Suddenly, something came to Gudern's mind and he spoke quickly.

Wait a minute, can you take a turn and go to that mountainous area?

What? Helisa asked while also changing direction and flying in the direction pointed by Gudern.

A lot of orc scouts appeared in my territory some time ago. At that time, an imperial cavalry encountered them while investigating in this area.

This mountainous area is where they fought. That night I happened to see a situation nearby and came to support.

While Gudern gave a brief explanation, the two of them were already over the battlefield.

Looking at the slightly silent jungle below, Helisa also controlled the magic to slowly let the two of them land.

Helisa, who has extraordinary spiritual power, can find a lot of dark red blood stains and traces of battles with a simple glance.

So, you came here just to see the battlefield ruins?

No, this matter is very complicated. I just had a little clue...be careful!

boom--

As soon as Gudern finished speaking, Helena released a stream of flames that directly devoured the attacking orc carrion.

Seeing that the danger was over, Gudern also dismissed the newly condensed fireball technique.

I was just thinking about why there are so many dirtbags on the ground. It turns out they are undead transformed from corpses...

But it's interesting that these undead can actually block my mental search.

Helisa muttered to herself. At the same time, many undead orcs emerged from the soil in the surrounding open space.

After a while, the two of them were surrounded by more than a hundred undead orcs.

The breeze blew by, and a foul smell of rotting corpses mixed with the earthy breath also drifted up.

Frowning slightly, Helisa took out her staff from the space magic weapon.

Fire flames, burning!

As the magic power was guided from the staff, a butterfly made of fire elements flew towards the undead orcs on all sides.

There were bursts of slight explosions, and a ghostly fire that could not be extinguished was ignited on the undead body before it started to move.

Looking at the fire-element butterflies flying in the sky, Gudern's scalp couldn't help but feel numb.

How much mental power does it take to use such spectacular magic?

If the extraordinary level can use such powerful magic, how powerful must the legendary level be?

Suddenly, Gudern became more yearning and looking forward to magical power.

But looking at the flames igniting on the undead, Gudern suddenly felt worried.

This place is close to the forest. If the flames spread in and cause a fire, it would be a disaster.

Helisa also seemed to see Gudern's worry here and said calmly.

My magic flame only works on the undead and will not ignite surrounding trees.

Seeing Helisa's explanation, Gudern was relieved.

Looking at the undead beings swallowed up by the fire around them, the blazing flames melted through their highly decomposed corpses in just a few seconds.

Before some of the undead took a few steps, they fell heavily to the ground and crawled forward with difficulty until the last bit was completely swallowed up by the gunpowder.

It was such a horrifying scene that Gudern couldn't help but get goosebumps.

Speaking of which, why didn't you cremate these bodies?

It was already late at night and early in the morning when the battle was resolved. We were afraid that there were still orcs hiding in the surroundings, so we withdrew after a simple burial.

After Gudern explained this, he said with a hint of helplessness: Who knows these orc corpses can be turned into undead, otherwise I would have cremated them no matter what I said.

Well, your worry may be right. Helisa looked at the direction of the elemental veins, and then continued.

Although there is the influence of the magic assimilation of the elemental leyline nearby, it will take at least several years to turn the corpse into an undead.

Looking at the degree of decay of these corpses, it is estimated that they will not last more than three months. In such a short period of time, unless someone does something, and with the help of elemental veins, it is possible to complete the undead transformation.

Besides, I checked the surroundings just before landing, and there was no trace of the undead aura. This also shows that these undead orcs have been specially processed to avoid ordinary mental scanning checks.

Listening to the analysis results of professionals, Gooden's heart sank slightly, and the thing he was most worried about finally appeared.

He originally guessed that there might be more than just this number of orc troops in Qingyuan Ridge, and now the orc corpses that had been transformed into special undead could also reflect this.

coming.

Gudern, who was thinking about how to deal with the orc threat in the future, suddenly heard Helisa's slightly serious voice.

When he came back to his senses and looked around, he saw a two-meter-five-meter-tall lion-man undead staring at the two of them with deathly eyes.

With the special treatment of undead and the supply of elemental earth veins, are there any signs of breakthrough to the extraordinary?

Hearing Helisa's murmur, Gudern was shocked. Is this guy going to break through to the extraordinary? !

Immediately, Gudern also released several magic spells and began to prepare for battle.

Seeing Gudern's nervous look, Helisa couldn't help but chuckle.

There are only signs of breakthrough, but it is not extraordinary. What are you afraid of? Next, watch carefully and study hard. I will treat it as a practical lesson for you.

Helisa said and took two steps towards the lion-man undead. The lion-man who was still walking slowly on the front line suddenly turned to running at this moment, raising his weapon high and sprinting towards the two of them.

Facing the charging attack of the lion-man undead, Helisa did not panic at all. She raised her hand and cast two defensive magics. Then he explained to Gudern.

