Chapter 180 Farewell, dear mentor (10,000-word chapter, please subscribe)
There is no doubt that Zuo Si’s emotions towards the Necromancer Asta are complicated.
Because the other party used powerful magical power to pull him out of the unknown space when he almost degenerated into a fertilized egg, and also imparted countless knowledge and experience to him, so that he finally embarked on the path of becoming a fertilized egg. The truth of magic.
Fully fulfilled the duties of a qualified "mentor".
But similarly, Asta also forced Zuo Si to do many things against his personal wishes.
Such as dissecting corpses and living people, or being thrown into inaccessible labyrinths, tombs and wilderness to participate in dangerous and deadly trials.
Even with bad intentions, he deliberately guided him to the special profession of creator who cannot cast spells.
Through these almost cruel methods, Asta forced Zuo Si to abandon many habits developed in modern society, especially the lazy, weak and kind parts of human nature, and to change his character and behavior patterns. A disruptive reinvention.
The most representative of them is strong utilitarianism and pragmatism.
For a while, Zuo Si deliberately planned to find an opportunity to kill this "mentor".
But in the end, because of the other party's cautious character, the matter could only be ignored.
Obviously, Asta has never truly trusted anyone but himself.
He really carried out the sentence "The only person a mage can rely on is himself."
When I decided to start transforming the lich, in order to avoid possible troubles and enemies, I sneaked to the mainland of Faerûn alone to complete the entire ritual.
Even Zuo Si, who was fooled, had to admit that Asta was a truly perfect mage role model.
In this way, the two of them maintained a certain degree of mutual vigilance. They entered this building that looked like an ordinary house in a slum, but in fact had been transformed into a magic laboratory inside. They sat together and talked for about an hour.
During this period, Zuo Si told everything that happened after the other party left the floating city tower, and how he became the chosen one of Talona, the goddess of poison and disease.
Because he knew that there was no point in lying to the Necromancer in front of him.
In return, Asta recounted his experience of coming to Amn and choosing to settle in Ascatla.
Even joining the "Emerald Society", a secret organization that resisted the Masked Mage Guild's monopoly on arcane power, did not hide it at all.
From the moment he decided to come to Faerun, the Necromancer had given up the idea of going back and planned to integrate into the magic system of the new world.
Because he understood that this apprentice was no longer what he used to be. He was no longer the "little guy" who could be manipulated by him, but a chosen one favored by the gods.
You must show enough sincerity to eliminate the dissatisfaction and resentment accumulated between the two people in the past and finally reach a cooperation agreement.
Yes!
Asta wants to cooperate with Zuo Si on equal terms to explore and adapt to this world with gods and greater magical heritage.
In fact, he had been secretly observing Zuo Si for several days, and today he finally found an opportunity to make contact without alerting other people or forces.
“So your body has been hiding and carrying viruses and bacteria from the original world?
And they have mutated under the influence of magical power?
Then Why did it suddenly occur after a year and a half?
Why were you not infected by the viruses and bacteria in the New World?
This is obviously not common sense.
I think it should be caused by other reasons. "
Asta frowned and expressed the doubts in his heart.
As a top necromancer, he has conducted in-depth research on things like plague. He even personally killed a large nomadic tribe with a total population of hundreds of thousands using plague.
So he is very aware of the limits of mutation that can occur when viruses and bacteria are directly exposed to magical energy. br>
Zuo Si shrugged his shoulders helplessly: "You ask me, how do I know.
Everything happened too suddenly and too quickly. At the beginning, I didn't even realize it was me. .
By the time I noticed it, the entire floating city had become littered with corpses, and a large number of corpses affected by negative energy turned into zombies and roamed the streets.
I could only die through autopsy. The corpse of the creature is used to understand the situation a little bit. The next step is to confirm whether it is still contagious. ”
"What about now? What's going on with the viruses and bacteria in your body now?" Asta asked with interest.
“My body is like a furnace now, and all the viruses, bacteria and toxic substances in the world have been injected by the goddess.
