Chapter Seventy-Nine: The Tide of the Undead
Elemental girl Sang Liuying, Thunder Sword Saint Tang Leiguang, son of reincarnation first met plus white phoenix Cai Caijuan. The first to come back was the first meeting, then Tang Leiguang, then the pale Zisang Liuying, and the last one was Cai Caijuan, who was also pale and looked overdrawn.
Tang Leiguang frowned, and said in a deep voice: "The seventh order is still too strong, entering the seventh order is considered a high level, unless I reach the sixth order, the front is really unstoppable." ”
Chu Yu nodded and said, "If it weren't for those thirty fifth-order people, it would be better, and we should still have a chance to besiege a seventh-order." This time it's okay, well-prepared, and finally passed the third level. ”
"Hey, they're back first." Cai Caijuan's beautiful eyes flowed, and at a glance, she saw Long Dangdang and Ling Menglu who fell to the ground, as well as Long Kongkong who was standing aside and covering his eyes.
She couldn't help but be a little surprised: "Since Monroe has been with them, don't you want the image of this goddess?" ”
Zisang Liuying also subconsciously looked over there, seeing Ling Monroe and them returning first this time, she couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief slightly, this time, did she finally win? The week of penance and tactical study was not in vain.
"Let's go over and see what's going on with Monroe." Cai Caijuan said as she took the initiative to run over.
Ling Menglu's face was as pale as paper, she looked very bad, and her whole person fell into Long Dangdang's arms. And Long Dangdang's body was still twitching, and every twitch of the muscles on his body caused Ling Menglu in his arms to tremble.
"What are you doing here? How did it all come to this? Cai Caijuan asked Long Kongkong curiously.
Long Kongkong smiled and said, "Confidential, confidential." Are you trying to spy on the military? ”
"Fourth-order little brother, quite arrogant?" Cai Caijuan crossed her hands on her hips and glared at him.
Long Kongkong raised his hand and compared it from the top of her head, "Who is smaller? You stand up and talk to me. ”
"Ahhh You actually sarcastically mocked me for being short, I hate this the most, I fight with you! Cai Caijuan roared angrily, subconsciously wanting to summon her natal summoning beast.
Hey, I didn't get in touch! Oh, the mental power is overdepleted, and the summoned beasts are also overdepleted. Well, forget it.
"You wait for me!" Cai Caijuan viciously compared her small fists to him.
"Hey, you're standing! I thought you were sitting on the ground just now. Long Kongkong said with a grin.
"Don't go too far!" Cai Caijuan said viciously.
"Who have I been afraid of? Revenge at any time. Long Kongkong puffed up his chest, looking righteous and awe-inspiring.
"You...... If...... Itchy skin...... You're ...... Straight ......," Long Dangdang said tremblingly.
Cai Caijuan looked at Long Kongkong, and then looked at Long Dangdang, "Who are you?" ”
At this moment, a pale golden light fell, followed by a blue light. They were all shrouded in Ling Menglu and Long Dangdang at the same time.
Zisang Liuying didn't know when she had come to Cai Caijuan's side, and the two healing spells were released by her.
Long Kongkong looked at Zisang Liuying with some surprise, "Are you considered an enemy?" ”
Zisang Liuying didn't even look at him, and said to Long Dangdang: "Do you need help?" ”
Long Dangdang had already recovered a little at this time, stood up with his cousin in his arms, and said, "Thank you, we should be fine, it's just a little overdraft." ”
Zisang Liuying opened her mouth and wanted to ask something, but she didn't ask after all, she just nodded to him and turned to leave.
Cai Caijuan glared at Long Kongkong viciously, and then followed.
The junior students are actually watching their side, from the assessment to the actual combat training, it is obvious that these two groups of students have become obvious competitors, and there is a bit of a taste of you singing and me appearing.
When Ling Menglu woke up, it was already afternoon, and when she woke up, she found herself lying on the sofa in the dormitory, her eyes were still a little blurred at this time, looking at the ceiling, her eyes were a little dull.
