Chapter 97 Death of Ladakh (Two in One)



Seeing that Lin En did not move, Ladakh thought that he was facing such a bloody corpse and didn't know where to start, so he reminded him.

"Start with the internal organs and cut off the useless rotten flesh..."

Lynn came back to his senses and began to dissect Ralph's body expressionlessly. The skin felt cold and there were still some condensed ice crystals on it. It must have been frozen before, no wonder it could be preserved intact until now.

Radak just stared at Lin En's knife-wielding movements, gave him a few reminders from time to time, and ordered him to take out some organs that were difficult to preserve and immerse them in a dark green liquid.

Lynn vaguely realized that what he was doing might not be as simple as just dissecting a corpse.

The autopsy work in the secret room lasted until five in the morning. Because of the need to guard against possible attacks from Ladakh, Lin En had to stay tense until he walked out of Ladakh's manor and finally breathed a sigh of relief.

The shaping potion experiment, the Faceless Men, Ralph...Lynn secretly pondered over everything he had seen in the manor. What was certain was that the [Black Doctor] Darak was indeed related to the [Faceless Men], and should be a core member of the [Bloody Thorns] as he had guessed.

However, Lin En did not act rashly. Although there were only two of them in the secret room, which was well soundproofed and very secretive, Lin En always felt that something was wrong.

The only good news was that he had successfully become Darak's assistant, which would provide him with considerable convenience in his next actions...

In the next two days, Lynn continued his teaching duties as Professor of O'Neal Mathematics in the morning, and in the evening he served as Radak's assistant as Timis to gather more intelligence.

As for the rest of the time, he spent time studying shaping magic in the library.

It was not until the third day that Lin En finally made up his mind. He knew that he could not wait any longer because tomorrow night was the day when the Faceless Men would gather.

At night, in the castle of Ladakh, Lin En entered the secret room deep in the castle as familiarly as usual.

However, today's secret room has some changes compared to the past, the most obvious being the presence of a short and fat figure.

That was the apprentice who had been beaten up because of the potion incident. At this moment, he was tied up above an alchemy circle, with snot and tears all over the floor. When he saw Lin En, it was as if he had grasped the last straw and shouted loudly.

"Please, beg for me, Timis... I can't die like this... Do you remember? It was me who recommended you to become Master Radak's apprentice..."

The short and fat wizard apprentice begged with tears and tears, until he realized that Lin En didn't pay any attention to him, he just started to curse, and his words became more and more vicious. If it weren't for Lin En, he wouldn't have ended up like this.

Lin En just glanced at him indifferently and then turned his attention to Ladakh.

He had discovered over the past few days that the black doctor rarely left this underground fortress unless it was necessary.

"Feed it to him." Radak took out a bottle of green potion, handed it to Lin En, and then began to engrave the remaining alchemical runes.

Lin En glanced at the alchemy formation under his feet, memorized it silently, then grabbed the short and fat apprentice's neck and poured the potion into his mouth.

In just a few seconds, the effect of the drug had taken effect, and the hideous and distorted expression on the short and fat apprentice's face slowly eased. Finally, the corners of his mouth slightly raised, revealing a hint of a smile, and he fell into a deep sleep.

Seeing this strange scene, Lin En couldn't help but feel a little frightened, and quickly withdrew from the coverage of the alchemy circle.

At the same time, Radak had finished engraving the last rune, and then he laughed grimly a few times and recited a difficult spell.

The body of the short and fat apprentice soon floated up, his mouth wide open, his body shaking continuously, and then a faint blue light gradually emerged.

No, Lin En soon discovered that it was not light, but an illusory transparent figure, surging like water waves...

Is this... a soul? It was the first time that Lin En saw such a shocking scene. He immediately understood why Ladakh had to build such a secret laboratory. If the previous shaping potion experiment was just a marginal experiment, then the study of psychic witchcraft was definitely not tolerated by the land of wizards.

