Chapter 1454 Listening and Surprise
"After surrounding my group, the group of liches did not hesitate at all. They launched a massive attack, each of which was extremely deadly. Bone spears and bone explosions were heard everywhere."
"Although our group was much weaker than the other side, we did not fall into the disadvantage immediately thanks to the sixth-tier equipment and powerful trump cards given by His Majesty. Instead, we fought back and forth with the other side at the beginning."
"Especially with the help of the sixth-level defense scroll bestowed by His Majesty, even Lina and others in the team did not fall under the opponent's attack. Instead, they used the sixth-level attack scroll to cause considerable trouble to the opponent."
Gray's old eyes were full of confusion as he continued to recall the scene at that time.
"However, the opponent's strength was overwhelming after all, and the old minister and his group's trump cards were quickly exhausted."
"Faced with the liches' fierce and vicious attacks and unbridled laughter, just when my group was at the end of their strength and could die at the hands of the other side at any time, the liches' attacks suddenly stopped, and even the undead controlled by the other side were scattered on the ground, turning into a pile of bones again."
After hearing what Gray Old Man said, Lei Xiao's curiosity grew even more intense, and he asked in surprise, "Old Chairman, are you saying that the liches' spells suddenly became ineffective?"
"That's right, Your Majesty. When we realized this, I was extremely puzzled and confused. The liches were even more shocked and had no idea what was going on."
Gray Elder nodded respectfully and responded, "Just when the entire battlefield seemed to have been paused, countless bone spears whizzed down from the sky, but the target of the attack was not the subordinates, but the liches who had no time to react."
"Under the fierce attack of the bone spear, and the fact that the opponent was unable to cast any spells, they all fell to the ground soon, making the entire battlefield completely quiet."
Joniel took over the conversation and continued, "Then, a familiar figure appeared in front of the old minister and others, and they were stunned."
"My Lord, not only are the two guild leaders stunned, but even my subordinates are stunned as well."
Lina chuckled and echoed.
"So, it was because of that familiar figure that you were able to resolve your crisis, and you all know that figure?"
Lei Xiao looked at Hui Lao, Joniel and Lina in turn with a look of surprise on his face.
While surprised, Lei Xiao's eyes lit up and he quickly reacted.
In his own impression, there was only one person who could have interactions with the three of them at the same time and use the same necromancy, and that person was the necromancer Fleming, one of the nine dragon-slaying heroes of the human race.
After all, Fleming is not only an old friend of Gray Old Man and Jonil, both of whom are among the Nine Dragon Slayers, but he is also Lina’s teacher.
"It seems that Your Majesty has already thought of the answer to the matter."
Jonil nodded to Lei Xiao and affirmed: "Yes, it was Fleming who helped Lao Chen and others overcome the crisis."
"Then where is he now?"
A hint of urgency surged across Lei Xiao's face, and he immediately asked again.
You know, Fleming is not only a legendary strongman of the human race, but according to Lina, he is also likely to know how to restore the magical veins of the Shult and other tree people's forests.
What's more, this time, Fleming helped us overcome such a life-and-death crisis at the critical moment. I should thank him very much out of both emotion and reason. It would be best if I could recruit him.
"Your Majesty, let's start from what happened afterwards."
Jonil touched his chest and saluted, and continued, "After dealing with the group of ambushing liches, the old minister and his party were so surprised that they didn't have time to thank Fleming, so they simply gave a brief and clear account of the whole incident."
"After learning everything, the other party immediately summoned a Siren Undead. It didn't take long for it to successfully create a big hole in that extremely exquisite illusion."
After hearing what Joniel said, Lei Xiao nodded thoughtfully.
The Siren clan can be said to be the nemesis of illusions, and they are extremely good at illusions. When Nolan first encountered him, he suffered a lot at the hands of the Siren undead.
Nolan is also Fleming's apprentice, so it's no surprise that the latter also owns the Siren Undead.
Just as Lei Xiao thought of this, Joniel's old voice rang out again.
"Afterwards, I, along with my companions, went deep into the illusion with the help of Fleming and the Siren Undead, and eventually rescued the Rainforest Leader and other powerful warriors who were accompanying him. They were trapped in different areas of the illusion and could not get out of it at all."
"What happened next was very simple. After learning that the imposter had commanded the rainforest army to besiege Yingming Fortress, the rainforest leader and others were furious and immediately returned here with the old minister and his party."
"On the battlefield, the other party was planning to deny it, but the Rainforest Leader had a hot temper. He seized the opportunity and tore the counterfeit into pieces, revealing the true identity of the lich. He then quickly regained control of the army."
"During this process, the scene was extremely chaotic for a while, and several liches eventually took advantage of the chaos to escape. Fleming immediately chased after them, and has not returned yet."
Jonil smiled again and said, "What happened next was just as Your Majesty saw. The rainforest army retreated quickly, and the crisis of Yingming Fortress was resolved."
"I understand. This time, all of you and Mr. Fleming have made great contributions. When the lich is completely eradicated, everyone will be rewarded according to their merits."
After listening to the whole story, Lei Xiao nodded to everyone and said, "Thank you for your hard work."
"Your Majesty, you are too kind. Fleming is the real key. I didn't expect that after so many years, I can still see this old friend."
Gray Old Man stroked his gray beard and smiled.
"The lich is full of tricks. I hope he can come back soon."
Lei Xiao took a deep breath slowly, and a look of worry appeared on his face again.
"Don't worry, Lord. The teacher is the nemesis of liches and other necromancers. Nothing will happen to him easily."
Lina saw Lei Xiao's worry and smiled, "Maybe it won't be long before the teacher returns safely."
"That's true. I will never treat this old gentleman unfairly."
Hearing this, the worry on Lei Xiao's face dissipated a little.
According to the descriptions of the two old presidents, Fleming does have the means to control the lich. Plus, he has been traveling in the outer realms for a long time, so he must know how to handle things properly and should not run into any trouble.
Just as Lei Xiao was thinking about this, a burly figure flew over from a distance and soon appeared in front of him. (End of this chapter)
