Necromancer: Rise of the Undead Lord - Chapter 26

Chapter 26: Centaur Blessing

Chu Qi took the compass and put it in his bag.

Following Gebre and Adams, Chu Qi brought Liang Yuan out of the city gate.

On the official road in front of the city gate, a guard was anxiously pacing back and forth, holding a letter in his hand.

Just as he was turning around, he saw Chu Qi and Liang Yuan. He revealed a happy expression and immediately went forward to welcome them.

“Warrior! Warrior, please help me. I am a guard of the Misty Forest. My army has been attacked. I hope you can help me save my comrade Miya.”

It was another mission to the Misty Forest. It was the same as his main storyline..

Chu Qi did not refuse and directly agreed.

“Ding! Accepted mission [Missing Miya]. Prompt: This mission has a certain risk. The mission reward will be determined according to the completion status.”

This was the first time Chu Qi had seen a mission with a hint. Usually, such a mission would have some hidden bosses. Defeating these hidden bosses would give even richer rewards.

Seeing that Chu Qi had accepted the mission, the city guards on the official road finally heaved a sigh of relief. They returned to the city wall and watched Chu Qi leave.

…

Under the lead of Gebre and Adams, Chu Qi first arrived at the Centaur Tribe outside the Misty Forest.

The entire tribe was very small, only about one mu in size. It was really very narrow for a tribe, and there were only one or two people guarding the entrance.

“The Centaur Tribe… Isn’t it too small? Is it really reliable to have so few people as allies?”

Liang Yuan could not help but sigh when he saw the appearance of this tribe. Beside him, Gebre and Adams immediately covered Liang Yuan’s mouth, acting very afraid.

Chu Qi narrowed his eyes. This tribe didn’t want them to see it as unbearable. There must be something hidden inside. The four of them quickly walked forward and entered the tribe.

As soon as they entered, more than a hundred centaurs suddenly appeared and surrounded them. The people at the outpost also raised their bows and attacked Chu Qi and the others.

More than a hundred bows and arrows were pulled full on the bowstring, facing this group of uninvited guests. Chu Qi decisively took out his personal weapon and then shouted.

“I am Falling Dust, an ally. I came to ask for an alliance.”

The surrounding centaurs did not put down their bows easily. Instead, they slowly dispersed.

In the crowd, an abnormally tall centaur slowly walked over. Chu Qi recognized this person as the one who had helped him reach Forward Charge City.

“Put down your weapons, we’re not enemies.” A deep voice sounded from the mouths of the people who had come out. The surrounding centaurs also pushed open with an order and all entered the only tent of the Centaur Tribe.

It turned out that most of the people came out of this tent, but the tent was so small. Chu Qi was very curious about this tent.

Even though this tent was bigger than all the tents he had seen, it was not big enough to accommodate more than a hundred centaurs.

“My name is Armites, and I am the sacrifice of this tribe. Come in with me.”

Armites saw his curiosity and desire to explore. He turned his head and gestured for Chu Qi to follow. He himself turned around first and entered the tent.

Chu Qi followed in. The tent looked very big on the outside, and its interior was as wide as several football fields. It looked like an extremely powerful spatial artifact.

“This is the ancestral land passed down from generation to generation by our Centaur Race. It was refined by our ancestors using a Void Worm.”

Armites looked at Chu Qi and the others and introduced the origins of the tent.

Void Worms were void creatures that were about ten meters long. They were like maggots. Because Void Worms could not reproduce,

Their numbers had always been fixed.

The void creatures lived in the void rift with the Burning Legion. In the future invasion of Earth, the Void Legion would also be the main force of the invaders.

Void Worms were the more special type of void creatures. They were the only ones who could open void cracks freely. Their powerful teleportation ability had an extremely great effect on the battle.

It was also because of this ability that every time a Void Worm appeared, the experts of the various races would hunt it. Now, there were only three Void Worms left in the base of the void creatures.

The interior of the tent was not like what Chu Qi imagined it to be. It was a small world inside.

There were lakes, green lands, mountain ranges, and even all kinds of plant animals. Fine buildings were neatly placed to the side. That should be where the centaurs lived. There was also a training ground in the distance for the young centaurs.

Chu Qi followed Amites into a small house.

“You’re here for the Autumn Alliance, right? When we were helping you get rid of the frontlines of the Burning Legion, we already sensed that they were about to return.”

Armites immediately exposed Chu Qi’s motive. Chu Qi didn’t hide it and nodded.

“Apart from you, we still have to find the Werebear Tribe to form an alliance. Only by receiving your help can we resist the Burning Legion’s vanguard army.”

Armites was stunned for a moment, as if he had thought of something. Then, he became normal again and said to Chu Qi, “The Werebear Tribe revered martial arts. The strength you need to recruit them with is not enough.”

“Even if you are the fastest growth among all the Undead Lords, there isn’t enough time for you to grow slowly now.”

“To get to the Werebear Tribe, you have to pass through the Misty Forest. The poisonous mushroom monsters, the giant predator with the body of an eagle and the head of the human, and the Swift Wind that has fused with the darkness will be your greatest challenge.”

“When you complete all three challenges, you will be able to defeat the number one warrior of the werebear tribe and obtain its alliance.”

Armites told Chu Qi what he needed to do and gestured a series of strange actions at him.

“Ding! Accepted mission [Misty Forest’s Trial], received the blessings of the centaur.”

[Misty Forest’s Trial]

[Blessing of the Centaur]

Blessing Effect: Movement Speed+30%

Attack Speed :+30%

Health Points :+30%

Chu Qi heard the notification in his ear and understood the meaning of Armites’ actions just now.

“It’s just some help for you. I look forward to the day you become strong.” Armites bowed to Chu Qi and left the hall. Chu Qi and the others were also teleported to the entrance of the tribe by a force.

The blessings of the centaurs were very powerful. With this buff, Chu Qi had a lot of information about the trial mission.

Relying on the 30% increase in speed, Chu Qi and Liang Yuan quickly arrived at the depths of the Misty Forest. The two city guards didn’t dare to enter the Misty Forest and ran away.
