I ascend to the throne of God with arcane magic - Chapter 596

Standing outside the Golden Coconut Hotel, Li Si looked at the building in front of him shrouded in the night with a solemn expression.

A legendary being has been paying attention to this hotel

No!

It should be said that he is paying attention to the girl Zhuo in the hotel!

Just now, it should be because he wanted to attack Zhuo that he was targeted by the hidden legend.

Li Si’s brain was working quickly. He had thought about whether testing this obviously extraordinary girl would cause any bad reaction.

But he did not expect that a legend would keep paying attention to Zhuo, and might even hide near Zhuo.

This legend who pays attention to the girl Zhuo is very likely the controller of this illusion, the legendary wizard Yihailes!

After all, it is quite rare for a legendary wizard to appear in this small sand sea city.

Unless the two legendary masters who appear are opposite to each other, the possibility of having two legendary masters in this illusion is still too low.

If Yihailus had been keeping an eye on Zhuo, why didn’t Li Si, as an outsider, attack Zhuo when he came into contact with him?

Li Si didn’t notice anything wrong.

Could it be that Yihailus didn’t care about strangers coming into contact with Zhuo, but he didn’t allow Zhuo to be hurt by others?

Li Si always felt that something was wrong, especially Yihailus’s behavior.

From the task introduction, it can be seen that Yihailus should be obsessed with saving his beloved, so he spent such a price to make the whole town fall into an illusion.

Time here stopped, and the residents living here all became undead creatures.

But is it a crazy and persistent person who is so indifferent when facing the possibility that his beloved may be hurt?

Just to give Li Si a warning, he didn’t appear in front of Li Si?

This is a bit inconsistent.

You must know that with Li Si’s current strength, even if Zhuo may be an undead creature, she is no different from an ant in front of him.

Li Si was just planning to test Zhuo, and he didn’t intend to hurt her.

But other people don’t know?

At least in Li Si’s opinion, if someone tried to hurt the powerless Taiya, he would not just give a warning.

Li Si’s escape distance was not far, just outside the Golden Coconut Hotel.

This distance is simply under the eyes of the legendary strongman. .

Therefore, when Li Si did not see the expected pursuit of the legendary strongman, he was a little surprised.

Could it be that the legendary wizard Yihailes himself had some problems or inconveniences, so this situation occurred?

Li Si was not sure, but he did not plan to continue to attack Zhuo in the short term.

Insufficient intelligence, even if the legendary wizard Yihailes really appeared, Li Si could not obtain more useful information.

The appearance of the legend made Li Si want to take Taiya away from the hotel and change places for a while.

Although Taiya’s strength has become much stronger after experiencing the baptism of Amandu City, it is difficult to resist a legendary wizard who hides his traces.

But in the end, Li Si still didn’t do it. Since this Yihailes hadn’t appeared in front of him before, he basically wouldn’t attack Taiya.

It would be better to let Taiya stay in the Golden Coconut Hotel. If anything unexpected happened, he could notify Li Si in time.

After thinking about it, Li Si sneaked into the shadows again and left the hotel.

In the alley in the night,

Li Si stood in the middle of the alley, and a resident of Yihailes fainted in front of him.

Judging from the clothes of this middle-aged man, he seemed to be an ordinary hawker in this small town.

Because of the arrival of the Gul Festival, it was very late for him to close the stall and go home. As a result, he ran into Li Si who was looking for the next experimenter on the way.

Without any awareness, Li Si knocked him out and let him lie in front of him.

The man’s body lay quietly on the cold ground, his body was like a dead branch broken by the wind, without the vitality of the past. His face was pale, his eyes were closed, as if he fell into an endless sleep, and his breathing was so weak that it was almost imperceptible, as if he was wandering on the edge of life and death.

Li Si first placed his right hand on the man’s chest, and then felt his warm body temperature, which was the same as that of an ordinary person, and his steadily beating heart.

Just like an ordinary person.

Li Si turned his palm into a blade and gently scratched the man’s right arm.

Without any sound, the man’s right arm broke in the middle, and the man who fainted did not react at all.

As expected!

Li Si looked at the man’s wound and nodded slightly.

The broken arm of this resident was twisted unnaturally and separated from the body, but strangely not a drop of blood oozes out.

The wound was not bright red and moist as expected, but an abnormal dead gray, like a dead tree that has lost its vitality in winter, revealing an ominous breath. In this gray, you can vaguely see the muscle fibers trembling slightly, as if looking for something.

The resident in front of him is not a living person, but has turned into a ghost-like existence.

However, it is still very different from a normal undead creature.

Li Si carefully observed the wound on the broken arm and reached out to feel the lifeless body.

After a moment, Li Si stood up and held the broken arm of the resident in his right hand.

Use the veil spell to hide the unconscious residents to avoid being discovered by other passers-by.

Li Si left the alley in a flash.

Outside the small town of Yihailes in the sand sea, on the sand dunes,

Li Si stepped on the soft sand dunes and felt relieved.

As expected, as before, the ability in space was not restricted, so he could explore this secret place more boldly.

——

Ding!

[Tip: You have left the limited area of ​​the task [Yihailes’s persistence]! Please return as soon as possible, otherwise the task will be judged as failed and cannot be accepted again! ]

[Failure countdown: 605958]——

Li Si looked at the small town shrouded in the night in the distance, and the system prompt sounded in his mind.

Hurry up!

Li Si left the small town this time not just to confirm the retreat.

Raising his hand, Li Si looked carefully at the broken arm that should have appeared in his hand.

But the broken arm, which was originally lifeless, has now turned into a pile of gray-white dust, scattered on the sand dunes.

