Chapter 491 Encounter (Second Monthly Pass Asking)
After diving north along the Solna Valley for a few minutes, Lucian pulled Natasha to change direction, using advanced flying techniques to fly eastward, and removing a faint glow from Natasha's body.
"Do you plan to attract the attention of the demigod lich to us, so that Aunt Camille can leave Husum City smoothly and go to the eastern desert?" Natasha did not complain about Lucian's actions without prior warning, but accepted it calmly and relievedly, and was keenly aware of his purpose, which was a tacit understanding formed several times in life and death.
As far as Natasha knew, in the eastern desert, there was a secret contact point of the Magic Council, which could use the voice teleportation array to return messages to the control area across the sea.
Once they know Lucian's whereabouts and the exact location and coordinates, Fernando and Hathaway can return to the main material world first, and then open another door to the other world directly to the northern mountains of the Eldor Peninsula, although it will take about a day, but it is also many times faster than crossing the sea and desert in this xenoplane space with limited flight speed.
And if you are familiar with the specific location of the semi-solidified space barrier, it will only take less than two days for a heavenly knight to rush from Husum City to the contact location in the eastern desert, if you are not familiar with it, it will be extended to three to four days, unfortunately, Camille belongs to the latter.
In the high-speed flight, the wind howled, and the chill was cold, Lucian smiled and nodded, and said through the spiritual connection between the two: "If the demigod lich resurrects and returns to Husum City without any trace of us, then he will definitely look for other survivors, and will inevitably take Aunt Camille, who is close to us, as the main target, at that time, he will not only know our true purpose, let us wait for the teacher and Granny Hathaway's hopes of rescue to fail, but also use Aunt Camille to threaten you, so, We want to strangle hidden dangers before they appear."
"Yes, if the demigod lich can 'lock' our whereabouts, they will definitely chase after us in a hurry so as not to lose the opportunity, so that Aunt Camille can get enough time to recover as long as she hides well."
"At that time, when she leaves Husum City, in this world where the spiritual force field of the legendary peak is suppressed within three hundred meters, it will be very difficult for the demigod lich to go back and find her again. Moreover, in less than a day, Aunt Camille will be able to rush back to the mountains in the northeast and enter the control of His Excellency Valenhill, and the demigod lich will not be able to chase after it unless he wants to sweep the entire church alone."
Natasha flew in mid-air like a sharp arrow, helping Lucian finish his words, and by the way, telling him the approximate location of Valenhill so that he wouldn't crash into it.
This time, he couldn't use the method of provoking Valenhill to fight the demigod lich to let the two of them escape, because Valenhill had a way to inform the church, once he found out about this, Lucian would face the Pope, saints, cardinals, and holy knights to chase and intercept him, which was ten thousand times more dangerous than it is now.
"Well, so for this day, we must firmly contain the demigod lich." Lucian said solemnly.
Natasha raised her left eyebrow: "Aren't you worried that Aunt Camille will tell Your Excellency Valenhill about you?"
"How can you consider everything in this dangerous time, and as long as seven days have passed, Aetna has absorbed the fragments, even if I face the Pope, I don't have no chance to survive, besides, I believe in you." Lucian replied seriously.
The corners of Natasha's mouth curled up, and she said with a smile: "So, I told Aunt Camille that Silvermoon Atna only needs four days to absorb the fragments, if she hadn't betrayed you and sent the news to the area controlled by the Magic Council, whether Etna recovered or not, I think Your Excellency the Storm Lord and Granny Hathaway will definitely come to you."
"And if she betrays you, when the Pope and the others arrive, almost three days have passed. Thinking that he is facing Silver Moon Etna, who is about to return to the god-like level, His Majesty the Pope may not be willing to take risks to search without the divine descendant technique."
Lucian turned his head sideways, looked Natasha up and down, and exclaimed: "I always thought you liked to be straightforward when fighting and handling things, but I didn't expect you to grasp people's hearts so accurately. However, Aunt Camille has been with you for so many years, and you actually cheated on her, so you are not afraid that she will be sad?"
Natasha chuckled: "Obviously you lied to me, so what I told Aunt Camille was fake news, how could I lie as an upright and honest knight?"
After the joke, her expression became solemn: "Although I prefer to rely on my own strength to solve things, living in aristocratic circles and being the heir of the Grand Duke, I was deceived and betrayed by my cousin Verdi. I believe that Aunt Camille will not betray me, but I am not sure if she will betray you, maybe in her opinion, sending you to the stake and freeing me from the danger of being chased by demigod lichs is the best love for me."
"I can't put our safety on 'I want to believe.'"
At this moment, Lucian seemed to see a real Grand Duchess Woman, decisive, cautious, and not blinded by feelings to judge.
Of course, this only means not being blinded by judgment, not choosing the path you want from an emotional point of view at all.
