Necromancer: A New Era

Not far away, Ariel was lying there. Ming Yin approached and tried to check, "Are you still alive?"

His intuition told him that he should pick up the broken sword next to him and kill the woman. However, as an Earthling, especially a Dragon with 5000 years of traditional civilization, he could not make such a cruel decision. "Hey! Let's tidy up here first."

Then Ming Yin came to Vincent. With his previous experience, Ming Yin did not attack directly, but shouted a few times from a distance.

"My lord! My lord! My lord? I am your servant Ming Yin."

After shouting a few times, there was no response. I mustered up the courage to walk forward and used a wooden stick beside me to pick up the rags. There were wounds all over his chest. How could he be alive?

"Hu~Hu...It seems he is really dead. I was thinking of finding a chance for revenge, but it seems hopeless." At this moment, a feeling of relief suddenly came from the depths of my soul, as if something pressing down on me was removed.

"Did you feel it too? The enemy is dead!"

Mingyin stepped forward, took Vincent's backpack and checked it. There were some unfamiliar sundries, two books, and several unknown medicine bottles inside. He closed the backpack and then Mingyin put the remaining two medicine bottles, a pair of rings, and a short magic wand on Vincent's body into the backpack.

Looking at the bodies in the field, he was in a dilemma, "What should I do? I can't move them!"

"Yes, I have necromancy."

Ming Yin slapped his thigh and said excitedly, Isn’t this a ready-made corpse?

"Whose body should we use? Vincent definitely can't be used. He's a wanted criminal in Field. If he's gone, they'll probably find me, so..."

Ming Yin saw the only intact body in the distance, that of the tall knight captain, and selected the appropriate spell according to his memory. There are two types of low-level summoning magic of the necromancer.

The first method is to preserve the body. It uses the corpse of the deceased as a medium to summon the soul of the deceased to return and force him to sign a servant contract. It requires a lot of mental energy and a little soul assistance. Only one can be summoned at each stage.

The second method does not require a physical body, but uses the corpse of a recent death as a medium to summon the soul of the deceased to return and force them to sign a servant contract. It only requires a small amount of mental energy and can only last for one day. When the time is up, the soul fire will naturally dissipate.

"It seems that we can only consider the first option, let's try it."

Looking at the corpse of the knight captain, he slowly recited the spell according to his memory. As the spell was uttered, Ming Yin did not notice that the sky suddenly darkened and a large amount of black energy gathered in the air. Obviously, this was not an ordinary summoning spell. If a sanctuary-level necromancer from this plane came at this time and saw this scene, he would also be confused. You call this a low-level necromancer summoning spell?

"Well………"

As the spell was gradually completed, a soul-tearing pain came over him, but Ming Yin, who had been tortured for a long time, did not show much, just a muffled groan. However, as his mental power was continuously absorbed, as if it were a bottomless pit, he gradually lost consciousness and fell to the ground. He overlooked an important issue. Ming Yin, who had never refined his mental power, was not even a first-level apprentice. Casting this necromancy magic was simply courting death. An extreme sense of emptiness came over him, and his whole body began to tremble unconsciously.

"Are you going to die here?"

As his consciousness gradually blurred and his soul gradually collapsed, a strange power suddenly came from the depths of Ming Yin's soul. A vague dragon-shaped shadow gradually appeared. It was Ming Long, the leader of Tang Yue's ten commanders. Ming Long looked at Ming Yin on the ground. Although he looked different, the breath of his soul was very familiar. At this time, Ming Long's eyes were full of excitement and joy of reunion. Ming Long glanced at the scene and knew everything. Although he didn't know why the master made such a low-level mistake, could the master be wrong? Then it turned into two balls of light, one flew towards Aaron's body, and the other turned into pure spiritual energy and merged into Ming Yin's sea of ​​consciousness.

Half a minute later, Ming Yin slowly woke up. As soon as he opened his eyes, he suddenly found a huge figure squatting beside him. It had a bloody face and the soul fire in its eye sockets was flickering red. It was staring at Ming Yin.

