Chapter 208: Reincarnation of the Undead
Ling Xi looked at the undead warriors who seemed to be walking endlessly towards the spatial portal, and thought to himself, this is the legendary forbidden spell: Undead Reincarnation?
"How did you master this spell?"
"Hehe, this was originally the spell of the underworld among the inhabitants of the human realm, but now the underworld has disappeared from the continent, and the necromancy has also been lost. However, I learned from the Demon Realm. Tonight, there are still a few villages to go, you lead the way in front!"
Ling Xi hid the worry on her face. "Okay, this way, please. ”
The next day, just after dawn, Yi Xin was leading the people of the Holy City Guards back. The anti-magic potions that were distributed to the various bases around the Great Wall have also been distributed.
When passing by the villain's village, one of the team members next to him first noticed something strange in the village.
"Captain, captain, here...... Is there something that has changed?"
Yi Xin didn't care, he glanced at the fallen gate at the entrance of the village, "Oh, did you say that the sign of the Wicked Village is missing? It's okay, I accidentally broke it yesterday." ”
"No, Captain......"
The team member trembled,
"Well, there's a weird atmosphere here...... Something doesn't seem right. There seems to be no one on the street!"
The others also became vigilant and stopped to look into the village.
On the street, where hooligans are usually rampant, there is no one to see at this time. At the door of the tavern, a wooden barrel overturned, and the wine flowed to the ground. The gamblers' money bags were left on the ground, and the gold coins were spilled, but no one picked them up. On an outdoor dining table, the cups and bowls were still there, but they seemed to have been knocked over due to a sudden crisis, and the cups and plates fell to the ground.
Yi Xin also felt this silent and eerie atmosphere, which was also filled with a strong aura of death.
"Did you know that I was going to pass through here today and hid......? Take a look at the village!" he immediately ordered.
His men immediately ran into the village, and Yi Xin followed suit.
He looked around cautiously, the streets were empty, only the echo of their footsteps could be heard, and the surrounding buildings were still as usual, some doors and windows were open, but no one was in or out.
"You guys, let's go to the nearby village!"
"Yes!"
Several others also walked away.
After a while, the person who checked it came back and reported, "Report to the captain!
The people who had gone to other villages also came back, panting and saying, "Report, report to the captain!" in the surrounding villages...... ...... in the village"
"Speak quickly!"
"In the surrounding villages...... There is no one left...... "
"How could it be ......" Yi Xin gritted his teeth with hatred. "Although these people are heinous outlaws, they are only banished, and they are not guilty of death, who did it......
He saw strange traces of blood in the dust on the ground.
It wasn't so much bloodstains as it was something like a mist of blood, covering the entire ground.
"They must have died, and the whole village disappeared overnight, but there were no bones left, it's so strange......! Inform the people of the Holy City and find out about this matter!"
"Captain......" the warriors hesitated, "This is the village of the wicked, too far away from other continents, even if there is a dead person, no one will care......"
"Damn!" Yi Xin was unwilling, but also helpless. "If I let me know who did such a unconscionable thing, I will not spare him!"
Indeed, as the warriors say, no one cares about it here, and even if a dozen villages disappear overnight, the empire will not take it seriously.
Soon, the incident became a mystery and was forgotten.
In the blink of an eye, it's time for the annual tree of life to bloom. In the sky above the Divine Domain, lush flowers bloom in the clouds of the sky, attracting countless tourists to enjoy the grand scene.
Although the branches of the Tree of Life are widely spread throughout the continent, the only one that can blossom and bear fruit is the Mother Tree, which is a towering giant tree located in the center of the Divine Domain.
The Tree of Life blooms once every ten years, and at the beginning of its bloom, the flowers are budding and the emerald green leaves are covered with silver and snow. In the middle of the flower, the blooming flowers are pink, and a pink cloud floats in the headspace of the entire divine domain, and the petals are sprinkled with the wind, like a fantasy.
At the end of the flowering period, the flowers in the entire canopy are like blood, enthusiastic and gorgeous.
Some people say that this red color represents prosperity and prosperity.
It is also said that every time the tree of life blooms, it is accompanied by the brutal slaughter of the demon clan and the dark elf clan by the Thunder Family, which is the evidence of the indelible blood.
In recent decades, the Tree of Life has seen its flowering period get shorter and shorter, which the Pantheon explains is related to the depletion of the tree's root system near the Southern Dragon Island.
The Thunder Family, whose mission is to protect the Tree of Life, has tried every means to prolong the flowering period of the Tree of Life, at the expense of other races, in exchange for fruitful results after the flowering period.
When the Tree of Life blooms, visitors from all continents flock to the sky to worship the blossoming spectacle that blooms in the sky.
As the ruler of the mainland, the Thunder Emperor will also hold a grand charismatic ceremony at this time. On the top of the rooftop, inherit God's grace, listen to God's will, and continue the traditions of this continent.
This year, the flowering season of the Tree of Life is just in time for the enrollment season of the major high-level magic academies, and the Divine Domain is full of talents from all walks of life.
In June, when the warm wind blew through the holy city, the students who participated in the free cultivation had returned to the magic academy one after another.
Hei Yu was lying on his back on the big bed in the dormitory, and the first thing he thought about was whether Bai Shengye and Shen Zai Jing had returned, as well as Reimu.
With their potential, it should be no problem for their strength to break through to the peak realm.
Turning over and jumping off the bed, he moved his muscles and bones, and first knocked on Bai Shengye's door, but no one answered.
"I guess I'm busy in the research institute, he used to be always buried in potion research, and since he made the anti-magic potion, he hasn't been idle......"
Thinking about it, he paced again to the bedroom of Shenzai and Reimu, knocked on the door, and still no one answered. I can't help but feel a little lost.
"Could it be that I've risen too quickly and they haven't come back yet?"
Ling Xiao put down her luggage in the bedroom, planning her cultivation plan for the next few days, with her current strength, even without the protection of Black Feather, she could go to the core of the forest on the outskirts of the city alone.
The black feather door didn't knock, so he walked in while complaining:
"Wouldn't it be that we're the only ones on the whole floor to come back? So, it's just me and Yi Xin who are the first to take the registration exam for the Advanced Magic School? I don't want to continue to be classmates with him, alas, it's scary to think about. ”
