Arcane Lord

v1 Chapter 947: Awakening the dead, chain reaction

Seeing this scene, Xia Duo only felt that his scalp was numb, but he could actually open the negative energy channel, but he did not want to contact negative energy, and it was impossible to transform undead creatures as efficiently as Priest Morton.

After all, he is not ready to become a necromancer.

But that kind of suspected method for undead creatures to gain wisdom is not something he can do, and he doesn't even have the slightest idea.

In fact, before today, Xia Duo had seen many undead creatures, such as the night watchman led by Saville and the goblin undead made by the priest Mott, the guardian of the Great Xia cemetery.

But there was a red light in his eyes, and there were no wise ones. The undead goblin creatures didn't say anything. They were like a joke, they had to be tied with a rope, even basic communication was impossible.

The night watchman also needs a living person with wisdom to command. The commander is usually a death priest on duty or a specific soldier who inherits special duties.

The undead night watchers alone can't do much good.

Undead creatures are driven by negative energy, and negative energy is not just a kind of energy, it is the opposite of life and the opposite of order.

If it is described by a popular word on the earth, then negative energy can also be called "entropy."

Therefore, in Xia Duo's view, undead creatures are inherently unable to relate to the order and negative entropy of [wisdom].

But it is a fact that undead can have wisdom, but he hasn't seen it with his own eyes.

Xia Duo was still very interested in intelligent, self-aware undead creatures, but it was limited to this, and once he saw such an existence with his own eyes, his heart was shaken even more.

Living things like humans, elves, and dwarves actually feed on positive energy at their source. Even the drow who lives in a dark and dark place and is afraid of the sun, their existence is maintained by positive energy.

Contact with negative energy, drow's life will wither.

Such creatures may be called "positive energy creatures", but undead creatures are natural "negative energy creatures."

The two are inherently opposed, and it is difficult to coexist.

Seeing Priest Morton so easily created a group of undead creatures that suspected of possessing wisdom, how could Chateau not be shocked!

Once the undead spread, there is no room for living creatures to survive!

Although the Morton priest was invited by the Sevinton Council to help, it should be quite credible, and he should not worry that the other party has too many evil thoughts.

However, everything that happened next made Xia Duo a strong jealous and vigilant spirit towards Priest Morton.

I saw that a group of red-eyed murloc undead creatures began to slaughter their original kind. The fighting method was extremely simple, and there was no strategy at all, just rushing to release negative energy.

The living murloc that was impacted by the negative energy almost flickered and hesitated. As the negative energy impact of the undead murloc continued, the life of the living murloc quickly came to an end.

And a living thing, no matter how its life ends, after its death will release negative energy.

It's just that after a normal death, the corpse releases negative energy very slowly. As long as it is not a large amount of corpses, even negative energy is difficult to accumulate.

But that was all normal death, but now, these living murlocs were killed by negative energy, and they released a large amount of negative energy at the moment of death.

It is as if all the negative energy slowly released during normal death is released in a concentrated manner.

As a result, a chain reaction appeared, and the gray mist-like vision produced by the concentration of a large amount of negative energy began to spread northward along the Wolfsburg River, and any living creatures along the way were swallowed by the spreading gray mist.

Priest Morton looked completely indifferent, motionless, silently watching what was happening in the north.

...

As if noticing the jealous and vigilant expressions on everyone’s faces, Archmage Olong took the initiative to explain: “If you want to quickly and properly dispose of these murlocs, this is the best way. Don’t worry, High Priest Morton will deal with it. Good everything!"

Xia Duo didn't talk to him, not only him, but Niya was silent. If she had doubts about Netheril's ban on Necromancer in the past, then she had no doubts at all now.

If you just study negative energy, that's nothing. The sign of a Necromancer is to produce a large number of undead creatures, and Niya has seen the consequences of a large number of undead creatures.

If this is not forbidden, then many things are really out of control.

In dealing with negative energies, undead creatures, and necromancers, the elven kingdoms are more radical than Netheril. At least Netheril also allows the existence of undead creatures. It is okay to study negative energies, but it prohibits mass production of undead .

In the elven kingdoms, as long as undead creatures are discovered, the only result is to be destroyed. Similarly, negative energy and necromancers are also dealt with in the same way.

Looking at Priest Morton not far away, who was completely non-living, Niya felt a chill in her heart, and she rarely recognized the behavior of the elves.

She moved and leaned against Xia Duo, touched the back of her husband's hand, and quietly interrogated: "The murloc tide has been resolved, but the negative energy flowing through is difficult to eliminate. Is there no other way? "

"Didn't Archmage Olong say that this is the best way? Since Priest Morton is arranged above, I must consider the follow-up impact, so watch it with peace of mind!"

Xia Duo's answer in this way was actually comforting herself. In this situation, there is really no way to clean up the murlocs as efficiently as Priest Morton.

Even if he used his portable space to clean up in batches, it was not as efficient as Priest Morton.

Moreover, their two methods, one manual and the other almost fully automatic, have completely different energy consumption.

And if it were done by someone else ~lightnovelpub.net~ even if the Great Arcanist took the initiative and cleaned up so many murlocs, it is estimated that he would be exhausted enough.

As for ordinary people, if there is enough time, they may be able to clean up slowly.

But it's the New Year celebration soon, and it's still in winter, and the sky is freezing, how can a large number of ordinary people be recruited to clean up the murlocs!

Perhaps for this reason, the Sevinton Council or the Seven Towers decided to ask the Morton Priest to take action to quickly eliminate the impact.

...

Dark vision allows Chateau to see things at night, but after all, it is not as convenient as during the day. It didn't take long for the negative energy torrent that continued to spread northward along the Wolfsburg River to disappear from his field of vision.

At this time, Priest Morton, who had been standing motionless on the bank of the river, suddenly moved. He turned his head and looked at the crowd with red eyes.

There have been those scenes before, and the negative energy torrent has not yet dissipated, everyone's heart is stunned, and then the Grand Mage Olong relayed:

"We are leaving. The torrent of negative energy has already gone north. The High Priest Morton needs to follow the past to maintain control. As for the blockage on the side of Lake Mecht, Master Byron specially explained that the High Priest Morton will take care of it. worry."

After speaking, Oron turned and nodded to Priest Morton and bowed his head, and the latter also responded, his eyes flashed, and then he jumped into the river and merged with the negative energy torrent.

Immediately afterwards, the negative energy torrent from the river at the original site of the Tower of Time began to slowly shrink towards the north, and even the murlocs who had been transformed into undead creatures disappeared.

Only a piece of clear and transparent river water remained, swaying slightly.
