It only took Lilith and her party a short time to reach the royal city.

When she saw the wide open gates, she could no longer suppress the anger in her heart.

"Tyrant, I've been waiting for this day for a long time, and today I'm going to get justice for my dead family!" Angry, Lilith's silver hair fluttered in the air, and she was about to burst out when she couldn't hold it back.

But when they entered the city gates, they found that the great city was empty.

Yes, it's just corpses in one place.

Roy stopped Lilith from trying to go deeper, and said, "Be careful, I smell a strong smell of death and dark magic here. ”

"Were these people killed by dark magic?" asked Isaac.

"No, these people died from physical damage, and the smell of dark magic did come from them. Roy crouched down next to a corpse and examined it carefully.

Reese used a spear to turn over the corpses.

He found that the corpses had fatal wounds to their heads, and some of them were partially or completely shattered.

"What's going on?" Reese couldn't figure out what was going on.

And when Lilith saw these corpses, she seemed to remember something, and her face changed slightly.

Isaac was keenly aware of the change in Lilith's face, and asked, "Do you see anything?"

Lilith first showed a look of reminiscence, and after a moment she trembled slightly and said, "Our family is actually the nobles of the Northern Yuan Empire. I grew up listening to the horrors of the undead. And the only way to kill the dead is to destroy the central nervous system of their brains. ”

"The nobles of the Northern Yuan Empire?" Isaac said in surprise.

However, they all tacitly agreed that they did not ask, this is a high degree of privacy belonging to Lilith.

"These people ... Could it be the undead??" Reese asked.

"Quite possibly. However, before the undead plague completely broke out, they were actually not much different from normal people. Lilith replied with a nod.

Hearing this, Buckle also began to examine more corpses around him, along with Reese.

"Some of these corpses looked like they had been bitten to death by wild beasts, and some of them had their heads crushed. Bakr said.

"It's almost certain that these brain-shattering guys are the pre-converted undead, or rather humans infected by the undead plague. And the poor fellow who was torn apart should be a warrior who fought valiantly against the undead. Lilith shook her head and sighed as she stared at a corpse with almost all the flesh on its face.

However, Lilith quickly adjusted her mentality, and her body returned to normal, so she decided to walk along the mainland towards the palace.

On the way to the royal palace.

There are more and more corpses of soldiers and infected humans, and there are even corpses of nobles and ministers.

And most of these dead people died after being shot in the head.

"It seems that this army fighting the undead is very strong!" Bakr exclaimed.

When he saw the corpses of more and more ministers and nobles, Isaac said in surprise: "My God, are most of the upper officials here infected?"

Lilith bit her lip and walked towards the palace with her head down.

Lilith suddenly quickened her pace, and Roy and the others had to quickly follow her, after all, the situation here was too weird, and there was no telling what would happen.

"Who! Who killed the king first! Bastard!!"

Roy and the others were about to enter the gate, and Lilith's roar suddenly came from the depths of the palace.

After entering the palace, Roy and the others found that the intensity in the palace was higher than the outside, and it was almost like a slaughterhouse.

Blood had been smeared all over the corner, there were stumps and severed arms everywhere, and there was even a head at Roy's feet with round eyes, and it was staring straight at Roy.

On closer inspection, Roy even found the corpses of some apparently non-human creatures lying in the hall.

Roy was able to ask from them about the unusually strong aura of death and dark magic.

He walked over to the mangled body of a ghoul.

A glimmer of light appeared in Roy's eyes, which were blocked by bangs, and the sealing circle in the depths of his pupils began to loom.

"I saw killing, biting, devouring, and the thirst for fresh flesh ... These guys are simply crazy beasts!Is this the monster that the Northern Yuan Empire has been resisting!" Roy couldn't believe what he was seeing.

This looks like a human being, a monster or a demon born to devour flesh and blood!

Hearing Roy's conversation with the other companions, Lilith, who had her feet on the king's body, looked at the fatal wounds on his body and said:

"The undead have no emotions, they only obey the Lich King's commands, and honor their own thirst for fresh flesh. ”

Isaac asked, "So, who killed the king and these high-ranking people, the Yanqi Empire and the City of the Sun are still far from here." ”

Then he asked, "Lilith, did you find anything?"

Lilith stepped down from the throne, her mood was completely stable now, and although her hair was still silvery-white, the frenzied aura around her had dissipated.

She's even a little confused now.

As she walked past her companions, she said to them, "If I'm not mistaken, this must have been done by their own people." ”

"Do you mean infighting?" and why?" Roy was surprised.

Roy had some guesses, so he spoke: "Could it be that there is also an army of the Northern Yuan Empire that discovered the mutation of the king and the high-level, so he killed the high-level and the king who were about to transform into undead in advance?"

"Most likely. Lilith continued to walk outside, stopping when she reached the door.

She suddenly turned to her companions and said, "Didn't you notice? The guy who was called 'Human Slaughter' never appeared!"

"Yes, I said why it felt easier to attack the Northern Yuan Empire than expected!" Isaac suddenly realized.

"Oh no! we may have fallen into a trap!!" Lilith suddenly thought of a key point when she heard the word 'easy'.

"What trap?"

"Don't ask, I can't tell you now, let's go back and find Alex and report the situation here to him, he should be able to deduce the general situation. ”

After Lilith finished speaking, there was an anxious look on her face.

Roy and the others hadn't thought of the reason why Lilith was worried, but as the most knowledgeable person in this group of friends, the partners still trusted Lilith's judgment.

Wright's side.

They were finally on the verge of catching up with Amos' army.

But he didn't have time to renew his relationship with Amos, and in order to avoid unnecessary misunderstandings, Wright decided to bypass the army and continue on his fast march, knowing that there must be a vanguard ahead, and his companions with the Golden Lion Claws would be there.

Therefore, it is the vanguard that he wants to catch up, and as for the large army of Amos, let them be left alone.

Along the way, Wright encountered a situation similar to when he first entered the southern border of the Northern Yuan Empire.

"There are almost no civilians in the towns and villages, and not a single body has been seen. These people seem to have received unified instructions, and they are all leaving!" Wright said to Bradwin and Scott, who were beside him.

"I'm really confused, it looks more like a trap!" replied Scott.

"Trap? Yes, I've always felt uneasy, perhaps because the love affair here looks more like a trap. ”

"Wright, what are we going to do next?" Bradwin asked.

Wright looked up at the front and said, "According to the original plan, catch up with the vanguard first!"
