Chapter 456 I Accept Your Heart
The bad feeling in the mage's heart reached its peak, and he finally realized that he had entered a trap.

His teammates were already unreliable, he triggered a portal prop without hesitation, and his figure disappeared from the spot.

But the next moment, his figure returned to the original place again.

"You can't leave here without my permission."

Tang Sen said casually, raised his hand, and patted the other party.

There was a crisp sound in the void, and the magic shield around the mage was smashed by brute force.

Then Tang Sen lightly drew his sword and pierced the opponent's chest.

"You—" the mage opened his mouth wide. He had no room to resist this series of actions. He never thought that his death would come so easily.

No. Wait!

Why doesn't it hurt?
He lowered his head and saw that the long sword clearly pierced his body.

"Don't worry, you are still useful." Tang Sen said calmly, cut out the blade of the sword, and a square crystal floated out. Inside the crystal was a beating heart.

Seeing this scene, Milos couldn't help but tremble all over, and couldn't help touching his chest.

"I'll accept your heart." Tang Sen raised his hand to hold the heart.

"What did you do to me?" The mage lifted his collar and saw that there was no scar on his chest.

But immediately, he felt a sharp pain. He raised his head with a distorted face, and saw Tang Sen was slowly clenching his heart tightly.

"Obvious things, my friend." Tang Sen relaxed his fingers and looked at the pale mage who collapsed on the ground: "I control your life and death."

He stepped forward and looked down at the other party condescendingly: "Tell me, are you willing to give your life for the revival of Searle?"

The mage gritted his teeth, looked at Milos who had been standing beside him, and then bowed his head deeply towards Tang Sen.

"Your will is my will."

The mages who grew up in the environment like the red-robed mage do not have the quality of loyalty. From the moment they become mage apprentices, all the mages of Sale will firmly engrave the quality of betrayal in their hearts.

In comparison, Milos seems tough. After all, he is a priest.

Tang Sen also didn't want to waste time trying to plant the Mark of the Dark Lord on the other party. A mage with seven rings was nothing more than a mage with little use value.

"Now, let's change places and continue our topic." Tang Sen put his heart away casually.

"Under the tavern just now is the base where Lyle and I rest and hide." Milos said proactively: "The captain went to meet the vice president, but he hasn't come back yet."

"Your captain? Is that the nine-ring mage of the protection system who appeared in Neverwinter?" Tang Sen asked.

"That's right." Milos nodded: "In addition, we have another team member who is a rogue, but died in a conflict with Searle some time ago."

"A person born in Serre will still die? Didn't you transform him into an undead creature?" Tang Sen raised his eyebrows.

Milos hesitated, and said: "His body was taken a step ahead by Searle."

Tang Sen didn't care about this, he just asked, "Is your captain... a lich?"

"Not yet." This time it was actually a mage named Lyle who answered, obviously he had accepted his situation and hoped to be able to show himself in front of Tang Sen: "The captain doesn't want to wait until he has full confidence Performing the Lich Transformation Ceremony, his lifespan has not come to an end."

He said quickly:

"Your Excellency must know that although ordinary high-level spellcasters can also obtain the secret of transformation by making a deal with the demon."

"However, the weaker one's magic power is, the less knowledge one possesses, which means the lower the success rate of transforming the Lich Ritual"

Tang Sen nodded. The reason why liches are rare is also because of this. There are not a few spellcasters in the world who want to have eternal life to study the mysteries of magic, and most of them can choose the method of transforming into a lich. kind.

But most of the spellcasters failed. Although they were determined to give up their bodies and morality, contact evil gods, kill intelligent creatures by cruel means, and make sacrifices for their souls, but after they drank the venom and sacrifice The moment they used the transfiguration potion of the blood of the pinnacle, their bodies died, but their souls failed to enter the phylactery as they wished.

In Faerun, the place with the largest number of liches is Serre. This country is very good at transforming lich rituals because of its deep knowledge of necromancy spells and its admiration for the existence of undead creatures, even if it is the nine rings. Most of the red-robed mages have successfully transformed themselves into liches.

And they are often not forced to transform because their lifespan is approaching, but actively do so in pursuit of greater power.

For example, the female disciple of Sazastan who appeared in Neverwinter was obviously very young before she became a lich.

For the time being, Tang Sen has no way to completely kill a lich, unless his divination can be powerful enough to predict the exact location of a phylactery hidden by a lich. Obviously, this is unlikely.

The divination ability endowed by the potion system has no effect on the spellcasters of the high ring.

Hearing the news that the other party was not a lich, Tang Sen fell into deep thought.

Originally, his plan was only to inquire about the news from the Searle Revival Society through Milos, but regarding the secrets of Szastan, it may not be so easy to get in touch with Milos' level.

If you can control a captain, the difficulty will be greatly reduced.

The only thing to worry about is that the other party is a genuine nine-ring mage.

Don't think it's so easy for Tang Sen to deal with a seven-ring mage, but nine-ring mages are completely different from seven-ring mages. Seven-ring spells are just the threshold for high-level spells. Nine-ring mage, has begun to approach the profound meaning of controlling magic.

Although in terms of combat, the Nine-ring mage is weaker than the adult black dragon, and far inferior to the Ballow demon, but as a spellcaster, the mage has much more means.

It is also far more difficult to deal with than simple monsters.

This is also the reason why Tang Sen was unwilling to confront the Nine Rings mage even if he had Smaug.

Of course, the mage's method also depends on what magic he has prepared that day. As a nine-ring mage of the protection system, although the opponent can definitely not only use the spells of the protection system, but in the daily spell slot, the nine-ring confinement The anti-magic force field of Jujutsu and Eight Rings must be prepared.
