Section 129 The Schemes of the Undead (3)
Mana Central Temple-
The chief priest, Lindsay, was sitting in front of the statue of the goddess Mana, frowning deeply.
Unexpectedly, after the victory of the goddess Manna over the Dragon Emperor, peace still did not come to Fadel. First, there was an invasion by aliens, and the goddess signaled that a new evil was coming.
But the evil aliens have defeated the temple alliance many times, not to mention, recently, the former subordinates of the Dragon Emperor have become entangled and taken the opportunity to make trouble, and they have attacked the Western Great Temple, which imprisons the remnants of the Dragon Emperor's soul.
Although the High Priest sent two Children of the Holy Spirit to the scene immediately after hearing the news, he was still one step too late, and the Dragon Emperor's men not only killed the Chief Priest there, but also took away the soul bead containing the remnant soul of the Dragon Emperor.
However, the Dragon Emperor's subordinates also caused a disturbance, and it was the Red Lotus Mage and the Obsidian Knight who took the Dragon Emperor's soul beads, and it is said that they were seriously injured after being attacked by the Evil Eye Count and the Masked Mage.
Their men also suffered heavy losses in the internal strife, and the Red Lotus Mage and the Obsidian Knight's men were routed, some were co-opted, and some fled back to their tribes.
The two Children of the Holy Spirit injured the mage mage, but they themselves were also injured and are now resting in the pool of the Holy Spirit in the central temple.
Lindsay has ordered that the aliens be monitored, and that the Dragon Emperor's men be hunted down first, and that the remnants of the Dragon Emperor must not be allowed to revivenation.
There was a silent vibration behind her, and Lindsay turned away in surprise, for this kind of vibration, as the high priest of the goddess of Mana, the chief priest of the central temple of Mana, she was all too familiar.
This is a fluctuation of divine power, a precursor to the coming of the oracle.
Behind her, the statue of Mana, which was more than 50 meters high, suddenly glowed with gold from the cold stone. Gold shines from the top of the head of the god Mana. Swiftly expanded to the entire idol.
The golden idol seemed to come to life. Give birth to a majestic and unfathomable will.
"Goddess!" Lindsay hurriedly fell to the ground, feeling a slight panic in her heart.
As the high priestess of the goddess, Lindsay knew that in the decisive battle between the goddess and the dragon emperor, the goddess herself came and fused with the previous high priest, although she defeated the dragon emperor Biskra Ulit and imprisoned her remnant soul, but she also suffered some damage. Need to restore fΓΉ.
Later, the alien people invaded, and the goddess Manna only descended two divine doppelgangers and gave birth to the children of the Holy Spirit to help the temple.
Lindsay deeply felt his incompetence, ashamed of the goddess and the believers, did not share the worries of the goddess, and dealt with a mere alien, and even asked the goddess to lose her divine power again.
But now what is it that makes the goddess take the initiative to descend to the will, is there something big happening?
The most recent major event is only the escape of the remnant soul of the Dragon Emperor, and there seems to be nothing abnormal when it comes closer. In addition to the change in the sky just now, Lindsay also faintly felt uneasy. There seemed to be a huge force passing near the temple, faintly revealing a very uncomfortable evil meaning, but before Lindsay could make further contact, this force automatically disappeared between heaven and earth.
Could it be related to this?
Lindsay stopped his surprise and doubt, calmed down, and entered the most pious posture, and began to connect with the will of the goddess Mana and listen to the oracle.
The golden light shimmered, and the warm and majestic voice of the goddess Manna resounded in Lindsay's heart.
A surprising oracle, the goddess of Mana made Lindsay stop attacking the aliens, and even put the hunt for the remnant soul of the Dragon Emperor to the second level, because a new evil has come and is thriving in the East, which is the great enemy of life, the most evil being, and it is completely impossible to compromise at all-
In a small village in the east, a frightened scream could be heard in the early morning.
Any normal person would be surprised to see this scene, this small village of only a few hundred people was surrounded by dense skeleton soldiers at this time.
The lowliest of these undead soldiers were much more polite than the tax collectors the villagers had encountered, and at least they wouldn't take all the possessions they had.
But what they did was even more frightening, because what they needed to harvest was the lives of the villagers.
Even if they hadn't seen the undead before, the hideous appearance of the undead creatures would tell others about their horror and malice in the first place.
Therefore, in the early morning screams, although the most are frightened, they are also accompanied by resistance.
Of course, this kind of resistance is absolutely ineffective, although the skeleton soldiers are slow, but they still have a little combat power, if it is a skeleton soldier that has evolved a bone knife, bone armor and the like, its combat effectiveness is not inferior to that of an adult man, and it can be equivalent to a zero-order creature.
