Volume 2 Before the Disaster Chapter 11: Mad Lich
Marvin has high agility, so he runs quite fast.
But he didn't expect that the young man who looked thin could run so fast.
And looking at the way he ran away, he seemed quite skilled.
Marvin paid attention for a moment before he realized that this guy had unknowingly cast a [Swiftness] on himself.
In this era when the magic pool of the universe has not collapsed, wizards are great... They are obviously a profession with short legs, and they can cast any status spell only a little slower than me.
Behind the two men, a large number of skeletal war horses appeared. These skeletal war horses were so fierce that the entire hill was shaking under their hooves!
Above the warhorse, there was a large group of evil spirits flying madly.
Seeing these evil spirits, Marvin's face turned green.
These vengeful spirits were not the low-level ones he had encountered before, but intelligent high-level ones. If Marvin fought them alone, he could barely defeat them with diluted holy water, but if they came in groups like this... Marvin could only run wildly!
"What on earth did you do to cause these undead to riot like this?"
Marvin yelled at the young man in great anger.
I suffered a completely unprovoked disaster.
This kind of scene must be very rare on the Hill of Despair.
Undead wizards naturally have a strong desire for domination, and it is rare that they cannot control their own undead. This kind of undead riot is extremely rare!
The young man ran after Marvin with great effort, panting and saying:
"Huh? I didn't do anything?"
"I just went to confess my feelings!"
…
Confession?
Marvin's brain short-circuited a little.
Even though he was always quick-witted, he still couldn't figure out what the confession had to do with the undead riot! ?
The skeleton warhorse is very fast. The two men are both human and have limited endurance. If they keep running like this, they will be caught up sooner or later!
“What should I do?” Marvin’s mind raced.
No matter how experienced he was, he never expected to encounter an Undead riot in the Hills of Despair!
Hiding?
Where can you hide in this vast hill? And there are too many skeleton horses. You might get trampled wherever you hide!
get rid of?
It was even more impossible! The vengeful spirits in the sky were clearly staring at the two of them. They couldn't escape even if they had wings!
"It can't be that tragic, right?"
"You didn't hand over the dragon power to the Black Butcher, so you want to drink it here?"
It was useless for Ma Wenxin to scold the young man. In the current situation, there seemed to be no solution except to take the power of the dragon to increase agility and obtain the trait of [Glimpses]!
But it’s really too luxurious!
Reluctantly, he pulled out a bottle from the conch.
Who knew that at this moment, the young man suddenly grabbed Marvin and said, "Follow me!"
Marvin staggered and almost fell down because of him!
This guy has such strong power!
Marvin was shocked and angry and asked, "What on earth do you want to do?"
The young man panted, pointed to a grave not far away and said, "We've arrived at my home."
"They can't get in."
"Follow me, it's safe."
After that, he dragged Marvin towards the grave without saying a word.
Marvin was helpless. This guy looked frail, but for some reason he was incredibly strong. Marvin couldn't even break free!
The two men jumped into the not very deep grave one after another . Suddenly, a black light curtain fell and covered the grave!
Knock knock knock!
Knock knock knock!
The sound of horse hooves came from above the black curtain, and a large number of skeletal war horses gathered above the two men's heads.
More high-level vengeful spirits began to try to impact this layer of darkness.
However, although this layer of black curtain looks very thin, it is actually extremely solid!
"Oh my god!" The young man sat down on the ground, put his hands on his waist and said, "I'm so tired..."
“…”
Marvin remained silent.
He still hasn't figured out what's going on?
"Is this grave your home?"
"Also, what are these undead spirits all about?"
he asks.
The young man slapped his head and recited a spell. Marvin felt his body lighten and then he sank down!
…
The young man who caused the undead to riot on the Hill of Despair was named Federer. Although he looked young, he was actually over 40 years old.
His home was indeed just below the tomb, in a relatively empty underground cave.
The person who could live in such a place was undoubtedly a necromancer. But this guy was a bit weird.
