Chapter VIII Contractors (1)

"I've never seen such a shocking spell. You may not believe it, but I did see the crystal left over from the war hundreds of years ago..."

"Come on, Modric, memory crystals are very precious things, so Mr. Barocchif would not be willing to take them out easily. Especially the memory crystals in his hand that have a history of hundreds of years."

"It's true, I didn't lie to you."

In the Adventure Guild, a boy dressed in a nobleman explained to his friends excitedly, but unfortunately no one was willing to believe his words.

Adventurers and mercenaries in groups of three or three crowded this small adventure guild.

"Allen, what are you in a daze? Change the new wanted order quickly." Obi patted the young man standing at the door in a daze.

"Oh..." The young knight turned around and took the new wanted order handed over to his hand, and began to paste it on the wall one by one.

Suddenly, the door was pushed open very hard. When everyone looked back, a thief ran in panic and threw a large package in his hand on the table.

"I urgently need to exchange all these things for universal coins."

"Sir, I am the Adventure Guild. It is neither a pub nor a thief Guild. We do not accept the stolen property." Obi walked forward, and his eyes flashed a little surprised after touching the package on the table.

"This is a very rare object in another world. I think I can buy it here for a good price." The thief took out a metal object from the package and shook it in front of Obi.

"You should send it to the auction house and you can buy it at a better price." Although he was a little moved, Obi knew that the more precious things you buy from a thief, the easier it is to get into trouble.

And what they need most is trouble.

"I still have to say that we won't accept the stolen things." He pushed the package out and Obi firmly stood firm.

If you really buy it, it may cause unnecessary trouble.

"Don't do this, look at this again..." Seeing that the Adventure Guild had no intention of buying it, the thief was a little panicked, and quickly took out a piece of colorful crystal from the package.

"Memory Crystal!!"

Someone in the hall recognized the things in the hands of the thief. It was a high-purity crystal. Only the great wizard's magical tools and the storage of important memories would use such expensive crystals.

"Do you know what this thing is? You will change your mind after reading it." The thief was very confident.

Obi hesitated for a while, and finally took the memory crystal handed over by the thief and placed it on a special magic prop that specifically releases memory storage.

Huh...

After the slight sound of magic fusion, the memory crystal emitted a soft light.

In the evening, even if the candles are not lit to light up, the images released in the memory crystal are still enough to illuminate the entire Adventure Guild.

In the extremely desolate desert, dense white bones rushed towards a rock slightly higher than the surrounding ground like a tide, and occasionally some green ghouls were mixed in.

In the dark sky, several ragged skeleton mages held up their staff with black light shining in their hands, singing evil and ancient spells.

"It's a lich..." Several experienced mercenaries immediately recognized the completely ossified skeletons, the evil wizards who were legendary alone could destroy a city.

Accompanied by the shrill roar of the lich, huge golems formed by dry bones were born, and they approached the giant rock with another trembling pace.

In the spell chanting, all kinds of undead who were only seen in legends joined this army of undead.

"What's this……"

The mercenaries and adventurers in the Adventure Guild were all surprised to see the images released from the memory crystal.

"Could it be... this is the legendary underworld, the birthplace of the undead?!"

Some mercenaries boldly raised their doubts, but no one in the great adventure guild could answer them.

In the suffocating undead, a red nightmare came silently on the black rock. With trembling fear, the black shiny armor and flame-like mane appeared in the breath of death.

[General…]

The undead murmured, and the originally unscrupulous charge stopped abruptly.

In people's perception, the skeletons and ghouls who should have no thoughts all raised their heads and stared at the figure on the back of the nightmare.

"What do you group of ownerless lichs want to do?"

Unlike the deep and hoarse voice of the undead, the clear voice slowly drifted away in the empty desert.

"I am Edios, the greatest lich." A skeleton mage at the front of the lich team proudly announced his identity, and his words also made the people who watched the memory crystal exclaim.