Lucian laughed softly: "At this point, we are no longer able to control other things, so we can only do our own thing. We alternate between the north and east directions, so that the demigod lich thinks we are taking an irregular route to the eastern desert."
As soon as he finished saying this sentence in the psychic connection, Lucian's left hand spread out a layer of solidified black, white, and gray again, enveloping his entire body, so the advanced flying technique failed, and he fell heavily, and the strange and inexplicable aura of the necromancer world emanated at the same time, like a torch in the dark night, which could be "seen" by others from a distance, as if breaking through the suppression of space.
Natasha dived in, hugged Lucian, and then pulled out "Pale Justice" and slashed at the monotonous color.
The long sword was like a defeat, this time it actually failed to cut it directly, Natasha frowned slightly, and continued to slash, after three full strokes, the layer of black, white and gray was shattered and converged, and was suppressed again.
"What's going on?" Natasha asked about the change with concern.
Lucian said calmly: "Don't worry, the resistance will occasionally be more intense, and it is estimated that when it is almost completely absorbed, he will have a very long counterattack."
"When Etna recovers, you have to ask Him for a reward, otherwise wouldn't you have risked so much in vain?" Natasha said half-jokingly.
Lucian's face showed a hint of doubt: "Actually, it's a little rewarded, every time I freeze like this, I have a feeling that the world around me has stopped working, but my soul can continue to grow without hindrance under the action of the cognitive world. In the first time, I seemed to have directly crossed two years of growth, and now my soul has reached the level of seven rings, and when I analyze a seven-ring magic, I can try to improve it."
"You already have the soul level of the seven rings? I was only one level above you and was equaled!" Natasha asked in surprise, and then made a look of disappointment and frustration, "This is not fair, they are all being hunted by demigod lichs, you have such a big improvement, but I have nothing, after this incident, you must repay me well!"
"As long as it's not an angel costume or something like that, I can agree." Lucian smiled and exposed Natasha's hidden thoughts.
Natasha raised her eyebrows and said "coldly": "Then you can get up and fly by yourself."
It wasn't until this time that Lucian realized that he had been being held by Natasha, so he left with a smile and performed "Advanced Flying Techniques".
…………
Half a day later, in a small town near the Northern Mountains, Lucian and Natasha hid in a mud hut and gasped.
"Why is the uncontrolled attack of necromancer fragments irregular? Otherwise, we can still calculate the time to hide and act, unlike now, after the demigod lich sent his army of necromancer servants to disperse and hunt, the changes in his whereabouts slowly decreased, and the range of activities began to be compressed, and we had to guard against sneak attacks and stalking at all times."
Natasha stared sharply at Lucian's left hand, it was this harmful guy! But I heard that it was a blonde "girl" with a delicate and beautiful appearance, well, it seems to be bearable. Also, Lucian is always involved in great danger, which is really unsettling!
Lucian smiled bitterly: "You said it was uncontrollable, where can you find a pattern?"
In the past hour, the two have encountered two waves of different types of high-level necromancers, relying on the legendary attributes of the undead with "Pale Justice" to kill and break away without delay, otherwise they would have been caught up by the demigod lich Kangus.
Natasha was just about to joke and ease the tense atmosphere, when suddenly, Lucian's body became monotonous to disgusting black, white and gray.
Her expression was alert and solemn, and the pale justice slashed out diagonally and landed on Lucian, causing that layer of boring color to collapse.
"Fortunately, it wasn't so violent this time." As soon as the thought came to mind, Natasha rushed forward, hugged Lucian, who had not yet recovered, and rolled out of the mud.
With a loud bang, the wall behind the mud house was directly pierced by a boulder, staggered a few times, and collapsed with a bang, raising a heavy layer of dust.
Natasha's long sword was raised, blocking Lucian behind her, and saw the group of green rotten monsters.
This was a group of two or three tall giant apes, but without skin, directly exposing their disgusting and rotten green muscles, each holding a boulder in their hands.
"A group of 'Decay Marauders' who don't even have a high level dare to attack?" Natasha sneered, her feet stiffened, and her figure flashed around the "Decay Marauders" again and again, and then retreated to the place.
Snapping, the continuous sound of falling to the ground sounded, and the group of "rotten plunderers" quickly turned into pus and disappeared.
"Let's go! There must be a high-level or even stronger undead as the leader!" Lucian reminded, and he didn't want to implicate the innocent townspeople.
The two of them, blessed with magic such as "Acceleration", quickly entered the mountain and changed direction aimlessly.
After a few minutes, Natasha suddenly jumped up and slashed at the tree with a sword, and a rotten plunder fell to the ground.
"Haven't gotten rid of it yet?" Natasha looked at Lucian solemnly.
Lucian looked behind him and frowned slightly: "It seems that this high-level undead is a lurking stalking type, and we must find it and kill it as soon as possible, otherwise we will have to face the demigod lich."
It has been changed.
There are still a few hours left, and if you don't vote for the monthly pass, it will be wasted, so vote for me~
