Chapter 547: Mysterious Mural

"What evil thing?"

Ge Wei was taken aback, the ugly corpse that was completely dead actually burst out of the abdomen like an octopus, and what was even more strange was that there were countless corpse worms swimming in the ink!

The corpse insect swam extremely fast, winding its way across the stone face, and in the blink of an eye, it was at Ge Wei's feet.

How could Ge Wei let such a disgusting thing crawl onto his feet, and without thinking about it, a cloud of purple light exploded on his body.

"Arcane Shockwave!"

A blastwave of purple energy roared and vibrated out. In an instant, all the close and non-close corpse insects were swept away.

Patches of "squeaks" squeaked and squeaked, and all the corpses were reduced to ashes in the misty purple arcane energy.

Even the corpse parts on the ground could not be avoided, and the shockwave that erupted from Ge Wei swept to the other end of the passage. The inside of Ge Wei's passage also suddenly shone for a moment, and then it became fragmented and almost collapsed.

Ge Wei hurriedly strengthened the space, and a series of spells were played, which stabilized the crumbling passage and avoided the consequences of the entire skeleton army being buried.

"His grandmother's, the place is too small, this kind of range magic can't be used. Ge Wei muttered dissatisfiedly. But even if the dungeon collapsed, he wouldn't allow that disgusting thing to crawl all over him.

Although he is an undead creature, Ge Wei is still a human at heart after all.

Now I finally know what happened to several pathfinder skeleton teams, and it was actually this evil undead creature. Ge Wei has seen a lot of undead creatures, but it is the first time that such a disgusting breed has been seen.

After a moment of silence, Ge Wei reorganized the skeleton army. Previously preceded by a skeleton shield soldier. A skeleton archer and a skeleton warrior. It was raised to 10 each.

A pathfinder team of 30 mutated skeletons is back on its way. Divided into hundreds of teams, each exploring their way in different directions.

"Since there are such evil corpses, there will definitely not be only one or two. And then again. Can't beat three dozen or one, can't beat thirty dozen and one? Lao Tzu just has a lot of people!"

Ge Wei re-entered the road and continued to advance with the remaining more than 10,000 troops.

The passage was narrow, and the army could not be deployed. Ge Wei used this method of scattering seeds on all sides to quickly stretch his tentacles in all directions.

During this period, the road under my feet has more than once reached a dead end. The whole dungeon is like a labyrinth. Ge Wei had to order the army to turn back and follow the other proven paths.

As he expected. Along the way, almost every pathfinder team encountered that ugly, fat evil corpse again. Including large troops, it has also been encountered more than once.

Ge Wei learned to be obedient this time, no longer using arcane magic, but using fire spells. Burn it with fire, and you won't miss out on corpse worms.

Fire-based spells work very well. A dragon can kill the evil corpse by rushing out, and by the way, the dragon tail flame will burn all the corpse insects that burst into charcoal. At the same time, fire magic will not damage the stone road.

Hundreds of pathfinder teams are in a bitter battle. Against higher-level undead creatures, the Mutant Skeletons have a numerical advantage to win. But the losses were also significant. Ge Wei immediately sent troops from the brigade to supplement it. Have no less than 30 skeletons per pathfinder team.

In this way, Ge Wei's tentacles went all the way forward. Stretch out, poke out.

Finally, without much effort, Ge Wei walked out of this seemingly endless labyrinthine passage. Entered a wide area.

Looking at the suddenly enlightened scene in front of him, Ge Wei was in a good mood and immediately let the army drive in. Spacious stone interior. Accommodating thousands of people is not too crowded. Illuminated by more than a dozen balls of light flying around, Ge Wei could clearly see every detail in the stone room.

In the middle of the stone chamber. It is an architecturally ornate sarcophagus, and the sarcophagus is built high. Below are countless flights of stairs. In the sarcophagus, Ge Wei deliberately sensed, but failed to sense the breath of the undead creature.

Ge Wei sent a team of skeletons to probe and open the sarcophagus, only to find that it was empty and empty. But it was an empty coffin.

"Strange, an empty coffin, just for decoration?"

Ge Wei muttered to himself, and soon his attention shifted from the empty coffin to other places.

Around this spacious stone room, Ge Wei clearly saw that there were murals painted on the walls around him.

In fact, the first step he walked into this stone room, he saw these murals. Because these murals are impressively colorful, the colors are bright, I don't know what they were painted from, they are as bright as if they were just painted yesterday.

Although he doesn't understand history, Ge Wei still knows that the appearance of murals often carries the meaning of recording events.

The creator of the mural wanted to borrow this form of picture to describe some stories to future generations.

Ge Wei was quickly drawn to the story depicted in the mural.

At this time, he had determined that this underground palace would never be built by undead creatures. It once belonged to a glorious civilization. The story depicted in the mural also confirmed this to him.

The first mural Ge Wei saw depicted magnificent buildings, similar in style to the European medieval Gothic style, very similar to the churches and bell and drum towers outside. It is these buildings that should be painted.

In addition to the building, there are people. The human inhabitants of the city and the various lives of the residents are shown on this mural one by one.

All kinds of details on the picture show Ge Wei what a prosperous civilization this is.

