Chapter 217 Battle Lich

The lich picked up an egg from the sink and dropped it carefully into the cup. While adding various unknown liquids, he muttered in a low voice. "I hope this time it will succeed. The last time I failed was because the toad's egg membrane was too fragile to withstand the violent expansion and contraction of the embryo. This time I used sea turtle eggs, both in terms of hardness and elasticity, which are much better than last time. If there is another problem, I'm afraid we have to change the direction."

Henry gave up his plan to do it immediately, and he also wanted to see the specific results of this experiment. The lich will heat the cup over a fire, and after a minute the eerie liquid inside begins to bubble black. The egg floated up and began to shake, the surface shell cracked little by little, and a palm-sized humanoid creature with gray scales crawled out from inside.

The Lich hurriedly picked it up and put it in his palm to examine it carefully. The little thing squirmed a few times with great effort, and then was pinched to death by the dry palm. The lich frantically radiated negative energy to the surroundings, and shouted angrily: "What! What failed again! I have obviously used the most perfect embryo, but the bred dragonman is still genderless."

Seeing that the experiment failed, Henry secretly packed the notes on the table, and immediately began to prepare spells. In order to prevent the Lich from casting spells quickly, he directly used the seventh-level magic "Powerful Veto". This powerful spell quickly distorts the daemons around the lich, and it will take him longer than usual to adjust to these chaotic fluctuations if he is to cast the spell.

When Dai Nahei saw the signal to attack, he immediately released an "acceleration technique". Apodell and Minsk brandished magic weapons and charged forward, but they were all blocked by the "Stone Skin Technique" triggered by the "Accident Technique". The lich found that it was too late to recite the spell, so he directly used the eighth-level magic "spell activation".

"Protection against magic weapons" (form a magic stance. Completely immune to damage from magic weapons within fifteen seconds.), "Protection against magic damage" (full protection against magic damage. The duration increases by one minute for each spell level) and "Spell Shield" (offsets an attack of a magic-breaking spell.) The three protective magics are instantly added to the body.

The lich now has various positions and spell auras flashing all over his body. Under this all-round protection without dead ends, all attacks lost their effect. Henry knew very well that he had to break the "spell shield" first, so he quickly took out a magic scroll of "Ruby Reversal Ray" (removing any level of protective spells on the target) and activated the spell on it.

A dark red light shot out from the fingertips, hit the silver energy shield fiercely, and the "spell shield" disappeared instantly. Henry chanted the spell quickly. He knew he had to remove the "Protective Magic Weapon" before the Lich's spell was ready, otherwise the two warriors' weapons would not be able to damage it.

Ke Lang and Aimeng took out their melee weapons and held back the dragon man who wanted to come up to help. The two of them knew that the bows and arrows they were good at were completely useless in this battle. Had to stop this monster. Freeing others to focus on dealing with the mighty lich.

Henry completed the spell "Kyle's Guardian Whip" one step ahead of the Lich. He shot a transparent ball of light at the enemy, and the "protective magic weapon" was disintegrated in the blink of an eye. Seeing the disappearance of the protection spell, Apodel swung the flail at the Lich's arm and threw it down. Just hearing a "click", the bone hidden in the sleeve was broken.

The Lich finished casting the spell with his other hand, and his withered fingers in the depths hooked Henry. A green protection blocked the invasion of magical energy, and the seventh-level magic "Finger of Death" was offset by the previously blessed anti-death barrier. Seeing that the spell was invalid, the Lich activated the "Spell Sequencing" and "Spell Matrix" at the same time.

A large amount of protective magic was instantly blessed back. Apodel and Minsk were forced to take a few steps back by the flames surrounding the Lich. The fourth-level magic "flame shield" made the two warriors a little at a loss. Immediately after the Lich used the "Mirror Image Technique", it suddenly became several, and then the "Advanced Invisibility Technique" made it disappear completely.

Henry's mind is quickly looking for countermeasures, high-level spellcasters are really too difficult to deal with. Now the house was filled with the sound of liches chanting spells. Apparently, this damn guy even performed a "ghost sound" on himself to confuse the public. Apodel and Minsk waved their weapons in an attempt to find out the enemies hidden around them. However, this experimental site is too large, and it is impossible to find a thin Lich in a short time.

Suddenly, a white magical aura shot out from the corner behind him. "Dispelling the magic" instantly stripped off the "death barrier" on everyone. The Lich screamed at the top of his lungs: "You risky adventurers! How dare you sneak up on me who is about to become the god of dragon people! Taste the fear before death, I will torture you for a day and a night, and finally use it as materials for cultivating new dragon people."

