Huiwei opened his mouth, as if he wanted to refute Chris Ding, but after he glanced around, he swallowed his words again. An Fei saw Hui Wei's actions, but he didn't say anything.

"An Fei, didn't you just say that you wanted to catch the evil spirit? Did you finally catch it?" Niya asked curiously.

"No." An Fei shook his head with a depressed expression. He still hasn't figured out how the evil spirit disappeared.

"Alas..." Niya let out a long sigh: "Our life was so peaceful before. We didn't have to worry about anything. I don't know what happened this year. One trouble after another. It's really frustrating."

After Niya said this, everyone showed a wry smile. Niya was right. The life in the Holy City used to be peaceful and happy. They only needed to practice magic with peace of mind every day. But since they escaped from the Holy City, their troubles have It never stopped, as if God dumped all the troubles that should have been a lifetime on them, one after another.

"An Fei, it's all your fault!" Niya said suddenly coquettishly.

"What's wrong with me?"

"Since you came to our house, all kinds of troubles have come. You are really a disaster!" Niya's words were a bit abrupt. If it weren't for the smile on her lips, and if everyone didn't know Niya's character, This sentence is bound to cause misunderstanding.

"Miss, I don't want to run around all day long. You can't blame me, right?" An Fei didn't know whether to laugh or cry. In normal times, he is actually a very generous person. He doesn't take Niya's rudeness to heart now. superior.

"It's your fault."

"You can't blame An Fei, it's Malis who is too despicable!" Bravi said: "Maris and Melinder framed An Fei together. After being kicked out by the teacher, he brought Zeda back to find us. It’s troublesome, if we didn’t resist at that time, we might have been killed by them long ago.”

"By the way, was Maris dead at that time? I was so nervous that I forgot to check on him." Riska continued.

"Die. I saw Zeda stab him hard. You can't survive that kind of injury."

"That guy Zeda is so vicious. He wanted to pierce Malis's body and then stab An Fei. I guess Malis won't believe that Zeda would attack him."

"Ha...what's unexpected?" Bravi sneered: "That guy Zeda is full of bad ideas. With Philip's support, what can't he dare to do?" Bravi hated Zeda very much. As a student of Sol, among young people. He was a high-profile figure, but Zeda didn't care what he was doing. He just took action and almost beat him to death in public. This humiliation was something Bravi would never forget.

"Brawi is right! Zeda is the worst of the four major troubles in the Holy City."

"What are the four major troubles? Those are all made up. Stop talking nonsense." Chris Ding stood up in a hurry and glanced at Niya secretly. You know, Niya is also one of the four major troubles. In fact, Chris Ding's statement makes sense. The so-called four major troubles are just someone who reluctantly put four unrelated celebrities together. There is no specific basis for it. It sounds funny to others. He then spread the word to his friends, and it spread slowly like this. In fact, Niya, who only likes to do small pranks, was compared with the other three people. As holy as an angel.

"The four major troubles? Who are they?" Niya asked curiously.

Everyone almost fainted. No one thought that the person involved had not heard the rumors, but if you think about it carefully, it was normal. Who would tell Niya the rumors? Isn’t that just asking for the blame

"It's Zeda's group." Chris Ding hurriedly changed the subject: "Although killing Zeda brought us trouble, when I saw An Fei knocking down Maris and Zeda, I I feel really comfortable, if it were me, I would do it."

"Yes, if I hadn't been restrained by the magic-forbidden bracelet, I would have helped An Fei teach them a lesson." Riska also said bitterly.

"I didn't see anything..." Bravi's face was full of depression. He was already unconscious at the time and could not see the comfortable scene.

"An Fei's swordsmanship was already very good at that time." Feiler said with a smile: "The time An Fei used his foot to attack Zeda with the sword was really beautiful."

"Use your feet to draw the sword?" Bravi's eyes widened.

"He just threw the sword out, then kicked it on the hilt, and then the sword shot out, hitting Zeda."

"An Fei's sword skills are already great." Chris Ding added with a smile: "Didn't you notice? Ernest and Mioric are both very interested in An Fei's sword skills."

"Wait a minute, wait a minute, are we talking about the necromancer? Why does it involve me?" An Fei waved his hand helplessly. This digression was too serious.

