278 Divine sin

the moment they heard this ” sad music, ” the ghoul army that had filled the entire moon passage all rushed forward. many of them jumped up and stepped on the ghouls in front of them, forcing their way through.

The entire tunnel had become a large-scale trampling scene, as if there was a torrent of positive energy behind them that could destroy everything.

zhao xu couldn’t help but turn around and look at the path he had taken to get here, but he couldn’t find anything.

after the undead creature ‘shadow’ left, the place had become empty.

He looked at the path again and saw that the entrance of the passage, which was originally several meters high, was now densely packed with ghouls who were fighting to be the first.

When Zhao Xu saw this, he let go of his hand and jumped down from the wall as well. His shoes suddenly stepped into a strange ” waterhole. However, he didn’t have the time to think about it. His attention was completely focused on the ghouls in front of him.

“master, should we follow?” Lacus suggested.

“yes.” this was the reason why zhao xu had just come down the wall. he quickly followed behind the ghoul that was lagging behind, and he was less than ten meters away from it.

As for the ghouls that were lagging behind, they kept leaning on the ghouls in front of them, but they could no longer squeeze through.

zhao xu walked for about ten minutes before he noticed that the tunnel ahead of him was starting to light up, which meant that he was about to reach the end of the tunnel.

from the distance they followed, he estimated that the tunnel was probably more than a thousand meters long.

that meant that there were probably more than 10000 ghouls just now.

There was no need to mention anything else. Just the fact that the ghoul Army from this corridor had been placed on the battlefield of fallen star Lake, the players ‘chances of winning were uncertain.

Zhao Xu had been following them all the way here, and he finally caught a whiff of some fresh air, which made his nose feel a little better.

As the number of ghouls slowly decreased, light from the outside world began to seep through the densely-packed holes.

at this moment, zhao xu had reached the end of the corridor, and the path in front of him had been cut off.

he looked over and saw an empty field of vision. a hundred meters below him was the vast underground city.

countless ancient buildings stood in the forest, and they were all designed in a style from thousands of years ago. many of the buildings had turned yellow on the outside, revealing the mud inside.

Zhao Xu could still feel the magnificence of the place even though he was looking at it from afar. It was as if it had been through history, and the only thing it lacked was the human presence.

And Zhao Xu was currently in the middle of a cliff, and the tunnel he was in was just one of the many holes that had been dug out from the cliff.

The ghouls that ran out were currently rushing down the 70 – 80 degree slope of the cliff, or rather, rolling down.

zhao xu stuck his head out a little and looked over. he realized that this wasn’t the only cave on this side of the cliff. there were more than ten other caves that were close to this one, and all of them were spewing out a large number of undead creatures that were running towards the town below. there were zombies, skeletons, mummies, ghouls, and so on.

however, the world in front of them was still singing the song of mourning for the dead. the voice seemed to come from the gray and monotonous sky, directly penetrating into everyone’s heart.

“This is the ancient ‘land of the sleeping’ anta. When the god of death, Nairo, fell, it was cut away from the main material plane and turned into a floating half-plane. i just didn’t expect it to actually fuse with this ‘scavenger beast pit’ demiplane.” lacus said with emotion.

the land of the sleeping?

zhao xu’s knowledge of religion, history, and places instantly linked together and retrieved a section of content.

The land of the sleeping, a legendary country full of undead creatures. It was once the testing ground of the god of death, Nairo. Even the most courageous Paladins who worked hard to kill the undead creatures didn’t dare to set foot in the city easily.

it wasn’t hard for zhao xu to understand why there were tens of thousands of ghouls in the tunnel. it turned out that he had arrived in this town that was filled with undead creatures.

but zhao xu was still thinking about the reason.

the mages of the association did not tell him that anta had appeared in the death god’s interdimensional space.

this meant that this had only happened a few days ago, and naturally, it was the work of the artificial death. what was the point of their scheme?

In order for it to better grasp the god of death’s divinity?

zhao xu could sense that there was a lot of danger in the tunnel, so he crouched down even lower. at this moment, he no longer cared about the stench that was still lingering in the tunnel.

“Lacus, you were the one who helped the artificial death, allowing him to escape the ritual of the god of death, priest Nairo. Since it had already left, why did it wait for me to enter the underground temple before leaving? then, it decisively entered the interdimensional space to obtain the god of death’s divinity?” zhao xu asked.

“what other preparations does it lack?”

“that’s right, master,” Lacus explained carefully, ” in fact, it has been waiting for the day of the War of the Gods. At that time, the gods and Arthur’s various dimensional forces won’t have the time to pay attention to it. ”

however, master’s entrance into the underground temple has attracted the attention of the Sorcerer Association and the goddess’s temple. Naturally, it can no longer hide.

