The Hell Merchant in American Comics

The undead actually hid secrets on the ceiling, which was beyond Alec's expectation.

A pillar of fire erupted from his hand.

Soon, the vines covering the wall were burned away, and a large magic circle appeared in front of him.But what surprised Alec was that this magic circle was not the expected isolation or concealment magic circle, nor was it a teleportation or coordinate system magic circle, but an illusion magic circle. To be more precise, it was a function A magic circle similar to a memory crystal.

Alec took out a few soul coins and filled them in the energy supply area of ​​the formation.

The magic circle was quickly activated.

A skinny lich appeared in front of him. Judging from the background of the lich, it seemed to be in a rather large tower.

The old lich did not speak, because this formation did not have the function of recording sound. Judging from the structure of the formation, the person who originally carved this formation changed the formation pattern that records sound into the formation pattern that records the flow of energy.

It walked up the tower and finally entered a laboratory, where several young lichs were waiting for it.There were a lot of things in the laboratory. Alec took a few glances and found with some confusion that among the magic items prepared by the old lich, the materials for casting necromancy spells accounted for very little. Instead, the materials for the life system accounted for the majority. In addition, there are a small amount of soul-based materials.

what to do

It seemed that there was still some time before the experiment started. The old lich went out and then brought a young necromancer into the laboratory.

The young mage was extremely frightened and begged for something in tears, but the lich was obviously unmoved. He waved his bone staff, and a bone cage rose up, imprisoning the young necromancer inside.Then, he threw another spell. The young wizard in the cage was hit by the spell and fell to the ground in a daze. Several lich took the opportunity to enter and took away all the magic equipment on him.

After some time passed, the old lich began this experiment.

It first took out a rabbit and showed it, then it raised the spell book in its hand and showed the spell it was about to use.

undead transformation

Gray energy quickly enveloped the rabbit.

The fire of life in the rabbit was quickly extinguished, but the gray magic had not yet dissipated.Alec knew that these magic powers were trying to transform the rabbit into the undead. It was not just a physical transformation, but a transformation deep into the soul.

Soon, a weak undead rabbit appeared in the laboratory.

Then, the old lich showed the spell book in his hand again.

A complex spell model appeared in front of Alec, but this time, he failed to recognize the spell that the Lich was about to use. Only from the spell model and spell-casting items, he could tell that the spell this time should be a life spell.

A lich who uses life-based magic.

Alec looked a little strange.

After a period of preparation, a ball of rich emerald green life energy appeared in the Lich's hands.

The surrounding lichs stared at this ball of energy in horror. Light and life energy are the nemesis of the undead. Alec didn't know how the old lich overcame his own obstacles and gathered this ball of energy, but he could easily see that life The system ability also caused damage to the old lich. Black smoke emerged from the lich's hands, and fire flashed from time to time on his dead wood-like bones. The life energy conflicted with the power controlled by the undead itself. This kind of The result of the conflict is a confrontation of energies, followed by an explosion.

The old lich carefully controlled the energy and threw it on the undead rabbit.

A ball of fire exploded, and the undead rabbit's body was torn apart in the flames.The old lich seemed to have expected it. He calmly slammed the table with his hand, and a light blue magic circle rose up, imprisoning a ball of gray soul energy in it.

This is the soul of the rabbit.

The soul of life is light blue, which is the most primitive state of soul energy. The souls of demons and devils are red. Only the souls of the undead can show this weird gray color.

At this moment, several young lichs gathered around and seemed to be accusing something.

But the old lich did not argue. He silently raised his staff and started casting the next spell.

Another ball of life energy appeared in his hands.

Under the guidance of the spell book, this ball of life energy quickly formed a complex spell model, and then fell on the gray soul. The reaction this time was much gentler, and traces of gray energy were stripped out of the soul. , in just over ten minutes, the gray soul energy returned to light blue.

This strange change made Alec a little stunned.

"The soul extraction is wrong. This seems to be the reverse transformation of the undead."

He was a little undecided. Although the Lich showed a spell model, he was not familiar with life spells. To be precise, he knew nothing about it. This conclusion at the moment was just a guess.

The old lich's experiments continue.

He took out a bottle of holy water. Judging from the concentration, it was probably the top-quality holy water.

The light blue soul is thrown into the water, and then turns to ashes in the white holy light. The holy water contains the power of the holy light, and the holy light, like life energy, is the nemesis of all undead.The rabbit's soul seems to be purified by life energy, but in fact this purification is not complete. In the holy water, the undead breath hidden in the soul energy has nowhere to hide, and then the entire soul is reduced to ashes in the holy light.

But the experiment isn't over yet.

Soon, several lichs brought new experiments.

A palm-sized lizard, a rabbit, and a human.

The old lich was very patient. It repeated its previous actions, turning three creatures into undead, and began to purify the three souls with spells. After completing these steps one by one, it once again used spells to purify the three souls, and They plunged into holy water.

The souls of humans and rabbits were still reduced to ashes, but the soul of the lizard remained.

A group of lichs seemed a little excited.

The old lich took out a lizard again and extracted its soul. Then, it injected the purified lizard soul into the body of the lizard.

A weak fire of life rekindled in the lizard's body.

The experiment is over.

The white mist gradually poured into the tomb and gradually enveloped Alec. When he came back to his senses, he had unknowingly left the world of memory.
