Chapter 6: A Feast for the Demons (3)
[Seated: When we are resurrected]
(Abel Retan is a magical apprentice in Naruf, an island town on the east coast of Western Continents.) Despite the peace and tranquility of life, Abel knew that the peace of Dongzhou would be shattered one day. However, he couldn't imagine what this day would really look like)
"Attention students!" the teacher slammed on the podium, "This is an extremely evil spell, and the state will punish the magicians who use this kind of spell!"
The teacher is in his sixties, one of the few magicians in our town, and the only one in our town to have a magic instructor.
The teacher is talking about necromancy. This kind of magic almost never appears in life, and has always been a legendary horror. The explanation is a bit dull, and there don't seem to be many people in the class listening.
Necromancy that summons and summons the undead is indeed terrifying black magic.
"It's the 'Blood Killing Array'...... It's ancient curse magic, and as she says, she's indeed the 'Evil Spirit' of one of the 'Avengers' post-ghosts. She is the only one who still has such a vicious black magic ......" When I was watching TV on the road just now, Mr. He Yanfang, the respected white sage, mentioned this kind of spell.
Judging by the fact that the video was stopped, this kind of spell must be very terrifying. I can't imagine that the people of Middle-earth have suffered this catastrophe.
Middle-earth ...... Disaster......
- Did you hear that the hurricane of the Stormy Ocean annihilated an entire fleet......
- Alas, what is that! Towns along the eastern seashore were slaughtered overnight! And pushing west!
- Isn't it? Is it a monster attack?
- Who knows, all the people are dead...... I've heard about it......
- What did you hear?
- Something happened to the north, too......
The information available during this time is appalling...... Oops, Abel, listen to the class, don't think so much!
"A big war is inevitable, and I hope that everyone will accept this fact and be prepared to deal with it...... no, I still can't help but think of the words that imply disaster.
I'm scared, right?
It seems that what Sun Rin said is true......
A few months ago, my father brought back a boy as he had picked up me and Bivis before.
It was a very beautiful boy, he was about eleven years old, right? When I spoke to him, he would only stare at me with a sinister gaze that made me tremble when I remembered the countless deaths I had witnessed so many deaths. My father said that he had experienced the heart-wrenching pain of being separated before he was rescued.
His father introduced him as Sun Rin. At that time, his beautiful face was as solemn and lonely as a lone wolf walking in the wasteland.
I remember we all said comforting words to him at that time, and I took him to church to pray. I feel that the soul that is immersed in grief cannot be saved by others. Immerse yourself in grief and despair, and then you can only be swallowed by darkness. I told him that there was no revenge or comfort for his family, and he finally smiled softly after many days of silence, and that bright smile even surprised me, and sure enough, no one is naturally unsuitable for laughter.
"You're right. He responded, and from that day on, he never showed any more sadness.
To my great surprise, his talent in the field of magic was simply dizzying. However, just when I thought I would have one more talented family member from now on......
"I'm leaving. "I've been drafted and I'm going to war." ”
"Conscription?"
"Hmm. He looked at me with a smile, "Actually, I'm a bad person. ”
"Huh?"
My stunned expression probably made him more proud, and he nodded, his smile didn't show a bit seriousness: "From now on, my name is Ghost Mountain Dragonfly." ”
"Ghost Mountain ......"
"That's right, it's the Ghost Mountain clan of the Xuan World, and the henchmen of the Demon King of the Xuan World, the 'Twelve Apostles of the Mystery', were selected from the Ghost Mountain Monster Clan. I am an apostle's alternate. ”
"Are you...... Seriously?"
"That's right. My superiors told me to report to Zhongzhou. I will follow the instructions of the Allies, the 'Avengers'. ”
"Really?" Bivis wasn't surprised at all, probably because they were usually closer, and they were already aware of it.
"That's it. The Avengers are mainly responsible for the affairs of the Central and Western Continents, while our Xuan World Demon Army is in charge of the Eastern Continents. Dongzhou will soon suffer a catastrophe, so you have to be careful. He pulled out a black token and handed it to me, "Proof of the Twelve Apostles of the Mysteries." You take it, you'll be safer with it, thank you for this time. ”
The inky black crystal token is still in my pocket. I still don't understand why he gave me this kind of thing instead of his father.
But...... Is there really something terrible going to happen?
"Abel Rettan!" the teacher suddenly shouted, causing me to jump in fright, "You give me a lesson!
"Yes, I'm sorry......" was so bad that it was discovered......
