Chapter 1706: Chapter 977 The True Face of the Mysterious Necromancer_2 Chapter 1706: Chapter 977 The True Face of the Mysterious Necromancer_2 Following that, Leo Ray heard Lina’s tense voice through Mind Talk, gritting her teeth as she spoke, “Lord, leave that place immediately to realize I cannot control this thing for too long!”
As soon as Lina finished speaking, the huge bone claw started trembling faintly, as if two forces were struggling against each other within it.
“Lina, I owe you one this time.”
After surviving a close call, Leo Ray didn’t hesitate and immediately moved towards Ariel Watson and the others.
The situation was now clear as day; escape was impossible. The only option left was a desperate battle against the mysterious necromancer.
At the same time, Leo Ray quickly summoned Randal, Sarah Shawn, and Yoyo, who were on standby near the breakout battlefield, to come back.
As for Taylor and the others, who were entangled with the Fifth-order Puppets, Leo Ray naturally would not summon them, as doing so would only draw more enemy Fifth Order combat power, adding to the chaos of the situation.
Meanwhile, Little Illusion, who was setting up a fake command post, was also rushing over urgently.
“Including Ariel Watson and myself, there are now nine Tier 4 Powerhouses here, plus Randal and Sarah Shawn, two Tier 4 Peak Powerhouses, and Yoyo and Little Illusion. I may not always be at a disadvantage.”
Leo Ray’s expression was somber as he firmly watched the mysterious necromancer covered by a brown hood.
However, what no one expected was
After his Undead Strong Beasts were remotely controlled by Lina, the mysterious necromancer stopped his attack and a look of surprise appeared in his eyes beneath the hood.
He first voluntarily retreated a distance, seemingly indicating he was not a threat, and then spoke to Leo Ray: “Apologies, Mr. Lane, I must have been abrupt just now. May I ask if there is an apprentice of Master Fleming Ken in your camp?”
“Fleming Ken? Wasn’t he one of the Nine Dragon-slaying Heroes renowned across the Human various countries centuries ago?”
Hearing the necromancer’s question, the Elder Shanglu clenched their weapons and couldn’t help but show puzzled expressions.
However, for Leo Ray, Ariel Watson, and Lina, the name was not unfamiliar, as it was none other than Lina’s mentor, frequently mentioned by her.
“There indeed is an apprentice of Master Fleming Ken in my camp.”
Leo Ray had returned to Ariel Watson’s side and first nodded gently at her, signaling to his tear-stained comrade not to worry, then took a step forward and said, “She is an indispensable part of my command.”
“Is that so? From the moment I sensed a familiar tracking spell, I felt it was strange.”
Upon hearing Leo Ray’s reply, the mysterious necromancer’s killing intent completely vanished, and the shadowy behemoth beneath him disappeared as well.
Removing his hood, he revealed a middle-aged man’s pale, bearded face and offered his chest in respect to Leo Ray: “I apologize, Mr. Lane, it was improper of me to lay hands on you. Please forgive my rashness.”
“You nearly harmed him just now, and now you talk about plots and tricks?”
Ariel Watson, guardedly, pointed her magic wand directly at the necromancer’s unkempt beard and said sternly, “If we must fight, we will–till our deaths, we won’t give in an inch!”
“Princess, please calm your anger, I truly bear no grudge against you, Mr. Lane, or anyone present. I was merely fulfilling a favor for Duke Stone, and that’s why I reluctantly agreed to take action.”
The pale-faced middle-aged necromancer quickly waved his hand, first bowing respectfully to Ariel Watson, then turned to Leo Ray: “Mr. Lane, this area might soon be discovered by the Fourth Prince and others. We should move our position first.”
“Understood, but please keep your distance as I won’t lower my guard towards you without understanding everything clearly.”
Leo Ray pondered for a moment, then nodded his head.
Leo Ray clearly understood that in the information he had controlled before, whether it was the Lancaster clan or other forces in the Fourth Prince’s camp, there was no mention of any Fifth Order Powerhouses.
