Volume 6: Fighting for the World Chapter 215 Angel Invasion
Although the 300 players who attended the meeting were the elites among the 30,000 or so Undead Wizards in the world, only a few of them had dealt with the dead old man before, probably no more than 30 or 50 people. The rest had only met him once when they first died and changed their jobs, and they no longer had the qualifications. Only a super strong person like me was able to complete those difficult tasks and get so many opportunities to meet him. Seeing many Undead Wizards listening to the dead old man's words, they raised their heads and chests, their eyes were bright, and they were full of energy and high spirits. They looked excited that their strength was recognized and their self-esteem and vanity were satisfied. I felt a little incredible. It was just a few empty words. Why was it so? Even if the dead old man's demeanor this time was quite solemn, not as casual as in a private meeting, there was not much special in my eyes. Those few words felt exaggerated. Thinking of his usual virtues, I really couldn't express it on my face like many participants did, and I had a corresponding sense of crisis. But thinking about it the other way around, it might be that I am too familiar with the old man, and I am not surprised by him anymore. I have developed a certain immunity to him. Maybe the other players' performance is normal. After all, being able to stand here already represents the recognition of the big boss. Combined with those words, it fully shows the importance he attaches to them. It's like being selected as an advanced or promoted through unremitting efforts in a company, and being personally received and praised by the boss. It's almost the same mentality. The old man actually played this trick, inciting the masses and deceiving people from the beginning, but I don't know what the task is that is worth such a big fight. Judging from the posture and tone, it seems that it is not just about the three hundred undead wizards attending the meeting, but a general mobilization of undead wizards?
Seeing the old man standing in the front desk and acting cool, he seemed to enjoy the admiring looks from many necromancers, and he didn't intend to introduce the specific tasks. I couldn't hold back any longer, "Lord Death, what is the task that requires so many necromancers?" He's not a beauty, and I can't bear to see him put on a show.
The old man restrained his artificial expression and glanced at me casually, revealing a little dissatisfaction in his eyes, as if he was blaming me for disturbing his interest. Fortunately, I was on guard and didn't want to offend him, so as not to find a chance to make things difficult for me behind my back. I put on an appearance of being eager to show off my skills. I just dealt with it, so he shouldn't have taken it to heart and left any sequelae.
He then slowly scanned the entire room, and felt the old man's gaze. The few necromancers who were whispering to each other immediately straightened up and dared not say a word. The hall returned to silence, and there was no sound at all. He scanned them one by one. The old man had not spoken, and the silence seemed to have lasted too long. The atmosphere seemed to be depressing again, and even I was affected. I felt a little heavy, and I couldn't help but restrain my originally relaxed, nonchalant, and even somewhat playful mood, and stared at the old man.
"You may have heard of it, and a few people have even experienced it personally. We, the necromancers, accepted the commission of Lucifer, the Lord of the 'Devil Prison' and the King of the Fallen, to help them complete the 'demonization' task, invade 'Heaven', and choose an angel of light to use the 'Demon Thorn' to demonize. Relying on the outstanding performance of the necromancers who were fortunate enough to be selected, the 'demonization' task was basically successfully completed, causing the angel of light to suffer certain losses. In addition, the 'Light Extinguishment Operation' completed some time ago in order to rebuild the 'Castle of Mind' brought even greater shocks to 'Heaven'. Michael, the Lord of 'Heaven' and the Angel of God, naturally would not be willing to suffer losses. While retaliating against the 'Devil Prison', he also sent angels to invade the 'Dead Space', intending to carry out a large-scale destruction and interfere with the development of our necromancers."
Angels actually invaded the "Dead Space". After the initial shock, the crowd became excited and many undead wizards started clamoring.
"Kill these bastards! They dared to come to our base camp to cause trouble. They really don't know how to live or die."
"That's right. We will mobilize our men to launch a siege. We will tire those people to death even if we are exhausted."
"You are so arrogant. You don't take us necromancers seriously. Do you think we are just decorations? We will kill them one by one. We must kill all the invading birdmen."
We, the necromancers who have completed the "demonization" mission, seemed very calm, waiting for the dead old man to make his next statement. Since Michael dared to send angels to invade the "dead space", he must have made full preparations and was quite sure that he could cause us considerable losses. He would definitely not be easily dealt with by us, otherwise he would not have been able to suppress the dead old man and Lucifer for so long. The "dead space" and "devil prison" could barely compete with "heaven" together.
