Necromancer: A New Era

Chapter 16 A Desperate Battle

After a few days of travel, they were getting closer and closer to the imperial capital, and everyone was extremely excited. During this time, they encountered several attacks from monsters, but none of them caused any trouble to the caravan.

Ming Yin rode a griffin and studied the demon summoning spell, Chakar was talking to Ariel, and Miller was sitting on the beast cart and meditating.

In the depths of the forest, a gigantic monster that was ten meters tall suddenly appeared. Its figure was as big as a hill, and every step it took caused the ground to shake. The breath it exuded was even more suffocating.

"Fifth-level magical beast! Amethyst Magic Lion!"

The mercenary captain recognized the monster and exclaimed.

The people in the caravan looked at the huge beast in horror. They felt an unprecedented sense of oppression. The existence of the Amethyst Demon Lion filled their hearts with despair, as if the end of the world had come.

Miller opened his eyes and sighed, "It's over. This monster is too powerful for me and others to fight against." But there was no other way. If we didn't unite and resist, we would be eaten together. So he said to everyone in the caravan, "Everyone run away. I will lure it out."

After that, he used his most powerful magic to try to fight against the monster.

As the Amethyst Demon Lion got closer and closer, Miller's magic spell was completed. A huge ice spear slowly appeared, and shot towards the Amethyst Demon Lion with a bone-chilling chill. However, the power of the monster was far beyond his expectations. The ice spear hit the Amethyst Demon Lion's head, and the huge impact caused the Amethyst Demon Lion to fall backwards.

Miller yelled at the people from the Chamber of Commerce: "Hurry up! Hurry up!"

Soon, most of the caravan had fled, leaving only Ming Yin and a few others.

Miller was angry when he saw this: "Hurry up, it will be too late if you don't leave now!"

After saying this, the Amethyst Demon Lion stood up and roared angrily.

"Roar~~~!!!"

A pressure from a fifth-level monster came, and the powerful momentum spread out in a fan shape with the broken stones. The huge force blew down the surrounding trees one after another. Chakaer couldn't avoid it and was blown away, hitting a pile of earth not far away.

The undead Aaron stood in front of Ming Yin and raised a large shield to block the powerful impact.

Miller was seen mumbling something, gesturing quickly with his hands in the air, and green light shot out from his hands and merged into the ground under his feet. Then, a strong wind force surged around him, forming a circular shield that wrapped him up. This wind force instantly increased his speed several times, and he rushed towards the Amethyst Demon Lion like a flash of lightning.

However, the Amethyst Demon Lion was not frightened. It opened its bloody mouth and let out a deafening roar. Then, it kicked its legs hard and rushed towards Miller like a cannonball.

Just as the Amethyst Demon Lion was about to pounce on Miller, Miller quickly dodged sideways and narrowly avoided its attack. At the same time, under the command of Ming Yin, the Undead Aaron also charged at the Amethyst Demon Lion. It raised its huge shield and rushed towards the Amethyst Demon Lion like a tank. After dodging, Miller fired another smaller ice spear at the abdomen of the Amethyst Demon Lion. As the ice spear pierced into the abdomen, blood splattered. The Amethyst Demon Lion roared, slapped the Undead Aaron away, and rushed towards Miller who had injured it. At this time, Ming Yin used vision deprivation, and the blindness was only for a moment, and then it was restored. But in this instant, Miller had already run away for several meters. Seeing that such a weak human dared to tease it, the Amethyst Demon Lion roared and jumped towards Ming Yin, opening its bloody mouth to swallow Ming Yin. The Undead Aaron rushed over and hit the Amethyst Demon Lion from the side, causing it to deviate from its direction. Ming Yin jumped away in time.

The magic lion bit towards the undead Aaron, who used his shield to block. The next moment, the shield was bitten by the amethyst magic lion and swung left and right. Under the huge force, the undead Aaron was thrown into the air.

At this time, Miller's long-accumulated 4th-order giant wind blade was completed and shot towards the waist of the Amethyst Demon Lion. Once it hits, it will definitely be able to severely injure the Amethyst Demon Lion. However, being able to grow to the level of a 5th-order magical beast, it already possesses excellent combat wisdom.

The Amethyst Demon Lion swung the Undead Aaron and wanted to use it to hit the wind blade. Ming Yin saw that it was not good, and immediately ordered the Undead Aaron to release the shield. The wind blade attacked, and the Undead Aaron barely dodged it, but still had one of his calves cut off. The wind blade continued to move forward and cut towards the Amethyst Demon Lion's head. At the critical moment, the Amethyst Demon Lion forced his head down to avoid it, but it was still a step too slow. The wind blade cut on the top of the Amethyst Demon Lion's head. The powerful wind blade cut off the Amethyst Demon Lion's scalp and ears, as well as the tail behind it, and continued to hit the distant mountain. A huge crash was heard, stirring up a large amount of smoke and dust.