"That's a bit of a story—" The teacher is going to start nagging again...... But his voice stopped abruptly.
I followed his horrified gaze and looked out the window.
Seabirds flutter into the sky in the distance...... Powerful and evil magic fluctuations suddenly slammed into my chest like a wave, knocking me to the ground!
Dizziness, nausea and vomiting...... This is...... What's wrong?
Another wave of invisible, strong fluctuations hit! This ...... Is it black magic?
"Could it be—" The teacher's face turned pale.
The new round of fluctuations became even stronger, and the crazy killing intent that was so thick that it almost condensed into solid shattered the glass, and then pressed against us in a volley!
The bones of the whole body were under an extraordinary pressure, and the internal organs were in sharp pain as if they were being twisted together...... We could only groan in pain.
"Light shield!" the teacher shouted, and I felt the pain in my body lessen.
"Kids, stay here, don't run around!" the teacher used the "Wind Soaring Enchantment" to fly out, "I'm going to check on the situation, no one should leave without an order!"
All that was left was a panicked uproar. I looked at Beavis, and he looked at me worriedly.
I gripped the Ink Token tightly. Did he, Sun Rin/Ghost Mountain Dragonfly, come true?
It's still sunny outside...... But the mournful cry of the birds, the frantic barking of the dogs, and the panicked screams of the people...... It's getting louder and louder, it's like a storm getting stronger and stronger!
"'Downwind Ears' Bivis, you usually brag about how great you are, now listen to what the headmaster is saying!" An anxious student broke the silence of the commotion.
Beavis whispered irritably, "It's not something like 'Downwind Ears,'" then turned around and took a deep breath: "O wind! Tell me the whispers of the wise!"
A new wave of disgusting waves of magic snapped in, but we did hear the anxious conversation between the headmaster and the teachers through the "Words of Force" casually chanted by Bivis.
The teachers just shouted together, and in the midst of countless shouts of "what's going on", "what should I do", and "find the mayor", we endured the impact of powerful magic and looked outside to see the situation.
The situation outside the academy was equally chaotic, with people shouting and shouting, and many people kneeling on the ground praying for the Lord's deliverance. The guards ran swiftly through with sonorous steps, and a small group rushed into the academy, not knowing what they were ordered to do.
“...... Someone has become a monster!" The frightening words finally appeared in the chaotic shouts of the teacher, and Bevis immediately stopped using the magic.
"I was dizzy...... It shouldn't have been eavesdropped in the first place!" the chatter erupted around again, and Beavis pulled his hair in regret in the growing panic.
But Bivis's remorse was completely unnecessary—soon the captain of the guard broke in.
"I've heard that your class is the strongest in magic," he ordered loudly without interjection, "Listen, now the town needs your strength to protect it, give me seven teams right away, and follow us to destroy the monsters!"
Screams and chatters filled the classroom, and everyone was bloodless—an emergency not seen in years in the peaceful and quiet of Narruff!
"I'll count three, one!" roared the chief, and everyone stumbled and stumbled in line.
"Follow me!" the chief grabbed one of his classmates and ran out, and we hurried to catch up.
- Town Road
Driven by the soldiers, we can see that low-level spells such as the Spear of Light, Flame Ball, and Wind Blade have exploded in the room with light and explosion......
“...... Zombies!" the shrill voices of my classmates almost stopped my heart from beating—
It was like being dizzy from the sun, and a figure was dizzy in the afternoon sun, shaking his body slightly, and moving towards the team!
"You're going to find out, aren't you?" the soldier in charge of commanding our students grabbed me, "Hurry up!"
"Moss, tell me how you feel, tell me where there is evil!" I chanted nervously, feeling a faint breath of magic.
The cold and cruel aura, this is - the malice of the dead!
"That's right, 'it' is-"
"Arrow of Fire, aim for the head!" Before I could finish speaking, the soldier had already given an order to a classmate majoring in fire.
“...... Understood!" The classmate trembled and drew his magic bow, and the fire bolt flew softly diagonally past the figure, exploding small red beams of fire on the road......
It's not good, everyone has never been in real combat...... The soldiers glanced at us with contempt and rushed forward in groups!
If you were a normal person, you would definitely run away in the face of so many opponents. But the zombies sped up and swung over!
As a rule of thumb, the soldiers almost immediately slashed at the zombie's head, and the battle ended immediately. In the face of this instantaneous action, Carl, a classmate next to him, suddenly rushed forward quickly.
"What is he doing......" a female classmate said in a tone of fear and disgust, "look at that kind of thing......"
