Chapter 239
: It was quite indifferent when fighting against the shadow of the dead that had previously been destroyed.
But now I see the strange power, so blasphemous to the dead, turning the "Shadow Thorn" Tucker who just saw it with my own eyes before his bones were cold, into the shadow of the deceased, killing each other with his previous partners.
It still made Yihua frown slightly, feeling a little disgusted.
Although as a necromancer who also desecrates the dead and resurrects corpses, this idea may be a bit too high-sounding.
Before all the apprentices present could recover from the shock.
One after another, the shadows of the dead, like dumplings, appeared in all directions of the hundreds of apprentices present, surrounding them.
"Five, ten, twenty! How could there be such a number of shadows of the dead appearing at the same time!" "
With our strength as only first- and second-class apprentices, how can we compete with such a terrifying number of shadows of the dead? ? Mr. Vice-President, can you really protect us from the attacks of massive shadows of the dead?" "
Up to now, the fifth-level teachers from the outside world have not intervened in the secret world. Could it be that this is also the fifth-level teacher from the outside world? Are our mentors testing us?"
The number of shadows of the dead appearing out of thin air around them made all the Illuminati disciples present subconsciously retreat and gather together nervously.
Each of these shadows of the dead that appeared in front of him were not inferior to each other, and were even slightly stronger than the third-class undead that Yihua had defeated previously - the Death Guard.
And compared to the cumbersome and slow Death Guard, these shadows of the dead in front of us are even more difficult to guard against!
Although Yihua's many previous performances in the secret world have already established an invincible image in the hearts of the Illuminati apprentices, even third-class necromancer apprentices like Enzo cannot match him.
But it is unclear whether Yihua can protect all the apprentices present from being harmed by the massive shadows of the dead that everyone is facing now.
Most of the apprentices present were still a little unsure.
While everyone was feeling uneasy, time passed by minute by second.
After a while, when the number of shadows of the dead stopped increasing, nearly forty shadows of the dead of various shapes appeared around the Illuminati apprentices!
Judging from the fact that each Shadow of the Dead is slightly better than the third-level Undead Death Guard.
The shadows of the dead surrounded by everyone can easily destroy Enzo, the third-class necromancer apprentice, and her subordinates, who can control the limit of the undead with the help of the Dark Magic Crystal Necklace, which is composed of thirty Death Guards. The army of the undead!
Seeing the dozens of shadows of the dead forming a surrounding network that could attack the Illuminati apprentices present at any time, Yihua frowned and quickly thought of countermeasures.
Indeed, just as the Illuminati disciples present thought.
If he was alone, he could summon third-level or even fourth-level undead souls, and with the cooperation of his undead souls, he could wipe out dozens of shadows of the dead in front of him that had not yet reached the fourth-level level.
But now, because he has to protect the hundreds of Illuminati apprentices who provide him with merit points, Yihua is tied up and unable to act as he pleases.
Now, he must prioritize protecting the surrounding Illuminati apprentices from the unpredictable attacks of dozens of shadows of the dead.
Obviously, without summoning the third-class undead, he can rely on his own strength alone.
Although it took enough time, with the third-class half-dead witch body and the physique of the earth knight with unlimited life burst, he could still get rid of dozens of shadows of the dead in front of him.
But there is no guarantee that the Illuminati present will not lose one person under the attack of the massive shadows of the dead.
At this moment, dozens of shadows of the dead hundreds of meters away showed signs of disintegration one after another.
When the apprentices present saw this scene happening in front of them, they immediately recalled their reactions before the attack of the Shadow of the Dead they had seen before.
Everyone immediately realized that this was a precursor to the surrounding shadows of the dead preparing to attack the hundreds of Illuminati apprentices present.
The seemingly distant distance of hundreds of meters in front of us can be covered in just over ten seconds by the shadow of the deceased who has the ability to become invisible and blurred.
Yi Hua's eyes flashed. He had already made a decision and issued the first order to the many Illuminati apprentices present:
"All apprentices present, give up building offensive witchcraft and use all your strength to defend!"
Yi Hua's order , so that the faces of the apprentices who were building witchcraft and preparing to face the shadow of the dead showed expressions of astonishment.
In their opinion, it was difficult for Yihua alone to protect the many Illuminati apprentices present from the massive attacks of shadows of the dead coming from all directions.
