Chapter 134: Danger (2/2)

"Understood, master!" Valera manifested her cross shi+eld of metal and bone and stood by Aldrich's side

Aldrich then leaped into the air with Valera ether, they landed in a thick trove of slaughtered fishrave markers floated

Aldrich raised his hand and chanted, "[Mass Grave Consuraves floated into Aldrich, replenishi+ng his le instant A blue aura flickered around hi the restoration

[Mana: 471/471]

Yes, thought Aldrich with a satisfactory nod

This was how Legion Necromancers should have been

A master of the dark arts who thrived in the chaos of the battlefield where all others choked under the bodies and death

Aldrich looked down at his pale hands, seeing the bony fingers of his true form flash underneath Were he not a Lich either, he would not nearly have been this strong either

Because his gaa such as the fact that it could not only have around 100 undead at max with the most optimized equipment and at level 100

As a Lich, even barely past level 40, Aldrich far surpassed that level of unit control This was the power of a racial transfora in its sheer power

As a Lich, unbound by the lih unstoppable force in a large scale fight like this

Though, of course, he had to consider his weaknesses still

A er cooldown at a whopping thirty seconds, and he could choose either to restore his health or hisindividual eneet hi his mana to defend himself, his [Grave Consumption] would not keep him alive

But that hy Valera was here She covered all his weaknesses She complemented his playstyle perfectly

"I enjoyed the thrill of letting loose and ripping apart our enemies," said Valera as she looked at the ar at a new dress "This armor, especially, it suits me so very much"

Valera drew close to Aldrich, al the touch of her hand across his shoulders Most likely, this gesture was just instinctive for vampires were seductive by nature At the same time, it made Aldrich smile, because he knew in lore that vampires showed seductive tendencies to those they wished to seduce to hunt or those they fully trusted

"But what Iby your side with my shi+eld raised to defend you, my master"

"There's nobody else I would trust to defend me like this, let alone someone as capable as you," said Aldrich He scanned around for raves Thousands more littered the battlefield all around him When the cooldown for his [Grave Consumption] reset, he would restore himself to full health

"Your praise is too uardian like h she noticeably trembled in happiness "I-,"

Valera paused, and for a single instant, Aldrich felt like the world had slowed down His enhanced Perception was screaer

This was a sensation that Aldrich had never felt before since he had becoed his forces and himself carefully so that he was never in risk

Every fiber of his being told him that his eternal end would come if he did not react However, he was too slow to react to the threat physically His reflexes and instincts told hith, he could not react in time

'Valera!' Aldrich immediately commanded Valera mentally, faster than how er and faster than Aldrich, immediately dashed behind Aldrich with her shi+eld raised up She had sensed the threat before Aldrich had due to her higher physicals and perception, and she knew exactly where it came from
