Chapter 713 Solving the Undead!
Monopolizing Eight Spirit Veins!?
Gary didn’t know what spirit veins were, but he could guess… Fang Yu was referring to the eight energy core pulses absorbed by the Lich King.
So it seemed… Fang Yu had come for the Lich King.
“If you’re talking about the undead who absorbed eight energy core pulses, it is the king of the undead race… but right now, it’s not in this castle,” Gary said with a glint in his eyes. “I don’t know where it is at the moment, but it said it would return here tomorrow morning.”
“Tomorrow morning? I don’t have time to wait that long,” Fang Yu frowned.
The Lich King had left the castle, obviously to refine the massive amount of spiritual energy it had consumed.
Fang Yu wasn’t sure how quickly the Lich King could refine energy, but he was certain that the more time it had, the less high-intensity spiritual energy would remain in its body.
Simply put, the sooner he found the Lich King, the greater his reward would be.
Otherwise, it might all be for nothing.
“I know you definitely have a way to find its location,” Fang Yu looked at Gary on the ground, slowly raising his right foot, and said calmly, “So I’ll give you a choice.”
“Either help me find its location. Or I’ll crush your head.”
Gary looked up and saw the cold smile on Fang Yu’s face, feeling a chill in his heart.
He knew he couldn’t stall for time anymore.
The man before him couldn’t be easily fooled, neither in strength nor intellect.
“For my future plans… I must stay alive… even if the Lich King is defeated by him, I still have an equal opportunity to turn the tables,” Gary thought.
“Have you decided?” Fang Yu slowly raised his right foot.
“I can contact the Lich King! I’m willing to contact it and lock onto its position!” Gary said urgently.
Fang Yu put his foot down and smiled: “Then hurry up.”
“Snap!”
At that moment, Bai Ran flew in from the gap behind, just in time to see Fang Yu turning around.
“It’s handled, just wait a moment,” Fang Yu said.
Bai Ran nodded and said with a horrified expression: “Mr. Fang, I just extended my spiritual sense to check the situation outside the castle gate… it’s extremely brutal out there.”
“That’s normal. Those disorganized crowds outside are no match for those undead,” Fang Yu said.
“That woman took action and eliminated four of the undead outside,” Bai Ran paused, then said, “However, of the nearly two hundred people originally there, fewer than fifty remain alive now.”
Fang Yu knew that the woman Bai Ran mentioned was Violet.
With Violet’s strength, dealing with those ten undead shouldn’t be a big problem.
But Fang Yu didn’t say anything. Right now, he only cared about the Lich King’s location.
“How’s it going?” Fang Yu turned to look at Gary, who was typing on a keyboard.
“I’m trying to lock onto its position. Please give me two to three minutes,” Gary glanced at Fang Yu and said.
…
Outside the castle gate, the once snow-white ground was now soaked with dark red blood, looking extremely horrifying.
On the ground, there were many broken bodies, a scene too gruesome to look at. The stench of blood was overwhelmingly thick, making people nauseous.
At this moment, only five undead remained, continuously releasing enormous suction force.
In the air before them, a purple light flashed rapidly.
“Whoosh! Whoosh! Whoosh!”
Violet moved like a ghost, reaching extreme speeds, easily dodging the black fluid sprayed from the undead’s mouths.
During this process, she rapidly closed the distance between herself and the five undead.
“Swoosh!”
After dodging another attack, Violet appeared behind the leftmost undead, extending her fist wrapped in purple energy, and smashed it into the back of the undead’s head!
“Boom!”
With a loud explosion, the undead let out a hoarse scream, its entire form dissipating into wisps of black mist that scattered away.
“Four left.”
Violet’s body radiated purple light, her aura rising steadily.
Now that she was actually fighting, the fear etched deep in her memory had diminished significantly.
She was no longer the same person she had been years ago.
Facing the undead, she no longer needed to run away, but could attack!
The suction force they released meant nothing to her.
“Captain Croix… today, I will avenge you,” Violet’s eyes showed a hint of reminiscence, which disappeared instantly, replaced by cold killing intent.
“Boom!”
With another explosion, Violet landed another punch on the body of a nearby undead.
Another undead violently dissipated.
Behind her, the crowd that had been terrified by the undead’s horror, their courage shattered, were now struggling to resist the suction force.
After Violet had eliminated six undead, the suction force they felt had decreased significantly.
Looking at Violet fighting like a war god, these people’s eyes were filled with shock.
The Dark Rankings hadn’t been updated for a long time, and Violet still ranked third.
But her strength… had probably far exceeded her ranking by now, right?
She was just too powerful…
Anderson, dressed in white robes, watched Violet’s figure with eyes full of not just shock, but even more burning desire.
Only a woman like this was worthy of him! Worthy of the reputation of the Nord royal family!
He decided that after today, he must find a way to become friends with Violet!
“Count Anderson, shouldn’t we request reinforcements?” a young man behind him asked, looking at the large pool of blood on the ground ahead, his face pale.
Anderson turned his head and frowned: “The undead are almost eliminated. What reinforcements do we need? Wouldn’t that just let latecomers share our credit?”
“Count… we actually haven’t…” another young man hesitated.
Anderson glanced at him, his face twitching slightly, and said: “As long as we’re here, we can claim credit, and most of it at that!”
“Because right now, only we from the Nord royal family are present!”
“Think about it. If news of today’s events spreads, will people believe that an assassin organization leader single-handedly eliminated the undead race… or that our Nord royal family’s team eliminated the undead race?”
Hearing these words, the young men behind him showed subtle changes in their expressions.
Indeed, just by being here today, they were winners.
What exactly they would gain didn’t matter at all.
For these royal family members, honor was everything!
Within the royal family, those who accumulated more honor would rise in rank faster!
Eliminating the infamous undead race was a great honor!
But even so, they were still afraid.
They didn’t want to stay in this place any longer!
The smell of blood permeating the air made it difficult for them to breathe.
“Count, can we leave here first? And then later…” another young man asked.
“How can we leave now?! This is exactly when we’re about to reap the rewards!” Anderson glared at him and said.
“But…” the other young men had pale faces, their eyes full of terror.
“Look at yourselves… you’re bringing shame to the Nord royal family!” Anderson scolded. “Most of the undead have been eliminated. What are you afraid of?”
Seeing Anderson’s anger, the other young men dared not speak.
Anderson snorted coldly and said: “I’m not asking you to charge forward and fight the undead. That’s already considering your youth! Now, just stand here quietly! Don’t say another word!”
Anderson had been the most enthusiastic about this mission to eliminate the undead race, which is why he arrived so quickly.
Originally, the prince had decided to send another team, but Anderson fought desperately for this opportunity and finally got it.
He was thirty-nine years old this year, and his title of Count had come from his grandfather.
In the Western Region’s royal title inheritance system, titles could be passed down through generations, but each generation would be reduced by one rank.
To raise one’s title, one could only rely on accumulating honor.
Anderson’s father had failed to do this, so the Anderson family had fallen from the top rank of Duke to Marquis, and by the time it was passed to Anderson, it had already become Count.
If this continued, in at most two generations, the Anderson family’s title would be stripped away.
This was unacceptable to Anderson.
Therefore, he desperately wanted to raise his title!
This time was the perfect opportunity.
He knew that the young men he brought didn’t have much strength, but that was exactly his strategy!
