Lord of Arcane

Chapter 607 Mott's progress is one size fits all

Of course, Xia Duo did not reject this kind of follower relationship similar to a lifelong subordinate. He patted Aiwa on the upper arm to show his closeness, and then asked about the situation in the barracks: "How many soldiers have learned to use magic scrolls now?" ?”

"Including me, there are 16 people in total."

"There are only so few people?!" Xia Duo was a little surprised.

He admitted that he was a little neglected here, but he was really dissatisfied with this progress. In his opinion, using magic scrolls is very simple, and even many adventurers can figure it out by themselves based on other people's descriptions.

On his side, there are high-level rogues like Aiwa personally training, and only a dozen people have learned it so far. It is really slow, and it is still far from the magic army he expected!
"Keep training!"

Xia Duo couldn't say the extra words. Afterwards, he and Aiwa told Gibb to contact Layton to recruit people from the [Regional Resettlement Department] to expand the territorial guards, and then left the barracks.

……

Linshui Village, cemetery.

As soon as he took the first step into the gate of the cemetery, Xia Duo felt that the environment here was completely different from the outside world. It was quiet and deserted, and people couldn't help but want to sleep here forever.

Just as he took the first step, Xia Duo backed out again, not because of the peaceful environment rendered by the Saint of Death, but because he noticed an unusual flow of negative energy in the cemetery.

Although Deathly Saints is related to negative energy, it is not negative energy itself. Generally speaking, there is no negative energy in the cemetery, because one of the duties of the cemetery guards is to regularly clean up negative energy.

In fact, the peaceful environment rendered by the Deathly Hallows can itself expel negative energy.

If there are only a few and there are still regularities, then Xia Duo doesn't think there is anything wrong, because he ordered Mott to study undead creatures before, trying to create undead goblins to open up territories.

Since you want to study, you will definitely deal with negative energy, and it is normal to have less leakage.

But now, the negative energies in the cemetery seemed a little chaotic, and he didn't know what Mott had done. He subconsciously felt that Mott's experiment might be out of control, and he suddenly became nervous.

If low-level mages or priests have any means to scare Xia Duo, the only possibility is probably negative energy. Although it may not kill him, this thing is like shit, even if it touches Even the slightest bit is disgusting.

In fact, as long as any living thing is contaminated with negative energy, it means that its lifespan will be shortened, it's just a matter of how much.If possible, Xia Duo hopes not to touch any negative energy.

Since he had just stepped into the cemetery with one foot, Xia Duo quickly summoned positive energy to wash his whole body. Although he didn't have much research on positive energy, this level of relief and neutralization can still be achieved.

In fact, with that amount of negative energy, it might not be as much as Xia Duo staying up all night, and it is more of a psychological effect.

After some cleaning, Xia Duo stood outside the gate of the cemetery, and performed a [phantom sound technique] to transmit his voice to the innermost part of the cemetery, Mott's cabin, "Mott, come out and meet me!"

After the first sound, there was no response from Mott's hut. Just as Xia Duo was preparing for the second sound, the door of the hut opened, and Mott in a black robe walked out slowly, his face looked extremely pale, without any trace Bloody, and his mental state doesn't seem to be very good.

After coming over, Mott saluted and asked, "The lord is here to ask about the situation of the undead goblin?"

Without waiting for Xia Duo to answer, he said on his own, "I have recently gained a new understanding of the Deathly Hallows, and I have already completed half of what my lord asked."

Hearing that half of his mission has been completed, and Mott's performance is still normal, Xia Duo first asked about the situation of the undead goblin, "Which half has been completed?"

Speaking of this, Mott's eyes became a little brighter, "My lord, I have transformed into an undead goblin who can really work!"

"Really?!" Xia Duo was a little surprised.

The last time I came to check on the progress, the undead goblin transformed by Mott was just a weak skeleton, not to mention working, even walking was unsteady.

And the most important point is that the undead goblin didn't have normal intelligence at that time. Even Mott, the maker, couldn't easily direct it. To make it move, he even had to tie a rope, like walking a dog.

It's a pity that Mott's research results came too late, and now there are nearly 2000 people in the territory. According to Mott's words, this kind of undead goblin who can work has not yet been mass-produced. Yes, I don't know how long it will take.

And with more and more people on the territory, if there are a lot of undead creatures in the territory, this is not a good thing. If it spreads to Severton, it may be said that the Lord of the Great Xia in the South is a necromancer .

And necromancers have no human rights in Netheril, it can almost be said that everyone shouts and beats them.

He only studies negative energy occasionally, and he will not be regarded as a necromancer. The sign of becoming a necromancer is to create a large number of undead creatures. This is what Xia Duo learned later.

And as far as he knew, there had always been necromancers in Netheril, but usually they were very careful to hide themselves, and once there were a lot of deaths there, they would flock to them.

After all, the more intelligent a life is, the easier it is to transform into a powerful undead creature.

Before Savile led a wave of orcs, many necromancers came to fish in troubled waters, and Xia Duo even personally killed a necromancer who had lost the ability to cast spells.

And this is actually not bad, some necromancers will directly attack villages and towns, massacre civilians to create undead creatures, mass production, as long as there is a high-quality goods, it will make him even more obsessed with slaughtering humans.

It is naturally impossible for Xia Duo to allow himself to be known as a necromancer. Even if he has a little bit of a necromancer, he may become a weakness for others to attack one day.

Although in his opinion, there is no right or wrong in technology itself, and it is people who distinguish between right and wrong, but Xiaduo also agrees with Netheril's opposition to creating a large number of undead creatures.

Even if it's just out of recognition of the conservative approach formed by Netheril's current inability to control the situation.

This is like a big killer on the earth. Some countries can legally own it, and some countries are even guilty of researching it. Negative energy has a strong ability to infect, and undead creatures are easy to flood.

In the situation where there is no way to control the situation, it is indeed more appropriate to directly block it.

Although there is a drow threat right now, Xia Duo is not going to let Mott continue to study. There are many ways to deal with the crisis, and this method is not worthwhile.

Personally, at worst, you can hide in Severton.
