Chapter 394: Darkness and Decay

    What exactly is the conspiracy?

    For several days, Loria was suspicious, and she thought that killing a few patrolling undead would attract the attention of the Scourge base...... However, she had wiped out a whole few patrols, and the base was still undisturbed and undisturbed.

    Things were so unusual that they disrupted her plan to lure them to a narrow spot so that the scenery could catch them all, and Vanilla, which had been used as bait, retreated into the depths of the forest with Elymeow, leaving Loria lurking nearby - most of the time, she hid in a tall old tree, and only went to the ground at night.

    Although she has a fairly rich experience in forest survival and has a large increase in ability at night, it is still quite troublesome for Loria to keep an eye on the sleepless undead...... She needed to sleep, and the undead had no weakness during the day, so she didn't want to be killed by the undead in her sleep, so she had to hide farther away, and only approach the undead base at night to find out what they were doing.

    In the evening, Loria was climbing a tree overlooking the small Scourge base built on the intersection, and after several days of observation, she learned more and more about the undead.

    ……

    Valanos didn't care about the missing two abominations and a bunch of ghouls, and he just wanted to take his men around hunting humans, but he was afraid of being convicted for deserting his post - whether it was true or not, the lich who wanted to climb up felt that he must be jealous of his colleagues, who might be watching him from a tree in the forest at the moment, so that they could seize the opportunity to step on his throne.

    When evening came, the sky soon became dark, and before the sunset could dissipate any residual heat, it was covered by dark clouds, and they were very low. But he was reluctant to let rain down, and the weather was silent and gloomy, not long after. Even the moonlight can't see through the clouds.

    Tonight is dark.

    In human rhetoric, the undead must be creatures belonging to 'darkness'. However, the Lich Varanos did not like the weather, and he stood in the base and cursed at the sky, accusing it of being so hesitant about the rain, and then retreated into his psychic tower.

    ……

    Whether it's magical darkness or simply darkness without light, they are Miss Loria's good friends, and there is no better weather than now—the enemy can't see her, but she can see the surroundings. And this dark night seemed to give her more strength.

    The Dark Family, while very, very middle-of-the-road, describes vampires well...... She's a real creature of darkness compared to the dirty, foul-smelling undead.

    Although Miss Loria has always considered herself a human being, and her thoughts and thoughts are no different from those of humans, the weather makes her feel very pleasant and comfortable.

    Jumping from the tree, she walked straight towards the base of the Scourge, the experience of fighting the undead, the meticulous observation and the good condition of the night gave her immense confidence, although her deeds will eventually be buried in the silent darkness, but what does it matter?

     bury a scourge base in the dark of night or something...... Let the tormented filthy souls look forward to redemption.

     Salvation darker than this night.

    ……

     Back in the Psychic Tower. Varanos finally felt better, and he went around the second floor and lit a lamp on the wall. Lay down on a simple cot.

     The more undead have an independent will, the more they will be bound by some habits before death...... Varanos loved the confined space inside the Psychic Tower, which reminded him of his days in Dalaran, when he had just arrived in the city of mages with dreams, and although he had no money and could not find a door to enter the wizarding world, he was happy every day in a small apartment on the outskirts of the city, looking forward to the future.

    The landlord's youngest daughter is lovely and kind to him...... Varanos lay on his cot and remembered the old days, and he could no longer remember what the girl looked like. He filled in his memory with a random face, the face of a woman full of fear and pain who had been tortured and killed by him and his ghouls in the North.

    " is not very similar. The girl was much prettier...... I love to laugh. ”

     muttering to himself, Varanos rolled over. Once upon a time, he also fantasized about marrying the person he liked and forming his own family in the magic capital, but when he finally became an apprentice of a second-rate mage, the girl was already the mother of three children.

    Later, then there was no later, and Varanos, who longed for strength and ran for it all his life, had nothing to remember...... All the good things in life are pitifully scarce.

    The annoying rain finally fell, and the sound of the rain was too dense to drown out a qiē, but it made the psychic tower seem quiet, and the lich turned over on his thin little bed, obviously only a handful of bones bound by magic remained, and there was still such a strange nostalgia.

    Won't you get into trouble?

    ……

    The black blade that seemed to suck the light into it slashed through, and was torn apart by the icy ghoul, and the last sentry was silently broken.

    The sword is still the same sword, but when she has nothing to do, Loria poured all her shadow magic into it, and the true silver holy sword that radiates all the time has become strange since then, and the holy light that flashes on the sword body has become a lingering shadow, and even the sword body has become dark black.

    She remembered the legend of the Ember Bringer, who said that the Holy Light Crystal on the sword was originally a treasure of the Orc Shadow Council, a rare gem known as the Shadow Crystal, but her grandfather had transformed it with the power of the Holy Light...... Now, Loria knows that light and darkness do translate into each other.

    Although it made Brillette's gift to her look strange, at least the Silver Shadow Sword came in handy now, and Loria didn't have to worry about exposing her problems with the sparkle of her weapon.

     What an irony, Loria thought to herself, light and darkness are one side of the world, but the undead are not on either side.

    A black circle appeared at her feet, devouring the remains of the ghoul and leaving nothing left on the ground...... Similar to the Frost Nova's mana, it can also be used for Shadow Magic, but this new magic naturally doesn't freeze enemies, and so far has only been used to throw trash and clean up traces.

    The heavy rain finally fell, diluting the smells and traces of the living, and the beautiful sound of the rain was enough to drown out so many sounds.

    She held up her umbrella and stepped on the rotten land polluted by natural disasters. (To be continued)