Henrygen ignored the nonsense. He raised his spellcasting speed to the extreme, flipped his hands quickly, and spit out syllables quickly from his mouth. A blue eye gradually appeared in the air, and it scanned the entire cave, followed by the lich's "advanced invisibility" and "mirror image" all ineffective.

Seeing that the enemy had been forced out by the fifth-level magical spell "True Eyes", Henry immediately yelled at Apodel: "Don't worry about those flames! Hurry up and break the other arm. Now there is no protection from the "Death Barrier". If there are any more instant-death spells, we will die!"

Apodel bit the bullet and rushed into the flames, the high temperature instantly scorched his skin. Enduring the severe pain, he swung the flail and smashed the Lich's other arm. The Lich terminated the spell he was casting, and now he has only one arm left, and if it is interrupted again, he cannot cast spells anymore.

The huge inertia of the magic flail hit the lower body, and the leg bones were smashed to pieces. The Lich lost his balance and fell violently to the ground. With a roar, Minsk's eyes started to turn red, and he rushed over furiously and slashed wildly at the enemies who fell on the ground. All of a sudden, bones flew around, and most of the Lich's body was chopped into small pieces.

Apodel retreated quickly, and he was almost accidentally injured by the crazy Minsk just now. Henry chanted a spell loudly, and then a sixth-level divine spell "abnormal dawn" was cast. Intense positive energy instantly filled the entire cave, and the eyes of the Lich's negative energy were instantly blinded. It didn't take long for the rampage in Minsk to end. A big mouthful of blood spewed out of his mouth, and he wobbled and sat on the ground.

Seeing the lich with only one skeleton left on the ground, Henry immediately took out a box full of positive energy from the dimension bag and put it on it. The power of this box is not strong enough to kill the lich, but it does a good job of preventing it from regaining strength. Before he found the phylactery, he would not kill this guy easily.

A phylactery is what a lich keeps its life and soul essence. If you kill a lich without destroying its phylactery, congratulations, you've made yourself a terrifying foe. The lich respawns next to the phylactery within a few days. It will then spend dozens or even hundreds of years of observation and research, and when this guy appears in front of you again, you will find that this guy knows you better than your mother.

Henry didn't intend to guard against an undead creature with a spellcasting level of nineteen for the rest of his life. He, Apodel and Minsk, treated him briefly, and immediately went around looking for something that might be a phylactery together with Dinahei and Imon. Everyone spread out and searched everything inside and out, but they didn't see the phylactery, but they found a lot of scrolls and magic items. Just when several people were at a loss, Ke Lang pointed to the dragon man who was tied into rice dumplings on the ground.

"Should we torture this guy? He's been around the Lich, so he must know something."

Henry was awakened by the elf hunter's words, and they searched the entire cave, leaving only this guy who hadn't searched carefully. Generally speaking, Lich will not hide the phylactery too far, otherwise, once it is destroyed by some strange creature or person, it will be too wronged to die. Thinking of this, he quickly walked up to the dragon man and cast a detection spell.

Suddenly the bound captive began to struggle desperately. He wanted to escape the detection of the spell, but was firmly pressed to the ground by the tall and strong Apodel. He punched this guy hard, and then threatened loudly: "Ugly monster! Be honest with me! If you dare to move around, I will cut off your hands and feet!"

"Damn robbers! I'm going to kill you! Let me go! Let me go!" the dragon man cursed loudly in the common language, not taking Apodel's threat seriously at all.

Henry began to probe his body inch by inch with his hands gleaming with white magic aura, and soon he felt a burst of negative energy near his chest. Dai Nahei pressed the dragon man's heart hard, and found that there was no heartbeat like a normal creature. She winked at Minsk, and the ranger immediately took out a knife and gently cut open the skin and muscles.

"Oh, my God! Who can tell me what this thing is?!" Aimon's eyes widened and he exclaimed.

At the heart of the Dragon Man, there is a metal box surrounded by countless blood vessels. It kept vibrating up and down, replacing the heart to send blood to the creature's body. The black blood flowing out of the box exudes a rancid smell, and the negative energy has begun to erode the whole body. It won't be long before this dragon man will be transformed into an undead.

Henry knew that this disgusting-looking little box was the Lich's phylactery. He asked Apodel to wrench the dragonman's neck, then tore apart the blood vessels to take out the box. This is the entire life and soul of a Lich. Not only can it blackmail the Lich into serving itself, but most importantly, it can also be used to make a powerful puppet creature "Scroll Golem".
