Chapter 105: Necromancer's Doom

The next morning, Morning Frost Ridge welcomed a rare sunny day in winter.

The cold sky seemed to have been washed by water, clear and blue. In the distance, the snow-capped peaks of the Jueling Mountains were winding. The roofs of the villages and towns at the foot of the mountain were covered with snow, and wisps of smoke were rising.

Yeats rode on his snow-white horse, accompanied by Hildreth and Gray, who rode draft horses, and as they passed along the glittering pearly riverbank, they heard a shout: "Corgi Knights, charge!"

Following the sound, I looked.

On the snow-covered hillside, a short-legged Corgi dog panted, tied a pull rope, and dragged a small sled down the hillside. The goblin sat on the sled seat, looking very excited.

The scene was so novel that Yeats could not help but stop and watch.

On the cot behind the seats, a furry gold digger was sniffing around with its long snout, as if detecting treasure.

"Can a Corgi with such short legs pull a sled?" Gray said in surprise.

As soon as the words fell, the Corgi's two short legs buried in the snow, and after sliding several meters away and braking, it looked at Ye Zhi and others with its bright eyes, and snorted happily.

Yeats leaned over and stroked the dog's head with a smile.

"Sledding is indeed a very suitable way to travel in Morning Frost Ridge." Ye Zhi thought to himself.

"I'll get some sled dogs someday, and I can just ride on the sled when I patrol the territory!"

"Are you going on a long journey?" The little goblin looked at Ye Zhi and asked curiously.

Ye Zhi nodded and said, "It's not too far. We can reach Whitefish Harbor in half a day by horseback. What's the matter?"

"Be careful." Blueberry said seriously, "I feel that the natural forces on the sea are very chaotic. It feels like a storm is coming!"

"But isn't it sunny today?"

Gray looked up at the sky and muttered:

"It shouldn't be that unlucky, right?"

*Boom! The sky was covered with dark clouds, and heavy rain poured down. Millions of raindrops fell into the wilderness outside the White Night City.

The black-haired man was wearing a black robe and was soaking wet. He looked at the still clear sky on the other side of the dark clouds, pushed his wet glasses, and muttered:

"It's a sun shower..."

It had been seven days since he left Wick Harbor. Richie remembered that when he left, Duke Hudson was confronting Earl Thomas in front of the High Castle.

If he realizes that I left rashly, he will be furious and designate me as a wanted criminal... Rishi sighed inwardly.

But there is no point in staying with him, and I will be restricted in every way.

I have to change places and continue to study necromancy.

"Your clothes are all wet, find a place to shelter from the rain."

A voice as gentle as the breeze rang in the necromancer's ears. With concern and attachment, the woman said softly: "If you continue like this, you will catch a cold."

Li Xi trudged through the heavy rain, his trouser legs stained with mud, and said calmly: "Didn't you notice? The dark clouds follow me wherever I go. Even if I take shelter from the rain, the eaves will most likely collapse. It's better to just walk like this and wait until the rain stops."

The woman's voice was filled with confusion: "But when will the rain stop?"

"I don't know."

The man had long black hair and his glasses were fogged up. He said in a half-joking tone, "It depends on when the goddess of misfortune will stop punishing me."

The woman's voice became low: "You didn't have to do this, Rishi, you could have a better life."

"But this is what I want."

Li Xi smiled and said, "As the saying goes, participation is important. Isn't this good?"

Plans always fail at critical moments, you always encounter treasure chest monsters when opening treasure chests, and you often encounter strong winds, heavy rains and even landslides when traveling.

But Richie feels that luck is something that is conserved. As long as the bad luck is eliminated first, he will always meet the smiling goddess of luck in the future.

"My Rishi..."

The woman let out an imperceptible sigh, and then the sound disappeared.

The necromancer took out the map in his arms, compared it with the sky, and thought to himself: "This time we will go through the Absolute Ridge Mountains back to Oslo, and we will pass through the Morning Frost Ridge on the way. I should be able to buy a mount there..."

