Pirates: The Black Earl

Chapter 5, Summoning the Undead

How to make people evaporate?

Answer: Secret executions.

Of course Aokiji doesn't want to kill people indifferently, and he is not a red dog. So what he meant was to erase all traces of Lovett's original existence!

As long as Lovett is gone, the government won't bother with such a small matter.

In such behavior, the navy is familiar with the road, and the old horse knows the way.

It depends on whether Branch 153 is willing to keep it a secret for Lovett...and Lovett's own wishes.

But the answer is also fairly obvious.

A few days later, East China Sea, Shields Town, 153 Naval Branch.

The wide square was crowded with mourning crowds. The crowd was dense but silent. The bodies of the dead soldiers had been sent to the cemetery for placement. Today is a collective funeral for them.

After several days of rest, Lovett, whose high fever has faded away, has no obvious weakness except for his pale face. Of course, the wounds on the soul cannot be repaired overnight, and many archlichs cannot recover for hundreds of years after being destroyed by someone.

Standing in a hidden corner on the edge of the square, Lovett turned around, and the empty sleeve on the left flicked with the movement.

"Is it really okay for me to come here? Colonel Monka."

The meaning above has been conveyed to Branch 153. Monka has successfully become a colonel and is in charge of Branch 153. Lovett, because of his meritorious service in assisting in the arrest of Crowe, has canceled the reward and appointed a second lieutenant...

Except for a small number of resolute opponents who disagreed, most of the nonsense felt that it didn't matter.

Anyway, the meaning from the headquarters has been clearly stated. Lovett cannot be promoted in any form, has no real power, and cannot even leave the East China Sea. It is purely as if they have raised a mascot.

With Aokiji's endorsement, it can also have an explanation to the world government.

Lovett doesn't care about erasing traces of his existence from above, he doesn't belong to the "past" in the first place.

Just taking advantage of this opportunity, the name I was used to did not conform to the habits of this world, so I changed it to Francis Lovett and changed the direction.

As for "Triangle Breaker" Lovett...

Already died in that battle.

What does it matter to me, Lovett, that you catch the lawbreaker?

Hearing this, Monka, with his jaw wrapped in a bandage, stared at the square not far away, and replied: "Since everyone agrees to help you keep it a secret, then the previous things are over...As a navy ensign, what's wrong with you coming here? ?”

There was something wrong with his character after all!

Based on the information Lovett has heard these days, Monka was originally a very rigid guy.

But it's just what I want.

With the corners of his mouth raised, Lovett smiled: "Understood."

"That's it... I'm going to go there. There is a pharmacy in the town. You can go shopping as you like."

After all, Mengka followed the line of sight cast in front, and strode away.

"It's so touching, you take such good care of me..."

After Monka left, Lovett's smile subsided, and his expression was indifferent when he said this.

"It's a pity that everything is a lie woven by my own hands... Even the feeling of raising a pet is not as good as it is!"

Lowering his head and clenching his fists, Lovett lowered his eyelids and looked sideways at Monka's back under the cover of his hair: "I really look forward to what kind of face you will have when you discover the truth and wake up your memory."

"You who have tasted the beauty of power and know the essence of food...it must be very interesting at that time."

The fist was loosened, and a dim ball of soul light appeared in the palm of his hand like magic, flickering non-stop.

Lovett spread his fingers and clasped his palms to his face, taking a deep breath.

hiss……!

The soreness and tingling instantly flooded the whole body, making Lovett tremble all over.

For a necromancer, soul devouring is not only a technical job, but also a physical job. Without a strong soul at the bottom, that's what happens.

hum!

The head is buzzing, and the messy memory fragments swarm,

It was skillfully controlled by Lovett and quickly cleared out.

Memories can affect personality and even distort cognition.

Therefore, although a necromancer can directly devour other people's soul fragments to deprive memory by means of "soul devouring", most of the time he will only choose "soul search" to watch movies.

The volume of the soul light sphere that had been discarded of impurities plummeted again, and the actual remaining soul energy was less than one-tenth of the original, but the purest and harmless nourishment remained.

With Lovett's current soul condition, this is enough for him.

Putting his fingers under his nose and taking a deep breath to relieve the pain in his head, Lovett took a long breath and turned his head to look at the forest behind the town.

"Ten days, it should be about the same?"

...

The moon and stars are scarce, and the black magpies fly south.

In the silent forest, a black shadow moved unsteadily. From time to time, the eerie and inexplicable whimpers of unknown animals can be heard in the ear, and combined with the night covered by dark clouds, the picture penetrates into the bone marrow.

After an unknown amount of time, the black shadow stopped beside an artificial fence. The bright moonlight in the sky just broke through the dark clouds at this time, and sprinkled down like a curtain, illuminating the gray and white tombstones in front of him that were erected eeriely.

This is Shields Town Cemetery, immediately behind Branch 153.

"The small town cemetery has a history of several decades, and it was expanded once in the middle. This half belongs to the area of ​​the older generation, and almost no one worships it."

Relying on the map recorded during the day, Lovett tightened the black cloak on his body, and looked at the other half of the face, which was paler than the tombstone, not far away, which was obviously brand new.

"Is there?"