"Grandpa!" Karl's cry froze us all.
...... That's right, I remember that his grandfather died last month......
"You kill him!" he yelled at the soldiers like crazy, "kill him——"
"Don't be stupid! He's already dead! 'It'' a zombie!" one of the soldiers yelled back and shoved him back violently.
"I said Carl, you-" Bivis patted him on the shoulder, trying to say something comforting and enlightening.
But—flung away, the bolt of fire struck the soldier in the left shoulder!
"You're crazy!" the soldiers knocked Carl to the ground, "That's a zombie!"
"Take him away!" a soldier told us, as someone carried away the remains of the zombie.
"Abel, you're the squad leader......" Bivis looked at me helplessly.
I nodded and walked over to Carl's side. He was lying face down, his shoulders shaking.
Are you crying?
"Carl ......"
"I know, squad leader......" he sobbed and whispered in response, "Grandpa he...... He said he didn't want to...... Don't want to die...... But, but ...... He doesn't eat people!"
"That's right, he's a kind man......" I looked at my classmates and soldiers running away, "no one would expect such a resurrection, would they?
I remembered the face of the "evil ghost" Wu Anya on TV. What is that little girl who is as beautiful as a doll using such a vicious technique?
"I ...... I'm going to ...... for grandpa I'm going to fight!" Karl cried and stood up.
"Well, for the sake of the peace of the living and the dignity of the deceased, we have to fight the creatures of darkness!" I nodded, "Let's follow!"
We ran as hard as we could, as if we were trying to shake off our anxieties.
I guess I'm also very afraid of death. If I die and have a soul, I will surely long for resurrection, and I will hope that I am just asleep, and one day I will be resurrected.
But the only way I can resurrect myself is to become a zombie who only knows how to kill...... If I were to be resurrected to eat Bivis, my father, and more......
Would I rather never wake up? I felt like I was going to cry, and I clenched my sword.
Bright lights and smoke burst out in front of us! Chaotic shouts accompanied by the clanging sound of battle, under the powerful slap of magic fluctuations, called for us to join.
Again meditating on the prayer in the church, we ran forward—
"Lord, grant me your boundless blessings. Your believers will fight for peace and justice, and if you can no longer protect my life, please grant me a dignified death!"

- Zhongzhou, a town
Like hell, piles of corpses became hills of high and low hills, and flowing blood flowed into springs and rivers, silently releasing the smell of death on the vast and intricate crimson mantra pattern.
Between the hills, a little girl dressed in a lilac hanfu danced as lightly as she danced.
Just as she couldn't see the blood, the girl's beautiful golden eyes were full of smiles. She held the yellowed skull in her little white hands, and she also watched it all quietly with empty eyes.
"These guys can easily die...... "The girl whispered lovingly in the ear of Calvary, "you see, I'm already strong! If I had that strength then, wouldn't our story have ended differently?, for you, I'm willing to do things that I couldn't have done...... I know I'm cruel, but as long as you can come back......"
"Exchange a million innocent deaths for a person's Su Sheng......" Another calm female voice sounded, and the gorgeous girl in the blood-colored Luo skirt seemed to be transformed from a pool of blood.
The little girl turned to the side of her delicate and delicate face, her golden eyes dyed with a pool of blood and a red dress as a poignant dusk: "'Dazzling Rakshasa', if you are replaced, you will be the same." ”
The glamorous bird demon who had just returned from the battle in the original world glanced at the corpse mountain, and the corners of her mouth hooked up like nothing: "Yes...... I will, and we will do the same with Kuang Zhengtuan. If those nine adults can be resurrected, we are willing to give everything. ”
"Are the Nine Evil Kings who are disturbing Kyushu, China?" the little girl sneered, "We are different...... As long as he is alive, I will stop. If it's the Nine Great Demon Kings Su Sheng, will you return to Kyushu and have another monarch game that will destroy the lives of the people, right?"
Rakshasa laughed out loud as if he felt childish: "Do you think you can stop it, 'Evil Spirit' Wu Anya? Don't deceive yourself, you didn't slaughter against your will for love at all, maybe you had love as your original intention, but can you really be sure that you didn't do it because you liked it? You're a murderer, you're - like to kill!"
Wu Anya smiled faintly: "Say whatever you want." I curse your Nine Demon Kings to never be resurrected. ”
Rakshasa's gaze flashed with murderous intent.
