Chapter 2 The Wizard of the Nine Rings
The picture that appeared in my mind was interrupted by the sound of swallowing one after another.
Following the sound of swallowing, Luo Wei found that the five civilian zombies that were originally standing were already kneeling on his face, eating the intestines of the undead magic apprentice like a beast.
Losing the control of the undead magic apprentice, the civilian zombies are left with their hungry and thirsty stomachs and their instinct to choose people to eat.
Sniffing the blood coming to his face and looking at the intestines caught by civilian zombies, Luo Wei’s first reaction was not disgusting, but... it smells so good! I want to eat it!
"Ho ho, ho...roar!"
Luo Wei let out a terrible cry, although he originally wanted to say: "Get out! Get out of here!"
Maybe he understood Luo Wei's corpse words and scolded him, or maybe he was afraid that Luo Wei was a zombie mage who was stronger than him. The four civilian zombies temporarily retreated to the side with blood stains on their hands and faces.
But in the end, the strong zombie just stood up but did not retreat. It roared at Luo Wei with a provocative and demonstration smell through the body of the undead magic apprentice.
Just as the undead magic apprentice who has broken his stomach and died to the point of death, zombies below the lord level can actually be regarded as "brainless idiots" by human standards, but even brainless idiots have different strengths and class.
Therefore, this strong civilian zombie obviously does not think it should obey Luo Wei's will.
The raging anger suddenly ignited in Luo Wei's heart, because of this provocative demonstration, he absolutely could not accept it!
Luo Wei, whose eyes were filled with dark green light due to his anger, raised his right hand and pointed at the strong civilian zombie five-fingered Ji Zhang.
The next moment, the strong civilian zombie shook his body twice and fell straight on the body of the undead magic apprentice. A small ball of green gas was pulled out from its seven orifices, and then it floated straight into Luo Wei's Ji Zhang's right hand as if it was being pulled.
Soul Fire!
This is a soul fire that is more delicious than flesh and blood!
Almost before consciousness reacted, Luo Wei opened his mouth and bit the soul fire tightly!
As the sound of sucking, the green soul fire was sucked into the stomach.
The desire for words and tongues was filled with the greatest satisfaction, and it rose from the deepest part of the soul, making Luo Wei feel so happy that he was about to moan.
After the pleasure finally passed, Luo Wei suddenly woke up with a sensation - Damn! What did I do just now?
Luo Wei was frightened because since he smelled the fragrance of flesh and blood, it was not his own will that dominated him to do various actions, but his instinct - the strong zombie instinct for the reverent! The zombie's devourer instinct!
If you accept traveling through time to become a zombie, it does not mean that Luo Wei will accept the instinct drive like ordinary zombies to eat raw flesh and blood of the living!
Luo Wei fell into silence. He didn't want to be a cannibal zombie that everyone shouted to beat, but he also wanted to have the power to protect himself.
But what is the source of zombies' power?
It is very simple that the power of zombies comes from two ways - either eating the flesh and blood of the living, or devouring the soul fire of the undead.
This is a dilemma. No matter which one you choose, it will make people feel uncomfortable. But Luo Wei knows that he must make a choice, otherwise as long as he encounters the next undead magic apprentice, his fate will be left to either become a corpse servant or a sacrifice.
So in the end, Luo Wei made a not too difficult decision. He decided to hunt and devour the soul fire of the same zombie until he became the zombie lord.
Zombies above the zombie lord rank have no problems whether they speak or eat cooked food. Even if they are mixed in the human world, as long as they do not encounter those holy warriors who eliminate demons and guard gods, it will be difficult for ordinary people to discover them. Of course, there is a prerequisite for mixing among humans that they must be smart enough.
This "help reminder" naturally does not belong to Luo Wei himself, but to the residual memory of the zombie's body.
This also made Luo Wei feel more and more that the zombie body he occupied should have been a necromancer, not an Ice Element Affinity during his lifetime.
But this inference was only a little bubbling in Rove's soul and was thrown into the deep Mariana Trench in the far-away plane, because he had more important things to deal with now-
"At least, hunting soul fires like zombies is not as disgusting as flesh and blood of raw people."
Looking down at the overlapping bodies of magic apprentices and the corpses of strong civilian zombies, Luo Wei, who made a hoo, said to himself this way.
In fact, Luo Wei did not say another important reason for making this decision. This reason is: the feeling of devouring soul fire is really... very good!
Since the decision had been made, Luo Wei no longer stayed in front of the two corpses stacked together, but instead walked towards one side of the cemetery with a staggering footstep.
When Luo Wei walked away, he was afraid of Luo Wei's scolding just now, so the four civilian zombies who were forced to stop eating were pounced on both sides of the "food" that was about to be cold as quickly as possible.
The sound of wolf-drinking sounds one after another sounded again.
By the time the four civilian zombies ended their food one after another, only half of the corpses of the undead magic apprentice were left, while the originally rotten bodies of the four civilian zombies were more or less recovered, but the newly grown tangled grey-white carrion on their bodies could be described as shocking.
At this time, while the civilian zombies were eating, Luo Wei, who was always far away, came back. He let out a loud roar at the four civilian zombies who had eaten and drunk.
