Chapter 45 Evelin

As Eli finished his words, you could hear a pin drop in the tent.

Although there was Cecilia between her and Eli, Evelyn felt heavily surrounded by Eli's aura.

What do you mean I need you? Is this a confession? It doesn't sound like it, and this is only the first...nth time we've met. I've seen you from a distance a few times, but this is the first time we've met face to face.

"Mr....Mr. Commander, what do you need...what do you need Evelin to do?"

The Necromancer's voice was soft and sticky, so sweet that it was sickening just to listen to it.

"Summon the Undead Demons! How many demons can Miss Evelyn summon and control at most?"

The atmosphere in the tent was vaguely ambiguous, but Eli had no intention of flirting with girls at the moment. He was only concerned about the mutation of the demon clan.

"Like...like the demon soldiers outside, there are about 5,000 demons..."

Evelyn silently calculated her own limit of magic power after hearing this. If she cast the spell recklessly, she could probably summon and control about six thousand undead demons, but her magic power would be exhausted afterwards and her origin would be damaged. In order to ensure her own safety, five thousand magics was her normal limit.

Five thousand demons was a good number for a necromancer who was not even a high-level warrior, but it was indeed a little less for Eli's needs.

According to conservative estimates, there are at least four or five hundred thousand demon soldiers gathered in a demon city. Once demon soldiers of this magnitude begin to mutate, if five thousand undead demons are used to transport and bury them alive, it will take more than a hundred trips back and forth to complete the seal.

Although the undead demons can carry out the transportation and burying work without sleep, more than a hundred trips would take too much time. The efficiency of retaking the city would not be high. It would not be enough, really not enough.

“Miss Evelin, your current strength… is level five, right?”

Eli tilted his head to observe Evelyn, and after looking at her to the point that she felt uncomfortable, Eli asked the necromancer.

"It's not far from the sixth level, but it will take some time for me to practice hard."

Evelyn suppressed her discomfort and answered that her strength was outstanding among her peers, but it was indeed not good enough compared to Commander Eli and his personal beautiful guards.

"If you reach level 6, how many demons can you summon and control? If... you can break through to level 7, how many demons can you summon and control?"

Because magicians are rare, and necromancers are even rarer, Eli had no idea about the strength of necromancers and could only continue to ask Evelyn.

"At level six, she can probably summon and control 20,000 demons. Level seven... Evelyn won't be able to break through to level seven within five years. Entering a higher level is a difficult hurdle for any cultivator. But if she breaks through to level seven, Evelyn's strength should increase dramatically. Conservatively speaking, she can summon and control 80,000 demons, right?"

Evelyn calculated silently in her mind that the path of cultivation for a necromancer is complete, with the reference of predecessors. The main manifestation of strength is that a necromancer who summons an army of undead has a rough number of the number of undead creatures he can manipulate at each level. Evelyn's estimates are all based on evidence.

20,000 demons at the sixth level, 80,000 demons at the seventh level...

In other words, if Evelyn breaks through to the sixth level in a short period of time, it will only take more than 20 trips to seal the mutated demon soldiers and bury them alive, which seems okay. And if she can break through to the seventh level in a short period of time, it will only take a few trips to recapture a city, which can be said to be very efficient.

It seems that it is time for the little blue pill to make another appearance. Before leaving for the Duke's Mansion, Eli gave Jessica and Cecilia a little blue pill each, which not only helped them break through to the seventh level, but also strengthened their foundation and enhanced their talents.

This kind of magic medicine probably only exists in Eli's hands, and there are not many of them. Eli will never give it out easily unless he is particularly close to someone who is trustworthy and talented. Even though Evelyn has become a key figure in dealing with the changes in the demon clan, Eli cannot simply hand over the little blue pill to her.

Evelyn looked about the same age as Jessica and Cecilia, but before taking the medicine, Jessica and Cecilia were already sixth-level warriors. Evelyn was one level lower than them despite being roughly the same age, which also meant that her cultivation talent was not as good as Jessica and Cecilia's.

But the two female personal guards raised by Eli are the future demigods of the human race, and they are at the peak of their growth period. The only ones in the world who can compete with them in talent are the super geniuses of various races. Evelyn's talent is only slightly worse than theirs, which can be regarded as an outstanding talent.

“Evelyn, I have a way for you to easily break through the sixth level and most likely directly enter the seventh level, but... you will have to pay a price..."

Looking at the necromancer whom he just met, Eli's face was serious. In order to fight against demons, he needed Evelyn to make a breakthrough, but the blue pill could not be given to her directly. As he said, he needed Evelyn to pay some price.

Straight into the seventh level? Straight across the threshold to the higher level?

Evelin suspected that she was hallucinating because she was too nervous. Where in the world could such a method exist? Even the various natural treasures that only existed in legends rarely directly enhanced strength. After all, if taking medicine could lead to a breakthrough, then why would everyone practice? What right did General Eli have to say such a thing?
But even though she couldn’t believe it, Evelin still asked tentatively, “What’s the price?”

"Swear to the gods that you will never reveal this matter. If you break your promise, you will be punished by heaven and die."

Eli said seriously, this is just the first one.

In a world where gods exist, swearing an oath to gods is not just talk, especially since there is a God of Oaths in the Pantheon. He oversees all oaths in the world. If an oath made under his witness is violated, he will take action and bring down divine punishment.

Necromancers were once heretics on the continent. There were no gods they believed in in the Pantheon. Instead, they believed in a special god outside the realm of gods, the God of the Underworld, who was in charge of the underworld, and the underworld was the paradise of undead creatures.

The God of the Underworld and his underworld are independent of the divine world and the mortal world, but part of the lives that die in the mortal world dissipate between heaven and earth, while the other part (except the demons) enter the underworld and become the souls of undead creatures, which is the soul fire.

Today, the underworld is also being invaded by the demon world, which is the key reason why the necromancers are determined to fight against the devil.

"Swear to Hades that you will never reveal this."

Eli added that this was the second rule. As for the consequences of violating it... Necromancers were almost all fanatics. They would not violate the oath they made to the God of the Underworld. If something unexpected happened, they would not be able to enter the underworld and gain eternal life after death...

"The last one is the same as Little Xica and Little Lily..."

"Be my woman."

Eli said calmly.
