Chapter 23 The Order of the Bones
Lawn Guerrero suddenly shouted to Locke: "Locke, behind you!"
"Be careful!"
At that time, the zombie group had completely separated the wizard seedlings on the wizard ship. Most of the wizard seedlings spent all their time studying, so they did not have much practical experience.
Only dark wizards will cultivate the actual combat abilities of wizard seedlings from the very beginning, rather than starting from learning ancient languages.
At this time, when Locke turned around, he saw a zombie with blue skin and only white eyes rushing towards him, hitting his chest with one head, and the huge impact force knocked him from one side to the other, trying to knock him off the deck of the wizard's ship into the sea.
"Klass~" At the critical moment, Locke forcibly chanted the spell and activated the vine hand. The five branches of the Mandrake vine wrapped around his right hand emerged from the cuff of his coat like a vine python.
Two branches were inserted into the deck of the wizard's ship, fixing his body.
Three branches, along his arms, wrapped around the zombie holding him, slightly separating him from him, and then wrapped around his head. With a "squeaking" sound, the zombie's head and body were separated by him.
Locke had not yet breathed a sigh of relief when he saw the headless zombie, who still had not lost the ability to move. His right hand stretched towards his neck like an iron pincer.
I am simply stupid. ” Locke responded. "This thing is originally a corpse controlled by necromancy. What's the use of just taking off its head." 』
Locke took a look at the navy blue orb gold ring he wore on the thumb, index finger and middle finger of his right hand. There were three navy blue orbs in it. He had 30 more mana points than the average third-class wizard apprentice.
Now is a dangerous time, naturally we cannot cherish mana.
Locke recited the spell twice in succession and used the Hand of Vine twice in a very short period of time. The Mandrake Vine as the carrier of the spell was equivalent to obtaining the mana of the Hand of Vine twice in a very short period of time.
This temporarily enhances the Mandrake Vine's mobility.
The five branches of the Mandrake vine turned into a giant hand, grabbing the body of the zombie in front of him, and then separated him from himself and distanced himself.
Then, with a "stuck" sound, the zombie's entire body was caught by the mandrake vines, and its body suffered certain fractures.
The limbs and spine were twisted and fractured, and the ability to move was lost.
Locke breathed a sigh of relief, but saw that the deck was full of zombies, and these zombies were besieging the wizard seedlings.
It was not a deadly attack.
But many wizard seedlings have been pushed into the sea by zombies and kidnapped by the dark wizards in the black mist in the sky.
Now, there are more cyan-skinned zombies rushing towards him. There are at least five of them as far as he can see.
Sweat streaked on Locke's forehead, "These zombies were dropped by the dark wizards, maybe they were dropped by official wizards." 』
They are numerous, their bodies are stiff but invulnerable. Each one of them is a strong man. It takes a lot of effort for me to deal with one of them. 』
A zombie attacking Locke was held by Raun Guerrero, and the silver cross sword struck him in the back. The zombie screamed in agony, and its back was melting rapidly.
Laoun Guerrero waved the two-handed cross sword in his hand, like a rotating whirlwind, and continuously slashed the back of the zombie blocking the front more than ten times. Soon the zombie fell to the ground, and the runes on its body gradually melted.
Lawn Guerrero came to Locke's side and said: "In this situation, it is difficult for one person to protect himself, let's work together."
Locke and him were back to back, facing the siege of the remaining four zombies together. "It makes sense."
"Laun, thank you."
Locke glanced at the silver cross sword in Lawn's hand that glowed with silver. This sword should be the magical item mentioned in the book.
A masterpiece of the alchemy school, a treasure that can best increase the combat effectiveness of wizard apprentices before they become official wizards.
Every magical item is the crystallization of alchemy.
It's just that Corfu doesn't have a single magical item.
The first time Locke saw this kind of thing was from Raoun Guerrero, a prince from Schleswig Island.
It seems that there is still a big gap between Corfu and Schleswig Island in the mortal world.
Lauen relied on the demonized items in his hands, coupled with his physique as a knight, to fight back and forth with the two zombies, and Locke also used the total amount of mana beyond the ordinary wizard apprentice to control the vine hand, turning the Mandela vine into a giant vine hand, constantly hammering the two zombies, making the two zombies unable to get close to him.
Locke glanced at the glowing silver sword in Raun's hand, "Laun, the sword in your hand is very lethal to zombies."
Laoun opened a hole in the chest of a zombie with his sword. The zombie's wound immediately began to rot, and it quickly disintegrated under the silver light of the cross sword.
Hum, my sword is a magic item, and there is a trick of the enchantment school [Secondary Undead Resistance Barrier] on it, which is specifically designed to restrain undead creatures and negative energy spells, so the effect is so good.”
Unfortunately, there are too many of them, they are powerful and fast. Even if I have this sword, it will be difficult to clear them."
Locke suddenly knelt down on one knee and squatted on the ground of the deck, ignoring the two zombies rushing towards him and a new zombie. "Then let's change our thinking and the optimal solution will appear."
He chanted a spell and punched the ground with his right hand. Suddenly, five branches of the Mandrake vine penetrated into the wooden floor. Then, they suddenly emerged from the surrounding wooden floor and were tied to the left legs of five nearby zombies.
The five zombies were immediately controlled by the hands of the vines and were forcibly held in place. No matter how they jumped, they could not break away from Locke's Mandela vines.
In the battle, Locke became more and more comfortable and proficient in using the vine hand trick.
Locke said to Lawn: "Now, Lawn, chop them to death."
Lawn laughed after being stunned for a moment. "Okay, that's much easier. I'll take one sword at a time."
He raised his silver sword and inserted it directly into the chest of a zombie controlled by the vine hands. The zombie roared like a beast.
Then, the runes on this zombie quickly dimmed one by one, and it lost its ability to move.
Laun smiled after hacking five zombies to death. "Locke, if that's the case, if you and my two wizard apprentices join forces, you don't have to be afraid of these zombies."
h "I think the wizard mentor on the ship will rescue us soon."
Lauen turned around and saw Locke's face was extremely serious, and he was stunned for a moment. "Locke, what's wrong with you?"
Locke pointed in front of him and said: "Look around..."
At that time, Locke and Lawn were surrounded by at least thirty zombies.
This is an absolute quantitative difference!
The dense number was enough to make most of the third-class wizard apprentices lose the idea of resisting.
Laun, swallowed. "This..."
A ray of black mist fell from the sky and hit the deck of the wizard's ship like a meteor. Out of the black mist came a witch wearing black leather high heels and a black robe, with a whole piece of fox fur on the shawl.
Hung on the chest of this witch is a pentagram-shaped badge. Within the pentagram badge is a white bone skull, and in the two eye sockets of the white bone skull, there is a pentagram pattern.
That badge is very weird.
witch Barbara smiled and said: "Two little guys, we [Order of Bones] have taken a fancy to you. One of you has very practical experience, and the other has grown rapidly and has decisive judgment. This is exactly the talent we [Order of Bones] need."
"So, I...witch Barbara Vayne, hereby invite you to give up resistance and join us [Order of the Bones]. You two, if you follow those hypocrites, you will achieve nothing. The dark world is the final destination for all of you."
