Chapter 174: Undead Zombie King

The victor was decided, and the tense situation quickly eased.

Under Arthas’s command, the Holy Knights put away their Angel War Pets. Thinking of their slain partners, the Black Dragons glared angrily, but without orders, no one dared to make a move. Under the command of the Fairy Dragon, they had to make way.

“Miss Dora, thank you!”

Arthas greeted her and led his people away quickly.

In the battle with the guardian Black Dragons, the Glory Knights and Angel War Pets lost almost one-third of their numbers, but not a trace of sadness or anger could be seen on his face; his face was as cold and indifferent as ever. In the eyes of these killing machines, there were only orders and obedience. No matter how many ordinary Faith-guarding Knights died, it was just a string of numbers to them.

The group moved very fast; in the blink of an eye, they turned into small black dots and disappeared into the gloomy, vast valley.

Watching their figures disappear quickly, Elder Cardino still hated them enough to grit his teeth. “Miss Dora, just let them in like this?”

“If we don’t let them in, do we have to kill them all here? Let alone the ordinary people, for those four Demi-god Strongers, do we rely on you, an old dragon, or just me alone to keep them here?”

Fairy Dragon Dora shook her head and asked the unwilling Elder Cardino in return. Then she continued, “Cardino, I know you are unwilling, but there is no way around it. During this time, more and more people are pouring into the Dragon’s Grave, and even more people will break in next. Among them are quite a few Demi-god Strongers, and even strongers who have cultivated to the Demi-god Peak. We cannot block them with the remaining Guardian Dragon Clan. The only way is to simply let them in!”

“Miss Dora, do you mean to let them kill each other?” Elder Cardino’s eyes lit up, then he frowned. “But, the seal on the Primordial Heavenly Dragon King’s skeleton is about to collapse. At this time, if too many strong enemies rush in, will it…?”

“Cardino, you still don’t understand. The true strong enemies, the purpose of sneaking into the Dragon’s Grave is the Primordial Heavenly Dragon King’s skeleton that is about to be unearthed. Do you think that the Divine Court’s Previous Saintess, Flochra, sneaked into the Dragon’s Grave just to heal and cultivate here?” The Fairy Dragon flipped onto the huge Black Dragon, her face cold. “From today on, our strategy for guarding the Dragon’s Grave has completely changed. Before, no outsiders were allowed to enter; now, it is changed to no one allowed to leave. Entry is allowed, but exit is forbidden. The Dragon’s Grave is not a paradise, but a hunting ground for our Dragon Clan. Those who don’t want to live, let them all come in!”

After conveying the order, the Fairy Dragon did not delay any longer. She rode the huge Black Dragon and left quickly. The Black Dragon under her spread its huge wings and flapped hard, quickly disappearing at the horizon.

“Allowed in but not out?”

Cardino muttered to himself. After a long while, he summoned all the Black Dragons patrolling the periphery and shut themselves on Hei Mu Ya, waiting for the time to strike.

The Dragon’s Grave is a Forbidden Land on the Wasteland. At the same time, it is also a treasured land left over from ancient times, burying many unknown treasures. Without the deterrence of the Black Dragons on the periphery, he could not imagine how many Demon Hunters would sneak in after hearing the news; but he could be sure that the vast majority of Demon Hunters would never return!

Cardino was full of confidence in the Primordial Heavenly Dragon residing in secret. No one knew better than him, an outer Elder, what kind of power the Dragon Clan’s Racial Divine Realm, the Dragon Domain, had deployed inside the Dragon’s Grave.

Just like before, Hu Feng kept his true strength hidden and kept a low profile, watching more and speaking less, letting Lupus pull him forward. Different from before, there were obviously more Glory Knights crowding around him, and they even slowed down their steps without leaving a trace to wait for him to catch up. After the battle with the Black Dragons, the cold-blooded Arthas chilled the hearts of the knights. Hu Feng, who stepped forward at the critical moment and saved people from a tragic battle, naturally won the favor of the people.

Originally, people were quite sympathetic towards Hu Feng, this sacrificed Divine Official; now, they spontaneously took on the heavy responsibility of guarding him, lest he die innocently on the dangerous Wasteland.

“Lord, you really scared us to death back there. We thought a fight to the death with the Black Dragons was unavoidable!” The tall and burly Lupus followed Hu Feng closely, recalling the hundreds of Fifteenth Step Black Dragons surrounding them, still having lingering fears.

This mission was extremely dangerous; if possible, not a single Glory Knight wanted to participate. After witnessing the coldness of Arthas, the captain of the Angel Squad, their hearts couldn’t help but feel even colder. They didn’t say it out loud, but everyone understood in their hearts that they were also cannon fodder that could be sacrificed at any time.

“Actually, I really don’t know how to play chess. Winning against that Fairy Dragon this time was pure luck!”

Hu Feng looked sincere, but unfortunately, the Glory Knights crowding around him obviously didn’t believe it. They all had smiles on their faces, genuinely happy, following Hu Feng, this Judgment Divine Official, and spontaneously uniting together. This was not an order between superiors and subordinates, but a spontaneous reliance of the soul.

Humans are social creatures. When encountering danger, they naturally seek reliance and protection from each other and unite together. The Glory Knights who had cultivated to the Saint Domain Peak were no exception.