The azure spirit was suspended in the center of the alchemy circle, staring at the two people with hatred and resentment, and then it let out a strange scream and suddenly rushed towards the two people.

The moment the scream sounded, Lynn felt as if something hit his brain.

He had experienced this feeling before, when Bai Ge used [Soul Scream]. However, the effect this time seemed to be much weaker. Lin En was only slightly affected, and then he quickly took a few steps back. He was not sure if there was any way to deal with the spirit.

Ladakh remained motionless, and the alchemical circle on the ground suddenly lit up. The spirit that was flying over seemed to have hit an invisible barrier, and no matter how the illusory body moved, it could not leave this range.

Lin En even noticed that this strange spirit was becoming more and more illusory.

Ladak did not delay for too long. The wizard apprentice's soul was too weak. Once it left the body, it would completely dissipate in a short time...

As he raised his hand, the resentful spirit seemed to be tightly bound by some force, and was then forced into the half-orc corpse placed on the test bench.

About ten seconds later, Ralph's body suddenly opened his eyes, stood up stiffly from the experimental table, slowly twisted his neck, looked around, and finally stopped his gaze on Lynn and Radak not far from the experimental table.

Then an angry expression appeared on "Ralph"'s face. He opened his mouth as if he wanted to say something, but all that came out was a series of unpleasant roars. His body was completely out of control, and he fell to the ground after taking only two steps.

"waste……"

Ladakh looked at the halfling who couldn't even walk smoothly with dissatisfaction. He spent so much energy, but in the end this attempt still failed.

Its only use is to be refined into a corpse.

Radak activated the secret method of controlling spirits again, and "Ralph"'s body trembled violently. Then he walked to the side spontaneously like a puppet, and finally lay in an iron coffin in the secret room.

"You should have seen it all, Timis?" Radak turned to look at Lin En at this time and smiled grimly. "I can give you another chance to choose. Are you still willing to be my assistant?"

"Of course, Lord Radak..." Lin En lowered his head. He knew very well that there was no choice. Seeing such a forbidden psychic experiment, he had to either obey or die! "Very good, come here." Radak was very satisfied with Lin En's timely performance and said in a deep voice.

Radak stretched out his hand. He also needed to set a ban in Lin En's mind to prevent the other party from betraying him. At this moment, a dangerous warning suddenly came to his mind.

However, by the time he realized something was wrong, it was too late. Lin En raised his hand at the same time, and a stream of scorching fire surged out from his palm, swallowing up Radak's body in an instant.

"Ah——!" A shrill scream echoed throughout the secret room. Radak was ignited into a torch. The fierce white phosphorus fire was like a maggot on the tarsal bone, constantly devouring his flesh and blood.

Facing a strange psychic wizard, Lin En didn't even dare to leave him alive. He used all his strength as soon as he attacked, continuously increasing the power of the white phosphorus fire...

Ladakh's shrill screams lasted for a full minute, and then he fell to the ground, his body almost burnt to charcoal...

Is he dead? Lin En stopped casting the spell and looked at Ladakh, who was completely silent, but he still didn't dare to let down his guard.

The entire secret room was so quiet that you could hear a pin drop. A few seconds later, an angry shout came from somewhere in the tightly closed room.

"You're not Timis..." "Who are you?"

Lin En's heart suddenly sank to the bottom of the valley. The worst situation he had expected still happened. From the moment he saw Radak a few days ago, he realized that the other party's condition was very abnormal, so he had not taken action for a long time. However, he did not expect that this was also a controlled corpse ghost.

Lynn's silence seemed to anger Ladakh, and three of the coffins placed on both sides of the secret room were suddenly opened.

Three tall and strong figures in black robes walked out of the coffin. Each of them maintained their original appearance, but the difference was that their pupils had turned gray, their skin was bluish purple, and their bodies were filled with endless hostility and tyranny.

[Multiple-Pyroblast]

Two of the figures began to cast spells the moment they revived. A series of violent fireballs appeared in the void and flew towards Lin En.

The last person changed his shape and turned into a ferocious giant bear, pouncing towards Lin En.

