Chapter 67: The Duchess of Blood
The capital of the dead.
As the capital of the land of the undead, the capital of the dead can be described as very prosperous, especially at night, when a large number of nocturnal undead appear to keep the whole city busy.
There are also a lot of Diya people here, and they don't show fear of the undead who pass by, as if these are not undead who eat people and don't spit out bones, but some normal human beings.
Unlike cities in the traditional sense, the buildings in the City of the Dead are made of white bone, and the gutters are not stinky water, but black-brown blood.
The City of the Dead is shrouded in a canopy of death all year round, and even the most intense summer sun at noon cannot penetrate it, allowing those undead creatures who hate sunlight to live happily here.
This also leads to the Diya people living here, because they can't be exposed to the sun for a long time, their skin looks very white, even whiter than the skin of those white elves, which is also one of the best standards for the Diya people.
These Diya people living in the city of the dead have become indispensable members of the kingdom of the undead, and the appearance of the town has changed greatly compared to the Diya people themselves.
This change is not just a simple white skin, they can be said to be evolving in an unknown direction, and it is not certain that a human race will not be able to live in the sun in tens of thousands of years.
There are quite a few subspecies of humans on the continent, and there are also many subspecies of other races, and even if a new subspecies of humans does appear, the people on the continent will not be too surprised.
The Shadow Spire is the tallest building in the entire Capital of the Dead.
The forbidden spell of the Death Dome is also released by the Shadow Spire, and other defenses in the City of the Dead are also connected to the Shadow Spire, which can be controlled by the Shadow Spire to defend against enemies.
It can be said that the Shadow Spire is the core building of the entire City of the Dead, and the other buildings are built around this tower made of thousands of demon bones, as long as the Shadow Spire does not fall, then the entire City of the Dead will not fall.
Led by Cameron, Kel'thugad entered the heavily guarded Shadowspire, and his arrival directly doubled the large number of undead guards in the Shadowspire itself, apparently Kelthugad did not gain the trust of the Council of the Dead.
A demigod lich who had never heard of it wanted to join them, which made the Council of the Undead have to attach great importance to it, after all, the demigod level is already the strongest under the gods, and there are only nine demigod powerhouses in the undead kingdom on the surface, which has steadily suppressed the human kingdoms, causing the new alliance led by humans not to dare to act rashly.
A demigod powerhouse can be said to be a strategic weapon, and if any country has a demigod powerhouse, their status on the continent will improve by leaps and bounds.
Therefore, all the countries on the continent are respectful to the demigod-level powerhouses, and the kings do not dare to offend them, and they want the demigod powerhouses to join their country at a great price.
There is no country that does not want its country to have more demigod-level powerhouses, even the undead kingdom that already has many demigod powerhouses is no exception.
This time, the arrival of Kel'thugad alarmed the upper echelons of the entire realm of the undead, and some of the undead who knew the gossip were discussing it in private, and no other news during this time could compare with it.
Kel'thugad looked at the undead he had encountered along the way, his arrival had livened up the Shadow Spire, and the higher-ups of the Realm of the Dead hurried from other cities in the Realm of the Dead to the large square in front of the Shadow Spire in a teleportation array.
A special meeting is about to take place here, the convention on Kel'thugad becoming a member of the Parliament of the Dead.
Kel'thugad is a demigod-level powerhouse, and there is a clear rule in the realm of the undead, as long as you can reach the demigod level of the undead or the Diya, and there is no problem with your identity background, then you can join the Council of the Dead.
And Kel'thugad also has the recommendation of Council member Cameron, otherwise, no matter how strong his strength is, he will not be able to enter the core of the Dark Spire of the City of the Dead without the recommendation of the high-level of the Undead Realm.
Although Cameron is not usually in charge of affairs, his prestige in the realm of the dead is extremely high, and he is almost the leader of many lichs in the realm of the undead, and he can even rank in the top three of the council of the dead before his strength is damaged.
Kel'thugad now needs an identity in the realm of the dead!
Directly becoming a member of the Council of the Undead, the highest organization in the realm of the undead, is his most ideal identity goal, and Kel'thugad, unlike Chen Yue, does not have any idea of wanting to hide his strength.
The higher the strength of Kel'thugad, the more the realm of the dead will value him, giving him a higher status and corresponding rights and obligations.
With the resources of the Undead Realm, Kel'thugad can improve his strength more quickly, and it can also allow Naxxramas to gain the approval of the Necromantic God System more quickly, so he intervened at the risk of being discovered.
Chen Yue's current strength deeply stimulated Kel'thugad, and after several discussions with Cameron, he finally decided to use this straightforward adventure plan.
If the plan can be successful, it will undoubtedly give Kel'thugad direct access to the core people in the realm of the undead, as long as he can integrate into it, then the task given to him by Chen Yue is equivalent to completing most of it.
"Lord Cameron, where did you get your lich companions? I've never seen this lich before, he can't be the remnant of those arcanists, right? ”
A beautiful female voice came from behind them in Kel'thugad. ,
"Blood Duchess Victoria Salome, you're coming so fast!" Cameron snorted coldly, not wanting to answer the other party at all.
"Giggles! Lord Cameron's notice, how dare I slack off. The Blood Duchess Victoria said slowly, "You are one of the nine members of the Council of the Dead, and there is no reason for a member of the House of Lords like us to disobey it. ”
"Humph! You also know that I am one of the Nine Councillors, and my friend will be the tenth Councillor if nothing else, and he is not something that a little legendary-level vampire like you can offend, and you slander him as the remnant of the Arcanist? Just wait for his wrath. Cameron sneered.
The Blood Duchess's eyes widened, she originally thought that Cameron was only one of his subordinates, but she didn't expect it to be the demigod-level powerhouse discussed in this meeting.
