This deep gaze from afar seemed to be able to penetrate the eternally dark and gray sky of the kingdom of the dead, and was directly locked on the Lich Amber, as if she had a clear insight into her soul.
This made her whole body tremble slightly, and the two strands of green soul fire in the skull's eye sockets were even more pulsating, and there was an emotion in her mind that had been gone for a long time and was about to be forgotten.
After recalling for more than ten minutes, Lich Amber remembered that such emotions should be called 'fear' and 'panic'
After becoming a lich, she hasn't experienced such fragile human emotions for a long, long time.
The kingdom of the dead is a kingdom of God, which naturally has the advantages of being shielded from prying eyes and unable to divination. The lich nesting in it should be very safe.
But that gaze was looking directly at the soul of Lich Amber...
However, after the panic at the beginning, she quickly regained the calmness that an undead creature should have. After thinking about it for a while, she realized that her phylactery should have been found by some powerful guy.
That person was spying on the mysteries of the phylactery, so it gave her the feeling of being examined.
She suddenly remembered that not long ago, the master of the kingdom of the dead, the Lich King Modo had issued a metaphorical order to let all the liches return to the phylactery stored in the present world.
Lich Amber naturally did as well, but she left one in the end, and placed it with her teacher back then, Invoker Karl.
She trusts the teacher's strength and character very much, because she is his most proud student, there should be no accidents in the phylactery, and this arrangement can also be used as her last card to save her life.
But now, something went wrong in this link that shouldn't be the least unexpected.
Something happened to the teacher? His treasury was invaded
How can this be? With the teacher's strength and accomplishments, no one in this world is his opponent, even His Excellency Modo, he has to prepare a large number of elite undead legions in advance to fight against him...
What existence in this world dares to be an enemy of the teacher
Lich Amber pondered for a while before riding the bone dragon to the Lich King's laboratory and reporting the matter to him.
After listening to her description, Modo's soul fire flickered slightly in his eyes, and then began to chant and cast spells, adding several protective magics to Amber, and at the same time activated the multiple protective barriers in the laboratory.
This kind of behavior made Amber feel a little baffled.
"Your Excellency? Why is this?"
Modo explained:
"There is an insidious sect in this world that has mastered the means of directly attacking the soul. Angmar and his students fell under this means..."
"This move is very dangerous and poses a huge threat to us, so I ordered you to take back the phylactery of this world."
"You put a phylactery with the supplicant, there should be no problem, but who knows..."
After Amber heard this, the soul fire in her eyes jumped even more.
But Modo said again:
"But I can't be sure whether your phylactery fell into their hands."
Lich Amber nodded, and subconsciously wanted to use divination to see who moved her phylactery.
But just as she assumed the divination pose, she was quickly interrupted by the Lich King.
"Stop your foolishness! Don't divination!"
"It was because of rash divination that Angmar brought about the disaster of killing!"
"It was a god who made the move, but I don't know who did it, and I don't understand why His power can directly descend on the kingdom of the dead... But in short, divination is very dangerous, don't try it!"
Amber was more bluffed than him, stopped quickly, and asked in doubt:
"But didn't you say that the gods are already too busy to take care of themselves? Why would they want to target me, a little lich?"
The Lich King didn't answer directly, but paced back and forth in the laboratory, lost in thought.
While thinking about it, he also stretched out his hand to break off the ribs on his body one by one, and after playing with them, he put them back one by one.
Every lich has one or two small actions to help thinking, just like Amber polishing the bone dragon, it has a similar meaning.
There are even some liches who like to take off their heads when they are thinking, and keep throwing them around, or swap hand bones and leg bones.
Doing so helps keep their minds active.
After Modo repeatedly broke and reconnected the ribs on his body ten times, he finally figured out something, and said:
"Since you are still alive, it means that the other party is not in a hurry to make a move, otherwise you would have fallen long ago."
"Perhaps, the other party is not the arrogant and unreasonable guy before, but some other accident?"
You thought about it for so long and came up with this
Amber could not help but slander.
Although liches have an almost endless lifespan, it is not free. Their thinking activity is much slower than that of ordinary humans, and they often need to spend a long time inexplicably thinking about an originally simple problem, which will appear Pretty slow and sluggish.
This is the price of eternal life, and it is also the main reason why the supplicant has never dared to make up his mind to transform into a lich.
Amber also thought for a while, and then said:
"My teacher, the supplicant is the strongest existence in this world. It is impossible for someone to snatch the phylactery from his treasure house. Even if there is, he still has enough time and means to warn me."
As soon as she finished speaking, a ghost suddenly appeared beside her. It was her messenger, responsible for communicating with the outside world.
The ghost stretched out a pair of sharp claws, put aside its stomach, took out a letter from it, and handed it to Amber.
Amber hurriedly opened the envelope and read it.
As expected, the letter was sent by the supplicant. It seems that he did have enough time to warn his students.
The credible content is somewhat incomprehensible.
"Dear Amber, my forever student..."
"There is an extremely noble and powerful existence who intends to visit your kingdom of the dead..."
"I don't know his specific intentions, but if possible, I suggest that you be humble and friendly to him, and don't be an enemy of him..."
"If you can't decide your position, try to find a way to escape. I can provide you with some shelter here..."
"Trust me, this is the most serious advice!"
"Your teacher, Carl."
Amber gave this letter of belief that she didn't understand to Modo, and the soul fire in the latter's eye sockets also flickered, faintly looking towards '? ' The shape of the sign twisted.
