Constructing-Style Wizard

Chapter 80 80. Signs of Riot

In a critical moment, Li Nuo's thinking was as quick as lightning.

The spell blueprint quickly condensed in his mind.

A pale bone knife stabbed out from the shadows, pointing directly at his chest.

The tip of the knife pierced through the military uniform, cut through the armor, and was about to plunge into Li Nuo's heart.

At this moment, the spell blueprint in Li Nuo's mind took shape, and an invisible wave of energy emanated from him.

This energy drills into the bone knife, flows into the hand of the knife holder along the blade and handle.

The sharp bone knife stopped immediately, and after two seconds, the bone knife slowly retracted, giving up the prey in front of it.

Li Nuo let out a long sigh of relief, somewhat rejoicing in his heart that he survived the catastrophe.

"Huh~ Fortunately, I have always been good at drawing out the blueprint of spells. It only took 0.1 second to release the spell I learned the day before yesterday."

A few paragraphs of text came to mind.

[System message: You consumed 1 energy point and successfully activated the death spell "Soul Bribery". 】

[You choose the undead creature in front of you as a bribe. 】

[You consume 0.5 soul strength as a bribe. 】

["Soul Bribery" launched successfully! 】

[The enemy will not actively attack you in the next 3 minutes. 】

【Notice! If you show the desire to attack, the immunity state brought by "soul bribe" will end prematurely. 】

The skill "Soul Bribery" comes from "The Ten Commandments of Martyrdom", and it was obtained by Li Nuo by spending more than a dozen energy points.

As long as it is a mindless undead creature, no matter how powerful it is, it will use this skill. It is very suitable for leapfrogging against high-strength undead creatures.

When Li Nuo got this skill, he knew it would save him again and again.

Don't you just want soul strength?

give give give.

On his personal panel, there are more than 50 points of soul strength lying on it.

As long as he doesn't encounter intelligent undead troops, he is still confident that he can survive from powerful enemies.

Li Nuo's heartbeat gradually calmed down.

He glanced up and down at the Undead Ripper in front of him.

Now he finally knew why no one had ever caught the Ripper.

Because this undead creature can do magic!

And it's magic that has an invisibility effect!

Just a second ago, it appeared in front of Li Nuo out of thin air, stabbing out the bone knife in his hand.

Its appearance was similar to what MI3 had speculated.

Small in stature, holds a blade, and has a tubular mouth.

Overall, it looks like an upright anteater.

It has hair, carrion and blood clots on its body, as well as black earthworm-like sutures. It is obviously a suture-like undead creature.

But it is different from ordinary stitch monsters in that it has a large number of undead runes distributed on its dirty hair.

At the moment when Li Nuo carefully observed the Undead Ripper, this visceral-eating undead creature entered an invisible state.

The necromantic runes on its body emitted a hazy black light.

The black light changed from strong to weak, and quickly dimmed. The Ripper disappeared without a trace in this light change.

Li Nuo threw the deconstruction technique before the opponent became invisible.

[System message: You are trying to deconstruct the "Dead Ripper". 】

[It is expected to consume 230 energy points to make the deconstruction complete to 100%. 】

[You currently have 10 energy points. Do you confirm deconstruction? 】

【Notice! You have lost your target and cannot be deconstructed temporarily. 】

"As long as you have 230 energy points, you can completely deconstruct it. It's not bad, it's still cheap."

Li Nuo nodded slowly, thinking more in his mind.

When he has enough energy in the future, he must find a chance to deconstruct the Ripper.

Not for anything else, just for the necromantic runes on the opponent's hair.

If the speculation is correct, the Undead Eviscer relies on the necromantic rune to enter the invisible state.

After getting these undead runes, can I use the rune stick to enchant clothes?

Clothes are enchanted, will it have an invisible effect?

Is it possible to hide people and clothes together, or is it only the clothes that are invisible...

Li Nuo is very curious, but now is not a good time for in-depth research.

As he walked up the stairs, he threw out a lot of deconstruction.

The information fed back by the system showed that none of the deconstruction techniques he threw had encountered the invisible Undead Ripper.

I don't know if it's because the Undead Eviscer has left this place, or because the deconstruction technique can't use invisible things as the target of deconstruction.

Li Nuo didn't stop there, there was still a frost skeleton mage below.

This undead, who can control the power of frost, has a mind in all likelihood, so he won't take the "soul bribery" trick.

In order not to face it head-on, Li Nuo had to quicken his pace, and he couldn't waste time here.

He stepped on the stagnant water, splashed pieces of water, and jumped over the remains of the soldiers who died tragically.

He glanced at the soldiers who died tragically, and without stopping, he directly stepped over the blood-stained steps and continued on his way.

…

Temporary camp on the ground floor of the cemetery.