"Yo, my cousin is awake!" The sound of the dragon's empty air came.
"Hmm." Ling Menglu replied lazily.
Long Dangdang and Long Kongkong came to her side together, "Are you okay?" Long Dangdang asked.
Ling Menglu shook her head and muttered, "I'm also the one who died once." ”
Long Kongkong said heartlessly: "Aren't we all dead every time?" Just get used to it. ”
Long Dangdang glared at him and said, "You can't get used to it, the simulated world is the simulated world, if you get used to the death inside." When you are really in danger in the real world, you will lose your fear of death. ”
"Brother, you don't have to teach me this, don't forget who my teacher is. Anyway, they won't come after two weeks, and they didn't say what they were going to do. ”
Ling Menglu sat up from the sofa and said, "There must be some important task." Otherwise, there would be no ninth-order powerhouse. ”
Long Dangdang said: "Cousin, you said before that our world is not as peaceful as it seems on the surface. There is also the Spiritual Furnace Heavenly Election Ceremony, and even the Wisdom Spiritual Furnace has chosen to be dispatched, what happened? ”
Listening to his question, the confusion in Ling Menglu's eyes gradually disappeared, and she fell into a short silence.
"West, there's a problem in the west." She finally spoke up.
"What's going on in the west?" Long Dangdang frowned.
Ling Menglu said, "Have you ever heard of a corpse fraud?" ”
Long Dangdang was stunned, "Fraudulent corpse? What is that? ”
Long Kongkong pouted and said, "Stupid, the corpse is the corpse that is dead." ”
Long Dangdang ignored him, just looked at Ling Menglu, Ling Menglu frowned and said, "That's pretty much what it means." In the west, especially in the coastal areas, there have been cases of graveyard scarcity in some villages since about a few decades ago. Corpses crawl out of graves, zombies or skeletons, and they attack livestock and humans. And it is not afraid of death, and it is even difficult to kill. Spread the plague. This has resulted in a number of mass deaths. ”
Long Dangdang was surprised and said, "Why haven't we heard about it at all?" ”
Ling Monroe said: "This is a strict federal order to block the news to avoid panic among the people. The church also sent someone to clear it. However, the situation is more serious than expected. Those beings who have come back from the dead are not dark creatures like the demons in the past, they are not even afraid of light magic, and they can move during the day. The vitality is extremely tenacious, and a powerful existence is gradually born. The most terrifying thing is that some of the professionals who have been buried and dead for many years have been inexplicably resurrected, and the resurrected ones are also strong among those undead creatures, even more powerful than they were alive. ”
Long Kongkong couldn't help but say, "That's not as strong as the Holy Hall." Isn't it all over when it's all gone? ”
Ling Mengroe nodded and said, "At the beginning, the Holy Hall also thought the same way, and at the same time, it did so. Kill all these undead creatures that appear. It was indeed calmed down for a while, just when everyone thought it was an accident, about half a year later. There were undead creatures again, and this time there were more places, at least a dozen villages appeared, causing hundreds of casualties, and even several villages became dead lands. Those villagers who die will also be transformed into undead creatures. This time, the federal government and the Templars took it very seriously, and immediately sent an investigation team and strong men to investigate the matter. Strangely, however, the undead creatures have disappeared once again. It's like it never happened. Until a year later......"
Speaking of this, she paused, then took a deep breath, "A year later, the undead creatures reappeared, and this time when they reappeared, even undead creatures other than zombies and skeletons appeared, and they also hit our city for the first time. Suddenly, a small city was breached through the walls......"