As long as a little bit of divine power is incorporated, it can be turned into Pure energy form to kill all living things
If you want to study this, give up this idea as soon as possible
Because divine power is not any kind of magical energy known. It's like a fusion of spirit, will, philosophy, beliefs and rules to create something
Even just a tiny bit can produce unparalleled power and destructive power.
Also, I won’t make fun of my own life. ”
Zuo Si bluntly stopped the other party’s delusion.
On the one hand, it is too dangerous, and there are not many mortals in Faerun who have conducted research in this area, so it is better to be safe. It is better to use sparks to transform slowly.
On the other hand, he has already had enough of being a "guinea pig" for the other party.
But Asta did not give up, and continued to try and seduce: "How will you know if you don't try? If we can understand the nature of the power of these gods and what kind of existence they are, we can also become gods. "Become a member of the gods?"
Zuo Si pursed his lips with naked disdain.
“Sorry, I’m not interested in becoming a god.
And you don’t know what God is, so why do you think you have such qualifications and confidence?
Dear mentor, I am no longer the apprentice at your mercy, so I hope you can recognize this as soon as possible.
Otherwise, I don’t mind dying a few times to wake you up.
By the way, I would like to remind you, do not think that becoming a lich will make you truly immortal.
In fact, finding the phylactery is not as difficult as imagined. "
"Is this a threat? "Asta's eyes suddenly became dangerous.
Because no one had ever dared to speak to him in this tone and attitude when he was in the floating city tower.
Zuo Si stood up straightforwardly and responded with a sneer: "Threat? No, I am just advising you to give up your original arrogance.
This world is more dangerous than you think, and it can also be There are too many beings to crush you like a bug.
Of course, if you insist on trying, I can always accompany you.
But once the battle begins, it must be one of us. Death as an end.
Fighting means killing, fighting means dying, this is what you taught me. ”
As the last word fell, the surrounding environment and air suddenly became tense and depressing.
Especially the Necromancer Asta, never in his wildest dreams did he expect that the man who once treated him The obedient apprentice seemed to be a different person after just a few months of seeing him.
He exuded a strong sense of confidence and a chilling aura of danger.
Most of all. The important thing is that he doesn't know anything about divine power and the elect.
In other words, few people in the entire Faerûn continent really understand it.
After all, the number of voters is very rare.
In addition, most of them are priests and do not even have the courage and guts to study divine power.
It is estimated that only a few legendary mage voters of the Goddess of Magic know a little about this, not to mention related books and research notes.
The First Chosen One, like Elminster, who has conducted in-depth research on the power of "Silver Fire" and even temporarily kept the divine power and priesthood for the dead goddess of magic during the turbulent years, will not use his research results Share it with anyone.
So Asta had no idea what kind of power Zuo Si, as a voter, would burst out.
He was not even sure whether he would be reborn next to the phylactery after his body was destroyed by divine power.
The two of them faced each other like this for three to five minutes. The Archmage of the Necromancer suddenly laughed: "Hahahaha! It's really incredible!
The one who behaved unusually in the floating city tower The generally obedient apprentice was indeed the disguise you used to protect yourself when you were weak.
Now this rebellious and ruthless Soth is your hidden nature.
< br>
Do you know? When you said you were going to kill me, that look and aura were impressive.
Congratulations, my dear apprentice, you can finally start your apprenticeship.
From now on, I will treat you as a spellcaster of equal status. ”
“Should I feel honored? "Zuo Si asked with a sneer.
"No need. I just want you to understand that in this strange world, you and I come from the same place and are naturally allies. There is no need to make trouble over some small things in the past. ”
Asta tried to calm down the tense atmosphere.
After all, he did not risk exposure to meet Zuo Si just to enmity.
It's a pity that Zuo Si didn't follow this trick, and immediately shook his head meaningfully: "No. It may be strange to you, but it is not like this to me.
I know more about this world than you can imagine.
So whatever you want from me, you must pay the price accordingly.
As for forming an alliance, forget it.
Because people like you who only believe in yourself are not worthy of trust at all. "
There is no doubt that Zuo Si's almost indifferent attitude made Asta completely lose his last bit of superiority. He even became a little bit angry and said with a cold face: "Are you sure you want to treat him in this way? I? You know, I am the only one who knows your true origin. "
"So what?
