Chapter 544: The New City of Pain
When Edward and Adela used teleportation to make their way to the City of Pain again, they were both stunned. www.biquge.info if it weren't for the Holy Light Emblem that appeared in front of them, Edward would have even thought that his teleportation spell was wrong.
The City of Pain, which was filled with darkness and corruption, was no longer what it used to be, and although the dark canopy that filled the sky was still there, the color had evolved from a thick inky black to an ordinary dark cloud. Sunlight shone through these dark clouds and shone on a few green plants, giving some life to the ruined City of Pain.
In the City of Pain, the dragon lich was prostrate next to the Holy Light Emblem, and although the huge skeleton was still pitch black, if you looked closely, you would find that in the cracks of its skeleton, there was a trace of silver-gray brilliance wandering.
Moreover, Edward, who is very sensitive to souls, can also feel a faint soul covering the body of this dragon lich.
The dragon lich emerged from Edward, and raised its huge dragon head, looking at Edward's eyes full of respect and pleasure. Yes, both Edward and Adela could tell from its eyes that the dragon lich had feelings and thoughts of its own.
"Looks like Sante is doing a good job?" said Edward with a smile as he nodded at the dragon lich.
"That's right, Your Majesty, look around, those zombies can't be considered undead anymore. Adela focused her attention on the zombies that were beginning to gather around her. From these zombies, Adela could clearly feel their emotions - curiosity and wariness, but without the tyranny of the living that the undead possess. Moreover, their zombie bodies are no longer the same as before, and their movements are very normal, just like gray-skinned humans.
"You...... Who are you?" As Edward and Adela looked at the zombies with relief, one of them, a zombie in armor, surrounded them with a large number of zombies, and even spoke a human language! Although his lingua franca was a bit off-standard, Edward could still hear it.
"I'm Edward Lee, and I'll have Shante come out to see me. Edward looked at the zombie and said.
"Your Majesty Edward!" As soon as he heard his name, the zombie captain immediately knelt down, and there was a cry in his voice, "You are Your Majesty Edward, who gave us a second life!"
When he shouted like this, all the zombies around him knelt down in unison, and the cry shook the sky for a while!
"What the hell is going on?" Edward himself was a little dazed by this situation.
"Your Majesty, you are finally here. At this moment, ten silver-gray bats flew out of the castle and landed in front of Edward, turning into human form with a thud, and half-kneeling in front of Edward.
"Are you...... Shante?" Edward said suspiciously, looking at the middle-aged nobleman who was at the head of him.
"Yes, I am your most loyal subordinate, my great majesty. At this point, Shante was completely different from his original vampire appearance, he had silky brown hair, eyes, mouth, teeth, and ears that were indistinguishable from humans, except for silver-gray skin to indicate that he was not a human.
Shanter looked excited, and after obtaining Edward's permission, the former vampire stood up and said respectfully, "You have given a second life to all the undead in our Pain City, and we are here to thank you from the bottom of our hearts and swear allegiance to you!"
"Shante, your research has succeeded?" Edward laughed.
"It's more than a success. Shante laughed and raised his hands and said, "Ever since you gave me the path of the Dark Light, I have found this technique to be very suitable for our undead clan. I only need a slight change to purify the spirits' aura and return them to their original bodies. ”
"Look at the zombies around you - no, you should be the ones to be resurrected now, they were either ghosts or zombies before, and now, they are all resurrected people with their own minds. ”
"We are now able to move in the warm sun, laugh and cry, eat delicious food, and hug our loved ones and loved ones. ”
"We no longer need to live in cold and misery, hopeless like walking corpses, and we no longer need to endure endless bloodlust and suppress our emotions in hunger and thirst. ”
"All this is given to us by you, and you have no way to repay us for your kindness, but to be loyal to you with our loyalty. ”
Shante's praise was echoed by all those who were to be resurrected, and they cheered loudly with tears in their eyes, sincerely thanking Edward for giving them a second life. The dragon lich raised his head as well, and let out a high, joyful dragon groan.
Edward was also infected by the cheers of the awaiting resurrection, and patted Shante on the shoulder with a smile and said, "I am glad that you can come to the world of the living again, in this world, there are many souls who are bound by evil necromancy like you before. Our mission is to dispel these evils and free all the spirits of the dead who have fallen into the abyss of suffering. ”
"All awaiting resurrections of the City of Pain, welcome to the Holy Ondore Order!"
Edward's declaration caused the entire City of Pain to resound with an earth-shattering cheer.
............
After a period of celebration in the squares of the City of Pain, Shante led Edward into the city's castle. Shanter was clearly a brilliant city lord, and since he became the one to be resurrected, Edward was pleased with his transformation of the City of Pain.
The castle, which was once full of cobwebs and dilapidated furniture, was cleaned up, green plants were planted around the city, and the bones and graveyards that were once everywhere were cleaned up - the bones of the dead were neatly stacked in the "Resurrection Cellar" in the north of the city, where the purified spirits were gathered to be transformed into resurrected.
If a human enters the City of Pain at this time, he will not feel that it is a city of the dead at all.
Edward was in the council chamber to learn more about Shanter's research on the Dark Light. In Shante's words, the Dark Light is a type of Light that is suitable for dark creatures. Darkness is different from evil, and dark creatures are only due to their natural life and darkness, which causes their slightly cruel habits. But not all dark creatures are cruel, under the influence of the dark light, the remaining goodness in their hearts will be infinitely magnified, and finally the good and evil in their hearts will be completely reversed, and they will become hopeful for the future to be resurrected.
Of course, the dark light is not omnipotent, and the transformation rate of the resurrected is not high, and it also requires the combination of the Yin Soul and the Death Body, which is relatively slow to transform. There are not many people waiting to be resurrected in the City of Pain now, only about three hundred people. However, since the location of the City of Pain was originally a battlefield, and these Yin Spirits were originally warriors, they were able to form an army of more than a hundred among these three hundred people.
"So Shante, do you think the Dark Light can be applied to underground creatures?" asked Edward.
"Absolutely. Shante laughed, "Many of the ghosts of our City of Pain are the ghosts of the underground cave people, which was originally the battlefield between Negan and Erathia. ”
