Chapter 17: Necromancer



Chapter 17: Necromancer

Lillian was startled to see her master reach out and press on the skeletons head. "Be careful, master. It will grab you."

As soon as she spoke, the skeleton's hand caught on to Robb by his ankle and tried to drag him underground.

Robb could smash the skeleton to pieces at any time, but he knows that the skeleton was once a relative of a townsman, so it wouldnt be good to destroy it. The townspeople call him father, so he had to pay a little attention and care to their affairs.

Thus, he had to give up on using the skill: Meteor Rain, Rending Earth, and Crushing Thunder. He'll be a little gentle and at least let his brother skeleton keep its whole body.

As soon as the skeleton was about to drag Robb, it felt a terrible force on its skull: the arm strength of the man in front of him. He seemed to have pressed lightly, but its power was overwhelming. The skeleton's bones cracked a few times, trying to resist, but how could bear it. He was returned to his grave in an instant.

He wanted to climb out again, but when he saw Robb pointing at him, a golden light flew out of his fingertips. It was the holy magic "Dispel." The skeleton suddenly lost all its strength and returned to its inanimate state in the grave.

Robb clapped his hands, turned to Lillian next to him, and said, "Lillian, bury it!"

"Yes, master!" Lillian quickly used the shovel to push the dirt left on both sides of the hole, which the skeleton used to climb out and covered it up again. She was a little afraid that the skeleton would climb up again, so she was ready to escape, but the skeleton was completely motionless and was obediently buried.

Robb had already found a second skeleton, half its body climbing out of the ground. As soon as Robb pressed on it with his hand, the skeleton returned to its grave, and then after using "Dispel," he said, "Lillian, after burying that, come and bury this."

"Yes, master!"

Around this time, a third skeleton had crawled out of its grave. He shook the dirt on him off and looked around. This guy was different from the two skeletons just now. He seemed sane enough to understand what was happening around him. It then turned its head and glared at Robb with its hollow eyes.

Seeing Robb getting closer and closer, apparently, to return it to its grave, it suddenly broke its left arm with its right. Then, it held its left arm in his right hand like a stick and sternly looked at Robb.

"Well!" Robb shrugged at the skeleton: "Don't hurt yourself. I can leave your body intact if you put your weapon down and talk well."

"Young manDon't Mind your own business " The skeleton spoke unexpectedly. It was clear that there was only one bone and that it didnt have a mouth or any other organ used to talk, but it could speak.

Robb saw that two small flames were burning in the hollow eye sockets of the skeleton, which looked like a pair of eye beads, and it was evident that a soul had settled in the skeleton. It was no longer as simple as the two skeletons that were manipulated by some simple puppet tricks. This time, a powerful soul is controlling the skeleton's movements.

"Oh! A necromancer? " Robb looked to his left and right. The hillside behind the cemetery was dark, and it was hard to see anything clearly. And even while using detection, its night vision, and its 5000 yards range, he still couldn't see anyone. Thinking about it carefully, there must be a necromancer manipulating the skeletons nearby.

"How can you tell that Im a necromancer?" The skeleton was surprised: "If so, you should know I am not one you can afford to offend. Mind your own business." Since Robb was in his pajamas, he couldnt see Robb as a powerful person; so he spoke with arrogance.

Robb said, "You ran into my backyard and tried to steal the bones of my sons' relatives, and you tell me to mind my own business? Damn retard, I went into your backyard to secretly dig your buried potatoes. Can you ignore me?"

The skeleton recognized Robb's identity from his sentence, "Damn it, are you a priest of this chapel?"

Robb said, "You deserve to die. Your whole family deserves to die."

"This is obviously an empty chapel. When did you come here?" The skeleton looked a little angry.

"Unfortunately, today." Robb said, "Don't you scout the location first before you steal? Oh, right, your main body is hidden very far away, so you couldn't even scout the place. You just used things like magic arrays arranged here in advance to manipulate them from a distance, right? I'll look for it carefully later. I should be able to find your magic array in several areas of the graveyard. "

Listening to his words, the necromancer who manipulated the skeleton understood that he messed with someone he couldn't afford! This isnt good. The skeleton had no choice but to strike, or he'll have to give up on all the graves of this village.

He manipulated the skeleton and waved its left arm before rushing at Robb.

However.

Robb used "Dispel," and the skeleton softly fell at his feet.

Obviously, the necromancer didn't have the time to refine this skeleton into a real undead monster. If it was refined, simple using dispel wouldn't be able to stop it, at least with holy magic. But now, because it is only being controlled remotely by a necromancer, it's a soulless skeleton, not a skeleton soldier!

This magic used to control skeletons remotely is, in theory, just a buff. One dispel is enough to clear the buff effects.

If the necromancers main body is here, he might be able to play with Robb a little. But with a remotely controlled skeleton, it wasnt even worth playing with for Robb. It only takes a normal dispel to deal with it. Even an ordinary priest can do it.

When the skeleton fell softly to the ground, the two sparks in its eye sockets slowly dimmed, and the necromancers magic had disappeared, so it returned to being an ordinary skeleton. Robb was just about to ask Lillian to come and dig the skeleton back to its grave; then, he suddenly remembered that the little girl was a little afraid of skeletons. Wouldn't it be scary to move such a creepy skeleton?

Alas, I'll do it.

He thought while working; his magic crept into the skeleton.

The skeleton immediately began to move, and two more sparks lit up in its eyes, but this time it was manipulated by Robb, not by the necromancer.

It first took back its broken left arm and shook its hands and feet, ensuring there were no missing arms and legs. Then, it grinned wide and clicked twice. Then it tried making a face at Lillian nearby, which was meaningless because it had no facial muscles. In Lillian's eyes, the skeleton just shook its head at her, creaking back into its grave. It laid down, folded its hands on its chest, and the spark in its eyes slowly dimmed again.

Robb ended the Skeleton Control spell and smiled, then said to the dumbfounded Lillian, "Bury this, too!"
