Mage The Traveler

Undead Magic

The hand of Long Yi trembled, and continuously murmured, “Undead magic, undead magic.”

As a matter of fact, Long Yi couldn’t help but became extremely surprised, because undead magic had already disappeared from this Canglan continent for several hundreds of years, and basically all the books of this undead magic were already burned down. But till this day people still remember the existence of this strong and evil undead magic. It is said that several hundreds of years ago, a genius necromancer had reached Master Archmage, then he wiped out 3 Master Archmage, 2 Sword Saint, and finally this genius necromancer used forbidden undead magic spell ‘Eternal death’, and summoned several tens of thousands of skeletons and zombies. And moreover also summoned zombie dragon. After that the several hundred meter radius of the surroundings instantly changed into a living hell. Due to this 3 Master Archmage and 2 Sword Saint died, and another one was injured. Furthermore the large army of skeleton and zombies massacred more than 10 cities causing the blood to flow like a river.

Finally after doing this much damage, this Master Archmage necromancer was severely injured, and disappeared without a trace. And from this time onward undead magic spells were stamped out from Canglan continent.

Long Yi inhaled a deep breath, then he turned a single page of this book, but seeing what was written on it, the hands of Long Yi trembled even more. God, what did he see? This thick undead magic book unexpectedly recorded Rank 1 elementary undead magic spells to Rank 11 forbidden undead magic spells in detail. In this world, with the exception of that genius necromancer BiTe Xiuge of several hundred year ago, no one else knew undead forbidden magic spells. So Long Yi guessed that this pitch-black magic wand and this bundle wrapped in cloth belong to BiTe Xiuge.

Very soon, Long Yi remembered all the content of this undead magic book, but he didn’t understand many things written on it because he was new to this undead magic. After that Long Yi opened second book, and he was immediately wild with joy, because this second book turned out to be the detail instructions and notes of BiTe Xiuge on using undead magic spells. All the problems that may arise while practicing this undead magic was detaily explained in this book. Long Yi borrowed moonlight, and unconsciously read this book until its last page as if he was drunk and stupefied.

Only now Long Yi finally knew what that black skull was. It was actually undead dimension space created by BiTe Xiuge by using 9,999 corpses. And inside that dimension it contained 18 skeleton which was painstakingly created by him throughout his life. These 18 skeleton were not ordinary skeleton, each of these 18 skeleton were already Swords Master level in strength. And that unassuming pitch-black magic wand was actually a legendary magic item. According to legend, this was the magic wand used by King of hell, and the magic power of King of hell were sealed inside it.

Long Yi was wild with joy, and he was so happy that he almost fainted. 18 Swords Master ranked skeleton, a magic wand with sealed magic power of King of hell, and the books with all undead magic, this silver wolf king was unexpectedly quite generous, actually presenting such good things.

Long Yi calmed down after a while, although these things were amazing, but he must not use it in open, otherwise he had to flee to the ends of the earth, as many peoples would chase to kill him. It seems before all things he need to cultivate his internal force and mana.

Long Yi spread out his left palm, and looked at that blood red colored skull mark in the middle of his palm, then in his heart he couldn’t help but wanted to look at those 18 skeleton with the strength of Swords Master.

After that he look around him, seeing no one around, Long Yi recalled incantation, then the blood red colored skull mark in his palm emitted an unusual red light. After that a space crack suddenly appeared in front of him, then a black light flashed, and 18 black colored skeletons whose whole body were covered with bony armor and holding a huge sword in their hand appeared in front of Long Yi. No, among them one was holding blood colored huge sickle, and this one looked far stronger than other 17 skeletons. Long Yi was dumbfounded, because the notes of BiTe Xiuge didn’t talk about this strange fellow.

In order to examine the power of these skeletons, Long Yi pointed towards several trees in front and ordered them to attack it. Immediately after he had issued a command, that one skeleton holding a blood colored sickle swept past everyone towards those trees just like a gush of wind, and raise that huge sickle in the sky, and slashed it. Along with the blood red arc, those several trees were instantly chopped into pieces. Those trees were cut into pieces by that one skeleton before other 17 skeletons could even take a single step.

“f**k!” Long Yi laughed wildly and rush towards that skeleton, then patted the shoulder of that skeleton. He was completely satisfied, the strength of this skeleton clearly exceed the Swords Master rank, and you could even say that its strength was slightly better than Great Swords Master.

“M-hm, let me give you a name, your master my name is called Long Yi, and from now on your name will be Long two.” Long said to this skeleton, he had obviously forgotten that the skeletons are unable to make sense of what they were hearing.

