Chapter 463 Then I will start the test directly
The devil's land, from the wasteland to the wild beast's lair.
The undead lead the novice village.
Magdalena frowned slightly. She had just communicated with the beast girl Solaris Ancient Echo, and asked Lind and the undead again, but got no response.
During this year, it was always Lind who contacted her unilaterally, and the messages he sent were very vague every time. Magdalena, who regarded the undead as the main force to regain the Misty Rain City, could not accept that the relationship with the other party was becoming increasingly distant, but she had no other choice. She only felt that relying on the other party's power to rush back to the Misty Rain City had become an unattainable goal.
Misty Rain City, the Ring Knights, those sealed things, and the powerful enemy predicted decades later all made her nervous. She didn't want to waste any time, but Lind and the other undead seemed to like wasting time and disappeared cleanly. These were completely different from what she thought.
If no prediction is made, the development of things cannot be predicted, but if a prediction is made, things will develop uncontrollably in that direction. This is what is called a "prophecy."
She once asked astrologers and got similar answers. It had nothing to do with the "predetermined future", but once involved in this future, one would uncontrollably move towards this future, like a curse for peeking into the future.
Magdalena, who had seen the alien enemy, knew that future would definitely come, whether she was dead or alive.
The huge town has become the most prominent huge city in the wilderness, but it also has another name: Death Castle!
The city is built very huge, but there is nothing inside. No matter how wide the streets are, there is no one there. It is a dead fortress.
After some hesitation, she returned to the corrupt territory to ask for two methods.
The suggestion given by the King of Corruption was very simple. Magdalena could go to other material planes to be guided by herself. Since Lind called the huge city that sprang up from the ground "Undead Guidance Novice Village", it meant that there were other undead people, otherwise there would be no need to name it "Guidance".
How many undead people you can accept depends on your ability.
Even without Lind, they might not be short of undead.
But how to get to other material planes stumped the aunt and niece. They didn't understand magic. Although they had wizards under their command, they didn't have legendary mages. Even the King of Corruption couldn't lead a large number of people through the material plane to the devil's land.
Moreover, the Corruption Queen doesn't care about the future of Wuyu City, the future of mankind, etc. She just wants to be her own Beast King. At most, she will give some help to her blood relatives when they were once humans, and nothing more is impossible.
"From the Mage Tower, maybe they can help?"
I just want a way to freely travel to other material planes, which shouldn't be difficult.
……
Xilu Continent, Sekapis Kingdom, Dragon Blood Forest.
"Come out, come out!"
The crowd was noisy.
Seeing a divine light suddenly flashing in the altar, a huge and majestic figure with a scroll hanging around his waist appeared out of thin air. He suddenly felt a stinging pain in his eyes and dared not look directly at it. He waited until the other party retracted the divine light on his body before he breathed a sigh of relief.
'Hot' Fulin Muen, holding a sword, squinted at the figure. A strong emotion suddenly filled her body. She began to tremble uncontrollably. She couldn't help but breathe rapidly, and fear rose in her heart.
It was a humid and hot day, but I got goose bumps and the breath from my mouth and nose turned into white mist in an instant.
Are there really gods? The other party must be a god. That terrifying aura is definitely not fake.
But will this powerful god really obey the orders of the Sixteenth Prince?
Fulin's neck was lowered uncontrollably, and she happened to see an ant passing by her military boots. As if the ant sensed the bloody aura on her body, it chose to go around her, but she subconsciously moved her military boots slightly and crushed the ant to death.
Did the ant say anything to her just now? It didn't matter, and she didn't crush the ant with any malice, it was just an ant.
So...will the powerful gods really obey the orders of the Sixteenth Prince?
……
Black Swamp Kingdom, Thousand Faces City.
Melulan, known as the "Black Vampire Queen", has already completely taken control of this city and every shadowy corner where the golden sun shines.
Whether the undead exist or not, the impact on her is minimal. She accepted Lind's advice from the very beginning and kept some "chaotic" undead around her. Later, more and more chaotic camp lives gathered, and Thousand Faces City became chaotic.
