Chapter 27: Crisis is approaching (1)
Chapter 27 The crisis is approaching (1)
Green took a carriage back to Wilson Castle, and he didn't have to worry about the follow-up until he reached the gate of the castle, where he saw a charming lady and Vincent leading a group of servants to look at the avenue from a distance.
This woman is the wife of Viscount Paul, the mother of Vincent, a noble and kind lady who always treats Penny like her own daughter. This time I heard that Penny had an accident and was most worried about her.
After getting off the carriage, he greeted Grimmly for a while, and thanked Grimmly, and then the Viscountess took Penny directly back to the inner castle, while Grimm followed Vincent to the Viscount's study.
This is a huge room on the top floor of the castle. Except for the windows and doors, the rest of the walls are occupied by the bookshelves through the top, giving a sense of ancient and heavy.
When Green and Vincent came in, Viscount Paul was standing by the window looking at the courtyard of the castle. He must have seen the scene of Green and Penny returning by carriage just now.
"Thank you, Greene!" Viscount Paul said in a slow and solemn voice after a long while. Greene could hear the sincerity in his words, and could see that Viscount Paul was sincere towards Penny's niece, and there was a vague sense of debt in his feelings.
Green is not very interested in the hidden secrets of the giants, and even saving Penny this time is largely for the purpose of fighting monsters and upgrading.
After that, Green briefly explained the process of the exchange, but withheld some details, such as the existence of crusty ghouls, and the strength of the evil god's sacrifice, etc., and then went back to rest on the excuse that he had consumed too much magic power.
Watching Green leave, Viscount Paul was silent for a moment, then looked up at his son who had high hopes: "Vincent, what do you think?"
Vincent thought for two minutes before answering: "Green didn't tell the truth, at least he concealed something, and now I can't see through him more and more."
Viscount Paul suddenly burst into a smile, as if he heard a very funny joke: "Hahaha, my son, you actually tried to see through a magician!" Suddenly his face sank again, staring at Vincent: "Vincent Special, you remember, don't probe into the magician's heart, they are some monsters in human shells, and they will completely corrode their hearts with power far beyond human beings. Even if you have a good relationship with Green now, you must Be sure to keep it in mind, abide by your duties, draw a clear bottom line, and adhere to the principle of equal exchange, some people owe more than they can afford."
Vincent was a little stunned and didn't understand what his father meant by these words for a while, but he was very smart and sophisticated, he quickly reacted, nodded slightly and said, "Is my father reminding me to reposition Green's identity? He became a necromancer apprentice, and I really didn't consider him a magician... It's a pity that he is not my brother after all."
Viscount Paul nodded with satisfaction: "Green's talent is very good, and magicians are different from knights. Once you get started, there is almost no bottleneck, and it is very possible to become a formal magician in the future. This seems very beautiful, but you have to understand one thing, lion The enemy will also be a mighty lion, and we, as hounds clinging to the lion, cannot bear the wrath of another lion."
Vincent frowned and didn't speak for a long time...
After Green left, he didn't know that Vincent and his son were talking about him. After returning to their residence, they immediately entered the cemetery.
Three ghouls were killed in battle. Although the losses were not large, Green realized that the ghouls were good in combat, but their blood was too thin to be a MT in front of them. On the contrary, orthodox zombies with thick skin and blood could withstand it. This allowed Green to fine-tune the recruited units, reducing the proportion of ghouls and adding orthodox zombies.
This time, coupled with the refreshed arms in the wooden courtyard, Green's undead troops continued to expand, and the total force nearly doubled, including 27 gun skeleton soldiers, 5 zombies, 5 ghouls, and 1 hard-skinned ghoul. Healing a crusty ghoul's wounds costs a total of 140 psionics.
With the recruitment of undead creatures in the cemetery, Green's strength has improved a lot, which makes him very happy, but he doesn't know that on the other side, in the basement of an abandoned church located more than 50 miles outside of Langton City, an angry The voice is roaring: "What did you say! Failed again! Are those people in the Tower of Yin Spirits all brainless idiots? I have prepared everything for them, as long as they follow the steps and summon the Void Yin Spirits. , why is it so difficult? And the Holy Son of the Tower of Yin Spirits, who is a waste of brains and muscles, I heard that he died, who did it?"
An angry hoarse voice echoed in the empty basement, with a strong obsession and viciousness in the voice.
"Akarius...sir..." A stumbling voice sounded, from a fat middle-aged man who was shivering on his knees on the ground. He was so frightened that his flesh was shaking, but he didn't dare not answer the crazy roar. The question: "My lord, according to our investigation, the plan went very smoothly at first, but then the high priest of the Tower of the Shadows had a conflict with the Wilson family of Langton City, and sent someone to kidnap the daughter of Viscount Paul. , which led to the appearance of Viscount Paul's niece Penny Wilson... There are various indications that the summoning of the ghosts failed, and the death of the Holy Son in the tower of ghosts was related to this woman."
This obese middle-aged man named Snette Casper is a gangster in Zelensova, near Langton City, and a peripheral member of a terrorist organization. However, his intelligence network in Langton City was sloppy, only finding out about Penny but not Green's existence, and in the face of that mysterious existence, thinking of the arrogance and terror of the other party, he didn't dare to say anything.' I don't know the word ', so I just slammed my heart on Penny.
"Is the Wilson family in Langton City?" The mysterious voice sneered and said gloomily: "An ant-like existence dares to harm me, it seems that our blood eye has been dormant for too long, causing many people to forget the A time dominated by terror! Let the six witches go, and let the Wilson family perish in fear!"
…
Unbeknownst to Green, he rescued Penny and killed a son in the Tower of Shadows, which inadvertently affected the direction of the situation.
Wilson Castle belongs to Green's area. Green repaired the undead troops in the cemetery, and his consciousness returned to reality. He was in a good mood, and he did not practice meditation. He enjoyed a rare relaxation time while drinking black tea.
"Penny, this little girl, actually provoked the Holy Son of the Tower of Yin Spirits, but this battle is a good test. My current comprehensive combat power is almost equivalent to that of a senior mage apprentice." Green thought silently: "That The Holy Son of the Tower of Yin Spirits is very powerful, but he didn't seem to be very conscious when he appeared, like a madman who only knew how to attack and fight, otherwise it would be difficult for me to win in that situation. In the end, it was so smooth, except for me Good luck, the most important thing is to have an advanced unit that can play a decisive role at a critical time."
Of course, the so-called high-level arms are only Green's current vision and level. As a second-level elite monster, the hard-skinned ghouls are indeed regarded as high-level arms, but they are only limited to the apprentice level. The strength of ghouls is definitely not enough to see.
"It seems that the crux of the problem is back to raising psychic energy to upgrade the cemetery!" Green shook his head, knowing that he shouldn't be too hasty, his strength and cultivation progress are far beyond ordinary people, and with the assistance of the cemetery, in the future The prospects are infinite, there is no need to be impatient at all, but you should be more careful not to kill by tricks.
