Main Volume Chapter 93: Agito's Conspiracy: Tide of the Dead
At this moment, Zhang Yun, who was mocking the "air", did not notice that there was a small red butterfly resting in the corner of the alley, staring at him motionlessly, like a statue made of specimens.
On the other side, on the top of a house in the alley, the Butterfly Twins were standing where they couldn't see Zhang Yun.
"is it him?"
"Yes, Yi Yu, we should go back and tell my sister about this!"
"good!"
"Let's go!"
After saying that, the two little girls’ bodies turned into countless butterflies, which flew into the sky and disappeared in the distance of the desert city.
The tiny butterfly also flapped its wings and turned into specks of white light, disappearing in the air without attracting any attention.
…
After being ambushed and killed by the Butterfly Twins, Zhang Yun tried to lure them out and find out why they attacked her.
Unfortunately, it did not succeed, and the two little girls did not even think of finishing off the victim or destroying the body.
So Zhang Yun immediately left the alley and shifted his attention to the followers who were protecting Lucina closely, as well as the followers hiding in the surrounding streets.
He found that the little girl was still lying on the bed in the hotel, leisurely reading her collection of ancient books, and the shrunken blue-feathered bird was standing on the shelf next to her.
No one bothered Lucina.
Only I was attacked.
In other words, the Butterfly Twins are simply coming for me, and they just want to kill me.
"Well……"
"Except Akito..."
"Have I ever offended any forces in this world..."
I can’t figure it out. There are too many secrets in this world and I have no idea at all.
So, Zhang Yun didn't think any more and rushed directly to the hotel where Lucina and the caravan were. On the way, he took out Lucina's necklace and changed his face to become that thirty-year-old uncle.
Originally, my identity was safer than that of the uncle who had shown his face in the underground arena...
But now, the identity of a 30-year-old uncle is much safer than my own identity...
This is outrageous...
In fact, according to the normal process, Zhang Yun should wait for the Butterfly Twins to completely leave, which takes almost a whole afternoon, before he will resurrect himself to ensure that his "resurrection" ability is not exposed.
Unfortunately, the sudden attack of the Butterfly Twins was too strange. Zhang Yun was worried that something might happen to Lucina, so she used the resurrection coin to be reborn.
But it doesn’t matter. The fact that the Butterfly Twins didn’t appear again means that they didn’t realize that they were alive again and thought they were already dead.
Even if they hadn't left at that time, with their acting skills and the rationality of their excuse, they should have been able to convince those two guys that their first round of attack didn't completely kill me.
What they killed was actually just one of my clones, and what reappeared was still my clone.
It seems that he can also pretend to be the ancient evil god.
Threaten them...
Well, there’s no point thinking too much. Anyway, this matter is over for the time being, and those two guys won’t appear again in the short term.
But I can't let my guard down either. I must have enough strength to protect myself before they find out that I'm not dead and launch the next round of enemy attacks!
The urgency of this matter even surpassed that of Akito who had lost track of Lucina...
Zhang Yun frowned: "It's really a long way to go, isn't it?"
Afterwards, Zhang Yun rushed back to the hotel and told Lucina the news that Ajid's lurking gang was preparing to attack the desert city. Before she could find the caravan on the other side, the gang members officially began to attack the city.
The first signal came from the mission assigned by Carl. The clock tower standing in the center of the city made a deafening noise, as if the C4 installed on it had exploded, and collapsed with a rumble, stirring up dust flying all over the sky.
Then, the gang members who were deployed in the streets and alleys threw the black magic stone into the "Dark Magic Stone Altar" according to the instructions. Just like dry ice meeting water, a large amount of black smoke emerged and filled the sky above the desert city.
The black smoke spread very quickly and completely submerged the entire city in just half a minute, forming a thick black rain cloud that dropped black rain with a strange smell.
At the same time, gang members who had been lying in ambush outside the city appeared collectively and surrounded the entire city tightly like an army attacking a city, leaving no gaps.
The Undead Gang, as its name suggests, is a large gang. Even if all its members join together, they do not have the ability to surround a city. However, relying on countless undead creatures, they can still surround a city.
Afterwards, after surrounding the city with tens of thousands of undead skeletons, the Undead Gang did not rush to attack, but waited for the black rain in the sky to get heavier and heavier, spreading to every corner of the city.
Once these black raindrops hit the ground, they do not form streams like normal rainwater, but instead merge into the ground without a drop left, turning normal soil into corrupt soil that can summon the undead.
Next, as long as these rotten soils are used to launch large-scale magic, that is, the combination skills in the game, an endless tide of undead can be summoned in the desert city, drowning everyone in the city...
"Come! Great Lord of Death! Karadboga! Let your loyal soldiers spread across the land! Destroy the enemies who dare to defy us!"
With the spell chanted by the leader of the Undead Gang and the assistance of all the necromancers lurking in the city, the large-scale magic "Sea of the Dead" was activated, and countless undead creatures crawled out from the streets and alleys.
"So!"
"The next thing to do is threaten that stupid boss in the desert city!"
"We can take this city without any trouble!"
"Hahaha!"
"Karl, you are the hero this time. If you hadn't made the dark magic stone altar and found the activation formula of the 'Sea of the Dead', we would have no chance of taking this city at such a small cost!"
The leader of the Undead Gang laughed loudly, patted Carl's shoulder, and asked happily: "Tell me! Apart from the position of the city lord, what do you want? I can give it to you!"
