Necromancer: A New Era

A drop of cold sweat slid down the forehead of King Medusa. At this moment, the edge of Ephishad's sword was only 0.01 centimeters away from its forehead. If you ask it how it knew, I'm afraid no one will answer.

Tang Yue dragged his petrified legs closer, and his funny appearance made Lina laugh, but she frowned in worry.

"If you don't want to die, remove the petrification spell on us!"

"You lowly human, you can kill me, but don't even think about commanding me."

"Oh? So you refused?"

As Tang Yue's loyal subordinate, Ephisod understood what he meant, put away his sword, and stepped on Medusa's limbs one by one.

King Medusa endured the severe pain, his expression calm, and said lightly: "Is this the only trick you have? Lowly humans are so weak and pitiful. This trick is useless to our great Medusa clan..."

Tang Yue did not respond. The corner of his mouth that turned up was caught in Medusa's eyes, causing it to pause.

Lina frowned slightly as she watched Ephesud's actions. After all, abusing prisoners was not a glorious thing. Tang Yue reached out to stop Ephesud, then looked at King Medusa calmly.

"If you don't tell me how to remove the petrification, I will let you experience more tricks. Also, don't think I don't know the secrets of your Medusa clan."

King Medusa was shocked. Could it be that this human really knew the secret of his race? Impossible. This was a secret known only to the core members of the race.

However, the confidence in Tang Yue's eyes surprised it a little, but was then replaced by arrogance.

"I'll give you one last chance." Tang Yue's voice was as cold as ice.

King Medusa gritted her teeth and said viciously: "Kill me, I can't possibly tell you such a lowly human..."

Seeing that Medusa was not going to give in, Tang Yue did not take any further action. He took out the golden cane, smiled faintly, squatted down and asked, "Do you know it?"

King Medusa pretended to be indifferent, but how could the sudden change of its body, which trembled slightly, be hidden from Tang Yue, who had a powerful soul.

Seeing that Medusa didn't speak, Tang Yue picked up the scepter and tapped his leg under Medusa's shocked gaze, and the petrifying power receded like a tide.

Medusa was like a madman, shaking her body, and panicked: "You...you...you...!!!" She was originally prepared to use her last bit of strength to petrify and kill this humble human. How did he know how to use the scepter? And why was the scepter in his hand? Too many questions appeared in her mind.

Lina was also stunned at this moment. She really wanted to open Tang Yue's brain to see what the difference was between him and her.

How could they know that in Tang Yue's memory on Blue Star, he had read countless novels, and there were countless descriptions of creatures like Medusa. He guessed something the moment he saw the scepter.

Then, he waved his hand to release Ephisard from petrification. Tang Yue kicked his stiff legs and looked at Medusa, whose face was as pale as death.

"I'll give you two choices. The first is to follow me. The second is to die immediately and have my soul taken out. I'll then revive your body and have it fight for me."

When Medusa heard this, she had already seen Tang Yue's skeleton, so how could she not know the Necromancer's methods? However, she had experienced so many ups and downs, been expelled from her tribe, been cursed inexplicably causing her strength to drop to the sanctuary, and finally been hunted down and exterminated by the gods. Now she was forced to this point by weak humans and had long lost hope of survival.

Looking at Medusa's gloomy face, Tang Yue frowned slightly. Lina saw it and couldn't help but persuade: "Tang Yue, kill it, don't..."

The next moment, he was stopped by Tang Yue's eyes.

Tang Yue thought for a moment, then sighed and said, "Since you have decided to die, I will not torture you. In return, please tell me your story. After all, your clan is recorded in the books as living in the Southern Wilderness."

Medusa was stunned. Hearing that he was willing to kill her immediately and stop torturing her made her so happy that even her snake hair began to dance. But the following words made her stunned. After hesitating for a moment, she exhaled and slowly began to tell the story.

Hundreds of years ago, as the eldest son of the clan leader, he was gifted. Before he was 50, he was already a leader of the younger generation, and his cultivation reached the 9th level of the Holy Domain. Due to the influence of the Medusa clan's talents, all of them can often live to more than 1000 years old. With normal cultivation, it is rare for an adult to reach the 300th level at the age of 8. Being able to cultivate to this level at the age of 50 is enough to show that he is extraordinary.

The young man who possesses the same extraordinary talent as it is its half-brother. They are both brothers and rivals, but it prefers to play with people's hearts, and its cultivation has not reached the holy realm.

Shortly after it broke through the holy realm, their father convened a clan meeting and granted it the sacred scepter representing supreme power. However, its younger brother, through years of networking, raised opposition. Soon, almost the entire clan began to oppose it, and only its mother's lineage supported it. When their father, the clan leader, was forced to change his mind, it led the clan members to prepare to leave by force.