Do you think it can be used as a handle?
Don't be stupid! My dear mentor.
There are so many travelers from other dimensions in Faerûn that they are almost too numerous to count.
Elves, orcs, mind flayers, beholders, demons, devils, genies, rakshasa, elementals, celestials, githyanki, dragons...
Even Even the God of Knowledge, the God of Justice, the Elf God System, the Orc God System, and the human Mulan God System all come from other worlds. "
Zuo Si opened his arms and taunted the Necromancer.
Because he knew very well that under the rules of Faerun's magic network, the once formidable and powerful necromancer was now unable to cast all the magic he knew as he wished as before.
Rather, you must follow the rules of this world and convert mana into spell slots by contacting the magic network, and then memorize and use it.
If Zuo Si strengthened his power as a planeswalker in the process, then Asta was equivalent to being severely chopped. Both his spellcasting ability and the number of spells he mastered were greatly affected. of weakening.
Especially some super-nine-level spells must be re-researched and converted into "legendary magic" form before they can be used.
This process definitely cannot be completed in a few months.
Even a lich who does not need sleep and rest needs at least six months to three to five years.
In addition, various super magic skills such as "spell prompt", "spell delay", "spell silent", "spell powerful" and "spell maximum effect" also take time. Learn with energy.
So far, Zuo Si himself has only learned a "spell delay".
Therefore, he was confident that in a head-to-head battle, with the number of cards he had at his disposal, he could overwhelm and kill his former mentor in one fell swoop.
What's more, fighting in Askatra, Zuo Si has a home field advantage, that is, he has a permanently valid spellcasting license, but Asta does not.
Once the house is destroyed and the power of magic is exposed, the Masked Mage emerges to join the fight.
At that time, it will no longer be a one-on-one fair contest, but a "just gang fight" between a group of people against one person.
Asta has lived in this city for a long time. Of course, it is impossible not to know the rules of the Gold Coin City that prohibit the release of arcane magic outdoors, so he quickly stopped himself from wanting to do anything. impulse.
With the lich's absolute coldness and rationality, he successfully controlled his emotions and showed his trump card straightforwardly: "Don't you want to know what is the special space where your body will degenerate and become a child?" ”
“Oh? ”
The expression on Zuo Si's face finally showed a trace of emotion.
Because he has always wanted to find out where he was inexplicably transported to when he lit the spark for the first time.
Based on his current knowledge of the multiverse, planes, and crystal walls, he can almost confirm that it is neither the "astral plane" nor the "etheric plane", or any other existing plane. The plane and space of knowledge.
“I don’t know very well. But from the clothes you took off at that time, I tested and found some very, very interesting residues. I believe you should be interested. And those things in your body that suddenly Mutated viruses and bacteria may be very closely related to this mysterious substance."
Asta took out a sealed crystal bottle as thick as a finger from his test bench.
On the inner wall of time, you can vaguely see a little gray smoke, and a small number of tiny particles emitting dark purple light.
“Is this the residue that was collected from my clothes?”
Zuo Si deliberately pretended to be unsure.
He has discovered that the remaining gray smoke is the "culprit" that made his body and age smaller in the first place.
Asta replied with a half-smile: "Yes! I call it the Chaos Factor.
Because these residues can cause irregular and unpredictable random mutations in anything you touch, whether it is a person or an object.
To be honest, it’s a miracle that you survived.
I once ordered the slave to inhale a little bit of gas. As a result, his body expanded rapidly in less than a few minutes and turned into a behemoth dozens of meters tall.
Not only has the size increased, but the race has also undergone fundamental changes, like a beast without any intelligence.
Its powerful regenerative ability can restore the body to its original state even if the heart is destroyed or the head is shattered.
It took me a long time to kill it.
Of course, this is just one of a dozen experiments.
In addition, some experimental subjects have turned into metal, plants, rocks, burning flames, or even suddenly aged and died.
The most interesting one even shows the strange scene where the soul is separated from the body but is still alive.
Unfortunately, the number of these residues is so rare that it is impossible to conduct too many experiments.