Several soldiers ran out from different stairwells and hurried to the tent of the commander, Lieutenant Serley.

As soon as they entered the tent, they rushed to report the situation.

"Report! Sir! A large number of magic traps were found in the No. 3 stairwell! The reconnaissance team was attacked by skeleton archers during the process of clearing the traps. One soldier was killed and two soldiers were seriously injured. Call for support!"

"Report! There is serious water accumulation in the stairwell No. 2. The underground river has flooded one-third of the stairway. The water pump is urgently needed!"

"Report! The No. 1 stairwell is also seriously flooded, and the water contains highly toxic substances! The entire stairwell is only the corridor close to the ground, which has not been flooded by poisonous water! The reconnaissance team has now withdrawn!"

Lieutenant Serey sat behind the podium with his arms folded, in front of him was the three-dimensional sand table of tomb No. 717.

While the scouts report their reconnaissance work, the guards will put down the flags corresponding to the event status on the three-dimensional sand table.

No matter how difficult the situation reported by the scouts was, Lieutenant Serey always sat there like a silent mountain, calm and composed.

His strong aura soon infected the scouts who came to report.

Scout is not as anxious as before.

They stood there quietly, waiting for the commander's instructions.

"Stairwell No. 1 is the closest to the waterway valve on the basement level. The Necromancers will definitely guard against it. They filled the stairwell with poisonous water, just to delay our progress in closing the waterway valve on the basement level. The Necromancers are prepared to take precautions. First, we are already at a disadvantage. Following the layout of the Necromancer Cult will only make us completely passive. We must open up a new battlefield!"

Lieutenant Serey looked at the sand table in front of him and said in a deep voice:

"Come on! Pass me the password."

"Yes, sir!" The guard at the door raised his hand and saluted.

Lieutenant Serey picked up the command stick, pointed at the three-dimensional sand table, and locked his eyes on the water channel valve on the second underground floor:

"I ordered Second Lieutenant Pompeii to immediately lead three squadrons to enter the basement floor from stairwells No. 14, 15, and 16 on the ground floor, and rush to stairs No. 1, 2, and 3 leading to the second basement floor." If the situation on the spot permits, Lieutenant Pompeii can continue to the second basement floor and try to close the water channel valve on the second basement floor."

Judging from the layout of the tomb passages on the three-dimensional sand table, the higher the number of the stairwell is, the closer it is to the waterway valve.

The No. 1 stairwell on the ground floor is the closest to the waterway valve on the basement floor, so the Necromancer's defense is the strongest.

The No. 14, No. 15, and No. 16 stairwells on the ground floor are the farthest from the waterway valves on the basement floor. The defense forces in these three stairwells should be the weakest.

In the stairwells No. 14, 15, and 16, as long as the imperial army was fully armed, it was still possible to forcefully break through the enemy's defense line and reach the stairwell leading to the second underground floor, as long as there was no reconnaissance report.

Lieutenant Serey's approach was a bit reckless, but it was still a risky move with great benefits.

If you do it well, you can overtake on curves and turn passive into active in a disadvantaged situation.

If not, the three squadrons of Second Lieutenant Pompeii narrowly escaped death.

The guard who received Lieutenant Serley's password was about to lift the curtain to leave when he saw a handsome second-class soldier walking in.

"Private Jarvis reports to you, sir!"

Li Nuo raised his hand to salute, spoke quickly, and enunciated clearly:

"In the stairwell No. 16, a frost skeleton mage appeared. The Mars team and the Zener team are using bee jelly bombs to suppress the enemy. Their bomb stock is running out. Call for support!"

"Frost Skeleton Mage..." Lieutenant Threy frowned, his lips were tightly pressed, and the goatee at the corner of his mouth was raised. It was obvious that Li Nuo's report surprised him:

"...Guard, stop, don't pass the password yet."

"Yes, sir." The guard, who was going to convey the order, withdrew his feet from outside the curtain, turned and returned to the tent.

Lieutenant Thurley had originally thought that it was unlikely that the Necromancers would guard stairwells 14-16.

But the reconnaissance report reported by Li Nuo was far from what he expected.

In the stairwell No. 16, the stairwell farthest from the waterway valve on the basement floor, there unexpectedly appeared a middle-level undead unit, and it was a relatively high-level existence in the same class as the Frost Skeleton Mage.

No. 14 and No. 15 stairwells, although there is no reconnaissance report yet, it is estimated that the situation should be similar to that of No. 16 stairwells.

Just as Lieutenant Serley was about to launch a surprise attack from the stairwell from No. 14 to No. 16, the necromancer sect sent mid-level undead troops to block the passage of the surprise attack.

The enemy's reaction speed is extremely fast, and the operation is precise.

The enemy knew Lieutenant Threy's command style very well, as if he had figured out his temperament.

