Chapter 867: Lich
Translator: Nyoi-Bo Studio Editor: Nyoi-Bo Studio
In the blink of an eye, other than the intense pain that spread throughout his body, the negative state on Fang Heng’s body was completely eliminated. His brain regained consciousness once again, and he gained control of his body.
A sense of crisis struck him once again!
Fang Heng took a deep breath and looked back while enduring the pain.
Behind him, the King Guard raised its long sword again and rapidly approached him.
Again?!
Fang Heng’s brain was spinning rapidly.
The King Guard was terrifyingly powerful. It only needed one strike to break the holy-type turtle shell!
Who would be able to withstand another attack?
Wasn’t this risking his life?
The plan failed!
Activating the all-purpose backup plan.
Escape!
Fang Heng could no longer pay attention to the condition of the Shrine of Bones behind him. He quickly closed his eyes and prepared to return to the game to avoid this attack first!
He closed his eyes.
In the darkness, the Gate of Bones gradually appeared in front of Fang Heng.
Fang Heng was controlling his consciousness to push open the door and enter the game when a familiar voice suddenly sounded in his ear.
“Fang Heng, kill him!”
Eh? Teacher Pu Shi?!
This voice stunned Fang Heng, and he suddenly opened his eyes.
In front of him, the King Guard stood there as if it were bounded!
The King Guard held the long bone sword tightly with both hands and was about to swing it forward but there were streams of dark aura on its body that were firmly binding it!
Fang Heng revealed a surprised expression and looked behind the King Guard.
Teacher Pu Shi was actually not dead?!
Teacher Pu Shi’s face was extremely pale. He held the Shrine of Bones in his left hand and extended his right hand forward. Countless materialized black auras condensed into black chains that extended out from his hand, he grabbed tightly onto the skeleton of the King Guardian and trapped it on the spot!
“Teacher?!”
When the Necromancer Association players saw Teacher Pu Shi resurrect, they were instantly excited!
Everything happened in a flash. First, Fang Heng attacked the Shrine of Bones with all his might and was faced with a crisis. Then, Teacher Pu Shi suddenly resurrected and controlled the King Guard.
Too many things happened in a few seconds. It seemed as if the players were sitting on a roller coaster and their emotions were going up and down.
Pu Shi said in a deep voice, “Fang Heng! Purify it!”
“Understood!”
Fang Heng also did not know what had happened to Teacher Pu Shi. He had just confirmed that Teacher Pu Shi was not breathing at all.
“Who cares!”
Fang Heng did not think too much. With a look, he understood Teacher Pu Shi’s intentions. He gripped the holy spear of purification in his hand tightly and rushed towards the King Guard.
“Chi!!”
The golden spear pierced into the King Guard’s skeletal body.
Fang Heng knew very well that he could not deal any damage just by stabbing. The purification effect on the holy spear of purification was the source of the damage!
The blood shadow attack and the blood blade effect of the holy weapon of the vampires were activated at the same time. Fang Heng gripped the spear in his hand tightly and continued to stab forward.
“Purify! Purify!!!”
Facing the King Guard that was already controlled by Teacher Pu Shi, in addition to Fang Heng’s Holy Light attribute equipment set that had just been destroyed by the King Guard, Fang Heng’s agility was increased to the maximum.
Without the additional weakening effect of the redundant equipment, Fang Heng’s agility was increased to the maximum!
Fang Heng crazily waved the holy spear of purification in his hand. The long spear condensed into a shadow and continuously stabbed out!
Stakes!
The purification effect was repeatedly triggered and continuously exploded on the King Guard!
Every time the purifying aura of the Holy Light exploded, a large amount of death aura would be emitted from the King Guard!
Fang Heng could clearly feel that the strength of the King Guard was rapidly weakening.
“Bang!!”
The purifying effect was triggered again and Fang Heng’s pupils constricted.
The soul fire in the eyes of the King Guard in front of him began to tremble violently.
Boom!!
In the next moment, the King Guard exploded in front of Fang Heng.
A massive aura of death exploded out with an irresistible strength!
“F*ck!”
Fang Heng cursed in his heart. He immediately used both hands to block in front of him, controlling his body from being blasted away by the incoming aura.
Eh?
What was that thing?
Fang Heng maintained his balance in mid-air. He could clearly see a dark light rapidly fusing into his right hand along with the exploding aura.
When he landed, Fang Heng immediately raised his right hand to check.
What the hell!?
Fine black lines quickly spread from his arm to his body.
Curse? Special magic? Or mutation?
It didn’t seem good!
Fang Heng’s heart jumped. He raised his left hand to release the blood blade and was about to cut off his palm to stop the black lines from spreading. Just as he raised his hand, suddenly, an illusion flashed in front of Fang Heng’s eyes again.
Fang Heng was very clear that this was an illusion!
He was surrounded by an endless desert. In the deepest part of the aura of death, a huge tomb stood there. The black aura covered the sand, and countless black King Guards knelt on the ground devoutly.
“Bang!!”
The illusion in front of Fang Heng exploded!
A line of game hints appeared on his vision.
[Hint: Player has obtained the mark of the King Guard-curse, player’s strength +0.5, physique +0.5.]
Hmm?
Curse?
Why could a curse increase one’s attribute?
Was it a good thing or a bad thing?
Fang Heng was stunned.
He looked at his arm again, and the black aura spread to more than ten centimeters below the joint of his arm before it stopped. Then, it quickly darkened.
Alright… it was useless to chop off his arm now..
Fang Heng tried to shake his arm, but he found that there was no anomaly in his right arm.
Right, Teacher Pu Shi should know what that thing was.
Fang Heng frowned and looked up at Teacher Pu Shi.
He saw that Pu Shi was staring at him.
Pu Shi shook his head at him and then nodded.
What was he doing?
Fang Heng felt confused.
He nodded and then shook his head. What was the meaning of this?
At the entrance of the central hall, the player saw that the King Guard was easily eliminated by Fang Heng and Teacher Pu Shi. They were pleasantly surprised and walked into the hall one after another.
“Teacher Pu Shi!”
The players from the Necromancer Association gathered around.
Li Qingran saw Teacher Pu Shi and her eyes reddened slightly.
He was a lich.
She could tell at a glance that Teacher Pu Shi had completed the lich’s evolution.
“Teacher, you…”
“Now is not the time to talk about this.”
Pu Shi raised his hand to stop everyone from continuing. His gaze quickly swept over Fang Heng.
Previously, the entire central region had undergone a mutation. At a critical moment, Pu Shi knew that he would die. He chose to forcefully evolve into a lich in an attempt to save his life.
However, this was only to delay his death.
The lich’s evolution had a slim chance of survival. Under such circumstances, it was almost impossible to succeed.
Unexpectedly, by chance, Fang Heng touched the Shrine of Bones and activated it, allowing Pu Shi to successfully absorb the strength of the Shrine of Bones and successfully complete the lich’s evolution at the last moment.
After advancing into a lich, the necromancer could obtain a great increase in strength and almost eternal life in a short period of time.
However, at the same time, the necromancer’s various abilities were also permanently solidified, losing the possibility of further advancement.
Pu Shi didn’t feel any regret. Being able to survive was already very good.
Everything was because of Fang Heng.
Eh?
Pu Shi felt something again and turned to look at the stone slab at the entrance of the cave.
“What’s that?”