Moreover, Beast Tamer Necromancers were extremely rare, and the mention of Fleming suggested that it was very likely that the other party indeed had some connection with Fleming.
As for the possibility of conspiracy and deceit, it was nearly zero, after all, the other party had already taken the initiative, and with just a call for reinforcements, our side would undoubtedly be defeated.
“In a situation where the other party takes the initiative to show goodwill, if we could make them withdraw from the battlefield or directly convert them into our combat power, it would be a great boost!”
Thinking about this, excitement suddenly surfaced on Leo Ray’s sweaty face.
As for the fact that the other party had just attacked him, he did not mind it.
After all, he was now the supreme commander in charge of three armies, responsible for the lives and deaths of hundreds of thousands of soldiers, and he absolutely could not act solely on emotion.
Since there was a possibility of converting enemies into friends, he would certainly seize it to increase the likelihood of our victory.
Seeing that Leo Ray no longer pursued the other party’s attack, including Ariel Watson, others at the scene also subdued their hostility and merely watched the other party with full vigilance.
Accompanied by a swift breeze, a group of people including Leo Ray and a middle-aged necromancer swiftly arrived at a more secluded edge of the battlefield.
“Mr. Lane, my name is Nolan, and just like your subordinates, I am a disciple of Master Fleming Ken. Since the master has strictly prohibited disciples from fighting each other, I refrained from attacking you. Although Duke Stone has shown me kindness, it does not amount to making me betray our sect.”
The middle-aged necromancer had just landed and humbly introduced himself, then saluted Leo Ray again, “If I had known a fellow disciple was in your camp, I would never have attacked you, I hope you can understand.”
“No problem, you don’t need to apologize, it was just a matter of different positions just now, no one was right or wrong.”
Leo Ray nodded at the middle-aged necromancer named Nolan and smiled, “It seems we won’t know each other without a fight.”
“Mr. Lane’s magnanimity is as vast as the sky, no wonder you have so many elite soldiers around you.”
Knowing his wrongdoing, Nolan first generously complimented Leo Ray and then carefully requested, “Although it is not the right time, Mr. Lane, could you please let my fellow disciple know not to tell our teacher about this?”
“That’s a trivial matter.”
Seeing that Nolan clearly feared Fleming greatly, Leo Ray did not refuse but simply smiled, “Lina is currently outside the city. I will connect through magic communication to briefly inform her. You can talk among yourselves.”
After saying this, Leo Ray immediately opened the mind talk and informed the very tense Mandala Race girl outside the city about everything.
“I’m terribly sorry, Lord, I never thought that the one who attacked you would be my senior brother!”
Lina’s voice was filled with apprehension as she kept apologizing to Leo Ray.
After a moment, she regained her composure and asked Leo Ray, “Lord, you said that the despicable guy is called Nolan, right?”
“Not to hide from you, Lord, although I have never met this despicable senior brother, I indeed heard the teacher mention him.”
“He is a mixed-race of Ashen White Clan and Human Clan, with a great talent in beast taming, and has been out alone for a long time. He’s said to be always loitering around the edges of Prairie Kingdom, never taking anything seriously.”
Since Leo Ray had activated the external broadcast for the mind talk, Nolan heard all this conversation clearly.
On his pale and messy face, a touch of embarrassment emerged, and then he took the initiative to interrupt, “I didn’t know the teacher thought of me this way, I’m not aimlessly wandering in Prairie Kingdom, but am searching for the carcass of a long extinct Warcraft!”
“Stop making excuses, you even dared to attack Lord, being irresponsible is the least of what the teacher said!”
Lina’s angry clear voice echoed around Leo Ray, “I must tell the teacher when I get back that you tried to stir up discord among disciples!”
“Don’t, don’t, don’t, junior sister Lina, right? When you were first pulled out of the ground by the teacher, I was serving by his side, and I watched you grow up.”
Nolan’s pale face suddenly showed a touch of nervousness, and he hurriedly said, “Please listen to your senior brother’s explanation, I did not intend to attack Mr. Lane.”