After that seeing that it was already close to midnight, and the gates of Light city were also about to close, Long Yi placed all the things inside his space ring, and dashed towards Light city.

Light city deserved to be called northern trade center. All the street were extremely wide, and he could see endless rows upon rows of shops. Although it was close to midnight, there were still many pedestrians in the street, so many shops were still doing business.

Long Yi entered a luxurious inn, and saw that the lobby of this inn was brightly lit. In twos and threes, people were still eating supper in the dining hall next to this lobby.

It seems the business of this inn was doing extremely good, when Long Yi had entered this inn, there were only 2 open luxurious rooms left. And he had to pay 10 Gold coins per day for this room. Long Yi didn’t care about money, currently he had 10,000 amethyst gold coins with him, so without thinking he just took out his Amethyst card and pay the rent for two days.

After paying the rent, Long Yi did not immediately go to his room, rather he sat down on the empty table of the dining hall and ordered two dishes. From afternoon to now he had ate nothing, and just until a moment before his mind was attracted by the undead magic, so when he saw other people were eating, he finally remembered that his stomach was also empty.

At this time, a woman dressed in black came inside, and her figure was extremely fiery, but her appearance was very ordinary. Without a second world, she also rented remaining luxurious room, and walked towards the dining hall.

Long Yi stared at this girl, of course his attention was not attracted by the looks of this girl, rather Long Yi couldn’t see through this young girl with a single glance. At first glance, she seems like an ordinary person, and upon close look it seems like she was being wrapped in a layer of fog. Long Yi knew that she was not an ordinary person.

As if she felt the gaze of Long Yi, she looked towards the direction of Long Yi, and her eyes which was like a bottomless abyss met with his eyes. At that time, a strange glint suddenly flashed in the eyes of that girl.

“Humph.” Long Yi coldly snorted, and a mysterious light suddenly flashed in his eyes. This caused her to feel as if she was stung in her eyes.

That girl groaned, her face immediately became pale, and she looked at Long Yi in horror.

Long Yi sneered: “Truly interesting, this woman actually knows sprit magic.” But before his spirit power, the attack of this woman was undoubtedly displaying one’s slight skill before expert. So naturally, Long Yi counter-taught her a small lesson, because he knew that this woman merely wanted to teach him a small lesson.

The pale complexion of this woman slowly revert back to normal, but her heart nevertheless was filled with terrifying waves. This hateful youth had casually dissolved her own spirit attack and counter attacked her with his spirit magic which was many times more powerful than hers. She had never thought that this ordinary looking son of wealthy family, was this actually such unfathomable spirit magician.

After that this woman casually ate her food, turned around and walked inside towards her room. Just this time, Long Yi also finished eating, so he stood up and followed behind her.

This woman saw that Long Yi was closely following her, so she couldn’t help but became surprised, and mistakenly believed that Long Yi was plotting something unlawful against her. When Long Yi followed her all the way to the luxurious room’s entrance of third floor, she was sure of her guess. She was somewhat frightened inside her heart, as a spirit mage she was very clear about the killing power of the spirit magic, because the spirit magic would not injure the physical body rather the soul.

Just at this moment, this woman saw that two inn assistance were coming over, so she immediately stopped, turned around and roared loudly to Long Yi, “You pervert, why the hell are you following this aunt? Do you want to eat me up?”

After this woman roared, a series of sounds of the doors opening one after another sounded. “Look what will happen now, you pervert. You dared to have a malicious intent towards this aunt.” She complacently thought inside her heart.

Long Yi didn’t know whether to laugh or to cry in this situation, he just calmly looked at the face of this woman and said with a smile: “Are you talking to me?” Soon after that he scanned this woman from the top to bottom, nodded his head and added: “Although I am very interested, but I am still not that hungry that I can’t pick what I eat to arrive at that point.” Finished speaking, he walked across this woman, took out a room card, opened a door and entered.

“Not that hungry that I can’t pick what I eat? This bastard.” This woman was so angry that her whole body was shivering, and a minute dark colored energy which couldn’t be seen without looking extremely carefully flashed in her right hand for an instant.

“I hope you die very ugly death.” She roared, clenched her fist, and opened the door of the room next to Long Yi, entered the room and forcedly shut the door.