Not long ago, the news that Baron Morningfrost Ridge built an ice wall and led the defenders to successfully survive the beast tide had reached Wick Port, and the Necromancer Richie had also heard about it.

It is said that Baron Yeats hired Valkyrie from the Iron Oath Guard. With this powerful man who is famous throughout the kingdom, it is indeed possible to repel the beast tide.

But what surprised Richie was that according to the rumors, a large number of Wild Hunt Knights appeared in the beast tide, and Baron Yeats even repelled the Wild Hunt army by some means.

As for the authenticity of the latter piece of news, Richie had doubts in his heart, thinking that it was most likely a bragging tactic commonly used by the nobles in order to enhance their own reputation and influence.

Just like a noble knight who killed a salamander was boasted by the court poet as having killed a dragon.

This baron nicknamed "Rottenwood" might have actually repelled a Wild Hunt knight, and when the news reached Wick Harbor, it turned into a repulse of the Wild Hunt army.

Those who believe this rumor either know very little about the Wild Hunt, or have been deceived by Baron Morningfrost Ridge without knowing it.

He is a top student who graduated from the Oslo National Arcane Academy.

Rich has taken cutting-edge courses in college, including urban management, cultural communication, and trade and finance.

We also have a deep understanding of the influence of news.

In the long-term fight against bad luck, Li Xi's Tree of Life has approached the fourth ring, but it is always unable to exert its full combat power.

With such strength, he should have been a famous warrior in the kingdom, but Lixi was unlucky and never made any name for himself.

Li Xi thought to himself, "But then again, Baron Yeats's feat of leading the fiefdom through the beast tide alone makes the nickname 'Deadwood' unfair..."

On the map, there are two roads leading from White Night City to Morning Frost Ridge. One is the normal trade route, and the other passes through the abandoned Whitefish Port.

Li Xi put away the map and sighed:

"I'd better not cause trouble to Baron Morningfrost Ridge and affect other people's business. I'll take the path to Whitefish Harbor."

…

Whitefish Harbor.

Along the coast of the Ice Sea, the sound of waves echoed, and a group of shark men holding tridents were stationed on the shore.

Ye Zhi used Eagle Vision to look at the group of ugly blue-skinned fishmen across the bushes on the coast and fell into deep thought.

Shark people are a predatory fish-like race whose targets range from the deep sea to shallow waters and coastal creatures. They are called "sea devils" by coastal residents.

Among this race, there will be mutated burly males, whom humans call "Shark Barons". They have intelligence similar to that of humans and can even join pirate fleets to cooperate with humans.

But ordinary shark people are out-and-out evil creatures. They believe in the "Shark God" in the ocean, have limited amphibious abilities, and have to return to the sea to breathe every four hours.

Because of this, Morning Frost Ridge, half a day's journey away, will not be attacked by them.

But if you want to conquer Whitefish Port, these shark people are targets that must be eliminated.

"Prioritize killing the shark man holding the conch horn." Ye Zhi whispered, "Its hunting horn can summon companions. If there are too many of them, it will be difficult to deal with them."

As soon as he finished speaking, the leading shark man blew the conch shell.

Woo——

Ye Zhi was stunned... Were they discovered already? But he saw the stationed sharks holding tridents, surrounding the shore, looking alert.

Suddenly, a huge vampire eel rushed out of the sea, opened its disc-shaped mouth full of sharp teeth, and swallowed a shark man on the sea into its mouth.

Sizzle! This bloody way of eating made the sharks furious. They picked up their tridents and jumped into the sea to kill the vampire eels.

Gray hissed: "What the hell is this?"

"Vampire eels can be made into vampire eel pie," Yeats said, "because this delicacy is so delicious that a King of the Golden Lion even ate it to death."

Gray: ??? This blood-sucking monster from the sea can be made into a delicacy? On the other side.

Under the cover of the jungle, the necromancer Lixi was sweating profusely.

I wanted to sneak past the shark man when he wasn't paying attention, but a vampire eel rushed out! I was so unlucky! (End of this chapter)
