Chapter 9 Confrontation
As the undead soldiers approached, Roland showed a look of panic and threw out spell scrolls in a panic, trying to kill the approaching undead soldiers.

Hela also had a serious expression on her face, and faced the approaching undead soldiers with her sword in hand.

However, Hela looked like just an ordinary person who was a little stronger. Therefore, when she was besieged by several undead soldiers, she was suppressed by them for a while.

As more and more undead soldiers approached, Roland's expression gradually became panicked, and he cast another three-ring spell.

Third-level spell - resist fire ring.

A ring of fire spread out from Roland, driving away all the approaching undead soldiers. At the same time, Hela, who was within the attack range, was also knocked away by the ring of fire.

The high priest heaved a sigh of relief when he saw that Roland was so flustered that he even beat his own people.

Humph, it seems that you are just a flower grown in a greenhouse. You are so scared by a few undead ghosts. You are just a waste.

Seeing that Roland was in a panic due to the siege of the Undead soldiers, the high priest was too lazy to pay attention to him. He casually transformed several corpses near the altar into ordinary undead, and then asked these ordinary undead to move all the corpses in the open space to the altar.

Although a lot of his arrangements on these people were destroyed, they were still talents that he had raised for a period of time. If he recycled the waste from the altar, he might be able to transform them into a few one-ring undead, which would be his capital for escape later.

After commanding the undead to move most of the corpses onto the altar, the high priest began to prepare for the conversion.

Just as the high priest was about to convert the undead, Roland, who had pretended to be panicked, quickly regained his composure, tore open a few spell scrolls again, and accurately killed several nearby undead warriors. Then, he looked up at the high priest, activated the two spell scrolls in his hands, and smiled.

Third-level spell - Ice Explosion.

Third-level spell - Corpse Explosion.

After the two spells took effect, the corpses and ice on the altar exploded instantly, and the violent explosion almost hit the high priest's face.

When the high priest reacted and tried to cast a spell to put up a shield for defense, Roland decisively tore up another spell scroll.

Third-level spell - spell counterspell.

The high priest's spell was instantly interrupted. As the magic power backfired, a violent explosion hit his face.

Violent winds and waves erupted from the center of the altar, knocking away all the ordinary undead near the altar. Even some one-ring undead were blown away by the strong wind without any preparation.

Roland, who had been prepared, was naturally not greatly affected. Even when his clothes were blown by the wind and waves, he stood firmly in place.

The close-range Ice Explosion + Corpse Explosion will seriously injure the high priest even if he doesn't die.

Roland took out a few new spell scrolls from his arms and walked slowly towards the altar.

Just as Roland stepped onto the first step of the altar, a stream of black corrosive liquid rushed out from the dust and shot towards Roland's head at a high speed.

However, the corrosive liquid eventually stopped in front of Roland, and an elemental shield that was cast at some unknown time blocked the attack.

"Asshole, I'm going to kill you."

As a slight breeze blew by, the last bit of dust on the altar fell off, and the high priest, whose half body was blown off, was using his staff to support himself so as not to fall down.

His dark golden mask was covered with cracks, and the left half of his stomach was completely blown to pieces. The high priest's dried, almost stagnant flesh and blood was revealed in his torn clothes.

His ferocious, flat face was looking at Roland with gnashing teeth.

Roland laughed contemptuously and replied lazily.

"Just you?"

While he was mocking, Roland quietly used up the spell scroll in his hand.

Third-level spell - mind control. Seeing Roland's contemptuous eyes, the high priest was furious. Unable to suppress his anger, he didn't care about healing himself first, and directly raised his staff, trying to cast a spell to kill Roland.

Just as he was about to give Roland a ruthless blow, Hela, who had taken advantage of the resistance fire ring to escape from the battlefield and disappeared from the high priest's sight, appeared silently behind him.

When Roland attracted all the attention of the high priest, Hela took action.

The black sword turned into a flash of lightning and directly pierced the high priest's arm. At the same time, the red blood from the sword flowed into the high priest's body.

After the red blood was injected, the dark elements in the high priest's body immediately reacted with it, and the contact surface instantly dissolved into liquid and dripped down.

After breaking his arm, Hela also slapped his broken arm and staff away with force.

Hela's slapping her away at all costs also gave the high priest the opportunity to counterattack. He gathered a ball of black light with his remaining hand and blasted it directly at Hela.

The transparent shield was broken after only three seconds of delay. Then, a ball of black light hit Hela, knocking her away and hitting the wall in the distance, splashing up clouds of dust.

The high priest had no time to chase after him, so he turned around and tried to get his staff back.

But, it's too late.

In the few seconds it took the high priest to repel Hela, Roland used his magician's hand to grab the staff.

Holding the staff, Roland looked at the high priest and smiled.

"give me back!"

The high priest rushed towards Roland like a madman.

Roland flashed a short distance and appeared at the gate, away from the high priest.

Seeing the high priest's vitality decreasing due to the loss of his staff, Roland put the staff aside and used another spell scroll.

Third-level spell - Death curse.

As a black light filled with the breath of death was injected into the high priest's body, his remaining vitality was rapidly declining.

The high priest staggered a few steps on the stairs and fell down.

After rolling all the way to the bottom of the altar, the high priest's last bit of life completely disappeared.

However, even so, Roland did not get closer, but used two more spell scrolls.

When two second-ring spell attacks came, the high priest, who looked like a corpse, opened his eyes full of resentment. He looked at Roland and uttered vicious curses.

Roland remained calm in response.

This is nothing. In his previous life, he had even experienced cyberbullying. He doesn't care about the loser's foul mouth at all.

"No, no, no!"

Under the almost collapsed gaze of the high priest, several spell attacks blasted all parts of his body except his head into pulp. At the same time, a gray light was injected into his head, imprisoning his soul in his head.

ended.

Roland grasped the staff beside him and easily wiped off the mark of the high priest on the staff and replaced it with his own mark.
