Chapter 196

"Master, Your Majesty has urgently summoned you into the palace!"

The butler hurried into the study and said to Benike.

Benic narrowed his eyes, and said slowly:
"Has there been news from the Gorefiend?"

The butler shook his head: "Not yet, but I think it should have succeeded, otherwise His Majesty would not have summoned you urgently at this time."

Benike pondered for a moment, stood up, and ordered:
"Send someone to go quietly to the hunting garden to ensure the success of the plan."

"Yes!"

The butler nodded.

Benicke rode on a steed, surrounded by many guards, and headed for the royal court.

When passing by the Duke's mansion, he happened to see Duke Levi who had just left.

The Duke of Levis is 70 years old this year, but because his own strength has reached a high-level knight, he looks like a middle-aged man in his 50s and [-]s. He is wearing a blue Chinese dress, with a refined and handsome temperament, and has the charm of a middle-aged man.

"Benic, you have also been summoned by His Majesty."

Levi was riding on horseback, approaching Benic with a faint smile, and the guards obediently moved out of the way when they saw it.

"My lord duke~"

Benikee nodded politely with a trace of respect. Even though he is the Minister of Finance, he is in charge of the empire's finances, but in the Shenyao Empire, the ministers can be changed at will, but the title of title is not.

Currently, there are only two dukes in the Shenyao Empire, one is Marshal Wellington, and the other is Levi's.

Therefore, within the empire, the Duke of Levi's status was only under Peter the Great and Marshal Wellington.

"Since we met by chance, let's go together."

Levi's tapped the horse's belly lightly with his foot, and drove towards the royal court with the reins.

"Ok."

Benikke had no doubts and followed closely behind Levi's.

It didn't take long for Levi's and Benicke to arrive at the royal court. After the guards took the horse away, they went to the study under the leadership of the guards.

Generally, Peter the Great summoned his close officials here.

After entering the study, Benicke's eyes changed slightly, because in addition to Peter the Great, Wellington, Muller, Su Mo, and Hyde were also present.

Wellington and Muller are okay to say, but Bernick is still full of fears about the aliens from the upper world.

"Sit first!"

Peter the Great pointed to the seat beside him, showing no emotion from his expression.

Benik sat down quietly, and not long after, several earls, marquises, and important ministers came one by one, and all of these people were the mainstay of the empire.

"Everyone is here!"

Peter the Great waved his hand and asked the guards to close the door, then glanced around, and said slowly:

"Just now, the spaceship that Mr. Su Mo and others were on was attacked by a large group of men in black."

what!
Everyone in the house was shocked when they heard the news.

"Your Majesty, what's the result?"

A minister asked extremely nervously, with cold sweat clearly appearing on his forehead.

Benike also looked at Peter the Great pretending to be nervous, but there was a sinister smile in his heart.

In his opinion, since Peter the Great called all the important officials to the study, there must be something extremely important to announce. If the spaceship was fine, it would certainly not be so exciting.

Gorefiend, got it.

"result……"

Peter the Great turned his head to look at Bernik, his eyes were deep, and he said lightly:

"Bernick, what do you hope the outcome will be?"

Hearing this, Benicke's face changed slightly.

The rest of the important ministers also looked at Peter the Great puzzledly, not understanding why he asked such a question.

"Your Majesty, I of course hope that the guest's spaceship is safe and sound~"

Benike said cautiously, and at the same time secretly glanced at the expressions of Su Mo and Hyde, his heart sank.

No, they were too calm.

Through observation at the dinner party, Bernick had a certain understanding of Su Mo and Hyde.

Su Mo is mature and stable, and may be able to hide his joy and joy, but it is impossible for Hyde to behave so calmly after the spaceship is destroyed.

The spaceship was not destroyed, the Gorefiend failed!

But what troubled him most was why Peter the Great would ask him questions.

Are you saying that you have been exposed?
Impossible, absolutely impossible!
Benik denied this idea. He was always cautious, and all arrangements were handed over to the steward Sau for implementation. Even the blood demon didn't know that the real controller of the blood god society was him, the finance minister of the empire.

As long as the housekeeper Sau does not have an accident, it is impossible for him to be exposed.

Peter the Great glanced at him indifferently, then looked at Su Mo:

"Mr. Su Mo, I will trouble you next."

"Ok!"

Su Mo nodded, manipulated the optical brain, and projected a whole-system projection.

When the holographic projection appeared, the ministers at the scene were taken aback, they had never seen such a thing before.

After the surprise, it turned into eyes full of curiosity.

As soon as the screen turned, a familiar face appeared on the screen.