"Hee... you guys talk, I'm a little tired." Niya stood up with a smile. This is her character. No matter what kind of difficulties she faces, as long as there is someone she can rely on, she will be the first to laugh. Come out, in fact, such a character is quite good. Staying optimistic can prolong your life... But Anfei is a person who finds it difficult to be optimistic. He often takes problems too seriously and is used to preparing for the worst. This is not what he wants. , but reality forced him to do this.

"Okay, everyone, let's go and have a rest. Riska and Bravi, you two don't sleep in the first half of the night. I will replace you in the second half of the night." An Fei said softly.

"Yeah, I understand." Riska and Bravi nodded together.

Everyone stood up and walked out. An Fei first asked Chris Ding to stay with his eyes, and then shouted: "Huiwei, don't leave yet."

Huiwei shrugged, turned around, walked back, and sat down on the chair.

There were only four people left in the room. An Fei motioned to Susanna to close the door, and then said softly: "Huiwei, if you have anything to say, say it now."

Huiwei hesitated for a moment and then said: "I deliberately mentioned the servants of Death just to help you. In fact, it is impossible for those necromancers to create servants of Death. I feel that it is a brand new puppet technique."

"why would you say so?"

"Because I know the origins of some Death Servant Puppetry techniques." Hui Wei said slowly: "In the blood of the Death Servant, there is a very terrifying medium lurking. The Death Servant can only inject his own blood into the body of a normal person. Only in this way can normal people be transformed into the same kind, but this medium has long since disappeared and they cannot recreate it.”

An Fei and Chris Ding looked at each other, but neither of them spoke.

"Chris Ding, you imagine necromancers are too scary. In fact, they are also very fragile." Hui Wei smiled: "I have a wide range of interests and want to know something about everything. There was a short period of time , I also did some cursory research on necromancy, but luckily I still had some sense in the end and didn’t go down the road of no return.”

"It's not that I imagine the undead to be too scary, but that you imagine the undead to be too simple." Chris Ding shook his head and said.

"What do you mean?" Hui Wei said somewhat displeased.

"You have only briefly studied necromancy. You are not one of them. You can say you know nothing about them."

"Do you know?"

"You should have noticed just now. Mioric looked very nervous. Do you think he was worried about one or several puppets? Then you are wrong. What he is afraid of is inertia."

"Inertia?" An Fei and Hui Wei asked in unison.

"When necromancy first appeared, it was favored by kings of various countries because necromancy could create countless cheap and loyal warriors. However, due to the characteristics of magic, as the necromancers grew, the kings' The mentality changed, from favor to fear. When people living on the mainland began to spurn necromancy, the necromancers felt that they were being used and then abandoned. Instead of tolerance, they used massacre to He vented his anger and eventually became the public enemy of the entire continent."

"I also know what you said." Hui Wei continued.

"Then you should also know that the necromancers have a kind of inertia. Whenever they are defeated, the remaining necromancers will hide in unknown corners and slowly accumulate strength. When they think they can fight against the entire continent, they He would jump out and make some small moves to test the reactions of various countries." Chris Ding smiled: "Twenty or thirty years ago, were there any necromancers active?"

Huiwei thought for a while: "No."

"Many people now know about a necromancer named Anacita, but they don't know that Anacita was already active around ten years ago, and the teacher once mentioned her. This time Anacita dared to create zombies in the Hengduan Valley , do you understand what it means?" Without waiting for Huiwei's reply, Chris continued: "The necromancers will only make such a provocation when they think that their strength can compete with the entire continent. It means that the Undead War may break out soon!"

"It can't be that serious, right?"

"Facts will prove it." Chris Ding smiled: "Now one of the two high priests of the Church of Light has come to our Mayo Empire, and the other has gone to the Shansha Empire to mediate the war. The Pope made an appointment with the crown prince of the Alison Empire. Are they just mediating for the sake of mediation? In fact, many people are aware of the threat of the Necromancer, but they don't know where the Necromancer's first target will be, so Miocic becomes nervous after seeing the puppet. Simply Puppetry is not scary, the scary thing is the necromancers that pop up like mushrooms after the rain."
