The Witcher: Son of the Planes.

Pugna took John and quickly withdrew from Charles's activity area.

Although he had obtained several bags of dragon blood, which were valuable for sale or personal use, John was seriously injured. Charles scratched a hole in his chest. If John was not alive, he would have died long ago.

Pugna was still thinking that if he came a few more times, he might be able to harvest a Asian dragon specimen, but judging from John's current condition, it would be difficult for him to recover in a short period of time.

Pugna wanted to go to the castle's alchemy shop to buy some medicine, but he was afraid that his identity as a necromancer would be discovered. Pugna was so conflicted that he didn't notice two little girls walking towards him in the distance.

……

"Miss, let's go back." Nora kept persuading Helen

"Are you annoying, Nora? If you want to leave, go back first." Helen said impatiently.

Suddenly, Helen found Pugna and John with a big hole in his chest walking towards her...

"what"

Helen was frightened by John's appearance. Seeing that John did not look like a living person, she was also a little scared. She looked at Pugna again. Was the magic wand in his hand made of bones?

"Come on, let's go, Nora." Helen felt something was wrong, so she pulled Nora and ran back.

Nora also saw the two people opposite her and felt something was wrong, so she followed Helen and wanted to run away.

Helen's shout interrupted Pugna's thoughts, "Huh? Want to run?" Without having time to think, he prepared to cast a spell.

Hearing Helen's shout, Knight Gavan led the family guards and rushed up quickly, fighting with Pugna.

……

A small lake in the woods.

Colin was still eating barbecue, drinking some ale, and chatting about some interesting things in the territory with Joshua and the others.

Suddenly, Joshua spotted Helen and Nora.

"What's going on?" Joshua shouted

Everybody stood up.

"Yes, there is a weird guy with a big hole in his chest but he is not dead yet. There is also a magician with a bone staff, who seems to be a necromancer. Uncle Gavin is fighting with him." Helen said breathlessly.

"Necromancer?" Colin didn't quite understand, but Joshua knew it was a big deal.

"Abel, take the young lady and the others and go first. Hurry and report to Lord Gandalf and the Baron."

"The rest of you follow me." After saying that, Joshua took the lead and ran deep into the forest.

Colin's only understanding of the necromancer was that he was a magician. As for what spells he practiced or how dangerous he was, he knew nothing about it. So he and his teammates followed Joshua and rushed inside.

They were a scout team, and everyone had an extraordinary skill with arrows. They were not very good in close combat, but Joshua and Colin were not among them. Soon, they arrived at the scene of the fight.

……

Colin found that there were five or six guards of the family lying on the ground. Currently fighting on the opposite side were Knight Gavin and three or four guards, and they also seemed to be in a precarious situation.

"Gavin, I'm here to help you," Joshua shouted.

Joshua and Gavin are both family knights. Their years of friendship made Joshua rush forward without giving it much thought.

With their trust in Joshua, the scouts rushed forward, some with bows drawn, and some with bows charged forward. Colin was also ready to shoot an arrow before charging forward, but before he could shoot the arrow, he saw John.

"Brother John?" Colin asked doubtfully.

Seeing the big hole in John’s chest, Colin was a little confused. Could he still survive like this?

……

Pugna was a little annoyed, if he hadn't met those two girls, today would have been perfect. Now that there was such a big commotion, he was in trouble.

Pugna was thinking about countermeasures while fighting, and when he was about to kill this wave, he didn't expect that other guards from the castle arrived.

"This isn't a tower defense game, with waves of enemies coming one after another, won't I get tired?" Pugna thought.

……

The reinforcements from the scout team came just in time and quickly suppressed the skeleton creatures. John could only defend himself, as Pugna's magic power had already run out after the battle.

However, the good times did not last long, and the short-term advantage was immediately reversed by the numerous skeleton creatures.

The castle guards were human after all, and the skeleton creatures' tireless and fearless fighting style made these guards feel powerless.

Colin had already emptied the bow and arrows in his backpack, and was holding the familiar iron spear, stabbing at the skeleton creature that would never fall.

"We have to hit these skeleton creatures in the heads," Joshua shouted.

While he was talking, several teammates fell down.

"Why didn't you say it earlier?" some teammates thought to themselves.

As time went by, Gavin, Joshua and Colin were the only ones left on the battlefield.

……

Helen had never run as fast as she did today. She felt like her heart was about to jump out of her chest. She ran to Giant Tree Village, stopped the family soldiers, and asked them to quickly report to the castle that there was a necromancer in the forest.

Seeing that there were more people around, Helen and Nora took a rest while walking.

……

"What? A necromancer was found in the territory forest?" Richard was a little surprised.

"Master, this can't be such a coincidence. I just received a message from a magic organization a few days ago. Isn't the necromancer active in the Haoyue Empire?"

"Let's go, gather the guards and head towards the forest." Richard gave the order.

Richard saw Helen while Emerald was leading a large army to assemble. After instructing her to return to the castle and not go out, he continued to rush into the forest.

……

Pugna felt a bit miserable as he came out in a hurry and did not use the teleportation stone to mark the way along the way. It turned out that he only recorded a location, which was his residence in Giant Tree Village. However, after sensing it, he found that the distance was a bit far and he could not teleport.

The summoned skeleton creatures have been completely destroyed.

Although Pugna is an apprentice of a high-level magician, his magic power is running low, and the attacks of the two low-level knight squires are still very threatening. John can no longer count on them, and he will be lucky if he can resist the boy who is an apprentice knight squire.

As time went by, the situation became increasingly dire for Pugna, as he thought of the two girls who had escaped and how they would soon come with a large force to fight him.

He estimated that his existing magic power was only enough to cast a necromancy explosion. This spell was quite powerful, but after casting it, how would he escape from here?

The time of the bone shield on his body was almost up and its effect was gradually weakening. Gavin and Joshua's attacks had already caused damage to him and he could not delay any longer.

While Pugna prepared the spell, he called on John to come closer to him and help him fight off the two knight squires.

Soon, the spell was completed. The power of the spell killed Gavin, who was already covered in wounds, instantly. Joshua had half of his body blown away, and John was directly blown into pieces. Colin was a little further away and was also blown to pieces and vomited blood.

Seeing Pugna sitting on the ground weakly to rest, Joshua shouted, "Colin, hurry up, attack him, he has no means of attacking."

Colin hesitated. Is the magician powerful here? Seeing Gavin dead and Joshua dying, Colin wanted to run.

"Colin, don't be afraid, go ahead, go ahead, you can kill him in one go." Joshua was still talking.

Seeing Colin's hesitation, Pugna felt that his chance had come. "Young man, we have no grudges against each other. As long as you help me leave here, I will give you a lot of gold coins and teach you magic."

After hearing Pugna's promise, Colin was not too excited. He clenched the spear in his hand and threw it over.

"puff"

It stabbed Pugna directly in the heart.

"Is my sincerity not enough? I really think so."

This was Pugna's last thought in this world.

Seeing Pugna stabbed to death, Joshua breathed his last.

Seeing that he was the only one left, Colin was a little emotional, but suddenly, he thought of something. "After defeating the monsters, how could there not be some equipment or something?"

He became excited and started to look through the things on Pugna's body. There was an oval stone, and he didn't know what it was used for, so he put it away casually. He also found a few bags of monster blood. He thought about it, kept one bag for himself, and found a place to bury it. The rest was still hanging on Pugna's waist.

As soon as he finished doing all this, he sat down on the ground weakly, wanting to rest for a while before leaving the forest. Before he had rested for long, he saw Baron Richard leading a large army to the scene.
