Chapter 536: Yecheng: Is This Thing That Strong?
Chapter 536: Yecheng: Is This Thing That Strong?
Black Knight must have considered this, which was why he had the Undead guard his magic sword.
If they couldn't defeat even these Undead, they were not worthy of becoming the sword's wielder. The best they could do was to take the treasure on the ground and leave.
"Herklon, the Undead with the shield and the one with the dual swords are likely warrior-type monsters, and I can't gauge their strength.
But that Undead in the black robe is a magic-type monster, and its magic power is exceptionally strong. I estimate it can even use Tier 6 Magic!"
Alshe used her "Insightful Magic Eye" to glance at the Undead guarding the magic sword, and her body began to tremble uncontrollably.
The massive magic power emanating from the creature left no doubt about its strength, and Alshe could sense that its magic power was no weaker than that of her teacher, Flurda, the first Spell Singer of Bahar Empire's Magic Department.
As for the other two Undead monsters, since they weren't magic-type, her ability couldn't gauge their magic power. However, as guardians of the magic sword, their levels and abilities were undoubtedly formidable.
In short, these monsters were not something they could defeat.
"Hmm, even without you saying it, I can tell from the auras these monsters emit that they're not to be trifled with.
The secret potion we were commissioned to find is here, and the treasure on the ground is enough for us to make a fortune.
So, I suggest we abandon the pursuit of the magic sword and consult with the others. It's not just us, the Four Schemers, who are exploring here."
Herklon turned to look at Yecheng and the others on the side, as he spoke.
"You want to give up and leave? Why? Don't you find these magic swords intriguing?"
"How could we not be interested? These are the Black Knight's magic swords, but the problem is these Undead monsters. We have no chance of defeating them!"
The most valuable items in this ruin were these magic swords. It was said that one of the Four Darkblades was wielded by the leader of Crimson Rose, the Steel Rank Adventurer team of the Kingdom, and its power was undeniable.
Aside from the Darkblade Ziliniram, which could release dark energy, there were three other magic swords here. How could Herklon and his team not be tempted?
However, no matter how alluring the magic swords were, one had to be realistic. If their greed led their companions into danger, they would never forgive themselves.
"Herklon, let me ask you, if the Four Schemers were to face one of these three Undead, would you be confident?"
Hearing Yecheng's question, Herklon seriously scanned the three Undead, then looked at Alshe and the others behind him. He nodded and said, "If it's just one of them, with the support of consumables, we should have a chance.
But that's obviously impossible. If a fight breaks out, the other two Undead will also be alerted."
Yecheng's intention was clear to Herklon. It seemed he wanted the Four Schemers to take on one Undead while Yecheng and his two companions faced another. But what about the last Undead?
Once the balance of the battle was disrupted, their side would crumble instantly.
"Don't worry about that. The remaining two will be handled by me and the Adventurer Momo over there.
There are three magic swords here, and whoever defeats the guarding Undead can claim the sword. How does that sound?"
"Regarding Yecheng's proposal, Herklon, who had originally planned to give up on the magic sword, naturally had no objections.
Just as he was about to say something, he saw Yecheng and Momo each approach two of the Undead.
Yecheng chose the Undead with a sword in each hand, a black undead creature, while Momo the Adventurer selected the magic-type Undead.
As for the Undead left for the Four Sages, it was the large Undead holding a shield in one hand and a sword in the other.
The three Undead guarding the magic sword were quite familiar to both Yecheng and Feishu, to the extent that Feishu could summon them using his skills.
Death Knight, Death Swordsman, and Death Archmage—these were the three Undead guarding the magic sword.
All three Undead were level 35, and the Death Archmage could use Sixth-Rank Magic.
The Death Swordsman had a defense level of 25 and an attack level of 40, making it a typical glass cannon.
The Death Knight, a common high-level minion in the Necropolis, had a defense level of 40 and an attack level of 25, making it a tank-type monster.
This was also the reason Yecheng left the Death Knight to the Four Sages; if it were the agile and high-attack Death Swordsman or the Death Archmage, Herklon's team might have been easily killed by them.
With the Death Knight as a tank, as long as it wasn't instantly killed, the Four Sages should be able to grind down their opponent.
As the Death Swordsman charged towards him roaring, Yecheng slashed it in half with a single strike, then slowly approached the so-called magic sword.
Magic sword... no, calling it a magic sword wasn't entirely accurate, as due to the fame of La'Jius's 'Crimson Rose', most believed that all four of the Black Knight's swords were magic swords.
But when Yecheng glanced at the black longsword in his hand, he realized it was called Corrupt Blade Crokodabal.
Its effect caused incurable wounds, or in simpler terms, the 'Bleed' effect.
'This thing is one of the renowned Four Darkblades, tsk, it's not exactly trash, but it's just average equipment...'
While Yecheng was still in shock, on the other side, Feishu, using his mediocre swordsmanship, had also defeated the Death Archmage and stood stunned, gazing at the magic sword in his hand.
Through 'Information', Feishu learned that the Darkblade he obtained was named Death Blade Sphinx.
Its effect was the 'Wound to Death' effect.
At first glance, the Death Blade's effect seemed incredibly powerful, but both Yecheng and Feishu knew that a weapon of this level couldn't possibly possess such an overpowered ability.
The 'Wound to Death' effect likely had a certain trigger probability, and that probability was so low it was appalling.
As for the 'Death' effect, it probably referred to the strength of regular humans, as they had been Adventurers for some time now, and Feishu had gained a certain understanding of the strength of this world's humans.
The last Darkblade, named Sinful Blade Similis, was obtained by the Four Sages, who were almost exhausted by the time they managed to grind down the Death Knight.
However, when they acquired this final Darkblade, their excitement knew no bounds, and after examining the abilities of the Sinful Blade Similis, they exclaimed that it was a divine artifact.
Their cries of surprise also piqued Yecheng and Feishu's curiosity, wondering if Herklon's team had also drawn the jackpot.
But after taking a look at the Sinful Blade Similis's abilities:
Yecheng: (▽｀)
Feishu: Pfft, trash, even worse than my Death Blade.