The mage profession does not have the strong physique of a physical practitioner. You must pay attention to your own protection during battle.

At the same time, remember that you don't just release offensive magic during the battle. Sometimes some inconspicuous magic can cause a lot of trouble to the opponent.

While explaining, the lion-man undead had also rushed to a position less than ten meters away from Helisha.

Although Gudern still has great faith in Helisa's strength, now that the lion-man undead have rushed to this distance without any reaction, he can't help but feel a little nervous.

In the next second, Helisa released a mage's hand and appeared at the ankle of the undead lion.

The sudden pull made the lion-man undead unable to react for a moment, and he lost his balance and fell heavily to the ground.

Controlling the distance of the battle is the most important thing when we fight. Occasionally interspersing some magic that makes it difficult for the opponent to advance and move is our most important purpose.

Chain of flames, softening technique, solidifying technique, magic wall...

As Helisa spoke, she saw the lion-man undead rise again, and then four more magic spells directly plunged its lower body into the earth, locking it firmly and unable to move.

Facing the lion-man undead at the peak of the master's level, Helisa only used five kinds of magic to firmly control it.

All kinds of magic have different effects. Sometimes we only need a little cooperation to make it have unexpected effects, just like now.

Looking at the lion-man undead that had been completely rendered harmless, Gudern also seemed a little surprised.

This guy looked so bluffing that he stopped eating in less than ten seconds?

For an enemy that has been controlled like this now, you can do whatever you want at this time...

Hearing the words with a slightly strange tone, Gudern scratched his head.

After taking control of the lion-man undead, Helisa stepped forward directly to check on the other party's situation.

If it was just to kill the opponent, less than five magic spells would have been used. With one strike, the meteors and flames were smashed down, directly burying the ashes with the earth.

Seeing the helpless and furious struggling of the undead lion, Gudern also gained courage and walked forward to get closer to him.

At this time, Helisa was releasing all kinds of inspection magic to find out what was happening with the undead lions.

There is no aura of the undead, he can avoid her spiritual search, and he can also rely on the power of the elemental veins to strengthen and upgrade himself. The combination of these things makes Helisa also interested.

After a few operations, a rune made of elements suddenly appeared on the forehead of the undead lion.

Seeing this thing, Helisa also showed a trace of solemnity on her face.

What is this?

Gudern also noticed the changes on the other person's face and asked casually.

This is the magical inscription of a professional shaman unique to the orc clan. There are only a few records of this thing in the college library. This is the first time I have seen the real thing.

Hearing what Helisa said, Gudern became a little interested in the thing in front of him.

As a senior teacher at the Imperial Academy of Magic, it was the first time for Herissa to see this thing, which was enough to show that the origin of this thing was rare and mysterious.

But why would this mysterious thing appear on an orc who died in battle?

Has the empire reported any mysterious information to you about the situation of the orcs in the territory?

This matter is still under investigation and the results should be available soon.

Hearing what Gudern said, Helisha couldn't help but cursed in a low voice.

This bunch of officials who are just eating corpses have not yet completed their investigation into this matter...

Helisa's sudden curse made Gudern a little surprised.

And then Helisa explained the problem of the magic inscription.

The magic inscription is very mysterious. I don't know much about it, but one thing is certain. The caster of this thing must be higher than the level of the person being cast. Even if it is the same level, it must be a small level higher. .”

Judging from the current situation, the lion-man undead can reach the point where it is about to break through the extraordinary, and it still has not escaped from control, which is enough to prove that the strength of the shaman behind it is definitely extraordinary.

For the Orc Empire army to dispatch extraordinary shamans, there must be an army of ten thousand people behind them. If this is the case, let alone your support, even if all the troops of Jinyuan City are dispatched, they may not be able to save this person. A cavalry.

But the other party didn't take action to kill you. The only explanation is that the other party didn't want to alert the enemy.

After listening to Helisa's words, a cold wind suddenly blew on Gudern's back.

Why was he on the verge of life and death again?

In addition, according to the normal way of dealing with orcs at the border, after the solution, the army members have to report it and have the bodies disposed of. But now, after all this time, no one has come to dispose of the bodies...

Speaking of this, Helisa couldn't help but grit her silver teeth and said angrily.

As long as there is someone who follows normal procedures to check and deal with it, they can also find the problems here. If they can't be solved, they can report them to stronger people.

According to the promotion speed of the lion undead, it can take up to two months to advance to the extraordinary with the help of the elemental veins.

When the national war breaks out, the army will be mobilized intensively. If the shamans behind them attack the surrounding towns at this time, they will all fall in less than a week. Coupled with the undead infection, half of the northern territory may be completely fell within a month.

Gudern did not expect such serious consequences.

He originally thought this was just a simple case of Charleson colluding with the orcs to treason, but he didn't expect it to be so involved now.