"this is not……"

Everyone looked at Bernick in unison, because it was his face on the screen.

At this moment, Benicke's face changed drastically, and he looked at the screen in disbelief.

"Notify the Gorefiend, take someone to the hunting garden tonight, and destroy the strange object guarded by the Guards."

"Yes~"

"Hmph, Upper Realm!"

The picture stopped abruptly, but at this moment, all the important officials suddenly stood up and looked at Bernick angrily.

"Benik, it turns out that you are the mastermind behind the Society of the Blood Gods!"

Duke Levis looked at Benic with cold eyes.

"Asshole, it turns out that my brother was killed by you."

An important minister roared and was about to rush towards Bernick, but was stopped in time by the people around him.

Of course, they didn't want to protect Benik, but knew that His Majesty had to make the decision on how to deal with Benik.

At this time, Benike looked at Su Mo with gloomy eyes, and his voice was low and hoarse:

"When did you doubt me?"

He knew very well that this miraculous method must have come from a stranger from the upper world.

Up to now, he no longer needs to defend himself, but he really wants to know how the other party's suspicion came to him.

He didn't talk much at the banquet, so it was impossible to show his flaws.

"It's easy~"

Su Mo smiled slightly: "Because I have a pair of eyes that can see through people's souls, I could tell at the first glance that the Minister of Finance, Benikke, was dead, and now a powerful lich is controlling his body, what I said Right, Mister Lich?"

Lich?

The people in the room looked at each other in blank dismay. They had never heard of this species on this continent.

And at this time, when Su Mo pointed out his true identity, Benike finally showed a touch of shock and panic on his face.

He knows who I am.

Damn, damn the alien from the upper world!

"In addition, I'm sure that the mastermind behind the White Ghost Rebellion is precisely this Mr. Lich."

A faint voice resounded in the study, like a heavy hammer, hitting everyone's hearts.

Benike, is not only the leader of the Blood God Society, but also the mastermind behind the White Walkers Rebellion?
God, what have we been doing all this time?
Everyone, including Peter the Great, showed shock and anger.

The enemy is hiding right under the nose and gets along with everyone day and night, but no one realizes that he is no longer the former Bernick.

Thinking of handing over the most important financial power of the empire to the enemy with his own hands, Peter the Great felt that his face was about to be swollen.

"Mr. Su Mo, please help me arrest this person." Peter the Great said angrily.

wow~
A golden chain suddenly appeared, tangling Benik into a rice dumpling.

But at this moment, the panic on Bernick's face disappeared, replaced by extreme indifference and coldness.

"Su Mo!"

Benike took a deep look at Su Mo, and said darkly:

"We'll meet again soon."

After finishing speaking, Benicke's eyes quickly lost his spirit, and he collapsed to the ground.

Levi stepped forward quickly, checked Benicke's body, and finally shook his head and said, "He's dead."

"What, is this dead?"

Suddenly, there was a chill in everyone's heart.

This way of dying without a sound is really unheard of.

"Mr. Su Mo, what's going on?" Peter the Great couldn't help asking.

Now, he has accumulated too much confusion in his heart.

What exactly is a lich?
How did Benikke come under the control of the Lich?
Did the Lich die just now, or has he escaped?

Su Mo pondered for a moment, then said slowly:

"First of all, let me explain what a lich is."

"Liches are a form of necromancers. They hold the evil dark force, and can command dark creatures, or directly use undead magic."

"Benic must have been under the necromantic magic of the Lich, so that he would infect his soul and finally be controlled by him. Therefore, the real Bernik died a long time ago."

"In addition, all liches have a phylactery, which stores their life essence. As long as the phylactery is not broken, they will never die."

never die!

Hearing the last few words, the hearts of everyone present were shocked, and a chill rose from the spine and rushed straight to the top of the head.

How terrifying is a powerful enemy who will never die~
"Mr. Su Mo, how can I find the Lich's phylactery?"

Marshal Wellington asked urgently.

"Well, I'm sorry, I've never encountered a lich, and I learned about the lich from other people."

Su Mo shook his head and said, "The Lich will definitely hide the phylactery in a place he thinks is the safest place, but the range is too wide and it's hard to judge."

The sacred imprint left on Benik's body before dissipated immediately after his death and could not be traced.

However, he has already made up his mind that if he can see the real body of the Lich next time, he will deliberately let him go after leaving the sacred mark, and see if he can follow the vine to find the phylactery.

Although the Lich can rely on the phylactery to be resurrected many times, but each time he is resurrected, his strength will decrease. Therefore, if he has a chance to escape, he will not directly annihilate his soul like just now.

