“Hey, did you hear that? The kingdom’s strongest genius, Watson, brought the Astrologer, the Sword Saint, and the border count to the palace to resurrect the late Queen!”

“I heard about it, but I also heard that the former Queen did not die. During the Demoness Church’s incident, she was severely injured and imprisoned by His Majesty.”

“But the former Queen was the Demoness Church’s Saintess; didn’t she do many evil deeds? Why would she be resurrected? Is it because we lost the protection from the seven gods, and now we need the Saintess’ protection? That would be too terrible.”

“Shut up. That is the royal family’s matter. You shouldn’t discuss it too openly. You’re too bold.”

A storm was quickly stirred in the royal palace due to Watson’s arrival.

The former Queen’s name, Avril, had always been taboo in the royal palace because of her evil deeds. She had controlled the Demoness Church to bewitch the people and even threatened the royal family’s safety. That was why the King killed her; there was no funeral for her. There were even rumors that Avril would kill her maids if she were not happy. She would even kill some small animals for experiments.

Many people in the palace were worried about her resurrection.

“Sylvan, you brought Watson to the palace so soon after you left. I said that I had a way to resurrect Avril. Do you not trust me?”

As the rumors spread in the palace, King Landhar III brought Queen Isabella to the palace gate to welcome Watson and the others. He said it with a sour expression.

Even Isabella’s eyes were also red as if she had just cried. Her eyes were filled with hatred as she looked at Watson.

“Frier, cut the crap. Take us to the place where my sister is buried! Watson has already promised to help me resurrect her. I believe in him, so I don’t need you.” He turned his head away from King Landhar III.

King Landhar III snorted coldly. “Hmm, there are quite many people here. Well, since Watson is confident in resurrecting Avril, I’ll take you there.”

The King led Watson and the others through the many gardens in the palace. They came to the deepest part of the garden, where a large area of pansies bloomed.

King Landhar III clapped his hands; the ground split open, and zombies crawled out from under the ground one after another. Their bodies were covered in rotten blood and flesh, and they let out hollow roars. The sight of their mangled bodies made everyone feel nauseous. Isabella even retched twice; her face was pale.

Watson’s face was also pale. Some of those zombies seemed to have just died, and there were thousands of them. It was not easy to find so many fresh corpses in the capital during peacetime, but it was not hard to imagine what King Landhar III had done to get them.

A cold light flashed in his eyes. He saw a transparent crystal coffin rising from the ground, surrounded by zombies. Inside the coffin lay a platinum-haired Elven girl with translucent skin. She seemed to be sleeping soundly.

“Watson, do you need me for anything when you resurrect later? No matter what you need, just tell me. I’ll do my best to help you.”

Sylvan clenched his fists as he looked at the girl in the coffin; he had spoken with a pained expression.

“I don’t need help. Resurrecting a person is quite easy for me.”

Watson smiled. He extended his hand toward Avril, who was in the coffin. “Fusion system, activate.”

“What did Watson say just now? Is resurrecting a person so easy?”

Whispers could be faintly heard from the surroundings. There was not only King Landhar III but also the guards responsible for guarding the place. Initially, the guards were not allowed to enter that place. Still, after Watson publicly announced that he would resurrect Avril, everyone in the palace knew that she was buried in the garden. That secret could no longer be hidden, so King Landhar III did not bother to do that anymore.

The guards did not believe Watson’s words because no one had even resurrected the dead before. No matter how strong a person was, they would not survive the baptism of time unless they consumed water from the Spring of Life like Antonio did. However, even Antonio was gradually aging, he was no longer as young as he was.

Resurrection—that had always been a forbidden area of magic. Only necromancers who studied the dead souls and corpses knew about it. However, the way necromancers controlled corpses could not be called resurrection.

Watson was the strongest genius in the kingdom, but talent and power did not mean that he could touch the forbidden area of life.

Under the doubtful gazes of the crowd, Watson’s voice fell, and the roaring zombies turned into rays of light and intertwined with each other. The corpses turned into a short figure. Other than her skin color, which was close to cyan, she looked exactly like a human. There was a magic circle on her face, and her eyes were red. She seemed very magical.

“What’s going on? Is Queen Avril really resurrected?”

“No, that’s not the Queen. What is that?”

Everyone was confused as they watched the green-skinned young girl in front of Watson. Even King Landhar III’s eyes flickered.

Avril was still in the crystal coffin with her eyes closed. On the contrary, the thousands of zombies around her had disappeared. Watson had resurrected a single person.

[Congratulations, Master, for successfully fusing thousands of low-tier zombies. You have obtained a platinum-tier creature, the King of Zombies.]

[Platinum-level creature: King of Zombies.]

[Abilities: Fatal Infection (able to spread toxins through the blood and infect others into zombies), Zombie Control (able to control all zombies and master the ability to control zombies), Death Plague (able to spread a wide range of colorless and odorless toxins), Immortal Body (able to heal even if the body is cut into pieces), Pain Loss, Super Physical Immunity, Super Magic Immunity.]

[Additional ability: Unstable Evolution (temporarily increases the amount of poison in the body, significantly strengthening the body’s size and ability, obtaining random ability).]

Watson looked at the zombie girl in front of him and nodded in satisfaction. “Not bad. Those thousands of corpses are better off becoming my power than living as zombies.”

When he saw those zombies, he could feel the pain from the remaining consciousness of those zombies. His fusion system was just enough to help them escape, and as the pain dissipated, it was replaced by gratitude.

After appreciating his own work and feeling the strange gazes from all directions, Watson looked around and scratched his head. “Why are you all looking at me like that?”

“Watson, what are you doing? Is that what you meant by resurrecting Avril?” King Landhar III’s tone was terse, and his tone was filled with apparent dissatisfaction.

“I’m just cleaning up the zombies around us. Don’t worry.”

“Watson, whatever happens to those zombies, hurry up.”

They were speechless. They brought Watson there to resurrect Avril, not to deal with the zombies.

“Yes, I will start the process now.”

Watson’s expression became serious. He extended his right hand toward the crystal coffin where Avril was lying again.

“Fusion system, activate.”