When Zhao Xu heard this, he couldn’t help but sigh. It turned out that they had been waiting for a hundred years just for an opportunity to create chaos. He just didn’t expect to be interrupted by him.

“Master, if you can acquire a divine spark, let alone a thousand years, even ten thousand years wouldn’t matter.” it was as if lacus had seen too many cases of people fighting for divinity. ” even if the sorcerer’s association suspects that there’s a divinity here, they’ll still be patient and slowly infiltrate the place for thousands of years. ”

“even when the artificial death entered this time, they were calm, and the legendary-mages were also on standby. this is because time and patience will allow them to defeat all their enemies. if this artificial death is not dealt with properly, it will only create an opportunity for the mage association to become a god.”

therefore, merging this ‘land of the sleepers’ is the way artificial death is going to deal with it.

suddenly, the ” song of the dead ” that was playing in the sky started to ring out even louder. it affected zhao xu’s thoughts and he started to get immersed in this sad atmosphere.

In the land of the dead, countless undead creatures that were wandering around blindly were also kneeling in one direction.

the fear that came from their higher status made these skeletons and zombies, who had no consciousness or intelligence, kneel on the ground and dare not move at all.

Zhao Xu was still trying to figure out what was going on, but the corner of his eye immediately reminded him of the source of this strange situation.

At the edge of the pale sky, an Amber coffin was slowly flying in the air. There were countless silver chains on the coffin, each connected to a flying creature.

a total of 24 huge flying creatures, each chained up, hung the amber coffins in the sky and accepted the worship of countless undead creatures.

these flying creatures were like huge bats. just by spreading their wings, they were more than ten meters long, and their bodies were shrouded in shadows.

around the stone coffin, there were more than ten balls of black energy. one could barely make out that they were black human-shaped. they were not holding the amber coffins, and looked like they were just guarding the perimeter. their flying posture was also very slow and clumsy.

zhao xu then noticed that there was a mummy sitting on one of the bat-like flying creatures.

For a moment, Zhao Xu couldn’t think of how a low-level monster like a mummy would be related to these undead creatures that looked so extraordinary.

However, Zhao Xu had just taken a quick glance at it when he immediately felt a chill run down his spine. The fear in the depths of his heart also came gushing out and filled his entire body.

[ adventurer zhongxia, you have been affected by the ‘despair’ effect. Due to fear, you have entered a ‘numb’ state. This state will last for three rounds (1d4 rounds). ]

Zhao Xu couldn’t move at all and was frozen in place.

The giant dragon that had once flown over his head had swooped down and roared at his team, causing them to be affected by the effect of the giant Dragon’s might.

That was the state of ‘fear’.

who would have thought that zhao xu’s glance from a few hundred meters away would cause him to be ” paralyzed ” and unable to move?

master, that’s a demigod mummy. It’s immune to the ‘despair’ effect of a level 48 difficulty. Anyone who sees it will have to resist it.

Lux’s tone turned serious. She had never paid this much attention to the pit fiend, who was almost legendary in terms of combat level.

” ordinary mummies are formed from the death of humans. ”

however, a demigod mummy means that they were demigods before they died. said lux.

next to the amber coffin is the undead ‘Night Shadow’. They are powerful undead creatures made up of darkness and pure evil. the bat-like night shadow that was chained up was the level 14 ‘flying night shadow’. the night shade that is guarding against humanoid figures is the level 16 ‘crouching night shade’. ”

it was only then that zhao xu noticed that there were other undead creatures walking out from the void behind the amber coffin, and they were all following the coffin.

But Zhao Xu’s eyes were immediately fixed on one of the larger undead creatures. He looked at its baby-like appearance with a confused expression.

that’s an abomination, the stillborn of the gods-atrophile. Lacus noticed what Zhao Xu was looking at, so she added on to the explanation.

however, she was even more careful with this existence.

the shrunken will kill all life on the scene. In fact, many undead creatures are controlled by the shrunken. It’s the owner of the land of the sleeping, but I didn’t expect it to still exist.

“master, you have to be very careful. both the abomination shriveling and the demigod mummy are legendary creatures, and they may even have divine power.”

when zhao xu saw this, he knew that this was the most dangerous moment he had ever encountered since he started playing this game. he controlled his trembling body and backed off a little, as if the darkness behind him would be able to protect him.

“then what’s in the amber coffin they’re escorting?” zhao xu asked.

“Yes, the divine spark of the Grim Reaper. Our target this time.” lacus said cheerfully, as if she had just caught her prey.