"The use of the forbidden art of resurrection should make people feel endless joy. But they were cursed by everyone?" Wu Anya said coldly as provocatively, "A monster like the Nine Demon Kings has no resurrection value. ”
"It's funny, 'Demon'. Rakshasa's slender hand struck Anya as swiftly as an eagle's claw, but Anya inadvertently dodged away at the last moment, "'They were cursed by everyone'? Aren't you talking about it, the people of Dongzhou are cursing, aren't you the disaster you created by such endless zombies? Just admit your evil, even demons like me think you are disgustingly hypocritical!"
Wu Anya's golden eyes flashed like a dagger: "You are not qualified to judge my business!"
"Hey, please don't do it, two adults!" The heralds who had just complained about the blood, the demon car "Ning Ye" and Ze Jing "Qingji", saw this situation and hurriedly plunged into the fight.
"Everyone is an ally, peace is precious!" Qingji persuaded a little frightened.
"What's going on over there in Dongzhou? Rakshasa sneered and glanced at Anya and asked.
"The 'resurrection of the dead' plan is going well, and Dongzhou is already in chaos. Qing Ji nodded repeatedly, "Lord Evil Spirit, your great strength is truly amazing. Except for the tricky Future City, everything is going very well now! I believe that fear and pain and helplessness will envelop the whole Dongzhou, providing us with a steady stream of high-quality energy. ”
"That's good. Wu Anya snorted lightly, "But didn't such a powerful monster fail to entangle He Yanfang? It's already one of the strongest synthetic beasts......
"He Yanfang is not such an easy opponent to deal with. Let's think about how to break down so many strong opponents separately. Rakshasa said unexpectedly, "I fought with the 'Tyrannical Eagle' Ji Chongming not long ago, I see that the thousand-year-old peace has not let the will of the academy wear away, and I believe that the Nine Emperors will still be the monster of the past." ”
"With the Nine Evil Kings who died of you, they were called the most active evil demon kings in Kyushu at that time, the 'Eighteen Kings of Kyushu', right? Of course, our Empress has been prepared for a long time, and she will never repeat the mistakes of Concubine Xuanshirou. Wu Anya sneered, "Don't worry, you also know the methods of the empress, right?"
Rakshasa was noncommittal, just silent in the face of the mountain of corpses.
"The guy who was now captured by Petra's imps," Wu Anya asked as if she suddenly remembered, "what kind of character is it?"
"No talent at all, just an ordinary imp. Qingji said with a wry smile of pity.
"Yes, the 'Colorless Demon Boy' is really incomprehensible......" Anya muttered to herself with a bored expression, and then glanced at Rakshasa again, "You go to Empers to spy on the Demon King, just let me come here." ”
Qingji nodded: "We should also remind those little guys not to let that 'colorless general' slip away, after all, the Heavenly Punisher has come to obstruct us......"

- Middle-earth, somewhere
"We're almost in Ceperos. Harden told Cedar.
"What are you going to do with me?" asked Cedar helplessly.
Harden narrowed his eyes and gave him a sinister smile: "Slaughtered you in front of the rebels......"
"Liar, you actually want to turn against the water, and I am a gift to the Heavenly Punisher and the Passage Courtyard. Cedar smiled calmly, "Ivan told me. ”
"Ivan, you big mouth!" Harden glared at Ivan unhappily.
"What's wrong with that, understanding can bring us closer. Ivan said indifferently.
"I'm not interested in being close to idiots. Harden said coldly.
"Leave him alone. Ivan said to Cedar, "Cedar, believe that we are righteous friends, and we will do our best to watch over you." But you also have to pretend that we will hide it from Kuang Zhengtuan. ”
"Understood!" Cedar was more willing to cooperate knowing that she was safe, "but I still want to know why you want to join the Heavenly Punisher." Can you tell me now?"
Ivan immediately patted Harden on the shoulder and happily pointed at Harden's face: "Look!
"Shut up idiot!" Harden angrily slapped his hand away, "I don't admit it!"
"Really?" asked Cedar.
"It's true! This damn tsundere refuses to- whoa, it hurts! What if you beat my smart head stupidly!" Ivan hid beside Atay with his head in his hands.
"Cedar, I said that our country was destroyed by the post-ghost La Niña," Ataya said flatly, putting her arm around Ivan's shoulder, "Do you think we are really willing to die for the Empress of the Sky anymore?"
"My hometown was slaughtered by order of the Empress of the Firmament, and my mother was also killed by Honghime. I will definitely repay this revenge. "Harden's side face has a heavy shadow.
Selena also looked awe-inspiring: "The object of my revenge is the Black Water General of the Xuan World, but it is also the Empress of the Firmament who is driving all this. ”
“...... Sorry for mentioning your sadness...... Cedar didn't know how to comfort them.