The Amethyst Demon Lion was really angry. This group of humble reptiles had hurt him repeatedly. He mobilized his original power, gathered his innate energy in his mouth, and suddenly spit it out towards Miller. The huge purple energy light swallowed Miller in an instant.

"Do not!!!"

Ming Yin controlled the undead Aaron to rush towards the Amethyst Demon Lion, casting all kinds of spells he knew to attack the Amethyst Demon Lion.

Shadow Arrow, Hell Flame, Vision Deprivation.

However, these low-level spells did not cause much damage to the powerful fifth-level monster. The fourth-level undead Aaron wielded his sword and left wounds on the body of the amethyst monster lion.

Miller was hit by the purple energy, and the huge force knocked Miller to the ground, and his life or death was unknown.

The Purple Crystal Demon Lion wanted to attack Ming Yin, but was entangled by the lame undead Aaron. Due to the loss of his right foot, his strength was greatly reduced, and he was about to lose. Ming Yin made up his mind and it seemed that he could only use the demon summoning he had just learned.

Then Ming Yin no longer hesitated, and recited the ancient and low spell slowly. A hexagram of space magic circle that was far superior to what Miller had outlined at the time appeared, flashing with space fluctuations, attracting the Amethyst Demon Lion to stop biting the undead Aaron, bit it and threw it far away, looking at the space magic circle warily.

As the magic circle was completed, a majestic figure rose from the magic circle. The magic circle dissipated, and a huge pressure came. The Amethyst Demon Lion crawled on the ground in fear, not daring to make any movement. This was the awe and fear of the absolutely powerful.

The demon woke up, looked around, breathed in the energy in the air, and exhaled hot, sulfurous air.

Looking around, it saw Ming Yin. It could feel that it was this little guy who summoned it.

Ming Yin was also looking at the demon. It had a huge body, nearly 3 meters long, a strong body, thick limbs, perfect muscle lines, dark red skin, human facial features, a pair of curved horns on its head, a terrifying spike protruding from its chin, and spikes protruding from its shoulders, elbows, knees, and heels. It was extremely visually impactful, as if it was born to fight. A pair of huge flesh wings folded behind it.

Because Ming Yin has not yet fully mastered the summoning method and is not yet proficient in the final part of the contract, he begins to release the contract belatedly, and the power of the contract emerges from the demon bit by bit.

The demon's eyes turned cold, his heart full of anger and disdain. How dare this abominable human reptile release a contract to him? And it was a master-servant contract! How dare he be so presumptuous? The demon's momentum exploded instantly, like a powerful storm sweeping over, directly shattering the power of the contract. Ming Yin had expected the contract to succeed, but was stunned by this sudden change. He didn't expect the demon's power to be so strong that it easily destroyed his contract. As the power of the contract backfired, Ming Yin's body was severely injured, and he spat out a mouthful of blood. His face turned pale, and his body was shaky, as if he could fall down at any time.

The demon teleported to Mingyin's side, grabbed Mingyin's head with one hand and lifted it up. Seeing that Mingyin was in danger, Chakaer tried to get up with difficulty and shot a fireball at the demon, but the demon slapped it away. At the same time, he teleported and kicked Chakaer out with great force. The undead Aaron also swung a one-handed greatsword at the demon at this moment. The demon was a little angry as he was repeatedly disturbed by these reptiles. The innate magic emerged in front of him, and a blade formed by fire split the undead Aaron in two, and he fell in a pool of blood.

Ming Yin was really panicking. Under the absolute power of the demon, they seemed so insignificant. Even the Purple Crystal Demon Lion, who they had fought so hard but could not defeat, crawled on the ground in fear. Was he going to die? The excitement of this world had just begun, and the mysterious veil of this world had not yet been unveiled...

The demon wanted to crush the reptile's head, but it was so hard to come to this beautiful plane, which was much better than their barren land full of sulfur.

So the devil released the power of the contracted slave, wanting to take Mingyin as his servant. When the power of the contract invaded Mingyin's soul, the contract suddenly broke. The devil groaned because of the backlash and the blood surged up.

"Well……!"

At this moment, mysterious runes suddenly appeared in Ming Yin's body. These runes seemed to have life and quickly entangled the demon's soul. The demon felt severe pain and began to wail in pain. Its body trembled, and the huge wings behind it subconsciously spread out and flapped constantly, but it could not break free from the strange rune chains. The torture of the soul was countless times more painful than the pain of the body.

