“Have you heard of the demon?”
“Nope. Never heard of it!”
“The kingdom of the Undead lies deep underground, and in the depths of the decaying marshes of the Andromeda Mountain, there is a demon who can bring the dead back to life! The demon can communicate with the undead and return their souls to their bodies! The demon breaks the rules of death and the gods, and if one signs a contract with him, one can trade hundreds of people’s lives for just one soul!”
A group of people were discussing this mysterious demon while gathered on the street. It was said that if you went through the decaying marshes and swamps while calling out the demon’s name, a headless Death Knight would come to meet you! Then, if you said your wish and offered adequate sacrifices, the Death Knight would satisfy your wishes!
“Has anyone ever made such a deal with this evil existence? Aren’t you afraid of being cursed by the gods?”
“I heard that the young master of the Viscount Ivar’s family did……”
Over the years, numerous stories had spread. These were tall tales that only served to further increase the terror that people had of the entire Andromeda Mountain area! Originally, the name of this mountain was attached to a sense of holiness, but now it only seemed to give one a gloomy and dark feeling.
In the dark snow cave, a large number of transformed skeleton soldiers were keeping guard. There were also Death Knights, which had transformed from ghouls, as well as strange beasts present.
The complex underground cave route was like a labyrinth, and in the central hall, just behind a cobweb of underground passages, Adenos was leaning over a table, grabbing a charcoal pen.
By the light of the steam lamp, he was reading the tactical deployment circle of witchcraft, which was made up of more than a dozen large scrolls. The ground was littered with innumerable research materials about necromancy, body remodeling, soul fire and the Philosopher’s Stone.
Adenos was so excited, his mind reeling with many thoughts at once……
The witchcraft tactical deployment circle of Philosopher’s Stone is amazing!
The soul and power have such commonalities!
I finally found the way to acquire mind power! ( B oxnovel.c om )
Adenos was modifying the tactical deployment circle. As his soul fire had originated from the combination of soul and the power of the Philosopher’s Stone, he was looking for a way to use this to transform other lives into the undead in batches.
Here, here, here, and here……These should be modified……
I don’t understand here. What is it for?
This is the place where the magic network is connected. Gah! It should be revised to devour the awarenesses of the living!
Adenos could not stop his brain from flitting to and fro with many thoughts. Finally, he created the desired witchcraft from the original tactical deployment circle of the Philosopher’s Stone.
“I’ll name this witchcraft the Song of the Undead!” Adenos declared with excitement.
Adenos threw away the pen, while sheepskin scrolls were gathering up automatically before his eyes, then instantly bound themselves together to become a thick book! Adenos waved, and a few big gold letters appeared on the newly created book’s leather cover. The letters read: “Book of the Undead.”
This book contained detailed records of the transformation of the undead and the creation of various undead creatures. It especially dedicated several chapters to the Song of the Undead, which was the most horrible witchcraft!
After adding information regarding Li Weisi’s Owl Knight Regiment, Adenos’ Ghoul regiment, and Adenos’ undead army, Adenos finally completed the Book of the Undead.
This made Adenos extremely proud. He had surpassed Li Weisi, as this achievement in witchcraft was far more outstanding than Li Wiesi’s!
I am the most powerful, and I am the real king of death!
I will control the world of death! Even among the Wizards, priests, Holy Knights, the Great Sage Anthony, Faros and even Maria, no one can beat me or control me, not even the gods!
Looking at his masterpiece, Adenos was fueled with infinite courage. He would not be afraid of anything anymore!
At this moment, what he had used to fear no longer existed. Now, he had regained his true identity.
—————–
As winter was approaching and snow covered the whole world, an orc Knight team from the north had just crossed the snow-covered swamps and reached the depths of Andromeda Mountain. A female knight, who was wearing a thick fur cloak outside her armor, rode through the snowy forests with her cavalry and arrived at a huge stone tablet.
A blood-red symbol was engraved on the huge stone tablet. When translated in the language of the Phinks, it meant death, which indicated that from here onward, all who passed this place would enter the world of death, and the living shall not be permitted to enter!
Delmedi had completely grown up. She was now a true female knight!
As her red cloak blew in the wind, the cavalry behind her were silent, awaiting her orders. Delmedi raised her hand and looked around. She then saw a strange horse that was rushing out of the forest amid the hazy snow.
It was a black horse that had a single horn on its forehead. This strange unicorn had been captured by Adenos in the depths of the decaying marshes. Adenos had then turned it into one of his undead minions.
Now, it was no longer holy. In its pupils, there was only darkness. As it ran, was wheezing, and its mouth was constantly emitting black flames. It looked like a tragic monster that was running out of hell!
She could now make out that a knight without a head was riding the unicorn! He was covered in rusted armor and carried a sharp sword. At his broken neck, where his head should have been, only a green flame shot forth!
Suddenly, Delmedi felt that the knight was very familiar. She looked closer, but couldn’t remember anything specific, so she asked, “Who are you?”
“I’m the Headless Knight. I see that you have the Ring of the Contract. Tell me your wish and offer me your sacrifices, then I’ll guide you.” The knight’s decapitated head, which had been apparently attached to the side of the unicorn all along, suddenly answered Delmedi!
