Necromancer: A New Era

Chapter 42 Your name is: Dark Dragon

On a hill at the edge of the battlefield, the view was extremely broad. A team of scouts composed of human warriors stood there, their eyes sharp. On a high branch, a man in magician's robes was holding a recording crystal, concentrating on recording every detail of the distant battlefield.

"Captain, should we lend a hand?" A soldier couldn't help but ask, his eyes fixed on the struggling human necromancer on the battlefield. "That human mage, he seems to be almost unable to hold on."

The captain frowned, his eyes never leaving the battlefield. "Don't talk nonsense. Our mission is to investigate the size of the orcs here and find opportunities to eliminate them, not to blindly rush down and die."

"Captain, you are right." Another warrior said, "But we are human. How can we sit back and watch our compatriots suffer? Even if we die here, what if we can save him? Besides, judging from the battle just now, the mage is obviously a strong man."

The captain looked at the burning eyes of the warriors around him and understood their thoughts. He took a deep breath and sighed, "Okay, since you all want to take action, then go ahead. But we must leave two people behind to protect the mage and the recording crystal. This is our mission and we must not fail."

The soldiers were inspired by the words. Although they knew that this operation was full of dangers, their faces were full of determination and resoluteness. The captain looked at these brothers who had fought side by side with him for many years and was filled with pride.

"Brothers, now that we have made the decision, let us fight to the death!" The captain raised the sword in his hand and shouted loudly.

"Fight to the death!" The soldiers responded in unison, their voices shaking the earth.

After leaving two warriors behind to protect the mage and the recording crystal, the captain led the remaining nine people and rushed towards the battlefield. Their figures drew a magnificent arc on the hillside, like a sharp sword drawn from its sheath, piercing the heart of the orcs.

On the battlefield in the distance, Tang Yue was struggling to hold on. He was besieged by a large number of orc warriors, and the skeleton soldiers around him were constantly being consumed. The orc general wielded a mace, and every attack made him feel a huge pressure. The priest next to him kept casting corrosive magic, trying to completely defeat him.

Just when Tang Yue felt desperate, he saw the group of human warriors rushing down the hillside in the distance. Their arrival made him happy, but soon he frowned again. Because he found that this group of warriors had no other support behind them. They were fighting alone, which was undoubtedly a suicide mission.

However, Tang Yue was powerless to stop them at this moment. He could only do his best to help them. He commanded the skeleton soldiers around him to move closer to the team of soldiers, trying to share some of the pressure for them. At the same time, he also endured his mental fatigue and moved closer to them.

The battle was in full swing. The human warriors were like sharp blades, swiftly cutting into the dense defenses of the orcs. They swung their swords to kill the surrounding orc warriors, and every blow revealed determination and cruelty. But the orcs came like a tide, and the advantage in numbers made the human warriors soon fall into a difficult and bitter battle. The warriors fell one after another, but the survivors showed a more determined fighting spirit. They bravely moved forward, just to give Tang Yue a chance to escape.

After going through numerous dangers, the brave captain led the remaining warriors to break through the siege and finally arrived at Tang Yue's side. They stared at Tang Yue's pale face and dull magic book, knowing that he was almost exhausted.

"Sir, please break out as soon as possible!" The captain gasped. He was injured in many places, but his eyes were still shining with unyielding light. "Why bother? You are just committing suicide."

The captain calmed himself down and said firmly: "Although our strength is small, we can never sit idly by and watch our compatriots suffer!" Then he waved his weapon and fought with the orcs around him.

As the battle became more intense, Tang Yue noticed that the priest was showing signs of fatigue and his magic power seemed to be exhausted. He quickly gathered the last bit of strength and fired a small bone spear, which accurately pierced the priest's head and nailed it to the ground in the distance.

The death of the orc priest angered the orc warriors, and they launched a more frenzied attack. At this time, the orc general also went into battle himself, waving a mace and rushing towards the human warriors.

Seeing the critical situation, the human captain stepped forward and tried to stop the orc general's fierce attack. The mace and lance collided violently, sparks flew everywhere. But the orc general was so powerful that he kicked the captain away, and the captain vomited blood and was in critical condition.