As time went on, the rune chains became more and more numerous, and they intertwined tightly, completely enveloping the demon's soul. The demon's power was gradually weakened, and it could no longer resist this bondage.

"Stop! Please withdraw these runes!" The demon finally couldn't help begging for mercy, its voice full of fear and despair. However, Ming Yin did not make any move and let the demon continue to wail. Ming Yin watched all this, his eyes flashing with indifference.

The devil knelt on the ground and begged for mercy, "I am willing to offer my loyalty and serve you as my master. Please take back your power." After that, the devil separated a drop of blood from his forehead and flew towards Ming Yin. The drop of blood carried a trace of soul and wisps of contract power emerged on it. Ming Yin did not refuse and allowed it to merge into his eyebrows. The devil took the initiative to sign a servant contract with Ming Yin and offered his soul.

After the contract was successfully signed, Ming Yin stepped forward. He didn't know how to take his hand back. As he placed his hand on the demon's head, the rune chains seemed to have found something more interesting. They flowed into Ming Yin's body along Ming Yin's hand, and in a moment the rune chains disappeared.

The demon knelt on the ground, not daring to move, waiting for his master's order, completely losing his previous arrogance.

Ming Yin felt carefully, and found nothing unusual from body to soul, so he was relieved. He ignored the kneeling demon and came to Chakaer. He found that he was just bleeding too much and had multiple broken bones. He was not in danger of life for the time being. He came to the undead Aaron, summoned the magic book, and adjusted the blood and flesh energy to inject it into the body of the undead Aaron. The next moment, he came to Miller and found that Miller's chest and below had completely turned into purple crystal. He had been dead for a long time. A fourth-level magician died like this. A sense of sadness came to his heart. Master Miller was kind, sincere, humble and knowledgeable. He had been getting along very well with his teacher and friend these days. Now he fought to death to protect himself. He was one of the few people Ming Yin cared about. He gently picked up Miller's body, came to the beast chase, slowly put it away, and took off his cloak to cover it.

After doing all this, Ming Yin came to the devil and asked condescendingly: "Tell me about yourself"

The demon knelt and said, "Master, I am the leader of the Demon Abyss Red Flame Demon Clan. I am currently at the peak of the 7th level and have the dual talents of Demon Prison Red Flame and Space Teleportation.

Go and catch that lion. Remember to beat it up, but don't kill it or cripple it.

"Yes"

The Red Flame Demon teleported in front of the Amethyst Demon Lion, and the Amethyst Demon Lion's body instantly shook like a sieve. In the Red Flame Demon's hideous grin, the Amethyst Demon Lion kept wailing in the torture, and was then thrown at Ming Yin's feet by the Red Flame Demon with its last breath.

Ming Yin looked at the huge body of the Amethyst Demon Lion and felt a little dazed for a moment. The demon beast that had made them extremely desperate just now was so small at this moment that they could be killed with ease.

Ming Yin's eyes flashed coldly. He wanted to kill him, but after thinking carefully, he thought that he might still be useful to him, so he asked, "Can you understand what I'm saying?"

The Purple Crystal Demon Lion nodded humanely

"Submit or die"

The body of the Amethyst Demon Lion shook again, and the huge lion head was placed in front of Ming Yin. A drop of blood with a trace of soul flew out, offering loyalty.

Ming Yin turned to the demon and said, "Go back to your original world. I will summon you when I need you."

"Yes! Master, you just need to release the summoning energy."

As Ming Yin lifted the summons, a magic circle appeared under the demon's feet, slowly sinking and disappearing.

"Can you shrink your body?"

Upon hearing Ming Yin's order, the Amethyst Demon Lion's body trembled and slowly shrank until it shrunk to its normal one meter height.

In this fierce battle, Archmage Miller was unfortunately killed, and half of his body was turned into amethyst. The undead Aaron recovered under the effect of Mingyin's flesh and blood magic, but the fire of his soul flickered, and he was seriously injured and needed time to recover. Chakaer recovered under the effect of Mingyin's flesh and blood energy, and he is no longer in danger. Chakaer, who witnessed the battle, was completely convinced by Mingyin. Such a powerful demon was taken in as a servant by Mingyin, and this monster is now like an obedient pet. He is very proud of his original choice.

Chakar called back everyone in the caravan and started to clean up the battlefield. Everyone was extremely respectful when passing by Mingyin. This adult looked young, but he was very powerful and mysterious. Even Master Miller was killed by such a terrifying monster, but he was kept as a pet. Everyone was in awe of the young man who saved them.