Li Si still held some ash from the broken arm in his hand, and he did not feel any special breath from it.

After taking a look at the dust in his hand, Li Si did not delay and quickly returned to the alley.

He did not want to fail the mission because of a long absence.

When Li Si returned and looked at the unconscious resident, his arm was clearly cut off by Li Si just now, but it was intact at this moment, as if nothing had happened.

It was indeed like this!

Li Si nodded, then lifted the concealment spell and left here.

The residents in the small town are not so much undead as undead, but their bodies are different from those common undead creatures.

Undead refers to the spirit or consciousness left after the death of a living being, and is an evil creature that appears because of its own resentment or other factors.

The most common undead are evil creatures such as skeleton soldiers and corpses, and the souls of the dead are placed in the bones of their lives.

These newly born undead are very weak and have no wisdom, and can only act on instinct.

Ordinary people can defeat these undead creatures, but the biggest feature of undead creatures is that they are not afraid of death.

Only if these undead are given enough number, time and space, they will constantly devour the soul fire of other undead like raising poisonous insects, and strengthen their own strength.

When a certain degree is reached, the undead will give birth to new wisdom, and they will be almost completely different from the two people in their lifetime. The memory of the undead in their lifetime has almost no great influence.

For this reason, almost every human town will have a cemetery guarded by the Church of the Gods to bury the dead residents and reduce the appearance of undead as much as possible.

This kind of undead, if there is no support for the soul fire, it is almost impossible to survive.

But at the same time, there is another possibility for the existence of the undead, that is, to become a ghost without a body.

The so-called ghost is the undead whose soul has been strengthened and can exist independently. Basically, they reappear in the world with their appearance in their lifetime, usually without a fixed form, and ordinary people cannot see ghosts with the naked eye.

The situation of the residents of Ihalus is actually very similar to that of ghosts.

Although they have entities, they are not completely dependent on the body like the skeleton soldiers.

In Li Si’s opinion, these forms of existence are more like using undead spells to bind their souls to the small town called Yihailes.

In other words, the survival of these residents depends on this city, not their bodies.

So when Li Si took the broken arm of the resident away from the small town, the broken arm lost its connection with the soul and turned into ashes.

The residents in the small town, however, recovered their bodies.

From this, it can be seen that these residents should rely on this city to exist, and their souls are almost unaffected.

So, all the people in the city have been turned into undead by Yihailes, so it is called [a small town stagnant in time]?

After all, a city of undead cannot have new changes, and will only continue the previous life day after day.

Although this makes sense, Li Si feels that it is not that simple.

If it is just like this, then this legendary mission is too simple.

There should be something I haven’t noticed

Li Si thought about all the things he had seen and heard since entering this small town, but he didn’t gain anything new.

Can I only wait for the Gul Festival the day after tomorrow?

There is nothing special about life in this small town, except that the existence of the Gul Festival makes Li Si feel a little strange.

God Gul?

Is there any special connection with the legendary necromancer Ihalus?

Otherwise, it is impossible to explain why the city lord would appear specifically at the Gul Festival.

And it seems that this is something that everyone in the city will participate in. Li Si doesn’t think that a legendary existence will appear every year for this event.

Unless this matter is closely related to him.

God

Could it be that this Ihalus wants to embark on the path of becoming a god and become a god?

And the god Gul is his incarnation. He collects faith in this way?

Li Si is not sure. This guess seems very likely to be true, but there are also many loopholes.

First of all, the people in this city are basically undead. Although they all have souls, the power of faith generated is extremely rare and extremely complex.

Otherwise, wouldn’t those legendary liches who controlled the Scourge of the Undead be able to easily obtain a huge amount of faith power?

Even if there are outsiders coming to this city, Ihalus does not welcome the entry of outsiders. It seems that he is aloof and does not want to collect faith at all.

However, Old Milo also said that every time Ihalus celebrated the Gul Festival, many outsiders came here specially to participate in the celebration of this small city.

Although Li Si had never heard of the Gul Festival before, if what Old Milo said was true, it is very likely that Ihalus had such an idea before.

So why did it stop now?

Is it because of Zhuo’s departure?

Li Si’s thoughts began to diverge, but no matter how he thought about it, the information he knew now always felt disconnected.

It was as if many parts of the history of this small city did not match each other, giving people a weird and uncomfortable feeling.

What happened to cause this result?

Perhaps the purpose of the legendary wizard Ihalus to create this undead city in the illusion was because of this.

Under the cover of the deep night, a lonely three-story building stands in the heart of the town, as if it is a giant forgotten by time, quietly guarding unknown secrets.

This building is made entirely of huge gray rocks, and the stones fit tightly together, revealing an inviolable solidity and vicissitudes. The thin moonlight barely outlines its sharp outlines, adding a bit of coldness and mystery.

There is a dead silence in the small building, without any lights, and even the slightest light seems to be swallowed up by its thick stone walls. The windows are closed, like a pair of silent eyes, rejecting the curiosity and prying of the outside world.

Such silence makes people involuntarily think that perhaps there has been no one here for a long time, and it has become an abandoned ghost house.

The surrounding streets are empty and lonely, with only an occasional night breeze blowing, rolling up a few fallen leaves, making a rustling sound on the stone road, adding a touch of uneasy melody to this quiet night.

Li Si hid in the shadow of a house not far away, observing the building.

According to Old Milo, this is where the city lord lives, that is, the territory of the legendary wizard Ihalus.

It does look a bit like the style of a necromancer, dark and without any prosperous decorations.

Li Si pondered in his heart, and after thinking about it, he split his body and moved towards the building.

Let’s explore the way first and see what’s going on inside the building.

If it doesn’t work, there’s still time to run away!
