Chapter 359 Purple Alert, The Enraged Lord of the Skeletons
Chapter 359 Purple Alert, The Enraged Lord of the Skeletons
The city wall turned gray-black the instant it came into contact with the black rainbow, and the next second the entire sturdy bunker of the north city wall was completely swallowed up. At the same time, the huge explosion caused many people's eardrums to bleed.
The shockwave caused many to temporarily lose their sight. When their vision returned, the people on the city wall were stunned. They couldn't believe their eyes. The mountain-like city wall had vanished! Yes, it had vanished!
Only tiny, sand-like fragments were scattered everywhere by the strong wind. Soon, various angry and painful sounds came from both ends of the vanished city wall. The most frenzied was the short man standing next to Mo Fan. He seemed to have gone mad and wanted to fight the Lord of the Underworld, who was several miles away.
The short man had originally planned to buy some supplements for his wife after the mission, but who would have thought that the Lord of the Underworld would suddenly attack, and coincidentally, the place of the attack was the hospital where his wife was about to give birth. How could he possibly stay calm after that?
If Mo Fan hadn't used the Giant Shadow Nail to imprison the dwarf on the city wall, the dwarf would have charged down and risked his life.
The death shockwave of the Skeleton King not only destroyed the city walls, but also razed most of the blocks behind them to the ground. Not only the short man's pregnant wife, but at least nearly a thousand citizens perished in this disaster.
"Damn it!!" Zhu Meng stared furiously at the street that had been razed to the ground, and slammed his right fist into the bricks of the city wall.
The expressions on the faces of Du Xiao Lie Wang, Chief Instructor Fei Jiao, and Lu Xu Jun Si were also extremely grim. Just then, Jiang Han suddenly spoke up, "Du Xiao Lie Wang, Chief Instructor Fei Jiao, Lu Xu Jun Si, and Old Man Zhu, have you noticed anything amiss?"
"Did you find anything?" Du Xiao Lie Wang asked疑惑地.
"It's dawn. The undead are no longer afraid of the sunlight, and this rain reminded me of some unpleasant memories," Jiang Han said, looking down at the army of rotting corpses moving through the muddy puddles in the distance.
"Yes, why wouldn't the dead be afraid of sunlight?" At this moment, Chief Instructor Feijiao suddenly realized that something was wrong. It turned out that it was already daylight, but the dead had not retreated to the underground tomb.
This is not good news. If the dead no longer fear sunlight, it will be a nightmare and a disaster for the entire ancient capital.
"The disaster in Bo City back then was also caused by a rainstorm. That rainstorm was the 'Frenzied Spring' created by the Black Vatican using the sacred spring on their land. Also, yesterday I encountered an attack by undead during the day, and those undead were also immune to sunlight," Jiang Han said.
"You mean this attack is related to the Black Vatican?"
Zhu Meng wasn't stupid; he quickly figured out the meaning behind Jiang Han's words.
"While I can't be completely certain, it's at least 80-90% likely," Jiang Han said.
"If the Black Vatican is indeed behind this, then the Skeleton Lord might just be the beginning. I suggest we raise the alert and evacuate our personnel," Chief Instructor Feijiao suggested after a brief analysis.
"Seconded!" X3
Zhu Meng, Lu Xu, and Du Xiao had no objections to Fei Jiao's proposal. None of them could guarantee that they would survive the undead riot, so they all agreed to arrange for the citizens to evacuate the ancient capital.
"Young man from the Jiang family, although I don't particularly like you, I still have to say that if the outcome is really the worst, you should just leave." Zhu Meng looked at Jiang Han, his eyes filled with complex emotions.
"Yeah, you're still young, unlike us who've pretty much reached our limit once we reach the Super Rank," Du Xiao Lie Wang added.
Lu Xu and Fei Jiao shared similar sentiments with Zhu Meng and the others. They did not want a prodigy like Jiang Han to perish here. If Jiang Han were to die here, it would not only be a loss for the Jiang family of Xingcheng but also a loss for China. Therefore, if things came to that, they would buy Jiang Han time to escape.
"Don't worry, I might actually be someone who values my life a lot," Jiang Han said with a chuckle.
The reason he said that the undead riot was related to the Black Vatican was because just now, many things about the disaster in the ancient capital had surfaced in his mind. However, he only saw from those memories that Salang was hiding in the upper echelons of the ancient capital. He only knew that she was a woman, but he couldn't recall who she was. This made Jiang Han extremely frustrated.
This also gave Jiang Han a sense of urgency, as he had to raise his spiritual realm to the sixth level as soon as possible.
Once he raises his spiritual realm to the sixth level, his strength will not only increase several times, but he will also completely recover his memories from his previous life, and he will no longer be held back by various special events, just like he is now.
Just then, the entire northern district was shrouded in an eerie purple, a color favored by charming girls. The vast district was enveloped in this eerie purple, creating a scene of breathtaking beauty while also serving as a warning of impending disaster.
"Purple... Purple alert!!!" When Mo Fan saw the purple alert light up over the North District, his pupils shrank to pinpoints. He had to remember that the Bo City disaster had only been red.
Throughout the city, citizens were fleeing, and due to the large number of people, some even abandoned their cars and ran away.
Purple, a color that even the elderly who have lived in the ancient capital for most of their lives have never seen before, suddenly appeared in the sky above the northern part of the city or the ancient capital today.
On the main city tower, Jiang Han and his companions could clearly hear the shouts of numerous undead outside the city walls, shouts that were even more deafening than the darkness of night.
The mages guarding the entire city wall were all exhausted. They were supposed to be able to rest after experiencing the Ghost Tyrant's plan, but instead they were surrounded by a tsunami like a towering wave. Despite not having orders from Lu Xu and other high-ranking officials, they still forced themselves to stand on the city wall despite their exhaustion.
Looking at the army of rotting corpses that stretched like a tide below the city walls, the guarding mages on the walls were filled with despair.
Meanwhile, the terrifying Skeleton Lord hovering in the sky was staring at Long Da, who was hovering above the city wall. Logically speaking, the skeleton army in this area of the ancient capital should be under its command, but who knew that a traitor would appear today, constantly ignoring its orders and even fighting back.
If it weren't for the fact that the Lord of the Underworld felt it was a pity to kill this monarch's skeleton, it would have attacked Long Da long ago. The reason it didn't attack Long Da was mainly to give Long Da a chance to make the Dragon Minister submit.
However, since Long Da is Jiang Han's contracted beast, the plans of the Lord of the Underworld are destined to fail.
After a long while, the Lord of the Underworld roared to the sky, but Long Da did not make any move. Instead, he exhaled several breaths of icy breath, which directly annihilated the rotting corpses and skeletons near the city wall.
"roar!!"
This time, the Lord of Skeletons was completely enraged. As the Lord of Skeletons roared and swept across the land, all the undead skeletons obeyed its command and crawled out of their tombs. The white-boned skeleton army roared and charged towards the city wall.
