From Skeleton Soldiers to King of the Undead

After an unknown amount of time, Phillip woke up faintly.

He found himself tied to a chair with a rope and unable to move.

In front of him was a strange dark room, and the five captains of the Eagle Group except the Amazon sisters.

Recalling what he was doing before he fell into coma, he instantly realized something and his face became extremely pale.

Finn was the first to speak coldly, "Phillip, where did you learn necromancy?"

"...I don't know necromancy." The young man spoke softly after being silent for a few seconds.

Finn turned to look at the werewolf, "Wulf, I want Assassin to use Veritaserum, are you okay with that?"

Wolf frowned, closed his eyes, turned away, and nodded.

"Hehe, after using this, there is no secret you can't tell..." The old man wearing a white skull mask came closer step by step with a metal syringe.

Then it aimed at the blood vessel at the boy's collarbone and inserted it into it, slowly pushing in the medicine.

Only a little was pushed in, because a slight overdose can cause death, and only he can grasp the accurate dose.

After a while, the medicine took effect,

Phillip's pupils dilated and his eyelids drooped, becoming lifeless.

Finn asked again: "Philip, where did you learn necromancy?"

The young man said unconsciously: "Spells... are learned from books..."

Finn asked again: "Where did the book come from?"

"The book... was written by the Necromancer..."

It's like "I was born by my mother" nonsense.

Kavin frowned and asked: "What we want to ask is - who is your teacher? The teacher who taught you undead magic!"

"……my teacher."

Finn and others were very attentive and their ears pricked up.

The young man was silent for a while before continuing: "My teacher is... the tutor of the Imperial Academy of Magic... Mr. Wallace. He wants to prepare a potion for me..."

Tutor at the Imperial Academy of Magic?

Several mercenaries looked at each other.

"Impossible. I just graduated from the academy. How come I didn't know there was a mentor named Wallace?"

Mage Cavin frowned and looked at Assassin, "Your veritaserum won't make people talk nonsense, will it? Or does it not work at all?"

The masked old man shook his head, "I don't think this kid has the ability to stay awake and lie."

Subaru said: "Can't you just ask him a few more words? Philip! Tell me how you met your teacher? Who is your teacher? Why does he teach you necromancy? When did you start teaching..."

After being asked a lot of questions, Philip was silent for a long time and then said:

"Teacher Wallace is a royal nobleman from the imperial capital... He knows Duke Hall and retired Principal Angel..."

In an unconscious narration, Wallace's fabricated identity was told in its original form.

Even the mage Kavin was doubtful at this time, because many of the things the young man told could not be explained by anyone who did not have relevant experience.

Finn speculated: "Maybe the name Wallace is fake, but there is indeed such a person. After all, most necromancers will not reveal their true identity to others."

"As for why the ancient lich appeared in his summoning circle, I think it was an accident. After all, this place is too close to the Undead Mountains. The call of the necromancer is likely to be sensed by intelligent high-level undead."

At this time, Assassin said: "We must give him the antidote, otherwise he will die over time."

After saying that, he took out another metal syringe and injected the antidote into the boy's collarbone.

"Well, well..."

Phillip's pupils shrank, he groaned, and woke up.

Seeing the mercenaries in front of him, he instantly looked horrified.

The young man guessed that he could no longer hide the secret that he was a necromancer, but under the influence of the drug, he couldn't remember what he had just said.

Did he say that he wished all the mercenaries would die?

Did you say that the corpse of the pigman Pige was made into an undead monster?

Finn asked in a deep voice: "Philip, where is the necromancer behind you now?"

Philip: "..."

"Forget it." Finn waved his hand, "Assassin, find a room to lock him up first, and be careful not to let him escape."

After the boy was taken away, the mage Kavin frowned.

"Do you want to hand him over to the church's trial court? Send him to the stake? This is too..."

Finn interrupted his words with a stern look in his eyes,

"I know that you studied in the Southern Federation, and the people there have different ideas from the Empire, so you will think that Philip is innocent. In fact, I am not interested in trying others.

"But I can't let him go. Calvin, you have also fought against the ancient lich. You should know how much we need the weapons and holy relics of the Church of Light if we want to break through the Mountains of the Undead, right?"

"The leader and others have been negotiating terms with several cardinals in the imperial capital. They have already paid too much. I think a necromancer will be a good bargaining chip. They will be very eager to burn a heretic to increase their merits."

Wizard Cavin frowned and said, "But we also know that behind this child, there may be a terrible necromancer..."

"Caven, that's more likely to be fake. In fact, I don't believe it at all." Finn shook his head.

"But the more horrific the child's story is and the more serious the crime, the greater the benefits will be to us! So everything that is false is also true!"

The elf patted his companion on the shoulder, "Relax, everything is for everyone's common future."

Finn then said to the female werewolf on the side: "Wolf, for the sake of everyone's interests, I think you won't have any objections, right?"

Wolf scratched his head and looked at the ceiling, "That kid has been lying to me and made me very unhappy. I'll leave it to you."

Finn nodded and then smiled.

Soon, the residents of Border Town received the latest news.

——The reason why the monsters from the depths of the Undead Mountains came out was because of the conspiracy of a necromancer.

…

In the cave, Roja was still improving his proficiency in spear skills.

The young dragon guarded him, yawning boredly.

979...986...993...1000!

finished!

Roja stopped, his heart was full of joy, and he let out a sigh of relief!

At this moment, his martial arts attainments underwent a qualitative change!

Poking gun skills, offense, defense, avoidance, energy movement...the knowledge and experiences learned in the past are flooding in my mind crazily.

These contents begin to integrate and move towards a whole new realm!