It means that there is a guy who intends to trespass on the kingdom of the dead, and wants us to open the door to welcome him without resistance
When our place is a public toilet? Come whenever you want? Just leave if you want
Come in and try? I can't kill you!
Modo felt a long-lost anger, and a green evil flame flashed in his hand, burning the letter to ashes.
But the anger was only fleeting, and he calmed down almost instantly. He became a lich, and he would no longer burst into anger like a human being.
In a sense, it can be regarded as cowardly in a second, right
He turned around and asked:
"Prayer, you're not the kind of person who likes to make bad jokes, are you?"
Amber nodded seriously.
"Teacher, he has always been known for his seriousness."
"I think his suggestion is of great reference value, and we should consider it carefully."
So the two liches began to think again, one kept breaking his ribs, and the other took out a delicate, toy-like bone dragon from his pocket, held it in his hand, and polished it repeatedly.
After thinking for a while, the Lich King spoke again:
"Since it is an existence that can make even supplicants dread it, then don't act rashly, and try to contact it first."
------------------------
On Jia Luo's side, facing this phylactery, he felt a little helpless.
He could easily destroy it, or kill the lich, but he didn't know how to use this thing to help him open the door to the kingdom of the dead.
Actually... It's not completely impossible.
He can pass the power of power through this phylactery as he did with the lich before, and use this to knock a gap in the kingdom of the dead.
It is equivalent to using this phylactery and using that lich as a stepping stone.
But if you do that, the owner of this phylactery will definitely not be able to survive. To open a gap in a kingdom of God, the power required is not small. Under the pressure of power, the soul of the Lich will naturally not be able to bear it. Even existence will be erased.
Logically speaking, Gallo would be very happy to wipe out an evil lich, but it happened that this guy had some unclear relationship with the supplicant, so he asked him to plead for mercy.
Considering the importance of the supplicant in the future, Gallo still has to take care of his emotions more or less, and it is still not appropriate to directly attack him harshly.
Therefore, this method can only be used at the end. Right now, we should try a relatively mild method. Unfortunately, there is no good idea for the time being.
But just when he was in a bit of trouble, the phylactery suddenly shook, and a hoarse and interfering voice came out from inside:
"Excuse me, who are you? Why did you come to the kingdom of the dead?"
Instead, he asked the question straight to the point, and seemed to know that Gallo was going to the kingdom of the dead. Presumably, the letter written by the supplicant had already been delivered.
Gallo didn't say anything about it, he himself allowed the supplicant to tip off the news, not to mention that he didn't intend to hide his intentions.
So he also said very directly:
"I need to use the kingdom of the dead as a new cage to imprison Eas."
It sounds like a very simple sentence, but there is a lot of information in it.
The phylactery fell silent for a long time.
Gallo almost fell asleep.
Fortunately, the phylactery made a sound in time:
"I'm sorry sir, I don't seem to understand what you mean?"
The concepts of evil gods, Eas, and cages are too advanced for a lich who has not yet become a god, and it is normal to not understand them.
But if you don’t understand it, you don’t understand it. Why did it take so long to respond
These liches deserve to be born as mages, how rude!
Gallo slandered in his heart, and continued to say:
"Just literally..."
"In order to prevent the world from being destroyed, I need to requisition your kingdom of the dead."
The other party obviously didn't expect there to be such a rude person in the world, and after a long silence, he asked back:
"What if we choose to refuse?"
A sneer appeared on Gallo's face, and he replied in a deep voice:
"Then destroy!"
The phylactery suddenly trembled violently, indicating that the other party's emotions suddenly became extremely agitated.
After a while, there was another sound:
"Then please forgive me for refusing!"
"My favorite thing about modo is to say 'no' to self righteous 'people'!"
"I will be in the kingdom of the dead, waiting for your presence!"
After all, the trembling of the phylactery stopped, and it seemed that there would be no further conversation.
Gallo smiled, and the development of the matter to this point made him feel at ease.
I am willing to negotiate with these evil creatures and give them a chance, which can be regarded as giving the supplicant enough face.
Who knew that this group of liches could be so evil and vicious, knowing that the world was in crisis, but they were unwilling to cooperate with themselves.
Then for the sake of world peace, I can only force it.
The rest is very simple.
So Gallo simply stopped studying, put the phylactery back into his sleeve, and then undressed and went to bed.
The opponent cannot run away, so there is no need to rush for a while, and adjust the state first.
Rushing into the opponent's base camp to fight is still a very hard job, and a better state is needed.
Wait until it gets dark tomorrow night.
Gallo lay back on the bed, made up a random excuse to apologize to the goddess, and then fell asleep for a while.
To be honest, he had thought in his mind whether to go to Daidai's room to sleep together.
But his strong self-control controlled himself!
In this way, after a comfortable night's sleep, Gallo got up early the next morning, sat at the desk, wrote and drew on a piece of paper, and made preparations for attacking the kingdom of the dead.
When studying the phylactery last night, he also thought about how the other party managed to maintain a kingdom of God for a long time without gods.
Through the observation of the phylactery, his sight more or less obtained some information about the kingdom of the dead.
It turns out that the composition of the ingredients there is no longer just divine power, that is, the power of authority, but the power mixed with some other ingredients, such as the power of the enchantment, and the necromantic evil power of the Lich.
They made some kind of subtle mixture of the two kinds of power, based on divine power, and using the evil power of the undead as the pillar, so as to support the standing of the kingdom of the dead.
These improvements were clearly arranged by the god of death before his fall.
As a result, this Kingdom of God is not as pure as Visa's Kingdom of God.
But this is not bad news, but good news.
This kind of different kingdom of God is more suitable to be used as a cage!