Lieutenant Serey pondered for two seconds, stood up, and said in a deep voice:

"The Necromancer's defense of Tomb No. 717 this time is unprecedentedly strong. They must be plotting some dark plan on the fifth floor underground. This is a life-and-death game with the Necromancer! We must seize every point Seconds, reach the underground river as soon as possible, and cut off the main waterway valve from the first to third floors of the basement from there."

Lieutenant Serey looked at the guard at the door, and ordered repeatedly:

"In order, Lieutenant Pompeii led three squadrons to enter the basement floor from the stairwell No. 6 to No. 8, and built a forward defense line on the spot.

"The order was issued, and Second Lieutenant McCann led three squadrons to advance from the forward defense line to the stairwell No. 6 to No. 8 on the second floor of the basement.

"In order, Lieutenant Ott led three squadrons to enter the third basement floor from the stairwell No. 6 to No. 8 on the second basement floor, and build a forward defense line on the spot.

"Order, after completing the current task, each squadron will immediately move closer to the forward defense lines of each underground layer, clean up the undead creatures, and open up the road from the ground to the three underground floors."

"Yes, sir." The guard lifted the curtain and left the tent.

Lieutenant Serley looked at another guard:

"Let Sergeant Alvin send a combat team to fetch the reconnaissance team from stairwells 14 to 16, bring more bee jelly bombs and flamethrowers, and everyone must wear insulated rain boots and an insulated cloak."

"Yes, sir." The ordering guard ran away.

Lieutenant Thurley looked at the third guard:

"Send an urgent message to the legion fortress. We need legion support. At least one second lieutenant must be sent to town."

"Yes, sir."

Lieutenant Serley waved his hand and scattered the scouts in the tent:

"All of you return to the team...Jarvis, you follow Sergeant Alvin and don't go back to the 16th stairwell alone."

The other scouts turned and left, but Li Nuo raised his hand, saluted again and said:

"Report, sir. There has been an Eviscerator in stairwell number 16."

Lieutenant Thurley just sat down on the chair and took a sip from his teacup.

Hearing Li Nuo's words at this time, he was obviously taken aback:

"Are you sure? How do you know it's the Ripper's?... If it happened, how did you survive?"

Li Nuo showed confusion and fluke:

"Sir, before I returned to the camp, Sergeant Zener had already sent a soldier back to report the situation. On the way back, I saw the soldier's body, disemboweled and rotten. It was indeed the corpse of the Ripper. method. I was taken aback at the time, thinking that I was going to die. But the strange thing is that I was not attacked, and I didn’t even see the shadow of the Ripper.”

Lieutenant Serley knew that the corpse was there, and it could not be faked. What Li Nuo said must be true.

If there is indeed a Ripper in Tomb No. 717, doesn't that mean...

Lieutenant Serley's eyes widened suddenly, and he spit out two terrifying words:

"riot…"

Lieutenant Serey put down his water glass, clenched his fist, and hammered the tabletop:

"Damn it, these filthy undead are plotting riots on the fifth floor of the basement! In the past half a month, riots have occurred in every tomb where there are undead Rippers! Undead Eviscers are signs of riots in the graves!... Come on! Come on people!"

As soon as the guard outside the door stepped in, Lieutenant Serley pointed his nose and shouted:

"Go and revoke my order! Except for the team that went to the stairwell to rescue people, everyone stays on the ground floor, and no one is allowed to leave! Go!"

"Yes, sir!"

Just as the guard left, a shaking came from under everyone's feet.

"Boom...boom...boom..."

A series of nine dull voices spread from the lower tomb passage to the upper floor, echoing in the empty mausoleum hall.

The ancient mausoleum trembled a few times in this series of muffled sounds, and a large amount of dust and sand fell from the ceiling.

The movement seemed to be caused by something huge rising from the floor.

Li Nuo raised his eyebrows, thinking of the kind of giant sarcophagus that can explode a large number of troops.

On the second basement level of tomb No. 1079, the Necromancer sect used a giant sarcophagus to burst out many walking corpses and skeleton soldiers.

Now, at least nine giant sarcophagi have emerged from the underground floors of tomb 717.

How many undead units should come out of the sarcophagus?

Lieutenant Serey's expression was extremely serious.

He reached under the command table, took out a heavy metal box, and opened it on the table.

While tinkering with the bottles and cans in the metal box, Lieutenant Serey said to Li Nuo:

"Jarvis, you go and follow Sergeant Alvin, don't act without authorization. Do you understand?"

"Yes, sir."

Li Nuo left the tent, frowning and thinking.

The Ripper in stairwell No. 16 gave him a clue.

If the people of the imperial army think deeply, they will definitely find something abnormal about him.

For my own personal safety, but also for my own freedom, the plan to escape from suffering has to be accelerated.
