Necromancer: Rise of the Undead Lord

Chapter 23: The Terrifying Front Sentinel of the Burning Legion

“Ding! Unforeseen mission has been triggered [Escaping Kill, Arrival at Forward Charge City]”

“Mission Description: Due to the interference of unknown forces, there’s a problem with the teleportation formation. Unknown and dangerous enemies have begun to hunt you down. You need to head to the nearest Forward Charge City and report the situation to City Lord Dylan.”

“Mission reward: 5,000 Reputation Points for Forward Charge City.”

A sudden mission appeared. This high reward made Chu Qi feel that something was wrong.

The reputation of a main city was extremely difficult to obtain, especially for a border city like this.

However, this mission alone had a reward of 5,000 Reputation points. This was equivalent to half a month of hard work by ordinary players.

This was something Chu Qi had never encountered before.. The surroundings were empty, without any players or NPCs.

“A familiar smell. the bloodline of the undead, and the body of a human.”

A voice suddenly sounded in the surroundings. Chu Qi finally understood that his class had attracted enemies.

The surrounding forest began to shake.

Chu Qi did not hesitate and activated [Vanishing Step].

The moment his body became transparent, he began to run towards the south.

On the map, Chu Qi was only 10 kilometers away from Forward Charge City.

With his current speed, he would reach his destination in less than ten minutes.

Compared to facing an unknown enemy, Chu Qi chose a safe method, which was to run!

At this moment, the enemies behind him also revealed their figures, and a big headed but small figured demon appeared.

[Front Sentinel of the Burning Legion]

Level 25

Health: 600,000

Attack Power: 8000

Skill: Mark

Chu Qi saw the monster’s introduction and opened his eyes wide. The Burning Legion that should have gradually appeared three years later had appeared at this time.

Even though they were only some sentinels, each of them had the attributes of a Boss. There were about twenty to thirty of them densely packed behind him.

Chu Qi’s last thought of resistance was obliterated. He only cared about running towards Forward Charge City.

The front sentinels of the Burning Legion saw that Chu Qi’s figure had disappeared, and the originally compact formation dispersed.

They searched in all directions. Three followed behind Chu Qi.

In another 10 seconds, Chu Qi’s invisibility effect would disappear. There was no other way.

This couldn’t go on. If he continued to run, he would still be seen in the end. He had to find a way to deal with these three brats.

Chu Qi crossed a hill and hid below, summoning his summoned beast, preparing to catch the three outpost soldiers off guard.

Summon Critical Hit!

There were originally only five skeleton warriors, but under the summoning critical hit, ten of them appeared!

Chu Qi was extremely surprised. After triggering this critical hit, Chu Qi had greater confidence in dealing with these three sentinels.

At that moment, the sound of footsteps grew louder. The front sentinel was nearby.

Chu Qi immediately held his breath and waited patiently.

In less than ten seconds, the first sentinel reached out.

8066

8675

8356

…

Without giving the sentinel time to react, the ten skeleton warriors jumped up and attacked.

Immediately after, the five nether wolves attacked with the arrows of the skeleton archers.

12000

11980

[Fatal Strike]60000

[Fatal Strike]60000

…

The nether wolf’s attack fortunately triggered two fatal blows, and the health of this sentinel was instantly drained.

Without even attacking once, Chu Qi instantly killed a monster with 600,000 HP.

Ding! Talent skill activated. All attributes received 1 point, passive skill [Pursuit] obtained.

[Pursuit]

Skill Description: The attack will release a debuff that will cause+10% damage to the enemy.

Without waiting for the skill description, Chu Qi ran.

However, the sounds of fighting attracted the attention of the two sentinels around them.

One of them immediately shouted loudly. The surrounding sentinels all stopped searching and ran towards Chu Qi.

Seeing that there was no way to stop it, Chu Qi could only command his summoned creatures to block it from behind while he ran towards Forward Charge City.

However, just as he turned around, a red circle of light surged out from the front sentinel’s hand and attached to Chu Qi’s forehead.

Looking at the status bar, the duration of [Pursuit]: 10 minutes.

[Pursuit]

Skill Effect: Obtain the target’s location and increase damage by 10%

At this moment, there was no need to search anymore. Chu Qi’s location had already been exposed to the vision of the sentinels.

It couldn’t be helped. They were still a distance away from Forward Charge City.

Chu Qi stabilized his body and prepared to fight.

8976

– 8864 –

The skeleton warriors were the first to move. They surrounded a sentinel who was at the front and began to attack.

The nether wolf arched its body and looked like it was ready to attack. The moment the skeleton warriors surrounded the target,

The Wolf also pounced forward, and high damage appeared one after another.

The surrounding skeleton archers continuously used three consecutive arrows and continued to attack.

680,000!

450,000

200,000

In less than half a minute, one of the sentinels was taken care of by Chu Qi, but the number of skeleton warriors decreased from ten to three.

Chu Qi summoned the skeleton warriors again. This time, there were no critical hits. Only five appeared.

Without the addition of the Summoning Critical Hit, Chu Qi’s skeleton warriors could only maintain at five. This greatly reduced the speed at which Chu Qi dealt with one of the sentinels.

[Dark Mark]

Chu Qi raised his hand and threw a technique. Then, the surrounding summoned creatures pounced again.

Finger of Death!

Ding! Talent skill activated. All attributes received 1 point.

Ever since Chu Qi obtained it, the technique that had been dormant had finally taken effect.

The remaining 50-odd sentinel soldiers were instantly killed.

Before Chu Qi could heave a sigh of relief, a scene that made his scalp tingle appeared.

Sentinels of the Burning Legion crawled out from all directions and surrounded Chu Qi.

This was going to be troublesome. There were still twelve left. This was not a situation that they could take on head-on.

The skeleton warrior broke the stalemate first and pounced towards a nearby outpost.

The war began.

Death Soul Curse! Dark Mark!

Chu Qi no longer held anything back. As long as a technique lit up, he would release it.

The front sentinel of the Burning Legion wasn’t like the other demons who would only foolishly attack the enemy in front of them.

They directly passed Chu Qi’s summoned creature, waving the machete in their hands as they rushed towards him.

Flash!

Chu Qi broke free from the encirclement and summoned his skeleton warriors again.

At this moment, all the sentinels were gathered together, and the damage from [Shockwave] was maxed out.

The data of the explosion appeared above the sentinel’s head. Chu Qi added another [Death Soul Curse].

Therefore, under the continuous attacks of the sentinels in this area, one-third of their HP had been lost.

The advance guard was very fast. Seeing that Chu Qi had run out, he immediately changed his location and surrounded him again.

8000

8000

One couldn’t dodge in time, and the two attacks already hit Chu Qi.

Chu Qi’s health also fell to the freezing point.
