Chapter 254: Resurrected Divine Lich

Chapter 254: Resurrected Divine Lich

The breathings of Rhodok sergeants quickened.

However, they did not make any decisions on their own. Instead, they slowly retreated from the door that was pushed open.

Although the light from the torches could only illuminate a dozen meters around them, the walls of the hall were decorated with gold and glass ornaments. Therefore, when the torches flickered, they almost illuminated the entire hall of the temple.

Similarly, the floor was filled with skeletons and bones.

The entire room was filled with skeletons.

Layers upon layers.

The skeletons were pressed on top of the skeletons. The skeletons were ghastly white, and there some linen or velvet cloth on them. However, they were all tattered, which made them look even more ghastly and terrifying.

The Rhodok sergeant looked at each other and completely retreated out of the hall.

They retreated into the alley.

The last soldier turned around and left. He needed to report this situation to Kant.

However, he hadn’t left the alley yet.

A new torch appeared at the stone door outside, and more Rhodok sergeants walked in.

At the same time, Kant, who was surrounded and protected, also came in.

“Calm down.”

Kant frowned. Seeing the abnormal anxious look of this Rhodok sergeant, he could not help but clench his heart. He asked him in a low voice, “What happened? What did you find in the temple?”

“My lord, there are skeletons everywhere!”, the sergeant quickly reported.

“Skeletons?”

Kant’s pupils instantly shrank.

The low-level skeleton footman of the undead race appeared in his mind.

They were wearing broken armors and holding weapons made of ribs or thigh bones. Some of the better ones might have rusty or broken iron weapons. The blue soul fire flashed in the eye sockets of these skeleton soldiers. They were once the ancient warriors and only their bones were left in the tombs. However, they were manipulated and then resurrected by the evil, desecrated by the wicked undead.

Although these skeleton soldiers with only their bones left had very low combat power, the undead was capable to control a large number of skeleton soldiers and drowned the enemy with the wave attacks. Otherwise, the famous undead disaster would not have existed!

“Stay alert!”

Kant ordered in a deep voice.

The soldiers who had swarmed in behind quickly retreated and spread their vigilance around the pyramid.

In such a narrow area, so many soldiers could only be a burden.

As elite troops, they naturally knew that fewer people meant more. Thus, the Rhodok sergeants, who were good at fighting and protecting on foot, came in separately and held their broad shields in front of Kant.

They walked quickly in the alley and pushed open the golden wooden door with exquisite patterns.

Kant’s pupils instantly contracted.

“This…”

His words could not describe the terrifying scene he had seen so far.

It was really flooded with skeleton!

He felt the shock of that Rhodok sergeant.

The floor was covered in layers of skeletons. In the hall that was close to 2,000 square meters, there were broken bones everywhere.

Kant could even vaguely see that there should be more than ten rows of seats in the hall, but they were all submerged by these bones. The highest point was at the high platform at the end of the hall, where the skeletons were stacked up to nearly half a meter.

According to the estimation of these many skeletons, at least five thousand people died here to form this skeleton flood.

“This is a massacre.”

The mages opened their mouths slightly and said slowly, “The aura here is the cold remnants of the dead, with resentment and a curse on the living. Although it has been thousands or even tens of thousands of years, it still exists.”

“It’s really terrifying.”, Rhodok sergeants also whispered.

Nearly five thousand people were massacred in this hall. How could it not be terrifying?

They came from the Continent of Caradia.

Although the war was chaotic, there was definitely no massacre with such scale.

This was equivalent to a massacre of an entire city. It was a massacre on the level of genocide. This was a massacre that had rarely happened in the recorded history of Caradia.

Even in the world of “Wind of the War” where the Enfath Empire was located, a single massacre of 5,000 people could be said to be horrifying.

Now, the scene appeared in front of Kant.

He narrowed his eyes slightly and his expression calmed down.

It was not like he had never heard of the massacres of hundreds of thousands of people in his previous life.

Compared to the troop class that the system recruited, Kant, who had come from the real world, was undoubtedly more knowledgeable. It was just that when he suddenly saw a massacre of nearly 5,000 people, he felt a little uneasy. As he adjusted his mood, he quickly recovered.

“But it doesn’t matter.”

The mages opened their mouths and said calmly, “These skeletons have lost their souls, so there is no possibility of them becoming undead.”

Kant nodded, but his eyes looked forward.

“What is that, an… Old man?”

He looked straight at the end of the hall.

It was a stone platform half a meter tall, with a small idol placed there.

Linen and velvet pendants could be vaguely seen around it. As it had not been touched for thousands of years, although it was badly damaged, the mysterious divine patterns of the sun could still be seen on it.

In front of the statue was an old man sitting on a golden chair.

He was wearing a divine robe woven with golden threads. The patterns were more complicated than the woman in golden coffin in the relics. At the same time, a scepter made of gold was lying in his arms, and on his head was a golden crown.