What you see now is the last one left. ”
“What do I have to pay if I want it? "Zuo Si narrowed his eyes and tried.
There is no doubt that this residue has extraordinary significance to him, and it is also the only clue that can solve the doubts in his heart.
" I want the magical knowledge of this world, and all the information about the Weave, and all the spells you have mastered so far. In addition to this, you must provide a list of powerful spellcasters in the world that require additional attention, including their details. ”
Asta opened his mouth.
After hearing these requests, Zuo Si immediately refused without hesitation: "You are dreaming! I will never agree to such a completely unequal transaction."
"Then what's in this bottle?" Don’t you want anything?” Asta threatened with a chuckle.
"Of course I want it. But the problem is, you overestimated the importance of this thing in my mind. And...I now have a better idea, that is, just grab it."< br>
As the last word blurted out, Zuo Si suddenly activated a scroll hidden in his wide sleeves.
In an instant!
Asta was hit by the [Dimensional Anchor] and was completely unable to use any means of teleportation.
The next second...
Zuo Si directly activated four [Advanced Combat Undead] cards and four [Scorching Glory (Three-ring Divine Technique) held tightly in another hand. , gathering energy as sacred as the sun to burn the target, and have higher additional damage to undead creatures)].
Before the Necromancer had time to react, dazzling positive energy rays surrounded him, instantly causing astonishing damage to the Lich's body filled with negative energy.
You must know that the damage limit of any spell made into a card is directly linked to the planeswalker level, not the mage professional level.
This also means that under the premise that the planeswalker level is as high as LV7, the power of any damaging spell will increase exponentially.
Although the latter immediately triggered the [Accident Technique], a layer of silver reflective energy sphere immediately wrapped Asta.
Unfortunately, this four-ring protection magic [Secondary Spell Invalid Barrier] that can block one to three-level spell attacks takes effect too slowly.
Through the magic barrier, you can clearly see that the necromancer's lich body has been severely damaged.
Some skin and muscles that originally looked no different from normal people had large areas of ulcers, and even the bones inside were broken.
Especially on that face, the eyeball in one of the eye sockets was completely blown out, and the other one was connected to the optic nerve and drooped to the side of the nose. It looked extremely ferocious and terrifying.
Without a doubt!
Zuo Si almost killed this powerful necromancer that he could only look up to with just one blow. Similarly, Asta was also frightened by this attack that did not chant a spell or perform any spell-casting actions, and directly activated all the magic protection on his body.
In just a few seconds, the whole body was flashing with arcane aura that could blind people's eyes.
Zuo Si had no intention of stopping him at all, but stood there and allowed the other party to add all the protection, and then said expressionlessly: "Last chance. Give me what you have in your hand. Otherwise I will Kill you, then find your phylactery and destroy it. Don't forget, I am the chosen one of the goddess of poison and disease. I can get the necessary information and clues by asking the god directly."
" Damn it! What spell did you use just now? Why didn't I have time to react to the [accidental spell]?" Asta asked through gritted teeth.
As a new lich, this was the first time he experienced being attacked by a positive energy spell that restrained undead creatures.
The indescribable pain awakened the fear of death deep in my heart on the spot.
"[Higher Strike against the Undead] and [Scorching Glory], two insignificant three-ring magics. How do you feel? Do you feel that you are only one step away from death?" Zuo Si's mouth raised slightly.
To be honest, he was a little surprised that Asta could withstand the damage from four [Higher Strike Undead] and [Seering Glory] cards.
Because under normal circumstances, most lichs would probably have their bones turned into ashes after being hit by this.
But the other party was only seriously injured and on the verge of death, and he still had one breath left.
Eighty percent of the damage was offset by some powerful magical items.
Of course, this has no impact on the final result.
Next, Zuo Si only needed one shot of [Ring of the Ram] to take him away directly.
"That's it! You have mastered the magic specifically for undead creatures, so you dare to threaten to kill me."
Asta's tone was full of strong vigilance and fear.
More importantly, Zuo Si's growth rate far exceeded the limit he could imagine.
And he had no idea what kind of trump cards the former apprentice in front of him had.
"You taught me that a well-prepared mage is invincible.