Although the whole tribe surrounded them, with the help of the scepter, they finally left the land where the Medusa tribe lived, because it knew that if it chose to hand over the scepter and stay, all the tribesmen who followed it would die. At the same time, it was unwilling to hand over the scepter, because its brother only knew how to play with people's hearts and did not have the strength to lead the tribe to become strong.

As Medusa told the story, the mystery of their clan was slowly revealed, and their subsequent experiences made Tang Yue and Lina frown frequently.

"This Medusa is so miserable, no wonder she looks so hopeless!" Lina thought.

Medusa finished her story and tilted her head to one side, ready to die.

After waiting for a long time without seeing the sword, it was stunned and said angrily: "I shouldn't have believed in a lowly human like you." Then, it suddenly opened its eyes and shone its innate magic petrification on Tang Yue. However, Tang Yue was holding a scepter, so the innate petrification had no effect.

Tang Yue sighed. He felt sorry for Medusa's tragic experience, but he sighed because this Medusa had a strong talent, but was at a disadvantage because of her simple mind. The extinction of the tribe was understandable. Perhaps the biggest reason for her father to change his mind was not the coercion of the tribe members, but her father realized that, apart from her strength and talent, she had no strategy.

"Are you just giving up like that?"

The sudden question startled Medusa and she stopped her futile struggle.

"I feel that with your talent, you shouldn't stop here, or even on this planet!"

Medusa, who had never heard of the word "planet", was even more stunned. Lina was also stunned. The word "planet" was only mentioned briefly in ancient books. How did he know about it?

"If I promise you that if you follow me, I will lead you to conquer the heavens and see the higher and farther scenery of this world, will you still seek death?"

At this moment, Medusa suddenly burst into laughter. Only then did she realize that this human was only at level 6 in strength. The humble human was just talking nonsense. He had never heard of planets or heavens!

Seeing Medusa laughing wildly, Tang Yue frowned slightly, as if he had thought of something. Indeed, even gods had not appeared in this world for a thousand years, so it would be useless to talk about it too far in the future. But he would have many opportunities to use people in the future, and this guy had good talent, so it would be a bit unprofitable if he didn't fight for him.

Thinking of this, Tang Yue raised his hand, and there was a wave in the void. Lines of contractual power surrounded and formed a magic circle of the master-servant contract, which startled Medusa.

This guy is not lying, he does have a lot of special methods, including the powerful guy next to him. It feels that even if it returns to its heyday, it cannot defeat him.

Seeing that Medusa still remained silent, Tang Yue put away his aura, dispersed the magic circle and said earnestly: "I know you are unwilling to just recognize me, a human, as your master. I don't blame you for being short-sighted, but what I want to say is that I only value your talent and don't want to waste it. If you don't have talent, I will disdain you even if you are a powerful god."

Tang Yue's confident words shocked Medusa, "Why does he do that?"

Afterwards, Tang Yue summoned the magic book of talent, and a large mass of pure flesh and blood energy gushed out, covering Medusa's body. After a while, its body began to recover and its broken limbs began to grow back.

The scene before her made the last bit of resistance in Medusa's heart disappear. She turned over and knelt in front of Tang Yue, saying respectfully: "I, Karl, from the Medusa clan, greet the master!"

Lina was equally shocked. She was deeply shocked by Tang Yue's methods. She was deeply impressed by Tang Yue's endless methods and wisdom during this period. This was the perfect spouse in her mind, omnipotent, like a god.

Tang Yue calmly said, "I accept your loyalty. The only requirement is that you do not go against my will. Do you understand?"

"Understood, Master!"

"Very good, remember to call me Master!"

"As you command, Lord!"

After that, at Tang Yue's signal, Elfsald came to Carl's side and lifted the curse for him. This trick was completely child's play for Elfsald and it was lifted in a short time.

After a burst of black smoke dissipated, Carl regained his full strength and roared to the sky. The bloodthirsty murderous intent that had surrounded him for years disappeared, and the power that affected his mind dissipated, making him feel extremely happy at the moment. He excitedly prostrated himself on the ground and said respectfully: "Thank you, Lord!"

"Get up! It's time for us to leave!"

At the same time, deep in the distant southern wilderness, in the Medusa clan’s home, a relatively thin Medusa woke up in the clan leader’s nest, took out an antique lamp, and murmured: "The curse has failed? It seems that my dear brother has encountered an adventure and recovered!" A sharp tongue popped out from the corner of her mouth and licked her lips. A light flashed in her eyes, and I don’t know what she was thinking.
