Chapter 4 The Revenant Archmage

Under the gaze of the mysterious purple pupil of the wild beast, many mercenaries walked out of their hiding place. Barun was surprised and immediately woke up. The other party must have magic power such as psychedelics.

"careful!"

As the leader's low warning sounded, the mercenaries came to their senses, but it was too late and their direction was fully exposed.

"Who do I think I am? It turns out that they are a few thieves. Ah, there are mages and knights. I think you don't want to see the sun tomorrow. With this ability, you dare to go to my mage tower?"

The undead mage walked out from behind the giant beast with a black gold scepter in his hand, and his low and hoarse voice echoed in the empty tower.

Barun's back was covered in cold sweat. He could feel the powerful magic power emitted from the other party. Not only could he not move at all, but he even lost his sense of fighting.

What a terrible opponent. Without chanting a spell, it can make people surrender based on their momentum alone.

We are not his opponents!!

Eruson's hands were also trembling. As a fire mage and fire master, he knew that the undead wizard had exceeded the level they could deal with.

Level 6, Level 7 or Level 10 mage?

Lantoya evaluated Pedine's rank with a pale face, but could not measure the other party's rank at all.

She has never encountered such a situation since she became a priest at the age of sixteen.

"Dear elders, we just want to ask for some bone meal and have no other intentions."

Baru took a few steps forward with the courage to express his purpose. The black giant beast slowly approached the Necromancer, staring at everyone with cold purple eyes, as if he would launch a fatal attack at any time.

He was nervously holding on to the giant beast. As a mercenary, Baru knew that outsiders were strictly prohibited from entering the mage towers of light or darkness. If they broke into it without permission like this, they would definitely anger the owner of the tower, but in order to complete the task, they had to bite the bullet and take a risk.

"Hmph...I don't care what you are doing. Since you are in, don't think about going out." The black-robed wizard raised his pale right hand holding the staff.

"Sigh of death."

The level 5 undead magic was easily cast by a wizard, and there were no complicated spells that should be used when casting magic.

The huge pressure came with a hoarse and sharp voice. The mercenaries who were the first to bear the brunt immediately felt that they had difficulty breathing and all fell to the ground due to lack of oxygen.

"Lantoya!!"

Eruson shouted, raised the magic wand in his hand, and chanted the flame-type attack spell loudly.

The fireballs flew one by one toward the wizard standing at the only exit, and Sue rushed forward with his sword, trying to kill the wizard before the next spell was recited.

Lantoya, who came back to her senses, also recited the defensive spell, and Diredava quickly shot sharp arrows at the guardian to prevent it from attacking the others.

The mercenaries who could still stand also rushed up. They knew that once the necromancer summoned the zombies and skeletons outside the tower would be all over. With the current strength of the thirty people, no one could fight back, let alone the guards who were still eyeing each other.

"call!!"

Fireballs and arrows passed through the bodies of the necromancers and giant beasts, hitting the black wall behind them. The mercenaries who rushed forward to kill the deceased wizards and guards all rushed out, and some even fell down the stairs because they couldn't stop.

"Phantom Technique!!"

Only then did everyone realize that the other party had used the magic of hiding his body at the beginning. But it was too late, and the wizard and the giant beast appeared behind everyone.

With a light click on the staff in his hand, the Dead Mage spoke a quick and short spell.

"Spiritual bondage!"

Most of the mercenaries collapsed weakly, and those who could stand were knocked down by the guards one by one. Only Eruson and the other were still struggling to support them.

"It's so boring. It's over so soon. It seems... you all have to join the ranks of meat cubes below, and you don't even have the qualifications to enter the maze."

The wizard raised his staff again and recited the intermediate spell that he rarely used in daily life.

"Dance of the Dead."

Countless undead and ghosts emerged from the darkness with the wizard's summoning, flying towards all living objects present.

The screams resounded throughout the night, and even in the distant city of Meili, people closed their doors and windows, and tonight was another terrifying night that made people unable to sleep.

Lantoya struggled to maintain the defensive barrier, and Eruson kept singing simple magic of light to drive away the dead souls.

But all this was useless. Their magic power was not as good as the necromancers, nor could they take care of others at the same time. The mercenaries attacked by the undead cried out in pain.

As the death aura becomes stronger and stronger, most of the mercenaries are already unconscious. If this continues, it will not take long for everyone to be sucked away from their anger and become zombies without thinking ability.

"Oh no... he is a great master of the deceased souls!!" Eruson suddenly realized the difference in strength between the other party and his own.

The great master of the Dead Soul - the honorific title of the high-level mage of the immortal type, is a high-level mage who surpasses the apprentice, the lower-level, and the middle-level. They have powerful magic powers no less than the high priests, and are synonymous with evil, death, and fear.

There are currently six great masters of the Dead, hidden in four continents of Anesia. The person in the Dead Tower, Pedine Oup, is the third-ranked great master of the Dead, an old wizard who has lived for more than 300 years. He is a difficult person who has even had a headache for even the Emperor.

A hundred years ago, after failing to compete for control of the Lich King Samad for Death, Pedine was forced to leave the Crean Desert, and was driven away by the Holy Church of Light and hid everywhere. Then he came to the territory of the Night Elf - the Black Forest.

Originally, the Black Forest was a forbidden area for anyone to enter and exit, but because the night elves rarely returned to the ground in nearly a hundred years, the Dead Mage had the courage to build a mage tower on the edge of the forest.

He accidentally discovered that there was an extremely huge ancient ruin hidden underground here, and its scope was even wider than all known ruins.

In fact, the builder was the former ruler of the Eastern Continent - the Night Elf. Since thousands of years ago, with the collapse of the night Elf Empire with internal struggles, they have gradually lost their original huge territory and have to retreat to the dark underground.

Because there is a very powerful magic power hidden in the ruins, Peddy had the idea of ​​gathering it for himself. This not only allows you to return to the Death Leader, but you may also defeat Sama, who has always suppressed him, and become a new generation of rulers of the Death Leader.

Because the underground ruins are extremely dangerous, they are all good at dark spells. There are anti-magic teleportation spells in the ruins. They are worried that they will meet the night elves, so they have to give up the idea of ​​taking risks in person, select some elites from the adventurers who come to the volcano, put them into the ruins, and these captured adventurers explore the way for him.

But even so, what he got was still failure again and again.

******************************************

"No... I can't hold on..." Eruson's light protection finally collapsed due to the exhaustion of magic. The aura of death penetrated into his body along his skin and breath. The flame mage fell to the ground depressedly, his face full of death's ashes.

Lantoya also fell to the ground by overdrawing her body due to maintaining the barrier, and blue-black appeared on her pale face.

As for Baru, who has the lowest resistance to magic, Diredava has been in a coma for a long time, and even Sue, who is still awake, is not much better.

With the help of the purifying power of "Elf Light", he only had a little more time to survive than others.

The Dead Soul Mage, who had been thinking about how to enter the ruins, suddenly remembered that the number of people he was preparing to put into the ruins was still a little short.

Why not keep them, which will save me some effort. Well... let them live a few more days...

The attack magic that Pedinette was originally about to take action was also changed to teleportation magic due to the sudden change in his mind, and threw a group of adventurers into the wide basement at the bottom of the tower, where many adventurers he had carefully collected for several months had gathered.