Lin En took a step back, and dozens of [Magic Missiles] appeared around him, colliding with the flying fireball. Violent explosions continued to echo in the secret room. The remaining [Magic Missiles] took the cover of smoke and rushed towards the two people behind.

[Secondary - Magical Protection]

Two wizards in black robes immediately cast a protective spell, and several magical obstacles blocked the way ahead. However, the remaining [Magic Missiles] were all loaded with ingredients, and suddenly exploded in mid-air, with a large amount of orange-yellow liquid inside spilling down like raindrops.

This is exactly the second-ring upper-level magic that looks like a high imitation - [High Temperature Steam Killing]

But the difference is that the magic missile is not filled with chlorine, but aqua regia, which is more corrosive!

A large number of "raindrops" dripped onto the robes and exposed skin, but the wizard, who had already died, was completely unaware. Large holes had corroded his body, revealing the white bones. As he walked, he collapsed to the ground like a puddle of mud.

At the same time, the ferocious bear had already rushed in front of Lin En, and its sharp claws were fiercely grabbing his face. If it was a few inches closer, it would be able to tear off his head! Lin En took another step back and avoided it by a hair's breadth. His right hand had already grasped the dagger hidden in his sleeve.

【Cell Demonization】

For the first time, Lin En used the methods of the Plastic School. A large amount of magic power poured into his right arm. At the moment when the giant bear finished its pounce, the sharp sword blade was already unsheathed, slashing across the huge neck, almost cutting off half of the head!

Blood splattered, staining the ground red. The giant bear let out a roar, and its huge body fell to the ground while maintaining a forward posture.

Lin En's right hand was shaking constantly. Although he gained extraordinary strength with the help of the magic power burst in a short period of time, it was also a big burden on his body.

However, a quick victory was the only option, because this time five coffins were opened.

Given the melee combat ability that Lin En had demonstrated before, no one chose to engage in melee combat anymore, and instead they all cast spells together.

Facing the siege of several people, Lin En's way of dealing with it was to create more and stronger white phosphorus flames...

At this moment, most of the magic power in the body disappeared, and the energy reserves of the intelligent computer also decreased by 5%. Then the surging flames of hell condensed into a demon's hand, encompassing all kinds of fire explosions, ice arrows and the rows of coffins at the back.

With just this one strike, half of the secret room turned into a sea of ​​fire.

Lin En did not intend to get involved in an endless round-robin battle. Without waiting for the remaining coffins to be opened, dozens of white phosphorus fireballs appeared in the void again and flew in all directions, ready to destroy all the coffins around him.

One after another, invisible magic barriers rose from the surroundings, blocking some of the flying fireballs.

Lin En even noticed that a solid barrier had risen up on the empty experimental table.

It was the three-ring protective spell - [Magic Barrier]! It actually gave priority to protecting this place. Was there something important? Lin En immediately thought of the previous experiment, and a vague guess came to his mind.

"What kind of fire is this?" At the same time, Ladakh's voice sounded again, but this time it was no longer an angry shout, but a hint of panic was revealed in his words.

Although most of the fireballs were blocked by the magic barrier, the flames did not go out. Instead, they attached to the barrier and even had a tendency to expand...

The remaining coffins in the secret room finally stopped opening. Radak concentrated all his strength in one place, and the giant statue erected in the secret room moved. This golem made of mithril was indestructible. It waved a long sword and a huge shield and slashed towards Lin En.

Facing such a huge monster, Lin En knew that neither fire nor ice would be effective, and his response was still - [Magic-Barrage]! Dozens of magic missiles were like a closed rain of arrows, constantly hitting the huge golem, but like waves hitting the reef, they could not cause the slightest impact.

At the moment when the golem's long sword fell, Lin En's fingers moved slightly, and one of the magic missiles deviated from its original route and accurately passed through the hole in the [Magic Barrier] that was burned by the white phosphorus fire. The target was the palm-sized azure gem above the experimental table...