Hearing that the knowledgeable Mr. Su Mo couldn't find the Lich's phylactery, everyone in the room couldn't help showing disappointment and even despair.

"What's the matter with you?"

At this time, Hyde scratched his head, a little confused: "It's just a lich, is there any need to be so afraid?"

"Hyde~"

Mu Le said bitterly: "Mr. Su Mo said just now that as long as the phylactery is not destroyed, the lich will never die. In this vast world, where do you want us to find the phylactery?"

"Leave this to me."

Hyde patted his chest and assured, "I'm lucky. I can usually find what I'm looking for."

Hearing this, everyone just shook their heads helplessly.

Who knows if the phylactery is buried in the ground, in the river or in the sea.

If you only rely on luck to find the phylactery, when will you find it?
Hyde, a little too naive.

By luck~
Su Mo raised his brows, relying on luck to find the phylactery sounds like a fantasy, but if it is placed on Hyde, it is a very high probability event.

Ouhuang, jumping off a cliff to pick up cheat books, meeting a backer on the verge of death, losing a rare wife, anything outrageous may happen.

It's nothing to find a broken box.

"Everyone, listen to me."

Su Mo said softly: "Since I have accepted Hyde's money, I will definitely help Shenyao Empire get rid of that lich."

"Although the phylactery is hard to find, don't forget that we still have various high-tech tools in our hands."

Yup!

Everyone's eyes lit up.

Now, they have seen the horror of the spaceship and the magic of the holographic projection.

For the word "high technology" in Su Mo's mouth, a kind of mysterious trust suddenly arises. It seems that all difficulties can be solved by high technology.

"Mr. Su Mo, I will leave it to you from now on."

Peter the Great stood up and bowed to Su Mo in public.

Seeing this scene, the eyes of the others opened slightly, but no one felt that this bow was inappropriate.

Although His Majesty is the lord of the empire and has a noble status, he still carries the future of the empire and the lives of hundreds of millions of people in the empire on his shoulders.

For the sake of the empire and the people, this bow is not shameful.

"Your Majesty Peter, please get up."

Su Mo helped Peter up and said, "Since I have accepted this task, I will definitely do my best."

"Besides, even if there is no mission, I will not tolerate a lich massacring my cosmic human race compatriots."

The last sentence immediately resonated with everyone in the room.

From the beginning to the end, Mr. Su Mo did not have the arrogance or arrogance of the people in the upper realm they imagined. Instead, he treated everyone with equality and respect, treated everyone as fellow human beings, and even helped the empire find out the long-hidden monsters. The traitor Bernick.

For a moment, everyone's hearts were filled with gratitude and respect for Su Mo, and they didn't forget the hero Hyde next to him.

Without Hyde's dedication regardless of return, it would be impossible for Mr. Su Mo to come to the Shenyao Empire.

After the matter is over, you must present a big gift to thank them for everything they have done for the empire.

"Everyone, even though Benicke is dead, you must not let this cause you to slack off."

Su Mo said seriously: "Strengthen the guards, the war will come soon."

He remembered the gloomy words that Benikke said before he fell down.

"Su Mo, we will meet again soon."

The Lich's revenge is likely to come soon, and the empire must prepare in advance.

"I'll make arrangements."

Marshal Wellington did not hesitate. With Peter's consent, he took Muller away from the royal court and went to the military camp to sit in charge.

Su Mo's prediction was correct, the Lich's revenge came very quickly.

…………

"Su Mo~~"

A hoarse voice came from the chest cavity, the blue flames in the eye sockets of the Lich jumped, and the killing intent in the soul boiled.

Although Benicke only had a soul-split in his mind, after losing it, it would have a considerable impact on himself.

More importantly, after the nail inserted into the enemy's heart was pulled out, Benicke would no longer be able to take the lead in the war against the Shenyao Empire in the future.

These are all thanks to Su Mo and those strangers from the Upper Realm!
"Wait, I'm going to kill you today."

The lich was full of murderous aura, stood up, and walked towards the hinterland of the winding and complicated cave.

Through a series of observations and intelligence, he has learned about the combat effectiveness of these six aliens.

Hyde, Peggy, and Frank, although their combat systems are rather weird, their strength is at the level of a knight commander.

Mondo and Walnut, these two are undoubtedly very powerful existences among the Grand Knight Commanders, and they can easily kill the Death Knight.

However, the fighting method of the two is simple and rough, and it is not difficult to restrict them.

Now, the only uncertain factor was Su Mo.

