Chapter 1034: Chapter 318 Necromancer_3

Leonard Churchill followed the instructions.

Before he could ask anything else, Elder Clinton suddenly lost his “breath”.

Leonard Churchill did not dare to be careless and concealed his presence.

The next instant, a fierce battle erupted in the Underground Palace.

Then, suddenly, Leonard Churchill saw the mud pill that the old man had stuffed in his ear and guessed how those people had been bewitched.

…

“Captain Les, why are you attacking us?”

“Damn it, Lame horse, why did you activate the Magic Energy Bomb?”

“Careful! They’ve been possessed by Evil Spirits too!”

“…”

The vast Underground Palace instantly became chaotic.

Thousands of “bewitched” mercenaries turned their blades against their comrades all at once.

More than eighty percent of the mercenaries were controlled, including Fifth Tier and Sixth Tier card masters.

This overwhelming number made the battle almost a foregone conclusion.

The crowd was dense, and in the blink of an eye, the Trial Group suffered heavy casualties.

Not only the mercenaries, but even among the guards brought by the three nobles, there were quite a few bewitched.

And to their horror, they found that spells to disperse Undead Spirits and Mental Pollution were completely useless!

They could not think of any means to exempt themselves from that mysterious control.

Prince Salo and Princess Betty were anxiously surrounded by dozens of people, and they were quickly cornered.

The reversal of the situation was so sudden that it left no time for anyone to react.

Fear spread rapidly.

In the distance, Leonard Churchill and Elder Clinton, who had collided and died, avoided the first wave of attacks from their comrades.

Although he had sealed off nearly all the signs of life in his physical body, his shadow still lurked in the darkness, observing carefully.

At this moment, he had also understood the situation regarding the ancient corpses scattered all over the ground when they had first entered.

The “monster” hadn’t even shown itself yet, and these thousands were likely to perish here.

The vast majority would die without understanding what had happened.

And the group with Prince Salo, which concentrated eighty percent of the high-end combat power of the Trial Group, although outnumbered by tens of times, didn’t look like they would be wiped out quickly.

But they were definitely not going to fare well.

However, at this time, Prince Salo suddenly shouted an order to someone, “Don’t retreat!”

They had come all this way, and with the coffin right in front of them, it was inconceivable to give up like this.

When Leonard Churchill heard this, he knew these guys still had some tricks up their sleeves.

He had witnessed the ability to teleport through space in the Plague Marsh before and thought these people probably had similar lifesaving items.

The Underground Palace couldn’t trap them.

At this moment, Leonard Churchill controlled his shadow to look at “Old Karen”.

In the current situation, this person could no longer conceal himself.

He dissipated a Dark Gold Card in his hand with a flick of his wrist, and behind him, the Demon God’s Phantom appeared, covered in black dragon scales. He stomped his foot and instantly yelled, “Corporeal Field Display!”

Leonard Churchill watched and thought to himself without surprise, “A Domain, a Seventh Grade strongman! This guy finally made a move…”

Old Karen indeed was an official hidden among the Adventurers.

Once the Domain was deployed, hundreds of mercenaries around him simultaneously stiffened.

He then took out another black Sorcery Card, his eyes sharp, and declared, “Explode!”

The Spell took effect instantly.

Suddenly, a series of “crack and pop” sounds erupted, and body parts flew chaotically through the crowd.

“Corpse Explosion? So he’s not an Archaeologist, but a Necromancer from the [Clubs 9 – Ghost Talker] sequence…”

Although Leonard Churchill had never witnessed this spell personally, he had come across its description in Classic Books.

It was a signature spell of high-tier Necromancers.

The principle of the spell was to detonate the bioenergy within a freshly deceased body, creating a biological bomb.

Its power was roughly equivalent to a card master instantaneously detonating several times their latent potential, which was quite significant.

Normally, one corpse could kill or injure several Ranked Card Masters of the same tier.

With Old Karen’s move of Corpse Explosion, he detonated dozens of nearby bodies, instantly clearing out the people within a hundred meters.

“Impressive…”

Leonard Churchill silently nodded to himself in admiration.

