Swamp Lord with an Intelligence System-Chapter 406 - 185: Prophetic Element Abilities, the Unavoidable War (Part 2)
The Fire of the Soul burning within the skull emitted a ghostly blue glow.
As they moved, the bones rubbed against each other, creating a distinct clattering sound that was exceptionally loud in the quiet environment.
Leading them was an undead warrior wielding a White Bone Longsword. Being at Level 10 wasn’t considered high, but the skeleton warriors behind were all at Level 9.
As he was observing.
Ah~ Ah~ Ah~
A series of gruesome cries rang out as ravens, decayed to the point of exposing white bones, swept across the sky.
The pungent stench accompanied the air currents and hit him.
Each half-meter long white-boned raven was at Level 10...
Lear’s gaze grew solemn.
These were just the outermost forces, already so vicious... The dragon lich was likely much stronger than anticipated.
He took a deep breath and continued inward.
The power of authority masked all scents, and the Shadow of the Mist distorted the light, allowing him to move freely through the forest.
Along the way, he encountered five more undead patrols...
Furthermore, the number increased each time, all of Level 9 and above.
In Lorand City, a Level 9 army was already the main force.
But among the undead, they were just patrol minions.
He recalled the intel from the undead spy—the dragon lich returned from the Undead Plane.
Now it seemed a bit more credible.
After delving several kilometers and passing through a grove of exceptionally tall trees, his vision suddenly cleared ahead.
Reflected in Lear’s pupils was a castle built from white bones.
The castle walls were over 50 meters high, equivalent to multi-story buildings.
The wide walls were crammed with countless skeleton soldiers, beyond counting.
Sinister siege engines made of corpses were placed sporadically, exuding a tyrannical aura.
Once they launched an attack, even a giant dragon would have to retreat.
Behind the bone walls were arrow towers standing like fangs, equipped with heavy crossbows and numerous undead archers.
The castle’s center housed a gigantic Mage Tower towering at a hundred meters.
At its peak, a pale Magic Ball formed from energy floated, with magic power surging toward it.
From a far distance, one could feel the terrifying energy hidden within that Magic Ball.
Lear took a deep breath, his gaze deepening.
Based solely on the current observations, the power controlled by the dragon lich was unimaginably strong!
It was definitely a formidable foe; an advanced monster map!
But that alone wasn’t enough. How could he infiltrate and gather more intelligence?
While he was surveying the bone castle before him, suddenly, the pale Magic Ball atop the high tower erupted with fierce energy.
The entire sky was shrouded in a chilling aura.
A ghostly blue glow of the Fire of the Soul slowly illuminated within the Magic Ball, resembling an eye.
It suddenly looked towards Lear’s direction.
Lear’s heart skipped.
The adversary had discovered him!!
Right then, a hidden undead visage under a black robe appeared on the Magic Ball.
Empty eyes stared at him coldly.
"Outsider... You’ve stepped into the forbidden land!"
"You carry the scent of the Swamp... Are you from the Swamp force that killed the undead spy?"
"No, you have a scent exceedingly close to the Death Prophecy..."
"A prophetic one!"
"Indeed, my opportunity for power restoration and breakthrough lies on this land!"
The tone bore some excitement and eagerness.
One could see the Fire of the Soul within its skull burning ever brighter.
Lear’s gaze narrowed slightly, feeling a strong sense of danger the instant it discovered him.
Such a sensation had never occurred even when facing the God of Combat and the Beastman God in Lorand City.
The adversary possessed power capable of harming him... But he wielded authority!
This undead was not to be underestimated.
Moreover, the other party’s words carried incredibly informative clues.
The adversary came to the Wilderness because of a prophecy?!
He thought about the priest from the Night Shadow Clan, that life-gambling divination old spider!
Was such a Prophetic Element ability now so commonplace? 𝒇𝙧𝙚𝓮𝙬𝙚𝓫𝒏𝓸𝓿𝓮𝒍.𝓬𝙤𝓶
A bit absurd...
His mind churned, his gaze turning cold.
"Prophecy? Just a bunch of theatrical tricks... I came to see who Weilu City’s next enemy is."
"Undead, I wonder who lent you the courage to spy on the Swamp."
The dragon lich was taken aback, its expression showing some disbelief.
"You, a lowly human, dare speak to me this way?"
"What, do you think you aren’t even qualified to stand and listen to me? Kneeling is fine too."
F@#k!!
That lowly bastard!!
The dragon lich seldom felt such agitation.
Who gave this human the courage to so blatantly disregard him?!
The Fire of the Soul jumped suddenly.
"You’re courting death!!!"
The Magic Ball erupted with fierce energy, condensing into a Death Ray, shooting directly and covering the entire range where Lear stood.
The dragon lich revealed some cold contempt in its heart—this Mage Tower was built during his peak!
Even though it suffered some damage in the last battle, it could still easily obliterate life forms below the Extraordinary, even heavily injuring the Extraordinary!
Based on the other party’s soul aura, they were only at level fourteen or fifteen, as insignificant as ants!
The ray capable of destroying everything pierced through, just as it was about to obliterate the presence hidden in the mist.
Clang~
A sound like a blade being unsheathed exploded, and a terrifying battle intent that shook its very being slashed out from the other’s body.
Tsss~
The astounding battle intent directly extinguished the Death Ray capable of heavily injuring the Extraordinary.