Karl smiled faintly: “Really?”
The leader of the Undead Gang hugged Carl and said without hesitation: "Of course, you are my most capable deputy. In the future, this gang will be handed over to you, my brother!"
Karl’s expression turned cold: “Then…I want your life!”
"Claw Slash!"
Carl's nails suddenly stretched out, like a monster, and pierced the belly of the Undead Gang leader who was close at hand. Then he turned around and summoned several magic attack items called "Spirit Orbs".
Spirit ball orb. Physical!
Bang! Bang! Bang! Bang! Bang! Bang!
The spirit orb smashed onto the surrounding members of the Undead Gang who were unable to react in time. These fragile "Necromancers" of the same profession could not withstand the powerful force at all, and were directly blown to pieces by the physical explosion it produced, dying beyond all possibility of death.
"Why are you……"
The leader of the Undead Gang was not dead yet, but he was not far from death. He was unwilling to accept this, so he asked.
Karl sneered: “Why?”
"Because I am not a follower of Karadboga at all. I am an ant-like existence, not even worthy of being a follower of our great master!"
"For all these years, I have been following you guys, helping you build such a powerful necromancer organization from a small gang of less than ten people. I have been waiting for this day to use you to complete the 'Sea of the Dead' ritual and turn everyone in the city into an army of undead!"
"Then attack that damn holy city!"
"Kill all the members of the Shensheng Cult!"
The leader of the Undead Gang was shocked and terrified: "What... attacking the Holy City... who are you..."
Carl retracted his claws and stared down at the leader of the Undead Gang, a sneer on his face: "Me? You should say we!"
"All right!"
"For the sake of our long acquaintance!"
"I'll tell you!"
Carl raised his chin proudly: "We are the wings, the wings of punishment that eliminate lies from the world. We are————Agito!"
"Well, let 's fall into the abyss of despair!"
The leader of the Undead Gang was in a panic: "Ajide...you...can't kill me yet! Without me here! You can't control these undead!"
Karl sighed: "Still struggling to death? There's nothing I can do! I'll tell you the truth!"
"Whether it's the Dark Magic Stone Altar or the method to activate the Sea of the Dead, I gave them to you!"
"That is to say, these things are controlled by me, and I can use them to control your army of undead!"
"At the same time, as long as I kill you casters, not only will I be able to gain complete control over the undead army, but your corpses will also be transformed into high-level undead, under my command, and increase the strength of the undead army several times."
"Didn't expect that?"
"Jellis, you have driven undead creatures for most of your life, and after you die you will become an undead creature, the kind of existence you despise the most."
“How pathetic!”
"I didn't intend to tell you this cruel truth..."
After saying that, Carl shook his head, said no more, and stepped directly on Jellis' chest, squeezing out the last of his vitality.
"So……"
"The next step is to kill everyone in the city!"
"All transformed into undead creatures!"
"Then lead this army to the Holy City, join forces with the companions hiding in the other three cities, and attack the Holy City together to pave a perfect way for the Master's arrival..."
Carl snapped his fingers, and all the dark magic stone altars exploded collectively. The liquid inside evaporated instantly, and the bodies of all the necromancers lying on the ground began to transform into a new and powerful undead creature.
At the same time, the dark magic stone altar and the black magic stone stored in Zhang Yun's backpack self-destructed, and a system prompt popped up, telling him what had happened.
[Warning! Akito uses the "Sea of the Dead" combo! The dead tide is coming! ]
[Hint: The dark magic stone altar has self-destructed because the ritual has ended! ]
[Hint: The Dark Advanced Magic Stone has self-destructed because the ritual has ended! ]

…
Going out on a mission?
Damn, the rewards are so rich, there are even production drawings of genuine restraining weapons?
Isn't this forcing me to fight?
However, according to the mission description, this matter is related to Akito...
Zhang Yun was a little hesitant. He didn't want to get involved in the Undead Gang's siege. In addition to the reasons mentioned before, it was also because of the Ajid named "Carl" he met.
He and Lucina had finally escaped the pursuit of these monsters and could travel boldly. Now, in order to stop a group of murderous thugs from killing each other, he had to expose himself and Lucina to Ajid... Isn't this asking for trouble?
So, after careful consideration, Zhang Yun made the decision to "ignore the gangs attacking the city" and planned to leave here immediately.
But now Ajid "Carl" suddenly jumped out and changed the plan from "siege" to "massacre". He also wanted to transform all the people in the city into undead creatures to form a super army of more than 100,000 people.
Although it is not mentioned in the mission description...
But Zhang Yun could guess that Ajid had created such a large army of undead, not just to play in the mud in the desert...
It must rely on the army to fight something, and it will be a very difficult enemy...
Otherwise, why would you do it so drastically?
If you just kill everyone in a city, aren't you afraid that Ajid's existence will be exposed and then besieged by countries all over the world?
Therefore, Zhang Yun felt that since these guys had made such a big move, they must be attacking the most dangerous existence for them - the holy city of the Divine Life Sect!
"Well, since they are going to attack our potential ally, and those cultists know the whereabouts of the Dragon Diamond, I can't just leave it alone!"
"Even if it means that I and Lucina are exposed near the Holy City and are located and hunted down by Ajid again, it's worth it!"
"The trouble is..."
"I wonder if the Butterfly Twins will appear again..."
"Their fighting power is too strong. If they join forces with Ajith to attack me, I will definitely not be able to escape..."
