Translator: Nyoi-Bo Studio Editor: Nyoi-Bo Studio

Some people in the city were discussing the recent construction program.

“What is this for?”

“I heard they’re renovating the square!”

“And the sewers, all of which need to be dredged!”

“Ah, they were built more than a hundred years ago. Should they be dredged now?”

“But, it makes sense. We are getting more and more people in Danello. The original sewers are not modern enough. When floods and storms come, they do not work. So, it should be sorted out properly.”

Underneath the Governor’s House, a huge hole was excavated and then set up as an altar. This hole was then covered with stones that had been infused with witchcraft.

The entirety of the whole underground space was covered with one sheet of strong rock, making it impenetrable. Then, a large number of witchcraft and alchemy materials were placed in its center. There were also many fragments of the Philosopher’s Stone placed within it, which were the main nodes of the Song of the Undead tactical deployment circle.

Adenos had finally reached an agreement with Delmedi. However, Adenos harbored evil intents and Delmedi never intended to fulfill her promise. Hence, they were both lying.

Adenos had said that. since the queen had been dead for a long time, they needed to set up an altar to bring back her soul. He then requested that the rich people of Danello and Delmedi collect a large number of witchcraft materials.

In the underground altar, there was a coffin that was made of ice, in which a young werewolf-like lady slept. She looked exactly like the original April from the Amos Icefield.

This was the body that Adenos had recreated in order to win Delmedi’s trust. All he had to do was to revive Queen April!

A large number of craftsmen were gathered beneath the Governor’s House. Under Adenos’ orders, they laid out the complex and dizzying tactical deployment circle of the Song of the Dead in the underground of Danello bit by bit.

Although everyone was curious about the eccentric guy who covered himself with a hood, since it was an order from the Governor’s House, they still obeyed.

“There are deviations in the nodes here, which must be repaired!”

“Not here. The angle is three degrees off!”

“Are the materials I asked for in place yet?”

“You fools, you did this wrong. It’s going in the opposite direction!”

Adenos was shouting out instructions right and left. Many laborers and farmers were called up to help with the effort, and a large amount of supplies were ordered.

They began in the cold winter, and were able to complete this underground sewer system by the time the warm and rainy spring had passed. They even built a bunch of smaller canalways amid the underground labyrinth. Thus, a complex canal system was formed beneath the ground of Danello.

The sewer system had a three-dimensional structure, which was divided into several layers. If there was a mentor of the wizard tower, he or she would find this structure very familiar.

Adenos had buried a skull that was burning with soul fire at the core of every node, and a large number of soul fires connected with each other. Thus, awarenesses and mind powers were connected together to form a huge mind power force field.

Delmedi stood in front of the altar and looked at her mother in the ice coffin. She was so excited.

Adenos stood beside the altar in a black robe. The miserable green flames in his skull seemed to jump out of his eyes with joy, and his mouth opened to the utmost extent as he said, “It will be ready in a minute! As long as we finish the last step correctly, we can resurrect the queen!”

Adenos was not allowed to go anywhere except this underground altar, where he could be constantly watched. Delmedi thought that, under such close guard, Adenos could not fool her.

Plus, all of the knights and members of the Faith of the Sun in the city were watching him closely as well, so even if Adenos wanted to do something evil, Delmedi thought that she could easily handle him.

“The body is ready, so all that is left is to recall Queen April’s soul from the underworld. Your Highness Delmedi, may I begin?” Adenos asked Delmedi.

Delmedi looked at the guards behind her and nodded. Immediately, the guards retreated to the rear.

Adenos then stood in front of the ice coffin, then brushed his fingers over the Philosopher’s Stones on the ground, which immediately lit up with green flames.

Seven Philosopher’s Stones were lit, one by one, Adenos’ hands trembling all the while. The fire in his skull kept surging, and his jaw was constantly shaking.

“Hahah!” As he approached the last stone, Adenos could not help but laugh. It was as if he was scorning and mocking everything in the world!

Adenos looked back at Delmedi, his mouth open wide. He then said, “Here it i! The moment to witness a miracle!”

“No, what are you doing? Stop, stop!” Suddenly, Delmedi had a bad feeling, like a premonition of death.

Delmedi wanted to stop Adenos, but at this time, the green flames suddenly shot forward and covered Adenos’ whole body. At the same time, a powerful force hit everyone, knocking them all to the edge of the underground altar.

As the soul fire in the central altar ignited, the soul fire skeleton in the nodes of the whole underground of Danello responded instantly. This surge caused the mind power to continue to spread along the tactical deployment circle, from the foot of Adenos to the whole city, forming into a beautiful geometric structure. This was the largest tactical deployment circle of witchcraft since that had ever existed!

A huge three-dimensional tactical deployment circle now covered the whole city of Danello. As it was late at night and the moon was obscured by dark clouds in the sky, a ray of light that could only be sensed by the mind power rushed straight into the sky and spread out, covering all of Danello City.

Countless people in the city woke up in an instant, all of them feeling that their hearts were being pulled by something fierce. It was as if they were being taken hold of by death!

“What happened?”

“I suddenly got a bad feeling!”

