Broad World

Chapter 393 The Dust Settled

After killing the beholder, Henry did not continue to attack, but stood still and stroked the huge amber gem on the top of the Archmage's staff. Because Shangra had stopped all spell-casting actions, it seemed that he was debating whether to hand over the phylactery. He didn't need to worry at all, anyway, the longer the delay, the better for him. After all, advanced protection spells usually have a short duration, and they will all fail in a few minutes.

Things in this world sometimes look so funny, the legendary lich who was full of confidence one second, will start thinking about surrendering in the next second. A few minutes ago, he planned to transform Henry into a lich and make him his servant, but now everything is reversed.

As the saying goes, the line between hunter and prey is so blurred that swapping places is common. Shangla has an absolute advantage in terms of spellcasting ability and the quantity and quality of his subordinates. But just because he underestimated the enemy a little bit, he was caught off guard by the positive energy storm in an instant, not only lost all his men, but even himself was seriously injured.

You must know that the caster's hands are second only to the vocal organs in importance, and all spellcasting actions must rely on them to complete. Unless you can reach the same level as a demilich, you can cast magic with only your soul, otherwise once you lose one of them, the speed will be halved, and the failure rate will increase along with it. Of course, a very small number of wonderful mages will train themselves to cast spells with their feet, so that they will not be helpless when this happens. But these are crooked ways, and real masters don't bother to waste time on them. After all, a person's energy is limited, and it is not enough to just learn magic and conduct experiments, so there is no time to exercise his feet.

After thinking about it for a while, Shangra said: "I can give you the phylactery of Lei Yin, and at the same time, I can also take out countless treasures, beautiful women, magic items, and even (slaves) with special bloodlines. .There is only one requirement. That is in exchange for my freedom."

Obviously, he was not willing to be controlled by others, and tried to bargain with other things. After all, the phylactery is the most fundamental thing for a lich to maintain its immortality. Mastering this is tantamount to pinching the opponent's life gate, and it can be completely destroyed at any time as long as it is willing. No one wants to spend their days in fear. Even the undead are no exception.

"Will you agree to the conditions I just said? So please don't insult our IQ. There are only two choices. Either give up resistance and tell me where the phylactery is hidden, or wait to be sealed in a box Get up. To show my sincerity, let me show you something first." After finishing speaking, Henry took out a mithril box emitting positive energy from his dimensional bag. At the same time, there was a sneer on his face. "See? This box can not only counteract the self-healing ability of the Lich, but also allow the undead to enjoy the feeling of needle pricks all the time. So it's best not to carry out this kind of boring temptation, my patience Strength has not been very good."

Liches are basically a group of unbelieving realists. When the ultimatum was issued, Shangra fell silent again. He now fully understands that the other party's action is aimed at him. Not only have careful plans and arrangements, but even the preparations are very adequate. But it's not like I don't have a chance to turn things around, after all, the place where the phylactery is stored is quite dangerous, as long as I do some tricks secretly, maybe everyone will never return.

After he figured it out, he made a 180-degree turn in his attitude, lowered his head respectfully and said, "The phylactery of Lei Yin and I are both stored in an underground secret room in the Kalin Desert. An army of creatures is on guard at all times."  …

"Very wise choice. Remove all the protective magic on your body now. After all, I need a relatively safe environment to repair the portal, so..." Henry said and looked back at Lei Yin, who only had a skull left , the meaning of which is self-evident. Even if one hand is broken, a lich is a lich after all, so it's not a problem if you can't beat it and escape.

After Shangla cursed the little fox in his heart. Honestly began to lift the protection one by one. At the last moment when the "Stone Skin Technique" disappeared, Fei De, who had been hiding around, suddenly emerged from the shadows. She stabbed out the dagger violently, the sharp blade penetrated the dry skin and smoothly inserted into the crevice of the tibia, followed by a strong twist of the wrist, the head and body of the Lich were separated.

"Nice job!" Henry praised with a smile, then picked up the lich's head from the ground and threw it directly into the box. He has long seen that Shang Ge has no good intentions at all. There may not be any traps waiting for him in that underground secret room. Maybe the other masters of symbols are hiding here.

Fei De wagged his tail playfully and asked, "What are you going to do with this guy? Are you really going to the Karin Desert to find the Phylactery?"

"I don't have this plan for the time being. Maybe wait for a while, anyway, as long as these two liches are alive, they can't be resurrected."