“Bang!”

“Bang!”

“Bang!”

“…”

And the “Corpse Explosion” was just the beginning. Old Karen detonated dozens of Curse Cards in succession, quickly clearing a large area.

The ground was strewn with severed limbs and intestines, the crimson gore spreading across the land.

However, it was after this bloody explosion that everyone finally noticed something odd.

In the cracked open skulls of those blasted apart, creatures resembling spiders with tentacles were parasitizing the brains.

“Ominous Heart Eating Insects!”

“Damn it, so it was these bloody insects! The larvae of these things are smaller than air particles, entering the brain through the ear canal, then growing and eventually taking control of the person!”

“Stop wasting time! They have been parasitized, and the larvae have matured, they’ve long been dead!”

“Weren’t these poisonous insects extinct for tens of thousands of years? How could they appear here…”

“…”

Someone recognized the origins of the small tentacled creatures and turned pale with fright.

At this moment, everyone understood why the previous banishing spells had been ineffective.

Because this wasn’t a case of Evil Spirit Possession, but physical parasitism.

From the moment they entered the tomb, the Trial Group had been parasitized by these insects without knowing when it began.

Leonard Churchill, watching those creatures using the host brains to draw sustenance, also felt secretly relieved.

If he hadn’t sealed his orifices earlier, he wouldn’t have known how he died.

This Extraordinary World really is full of all sorts of oddities.

…

With things having come to this head, everyone knew there was no salvation for those who had been parasitized.

The group no longer had any reservations in taking action.

Normally, nearly five thousand parasitized individuals would have been enough to cause heavy damage to Prince Salo’s hundred or so people, if not wipe them out completely, but now they were engaged in a battle where both sides could suffer.

However, there was a Seventh Grade Necromancer here.

Old Karen’s use of Corpse Explosion to clear the field was just the beginning. With the appearance of the Demon God’s Phantom behind him, a gigantic Hexagram Array took shape under his feet.

Waves of Curse Power flowed into the array, instantly sweeping a dense aura of Undeath throughout the Underground Cave, infusing the corpses on the ground.

On a second glance, all those “people” that had been blown to death were now standing up again.

Summoning Technique is one of the Necromancer’s specialties.

For a Necromancer, corpses are weapons—the more, the better.

Old Karen directed the Undead Spirit Army to attack the parasitized individuals.

After the two sides clashed, a mass of bodies fell, but with the invocation of undead spells, they rose again.

In the blink of an eye, the situation shifted from one-sided to evenly matched.

And then, the Undead Spirit Army grew increasingly vast.

The more they killed, the more swelled their ranks.

In the midst of everyone’s stunned silence, this person took control of the situation in a short time!

He alone, commanding an Undead Spirit Army, had completely taken control of the situation!

The crisis that had seemed like a certain wipeout was reversed by a single individual in the blink of an eye.

…

“So that’s how it is…”

Leonard Churchill also understood seeing this.

Prince Salo and his group of people recruiting so many mercenaries wasn’t just for help with the exploration.

Now it seemed the more crucial goal was to provide Old Karen with some mobile corpses.

A Seventh Grade Necromancer with thousands of corpses ready to be blasted into Undead could nearly steamroll everything.

With the crisis averted, Leonard Churchill too breathed a sigh of relief.

But suddenly, something occurred to him.

Insects?

Why does it feel like a strategy of the White Family?

Not the White Family of the current East Wilderness but that of the Talun Era.

With Old Karen taking control of the situation, everyone else was left in shock.

The Prince Salo respectfully addressed him with a “Teacher.”

Only then did everyone understand his identity.

With Undead to handle the aftermath, Old Karen was not concerned.

He walked not far from Prince Salo, and in a moment when no one was expecting, he suddenly thrust a bone spear, piercing through the heart of one individual.

This scene frightened the onlookers, who thought he too had been parasitized.

But before everyone could fully express their surprise, they saw a humanoid figure on the impaled corpse, struggling as if it wanted to burst out of the skin.

Leonard Churchill watched this scene from a distance and chuckled to himself, “So the White Family’s people have indeed been rooted out…”
