Versatile Mage: Shadow of Dimension

Chapter 128 Shadow-born guards, lurking in secret (4K)

"Jie Jie Jie!!!"

The strange laughter of the Shadowborn Elder echoed in the abyss undead pit.

After confirming that all the undead in the pit were dead, the Shadowborn elder looked up at Zhang Chenran, who was also slowly falling down.

"King, can these souls be handed over to me? I really miss those sleeping subordinates."

The shadow-born elder rubbed his magic hands, his deep pupils concealed anticipation, for fear that he would refuse.

"Yes." Zhang Chenran said expressionlessly.

The expression he showed made the shadow-born elders unpredictable, but since he got permission, the shadow-born elders didn't think too much about it.

Balls of black evil wind rolled up around the elder Shadowborn.

There are thousands of evil winds, and they seem to have their own life consciousness, looking for souls in all directions.

The evil wind that found the soul was swallowed directly, and it surged like a whirlwind in place.

The evil wind that finds the remnant soul will continue to devour the remnant soul, and will not stop until it can be fused into a spirit!

After a while, all the souls in the huge pit of the abyss were swallowed by the evil wind.

"Jie Jie!!! Guards, stand up!!!"

The Shadowborn elder laughed crazily, his pupils filled with excitement!

Under its call, the evil wind strangely merged with the devoured souls, and finally transformed into shadow-born guards!

The Shadowborn guards carry different weapons.

Axes, hammers, broadswords, scythes, swords, hammers, maces. Almost all cold weapons are assembled.

It is almost the same as the weapons used by the elders of the Shadowborn when they hunted the undead in the deep pit. It is no need to think about who taught them to use these weapons.

They seemed to be a little confused when they were just awakened. After feeling the breath of the 'elder', they knelt down towards the elder of the royal family according to their instinctive consciousness!
The number of shadow-born guards is enough to rival a top group, not because of the huge number, but because their aura is the strongest existence in the same stage!

Coupled with the terrifying dark aura, I am afraid that the demon tribe will have no choice but to flee in front of them.

"Where did it come from?"

Zhang Chenran chuckled, and set his eyes on the group of shadow-born guards.

The thousands of shadow-born guards awakened by the shadow-born elder have nothing to do with him!

"They, they are all soldiers in the former legion. Before returning to the Holy Land, I let them sleep in a place where they are not easily noticed."

The tone of the shadow-born elder was a little panicked, and he didn't have the brutal image when he massacred the undead before.

"Really?" Zhang Chenran turned his head to look at it, with a meaningful tone of doubt.

The moment he was targeted, the shadow-born elder knelt down almost instantly.

Because there is no lower body, it looks like a huge ghost crawling on the ground.

"It's the real king. Anyway, they are all Shadowborn warriors who fought for the race. Please don't feel bad and accept them again!"

The shadowborn elder's tone was pleading, completely uncharacteristic of a royal elder.

The shadow-born guards who had just been awakened were still a little confused, and the voice of the shadow-born elder gnashing his teeth sounded in their minds:

"Don't get down on your knees!"

Immediately, the Shadowborn guards knelt down towards Zhang Chenran under the elder's order.

The latter gazed into the distance with a somewhat complicated expression, as if he was thinking about something.

The pupils of the shadow-born elder kept turning, and tension and fear filled his heart.

It raised its head slightly to look at Manzhushahua beside Zhang Chenran, and its tone was full of pleading:
"queen."

Manzhushahua's expression was also confused, as if he didn't understand what was happening in front of him.

Although I don't know how many years I have waited in the sea of ​​flowers on the other side, but the time for her transformation is only three years.

But she could feel the racial blood flowing in the bodies of these shadow-born guards, and she looked at Zhang Chenran with some unbearable.
"Get up."

As Zhang Chenran said, the shadow behind him gradually expanded, covering all the shadow-born guards.

The shadow-born elder breathed a sigh of relief, stood up tremblingly, and the surrounding shadow-born guards also slowly stood up.

"I don't care who you were loyal to in the past, as long as you understand who you should fight for in the future!"

The dark quagmire formed by Zhang Chenran's shadow stretched out chains of contracts and penetrated into the bodies of thousands of shadow-born guards.

The Shadowborn guards standing on the dark quagmire breathed heavily, and after finding their 'home', they slowly retreated into the quagmire.

"How many more exist like them?" Zhang Chenran asked in a complicated tone.

The shadow-born elder was stunned for a moment, and then said:
"Many, either hidden in unknown places, or held captive. They are the hidden kind."

"I'll get them all back!"

