Chapter 119-118- Skeleton Army
Yvette frowned slightly. Although she had confirmed the general's true identity, he was not here after all. He was using the body of Hoyle, the requiem sacrifice. She couldn't just beat Hoyle to death. Not to mention that she would feel guilty about killing good people, the big problem was who to settle the bill with after the mercenary commission was completed.
Thinking of this, Yvette sighed and decided to leave immediately.
She planned to physically invade the police station in Fosjiang and check the cameras in the area to see if she could find the hiding place of the mastermind "Lind Benedict". Otherwise, wouldn't it be a waste of her time to fight against the undead controlled by him every time?
All I can say is that compared to the conventional five elemental magics, undead magic is somewhat cowardly in combat.
Glancing at the indifferent general, Yvette planned to take off directly, but the wind element that had just been generated under her feet suddenly collapsed on its own.
Instead of floating up into the air as expected, Yvette muttered to herself, "No-fly zone?"
"That's right, the no-fly zone has been activated. You can't fly away even if you have wings." The general chuckled contemptuously.
The no-fly zone is a million-level super spell launched by a large-scale spell-casting unit. It can be regarded as a unique "magic circle" or "forbidden spell" of the origin civilization.
By placing large spell-casting units underground in the city, enclosing the urban area like a fence, and then activating it with massive magic energy, the effect of prohibiting flying can be achieved. The core method has two levels: one is to interfere with all wind elements in the area, causing all spells with wind elements as the core to collapse on their own; the second is to apply force field spells and use the force field suppression effect to limit the floating state.
After trying several times in a row, whether it was floating in the air or summoning wind blades, the results were all collapse. This made Yvette experience the power of the million-level spell for the first time, and the experience was quite amazing.
Especially since this technique seemed to be aimed at her alone, she was even more flattered.
Just as she was testing the condensation effects of various wind element spells, the back door of the church was kicked open by the skeletons with a snap.
Despite such a big commotion, the patrolling aides of the Soul Fire Church did not show up at all, as if they had all fallen asleep. The entire huge Soul Fire Church, and even the surrounding woodlands and gardens, all became a playground for the undead at this moment. Yvette was the only mortal who had mistakenly entered the underworld.
Glancing at the sneer-faced general, Yvette walked out of the confessional and stood in the wide corridor of the church.
On the other side of the corridor, the skeleton soldiers rushed in, with green phosphorescence burning in their eye sockets. They rushed forward madly, almost on all fours, their mouths opening and closing continuously, making a clicking sound, like a green and white tide.
Yvette thought for a moment, then pulled out a lightning blade from a rune circle nearby. Then, with a flick of her right hand, the lightning blade extended outwards and turned into a lightning whip more than ten meters long.
——Thunder and fire are the two most effective elements against undead creatures. Since the skeletons in her vision were endless, she planned to fight in the most mana-saving way.
Although she has a lot of magic power, who knows what arrangements the general has made here? The Skeleton Army may just be the easiest level here.
Yvette walked quickly towards the tide of skeletons and swung out the thunder whip. As expected, a large number of skeletons wailed and emitted green smoke.
Judging from the specifications of the spells, if the High Priest of Reincarnation is indeed a level five wizard, then the spells he uses can also reach the 10w standard, which is completely on par with the current Yvette.
Of course, Yvette possesses a greater amount of knowledge. She has basically mastered the five elemental spells. She also possesses a total amount of magic power and spiritual strength that ordinary wizards cannot possess. Her numerical advantage is huge.
But the general is not without his own strengths. First, he is not present and has no security pressure. Second, he masters the "necromancy" that Yvette does not understand. At the same time, he is very familiar with Yvette's elemental techniques and has the advantage of information asymmetry.
What's more, this is the Soul Fire Church, his home ground, and there may be police, army, and Holy Spirit Sect's guards rushing here quickly.
When the time comes, they will surround the place, and he will speak a few words in his capacity as a high-ranking official of the Holy Spirit Church, accusing her of being a criminal who sneaked into the church. Needless to say, who will the officials on the scene believe?
The thunder whip danced wildly, and Yvette continued to move forward along the corridor surrounded by skeletons.
At this time, she missed wind magic more and more. She was used to flying around to travel, but now she couldn't even climb walls or run on rooftops. She could only move forward step by step, and her speed was really worrying.
Moreover, the High Priest of Reincarnation is indeed a super powerful person in the Holy Spirit Sect, second only to the Pope and the Three Holy Priests. The skeletons he summoned are also unexpectedly powerful, far more than just their large number.
According to Yvette's understanding, once she swung her thunder whip, even a lightly modified cyborg would instantly lose its combat effectiveness.
But the bones of these skeletons are as hard as iron, and they are highly tolerant to the element of lightning. After being whipped, only their soul fire is weakened a little, and they can pounce again immediately. It takes at least four or five whips to completely extinguish the green fire in the opponent's eyes. Their vitality is indeed tenacious.
They were quite strong, and when they bit Yvette's arm at close range, although they couldn't tear through the four layers of scarlet armor, Yvette still felt a little pain through the magic. She had to use her fists and feet, frequently raising her legs to kick away the skeletons that pounced on her.
A moment later, Yvette approached the back door.
At this time, the skeletons around became more and more dense, some even climbed onto the ceiling and jumped down. The scene looked a bit scary.
Passing through the small church exit, Yvette saw a massive crowd of skeleton soldiers outside the door, and she didn't know if there were hundreds or thousands of them.
After continuously whipping and kicking to create a safe area around her, she reached forward and gave a light push.
The khaki rune ring on his wrist lit up, as if a Tathagata Palm was struck from the air. The back door of the church, along with the surrounding walls, collapsed outward, crushing many skeleton soldiers outside the door. Although they could not die, they were temporarily unable to move.
The exit suddenly became wider, revealing the skeleton army outside. There were at least two to three thousand of them. Not only were they everywhere nearby, but their green eye sockets could also be seen in the public park behind the woods. The scene was so eerie that it felt like being in a cemetery.
But Yvette didn't want to fight them to the end, she just wanted to leave, which made it much easier.
After finding the weak spot of the encirclement, a red light appeared on her body. In addition to the four nested layers of scarlet armor, she also took out the muscle release and pure white touch, which could be said to be full firepower.
She turned around, took a deep look at the general standing in the shadows, and then like a flash of red lightning, she smashed all the skeletons blocking her way and rushed straight to the civic park behind the church.
During this process, she vaguely felt that the skeletons outside were much weaker than the skeletons she encountered inside, and their bones were no longer as white as jade, but rather rough and yellow.
But due to her lack of understanding of necromancy and her instinct to never underestimate her opponent, she felt that this was probably just an illusion.