You may not believe it, but I have prepared quite a lot of means to deal with another lich these days.
< br>Who would have thought that it would be used on you today?
I have to say that this is really fate.
Please choose now.
Should I hand over what originally belonged to me, or die here today, taking a gamble on whether I can find the phylactery before you complete your resurrection. ”
Zuo Si issued the ultimatum with a smile on his face.
It is not difficult to tell from his eyes and demeanor that he is very much enjoying this kind of pushing the former high-ranking Necromancer into a blind corner. Feeling.
Because the other party forced him like this in the first place.
“How can I believe that you won’t suddenly fall out after getting the thing? "Asta asked, squeezing the bottle in his hand.
Zuo Si spread his hands and replied: "You have no choice.
I still remember the first time you threw me into an ancient tomb and left me alone in a world full of traps, traps and undead creatures. What did you say when you found the exit from the maze?
You said that the strong dominate the weak is the eternal truth of this world.
If you don’t want to be dominated, then become stronger. You are stronger, and then I can control you in turn."
Asta froze for a moment and said in an unbelievable tone: "So now you are retaliating for something I have done to you. ?”
"Don't get me wrong, this is not revenge.
To be honest, I am actually very grateful to you for forcing me to continue to be cold and ruthless.
Otherwise, I am afraid it will be difficult for me to survive until now.
So this is not to retaliate against you, but to thank you in this way
Let you understand how good I have become at this moment, just like you expected me to be. >
Haven't you been saying that you hope that an apprentice can successfully kill you?
I am just fulfilling your wish..."
While saying these words, the offering ring on Zuo Si's hand suddenly lit up.
< br>Seeing that Zuo Si wanted to continue his attack, Asta immediately threw the bottle in his hand, then turned around and ran towards the secret door at the back of the room that was used to escape.
Since he could not use any teleportation. Magic, so he directly activated the power of the [Speed Boots] on his feet, making him as fast as a world champion in the 100-meter sprint
But unfortunately, the moment he touched the secret door switch, a sheep's head made of energy hit him hard from behind.
Bang!
The Necromancer immediately felt as if his body had been hit by a siege ram, and his feet instantly lifted off the ground and hit the wall in front of him.
Although the body is blessed with many magics to protect against energy and physical damage, there is no force field protection spell.
The result was that his cervical spine and skull were broken by the Ram Ring on the spot.
The blood and brain matter that had not yet rotted and dried suddenly splattered everywhere, completely staining the walls and ground red.
As for Zuo Si on the other side, he easily released a zero-ring [Mage's Hand] and steadily caught the bottle Asta deliberately threw behind him.
After doing all this, he commented casually: "My dear mentor, you have indeed become weaker since you came to this world.
You no longer have the power to display at will. Level spells;
There are no more carefully crafted powerful undead creatures and constructs;
There is no longer the proud super magic skills;
Even the mage tower has been replaced by this simple magic laboratory rope.
The most important thing is that you are still so greedy and want to exploit me like before.
In this case, let me take you on your way.
After all, being killed by one's best apprentice is the highest honor as a mentor. ”
After saying this, Zuo Si took out the little devil's card again and paid mana to summon it.
In the blink of an eye, this evil little thing appeared again.
However, unlike the last "Zuan" greeting, it looked much more honest, and was kneeling on the ground in a very humble manner.
"I need your psychic skills!" Zuo Si said the request without hesitation.
"As you wish, my great, evil, cold, cruel and heartless master."
The little devil hurriedly got up from the ground and quickly began to chant spells and perform complex spell-casting movements.
Not long after, its pupils began to dilate, appearing exactly the same as last time.
"Is the phylactery of the lich Asta in this house?"
Zuo Si, who had once experienced using [Theosophy], asked the question directly.
“Yes!”
The little devil immediately responded in the affirmative.
“It’s exactly what I expected.”
Zuo Si couldn’t help but show a playful expression.
Because Asta has the habit of not trusting anyone, he will only hide the phylactery in a place where he can see it and protect it in time.
Coupled with the fact that he was new here, he had very few positions to choose from.
If nothing else, he should be hiding in his residence.
