
Suhlen didn't know that he had alarmed the Necromancer. The laboratory in the gemstone mine wasn't big. Soon, Suhlen turned the entire laboratory upside down. Suhlen didn't touch the bones and other things inside. These things were useless. Only the Necromancers would collect them. As for the bottles and jars in the laboratory, Suhlen didn't take them. After all, who knew what was inside?
However, in the storage room next to it, Suhlen found a large number of gemstones. Obviously, these gemstones had just been excavated by the Necromancer. In addition to these gemstones, there were also some books in the laboratory. "Human Anatomy Diagrams", "How to Make a Skeleton Warrior", "Detailed Explanation of Necromancy", and more than ten other books.
Su Lun packed them all up and took them away.
"Ptui, what a pauper. Even these gemstones were excavated from my gemstone mine." Suhlen pursed his lips. He casually put some magic materials into his storage space.
"You two, throw away those bone sticks. Don't touch those glass bottles. Now hurry up and get out. We've already searched his nest. With the Necromancer's abilities, he must know by now. Let's get out of here quickly. " Suhlen yelled at the two grey dwarves who were playing with the skeleton of a Skeleton Warrior. He then left the gemstone mine.
In the underground world, a hazy figure was flying quickly. A few Distorted Shadows circled around him to help him fly faster. There were also many Skeleton Warriors running on the ground.
Along the way, Keaton didn't rest at all. With the help of Distorted Shadows, his flying speed was very fast. However, it didn't consume much mana. Wherever this group of Necromancers passed, all monsters would retreat.
As he continued to speed up, Keaton saw the gemstone mine in the distance. Landing from the sky, Keaton didn't rush in recklessly. Although he had used Fly to reduce the consumption of mana with the help of Distorted Shadows, he had also used up a lot of mana.
Someone who dared to kill the large number of Skeleton Warriors and Distorted Shadows that he had left behind to guard the laboratory was undoubtedly powerful. If he rushed in like this, there was a high chance that he would fail miserably. Moreover, he had come back in a hurry. His Skeleton Warriors didn't catch up.
Taking out a bottle of blue potion, Keaton tilted his head back and drank it. He then had Distorted Shadows protect him while he used the potion to quickly recover his Will and mana.
About half an hour later, a group of Skeleton Warriors finally arrived. Keaton opened his eyes. A cold light flashed in his eyes.
"Little rat, I'm here. How dare you steal my laboratory. I'll make you regret being born in this world!" Keaton stood up. The gloomy aura around him intensified.
.....
Suhlen had the grey dwarves retreat from the mine and hide in a corner. He found a stone room outside the gemstone mine and waited quietly. Suddenly, he opened his eyes. His body flashed and he was outside.
Just then, a large number of red dots appeared on his strategic map. The red dots were moving straight towards the gemstone mine where Suhlen was. It was obvious that this was their destination. It was obvious that the necromancer had returned.
"Interesting!"
"You stole my laboratory and didn't run away. You're still standing here. Are you begging me to forgive you?" A middle-aged wizard on a skeleton horse, his body shrouded in mist, walked in with a large number of Necromancers.
He glanced at the messy skeletons on the ground and then looked at Suhlen. "You're quite strong. I've decided. I'll refine your corpse into a black knight! Then I'll stuff your soul into a rat's body! "
Suhlen walked over with the Purple Dragon Halberd in hand.
"Human? Why don't you let your companions come out with you? You can't kill Distorted Shadow with your strength alone! "Seeing Suhlen alone, the necromancer said disdainfully. There were no magic waves. Although his body was strong, for a wizard, this kind of warrior was the easiest enemy to deal with. A Maze spell could trap him.
"I smell the rotten smell of the corpse. It's already rotten and stinking. You should've just stayed in the coffin. Why did you have to come out and scare people?"
Suhlen calmly looked at the necromancer in front of him. Although the way he appeared looked like a big boss leading a group of guards, in the system interface, he had not broken through to the legendary level. He was only a grade 4 necromancer. It would be troublesome to deal with a wizard above the legendary level. After all, his anti-magic skill was only effective against wizards below the legendary level.
Although there were many limitations to the anti-magic skill, it was enough to crush enemies below the legendary level. The eyes of the middle-aged man in front of him were dark red. Although he looked like a human, Suhlen could sense that there was almost no life in his body. Instead, there was a strong undead energy surrounding him.
Even if he was a necromancer, although he could use undead magic and energy, he was still a living person. Suhlen felt that the man in front of him was not much different from a corpse. No, there was still a difference. He could run and jump. That strong undead energy could even make a normal corpse come alive.
Hearing Suhlen's words, the middle-aged wizard's face suddenly changed. In the next moment, a strange black fog gathered and quickly rushed towards Suhlen.
Suhlen's body flashed and dodged, but the black fog seemed to have a life of its own. It turned around and rushed towards Suhlen again. It turned into a cloud of smoke and directly covered the surroundings, not giving Suhlen a chance to dodge.
"Curse?"
The invisible energy directly acted on Suhlen's body. Suhlen only felt that his body seemed to have become much heavier. But then this feeling disappeared. A large number of data appeared on the system interface.
"The host has been weakened by the curse … Going through a forced immunity test … Immunity test successful. The host is immune to this curse attack …"
"Voodoo school, necromancy school …"
Suhlen's eyes flashed. He did not expect to meet a necromancer who was also a voodoo school wizard when he came out to open a mine. One must know that these two schools were famous for being insidious.
