MTL - For Thousands of Years, My Weakest Brother Has Become a Demon King (1000 Years Later, Even My Weakest Follower Has Become A Demon King)-Chapter 63 Aftermath of the Undead

   Chapter 63 Aftermath of the Undead

  Everything seems to be a repeat of the ending of the tide of the dead in the rotten moon more than a thousand years ago. The main body of the ceremony of the Eternal Gift was destroyed, and the steady stream of necromantic magic power that led from the Astral World to the present world was cut off.

   It’s just that this time it ended too quickly and too quickly, and the crisis was resolved by unexpected factors while it was still in its infancy.

  The vast majority of the corpses in the depths of the cemetery have not even been awakened, and some may have just trembled slightly before returning to eternal silence.

   But that doesn’t mean this crisis is completely over.

   Those corpses who have been awakened and ignited by the fire of their souls will not be silent, they will continue to wander aimlessly in this land until the magic power that surrounds them is completely exhausted.

  Without the influence of external forces, this process can take at least a year and a half, and at most it may take ten years.

   And those who are not bound will attack the living out of instinct, so it can be expected that the Great Cemetery of Thorns City will become a dangerous forbidden place for a long time in the future.

   Of course, the premise is that if it is handed over to the current Rose Palace government to handle it by itself.

  The influence of the Church of the Holy Spirit in Blackwater Province fell to a low point during the reign of Duke Simon, and there are even only two churches in the huge city of Thorns.

   Among them, the funeral church of the seventh Holy Spirit "dead" was closed under the pressure of the Duke more than ten years ago on the grounds that it did not conform to the ancestor worship tradition of Blackwater Province.

   Now, if you search the entire city of Thorns, you may not be able to find twenty baptized Requiem masters.

   Relying on them to appease the undead who have been awakened is nothing but a drop in the bucket.

   What's more, there is a more urgent crisis imminent.

Although the walls of the cemetery are strong enough, and the [Appease the Undead] and [Life Barrier] spells engraved on them are worthy of the huge amount of Elementium Silver resources they consume, they did not let the awakened undead destroy the cemetery. The fence is broken.

   But still a certain number of undead groups piled up high walls and climbed out of the cemetery.

   And this "certain number" is relative to the total number of tens of millions of dead bodies in the cemetery.

   So to be specific, about 50,000 undead broke through the barrier of the cemetery, and instinctively marched towards the city of thorns not far away, which was full of life.

  50,000 tireless souls, ignoring life and death, longing for the flesh and blood of the living.

   "Let the scouts go out of the city and notify all the villages near the city of thorns to pay attention to the scattered small clusters of undead, and then let the black guards of thorns strengthen the security of those villages."

   "Evacuate all the people of the mills, stables, and caravans outside the city along the way, and let them all withdraw to the city of thorns for safety, and let the magic swordsman troops ensure the safety along the way."

   "Have you contacted the gravekeeper? No? Then continue to contact them. They are equipped with undead shielding runes, so they won't be wiped out so quickly. If they are in contact, let them place space beacons."

   "Notify all the war mages in the Mage Hall to gather at the North Gate within ten minutes, yes, just a notification, no order."

   The clerk who was constantly in charge of recording the summons interrupted Vincent who was constantly giving orders, sweating profusely.

   "Master Vincent, should we wait for Lord Simon to discuss this with him first, especially when it comes to the transfer of the Demon Swordsmen troops and the Black Guard of Thorns, Lord Duke has always been very..."

  Vincent, as Simon's chief advisor and the leader of the Mage Hall, can indeed exercise power temporarily when Duke Simon is away. But at the same time, he sent orders to the guards, scouts, black guards of thorns, magic swordsmen, tomb guards, and the hall of the mage at the same time, which would inevitably make people feel too... arrogant.

  Although it is indeed in an emergency situation, the city of Thorns has a very complete defense facility. There are only tens of thousands of mindless undead. As long as the suspension bridge is raised and the city gate is closed, it is enough to block them from the outside. And when they are hopeless for a long time, they will naturally spread out to find other living beings.

   In contrast, if he really followed Vincent's order, he wouldn't be able to explain it when Duke Simon came back.

   But Vincent just glanced at him and said lightly:

   "You just need to obey my orders, and no one will trouble you because of this afterwards."

   The electric light flashing in the eyes of the well-known "Scorch Sage" made the secretary sweat cold, and he could only bite the bullet and nod his head.

   Won't anyone get in trouble? is it possible? Even if the order was correct, the duke would agree with it afterwards, but could it be the same as ordering it in person and ordering it over him?

   This is terrible... When the Duke comes back, I guess I will get out of my bed completely and be sent to a mine as a supervisor.

   But then again, where did Duke Simon go, at this juncture, the entire Rose Palace can't find anyone else, it's really dying...

   "Also, help me contact the Bishop of St. Dewey's Church and let him also..."

   didn't care about the tangled expression on the other party's face, Vincent continued.

   "No need to notify, I'm already here."

   A mellow voice came from outside the door.

   A middle-aged man walked in from outside the hall. He was wearing a gray coarse cloth robe and had a golden seven-pointed star on his chest. He nodded slightly when he saw Vincent, and Vincent returned the same salute.

   "Do you have any clues about what's going on at the moment? The news I received here is that the tide of undead broke through from the cemetery, which is like..."

  Without politeness and greetings, the bishop asked directly.

  Vincent didn't make a sound, but first waved to the clerk to step down, and then said after he was far away:

   "Yes, you guessed it right, Tide of the Rotten Moon Undead."

   "So, what about Duke Simon?"

   Bishop's words are more like confirmation than doubt.

   "It's already under the Holy Sepulcher."

   A cold female voice came from the side, and the bishop turned his head and saw a tall, blond-haired woman walking out of the servant's room next to him.

   She was dressed in the costume of a maid of the Rose Palace, with a silver icon of Kane hanging on her chest, and her expression was extremely indifferent at this time.

   "Nezmaar? But how is that possible, you shouldn't be going now... What's the matter with your outfit?"

   Bishop asked in surprise.

   "That's not me, I was locked up in the Nightmare Swamp a month ago, and I've been living in a sticky nightmare all this time, spit... disgusting."

  Nezmar said and held the silver icon of Kane on her chest, which seemed to be her subconscious habit.

   Bishop's gaze turned to Vincent again.

   "Someone rescued her from the Nightmare Swamp, and the one you had contact with before was disguised by a moon monster."

   Vincent replied.

   "Who? Who has the ability to go to the Moon Realm to save people?"

   asked the bishop suspiciously.

   After asking this question, Nezemar held the icon of Kane in his hand even harder, while Vincent said with a look of awe:

   "A name you wouldn't believe."