After receiving this important information, Zuo Si immediately divided the transformed magic laboratory into several areas, and then used [Theosophy] to eliminate them one by one.
Eventually he succeeded in narrowing it down to the attic on the top floor.
With a second-level spell [Detecting Secret Doors], two third-level spells [Object Locating] and [Seeing Through Invisibility] were successfully released.
With almost no effort, Zuo Si took down a transparent sealed box in the seemingly empty air above his head.
Obviously, in order to better hide the phylactery, Asta not only fixed [Invisibility] on the box, but also placed it in a visual blind spot that was easily overlooked.
However, Zuo Si did not choose to open the box by himself. Instead, he used a [Knocking Technique] to get the magic lock, and then ordered the little devil following behind: "Go, open it."< br>
Hearing these words, the little devil immediately jumped up from the ground and screamed loudly: "Master! I didn't make a mistake this time! You can't let me die! That damn box, a You can tell by looking at it that a powerful magic trap has been set up.”
You don’t need to ask to know that this guy just secretly released a [Detection Magic], and you can see the dazzling arcane aura on the box.
"Relax, you're not really going to die." Zuo Si comforted him with a malicious smile.
"No! No! No! I don't want to experience that bad feeling anymore. You'd better summon a skeleton or something else to do such dangerous work. After all, I'm more useful than them."< br>
The little devil shook his head desperately and looked pitiful.
Since realizing its current state, it can no longer think of any resistance, just like when it faces those powerful high-level devils.
The character of bullying the weak and fearing the strong has been deeply rooted in the bones of this evil creature.
"In that case, I will give you a chance. Remember, if you dare to play any tricks again, or if you violate the rules, I promise to throw you into a jar full of liquid silver. Suffocated to death.”
Having said that, Zuo Si quickly completed the link in the "Book of the Dead" [Summoning the Undead].
I saw a summoning circle suddenly appearing on the ground out of thin air.
Following that, a human skeleton warrior holding a sharp blade walked out.
Because it is a low-level undead with little intelligence, it immediately walked to the box under the summoner's guidance and opened the lid of the box with an axe.
In an instant!
A powerful energy ray flew directly out of the box and hit the skeleton warrior's body.
The latter couldn't even hold on for a second before his whole body turned into a puddle of powder.
Six-ring magic [dissociation]!
Zuo Si raised his eyebrows in surprise.
You must know that setting this advanced magic into a trigger trap is not an easy task.
It seems that Asta has indeed spent a lot of money to protect his phylactery.
And any unlucky guy who is hit by the [Dissociation Technique], whether it is himself or the equipment on his body, will be completely broken down into powder in an instant.
Its astonishing lethality and destructive power, especially the psychological blow, is no less than the Nine Rings [Great Disintegration], which is known as "both the enemy and the enemy cry".
At the same time, the little devil on the side was trembling with fear after seeing what happened to the skeleton warrior.
If he hadn't tried so hard to pretend to be pitiful just now, he would be the one turning into powder now.
Just when the evil little thing was secretly rejoicing, Zuo Si once again summoned a second skeleton warrior to open the box and took out the phylactery inside, which exuded dazzling arcane light.
As expected, the moment the phylactery was taken out, an astonishing amount of negative energy erupted from the box.
If undead creatures were not immune to negative energy, this would at least kill or seriously injure a behemoth with tenacious vitality like a giant.
Successfully obtaining Asta's phylactery, Zuo Si didn't even hesitate. He immediately took out an adamantine magic war hammer that was enough to destroy it, then summoned an ogre and ordered it to use it. The hammer struck hard against the phylactery.
After a few blows, this gadget, which was as hard as fine gold, was finally smashed into pieces.
Yes!
The Lich's phylactery is actually not as easy to destroy as others think.
Especially when there is no high-level spellcaster, not only a powerful warrior is needed, but also a magic weapon with a hardness comparable to that of fine gold.
For most adventurers, this is a treasure that can be encountered but cannot be found.
In the end, accompanied by the ear-piercing scream of soul collapse, Asta finally disappeared from the world completely.
The astonishing magical energy bursting out from the phylactery was all absorbed by Tongtong.
