The city of Caines was hit by a disaster. A big demon that escaped from the courtyard of Kusai City to Caines committed a brutal massacre in Caines City.
When the great devil used the sleeping spell and the color domain protozoa to cause a large number of casualties to the citizens of Caines City, a magic tide warning occurred in the Caines courtyard.
When the adventurers in the courtyard failed to respond in time, citizen Mu Hua and a group of witches who had just participated in the Star Patrol Meeting launched a desperate counterattack against the evil demon.
In the fierce battle, Mu Hua awakened his original sin talent, transformed into a ghost, and finally killed the devil.
Although the devil died, a large number of citizens in the city of Cairns also died. Under the influence of the ghost god Mu Hua, some of the dead citizens turned into ghosts and gained a brief continuation of life.
In order to commend Mu Hua's contribution and to ensure that the rights of the citizens who turned into ghosts can be protected, the Empire made an exception and granted Mu Hua the title of Honorary Lord and designated the original area of Kanes City as Mu Hua's territory.
Due to the negligence of the city of Qusay, which led to the disaster in the city of Kanins, the mayor of Qusay, the director of the Qusay City Police Force, and the commander of the third corps of the Qusay Courtyard Garrison Regiment were dismissed and held accountable.
As the post-disaster reconstruction work in Caines City has begun, the citizens of Qusay City have actively donated money and materials, and are planning to set aside a large area of land at the junction of Qusay City and Caines City to build a resettlement community, so that the ghost citizens of Caines City and their families outside can move here in the future.
A few days after the Penelope incident, the Canes incident was finally characterized. Well, that’s what the outside world saw anyway. The large-scale documentary “Canes Post-Disaster Reconstruction Project” was continuously updated on the entire network. . .
A heavy snow fell, and without the bustle of reconstruction, the city of Cairns filled with skeletons and ghosts looked even more depressed against the backdrop of the snow.
After dealing with the color domain mosquitoes in the Kanes area, Tao Les hurried back to the Demon Island.
The degree of taboo against the color domain ghost god is even deeper than that of the jealous ghost god like Mu Hua. The taboo here does not refer to his charm ability, but the distortion of ignoring reproductive isolation, which has a bad influence. What's more, the big demon of the city of Cains is also a color domain demon.
The winter in Bear Pig Town was completely filled with snow. A small team was walking in an orderly manner on the streets of the town. Mu Hua was riding a Purgatory Warhorse in the middle of the team.
A group of thirty or forty skeleton wizards attracted the ghosts on the roadside to avoid them. In just a few days, although they did not kill indiscriminately, these skeleton wizards did kill quite a few crazy and screaming ghosts.
The team of skeleton undead is rigorous and rigid. Long-term meditation has made the consciousness of these skeleton mages more ethereal, but after receiving Mu Hua's orders, they have become more focused on the various mission instructions.
Even when walking on the streets of the small town, these skeleton mages remained highly vigilant. Apart from the sound of bones rubbing against each other, all the skeleton mages in the team could hear various elemental magic brewing on their bony palms at all times.
There are some ghosts hiding or gathering in the direction of the new city area. Those ghosts are gradually persuaded or eliminated by Old Morey and his men.
Three philosopher's stones can make a ghost evolve into an evil spirit, ten philosopher's stones can make an evil spirit evolve into a fierce spirit, and fifty philosopher's stones can make a fierce spirit enter the realm of dead souls. Of course, all of this requires Mu Hua's assistance.
Mu Hua evolved ten people including Old Morey who were familiar to him in the past into dead souls. If there were no interference from external forces, Old Morey and his companions would be the kings who control life and death among these ghosts in the city of Cairns.
After a few days, old Morey and his gang began to show signs of ferocity. Since dead souls can touch entities, old Barron even asked Mu Hua about ghost drinks, intending to rebuild the tavern and reopen it.
Except for the new city area, the more obedient ghosts in the Caines area were concentrated in the academy, which was temporarily managed by Caroline and a group of vampires who had escaped by chance.
When the ghosts' emotions are more stable, Mu Hua will arrange for those ghosts with families to meet with their families. As for their next placement, according to the intention survey, most of them are willing to stay in Caines.
After all, if they leave Caines, most people will not be able to see them. Even if the Empire recognizes their citizenship, they will be like wandering ghosts. Once they lose their rationality, the Night Hunters in the outside world will not show any mercy when they destroy them.
Accompanying a team of skeleton wizards, Mu Hua also observed the emotions of the townspeople he met on the road. These townspeople included both living people and ghosts.
At least Doris didn't do anything evil and spread the doom of death in the town, otherwise there would be few people in the town who could breathe.
After the Empire provided a large number of purification scrolls, the deathly aura in the town has been basically dispelled and purified, and it does not affect the normal survival and activities of people here for the time being.
Ghosts are naturally able to control the spread of their own deathly energy, but they don't like the purified environment in the town.
In the future, when these ghosts return home, we will have to set up isolation barriers in their homes so as to create a dead environment suitable for their living and growth in their homes without affecting the outdoors.
Compared with the college and the new city area, the townspeople are treated more specially. This special treatment also makes them listen to Mu Hua more and trust Mu Hua more. They can barely be considered Mu Hua's team.
As we walked along, the abandoned Spring Branch appeared before our eyes. This was arguably the most dead area in the Caines region.