There was no doubt that he was a superior.

“There is negative energy contained in it.”

The mage reminded, “Perhaps there is a little danger.”

“A little danger?”, Kant was satisfied with this word. “So there is no danger?”

“It is best to be careful.”, the mage said.

Kant looked at the old man with white eyebrows and beard, his face still calm.

Since there was a little danger, it meant that there was not much danger. Kant naturally would not be too nervous, but he would not let down his guard either. He turned to the Rhodok sergeants and said, “I need someone to investigate.”

“I’ll go!”

Without any hesitation, two Rhodok sergeants stood out and strode forward with wide shields that looked like tortoise shells on their backs.

They held their two-handed glaives and raised their arms parallel to each other. They aimed the pointed spear at the old man who was sitting on the golden chair and holding a golden scepter. They stepped on the layers of bones, accompanied by the cracking sound of the crushing bones, they slowly walked over.

Behind them, the other Rhodok sergeants raised their shields and carefully blocked Kant’s sides. Only the sturdy broad shields in their hands were the source of their peace of mind.

Another four Ravenstern rangers came in.

With serious expressions, they raised the heavy bows in their hands, nocked the arrows, and faintly aimed at the sitting old man.

They also felt uneasy.

The mages raised their staffs, and the few remaining magic balls were ready.

The two Rhodok sergeants slowly walked forward.

The sound of bones breaking could be heard continuously, and even under their feet, there was a faint blue light flickering among the skeletons. As they stepped on them, it slowly extinguished like a will-o’-the-wisp.

Thousands of years was really too long.

It was so long that even the undead would be annihilated.

However, when the two Rhodok sergeants were about to approach the stone platform, the heavy long glaives in their hands were less than two meters away from the old man’s corpse. Then, a cold golden light slowly appeared on the top of the stone platform.

It was like a willow catkin that was slowly falling, appearing above the old man’s head.

“Retreat! That’s a soul series spell!”

The mages beside Kant suddenly shouted.

And right at the stone platform, the Rhodok sergeants did not hesitate at all, they immediately turned around and ran back.

Although the broad shields on their backs were as troublesome as a turtle shell, they could completely block the enemy’s attack. Thus, these Rhodok sergeants dared to point their backs at the enemy. In fact, if they were to fight with their weapons in their hands, their backs were the area with the strongest defense!

Sometimes, when they were injured, in order to prevent their formation from being destroyed, they would turn their backs and use the broad shields on their backs as low walls to block the enemy’s attacks. The effect was very good.

However, the expected soul attack did not come.

The seven mages still had solemn expressions, as if they were facing a great enemy.

Kant looked at the stone platform.

The golden willow catkins fluttered in the wind, and the old man with white hair and beard made a slight movement.

The scepter made of gold was originally leaning against the old man’s chest. Now, it moved slowly along with his movements, as if it was trying to slip away and fall to the ground. The situation was urgent.

But just as it fell, an old hand full of wrinkles grabbed it.

“Human.”

The old man slowly raised his head, his tone was unfamiliar and indifferent.

He did not continue speaking after he spoke. Instead, he quietly pondered for three to five seconds before he raised his head again and looked at Kant, who was protected in the middle. “Human noble.”

“I am.”, Kant took a step forward, held his knight sword and asked, “How should I address you?”

“Lowly slave.”

However, the old man seemed to be enraged. His eyes turned gray, and his entire pale and wrinkled old face was filled with anger and rage. “Kneel down and salute me. Who allow you to look directly at me while standing? Look directly at the respected pope of the Sun God Sect!”

His anger seemed to communicate with the rules of the surroundings. The temperature rose slightly, and the dust on the walls in the surroundings kept falling down. The gold foil gave off a faint golden light, like a dazzling light, completely illuminating the hall.

However, a sinister wind blew through. With resentment and a vicious curse, it quickly circled the room.

Kant and the others could clearly feel that the temperature had fallen again after the rise. A faint wind blew past them, but more wind rushed toward the old man who called himself the pope, whistling and blowing up the clothes made of gold threads on his body.

At the same time, the grayness in the old man’s eyes became more and more obvious. He sat on the golden chair, he fell into a daze as if he was recalling something. “This is… Oh, it’s you… why did you… No… I remember… the final battle… The sanctuary was ambushed… the betrayal of mankind… the end of the entire era of the gods!”

He muttered slowly, and the grayness in his eyes became more and more obvious.

In the end, the golden light in his eyes completely disappeared.

The divine pattern of the sun between his brows turned from golden to blood-red, reflecting the dense blood vessels in his eyes. He looked at Kant and the others, his eyes filled with hatred. “Humans, traitors of the gods!”

“Whoosh, whoosh, whoosh –”

A scorching gale instantly surged.

The terrifying force instantly blew up a large number of skeletons in the hall.