Zuo Si, who completed the achievement of "killing the master" with his own hands, looked at the broken phylactery in his hand and said in a slightly emotional tone: "Farewell, dear mentor.
In fact, you stepped across the teleportation The door was a mistake when it came to this world, a huge mistake.
The magic network not only weakens and limits your power, but also makes you extremely uncomfortable with the new way of casting spells.
If it were in the floating city tower, I might be the loser."
No doubt about it!
The reason why Zuo Si was able to successfully kill his teacher was mainly because he relied on the card system of the Planeswalker to make a sudden attack without any warning.
Asta probably didn’t understand until the end how he could instantly release a large number of [Advanced Strikes] that were aimed at undead creatures and were extremely lethal without chanting any spells or making any spell-casting movements. Necromancer] and [Scorching Glory].
Maybe they mistakenly think it is a special ability given by God to the chosen ones.
As for making the Necromancer a creature card like the Dragon Lich, it is impossible to do it with Zuo Si's current planeswalker level.
What's more, Asta has the dignity and pride of a mage and will never become a puppet controlled by others just to survive.
In fact, it is very, very difficult to force a creature with a strong spirit of resistance and will into a card.
Especially for high-level undead such as lich, which do not require mind control, low-level undead control magic has a very limited effect on them, so destroying the phylactery naturally becomes the only option.
After recycling some materials from the broken life box, Zuo Si began to search for all valuable things in the house.
Especially the magic robes, staffs, rings, amulets, belts, boots of speed on Asta's corpse, and the [Scroll of Control over the Undead] in the scroll box...
You must know that what he wears are all high-end goods, many of which Zuo Si has been coveting for a long time.
In addition, the notes and books placed on the bookshelves and the treasures in the basement were also swept away.
Only those experimental equipment that cannot be moved are temporarily left behind.
Among these notes and books, Zuo Si suddenly discovered a spell book made by Asta himself. There were only less than forty spells in it, and the highest one only had seven rings.
You don’t need to ask to know that this once extremely powerful necromancer did not have enough time to convert and copy all the spells he mastered. He only converted a very small part.
If he is given another one to two years, it is still unclear who will win.
"Master, what are you going to do with this house?" the little devil asked cautiously.
Zuo Si touched his chin and thought for a moment, then immediately replied: "Well - just leave it here and don't move it.
Asta said that he joined a group called the Emerald Society. I'm a little interested in the secret spellcasting organization.
In addition, this magic laboratory is located in the slums and is also a good base. It may come in handy in the future.
By the way, you and the ogres stay here and guard, don't let those thieves get close. "
"Understood! I swear I won't let those damn little thieves steal anything. "The little devil vowed.
"Remember not to let the surrounding residents discover you. After all, ogres and devils are not protected by the law in Amn. Once exposed, guards, masked mages, and paladins from the Order of the Fiery Heart will soon be on their way. "
Zuo Si warned in a very serious tone.
"Don't worry, I will use invisibility to hide when necessary, and I will never be discovered. As for that silly big guy, it's better to let him hide in the basement. ”
The little devil glanced at the ogre with great contempt.
However, the latter's intelligence was too low and he did not realize that the other party was scolding him.
After everything was arranged in this way, Zuo Si sent a magical message and asked Davian and Huntington, who were staying in the house, to be responsible for carrying the loot.
As for himself, he returned the same way and continued to stay at the Tongguan Hotel to find out the news.
Due to the experience of this successful sneak attack without respecting martial ethics, Zuo Si suddenly realized that the lich was not as difficult to deal with as he thought.
As long as you are fast enough and release enough lethal spell cards in one breath before the opponent reacts, you can successfully "instantly kill" them.
Do not give the opponent a chance to activate protective spells or use magic items at all.
The only problem is that Zuo Si must ensure that he takes the lead.
Otherwise, once the [Spell Invalidation Barrier] is put on, there may not be any good solutions based on his current spellcasting level.
In addition, props such as [Ring of the Ram] that cause pure force field damage are much more effective than expected in battles between casters.
If used well, it can completely interrupt the opponent's most critical spellcasting, or even push it farther away, and then directly bombard it with fireballs.