The death energy here was mostly left over from the battle between Mu Hua and Penelope. When the densely populated ghosts here did not restrain the death energy they emitted, it gathered into a source of death energy.
Without purification, the academy has already marched forward in the direction of the burial ground. It is inevitable that this place will attract ghosts from the cracks in the space, and it is not certain that skeletons and undead will emerge from the ground. . .
Mu Hua led his team and walked towards the school gate in a swagger. Some people who set up the isolation barrier at the gate respectfully saluted and made way for him.
The barriers surrounding the academy have no defensive capabilities and no purification effects. They simply prevent the aura of death within the academy from spreading outward.
The personnel and barrier crystals were all sent by the imperial authorities. It was said that they were mainly aid from the city of Kusai. Mu Hua could not help but look at them as if they were being taken advantage of. He felt embarrassed when they saluted him.
The people who set up the barrier made way for Mu Hua. There were some wandering ghosts in the academy watching Mu Hua from afar. These ghosts could move freely within the academy. When they saw Mu Hua, most of them would show some uneasiness and curiosity.
As he entered the academy, he saw a group of people walking towards Mu Hua. "Wei Er, are you trying to kill yourself? Why are you here?" Mu Hua couldn't help but shout when he saw the person in front of him.
"Hehe, Mu, you said you can help us gain psychic powers? This badge really makes me feel insecure." The Skeleton Mage stepped back, and Will pointed to the pendant around his neck. It turned out to be a group of Night Hunters stationed in the town.
"Communication with spirits isn't that fast. I also need to get some Hell Demon Chains to restrain the devil. What are you doing..." Mu Hua looked at Weir in confusion.
Joe, Marcy, and the unlucky Ronald also went to the mayor's succession site and died.
Mu Hua did not recognize the other two Night Hunters around Will, including the witch Melinda, who Mu Hua had rescued from Penelope earlier.
A group of people stood together, with Will vaguely at the head.
By the way, even if Ronald is dead, why is Will in the first place and everyone else is like his little brother?
"I became the captain of the Night Hunters stationed in the city of Cairns." Will smiled bitterly.
"Huh?" Mu Hua was surprised.
The Night Hunters are probably going to go bankrupt, right? They let a young man who aspires to be a salary thief be the leader of a city.
"My mission is to connect with you. Mu, the Night Hunters will not interfere in the affairs of the town, but..."
"Um...if you want to leave the city of Caines in the future, could you please tell me first?" A group of people stood respectfully behind Will, and Will said to Mu Hua with a guilty conscience.
Mu Hua looked at Will with a strange expression. Well, he was another sucker. Will, who originally just wanted to get a job among the Night Hunters and was planning to live a life of idleness and wait for death, was pushed out by the Night Hunters to take the blame.
Jealousy goes out with a ghost accompanying him. It would be fine if Mu Hua goes into the courtyard, but if he hangs around in the human world, the Night Hunter will probably arrange someone to clean up after him.
The Night Hunters obviously did not believe that a ghost or god would honestly report to them before going out, so Will was pushed out to meet Mu Hua, and he had to bear all the beatings and scoldings.
No wonder the group of "little brothers" behind him are so well behaved. It's not easy to find a boss like Weir.
"Will, you should call me Lord if you represent the Night Hunters." Looking at Will, Mu Hua's expression gradually became cold. Friends are friends, but if it is a friend who comes to keep an eye on him with a mission, it is better to distinguish between public and private during work.
"Yes, sir." Will was very dutiful. When he saluted, he even let Melinda out.
"Sir, this is the guard knight sent to you by the Night Hunter. This... seems to be a mandatory requirement. The empire has regulations in this regard." Weil said to Mu Hua.
"Knight? Don't give me that. She is obviously a witch. Melinda, did Webster fire you?" Mu Hua curled his lips.
Although it is not certain what Melinda's main mission is when she follows Webster, it is probably more like a double insurance for him to inform the Night Hunters where the jealous ghost is wandering around.
"In the previous incident, I was the only witch rescued by you, and the palace felt that I should get along well with you. Don't worry, the Night Hunters don't want to cause trouble. On the contrary, I will help you deal with a lot of troubles." Melinda said to Mu Hua.
"Guard or secretary?" Mu Hua asked.
"Whatever." Melinda's eyelids twitched.
“Who pays the salary?”
"The Imperial Government."
"Not a Night Hunter?"
"No, but it's about the same."
"What if I refuse?"
"You'll probably have some romantic encounters from time to time after that."
"Not with you here?" Mu Hua's eyes twitched. He liked romantic encounters, but it was a bit disgusting if he was not sure whether it was a planned one. He would not underestimate the professional capabilities of the imperial spies.
"Of course, that would be no good to me. If I find out, I will file a complaint," said Melinda.
"Okay, follow me. You guys, if you have nothing to do, go help the people outside purify the death energy. By the way, apply for some small-scale death energy isolation barriers, as some townspeople also need some death energy environment in their homes." Mu Hua acknowledged Melinda's existence, and turned to Will and the others.
As a ghost living in the human world, it is inevitable to be subject to some restrictions. Tao Les stays on the Exile Island all day.
That's why Mu Hua felt that all ghosts and gods were similar to local gods.
There is no need to be too serious about having a witch planted by your side. It is better than hooking up with a girl and kissing her, only to find out that she is a spy or something... (End of this chapter)