So everyone said:
"Mr. Vice President, you don't have to spend your energy protecting us, we can fight!" "
Mr. Vice President, we also want to share some of the pressure for you!"
"Mr. Vice President..."
On the scene The apprentices all showed hesitation and astonishment because they did not know enough about the specific strength of the shadow of the dead that was killed by Yihua's sword.
Except for Levi, Sophia and the others, as well as the four blond young men who understand and have even faced the strange power, the other Illuminati apprentices only know that the Shadow of the Dead is very powerful, even reaching the level of a third-class apprentice.
But they couldn't tell how powerful it was.
What's more, for the Shadow of the Dead, the other apprentices present except Yihua, even if they gather fire, are just icing on the cake and cannot cause considerable damage.
If you want to eliminate the shadow of the dead, among the hundreds of apprentices on the field, the only ones you can count on are Yihua and the third- and fourth-level undead under his command.
Seeing that the dozens of shadows of the dead around him had disappeared and were attacking the Illuminati apprentices at an alarming speed, Yihua said in a short and firm voice: "I understand your thoughts,
but the shadows of the dead, It's not something you can deal with." "
The shadows of the dead that are now the embodiment of strange power in the secret world are far from the previous level of third-level apprentices. Even among third-level apprentices, they have extremely impressive capabilities. Strength!"
Seeing the apprentices around him with hesitation in their eyes, Yihua struck again while the iron was hot:
"With your strength, let alone causing damage to the third-level shadow of the dead, it is difficult to even hit the opponent! It's better to protect yourself as much as possible, so that I don't have to worry about protecting you!"
As soon as he finished speaking, Levi and "Explosive Flame" Dean, the second-class apprentices with higher prestige in the Illuminati and who have great trust in Yihua, also spoke out. Said:
"Didn't you see the scene where the 'Shadow Thorn' Tucker, who was in the top 40 in the academy competition, launched an attack without any impact, and was instantly killed by the shadow of the dead at close range?" "
Deputy The president is right! Let's do what he says! Don't let the vice-president bother to protect us during the battle!" "Nowadays, there are
various abnormal situations in the secret world that cannot be communicated with the outside world. , as well as the massive shadows of the dead attacking in front of us, all show that this apprenticeship examination has broken away from the control of the academy! If we want to survive, the only choice is to obey the command of the Vice President! "
After hearing this, a group of Illuminati apprentices came to their senses and realized that Yihua was confident in defeating the dozens of incoming Shadows of the Dead, so they gave up the offensive witchcraft that was still under construction and instead released defensive witchcraft. witchcraft.
The discussion among the many apprentices seemed long, but in fact it only lasted a few seconds.
The brief hesitation of the Illuminati apprentices present at Yihua's orders was not a distrust of Yihua, but rather a sign of being too loyal to Yihua and wanting Yihua not to worry about their safety and focus on fighting.
Although the power of the Life Orb can barely resist a relatively weak third-level attack.
But in the face of today, due to the increase in the number of death apprentices in the secret world, it has skyrocketed to the point that even at the third level, it has the strange power of medium-level damage.
The Life Orb played a negligible role and could not successfully resist attacks from strange forces.
If he is not careful, the Illuminati apprentices under Yihua who provide him with merit income will suffer a large number of attrition.
He saw a group of Illuminati apprentices releasing defensive witchcraft one after another according to his instructions.
Yi Hua glanced at the dozens of shadows of the dead that were only a hundred meters away from the crowd and would come into contact with a group of Illuminati apprentices in just a few seconds. He took a deep breath and thought to himself: "We have reached the current situation
. , it seems that we can no longer hide it too much."
You can't have your cake and eat it too.
Yi Hua knew very well that it would be as difficult as climbing to the sky if he wanted to protect all the Illuminati apprentices present under the attack of a tidal wave of strange forces without summoning third-class undead.
So he no longer hesitated, and when the strength of the second-class undead was completely insufficient, he decisively chose to summon a large number of third-class undead - the
faceless shadows to assist him in his defense.
For Yihua, who has exposed the physique of an earth knight and possesses third-level strength.
Revealing third-level power is nothing. What he is really afraid of is that by summoning third-level undead, his true identity as a third-level necromancer apprentice will be exposed.
Although most of the apprentices in the academy did not know that Yihua only had first-class qualifications at first.