The old man frowned in dissatisfaction and raised his voice. "You have to be calm and don't think the enemy is too stupid. Michael will not send easy-to-deal subordinates to sacrifice in vain and easily weaken his divine power. The one who invaded the 'Dead Soul Space' this time is Almetti, one of the four holy angels. He has a strength beyond level ten and equivalent to the first level of the holy beast, but he is more intelligent than those holy beasts. He has obtained the divine power specially bestowed by Michael and restrained the attached 'body protection holy light'. As long as he does not fight, he will not show up. If he just flies on the road, the nearby undead will not be able to sense the light power contained in him, and can only be discovered through visual observation. It is easier to hide alone, and Almetti's strength is super strong. It is difficult to stop him whether attacking or retreating. If you want to kill him, your numerous low-level undead subordinates are of little use at all, and you can't even touch his shadow."
All the necromancers shut up immediately. Michael was really ruthless. He sent out his trump card, the Holy Angel Almity. He was a holy beast. He needed a magic formation to trap him. It took hundreds of top players to kill him. Even if they fought head-on, it would not be easy to defeat him. Moreover, if the situation was unfavorable, he would definitely choose to break through and escape. He could fly and was fast, so he was the most difficult enemy to deal with.
"Lord Death, what is the specific mission of Almighty to invade the 'Dead Space'? Is it to kill the undead creatures, or is it to hunt down our necromancers directly?" Qiu Shui Changtian is indeed an experienced and senior player. He asked the most critical question, which made me worried. The "Dead Space" is not like the "paradise" where only angels of light live and players of light are not allowed to set foot. There are both undead creatures and undead wizards who exist in the state of soul. If Almighty targets us, with his strength at the level of a holy beast, let alone those ordinary undead wizards, even I, the "world's best master", will only die if I encounter him. Our undead wizards will lose 5% of their mental power limit if they die in the "Dead Space", and if the pet dies in battle and resurrects, it will also lose 3%, which is a relatively large loss. Who knows where Almighty will appear, and we may encounter him. If this is true, let alone joining forces to encircle and suppress him, I am afraid we dare not enter the "Dead Space" again.
"Don't worry. We will not kill your souls, which will incur the wrath of heaven and people. As long as you and your pets do not take the initiative to attack Almati, there will be no danger even if we dispatch the undead who have signed the 'Soul Contract' to fight. Almati's mission is to eliminate those powerful undead creatures in the 'Dead Space', especially those that are beyond the ninth level, to reduce the number of undead creatures you can conquer in the future and indirectly weaken your strength. If he kills too many powerful undead creatures, especially those with limited numbers and long growth cycles, it will have a greater impact on your future strength and you will be at a disadvantage in the struggle with the Church of Light. Almati will lurk in the 'Dead Space' for twelve days before Michael breaks through the void and takes him back to 'Heaven'. If we let his actions go and ignore them, it may bring disaster to those powerful undead races or individuals. We have no choice but to take action and kill him as soon as possible to maintain the normal development order of the 'Dead Space' and your interests."
This is fine. As long as they don't attack us actively, they can deal with the Holy Angel. However, the "Dead Space" is so large, and if Almetti deliberately hides, it may not be easy to find his traces. In addition, he is a strong air combat, and the land combat troops are not very useful. At present, the only ones who are suitable and can serve as the main force in the battle are the bone dragons. And the undead wizards who have subdued bone dragons, even the lowest-level green bone dragons, are only thirty or fifty people . Some of them have only subdued a few. Of course, they can also gather a larger-scale eighth-level horror dragon knight army, but they are much inferior to bone dragons in terms of combat power and mobility, and their role should be limited. I really don't know how to kill the holy beast-level Holy Angel. No matter how loud the slogan is, it will only affect the future. In the eyes of many necromancers, it may not be as important as the immediate benefits. Even I have concerns in this regard. Now is the critical moment. Don't spend twelve days struggling and finally fail to kill El Metti. It would be a waste of time and it would delay my earning of qualification points, which would affect my plan to advance to the ninth-level profession. This would be a loss.
As if he had seen through our thoughts, the old man immediately put on a relaxed expression, "Almati has no fixed range of activities and can move freely in the 'Dead Space'. It is far beyond the ability of thirty or fifty undead wizards to deal with him, and even relying on your three hundred elites is not enough. You must fully mobilize the masses, use your influence and connections, mobilize more or even all undead wizards to participate, dispatch manpower, and set up a net in a wide area to explore Almati's whereabouts. As long as he emits the 'body-protecting holy light' when fighting, he will be attacked by the undead creatures even if he is far away. I can sense it, so that you can grasp the specific location of Almaiti in time and take corresponding actions. Although I cannot directly participate in the battle due to the rules, I will use my divine power to play the role of the communication center within these twelve days, giving all of you undead wizards who are willing to participate in this operation the ability to freely communicate over long distances, so that you can contact them in time, report the situation, study countermeasures, and strive to kill Almaiti as soon as possible, or at least cling to him and contain his actions to prevent him from endangering those undead who are beyond the ninth level, and protect them for your use in the future. "
"Lord Death, besides these, are there any other rewards? It seems that only the dozens of strongest necromancers are qualified to fight Almighty. The role of most of us is just to detect his whereabouts. We have almost no chance and ability to participate in the battle. Isn't it equivalent to making contributions to their top masters?" The person who asked this question was obviously an necromancer with relatively weak strength who was not qualified to fight Almighty head-on. I'm afraid this would also be the voice of most necromancers.
