Necromancer, summon skeletons, practice the Heaven-Swallowing Magic Skill

Along the way, they encountered some scattered goblins on patrol in the forest and dealt with them all.

Soon, Lu Ming and Selina arrived at a mountain in the distance.

Standing on the top of the mountain and looking out, you can observe some of the conditions in Shadow City.

They saw that the city was surrounded by the Goblin army on three sides, and the defenders and magicians on the city wall were in chaos. They could no longer defend here, so they walked down the wall and started to break out with the united knights.

The battle involving hundreds of magicians and knights is a force that cannot be ignored.

Faced with the threat to their lives, no one dared to hide their weaknesses and everyone tried their best.

The knights led the way in front, and the magicians cast magic in the back, and soon they tore a gap from the north and broke through the siege.

"Roar!!" Seeing this, the goblins from the other two directions became angry and surrounded them, chasing them relentlessly.

They have been planning for so long and have sacrificed so many of their people. Attacking the city is one aspect, but the main goal is to capture all the humans in Shadow City in one fell swoop.

To avenge the previous human adventurers who united and massacred them.

Suddenly, the situation on the battlefield changed.

The city, which was originally in danger, became quiet.

Except for a few goblins wandering around the city and hunting down the remaining old, weak, sick and disabled humans, the rest of the army went to hunt down the strong humans who broke through.

Seeing this, a bold idea suddenly flashed through Lu Ming's mind. He excitedly said to Selina: "Selina, I have a plan, a great opportunity!"

Hearing this, Selina looked at Lu Ming nervously and asked in confusion, "What plan? The situation is so dangerous now, we should find a safe place as soon as possible."

Lu Ming explained: "Now all the adventurers and defenders in the city have evacuated, and the goblin army has also chased them away. The remaining goblins are nothing to be afraid of."

"Since the evacuation was too hasty, I guess many treasures in those shops and the City Lord's Mansion were not taken away in time."

"At this time, if we take advantage of their unpreparedness, strike back and rob them of all their treasures, wouldn't that be perfect?"

Selina was a little surprised, but also attracted by this bold proposal.

"You are right. Shadow City is one of the largest cities near the Warcraft Forest. It is a gathering place for countless adventurers. There must be many unimaginable precious treasures in those shops and the treasury of the City Lord's Mansion."

"If we take them all away, the gains will be immeasurable. And indeed, no one will know it was us who did it."

Lu Ming nodded, his eyes sparkling with excitement. "Yes, this is a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity. Even if we can't take all of those treasures away, even if we can take a portion of them, it will be a great opportunity."

After hesitating, she nodded excitedly and decided to do something big with Lu Ming.

"Lu Ming, I'll go with you. But we have to be careful not to let any goblin find us. Also, we have to act quickly to prevent the goblin army from returning."

Lu Ming held Selina's hand tightly and said gratefully: "Thank you, Teacher Selina. With your support, I believe we will succeed. Let's go back to the city and complete this plan!"

So, after dark, Lu Ming and Selina passed through the secret passage again and quietly returned to Shadow City.

Under the cover of night, Lu Ming and Selina returned to the city safely.

The city was dead silent, with only a few goblins wandering around.

In order to avoid being recognized, they took off their iconic magic robes in the secret passage, changed into ordinary people's clothes, and covered their faces with black cloth to reduce recognition.

They moved cautiously through the streets, and tried to avoid goblins when they encountered them.

Only when it is absolutely necessary will Lu Ming use his demonic energy to kill it.

As long as they don't expose their necromancy, they can remain hidden in the darkness.

"We have to be careful," Lu Ming said softly to Selina, "Although there are not many goblins, we can't be careless."

Selina nodded in response, "Yes, we try to avoid them. After all, our goal is treasure, not fighting."

With such caution, they first came to the most prosperous commercial street in the city.

This place used to be a trading center, with all kinds of shops lined up here, selling everything from magic materials, magic weapons to magic props.

From low-level items to high-level magic weapons and even large amounts of gold coins, all were left here due to their owners' hasty escape, waiting to be picked up by the right person.

Seeing these mountains of treasures, Lu Ming and Selina's eyes lit up and they immediately began to search.

However, due to the large number of items, Selina's magic bag soon could not hold them all. She could only stare at those treasures but had no place to put them, and she suddenly became anxious.

"What should I do? My magic bag can't hold it anymore." Selina said in distress.

Lu Ming thought for a while and made a suggestion: "You can throw away some worthless things and choose some valuable treasures."