Long Dangdang said in a deep voice, "Didn't the Holy Hall find the reason in the previous investigation? ”
Ling Monroe said, "I probed carefully, but the undead creatures disappeared very completely during that time. The Templar powerhouse in charge of the investigation even dug up some of the graves to inspect them, and there was no sign of anything wrong. And that siege also made the entire federation completely vigilant, and deployed troops in the area where the undead broke out to be ready to respond at any time. And after that siege was destroyed, the undead creatures were silent for another eight months, and there was no pattern to speak of. And when they reappeared, they appeared in a wider area as if they had consciously avoided the blockade of the Federation, causing great damage again. The most terrifying thing is that there are undead creatures in a medium-sized city, and the temple cemetery in this city has been invaded, and the bones of more than a thousand professionals have turned into undead, including many professionals above the seventh order. The building was devastated. ”
Long Dangdang frowned, "You mean, these undead creatures are intelligent, they can even evade the pursuit of the Templars, and they can also find the Templar Cemetery to resurrect the Profession to strengthen themselves. ”
"Yes! Moreover, undead creatures are very difficult to kill, even if they crush their heads, they still have a certain amount of combat power. They are destroyed unless the entire body is completely shattered. Until now, the Templars have not found out where these undead creatures came from. They came unusually suddenly, as if they had come out of nowhere. It occurs almost every few months, and at different times, at most years, with no pattern at all. At present, about a dozen cities in the west of the mainland are already under surveillance, and all the churches and cemeteries are under strict surveillance, which is why there is a shortage of manpower. Your teacher is gone, and you're probably going to the west. ”
"In the past two years, the frequency of undead creatures has become higher and higher, and the overall coverage and combat effectiveness have become stronger and stronger. More and more undead creatures are emerging. Since we can't find the source, the Federation has now regarded the problems caused by these undead creatures as the biggest crisis that our human race has encountered since the demons. Tens of thousands of people have already died as a result of attacks by undead creatures. The federal government named the event of the appearance of these undead creatures the Undead Tide. The Templar began to reorganize the Demon Hunting Order, also in response to the investigation of the Undead Tide Event and the killing of the undead. ”
Long Dangdang and Long Kongkong glanced at each other, their eyes were full of shock, you know, before today, even if their father was the deputy hall master of the Tenglong City Priest's Branch, they had not received any news about the undead tide. In fact, tens of thousands of people have died in the disaster. It's no wonder that the Nine Great Wise Men of the Spirit Furnace Academy chose to restart, giving them the opportunity to fuse the Wisdom Spirit Furnace.
"This is not an accident. We discussed this with the Templars. From the location and way of the undead creatures, and the obvious intelligent deployment, it can be seen that this is planned behind the scenes. It is to cause the destruction of living beings. Yu Tong's voice came, and she turned into light and shadow and drilled out from Long Kongkong's chest.
Long Dangdang said: "In other words, if you want to completely solve the problem, you must find out who is behind the scenes?" The Templar now has no clues. ”
The illusory light and shadow transformed by Yu Tong bowed slightly, and said, "That's right." I also asked Canghai seniors about this, and Canghai seniors said that in the history of the Holy Demon Continent, similar things had actually happened. That time was shorter, but it was even more violent, almost destroying the entire continent with it. ”
The white halo was used, and the moonlight Canghai Spirit Furnace drilled out of Long Dangdang's chest, and Canghai's voice also sounded, "Yes." That catastrophe is known as the Scourge of the Dead. It is a catastrophe brought about by the cultivation of a human being who has been greatly wronged and stimulated to become a necromancer. This undead tide is different from the undead scourge in some ways, but it is very similar in some places. The difference is that the former necromancer appeared stronger and stronger, but he did not attack ordinary people, but only against the country that had caused him great damage, and in a short period of time, he gathered an extremely terrifying army of undead and destroyed that country. This time, however, the appearance of the undead creatures was a little scattered, not like the work of a necromancer, who had not appeared in many years. But there is a similarity in that in both disasters, the undead creatures are not afraid of light. Normally, light is inherently restrained from undead creatures, and undead creatures should not even be able to survive during the day. ”
"Then why is there a situation where you are not afraid of light?" This time it was Ling Monroe who asked the question.
Canghai was silent for a moment before he said slowly: "It should have been nearly 20,000 years ago, even earlier than the appearance of the demon race. That terrifying necromancer appeared, and his full name was, Necromantic Saint God, Necromantic Scourge! Yes, he was a genius light mage before he became a necromancer! ”