This person has never made a move from the beginning to the end, and his ability and strength are unknown.

But since he can suppress Mondo and Hutao, it means that his strength must be higher than the two, but he has not reached the level of natural disasters.

As long as there are no natural disasters, he, the Lich Caspeo, has no fear at all.

Along the winding, rugged and extremely complicated tunnel all the way down, finally, the Lich came to a huge open field.

The stalactite forest hangs upside down on the top of the head, like sharp swords, and there is a black pool in the center. The dark mist escapes from the pool, exuding an evil, gloomy, and fearful atmosphere.

With the water pool as the center, complex and mysterious lines are drawn on the ground, forming a large magic formation. On each node of the formation, there is a small box, and there are dozens of them.

Hundreds of human corpses were scattered in the formation, their skin was blue and black, and their bodies were slightly swollen, but if professional intelligence personnel who were familiar with the major forces came here, they would definitely break out in cold sweat in horror.

Because, these people are all well-known masters of the knight commander level in a certain place.

In the Shenyao Empire, there are very few strong knights at the level of the Grand Knight Commander. Currently, there is only Marshal Wellington. Therefore, the Knight Commander is definitely the top combat power.

Anyone who can reach the rank of Knight Commander is either a member of one party, holding an important position in the empire, or a hegemony figure in a certain area.

And here, there are hundreds of corpses of knight commanders gathered here, which is really frightening.

There is no doubt that this is the masterpiece of the Blood God Society.

With the support of a large sum of money, the Blood God will recruit many outlaws and send them missions to kill the empire's dignitaries and many knight commanders.

The scope of the knight commander's assassination target is not limited to the Shenyao Empire, other countries are also acceptable, but the integrity of the corpse must be ensured as much as possible.

Over the past few years, the Blood God Society killed hundreds of knight commanders, and finally all the corpses were secretly sent to the Black Spirit Pool, where they became a reserve resource for refining death knights.

"It's started~"

The soul fire jumped in the eye sockets of the Lich, and took out a small exquisite pot from the wide robe, pulled the bottle open, and immediately, the soul energy poured into the Black Spirit Pool like a flood.

gurgle gurgle~~
The pool water began to boil, and small bubbles appeared.

The Lich raised his skeleton arm, and the power of the dark undead shot out from his palm and shot into the Black Spirit Pool.

Soon, under the control of the lich, several jets of water flew out of the pool and landed on the eight corpses.

The dark pool water wrapped the corpse, like a black coffin, the magic lines on the ground glowed brightly, the power of the soul, and the pure dark power of the Black Spirit Pool poured into the corpse harmoniously under the refinement of the magic array Among them, it makes some magical changes.

Half an hour later, the eight death knights opened their eyes at the same time. There were no pupils, but two burning blue soul fires.

Ka Ka Ka ~ ~
The death knights stood up stiffly, then half-kneeled in front of the lich, their souls exuding surrender.

The Lich nodded slightly in satisfaction. The eight death knights, plus himself, were enough to crush the four great knight commanders Su Mo, Mundo, Hutao, and Wellington.

Originally, he also wanted to boil the frogs in warm water, to empty out the elite power of the Shenyao Empire little by little, and at the same time strengthen his own power, so that he could accumulate the terrifying momentum that would sweep the continent.

In this way, even if all human empires are united, they are not his opponents.

However, now cannot wait any longer.

We must break through Lingdong City, kill all the aliens from the upper world, destroy the spaceship, and never let them ask for reinforcements.

The soul energy in the small pot continued to pour into the Black Spirit Pool, the water burst open, and the water droplets fell on the magic circle, quickly transforming into a ghost.

The White Walker has no soul, and it itself was formed in the dark force of the Black Spirit Pool, as well as under the catalysis of soul energy and magic circle.

As long as the soul energy is sufficient, the Black Spirit Pool can breed endless ghosts.

The soul energy of an ordinary soldier can produce 3 ordinary ghosts, not to mention the junior knights and intermediate knights.

This is also the reason why the number of ghosts is increasing no matter how they die.

After the White Walker was born, he walked along the tunnel under the command of the Lich.

In the end, an army of hundreds of thousands of ghosts gathered in the complex underground passage.

The Lich didn't give birth to more White Walkers, because he knew that under the threat of that spaceship, no matter how many White Walkers there were, it wouldn't do much.

The real winner still depends on himself and the eight death knights around him.

"Su Mo, a stranger from the upper world~"

The soul fire burned in the Lich's eye sockets, and the black mist lingering around his body became more intense.

"You all have to die!!!"