"The invasion of the Holy Angel into the 'Dead Space' endangers the interests of all the Undead wizards. This action to resist foreign aggression is a professional task, and of course there will be corresponding rewards. In order to send the holy beast-level Almetti into the 'Dead Space', suppress the 'body-protecting holy light' attached to his body, and enable him to lurk in the 'Dead Space' for twelve days, Michael consumed a lot of divine power. As long as we disrupt Almetti's action to kill the undead strongman and prevent him from achieving much success, it can be considered an advantage. If Almetti can be killed, to resurrect a holy beast-level holy angel, it will definitely consume more of Michael's divine power, which will weaken his strength and naturally have a certain impact on the final ultimate battle between light and darkness. It can be said to be an unprecedented victory, and its significance and effect are by no means comparable to killing a few ordinary eight-winged holy angels. For this reason, we have also formulated corresponding reward plans based on different possible results. The wide coverage and richness are not comparable to ordinary professional tasks."
"If you only contain Almati's actions and prevent him from killing too many powerful undead warriors, it will not have much impact on the quality of the undead subordinates you undead wizards will conquer in the future. If the initial purpose of the task is achieved, then the first reward plan will be implemented. Different merit rewards will be given according to the contribution made by each undead wizard participating in the action, such as discovering and promptly reporting Almati's whereabouts, or directly attacking Almati and disrupting his actions. If the accumulated merit value reaches the standard for giving pseudo-artifact rewards, you can specify a pseudo-artifact within the reward range to exchange. At the same time, you can also earn different skill points according to your contribution. When you are promoted to the ninth-level profession, you can obtain more powerful undead magic that exceeds the level of the promotion task you have completed."
"If Almati is killed and the mission is successfully completed, the second reward plan will be implemented based on the number of powerful undead warriors who died at his hands before. Similarly, according to the different contributions made by each undead wizard participating in the action, corresponding merit rewards will be given, and there will be a chance to obtain the desired pseudo-artifact and earn corresponding skill points. Of course, because of the more satisfactory result, the reward will definitely be richer than the first one. At the same time, the undead wizard who made a direct contribution to the action of killing Almati - not only participating in the battle to kill Almati, but also providing accurate information for the final killing operation and other direct assistance. This is something that every undead wizard is capable of doing, and will receive a more generous reward. When you advance to the next profession, in addition to the basic mental power given by the completed promotion tasks, you can also get a certain amount of additional basic mental power attribute improvement. In particular, the necromancer who caused the most damage to Al Mity and dealt him the final blow will receive double super value rewards in terms of basic attribute values and professional skills. In addition, twelve necromancers who provided the most valuable information about Al Mity during these days will be selected and can also receive additional basic mental power rewards when they advance to the next profession as a recognition and commendation of their positive attitude and behavior. In short, no matter how strong or weak you are, your efforts will never be wasted. As long as you are willing to work hard and invest, you will have the opportunity to earn more and richer rewards. "
It really is a big investment. After the second profession is promoted to level 6, it is difficult to further improve. Challenging "law enforcers" is something that only a few undead royal families or powerful controllers can do. To obtain more basic mental power, for most undead wizards, they can only rely on completing more difficult undead wizard promotion tasks. Now, as long as you make a direct or active contribution in the action of killing Almadi, you can get additional basic mental power rewards. Such an opportunity is so rare that we can't help but be tempted. Especially for undead wizards of my level who have the most hope of killing Almadi, it may help me more easily to improve the basic mental power attribute to the highest ninth layer of gold when I am promoted to the tenth level profession, which means a higher success rate of "soul contract" and the power of "undead summoning", which is absolutely not to be given up. I believe that such rewards will also be a lot of or even huge temptations for other undead wizards, and no one will be willing to give up.
"Finally, I'll remind you that without the support of other undead wizards, it is impossible for the 300 of you present to find, surround, and kill them. If you want to accomplish the arduous task of killing the intruder, the Holy Angel Almity, you must unite and mobilize more undead wizards, cooperate with each other, and take the route of people's war to have a chance."