This place doesn't rely on the undead, so everything will return to normal only after the undead disappear.
As the Black Swamp Kingdom completely became a part of the Rand Kingdom, it was natural for Melulan to hide in the shadows. Her long lifespan and almost immortal abilities gradually gave her some new ideas. She knew that Lind had left her.
What does the devil land look like?
What's the point of being a queen of an ordinary human country?
She was very curious.
But the other party never appeared again after he left. Although Linde once said that he would be back soon, and Melulan herself had an infinite lifespan to wait, but what if she could never wait any longer? After all, that place was known as the border between the mortal world and the divine world.
Suddenly, two crows cawed overhead.
The crow with two blood-red feathers folded its wings and dived to the ground. When it landed, it exploded into a ball of black mist. When it condensed again, it turned into a white-faced, scarlet-lipped woman in a black dress.
"Great Melulan! We have found the location of the dirty blood!"
"Where's the location?"
"There is a black tower on an isolated island on the border of Mocteria Province."
Black Tower? Meilulan would never forget that she was once imprisoned in the tower, and she would never forget that after her death her body was sold for research, and her hands and feet were chopped off and reassembled into a monster using crude limb-replacement magic.
"The blood of the vampires is pure and cannot be violated."
The actions in Thousand Faces City were very secretive, but this group of lawless chaotic forces were careful enough in their actions. As a country with perfect laws, the Kingdom of Rand would never allow criminals who broke the law to exist, so Melulan became the umbrella for these chaotic forces.
In the center of the lake and island, the vast water surface fluctuates with the wind.
Melulan was wearing a red robe and a scarlet light armor with secret patterns. She stood on the boat and watched the sailor steer the boat gradually approaching the isolated island.
The leather belt around her waist tightened her slender waist, but no one present thought that her beauty was her weapon. No matter who saw her, they would only give her the name of the ancestor of the blood clan, and everything else was just a foil.
"It took us a long time to find this place. It has never been recorded on the map, and its traces are often obscured by storms. If the earthquake had not destroyed the magic circle, it would have been a place that could never be explored." The speaker was a chubby man who was also wearing a red robe.
He used to be a monk, maybe he had prayed to a god day and night somewhere, but he was very afraid of death. Melulan could smell the strong body odor on him. His internal organs had been exhausted and he could no longer control the appearance of the odor.
It was no secret that vampires could "cure" death, but Melulan made no promises.
The lowest level blood wart demon is the "highest" reward she can offer. It is impossible to have the same perfect posture as the Scarlet Lady or even the Scarlet Noble. The other party was still boasting, twisting a coin in his hand: "The sailors were shocked when they first landed on the island. They didn't expect that there would be ugly things with filthy blood on the island. After they escaped from death and spread the news, I came to inform you immediately."
As if knowing that Meilulan was not in the mood to chat, the round man kept his talk brief, emphasizing the role he played and omitting some unimportant details.
The truth was that he was doing business on both sides. After discovering that the forces of Melulan's Thousand Faces City and the Rand Kingdom could coexist peacefully, he began to have ideas.
It is no secret that the Kingdom of Rand has recently marched south to conquer the Red Clay of the Kingdom of Sekaps. Every step of the military operation requires financial support, and it is time for him to make a fortune.
But he wanted more, not just money, he wanted to live.
Unexpectedly, they accidentally discovered the vampires in the black tower on the isolated island, and almost all of them were killed by them.
Since vampires are immortal, he immediately arranged for people to go to the island to communicate, trying to obtain a strong body. However, he never expected that the vampires on the island were completely different from the noble blood clan in Thousand Faces City. They could not communicate, were bloodthirsty, and were extremely powerful.
Since he couldn't win the fight and didn't want to waste the troops, he leaked the news.
But I didn't expect that the news would attract the legendary Black Law Vampire Queen.
"Have you ever tried to learn magic?" Melulan looked at the chubby man.
"Magic tricks." He was a little embarrassed, "But I can only learn to spread oil and light fires."