Ivan smiled brightly, "We're fine! Let's talk about something else, right?"
"Good. Cedar didn't want to continue on such a heavy topic.
"Our teacher, Petra Palenset, is the child of the Empress and the Blue World Demon King Destroying Star Monarch, and is quite noble in terms of blood," Ivan said, "but the teacher didn't want to live the life of the Demon Clan, so contrary to the Empress Empress's expectations, the teacher went to the Tang Dynasty at that time to learn art and rebelled against her." ”
"Remarkable. Cedar thought of the great discomfort of crossing the border, and couldn't help but admire Petra's courage.
"At that time, the Tang Dynasty had eighteen of the most active evil demon kings who were collectively known as the 'Eighteen Kings of Kyushu', and nine of them eventually changed their ways, which was the Nine Emperors of the Demon King Capital. And the remaining nine eventually died," Ataya continued, "and that is the nine leaders that Kuang Zhengtuan wants to resurrect, and Petra's master is one of them, Teng Ji, the 'Coffin Dancer'. ”
"Can it be resurrected?" asked Cedar in shock.
"Who knows, but if it's resurrected, it's going to be a big problem. Ivan made an exaggerated expression.
"How good are they?
"Of course!" Ivan nodded sharply, and then began to recite the old name, "the pinnacle of plant manipulators - 'the evil lord of plants', the unavoidable and unprecedented master of demolition - 'the leader of the crush', the nemesis of metal instruments and the powerful hand of instant disarming - 'the swinger', the exemplar of the heraldic master of the spell array and the expert of raids - 'the zhang of fear', the genius of illusion and the trickster of tricks - 'the ghost god boy', the king of air combat who wields universal thaumaturgy and the poetic manipulator of speech-' The Shadow of Soul Palpitations', the glamorous and dazzling sword dancer who looks like a dragon - 'Coffin Dancing Queen', the beautiful collection of water spells - 'Deep Snow Wandering Girl', and the deadly and poisonous giant killer and the overlord of the Lingnan Yu clan - 'Inch Broken Feather'. The resurrection of any of these nine deceased will inevitably cause a stir. ”
"The title sounds powerful......" Cedar was surprised, the youkai from China seemed to be much stronger than he had imagined.
Ataya nodded: "It's really powerful, and besides, their death is not because they lost to the temple and the gods, so if possible, they will curse the temple day and night to win without a fight." Ataya said casually, "That's why Kuang Zhengtuan will not hesitate to work for the Empress of the Firmament, and the Meridian will do everything to stop them." If these nine demon kings can be resurrected, I don't think the Heavenly Punisher will sit idly by—Harden, I remember that your adoptive father, Mr. He, happens to be the one who is related, right? ”

- Dongzhou, Future City
"It's over for now. Standing on top of the cyan broken jade, like stepping on a jade mountain that stretches throughout the city, He Yanfang, the "Evil Rider", sighed in distress.
"It's very similar to him......" The charm covering his whole body was hunting in the autumn wind, and the thin figure stood stiffly and straight, staring at the broken cyan jade with cloudy red eyes, and the talisman boy named "Broken Spirit" said vaguely.
"Well, maybe it's that guy Zhang," He Yanfang smiled bitterly, "Fortunately, this level is still not complete, and it is not awake yet." ”
“...... Not him...... bar. "Shattered" looked like he was missing three souls, but even so, there was a hint of disappointment in his vague words.
"It's not clear," He Yanfang glanced at him, then stared at the beautiful cyan jade, "So longing for Su Sheng...... I really don't want it to be an enemy. ”
"Indeed, it feels annoying. ”
"Mr. He, there are a large number of zombies all over Dongzhou!" "As they sighed, another Heavenly Punisher stationed in Future City hurriedly reported.
The shadow on He Yanfang's face became even thicker: "Everywhere, if you win this guy, do you still want to be tripped here?"
"What are you going to do?" "Broken" asked him slowly.
"There's no way, you can't ignore the people of Dongzhou, come on. He Yanfang smiled helplessly, "Let's go, let's kill Dongzhou!"

Under the same gentle clear sky, the web of fate is entangled, pulling all life into the feast.
Is this the purpose of the Demon King to devour life and revive the ancient monsters?
The living and the dead are now pursuing life with all their might. Watching the endless slaughter in search of life, the Demon King of Doom on the throne of the Dome probably laughed heartily in the hearty pleasure of the feast......