Later, on the second mural, in addition to the original building, people are depicted in the center of the picture.

The man was tall, mounted on a horse, and was armoured. The people around him looked very respectful to him, and they all bent down to salute.

The third mural still depicts this person. The scene of the picture is replaced by an endless plain battlefield.

On the battlefield, tens of thousands of people on both sides lined up, and in the center of the picture was a leading general, judging from the armor and clothing, Ge Wei felt that it was the person on the second picture.

The mural depicts a major war. As a result of the war, the army under the command of this man was depicted and slaughtered to the outside world, winning the final victory.

Immediately after a painting next to it, the scene changed again. Re-emerge in the bustling city. In the center of the picture, the leader of the army changes into gorgeous robes. Headband with a crown. At the foot of the surrounding are all the people who worship.

Next, on the murals. It's all about the king's army, fighting on all sides. Conquered one city-state after another, harvesting territory after territory.

In the end, all the territories were joined together, and this king ascended the throne as emperor in the midst of all the people's attention, and looked down on the world.

Under the reign of this emperor, the city-state became more and more prosperous, and more and more people appeared. The scene of a thriving empire is vividly portrayed by the painter.

Just when Ge Wei thought, the story ended here. This is a story that describes the unification of the continent by a hero who became emperor through continuous conquests, but at this time it was found that there were several murals behind.

When Ge Wei saw the murals behind, the whole person was slightly stunned.

The first picture, the landscape that appears on the picture, is still the most prosperous imperial city. But for the first time, dark tones appeared. Some weird patterns appeared.

Strange magic circles, altars under construction. Crowds of civilians being driven onto the altar......

At the top of the picture, there is an emperor looking down on all beings, and there is an extra person next to the emperor, a man with a rickety figure in a black robe. in the picture. The black-robed man was offering something to the emperor, a ...... Bloody heart!

The entire mural features a lot of dark tones. Large chunks of black, shrouded in the sky. It makes the whole painting look particularly depressing.

The second. The sacrifice continued, and darkness covered the earth. The Emperor is ordering the commoners to build something. It was an altar that had never been seen before. A high altar made of black stones.

Teams of artisans were slaughtered on the altar. Bright red paint representing blood was painted all over the altar. In the dark clouds, a demonic face with a hideous smile loomed among the clouds.

The black-robed man was still standing beside the Emperor, pointing at the heavenly demon and talking to the Emperor.

Seeing this Ge Wei suddenly, this emperor wants to pursue eternal life!

The black-robed man told the emperor that in order to gain eternal life, to inform the land forever, he had to sacrifice his life to the demons.

In this way, the emperor gave the blood of countless innocent people to the demons. The emperor received eternal life, but ...... The emperor was likewise given ...... Curse!

On the next mural, it's dark. There is only one scene on the screen: the emperor, who has been tormented by endless pain all day, chooses to end his own life. However, the emperor found that he could not die. He's become undead!

Next, there were no more stars in the sky, and no sunlight was visible. Darkness covers the land, and the empire is turned upside down and becomes a paradise for the undead. Undead creatures began to appear and began to run rampant across the land. The Emperor led his army of the undead, wiped out one city-state after another, slaughtered all the people in the city-state, and the Emperor personally ended his empire, and at the same time established a new empire - the Empire of the Undead.

Finally, the penultimate painting. I don't know how long it has been, maybe it's a year, maybe it's three or five years, maybe it's hundreds of years. Darkness and death continue to envelop the world. Finally, one day, in the cloudy sky, the door opened, and a thousand golden lights appeared from the door.

A radiant figure descended, and behind it, a pair of golden flame wings of the living.

"It's ...... Angels?"

This glorious image made Ge Wei think of the angel in mythology and legend at once.

That's right, it's an angel, an angel of battle.

Its mission is to destroy this filthy, undead world.

The Holy Flame swept across the land, and countless undead creatures completely melted in the golden Holy Flame. The angel spread its radiant wings and held an equally glorious holy sword to face the black-robed Immortal Emperor and easily knock him down.

The last painting. The golden flame shrouded the land, and there were many days and nights. Everything is purified, everything is destroyed. Eventually, when the flames dissipated, the land was barren, and the sky remained dark. There is nothing between heaven and earth anymore. This world ...... Completely dead.

The murals around the stone chamber came to an abrupt end. Ge Wei did not see the progress of the subsequent story. The mural does not depict what the angel did or what happened to the world. There is no mention of whether the immortal emperor died in the end.

According to Ge Wei's guess, the immortal emperor should not have died in the end. Perhaps, this underground palace is the masterpiece of the immortal emperor. So, could the sleeping black knight lord be the emperor? The mural also does not mention the end of the black-robed man who mysteriously appeared. Could it be the Lich Darker Angmar the Black Robe?

Of course, these were just his guesses. If you want to figure out how the story will develop in the future, you can only move on. Perhaps there will be more murals to answer this question.

And at this moment, Ge Wei's heart suddenly moved.

Discovered by a pathfinder team, the team came to the end of the corridor, but at that end it was not a dead end, but a closed stone door.

Ge Wei immediately set off in that direction. Perhaps behind the stone gate, there was the answer he needed.

"Or perhaps, Lord of the Black Knight, right there. ”