Generally speaking, necromancers don't like normal people, but Marvin didn't feel any malice from Federer. This guy is simply an outlier among necromancers. Not only is he very familiar with people, but he is also very good at chatting - even to the point of being a chatterbox.
While dodging the undead riot overhead, Marvin patiently listened to Federer's complaints.
But the truth of the matter left Marvin dumbfounded.
"You mean, you fell in love with a female lich? Wait... aren't liches genderless?"
"Okay, she was a beautiful woman? I understand what you mean... so you confessed your feelings?"
"It seems that your confession failed, and then you angered her, so she used the undead army to deal with you? So it wasn't an undead riot just now? But someone was controlling it?"
Marvin thought this was ridiculous.
A scene where a necromancer falls in love with a lich... isn't that common in the whole of Fenan?
etc……
A flash of inspiration suddenly came to Marvin’s mind!
"Necromancer... Federer... Lich!"
Could it be that this guy in front of him is the mad lich Federer who will become famous in the Hill of Despair in the future?
The pervert who made every player who entered the Hill of Despair suffer a great loss?
Doesn’t it look like that?
Marvin recalled the players' descriptions of the crazy lich Federer, which was totally inconsistent with the talkative wizard in front of him... Wait, I seem to have heard someone mention the talkative aspect.
In his previous life, although Marvin was born in Gem Bay, he mostly roamed in the north of Gem Bay and rarely set foot in the Despair Hills in the south.
He had some impression of the story about the mad lich, but he couldn't remember it clearly.
…
"Damn it... Even though I failed this time, I will definitely succeed next time!"
Federer said to himself.
He made tea for Marvin, but Marvin didn't dare to drink it. God knows what the necromancer likes to add to the tea.
"I spent a lot of money to buy 999 roses from a profiteer in the north... Why doesn't Sasha like them?"
Federer sat there in great distress, lost in thought, completely ignoring Marvin.
Sasha?
Marvin's eyes lit up.
He remembered!
Shasha was the name of the lich, and before she transformed into a lich, she was said to be a very beautiful human woman.
A little bit of memory flashed through Marvin's mind, and he finally remembered the history of the Mad Lich...
But he suddenly felt a little sad.
He stood up, walked over and patted Federer on the shoulder: "Hey, don't worry, try a different approach next time, maybe you can succeed."
…
The story of the Mad Lich is kind of funny, but very sad.
Federer and Sasha are good friends. They love each other. They were both wizard apprentices.
But due to a special accident, Sasha turned into a lich.
A young and beautiful girl suddenly becomes a skeleton. No matter who it is, they will not be able to bear it and their temper will change drastically.
Although she had great magical powers, she had lost her human body forever. She became irritable and alienated herself from others.
There was only one person who didn't abandon her, and that was Federer.
Federer followed Sasha to the Hill of Despair and advanced himself to become a necromancer.
For a long time, Sasha ignored Federer, and whenever Federer tried to get close to her, she would use her powerful magic to drive him away.
But she wouldn't hurt him.
It was also because of this that the skeleton war horses, which could have caught up earlier, were obviously a step slower.
This is the witch controlling the back.
She didn't want the person she loved to see her in such a miserable state, so she chose to keep him at a distance.
In the game, Federer never gave up pursuing Sasha, even after she turned into a lich.
After repeated failures, he felt that the reason why Sasha refused to meet him was because he was a human being and the other party was a lich.
So he prayed to a high-level lich to transform himself into a lich so that he could be with Shasha.
His conversion ritual was successful.
But the ending is a bit sad: Federer, who turned into a lich, went to find Sasha, but saw the girl who was as beautiful as a flower back then.
It turns out that while Federer was trying his best to transform himself into a lich, the female lich also wanted to restore her human body and be with Federer.
He succeeded, and so did she. Through the resurrection technique, she successfully restored her body.
But at this time, he was no longer human.
The positions of both sides have been reversed.
This was simply the most bitter joke that God had played on them.
The day the two met, Federer went crazy.