The four civilian zombies obediently turned around and headed towards the northwest, then walked out of the cemetery with a swaying pace. They could not resist Luo Wei's roaring order, because Luo Wei used the undead witchcraft - the Dark Law on them.
Yes, Luo Wei walked away on purpose just now. He didn't want to see the disgusting scenes of zombies eating raw flesh and blood.
But during the time he walked away, Luo Wei did not do anything idle, but carefully studied the generous gift of the Undead Magic Apprentice - the Undead Magic Note.
Luo Wei originally wanted to focus on studying the refining of the corpse servant, but what attracted most of his attention was the sacrifice of the undead.
"As long as the seven newly controlled undead creatures are sent into the sacrifice array to sacrifice them to the Lord of Decay, you will definitely receive various "rewards" given by the Lord of Decay. The sacrificer may even directly possess the strength of the Great Dead Magician because of the reward!"
The note of the Undead Magic Apprentice wrote it with confidence.
Luo Wei was very moved, but he couldn't perform the undead sacrifice now because the magic power that was not much in his body had almost been consumed.
So at this moment, Luo Wei could only rely on the "Dark Law Order" that he had just learned and consumed little magic power, and drove four ordinary civilian zombies out of the cemetery. He needed to find a safer hiding place.
...
About half an hour after Luo Wei, who drove the civilian zombies, walked out of the cemetery, four night walkers wearing black cloaks walked into the cemetery from the direction of entering the mountain and easily discovered the corpse of the chewed magic apprentice of the undead and the corpse of the strong civilian zombie who was overthrown next to him.
"It's an undead magic apprentice. It seems that he wants to secretly awaken the undead in the cemetery, but he seems to have been attacked... well, a sneak attack. So, after trying hard to kill the zombie next to him, he was eaten up by the other zombies who rushed forward."
A night walker with a slender figure with pointed ears on both sides of the hood, after a while of careful examination at the crime scene, he reached this conclusion in a crisp voice.
"It seems like another undead magician attacked his colleague? This is difficult. I am just a shield warrior who is good at melee..."
Another thick bass sounded, and the speaker should not be old.
"In this case, let's give up this mission!" The third voice sounded, a duck voice with incomplete voice change: "Look, what am I saying, what am I saying? The undead plague never breaks out by itself. There is definitely a undead magician hidden in that mine. We are all newbies on the mission for the first time. I don't want to die in a damn country mine, and I can't rest in peace after death and become a dirty and smelly zombie."
"Don't worry about Hag, what you worry about will never happen, so Ona, just continue to investigate quickly! Have you guys forgotten, I am a specialist in the undead mage... the second ring holy light magician!"
Finally, the night walker spoke, but was a young female voice full of masculinity in her words.
"Although that's the case...well, it's almost dawn, so why don't we go to the mine village to investigate and wait until noon to make further plans. I heard that the undead at noon is the weakest."
The duck voice Hag, whose voice was not completely changed, spoke again and suggested.
"I support it. Anyway, those undead cannot escape. We will be more confident when we accumulate energy and then kill them."
The thick bass said at the first time.
"So well, let's go to the village to rest until noon, and then rushed into the Nefrey mine in one go, killing all the zombies...!"
The young female voice, full of masculinity, finally chose to accept the opinions of her companions.
"I guess you should come and check out this tombstone, guys."
The night walker named Ofina squatted in front of the incomplete tombstone and said to her companions without looking back.
"Even if everyone betrays you, at least there are still people here who remember that you were once - our pride. Grey Calendar 2743 - Grey Calendar 2770... Why don't the name of the tomb owner?"
The mottled words on the epitaph fell into the sight of the night walkers, so the duck voice Hag said loudly.
"The epitaph in front is not important, the important thing is behind." Onine, who had turned to the back of the tombstone, stroked the nine-layer snake-shaped ring with the bottom of the weavernach pattern that would be very difficult to find if she didn't touch it with her own hands, and said: "Here are burials of the necromancers with nine stairs at the top of the tombstone!"
"Hiss-this, this is impossible! The Nine-Ring Necromancer is a great figure who can summon the bone dragon. Any country is a noble person that the king must greet in person. How could he sleep in such a country cemetery? This is a joke, it is definitely a clumsy joke! Well... Also, even if it is a Nine-Ring Necromancer, more than thirty years have been enough for him to become a bone-slag!"
The duck-voiced Hagg gasped and then let out a series of exclamations.
"I'm sorry, even this Nine-Ring Necromancer is rotten like a bone scum." Fiona, who stood up, pointed to the empty tomb behind the tombstone, and spoke out the investigation information that no one of the four-man mercenary team wanted to hear: "Now, he has been resurrected into a powerful... Nine-Ring Skeleton Mage."
So, after a long silence, the masculinity-filled young female voice finally spoke: "Whether it is a joke or a fact, our original plan must be stopped, and then we will immediately return to Barnaham. Hopefully, there are top mercenaries who can kill the Nine-Ring Skeleton Mage and are willing to take over this mission to let the Nine-Ring Zombie Mage whose body has been desecrated will fall asleep forever."
"Even if someone takes over, it will be at least seven days later, so I hate the closed mountainous areas far away from the city the most."