Edios is the most feared dark mage hundreds of years ago. After the Dark Magister, another famous evil mage.

He was born in the Southern Continent to do everything evil by using his noble status and the status of a great wizard. Finally, the church sent the Holy Dragon Knights to encircle and suppress it. The evil lich led its skeleton army to disappear on the way to the Eastern Continent. No one had seen it again. Even the "Death Corps" gathering place of the lich, there was no trace of this evil mage.

Edios, who once gave a large amount of bounty to investigate the church and the empire, became another wanted target in the mercenary world who could not be closed.

At this moment, when people in the Adventure Guild heard the Lich's identity report, they naturally talked about it.

"Get out! No matter how identity you are in the earthly realm, this is a bone burial place, and no undead is allowed to enter the forbidden area." The black fog covering the entire huge rock dissipated, revealing the knight riding on the nightmare.

Countless tiny skeletons were squirming on the dull armor, as if the suffering souls raised a double-edged sword that was almost the same height as his one hand. A young face appeared in the flickering black magic flames.

"Darling Night Goddess?!"

People burst into amazement, why did the goddess of the Dark Night who ruled the Eastern Continent join the undead?

Of course, Obi and others knew who was riding in the nightmare and wearing armor.

She was not a goddess worshipped by her tribesmen in the hall, but a general who was almost unknown to the world.

It was also a month ago that the people of the Blood Alliance learned why they always felt that Roland looked so familiar.

Because she has almost the same appearance as the Goddess of Dark Night.

"Roland..."

Someone among the viewing crowd read the correct name of the girl in the magic image, which immediately attracted the attention of the Blood Wings present.

Three cloaked adventurers were talking to a brunette boy, and behind him were two tall companions.

"No matter how brave you are, you will never be able to defeat this large army of undead alone." Seeing the knight on the nightmare appearing, although the lich was a little afraid, relying on the large number of low-level undead, it still challenged the high-level undead; "Submit to me, the undead knight, I need high-level undead like you. As long as you are willing to become my subordinate, I can let you escape from the underworld and enter the earthly realm that the undead yearns for."

"This guy already has a master."

An ethereal voice suddenly sounded in the quiet desert. With its appearance, all the undead that had been peeping in the distance disappeared without a trace.

Fear came quietly. Under the suppression of the strongest force, the lichs noticed that their bodies could not move, and the skeletons they carried were all pounced on the ground like they had dispersed.

"What's going on..." As a deceased who is not afraid, Edios actually felt "fear" for the first time after becoming a lich.

In the sigh of the young undead knight, Edios saw a head that should not belong to the underworld slowly floating on her breastplate. The elf-like man embossed the terrifying aura that made all things tremble.

"You are just a human-transformed undead, and you actually try to touch something that does not belong to you. The lich who is arrogant and reckless, no undead dares to cross my realm in the entire underworld. You just want to make my general warrior surrender to you, an ignorant idiot."

"General of the Underworld? Could it be..." Edios shouted in horror and retreated.

"Sir Edios, let's go quickly..." Several lich followers quickly opened the time and space gate they prepared in advance.

Before he could leave, the frightening blonde hair revealed a sarcastic smile on his lips, and a terrifying spell was cast along with his sneer.

"Soul body separation!!"

Amid the roar that made people's eardrums hurt, the lichs were shattered into powder by invisible force, leaving only their tattered black robes on the dry earth.

"king……"

Only the last echo of the lichs full of fear was left in the empty desert.

"How, this crystal is very rare, right?" The thief retrieved the crystal, and the magic image was interrupted.

"It's the memory crystal related to Roland."

"I think we should buy it, no matter how high the price it is."

Obi was discussing with Farian and others who had arrived from the underground dormitory, and the door of the Adventure Guild was pushed open again.

"I bought that crystal." The blonde knight in gorgeous armor walked into the adventure guild, and everyone recognized him almost at the same time.

"Paladin Itzhak!!"
