Chapter 865: Volume 27: Sudden Gust, - 6: Summoning the Undead
Emerging from the portal opened within the black mist, a figure burst forth, engulfed in pure black flames, with a black gold circlet atop his head. In his hand, the trident shimmered with dazzling gold rings. His ancient armor clearly belonged to an era at least a hundred years past. Around his waist was a mysterious iron belt, oddly marked with various beastly scripts, while several turbid turquoise and blue diamonds adorned the buckle, clearly indicating the high status of the Dark Flame Demon destined to stand before others.
Schiller’s initial angry gaze shifted slightly at this moment. A Dark Flame Demon?! Is this man an Undead Mage? He can actually summon a Dark Flame Demon? And that Dark Flame Demon’s trident appeared to have black mist intermingled with the flames. Where did this man find such an excellent corpse?
As a senior priest of the Religious Court, Schiller was no stranger to Undead Mages. To be frank, he had ’saved’ quite a few Undead Mages himself, but it was rare to summon a powerful undead like the Dark Flame Demon so readily. Moreover, the situation seemed to be more than that. The original quality of this Dark Flame Demon seemed quite high; in life, he had possessed fighting qi strength. What kind of training did this man use on the undead, allowing this corpse to retain its past life’s fighting qi ability?
As if intending to shock Schiller thoroughly, the dark passage didn’t close after the Dark Flame Demon emerged. Another figure, a Black Warrior wielding an Ice Wind Magic Sword, leaped out. The deft, nimble movements and the chilly aura brought forth by the sword made the whole area seem to drop in temperature instantly.
Konti didn’t give Schiller much time to think. As soon as the two undead appeared, a series of gestures burst forth. The two undead seemed to be infused with souls all at once, and the trident and Ice Wind Magic Sword immediately stirred up Yin Wind Demon Flames towards Schiller.
Frowning slightly, Schiller did not wish to be entangled by this Undead Mage. In his opinion, to "capture the king first," neutralizing Komer was of the utmost importance. However, the strength displayed by the Undead Mage couldn’t be taken lightly. The dark passage still showed no signs of closing, and more undead warriors might crawl out at any time. Even just dealing with these two ferocious undead in front of him would be enough to keep him busy for a while.
The Holy Light Technique was activated immediately, and an incomparably holy light, like sunshine spreading everywhere, engulfed the two undead in a milky glow. The "crackle" and "pop" sounds were incessant as the two undead burst into bone-cracking explosions under the radiant Holy Light Bath. The black mist and white light intermixed, and the two undead simultaneously stumbled, seemingly weighed down by an immense pressure that made it difficult to move.