“Spirit magic, and dark magic, hoho, never expected to be a kindred spirit.” Long Yi leaning against the door of room laughed inside his heart. Just a moment ago, the red colored skull mark on the center of his left palm automatically vibrated, so Long Yi immediately sensed that fleeting dark magic fluctuation. It seems that this skull not only possess dark dimension space, but also the sensor of dark magic fluctuation.

Long Yi examined this spacious and well-lit extremely luxurious room. Then sat on the soft couch, and sipped a high grade fruit wine and enjoyed it. “As expected the suit of 10 gold is really different.” Long Yi sighed inside his heart.

Lying on the big bed, the face of that woman was filled with anger. Just a moment ago, she had truly lost her face. She got angrier and angrier, and thought, “Why did that fellow insult me?”

“Not that hungry that I can’t pick what I eat? Really infuriating.” Snorting coldly, she angrily jumped out from the bed, and rushed to bathroom. Then looking at her ordinary face which completely lacked any distinguishing feature reflected on the magic mirror, she softly muttered an incantation. After that a dark energy flashed, and her face started to distort. After few moment, everything returned to calmness, and in the magic mirror, a face which was lovely enough to cause the fall of a country, crescent moon like eyebrows with stars like eyes, skin so exquisite and tender just like a pure drop of water, and especially that fine pink colored lips which could easily provoke the thoughts of countless was reflected.

“Stinking bastard, am I ugly? Judging people solely by their external appearance, if you see my true features, will you still be able to think not that hungry that you can’t pick what you eat, humph.” She was somewhat lost in narcissism, touched her own face, and a smile appeared on her red lips which could completely overshadow all the beautiful women in the world.

Long Yi didn’t know that the person he had offended was such extremely beautiful woman. Currently he was sitting cross-legged on the bed, and was mediating, His body was releasing various colored magic elements. Among them purple colored lightning element was most abundant.

When the first ray of sunlight sprinkle through the window’s curtain, Long Yi slowly opened his eyes, and at this moment, his pupil was purple in color, but very quickly it changed back to original black color. And just when Long Yi was about to stretched his body, a light breaking sound reverberated, then he flew in the air, circled a lap around the room, and slowly landed on the floor.

Sensing the surge of internal force inside his body, Long Yi was contented, but was also somewhat skeptical, as just after several days, his Ao Tian jue unexpectedly showed the sigh of breaking through the first layer.

After washing his face and rinsing the mouth, Long Yi had his breakfast, and asked the direction to Mercenary guild, afterwards he walked straight towards that place. Although it was just early in the morning, but various kinds of peoples and races were hurriedly walking on the streets of Light city. And finally Long Yi saw rarely seen elf, beast people, as well as dwarf. As expected male elves were handsome, and female elves were beautiful. And it seems beast people had a close relation with rank and race, usually higher the rank, lesser the chance of degree of variance. Inside the beast people, cat clan and fox clan were comparatively more beautiful and handsome, it said that the number of beautiful woman in these two clans were not to be in small number. Dwarves were very short, when Long Yi met a dwarf for the first time, he sighed, and was unable to imagine these small people of about 1 meter possessed amazing talent in forging. The dwarfs’ weapons and armors were extremely well-known in entire Canglan continent. And the dwarf’s weapon shops were also opened in all over this continent. [Note: I don’t know how he meet beast people here, as in previous chapters it is mentioned that beast peoples had retreated to the forest.]

Walking two blocks, then turning and moving forward in the alley, here was the mercenary guild of Light city according to that person. Basically all guilds were concentrated in the neighborhood of this long alley.

The arrival of Long Yi attracted the attention of many peoples, because in this alley neighborhood, no one was dressed in magic robe and held a magic wand, rather were dressed in leather armor and was holding a huge sword, holding bow and arrows, or holding a gagger. In short, only peoples of these 3 types, no ordinary person could be seen. And in such place Long Yi was wearing gorgeous brocade dress, so he was particularly standing out in this crowd.

Long Yi look all around him, and finally saw one building with a banner where the huge words mercenary guild was stylishly written on it. After that under the gaze of peoples, Long Yi entered mercenary guild. The hall of mercenary guild was very big, was a boiling cauldron of voices, and was overcrowded. There were many mercenaries and mercenary groups in this place for accepting mission and completing mission.

Long Yi squeezed to the mercenary registering window, there was a pretty young girl inside.

“Hello, may I ask if you are here to register as a mercenary?” That young girl affectionately smiled, displayed her two dimples, and asked Long Yi.

Long Yi sensed kindness in her voice, he had never though that the attitude in attending the guests of mercenary guild was this good, then he smiled back and nodded his head, “Yes.”