“Why is the child crying all of a sudden?”

“Tonight’s moon and stars are hidden!”

People in Danello were all gripped by fear and were yelling in a frenzied panic. Lights on the streets lit up, one after another. No one understand what had happened, but everyone felt out of breath and their hearts seemed to be beating out of their chests.

At this time, the miserable green flames suddenly rose from everyone’s body, entwining everyone with their evil green glow. All of the people in the city were then transformed into soul fires, and their awarenesses were immediately taken away.

Everyone panicked and tried to escape, causing the streets to become crowded with people. But, before anyone could get away, their awarenesses flew out of them. As such, nothing but dead bodies were left on the ground.

There were sounds of screaming and of people getting trampled all over the city streets. All the while, a strange flame rose to the sky and locked onto the mind power force field of the Song of the Dead.

The whole mind power force field then pooled its force to draw out all of the people’s awarenesses, while hundreds of thousands of people continued to die and countless soul fires rose to the sky like sky lamps and stars.

“What on earth did you do? Stop it!” Delmedi attacked Adenos in a frenzy, but the force field that was above the altar protected him from her. She could not get close to Adenos at all.

The knights around her kept falling down as well, their corpses now lying everywhere within the underground labyrinth. Although there were no scars on their bodies, they had no breath left within them.

Suddenly, Delmedi found that her power was gradually weakening and her awareness was declining. It was as if there was a strange force that was devouring her power and constantly wearing down her awareness and strength.

Adenos floated in the flames, then looked down at Delmedi and laughed proudly. “The dead are singing! This is the Song of the Dead! Look! Isn’t that beautiful? Isn’t it such a great honor to witness this moment?”

Delmedi looked at the madman. Her eyes were red and she was completely overwhelmed by anger. She felt as if her chest was about to explode. As she looked around her, she realized that the whole underground had been frozen into ice, but Adenos wes free from it!

“You b*stard, I’m going to kill you!” Delmedi said.

Adenos ignored Delmedi and spread out his hands. The green flames danced around him, and the whole mind power force field of the Song of the Dead began to fold in an instant.

All of the soul fires then flew to Adenos, who said, “Come on! Let’s celebrate the Birth of the King of the Dead together!”

Adenos then opened his mouth and swallowed hundreds of thousands of people’s awarenesses. Above the altar, countless soul fires converged into a long light river and approached Adenos. This river contained hundreds of thousands of people’s personalities and awarenesses, as well as Adenos’ own personality. They had all been assimilated, leaving only one single faith....Death!

All of a sudden, the awarenesses and personalities disappeared. The King of the Dead, which had been the catalyst for bringing together the awarenesses of hundreds of thousands of people, was thus born! Adenos had just surpassed the Level 4 before this, yet he had now reached Level 7!

Instantly, Adenos’ whole body was deified, then scattered into sprays of lights that immediately reintegrated themselves into a huge skeleton. Black bone armor and bone spurs grew out of his body, which made him look extremely ferocious.

Then, his original miserable green flame became a deep purple color. It was now clear that an extreme strong force and mind power had seized control of the city of Danello, as a true Level 7 creature had appeared!

“Death! It’s the ultimate destination of everything in the world!” Adenos roared.

With a wave of the bone palm, the whole altar and the Governor’s House were directly turned upside down. The ground was lifted, and several nearby streets were turned over, revealing the underground below.

Numerous soul fires were emitted, and a large number of people who had died in the city stood up and were transformed little by little. As a large number of ghouls, skeletons, and Death Knights continued to stand up from the ground, their skin and flesh constantly fell off or turned into leather-like corpse skin.

The undead filled the streets and alleys of the whole city. Delmedi stood up amid the rubble and looked at her beloved city of Danello.

At this moment, this prosperous city, known as the trading capital and the pearl of sea, had been completely turned into a city of the dead. There was no more laughter, only the singing and crying of the dead.

As the roars of hundreds of thousands of the undead rose, even the sky itself seemed to be shaking. At this time, a corpse dragon flew down from under the clouds, and the King of the Dead took the reins, then roared into the sky upon it.

“Did I really cause all of this?” Delmedi stood among the ruins of the Governor’s House with a miserable grin.

She couldn’t believe that the whole city of Danello had turned into a city of the dead. She knelt down on the ground, feeling that all of her strength and even her will to leave had left her.

“Sorry, sorry! Mother, father, I am sorry! I am the worst sinner in the entire Empire!” Delmedi’s eyes were full of tears, and she looked desperate and sad.

At this time, from the hillside of the ruins, the Headless Knight charged forth, riding a monster. He was wearing armor and leading an army of countless undead beings.

“Headless Knight, Dragon Controller Rooney Elvis! Did you come to take my life? Do you want revenge, too? I’m ready!” Delmedi then picked up a sword on the ground and fought with the Headless Knight.

Numerous undead beings rushed to the ruins and were constantly torn apart by Delmedi, their discarded bodies forming a high mountain of corpses. Even though Delmedi was able to defeat these beings, they also wounded her and zapped her of her strength.

Thus, at dawn, Delmedi died of exhaustion among the ruins!