But there are also people like mentor Simon and his younger brother Rey who know Yihua's original qualifications.
Yi Hua is cautious by nature. In his opinion, although Mentor Simon had previously claimed that he would not covet the opportunities that Yi Hua had obtained in the Black Bone Forest.
But that's just because Yihua didn't reveal his amazing ability to advance from a first-class apprentice to a third-class apprentice in less than three months. He could even cross ranks to enslave fourth-class undead, and his qualifications jumped from first-class to fifth-class.
Therefore, for Yi Hua, who is now in the Jiuhuan White Pagoda Branch where he is full of acquaintances, the fact that he has been promoted to the third level should not be exposed as long as possible.
The reason why Yi Hua chose to summon the Faceless Shadow instead of the other two types of third-level undead, the drowned resentment ghost and the fearful shadow, or the fourth-level undead, the declining centaur, was mainly based on strength.
Whether it is a drowned resentful ghost or a fearful shadow, in the current situation, the most it can do is compete with the incoming strange power, and it cannot play a decisive role in directly suppressing the strange power with powerful force.
And its power far exceeds that of the second-class souls, and its true identity as a third-class undead will soon be exposed.
As for the Declining Centaur, they were too powerful, and their huge size like a house could easily let other apprentices present see how extraordinary the Declining Centaur was.
He even got a glimpse of the true identity of the fourth-class undead souls of the Deceased Centaur.
The Faceless Shadow not only has Yihua's powerful strength second only to the Decline Centaur, but also relies on the talent of the ever-changing body to be able to disguise itself, so that others cannot rely on the disguised appearance of the Faceless Shadow to think of a third-class person. Undead.
Everyone present would most likely only regard the disguised faceless shadow as the effect of some kind of secret technique or some kind of precious demonized item.
In front of him, dozens of shadows of the dead attacked again, still fifty meters away.
Under the uneasy gazes of the Illuminati apprentices, the undead summoning technique that Yihua was constructing was also successfully constructed at the same time.
Ten meters away from the Illuminati disciples present, there was an open space with large purple-red flowers and grass, and the space was emitting waves of distorted fluctuations.
In an instant, twenty faceless figures disguised as Yihua appeared in the open space not far away.
The sudden appearance of these twenty faceless shadows that were exactly the same as Yihua's appearance attracted the attention of hundreds of Illuminati apprentices who gathered in the open space and were intensively building witchcraft in an attempt to resist the attacks of the shadows of the dead.
"What's going on? Pinch me!"
"Am I right? Why are there so many vice-presidents around?"
"Is it an illusion or some kind of clone witchcraft?"
appeared in front of everyone. This scene made most of the apprentices present look in disbelief and feel ridiculous.
There were also a few top second-class apprentices such as Levi, "Explosive" Dean, Anna, Sophia, etc., who immediately reacted and guessed the true identities of the twenty "Yihua" in front of them.
However, due to the Faceless Shadow's excellent disguise ability, none of the Illuminati apprentices, including Anna, Sophia, and the four new second-class apprentices who joined the Illuminati, recognized him.
Appearing around a group of Illuminati apprentices almost without warning, these twenty individuals who are exactly the same as Yihua are not actually clones of Yihua created through some secret method or witchcraft, but are composed of third-class undead—— An existence disguised as a faceless shadow.
I saw dozens of shadows of the dead traveling at high speed, only thirty or forty meters away from the apprentices.
Recalling the terrifying scream that the shadow of the deceased made when it died was comparable to second-class soul witchcraft.
If such a large number of shadows of the dead before us were in close contact with Illuminati apprentices, the distance would be less than ten meters.
I am afraid that just the soul-wounding screams made by these shadows of the dead when they died was enough to make the Illuminati apprentices present drink a bottle.
Realizing that he could not let the shadow of the dead get closer, Yihua suddenly drew his sword and slashed forward.
laugh!
A pale golden Crescent Sword Qi that stretched for more than ten meters and condensed 20% of its own life energy tore through the air at an astonishing speed and streaked forward at great speed.
The path of this pale golden crescent sword energy was covered by five shadows of the dead!
The shadow of the deceased traveling at high speed obviously had no time to avoid the crescent sword energy.
In other words, these have no concept of death. They are just the shadows of the dead that are manifested by strange forces in the form of death apprentices. They have no intention of avoiding the Crescent Sword Qi.
