Chapter 593: Exposed lich

Only the Butterfly Demon sisters who were priests were left to help clean up the battlefield. The others rushed to the Wolf King’s tent and started discussions.
As the wolf king put a bandage on himself, he said: "This attack started at five o'clock in the morning. If it weren't for the reminder from the little brother Yumu, we would definitely not be able to survive your arrival. Moreover, I know them too. The purpose is."
"Purpose?" Haru frowned and said, "Are you sure?"
"Perhaps 90%. On the one hand, I want to use my corpse to make necromancers to fill his own corpse march. But this is incidental. Their real purpose is probably to want the ground vein here."
"Earth veins?" The throat frowned and said, "What do you want earth veins for? This kind of thing doesn't seem to be of much use to the undead."
Yu Mu asked: "What is the earth vein? Does it have any effect?"
The eagle woman said: "Earth veins refer to the flowing streams of static magic elements in a certain area. It is equivalent to an underground river. However, what constitutes earth veins are the static creatures and things such as plants, rocks, etc. in this area. The magic power contained in it. The veins are equivalent to the sum of all the magic power in these plants and the earth."
The singer added: "When it comes to the function of the earth veins, each earth vein has several magic power collection points. The largest magic power collection point can integrate all the sources of magic power. After mastering this point, you can pass the earth veins. , To control the terrain and vegetation of the entire area to a certain extent. But this level is still more difficult."
"Why?" Yu Tu was curious.
Hou explained: "Because of the difficulty. It is difficult for people to distinguish between the individual by the mixed magic power. It is also difficult to figure out which of these magic powers are what they need and those that are not needed. If it is carried out in favor of governance. If it is similar, the integrated ground vein node is far inferior to the branch node in a small area, unless it is to destroy the entire area. If you don't need to distinguish the overall destruction, it will be easier at the main node."
"Meaning, the ground vein here is the total node of this forest. The enemy's purpose is to destroy this forest through the node? What good is this for them?"
"It's the secret realm. The ancient tree secret realm." The wolf king gave the answer decisively.
"That lich sent two clones this time, one is the one you solved, and is responsible for launching the corpse march. The other is to protect itself and let the corpse march successfully complete. I took advantage of the moon to return. The time of existence destroyed another clone, and got the news from it. His original words were,
You will be the biggest gain besides the earth veins. I really look forward to using your body to stand on the one that should have died. On the old wood, watching the wonderful scene of your companions being swallowed by death.'From these words, it is not difficult to guess their intentions."
Haru said: "It seems that the arrogant lich thought he had a chance to win. Only then did he reveal the precious information to us."
"So, why choose Earth Veins? Does Earth Veins have anything to do with the secret realm of ancient trees?"
The singer on one side was a little surprised and said: "Don't you know? The ancient tree secret realm is actually an independent space supported by the ancient tree. It is rooted in the main world and extended out of the extra space. Therefore, the ancient tree also exists in the network of earth veins. Among them. It is enough to affect the ancient trees through the veins. If the ancient tree has an accident, the entire ancient tree secret realm will disappear, or it will become a rootless space in the subspace."
"That's it. It doesn't sound like an easy problem to solve."
Haru said: "If we are here now, the enemy has only two options. One is to increase manpower, and launch a surprise attack when we have just finished fighting and the main support troops have not arrived. The second is to give up. The main node, choose to find the small node where the ancient tree is located."
"Is it easy to find?"
"If it were that easy, the other party would not choose to attack here." With a press on the throat, the land among the few people began to change, and the fine sand gathered to form the surrounding terrain.
"Earth veins are easy to observe. After all, it is a cluster of magical power. It is relatively easy to find the core points of the gathering. The wolf king is here because of the earth veins."
"No, we are a nomadic ethnic group. We move every few years. I also stayed here for a while before I realized that I was sitting on the main node of the earth."
After a roar, he glanced at the Wolf King and then said: "Well, no matter what the outcome, at least for now, the choice made by the Wolf King has saved us from major losses. Of course, it is not over yet. The flames outside are still there. Burning. In theory, this kind of flame will burn until the magic power is completely exhausted without the master's control."
"If we are in other places, even in open areas, we have a lot of ways to solve this problem. But here is the gathering place of the earth veins. It can be said that the most magical place in this area unless we cut the earth veins by ourselves, otherwise, These flames may burn forever."
Yu Tu asked: "So, is there no other way?"
"Find the ninth king and pay the price for him to take back the flames. But it takes time. The traces of the ten kings have no fixed position except for the tenth king. It is difficult to find.
Haru sighed and said, "There are so many troubles. The follow-up support may have to wait until the afternoon. I'd better go and see and add some defensive barriers."
"I'll help you."
Haru left the meeting with a few wizards. Just after going out, he walked back shortly thereafter, with the butterfly demon sisters.
Sister Butterfly, who has long aqua-blue hair, said: "We found something, a good thing."
The eyes of everyone instantly attracted the past with the things in the hands of Sister Butterfly. A broken mana stone. There was also a clear breath of death on it.
Haru smiled and said, "The fragment of the Lich's staff. What a good thing."
Yu Mu and Yu Tu both had some doubts.
When the singer on one side saw it, she explained: "Sister Butterfly's natural ability is to search. As long as she has enough breath, she can track the owner of that breath."
"That is to say."
Haru smiled and said, "Yes, we caught the fox's tail."
The butterfly sister with purple short hair said: "We have locked his position. It's thirty miles away."
"Anyone else?"
"Not sure. Do you want to take a risk?"
Haru said: "I will stay to create and maintain the barrier. Leave me a few more people."
"Yes, Eagle Girl, Plaid, Duo, Isla and the showgirl, you few stay to help Haru. The others will go together. It depends on the situation to decide our course of action."
"Yu Mu, you stay for help, and by the way, be responsible for contacting the secret world."
"Ok."
After identifying the personnel, the team set off quickly. In order to take down the enemy in the shortest time.