Rusting footsteps, walking alone in the gloomy cemetery under the moonlight, this scene is enough to make ordinary people stand on their heads, but for a necromancer, there is really nothing to be excited about.

Do you feel chilled by the braised pork on the table?

Probably this is the psychology.

When he came to the tombstone in the newly built area, Lovett glanced at the cemetery keeper's hut in the distance. Through the window, he could see the old cemetery guard sitting on a rattan chair with a newspaper in his hand.

The dim light in the room was on, but he fell asleep for a long time.

Confirming that no one was around, Lovett leaned down and put his ear on the tombstone.

What can be heard in the cemetery at night?

The answer is only known to Lovett himself.

He held his breath and waited quietly...

Suddenly, boom!

Only in the cemetery of the dead, there was a dull impact!

Through the tombstone transmission, Lovett could hear clearly!

A smile appeared on his pale face, and the corner of Lovett's mouth curled up, and he said with a light smile: "Good luck, good start!"

Necromancy magic has three major foundations and five branches, but it’s okay to only remember the five major branches, because they are all classified after the evolution of distinct types from the three major foundations.

These five branches are Summoning Magic, Bone Magic, Flesh Magic, Soul Magic and Curse Magic.

Among them, in the soul magic branch, there is a basic magic that is comparable to the summoning system "Skeleton Resurrection". It is not the soul shock he used on the black cat pirates Sam and Booge, but...

Force obedience!

This trick was originally developed by necromancers when they went to some dead Jedi expeditions to clean up the group of undead creatures that were naturally raised.

Some powerful undead rely on their immortality, and even necromancers find it very troublesome to deal with them by themselves.

Later, it was improved by the necromancers of the soul school, and it became a thing with a very high upper limit and an extremely low lower limit.

The most notable change is that powerful mages can use this magic to forcibly deprive other necromancers of control over summoned creatures.

It's control, not annihilation.

Impact like never before!

When this spell was improved, it coincided with a thousand-year war in the Necromancer Academia, and the result was...

The enemy quickly improved the summoning magic and strengthened the control of the summoned objects!

It's really... gratifying, congratulating, congratulating, congratulating.

So it is said that necromancers are good at fighting because they are forced by their own family.

However, Lovett doesn't have such complicated ideas at the moment. He just wants to find some tool people to help him work and subdue some...artificial wild undead.

Obscure and low-pitched singing permeated the empty and cold cemetery, and the sound of insects stopped quickly, as if some indescribable monster descended here, shocking everything.

The old man in the caretaker's hut felt his nose itchy, rubbed it, turned over, and continued to sleep.

woo... woo...

The surrounding air suddenly began to accelerate, blowing the corners of the clothes.

Lovett spread his only right arm outwards, changed the rhythm of singing, and began to become passionate and powerful, but the strange thing was that the sound in the outside air did not become louder, and those syllables only resounded in the soul.

Swish! Swish!

Suddenly, a column of black smoke appeared along with the sound of the wind, dancing around him non-stop.

Then came two, three...

When dozens of black smoke appeared around him, sweat dripped from Lovett's forehead, and his eyes were no longer so bright.

"It's almost there, even if it is energy-saving casting, this is my limit... The conversion rate of nearly one-fifth is perfect in the current state."

Not every corpse can be transformed into an undead creature, and not every undead will naturally obey the necromancer and control twenty-seven zombie puppets at once. Lovett would give himself a nine out of ten.

Stay humble with one point remaining.

Pulling his arm back to his chest, controlling the few mental powers, Lovett pushed hard.

call out!

Whoosh!

Trails of black mist shot out, each of them searched for their way, circled in the air, and accurately sank into brand-new tombstones. It took less than ten days to see them.

That's right!

Long before the reinforcements arrived that night, Lovett had cursed every corpse on board with the necromorphosis, waiting for them to trigger necromorphosis.

What's the use of resurrecting the old corpse in the cemetery? He needs fresh undead warriors!

If it weren't for the lack of energy to use large-scale resurrection magic, he would not let that boat of people go.

The curse of corpse transformation, a small curse-type spell, is even difficult to work on living people, and most of the cases will only be treated as skin diseases.

But put it on the dead, the effect is outstanding!

After all this, Lovett took a deep breath and smiled, feeling the faint but real presence of twenty-seven connections in his mind.

"Stand up, slaves! In the name of your master, I command you to stand up!"

Crack...Crack!

As the words fell, a pale palm with obvious corpse spots penetrated the soil and stretched out to the sky.

The soil in the cemetery began to tremble non-stop, and the coffin was lifted with one hand, breaking the soil, and the scene was extremely strange.

Not long after, twenty-seven zombie puppets of different heights, shorts, fats and thins climbed out of the grave one after another, standing quietly under the moonlight.

Looking at the army of undead (?) lacking arms and legs in front of him, Lovett's tired face was full of smiles.

"It's going to be an epic adventure."

Even though the appearance is not good, the appearance of this group of undead announced that the profession of necromancer has officially established itself in this world!

…………

The title of the fourth chapter disappeared, changed and reappeared, so the question came... Is there any difference between "Answers from the Navy Headquarters" and "Answers from the Navy Headquarters"?