The key is their numbers, the skeletons who surrounded and attacked this small village were ten times as many as the number in the village.
The resistance was quickly crushed, and the dead were led on the spot by the undead army accompanying them, and a black-robed mage was directly transformed into a zombie soldier, and the zombie soldier's combat power was better than that of the skeleton soldier.
But the strangest thing is that those who did not die were not immediately killed after being captured by the undead, but were restrained and taken away by the undead creatures like prey.
It felt like this army of the undead was hunting.
At least to Solomon on a cliff somewhere in the distance, they felt like that.
"Don't we have to make a move?" asked Agatha.
After Solomon told everyone that the teleportation route back to Asturias had been cut off and could not be reconnected for the time being, everyone understood that something might have happened.
So over the next few days, they left the valley and began to move eastward, looking for the cause of this qiΔ.
After a few days of trekking, they came across a man who had gone to the empty village, which showed obvious signs of resistance, but could not find any living or corpses, but belonged to the wealth that the robbers should covet, and it was indescribably strange.
Solomon did not explain it to them, and he remained silent along the way.
By the time everyone saw the scene in front of them, Solomon didn't have to explain much, and all the anomalies were supposed to be related to the undead.
The girl's kindness was not reciprocated, among the people who accompanied her, Guerra was originally from the Asturian Secret Guard, and the nature of the killers and assassins was somewhat similar, and the first principle of dealing with things was definitely not mercy, otherwise he would have died dozens of times; Eradicating evil and the like is much more important, and the only thing that can change this principle is now the decision of the master.
But it is clear that her master, Solomon, does not have the will to do so now.
"Miss Agatha, don't embarrass Count Solomon, for we are all in danger of protecting ourselves now. The most important thing for us at the moment is to find out the intentions of these undead, what they want to do, and how they led us to the native plane of Asturias to lose contact with the coordinates, and only with this knowledge can we figure it out. Guerra seemed to be answering Agatha, but his eyes were on Solomon, perhaps his real intention was to ask Solomon.
Agatha bit her lip and stopped talking, if it was Guerra alone, with her young lady's temper, she might not have bought it, but the situation really didn't seem to be good, if she made her lover very difficult, and even might be in danger because of it, the beautiful girl would never want to see it.
She could only look apologetically at the villagers who had been captured by the undead creatures, and she felt as if her mind had been immersed in an ice pool, becoming more and more numb.
Solomon glanced at Gera faintly, "As you can guess, I'm not more than you." I did feel the aura of darkness or the undead when the teleportation failed in the valley before, but you should have felt it then, but now it's just a matter of making sure. I don't know why the undead are here, but I'm sure it was premeditated, because I know the leader of the undead creatures. β
"It's Elaine, it's that Elaine. Leonis also thought about it, and couldn't help but exclaim.
With Leonis's voice, not only Glaa remembered, but even Agatha, who was the least attentive, thought of this person, but she usually put her mind either on Solomon, or she was curious about new things, and she couldn't even recall his appearance as the taciturn and impressed companion.
"Yes, it's him. So I'm sure it's a necromancer, and most likely even a conspiracy on the Isle of the Dead. Solomon said with a solemn expression.
"And what should we do now?" Leonis's face changed, and the situation was strange and dangerous.
"If it really has something to do with the Isle of the Dead, I suspect that in the place where we want to find the truth, that is, in the direction where Elaine and the others are returning just now, there is a legendary-level undead king waiting for us. Maybe we can learn from him why the teleportation connection failed before, but I definitely don't want to ask him in person. Solomon said slowly.
Gra's indifferent expression changed slightly, and Leonis shuddered even more, talking to the legendary level undead king, there is a high possibility that she will become one of the undead from now on.
"What then? But if we don't know much information, I, how are we going to get back?" said Leonis.
"Yes, regardless of whether or not the loss of contact with the homeland and the inability to resolve the new dimensional coordinates are related to the undead, we must learn as much as we can about the status of the undead. Gera groaned for a moment, then said resolutely, "Let me try to sneak in after the undead just now." β
Leonis breathed a sigh of relief, Gracan is the best to undertake this task, Solomon will definitely not take the initiative to go, Agatha is either his sister or his lover, and will definitely not take on this dangerous task, the most likely is that she was forced by Solomon to go, and now Gracan is willing to stand up, it will solve the problem, and someone does need to reconnoitre.
Solomon shook his head, "That's too dangerous. β
"If I die, there will be no loss to you. Guerra glanced at Agatha imperceptibly, "Do you have a better way?"
Who knew that Solomon really nodded and said affirmatively: "I have a better way." (To be continued!)