Tang Yue's heart sank. As he continued to break out, the soldiers around him fell one after another. When he finally succeeded in breaking out, there was only one soldier left by his side, and the skeleton soldiers had all been wiped out.

At this moment, the surrounding orc warriors retreated, and the orc general came out. He roared at Tang Yue in the distance, holding a human head high in his left hand. Tang Yue was showing off, but also seemed to be provoking.

The only remaining warrior witnessed this scene, filled with grief and anger. He raised his sword and rushed towards the orc general, but was eventually stabbed to death. With the death of this warrior, Tang Yue was completely in despair. His mental strength was exhausted, and he was alone facing many orc warriors and the powerful general. He was powerless to save the situation.

At this moment, the morning sun was just beginning to appear in the sky, and the sunlight dyed the earth with golden light. The mountains in the distance were looming in the mist, as beautiful as a fairyland. Tang Yue stared at this picturesque scenery, but his heart was filled with helplessness and despair.

Tang Yue had no time to appreciate the scenery. The remaining orc warriors were all wounded, with blood flowing down their muscular bodies. They carefully surrounded him step by step. This human mage brought too much terror to them.

At this desperate moment, an angry roar was heard from the mountain pass not far away! An extremely burly figure rushed over quickly, and his burly body was no less than that of the orc general.

Tang Yue was delighted, it seemed that God would not abandon him, he finally caught up. He had clearly sensed last night that the person who was rushing towards him was the undead Aaron, he came just in time.

On the chaotic battlefield, several burly orc warriors held their weapons tightly, trying to build a line of defense. However, in front of the undead Aaron's stormy charge, their line of defense was like paper, and was torn apart in an instant. Aaron's blade flashed with a cold light, cutting the orc warrior blocking his way in half, and rushed towards the orc general unstoppably.

A deafening roar sounded, and the orc general flew backwards as if he was hit by a giant hammer. The undead Aaron flashed and chased after him, swinging his sword in a sharp arc and slashing the orc general hard. The general screamed and fell heavily to the ground. The surrounding orc warriors surrounded him, but they all fell under Aaron's sword.

At this time, the undead Aaron was like an invincible god of war. His strength had reached the peak of level 5. These low-level orc warriors could not stop him at all. He swung his sword back and cut off the orc general's head, then strode after the remaining orc warriors who were beginning to flee. Under his sword, the orc warriors fell one after another like harvested straw.

Soon after, all the orc warriors on the battlefield were slaughtered by the undead Aaron. He came to Tang Yue, knelt on one knee, and bowed his head. Tang Yue looked at this machine that used to only fight, but now showed such amazing strength and wisdom, and he couldn't help but feel a lot of emotion in his heart.

Tang Yue stood up with difficulty, walked to the side of the undead Aaron, and whispered: "Can you speak?" Aaron made a vague sound, as if trying to express himself. Tang Yue frowned, and suddenly felt a name coming from the spiritual bondage: "Nether Dragon?" He asked tentatively: "Nether Dragon is your name?" Aaron nodded, and Tang Yue's heart suddenly surged with an inexplicable sense of familiarity.

"Then you will be called Minglong from now on!" Tang Yue had just finished speaking when the sky suddenly changed. A black lightning streaked across the sky, followed by a black light that descended from the sky, enveloping Minglong. Tang Yue was stunned by this sudden change. He had not expected that just giving a name would cause such a strange phenomenon.

As the strange phenomenon in the sky dissipated, Minglong stood up, his eyes gleaming with wisdom. He bowed to Tang Yue and said, "My Lord!" Tang Yue was surprised: "You can speak now?" Minglong stammered, "My Lord, I... can speak... now!" Although his expression was still a little stiff and unclear, he was able to communicate simply.

Tang Yue looked around and realized that this was not a place to stay for long. He quickly led the Nether Dragon away from the battlefield, leaving behind only a mess and the astonished gaze of the magician on the distant hill.

This battle not only made Tang Yue famous, but also made the power of the necromancer once again shock the entire continent. From then on, the "Undead Lord" Tang Yue and his Skeleton Sea became a legend among people.