Zhang Chenran's eyes were distracted, as if he was answering it, or talking to himself.

The shadow-born elder showed an ugly smile.

What it feared didn't happen, the new king, well...even though he's weak now.

"whisper!"

A Soul Eater butterfly flew to Zhang Chenran's shoulder and sent him a message.

Zhang Chenran hurriedly set off, following the guidance of the soul-eating butterfly, and found a corpse that had just been hunted down by the dark torturer.

The shape of the head of this corpse is the same as that of a human, and the disheveled face is completely covered with blood and slurry, which is extremely disgusting!
There are two ways to advance the undead. One is to rely on dead energy for nourishment. The more dead energy absorbed, the stronger it will be.

The other is to piece together and devour!

Forcibly grafting corpses that do not belong to him onto himself, thereby inheriting certain abilities of the corpses during his lifetime.

The corpse in front of him should have pieced together the head of the female mage onto his own head.

Zhang Chenran, who had been fighting in the ancient capital all the year round, was no stranger to this kind of scene, so he looked around.

Two tattered military mage uniforms were found near the body, one of which had an officer mage badge on it.

"They should be the officers of the Xihong Squad. I hope the monkey is okay."

Zhang Chenran continued to move forward and found a black track not far away.

He remembers the traces left by Xiaohou's wind-type spiritual species 'Erosion' very clearly!
At the end of the black trace is a mountain stream, and there is a big pool of blood beside the stream.
.........

The lonely village stands in the gray world, this ancient village is almost cut off from the outside world.

It was still cloudy, but suddenly it started pouring rain!

"I'm so annoyed. I wanted to go pick herbs today, but it's raining this morning!" Su Xiaoluo, with a delicate face, sighed.

The rain didn't matter, the people in the village knew how to protect themselves from wind and rain when they built their houses.

What is fatal is the corpse poison mixed in the rain. Children and the elderly are weak and can easily be infected with typhoid.

She is now the only 'doctor' in the village, and the only herbal medicine left is not enough to make medicine.

"Why don't I go, I'm not afraid of the rain!" The thin young man wrapped in gauze smirked.

"You should heal your injury first!" Su Xiaoluo said angrily.

The thin young man shook his head and smiled embarrassedly.

"Forget it, I'll boil the remaining herbs first, and you stay here by yourself!"

After Su Xiaoluo finished speaking, she turned and left. After walking a few steps, she looked back at the thin young man wrapped in gauze.

When he was rescued before, he suffered countless injuries, and he didn't know what happened to him.
Looking at the torrential rain outside the window, Zhang Xiaohou couldn't help but clenched his fists tightly. An inexplicable sense of fear rose in his heart, and he murmured:

"what do I do."

During this period of time, he encountered many assassinations by the Black Vatican.

He had no choice but to pretend to be a fool who didn't know anything. Only in this way could the Black Vatican relax his vigilance.

squeak~~~
The wooden door was slowly pushed open, and Zhang Xiaohou returned to his silly appearance.

After a while no one came in, Zhang Xiaohou couldn't help turning his eyes to look, there was no one there.

Illusion Zhang Xiaohou was puzzled.

The wooden door seemed to be pushed by the wind, and just as he was about to get up to close the door, a figure appeared outside the door.

"Xiao Luo!" The old man in a coir raincoat walked into the house.

Not finding Su Xiaoluo, the old man looked at Zhang Xiaohou and said with a smile:
"Fuda, how's the injury?"

Zhang Xiaohou turned his head to look at him blankly, then turned his gaze back out of the window.

Xie Sang then chatted with Zhang Xiaohou for a few words, but the latter didn't respond to what he said.

Xie Sang sighed helplessly, and then left the wooden house.

After he left, Zhang Xiaohou still remained in a daze, and did not respond until Su Xiaoluo came to him.

night.

"I hope it won't rain tomorrow, otherwise Uncle Yang's typhoid fever will worsen." Su Xiaoluo said, then looked at Zhang Xiaohou and said:

"You've been living here for so long, do you want me to remind you where to sleep every day?"

Zhang Xiaohou still smirked at her, Su Xiaoluo glared at him and pulled him into another room.

"Really!"

After Su Xiaoluo took good care of him, she went back to her room to sleep with a puffy face.

I don't know why, but today she seemed to have abandoned all her worries, felt relaxed physically and mentally, and soon fell asleep.
woohoo~~
The wind beat against the window, and a figure quietly emerged from the darkness of the room.

Zhang Xiaohou's heart trembled, the other party had no intention of hiding his aura at all, and just came to him in such a blatant way!

Boom!Boom!Boom!
Footsteps approached slowly.