"Plus, we can split up and do it more efficiently."

"Okay, in that case, let's split up. Remember, safety first."

Selina agreed to this proposal.

As a high-level wizard, the remaining enemies in the city pose no threat to her. Although Lu Ming is an apprentice wizard, with the help of the skeletons, even if he cannot defeat them, escaping should not be a problem.

So, Selina gave a few simple instructions and then went their separate ways.

"Remember, we will gather at the square in the east of the city," Selina warned, "Be careful."

Lu Ming nodded: "Don't worry, I will."

Since Selina's magic bag has limited space, she can only choose to collect some higher-value items, but even so, the capacity is still limited.

After Lu Ming separated from Selina, he began to go on a crazy shopping spree.

He entered each store one by one, and after confirming that there was no one in the room, he directly used his space ring to collect all the items with magical fluctuations.

"It's unbelievable," Lu Ming said to himself, "These treasures were abandoned like this."

Then he turned his attention to the City Lord's Mansion, looking for the vault there.

As the power center of Shadow City, the City Lord's Mansion naturally hides countless wealth.

Lu Ming held his breath and approached his destination cautiously.

He knew that if he was discovered by the goblins, the consequences would be disastrous.

But for those legendary treasures, he was willing to take the risk.

Finally, Lu Ming found the vault of the City Lord's Mansion.

"Advanced magic circle?"

After taking a closer look, Lu Ming frowned.

The vault is guarded by a high-level magic defense formation. Unless someone has the key to open the formation, or attacks from a mage-level warrior, ordinary people cannot break through the defense.

"Try the demonic energy and see if you can devour it!"

Now that he's here, he's unwilling to give up easily.

Lu Ming was a little hesitant, but finally decided to give it a try.

He released his own magic power and tried to use it to devour the power of the magic circle.

When the magic power came into contact with the magic circle, Lu Ming was pleasantly surprised to find that it actually worked!

So he immediately mobilized more magic power and began to frantically devour and refine the energy of the formation.

The core of the magic array not only contains the complex array structure, but more importantly, the huge energy required to maintain the array operation. The source of this energy is the high-level crystal core embedded in the array.

As the magic power was continuously devoured, the magic elements within the formation were rapidly lost, and the crystal core became dim due to excessive consumption.

However, this magic circle is of a higher level and contains enormous energy. If Lu Ming relies on his own strength, it may take a long time to break it.

But at this moment, time is the most scarce resource for Lu Ming, and he must escape from here before the goblin army returns.

Therefore, Lu Ming decisively summoned the skeletons and let them participate in the absorption of the magic circle energy.

With the assistance of the skeletons, the speed of swallowing has been significantly increased and the efficiency has been greatly improved.

At the same time, due to the large amount of energy absorbed from the formation, their realm was also rising at an astonishing speed.

When the magic circle's energy was opened and the demonic energy returned to his body, Lu Ming felt that he was only one step away from reaching the foundation-building stage.

As long as he goes back and refines some of the robbed crystal cores, he will be able to break through.

The skeleton's level was upgraded twice in a row.

It has evolved from a level five low-level undead creature to level seven.

He gently pushed open the heavy vault door, and what came into view was a mountain of gold coins, gems, and various rare treasures.

Lu Ming put all the treasures into the space ring without hesitation, and an indescribable sense of satisfaction surged in his heart.

After ensuring safety, Lu Ming and Selina met at the designated location.

In order to avoid Selina's suspicion, he found a low-level magic bag among the many items he robbed, and then put some items in it, which were the treasures he collected.

The two chatted in low voices for a few words, smiled at each other, and left contentedly.

After evacuating the city again along the passage and finding a safe place, they felt that this experience was like a dream.

“We made it,” Selina said with a smile. “It was an incredible adventure.”

Lu Ming also smiled: "Yes, I didn't expect to get such a huge reward from a blessing in disguise."

After this adventure, they not only gained wealth, but also gained trust in each other.

This is more precious than any treasure.

At the same time, with these treasures, Selina basically saved a lot of energy and could concentrate on practicing.

She believed that she could soon advance to a great magician, or even a great wizard.

Not to mention Lu Ming.

In this operation, he almost emptied the entire Shadow City.

The total value of the things in the space ring is more than that of some large family forces.

With these treasures, the efficiency of his cultivation will be greatly increased.

As for the adventurers who broke out of Shadow City, they had long been forgotten by the two.
