Chapter 31: Overbearing Tide of Undead, Concealed Conspiracies!

Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios

The hot sun hung in the sky, and a perfect silence prevailed.

It’d merely been a day since Doomsday arrived, but it had caused the originally bustling and lively Dragon City to fall into deathly stillness.

Under the Undead army’s ravaging, the surviving humans were a mere handful. Everyone wanted to live, so who would dare head out?

The entire city became empty, littered with corpses, with gravel and ruins everywhere. Occasionally, some hideous looking Undead Knights would also be wandering around.

Chi!

An arrow burst out, directly blowing the Undead Knight’s skull open, turning it into fine powder.

Several figures walked over. After seeing the Undead Knight that was blown apart, a man exclaimed, “Xingyao, this [Bow of Elf] is really mighty. When will I be able to own a formidable weapon too!”

These people were the Luo siblings, Luo Xinghe and Luo Xingyao. On Link’s orders, they were heading to Dragon City’s east side, searching for powerful Undead bosses! However, they did not encounter any powerful Undead bosses throughout their journey. Instead, they had eliminated a big heap of low-level Skeleton Swordsmen and Undead Knights.

In the time they followed Link, the siblings’ capabilities had improved significantly. They could even crush the Undead Knights that they originally steered clear of.

Such a reversal in the situation was like a surreal dream, seeming too good to be true.

“So long as we follow Lord, anything is possible!” said Luo Xingyao peacefully. She was originally an extreme tsundere. Although she was filled with longing for great power, her true intentions had been tightly bottled up. But ever since Link appeared, he had caused Luo Xingyao to waver inwardly. She vaguely sensed that following behind this man would result in an unforeseen ending!

This point filled Luo Xingyao with yearning; it also made her put down her haughtiness.

“Alright, I think the same too!” Luo Xinghe nodded, firmly convinced.

Link’s mysteriousness and might had already conquered these two people.

Especially the God Devourer Ant that followed behind them, constantly searching around. It could destroy an Undead creature in one move! This was a formidable creature, yet it was extremely obedient to Link. This was enough to prove how terrifying Link was!

“Let’s go! We’ll go find monsters to kill!” Luo Xinghe called out and took the lead, charging forward. He similarly craved strength. Only by becoming strong could one survive in this time of Doomsday!

Natural selection, survival of the fittest—this was the order of the universe!

In this apocalyptic period, such order had already been vividly demonstrated!

Soon, the duo passed through layers of ruins to arrive at a lofty building.

It was a hospital—Dragon City’s biggest hospital. In normal times, its visitor volume was insanely high. But dead silence and desolation lingered around the whole building currently, giving one a sense of extreme fright and bleakness!

“Are there... living people in there?” Luo Xinghe stopped in his steps as he set his gaze on the desolate and gloomy hospital. He sensed a strong pressure ceaselessly hanging in the air as if it were hiding some big terror!

“Do not act recklessly. Inform Lord first!” Luo Xingyao came forward, her eyes looking extremely solemn.

As a [Demon Sealing Arrow], her perception was exceedingly sharp. She knew far better than Luo Xinghe how frightening the forces hidden in the hospital were!

Just like a volcano ready to erupt, it could spurt lava anytime!

Even the God Devourer Ant could not help but let out a buzzing sound. It was unknown whether it was out of fear or excitement...

Roar!

Right then, an anomaly occurred!

Snarls abruptly sounded from inside the hospital, and the shrieks were exceedingly piteous as if ferocious ghosts in the netherworld were howling!

At the same time, a dense black tide abruptly surged out from the hospital. It was everywhere and came with an imposing manner as if a tempestuous wave had overturned this place!

At this moment, Luo Xinghe and Luo Xingyao’s countenances saw a flurry of changes; their breathing also became rapid!

“Un-Undead Tide!!!” said Luo Xinghe, his voice vaguely trembling as it carried traces of terror.

It was really because this scene was too frightening. It was unlike Dragon City No. 1 Middle School, where all the monsters were just some low-level Undead like Skeleton Soldiers and Skeleton Swordsmen!

This was an Undead Tide. Tens of thousands of Undead rushed out together. Just their momentum alone was appalling!

The lowest-leveled dark creatures among them were Stage Two Undead Knights and Stage Two Undead Archers. There were even two Dark Magi—a monster that Link had killed not long ago!

What a dreadful scene this was. So many frightening Undead launching an attack together... Probably no one could stop them!

“Exactly what secret is hidden in the hospital to make so many powerful Undead actually gather?” questioned Luo Xingyao softly. She had a nagging feeling that this hospital wasn’t simple, and it was indeed so!

“Don’t care about it so much! Run quickly! If we don’t start running, we’ll be trampled!” warned Luo Xinghe hurriedly as he watched the Undead army that was rushing toward them. It was like watching hordes of troops and horses pushing forward, about to overturn everything and crush them into fine powder.

Just then, the God Devourer Ant at the side let out a buzzing sound, and its wings flapped hard, seeming to be filled with excitement.

The God Devourer Ant charged out before the two siblings spoke, moving towards the Undead Tide!

The God Devourer Ant was indeed a Super God-grade existence. Even though all these Undead were of higher level than it, they were as fragile as sheets of paper under the God Devourer Ant’s absolute strength.

The God Devourer Ant was like a huge rock. With the momentum of sweeping away everything in its way, it forcefully charged into the Undead Tide!

After seeing the God Devourer Ant enter the fray, Luo Xingyao also started moving. She rose and drew her bow. Radiance shrouded the [Bow of Elf], and a bright green ray suddenly shot out!

“Explosive arrow!” Luo Xingyao cried out delicately. The arrow flew out and caused a massive explosion among the Undead Tide, instantly crushing a dozen Undead Knights.

With the [Bow of Elf] and the explosive arrows—which Luo Xingyao had recently grasped—the might she produced was indeed astonishing.

Upon seeing the two fighting instead of retreating, Luo Xinghe let out a sigh. He could only raise his mountain knife and prepare to resist the enemy.

Only, this mad wave of Undead was not as simple as it appeared to be...

...

On the other side, Link and Yang Xuerou were advancing to the north of Dragon City.

Given Link’s capabilities, the average dark creatures really could not stand one strike from him. Thus, wherever he passed was as easy as walking on flat ground.

The number of Undead creatures that died in Link’s hands throughout the journey was probably already uncountable. However, Link had discovered an anomaly. They encountered increasingly fewer Undead the further north they headed.

This was a strange phenomenon. Logically speaking, all areas would be unable to avoid devastation when Doomsday arrived. All areas would be attacked by Undead.

However, this area was indeed odd!

“That side is...” Link nodded slightly as if he had understood something. But just then, Link arched a brow, and a slight change occurred in his expression.

“What’s wrong?” questioned Yang Xuerou after sensing Link’s change.

“They seemed to have discovered good stuff! Come, we’ll go take a look first!” said Link as he shot a profound glance toward the north of Dragon City. He then turned and headed towards the east.
