"Have you ever heard of the legend of the lich?"
"What is a lich? Never heard of it!"
"The Kingdom of the Undead is located deep underground, the place where the dead return. And deep in the rotten swamps of the Fairy Mountains, there is a lich who can resurrect the dead. "
"The lich can communicate with the underworld, exchange the souls of the living from the land of the dead, and bring the dead back to life!"
"The lich is an evil undead that plays with souls. It is an existence that escapes death and the rules of gods. It makes a contract with it, and the lives of ten people and hundreds of people are exchanged for the soul of one person."
Near the Fairy Mountains, the connected places, whether it is the Kingdom of Mara, the Holy Sevier Empire, or even the villages on the border of the Kingdom of Light not far away, the distant Orc Sea Trade City of Danello are discussing these dark and terrifying things. rumor.
Legends about lich and undead spread around. Legend has it that as long as you walk through the rotten swamp, in the dark depths of the swamp forest, as long as you call the name of the lich, there will be a headless horseman of death from the underworld. Come to pick you up.
"Then as long as you say your wish and offer your sacrifice, it will fulfill your wish."
"Has anyone ever made a deal with such an evil existence? Aren't they afraid of being cursed by the gods?"
"I heard that the young master of Viscount Ivar's family is..."
The legends may be true or false, which further adds to the gloom and terror of the entire Fairy Mountain Range. The name of this mountain range, which was originally full of holiness and life, now takes on a gloomy and dark color.
In the dark Xuefeng cave, there are a large number of transformed skeleton soldiers guarding the underground caves. In addition, there are death knights who have advanced from ghouls, and various weird synthetic beasts. Inside the cave, countless monsters that are enough to frighten people shuttle around, and the complex underground cave system is like a maze.
In the core hall leading to the layers of underground passages, Adnos was leaning on the table, holding a charcoal pencil. Under the light of the gas lamp, there were more than a dozen large scrolls on the table. It is a complex and dizzying witchcraft guidance array. On the ground around it, there are countless information on the research of necromancy, body modification, soul fire and philosopher's stone.
"The witchcraft guidance array of the Philosopher's Stone is so exquisite!"
"How could there be such a genius idea? There is such a commonality between soul and magic power. This is how the birth of spiritual power turns out to be!"
And Adnos is modifying the guidance array. Adnos' soul fire originated from the combination of the mystery of the soul and the power of the Philosopher's Stone. Adnos is looking for a way to transform other lives into The way of the undead, and the way of batch conversion.
"Here, here, the guidance array node here should be modified."
"I don't understand here. What is it used for?"
"This is the place where the magic net is connected, quack quack, it should be modified to extract the consciousness power of the living."
With Adnos's continuous modifications, a pair of witchcraft derived from the guidance array formed by the Philosopher's Stone appeared on paper. Since four years ago, Adnos has been trying to study the magic. The lich's transformation method and this powerful witchcraft.
"The name of this witchcraft is Song of the Dead!"
Adnos smashed the pen directly on the ground, stretched out his hand, and saw these parchment scrolls, one by one, being closed continuously. In Adnos's hand, they were automatically bound into an extremely heavy book. Adnos waved his hand, and several large gilded characters appeared on the leather cover, meaning Adnos' Scroll of the Dead.
Adnos's Undead Scroll contains detailed records on the transformation of lichs, the creation of various undead creatures, especially the most terrifying witchcraft of the undead lineage, the Song of the Undead.
Adnos saw that he had spent countless efforts on the Night Owl Knights of the first generation wizard Levi, the Ghoul Death Army of the previous Adnos, and the undead he developed based on the soul fire system. The army, the undead lineage, finally took shape in the hands of Adnos.
This made Adnos extremely proud. He surpassed Levis and the previous generation of Adnos whom he cared about very much. In terms of achievements and attainments in witchcraft, he far surpassed the two of them.
"I am the most powerful, and I am the real master of death."
"I will control death, control death, hahaha, no matter what wizards, priests, Templars, great sages Anthony, Pharos and Maria, even gods, no one can control me or control me!"
Looking at his masterpiece, the witchcraft recorded on it, especially the Song of the Dead, seems to have given Adnos infinite courage, changing his original timid and hidden aura.
The original failure of Levis and his predecessor Adnos caused a strong psychological shadow on him, so he has always acted cautiously, and thinking of the huge lake caused by the fall of the stars outside Babs City made him even more... fear.
At this moment, Adnos got rid of all the shackles. Everything that originally frightened him was forgotten by Adnos, and he regained his true self.
As winter approaches, snowflakes are flying on the Fairy Mountains, and the sky is full of wind and snow, covering the entire World Decoration City in silver. And a team of orc knights, from the north of the Fairy Mountains, all the way through the snow-capped swamps, arrived at the Fairy Mountains. Deep in the mountains.
A female knight wore a thick fur cloak outside her armor. Under the protection of many cavalry, her horse hooves stepped on the ice and snow, and gradually passed through the windy and snowy forest, arriving at the foot of a huge stone monument.
On the huge stone tablet, there are blood-red symbols engraved with abbreviations. In the Finks language, this means death. It indicates that from here on, we will enter the world of death, and no living person can enter!
"Pretending to be a ghost, I want to see what this so-called lich is!"
Delmedi has completely grown into a tall female knight. Her red cloak is constantly being blown by the wind, and the cold wind and ice and snow are constantly blowing by. However, the cavalry behind her are silent, only waiting for Delmedi. 's command.
Delmedi took out a ring, raised it and looked around. Not long after, he saw a being riding a strange horse rushing out from the depths of the forest in the hazy, invisible wind and snow. .
Sitting on it is a horse with a black horn. Its predecessor was a magical beast called a unicorn. After being caught by Adnos in the depths of the rotting swamp, it was transformed into an undead. There is no more at this moment. The original holy taste, only darkness remained in a pair of pupils. While gasping, black flames continued to spurt out of his mouth, like a monster running out of hell.
Riding on this monster was a headless knight, with rusty armor, a sharp sword, and green flames dancing around the broken neck, as if speaking an unknown language.
Delmedi suddenly felt that this monster was very familiar. He looked up and down, but never remembered: "Who are you?"
"My name is the Headless Horseman, the guard knight under your lord's seat, the one who leads the way. You have come with the ring of contract. What is your wish and what is the sacrifice?"
At this time, an armored head hanging on the horse's head suddenly turned around and spoke to Delmedi.