The situation may be worse than what he said, otherwise he would not have to rush to extend his life. Nowadays, whether it is the Rand Kingdom or the Black Swamp Kingdom, as long as one has talent and is willing to work hard, they can obtain magic potions in the form of "borrowing" to improve their strength. Therefore, those who can still maintain their status as ordinary people under such national conditions are most likely to have no talent at all.
"Then stay on the boat with those people." Meilulan said and stood up.
There was still some distance to the black tower on the isolated island, but she could already feel the suppressive force coming from her blood.
I believe that it's not just me, the rest of the vampires should have a similar reaction.
Filthy blood? She just said it casually. From the blood suppression, one can feel that the other party is the real ancestor of the vampire clan.
However, the other party must die today.
Melulan jumped out and turned into black mist and flew towards the black tower. Other vampires also reacted, either turning into black mist or crows and chasing after it.
The sky suddenly became chaotic.
The sailors standing on the boat stared blankly at the sky, but they probably could never have imagined that this time the great Merula was going to usurp the throne. After a war, the one who survives is the orthodox one.
"boom!"
An alchemical bomb suddenly exploded.
“Boom”, “Boom”, “Boom”——!
The successive explosions almost turned the entire island upside down. As for the iconic black tower, it collapsed at the first moment of the explosion.
The sailors on the ship looked at each other.
Why the battle was a little different than they had imagined.
If they rely on spending money to fight, they will do it.
……
Demonic land.
Lind's expression was a little solemn, but with the [Fox Heart], no one could see through his state and only thought that he was thinking.
Perhaps only Tione, who has an extremely pure mind, can perceive some real situations. This may be related to a large piece of magic ring fragment that she possesses.
Ever since the Beast Girl Solaris prayed to the Beast Lord and secretly passed on the message, Lind became alert.
The round-faced princess also wants to subdue the undead.
He had known this for a long time, but because he had been trying hard to make the undead people loyal to "Linde", and because he did not want to break up with him, the other party had not taken action against the undead people.
According to the "plot", Magdalena is an important plot NPC representing the forces of human revival. She is also bound to gain the loyalty of the undead and become the guiding NPC of the new map.
But with Lind's presence, he hopes to become a broker between the undead and the NPCs, and will definitely not allow Magdalena to occupy such an important position.
The two sides are in a competitive relationship.
Now that the round-faced princess has gotten rid of herself and is trying to win over the undead in other material planes, she is actually stealing Lind's job.
If Magdalena really gained an important position, Lind might be tied to the identity of "BOSS", and there would be no way to whitewash it. Moreover, he suspected that if the "official" knew that he was set as the BOSS of the Abyss, they might add fuel to the fire a little, such as directly listing Lind as the first BOSS that must be defeated.
The two sides have never been competing on the same level. Although the "official" has absolute control over the "plot trend", what they can do in this world is far less than what Lind can do, so this weird competition occurs.
But Lind was also very clear that the authorities could not really let the undead attack him. He was just a gun chosen by the abyss, and if he died, he could be replaced at will. He was of no help in resisting the invasion of the abyss.
Lind believes that the authorities will not obstruct him.
But Lind didn't think that Magdalena was the only one in the world who would suddenly make plans and recruit people in advance as if she had received some guidance.
If the number of NPCs like Magdalena increases, the undead will simply be divided into countless forces.
Different national forces, different religious forces, etc. It is hard to say what the "official" goal is, but it is certain that it does not care which god the undead are loyal to or which power they choose to use.
Such an immortal person is thrown into the arms of different forces and generously distributed to different forces by the "officials". He is the one who suffers the most.
"grown ups?"
"We should go back." Linde looked at William.
"Go home?" William was pleasantly surprised. He really missed his brothers and sisters. "When?"
"Now."
Lind looked at the people in front of him and didn't need everyone to follow him.
If you want to make a plan, I will just overturn the table.
Don’t do it anymore, let’s all start from scratch!
I will start testing 2.0 directly!