"what!!!"

With a scream, Ming Yin rolled and crawled to escape. When he stood up and wanted to run, he remembered the necromancy magic he had just released.

He patted his chest to calm his turbulent emotions, then walked to the undead and stared at it. Apart from a penetrating wound on the leg and the flesh on the face that was corroded and damaged, the rest of the tall body was intact and the armor was not damaged.

"Hello?"

…………

"Can you listen to me?"

…………

"Hi~~~~?"

…………

“Sawadee Ka~~~?”

…………

"It seems that we can't communicate. What should we do?"

At this moment, a faint fluctuation flashed across the depths of his soul, attracting Ming Yin's attention.

"Ok?"

I tried to convey a command to crouch down, and sure enough, the undead crouched down. I stood up, ran, and picked up the shield.

"Whoosh..."

After some trial and error, I finally found the control method, but it seemed that it could only execute a single instruction and was not as perfect as I remembered.

"Forget it, at least I have a helper."

So with the help of the undead Aaron, three tombstones were piled up in a short while, and the weapons, backpacks and other relics of the three people were arranged one by one. Without moving Vincent's body, they waited for the female sorceress to wake up.

The setting sun shines through the dense leaves, casting mottled shadows. The forest is quiet with only a few faint roars of animals occasionally heard, emitting the last bit of warmth.

"Um~~~"

A soft moan was heard, and Ming Yin quickly got up and came forward.

"Um, hello!"

"Huh? Who are you?"

"Um, well...I am..."

Before Ming Yin could finish his words, Ariel began to exclaim.

"Captain? Captain! Captain Aaron!"

"Well, your captain is dead, just like your other two friends."

Ming Yin pointed to three large and small graves not far away.

After hearing what Ming Yin said, Ariel stood up and walked to the grave. Looking at the relics placed there, she couldn't help but burst into tears.

"Uh...Captain...Tony...Everyone, are they all dead?"

Ariel's whole body was twitching, tears rolling down her cheeks. She reached out to touch the relics one by one, thinking back to the past experiences of the mercenary team over the past few years.

Ming Yin didn't disturb them and just stood quietly by the side.

An unknown amount of time had passed, and when it was almost dark, Ariel finally got up.

"Thank you!"

"Ok?"

"You must have helped bury them! Thank you!"

Ming Yin's face turned red, "Uh, you're welcome!"

"My name is Ariel, Westeroi Ariel."

Ariel forced a smile and held out her hand.

"Mingyin, Cosimo Mingyin."

“Your name is very special.”

Ming Yin scratched his head and said, "I have been wandering since I can remember. My name is written on a sign on my body."

"sorry"

"It doesn't matter. Compared to what I've been through these years, this is nothing."

Ariel slowly packed up the captain's and others' belongings. She planned to take the three people's belongings back to the Miracle Mercenary Group headquarters to report the captain's and others' deaths.

"Well, aren't you curious about why I'm here? I'm actually the apprentice of this alchemist..."

"Ok?"

A cold light flashed in Ariel's eyes, and she waved the staff in her hand, with a faint flow of magic power.

"Stop, stop, stop..."

Ming Yin couldn't raise his hands. A drop of cold sweat fell down his cheeks. He said hastily, "I am the slave he forcibly captured. I want him to die more than any of you."

The staff slipped down, and Ariel seemed to have thought of something, and said slowly: "I'm sorry, I was a little anxious."

"The alchemist's body and his belongings are all here, you see?"

Ariel seemed to have thought of something. "I only want his body. I don't know about the rest. I will notify the people from the Mercenary Guild to come here. You stay in the house over there for the next two days. Don't go anywhere to avoid unnecessary trouble."

After Ariel finished speaking, without waiting for Mingyin to reply, she picked up the relics of several people, hung them on the beast tamer that Mingyin brought, and then led the beast tamer away with heavy steps.