Henry said and picked up the cloak made of black dragon skin from the ground. Most of the magic items on Shangra's body were destroyed in the positive energy storm, only the cloak and robe remained. Needless to say, these two magic items must be quite powerful. After simple identification, he got specific information.

—————————————

Black Dragon Cloak of Protection:

Shangla once killed two giant dragons in his early years, and the skin of one of them was made into this cloak. It is blessed with a lot of powerful magic, which not only makes the wearer immune to the attacks of ordinary weapons, but also has a very high resistance to various magic.

Equipment capacity:

immune to common weapons

Immune to hold magic

Strong acid resistance increased by 90%

Increases magic resistance by 30%

"Haha! Look at what I found, a full body armor in good condition, and a protective charm helmet. Damn, these bone frames are really rich. The crossbow, two-handed sword, shield, and one-handed sword are all enchanted. , even arrows." Korgan shouted excitedly, while continuing to toss and turn on the corpse.

Viconia sneered and picked up the robe on the ground and said to the dwarf: "Don't just focus on weapons and armor, those things together are not worth as much as this robe of the evil archmage." As a A dark elf, she is quite sensitive to things like magic, so she recognized this magic item at a glance.

After changing his cloak, Henry nodded with a smile. "That's right, including the ones in my hand, I have obtained two robes of the evil archmage."

"I only care about how valuable this thing is? Could it be more expensive than a piece of exquisite full body armor?" Korgan asked with a puzzled expression. In his mind, the robes sewn from these few pieces of rags are worth about a thousand gold coins at most, and they are not comparable to metal weapons and armor.

Without changing his face, Henry said a number that almost caused the dwarf warrior's heart to arrest: "At least 30,000 gold coins... each piece..."

"Thirty thousand!!!! Or every piece!!! Just a few rags?!! It's a robbery!" Kogan couldn't speak with excitement.

"Calm down, my good dwarf, these are not some rags. Each archmage's robe is woven with special magical silk thread, and its value can be sold for more than ten thousand gold coins per kilogram, and the output is extremely high." Limited. Coupled with various powerful enchantments, 30,000 gold coins is already considered very low." Henry explained patiently. He didn't intend to sell these two precious robes. After all, magic items of this level were very limited, so it would be good to store them even if they were not needed for the time being.

Korgan sat on the ground and couldn't help sighing. "Hey, well, since the materials are so expensive, it makes sense that the price should be higher. But these mages are really rich, and we can give priority to them when we choose targets in the future."

"Don't worry, in my mind, the priority of mages is second only to dragons." Henry jokingly grabbed all the souls floating in the air and stuffed them into gems . He didn't want to leak the news because of a small mistake, and in the end he would end up with the magic talisman.

As for the phylactery of Shangra and Lei Yin, let's wait until the demilich Kangus is subdued. With his current strength, it may be no problem to face one or two masters of symbols, but if there are more than three, he may only be able to barely resist for a while. Once there are more than five, he may even have difficulty escaping. After all, these powerful undead creatures are all legendary spellcasters, and after a wave of chain spells, the magician's staff will explode immediately.

After collecting all the loot and installing the heads of the two liches, everyone began to check the damage of the teleportation device. After all, this is the only way to leave. If it can't be repaired well, I'm afraid I can only use powerful spells to forcibly destroy the magic runes on the ground and walls, because they block all the teleportation magic of the miniature demiplane.

If it wasn't a last resort, Henry would never do this. You must know that these walls and floors are permeated with a lot of mithril and precious stones, plus exquisitely crafted magic runes, the cost of one square meter is at least five thousand gold coins. There are two circular rooms in the entire demiplane, and the total area is several hundred square meters, which means that once it is destroyed, it is equivalent to spilling two and a half million gold coins into the sea.

He had never smashed such a precious thing, at least not his own. Shangra did not build magic walls and grounds for no reason, its biggest function is to ensure safety. The prohibition of teleportation means that any creature, including gods, cannot enter without the exact coordinates and teleportation key.

It can be said that this place is basically an absolutely safe refuge, specially used to avoid the pursuit of powerful enemies like gods, devil dukes, and devil lords. As for the entrance in the bridge area, it should be specially designed to facilitate the entry and exit of important subordinates. It seems that the Gu Zhi team guarding the mansion is indeed related to the magic talisman, maybe it is Shang Gra's direct subordinate.
