Chapter 1014: Chapter 629: The Nine Dragon-Slaying Heroes and the Necromancer_1 Chapter 1014: Chapter 629: The Nine Dragon-Slaying Heroes and the Necromancer_1 Under the twin moons, although Leo Ray wore a smile, what he exuded was a chilling sensation.

Despite the other party appearing harmless, Leo Ray wouldn’t be fooled by their appearance or their excuses.

It should be known that the infamy of necromancers, which echoed throughout the continent, was primarily due to their ruthless and treacherous nature – honing their skills through the slaughter of innocents.

This could be seen from the Wasp Steele who was killed in the small woods of Cyan Town, the Baron killed in the Grand Duke Mansion of Crystal Kingdom, and the necromancer who cast the Lethal Curse on Benson before dying.

Moreover, this person had suddenly appeared not far from his territory, undoubtedly posing a significant threat to him and his subordinates.

Gazing at Leo Ray’s cold smile, the female necromancer couldn’t help but show a hint of fear on her wheat-colored face, and hurriedly replied: “Answering the human, my name is Lina. I came here following my master’s order to cultivate wholeheartedly.”

“Following your master’s orders, to cultivate wholeheartedly?”

Staring into the other party’s terrified eyes, Leo Ray expressionlessly continued to ask, “So you came here alone?”

“Indeed, I am but a lone woman, with no companions!”

The female necromancer, still suspended in midair by Taylor, heavily nodded her head.

When Leo Ray heard this, a clear voice from Red Night came through his mind talk: “Reporting to the Lord, the three of us have searched the secluded land thoroughly and found no trace of other people.”

“Very well, stay hidden.”

Hearing this, Leo Ray nodded thoughtfully.

From the current situation, it seemed that this self-proclaimed Lina, the necromancer, posed little threat, and her words did not sound false.

However, the most crucial question remained unsolved.

That was, with her Tier 3 Peak strength alone, it was impossible for her to summon a large scale army of the undead. Furthermore, there was no clue as to why she would destroy the army of the undead.

“If there are any questions, please ask, and I will be more than willing to share everything I know!”

Across from him, the self-proclaimed Lina seemed even more distraught, her eyes welling up with tears as she implored, “Please spare my life, human lord!”

“Goodness, I seem to be taking on the role of the bad guy in the face of a notoriously evil necromancer?”

Thinking this in his heart, Leo Ray couldn’t help but curl his lips slightly before asking, “Tell me about what happened just now.”

“Answering the human, I never expected things to develop to this point.”

Lina’s wheat-colored cheeks showed a complex blend of embarrassment and confusion as she replied, “The cave I was in just now was where my master once resided in seclusion. I intended to follow my master’s orders and cultivate wholeheartedly here, but something unimaginable happened.”

“An unimaginable event?”

Leo Ray nodded slightly, signaling for her to continue.

“Before I left, my master taught me three spells. The first was to remove the outer guardians, the Clay Soldiers. The second was to remove the Stone Gatekeeper at the entrance of the secluded land. The third was to activate the hidden defenses in the secluded land.”

Lina blinked her long eyelashes and continued with a furrowed brow, “However, when I stepped into the secluded land and chanted the first spell to remove the Clay Soldiers’ defense, nothing happened. According to my master, they should have come out to greet me…”

Upon hearing this, although Leo Ray maintained a scrutinizing expression, he couldn’t help but find the situation somewhat amusing.

Needless to say, those formidable Tier 3 Mud People had long since been vaporized by Red Night’s Dragon Breath.

“Since my master warned me of the danger posed by the Clay Soldiers, as their overall strength was far superior to mine, when the first spell didn’t work, I thought I had remembered the order of the spells incorrectly, and hastily chanted the second spell.”

As she spoke, Lina’s expression grew even more puzzled, continuing, “But the second spell had no effect either…”

Across from her, Leo Ray sighed silently and remained quiet.

Those two Stone Knights guarding the entrance of the secluded land had already fallen under Taylor and Red Night’s one-hit kills.

“Seeing that the second spell also had no effect, I panicked and, without hesitation, recited the third spell, which successfully activated the hidden defenses of the secluded land…”

Lina sighed softly, her eyebrows drooping as she said, “As a result, I created a disaster.”

“So, the undead demon beasts that were summoned were originally the hidden defenses of the secluded land?”

After listening to the female necromancer’s words, Leo Ray stroked his chin, nodding thoughtfully.
