Chapter 85

~7 min read 1,242 words

Bang! Bang!

White light spots emerged.

Two Guardian Angels holding long spears materialized and appeared at Tang Zheng's side.

"Although I know something about Khajiit's abilities, what the other party has shown is not necessarily all of their abilities; after all, they have extraordinary combat experience."

Tang Zheng's expression was serious, but his eyes carried a hint of excitement and solemnity.

This person in the future has had the experience of a head-on battle with the Pleiades, although Narberal only held the mentality of playing at first.

But Narberal's level reached the 63lv level, while Khajiit was only around level 21; under such a gap, he was not finished off at the first moment.

It can be seen that being valued by 【Zuranon】, Khajiit has real skills.

"Camouflage!"

Tang Zheng's gaze flashed, and a magic scroll appeared in his hand again, which he swung at the Guardian Angel on the left.

Green magic light flickered.

The figure of the Guardian Angel on the left, under the effect of "Camouflage," gradually blurred and soon merged into the night.

"With the help of the dark environment, the effect is no worse than in the forest." Tang Zheng looked at the Guardian Angel on the left that had disappeared and nodded slightly.

Using a Second Rank magic scroll to absorb First Rank magic is indeed a bit wasteful, but this bit of waste, in the eyes of Tang Zheng, who possesses independent magic scroll creation, counts for nothing.

Under Tang Zheng's control.

This invisible Guardian Angel began to move forward, stopped at a position about 50m ahead, and began to move laterally, staggering from the position where Tang Zheng was.

Looking from above.

Tang Zheng and the old temple were on a straight line, while the invisible Guardian Angel was located at the position to the left between the two sides, forming a triangular formation.

Swish!

Tang Zheng took out a Second Rank Angel Summoning again and summoned another Guardian Angel.

Currently, ten Second Rank magic scrolls had been used up in one go.

"Go, enter the temple."

Tang Zheng controlled the newly appeared Guardian Angel to move toward the direction of the temple, while he himself stood behind another Guardian Angel that had not been disguised, his figure flickering.

"Stealth!"

Tang Zheng's entire body became blurred, as if merging into the shadow of this Guardian Angel.

This is a skill obtained when fighting that thief from "Eight Fingers," possessing the effect of lowering presence and hiding in shadows.

The newly summoned Guardian Angel flew rapidly and entered the dilapidated temple; there was no place to hide people in the empty temple.

Just by glancing at it, one could see the interior of the entire temple clearly; the only thing slightly eye-catching was an object in the center of the temple that looked like a stone coffin.

However, in this place full of tombstones and graveyards, it was really inconspicuous and looked more like a decoration to match the graveyard.

Whoosh!

This Guardian Angel's wings vibrated, and it flew rapidly above this stone coffin, and the long spear in its hand emitting a bright light slammed forcefully onto this stone coffin.

Bang!

A dull roaring sound exploded instantly in the silent environment.

The seemingly sturdy stone coffin was smashed directly with cracks by the Guardian Angel's heavy blow, and immediately after, the attack fell again.

Bang!

Another loud sound, and the entire stone coffin was smashed to pieces.

A dark underground passage appeared in front of the Guardian Angel.

Under Tang Zheng's control, this Guardian Angel rushed into the passage without hesitation.

And outside the temple.

Tang Zheng, hidden in the shadow of the Guardian Angel, waited patiently.

The order he gave to that Guardian Angel was to destroy everything after entering the underground passage.

Tang Zheng did not intend to take risks himself and enter the lair of a necromancer; what he wanted to do was to lure Khajiit out from inside. Boom! Rumble!

In the underground chamber below the temple, a burst of dense vibrations soon sounded.

But the sound appeared fast and disappeared fast.

In just a moment, the intense vibration disappeared without a trace.

Without guessing, Tang Zheng already knew that the Guardian Angel that had rushed into the underground chamber had already been dealt with.

A brief silent atmosphere once again enveloped this area.

It was soon broken again.

One by one, low-rank undead zombies, wearing rags, emitting a rotten aura all over their bodies, but with bodies still relatively intact, climbed out from the underground passage one after another.

"Hiss!"

"Woo!"

=9+Book_Bar

"Hiss!"

"...!"

These dozen or so low-rank zombies kept swaying their bodies and hissing, but they did not have any chaotic actions; instead, after appearing, they surrounded the entrance to the underground chamber at the first moment.

This is Khajiit, who is manipulating this group of zombies, observing and testing!

Tang Zheng looked toward the direction of the temple through the Guardian Angel blocking in front of him, and narrowed his eyes slightly.

Really cautious!

Actually, Tang Zheng had the idea of summoning all the angels at the beginning and controlling this group of angels to rush into the underground chamber in one go.

Perhaps, he could have hacked Khajiit to death in one go.

It's just that this was only the best-case scenario.

Since Khajiit dared to hide in this kind of underground temple that was obviously easy to block at the door, he naturally would not fail to guard against such accidents.

Perhaps in the underground chamber, there was still a hidden passage to leave this graveyard; if such a situation occurred, once Khajiit ran away, it would be difficult to find the other party.

"Second Rank · Guardian Angel?"

"This doesn't look like the ability that those ordinary guards and small characters from the Adventurer Guild can master."

A cold and low voice sounded from the underground chamber.

Although this voice was not very loud, in this graveyard that was excessively quiet at the moment, it clearly spread out.

Following the sound of footsteps stepping on the stairs, unhurriedly.

An old man wearing a blood-colored mage robe, bald, with gray-white skin showing a sickly pallor, looking like he was fifty or sixty years old, walked out from the basement along the stairs.

A magic necklace inlaid with three skull patterns hung on the other party's chest, and a slender black staff was held in the left hand. The right hand was dragging a black stone the size of two fists.

At a glance.

It gave people a feeling of being quite dangerous and imposing.

The moment Tang Zheng saw the other party's figure, he had already retracted his gaze, and his entire figure was completely hidden in the shadow of the Guardian Angel.

Don't look at the other party looking like they are fifty or sixty years old; in reality, the other party is only about 40-something years old. The reason for this is entirely the result of being constantly corroded by negative energy.

If a living person wants to control the abilities of the undead, they must suffer the erosion and influence of negative energy.

If one wants to avoid this problem, either stop being human, completely turn into an undead, and become a long-lived species no longer bound by race or lifespan.

Or completely die under the erosion of negative energy and then transform into an undead without self-consciousness.
