Werewolf wizard

Chapter 250 Entering the Undead Town

However, Su Nan didn't care about Mary's worldly status.

Such status wasn't that important to a wizard.

Besides, Mary was a member of his coven, and she had paid a certain price to invite him to help this time.

The two of them, along with the Death Knight Legion, arrived in the wilderness outside the town of Corfu, in front of the colossal man-made wonder, the statue of the God of Law, which was over two hundred meters tall.

It was exactly noon at this time.

Because of the scorching sun, there was no one around the statue of the God of Law.

There were only low bushes reflecting light under the sun.

As expected, Su Nan discovered that the angle of the statue's shadow was skewed under the sunlight, proving that there was something within the shadow causing the deflection.

After finding the magical fluctuations within the shadow, Su Nan opened the gate to the inner world of the shadow.

Su Nan, Justice, and the Death Knight Legion entered the shadow together, disappearing from the sun-scorched shrubbery.

As soon as he entered the Undead Town, Su Nan noticed that it was different from what he had imagined.

It was as if he had arrived in a peaceful and serene country town.

Outside the town, there were also many fields, covered with crops and vegetables planted by the town's residents.

The sunlight here was warm, the breeze gentle, and the air fresh and crisp, as beautiful as a landscape painting; the entire town's colors were a mix of red and white.

Living here would surely be very pleasant.

The entire town didn't have even a trace of death magic.

Su Nan looked up at the sky, where there was also a sun and blue sky with white clouds.

Su Nan sensed something trying to curse him, but under his fifteen-fold permanent defense field—the Brown Force Field—the curse was like an egg hitting a rock; no matter how it tried to curse him, it couldn't work.

And the Death Knights themselves were in a state between life and death; this kind of aging curse could only target things with lifespans, so naturally, it couldn't affect the Death Knight Legion at all.

Mary Paleologue said to Su Nan: "This town looks like a normal town during the day. But as soon as night falls, anyone who leaves the town will encounter attacks from a large number of undead creatures."

"I wanted to find the core area of this town and find a way to break the curse, but I've always come up empty. Also, I can't stay here for more than a day, or I'll be forced to leave this space because of the undead army at night."

"I've tried staying in the town at night, and I wasn't attacked by the undead army, but I've searched the entire town, and I'm certain that the core control area isn't in this town. I think the core control area should be in the wilderness outside the town, but unfortunately, I have very little time to move freely in the wilderness, because as soon as night falls, the wilderness is filled with undead creatures…"

Su Nan nodded.

"Mary, I basically understand. You don't need to tell me anymore; I'll observe it myself."

"Because what you say is likely to mislead me."

"Based on your own incorrect observations of this Undead Town, you'll summarize a series of incorrect rules from your incorrect observations, and then you'll tell me these rules, which will waste a lot of my time. I might as well just re-observe it myself."

What Su Nan said was true.

Therefore, Mary Paleologue didn't refute anything; she was also afraid that her own incorrect understanding would interfere with Su Nan's judgment of the place, affecting the speed at which Su Nan found the core area of this Undead Town.

Su Nan spent ten minutes carefully observing the sky of this space, and discovered that magic had been cast on this space, directly borrowing the sky of Corfu Island outside this space.

The proof was that after they entered this town, their shadows under the sunlight were parallel to their shadows at the same time on Corfu Island.

This showed that this space hadn't formed an independent ecosystem. The sky, the sun, and the air were all connected to the outside world, directly borrowing the natural environment of Corfu Island.

Su Nan walked to the fields, squatted down, and pulled out a radish from the field. The radish in this field was actually withered, only the size of a human little finger.

Su Nan had the Death Knights begin to pull out the crops from the nearby farmland, and discovered that all the crops here were like this.

Su Nan's eyes sharpened.

This meant that the town could no longer rely on farming in this space with severely insufficient life energy to maintain its food supply.

This was also easy to understand.

After all, this space was modified by a necromancer, not by a wizard of the School of Life.

Therefore, it was normal that nothing could be grown in this space.

Mary had obviously been searching for the core area in the wilderness outside the town, or fighting with the undead outside the wilderness, so she had never checked these crops.

At this moment, her expression changed drastically.

"I always thought that the people in this town were living off these crops outside the town. If the crops here are all like this, then… what are they using to survive?"

Su Nan glanced at her.

At that moment, a man dressed as a farmer outside the field saw that Su Nan and the others were pulling out crops in the field, and became very anxious. He hurriedly trotted over, shouting as he ran: "Stop, stop it."

"Outsiders, why are you pulling out our crops for no reason? Do you know that all the food is very precious!"

"If you do this and Mayor Anthony, who hates outsiders the most, sees you, you'll be immediately driven out of our town."

Su Nan turned to look at the farmer. This person was wearing an ancient costume, like someone who had passed away many years ago.

"Oh, then I'll put these crops back."

Su Nan immediately ordered ten ordinary Death Knights to put all the pulled-out crops back.

Immediately, the old farmer Gaius laughed heartily. In his eyes, those crops seemed to have been restored.

"Outsiders, you are really kind-hearted."

"Okay, I, Gaius, invite you to my house for dinner. Although my house isn't very rich, I do have three slaves. One of them is a eunuch slave captured from the east in Persepolis. He can cook a good meal."

"I, Gaius, am the most hospitable person in town. We even have a free public bathhouse in the center of our town. That's a bathhouse that our emperor built for us citizens to please us."

Su Nan and Mary exchanged glances.

Now, Su Nan could confirm that these people in the town were indeed still living in an ancient era, so ancient that it was likely the society of more than two thousand years ago.

Su Nan scanned Gaius and found that he was full of life energy, looking just like a normal living person. He didn't have a trace of death aura, but in this ghostly place where living people couldn't possibly survive, could someone really be living a comfortable life being served by three slaves?

Su Nan looked at the town in front of him again, and already had some guesses, "So that's how it is."

"Then this town is really interesting."

Su Nan said to Gaius: "Okay, then we'll go to your house with you."

Gaius obviously became extremely happy; he was really very hospitable.

Mary then asked Su Nan.

"Lord Su Nan, have you seen anything?"

Su Nan said to Mary: "If I'm not mistaken, then this town isn't what you previously guessed, a place for a necromancer to store undead soldiers. This is where his wizard tower is located."

"It seems that I'm lucky this time, and I can have a relatively big harvest."

Mary showed a look of confusion.

"But you can't see a wizard tower here at all. I've looked many times."