Zhang Xiaohou was puzzled, did the Black Vatican already plan to attack him?
Time passed by, and the man just stood by the bed and looked at him quietly.

Zhang Xiaohou forcibly suppressed the fear in his heart, just when he was thinking about fighting to the death, a familiar voice echoed in his ears.

"Get up, stop pretending."

He stood up abruptly, looked at the figure beside the bed in disbelief, his eyes were instantly moist:
"Chen, Brother Chen!"

"There are two groups of people from different forces outside this village. They both hid very well. I don't know if they are friends or foes. It is also very troublesome to solve." Zhang Chenran went to the bed and sat down.

Zhang Xiaohou calmed down, and quickly narrated everything about his experience:
"It's the Black Vatican! The Black Vatican appeared near Shayuan the day Shayuan appeared. I wanted to see what happened, but they noticed me. I fled all the way to Hua Village. The Black Vatican wanted to assassinate me just after I regained consciousness." .”

Zhang Xiaohou is not a threat to the Black Holy See, but if he knows something he shouldn't know, the Black Holy See will definitely not let him go.

So he can only pretend to make himself look like he doesn't know anything.

But besides the Black Vatican, another force seemed to be secretly protecting Zhang Xiaohou, so that the Black Vatican did not dare to blatantly silence him.

"The people of the Black Vatican are led by a man in blue. The people of the Black Vatican call him 'Deacon Hujin'. I think his voice is very familiar, but I can't remember who he is." Zhang Xiaohou frowned.

"Familiar? Think about it carefully." Zhang Chenran said.

Zhang Xiaohou recalled the memories deeply hidden in his mind, but when he explored the untouchable place, there was a tearing pain in his head.

"Uh~~~" Zhang Xiaohou was in great pain, but he tried not to make a sound, and hummed in a low voice.

Zhang Chenran noticed something strange, grabbed his hand and pulled his sleeve away.

A black centipede-like mark lay on Zhang Xiaohou's arm, as if it was embedded in the flesh, looking extremely hideous.

"Curse and mind, please stop first."

Zhang Chenran told Zhang Xiaohou to stop recalling, and then his eyes flashed with a strange light.

The power of mind and curse invaded Zhang Xiaohou's body and stabilized the 'centipede'.

Then, the body of the creepy worm shriveled strangely, losing all its energy in an instant.

"Fortunately, Youlan has a way to deal with this kind of bug, otherwise his life will be in danger." Zhang Chenran heaved a sigh of relief as Youlan's voice echoed in his mind.

"Mu He! Brother Chen, I remembered, it's Mu He! He's the head deacon of Hujin!" Zhang Xiaohou was emotional, he paused, and continued:
"Mu He said that the tomb of the ancient king is in Shayuan."

Zhang Chenran was taken aback for a moment, not understanding what he said:
"What do you mean?"

Zhang Xiaohou shook his head, he didn't understand what this sentence meant.

The ancient king, the originator of the earth system, the one who created this land of the dead.

His tomb has never been found by later generations, but Mu He, the chief deacon of Hujin, said that his tomb is in Shayuan?

Fiendish abyss, that is a black restricted zone, no creature can survive falling into the fiendish abyss, how could the tomb of the ancient king be built in such a place?
But this news is not important to him, unless the plan of the Black Vatican this time is to resurrect the old king.

Thinking of this, Zhang Chenran was stunned.

Old King!

That's right, why didn't he expect that even an existence at the level of a dead king would not be able to destroy the ancient capital.

But what about the ancient king who commands all dead kings?
The evil abyss appears in the ancient capital, and the tomb of the ancient king is in the evil abyss.

If the emperor who single-handedly created the land of the dead wants to recover, no one can stop him!

In addition, the Black Vatican has developed a potion that can create dead energy
"Monkey, do you still remember that Boss Zhan Kong asked me to go to Nanling?" Zhang Chenran asked inexplicably.

Zhang Xiaohou nodded, not understanding why he asked this.

Zhang Chenran told all the known information, as well as his own guesses.

After listening, Zhang Xiaohou’s pupils shrank violently:
"The Black Holy See wants to destroy the ancient capital!"

Zhang Chenran shook his head slightly:
"This is just my guess. I need to find another force outside the village. If they are enemies rather than friends, monkey, do you believe me?"

"Of course I believe in Brother Chen!" Zhang Xiaohou replied without any hesitation.

"The Black Vatican will definitely notice that worm in your body is dead. Now that their important secret has been known to us, they will definitely take action."

Zhang Chenran frowned.

Originally, he didn't want to startle the snake, now that he has reached this point