Arthas, from the Bright Summit, was cold, arrogant, and unscrupulous in his actions. Prinhus, carrying the Blade of Doomsday on his back, was nominally the Commander of the group, but for some reason, he always maintained an attitude of staying out of it; he didn’t say a word along the way, and seemed indifferent to the life and death of the Glory Knights. Unknowingly, the knights regarded Hu Feng, who stepped forward at the critical moment, as a spiritual reliance.

Slowly, the group split into two camps. The Angel Squad led by Arthas rushed far ahead. The three Demi-god Strongers, Prinhus, Moratti, and Reynard, who originally guarded the Holy Bead together, followed far behind, while the numerous Glory Knights crowded around Hu Feng at the very back.

“Lord Hu Feng, when you were at the Bright Summit, did you ever see Flochra, the Previous Saintess? How powerful is she really?” After getting familiar with each other, a big-headed knight asked Hu Feng softly, looking around in panic while asking. He was bigger and stronger than a bull, with a huge head, but his courage was disproportionately small compared to his head.

After the battle at Saintess Peak, the news that the Previous Saintess, Flochra, had fallen into darkness quickly spread to the Glory Castle. In a short time, countless versions circulated. Some said that Flochra, the Previous Saintess, had only fallen in body, but her Soul was still holy, waiting for brave knights to save her; some said that she had completely fallen into an evil Great Demon Head, specializing in sucking the blood of Faith-guarding Knights and believers, becoming a bloodthirsty demon; others said that she wore a Nun’s robe during the day and was a holy Angel, but at night she was an evil Great Demon Head, wearing sexy and revealing clothes, going to remote Monasteries to seduce handsome Faith-guarding Knights…

“I’ve seen her, of course I’ve seen her. Her Great Prophecy Technique is unstoppable. If she says your little JJ can’t get hard for the rest of your life, you’ll have to be a eunuch forever!”

Looking at the cowardly big-headed knight beside him, Hu Feng rolled his eyes, provoking a burst of loud laughter. Flochra, the Previous Saintess, had been sealed under Saintess Peak tens of thousands of years ago. Let alone him, a fake Divine Official who had never been to the Bright Summit, even if he had gone, it would have been impossible to see her!

“Lord Hu Feng, I heard that you used to be a Bard?” The big-headed knight smiled sheepishly and brought up another topic.

“Idiot, that was preaching. Be careful or I’ll sue you for slander! Slandering a Judgment Divine Official is enough to have you tied up, your pants taken off, and beaten with three hundred big boards!”

Hu Feng shook his head. Just as he was about to say something, suddenly, his brow twitched, and he sensed a strong danger. Subconsciously raising his hand, the Glory Knights crowding around him all stopped and formed a tight circular defensive formation. Before the puzzled knights could ask, a faint rustling sound suddenly came from the darkness. Following that, a large group of Zombie Warriors suddenly appeared in front of them, heavily surrounding everyone. The Angel Squad walking in front also fell into a heavy siege. There were Zombie Warriors everywhere, as if they had stepped right into their lair.

Different from ordinary Zombie Warriors, the Zombie Warriors in front of them were extremely fast and agile, their speed no less than an Eighth Step Vampire Warrior. After raising their heads and roaring, they surged over like a tide, launching fearless attacks on the people. In terms of one-on-one combat, they were far from being opponents of the knights who had cultivated to the Saint Domain Peak; but they won in numbers, impossible to kill completely, and tightly surrounded the people.

As soon as they stepped into the Dragon’s Grave, people felt an invisible and powerful pressure. Even a Demi-god Stronger found it difficult to fly and could only walk on the ground. Suddenly falling into the siege of a large group of mutated Zombie Warriors, people couldn’t rush out at all; fortunately, Hu Feng reminded them in time, otherwise, if they were divided and surrounded, it would be dangerous.

“Everyone, gather towards me immediately!”

Arthas gave an order in a deep voice and drew his sharp sword to charge forward. Wherever he went, the agile mutated Zombie Warriors fell one after another, invincible. The many Holy Knights behind him waved their hands to summon large groups of Archangels. In an instant, the Holy Light shone brightly, and wisps of black smoke rose from the Zombie Warriors who had no time to dodge. Taking advantage of the chaotic formation of the Zombie Warriors, the two groups of people successfully joined forces, but just as they were about to charge out in one go, a earth-shattering roar suddenly came from the distance.

Whoosh…

A Zombie Warrior almost eight meters tall suddenly appeared in front of everyone.

He held a huge butcher knife and wore a strange suit of armor. On the pitch-black armor, mysterious Runes circulated endlessly, emitting an extremely cold and evil aura. Under the shroud of this aura, whether Glory Knights or powerful Holy Knights, they instantly felt weak all over, dizzy, and their physical strength declined, as if a catastrophe was approaching and their morale plummeted.

“Cursed Armor?”

Looking at the Zombie King that suddenly appeared, Prinhus, who had been staying out of it, suddenly changed his face. “Be careful, this is the legendary Undead Zombie King!”

The knowledgeable Prinhus spoke while quickly drawing the Blade of Doomsday from his back, without the slightest hesitation!
