Chapter 49 Unscathed
  Just when Tan Xiao was about to leave in a big way, a dark hole appeared near him.

Before he could react, a skull with a crown on its head slowly emerged from the darkness. The contrast between the pale white and the pitch black made the bright red gem on the crown of its head look dim for a moment.

"That skill just now looks familiar. Give me a try."

The lich wearing a gorgeous robe stepped forward and walked out of the black hole that suddenly appeared.

This was the first time that Tan Xiao saw the appearance of a lich in the game Magic World. Looking at the two groups of scarlet fire in his empty eyes, Tan Xiao felt that his soul was shaking.

"Oh, it can't be released in a short time? That's right, it seems to be my clan's skill."

The lich turned the ring on his hand habitually and looked at Tan Xiao, half-smiling but not smiling.

"Who arranged the chess piece? But forget it, His Highness wants you to die, so go ahead and die. I will pretend that I don't know your true identity."

Then without any unnecessary nonsense, it directly released the seventh-level magic [Falling Stars], which is a skill that can only be learned by humans with level 50 or above.

A magic circle with a diameter of more than a hundred meters was generated above Tan Xiao's head, and dozens of meteorites fell towards Tan Xiao and Lina with flowing fire.

"you go first!"

Tan Xiao used the tornado to blow Lina away from the center of the magic circle, while he ran in the other direction.

His guess was correct. The [Falling Stars] released by the Lich was indeed a directional skill. Those meteorites were still flying towards him after Tan Xiao and Lina separated.

The lich didn't seem to be interested in Lina at all, and it focused all its attention on Tan Xiao.

Tan Xiao's figure flickered on the battlefield, escaping in all directions, while the meteorites were chasing after him like tarsal maggots.

His speed began to slow down, but the meteorite shot out faster.

boom--

There was a loud noise and all the meteorites collided together, exactly where Tan Xiao was.

The roar was mixed with gravel, and thick black smoke instantly enveloped the battlefield.

"Your Excellency Feng Sheng!"

Lina thought Tan Xiao had been killed, so she let out a shrill scream, and tears flowed from her eyes unconsciously.

She felt that she was too weak to help Tan Xiao, which led to today's situation.

Lina stared at the Lich angrily, and her heart began to pulse violently, not with fear but with hatred. Her father disappeared when she was young. She asked many people for help, but no one was willing to help her. She never hated anyone.

Her own profession is not suitable for combat, and there is no way to change the fact that she is better at assisting. Lina can only choose to find teammates.

Tan Xiao was the teammate she finally found. For the first time, she was so angry. She was not angry at the undead who appeared out of nowhere, nor was she angry at Tan Xiao for not being strong enough, but at herself for being weak.

She had never hated herself so much in a day,

"Why am I so weak! Why!"

She shouted in her heart, but she didn't notice that her pupils were stained with a light copper color.

However, the Lich did not look away. Instead, he looked at the black smoke on the battlefield with confusion.

"Ok?"

It seemed to notice something, but before it could make any move, a wisp of black smoke came to Lina's side.

"Shadow Pattern!"

Tan Xiao's body suddenly reorganized. It turned out that he had just used the skill [Shadow Pattern] to disperse his body into smoke to avoid the damage of the falling stars, and then reorganized again.

"Gain!"

Tan laughed and shouted loudly, pulling Lina back from the edge of being lost.

Her eyes were full of surprise, and then her body reacted instinctively, using [Magic Recovery] and [Acceleration]. She followed Tan Xiao, who was running at full speed, and quickly distanced herself from the lich.

Seeing Tan Xiao's skill just now, the Lich fell into deep thought.
  "He won't be that lord's secret move, right?" It thought of a black-haired woman wearing a robe, surrounded by dispelling black mist. It was lucky enough to see the other party once. Her eyes were boundless void, exuding black energy.

"Probably not, otherwise the taboo would have been triggered long ago."

The Lich touched his chin with his fingers, making a sound of bone tapping.

Seemingly making up its mind, it turned towards Tan Xiao and Lina who were running away quickly.

"In the worst case, I'll sacrifice myself."

"Spell shield, soul control, life drain, corrosive touch!"

In an instant, a protective shield made of frost rose up around its body. When it saw Tan Xiao's shadow pattern, it had already regarded Tan Xiao as a possible threat to him.

As the red light in its eyes surged, countless threads shot out, passing through the bodies of the two people in front.

Tan Xiao and Lina instantly felt that their bodies could not move, followed by the rapid passage of life.

Their health bars began to drop at a speed visible to the naked eye, and the strands of life energy converged towards the Lich's eyes through the red threads, which was the effect of life-draining.

At the same time, Tan Xiao and Lina's bodies began to be covered with a thin layer of frost, which was obviously caused by the lich's cold air eroding their bodies.

In just a few breaths, neither Tan Xiao nor Lina could move.

"."

Tan Xiao realized that he was probably going to be in trouble this time. The character reset would bring him huge troubles, especially the drop of the Arcane Heart, but he had nothing to do.

At this moment, a sudden change occurred.

As Lina's expression turned ferocious due to pain, her expression suddenly changed, from extreme pain to indifference.

Lina's eye color turned copper again, and her pupils began to become elongated, and fine scales appeared on her face.

As if she was a different person, she tore off the silk thread inserted into her body and looked at the lich.

"Roar--"

A roar that didn't sound like a human came from her mouth, dragon roars came out, and many orcs around her subconsciously took half a step back.

"Today is not going well. Why do even the descendants of the bronze dragon show up?"

The lich, who had always ignored the creatures in this area, began to hesitate for the first time. It feels like it should keep a low profile. The water here seems a bit deep.

Before it could react, a black-purple wave spurted out of Lina's mouth.

The Lich's floating body fell to the ground in an instant, creating a huge hole in the ground. Hot magma splashed, which for a moment exceeded the expectations of everyone present, including Tan Xiao.

"Turtle. If you don't sing, it will be a blockbuster?"

Before he could let out a few rainbow farts, Lina had quickly recovered and fell into a coma at the same time.

Tan Xiao quickly hugged Lina, but found that her body was horribly high.

"Hiss—so hot?!"

Tan Xiao gritted his teeth, carried Lina behind him, and fled towards the west of Watts Heights.

Because he knew that the city of Fast had fallen to the north, the flat Fasha Plain was to the east, the south was tightly surrounded by the orcs, and only the steep cliffs to the west could allow them to briefly escape the pursuit of the orc army.

Tan Xiao could take advantage of Lina's hard-earned opportunity to jump off the west cliff and escape temporarily.

However, before he could run a few steps, the lich's voice sounded again,
  "Gravity breath, it smells so familiar, hahahaha!"

It was unscathed.
