City of Dimlight

Chapter 227 The Real Reasons of the Black Tide

Simon quickly found two zombies and vampires that seemed to be more advanced from the undead of the Archangel Fortress. After interrogating both undeads, he found the information he needed and returned to the cave.

The left-behind Leo, Kozmo and Zak looked ecstatic, and they didn't notice Simon coming in.

"Well, you are..." Simon was very puzzled. It seemed that the three of them should have made some major discoveries. But before he finished speaking, Leo raised the box in his hand, "Teacher, do you know what this is?"

"I don't know, is there anything special?" Simon took a step back, and he was still not used to this feeling.

"Teacher, this is the box of holy light!" Leo showed a very subtle expression: "In this way, maybe we can reverse the whole black tide!"

"How do you know it's this thing?" Simon asked that he knew the four legendary artifacts, but it seemed that the box was very ordinary and there was no special place.

Is this an artifact?

The abandoned blade is also an artifact, but in the hands of the ghost emperor, the power is simply to split the sea, but this box doesn't seem to have that feeling.

"That's right," Leo explained. "We began to make a small magic array and got in touch with the City of Sky. According to the original power and appearance of this box, it is likely to be this thing!"

"Power?" Simon said, "Have you seen it?"

Kozmo nodded and said, "Mr. Simon, we have also seen the power of this box to purify the undead at the beginning. Such a great power is indeed rare, so we can conclude!"

"Of course it's good," Simon sat on a rock, "but even so, how can he turn the situation around? - I think the best result is nothing more than to seal the ghost emperor! But since the black tide is launched, even if you seal the ghost emperor, it won't change much!"

"How come?" Leo asked, "As long as the black tide's figura is eliminated, the black tide should naturally retreat, right?"

Simon shook his head and told the origin of the black tide in detail: in fact, the black tide is not just an attack by the dead, and there is a very special reason.

The necromancer was originally a unique plane. The soul that dies in each plane will eventually return to the soul world and be sent to another plane for reincarnation or rebirth. The necromancer, like our current plane, also belongs to a plane, but what exists in it is the dead, not the soul. .

Necromancer is also a form of existence, just like vampires, which can be transformed by humans. Therefore, this plane is very close to the plane that exists in humans and has its own unique connection.

Creatures in the necromancer rely on the fire of the soul to survive, which is the same as human beings need food, but just thousands of years ago, when all human beings migrated to the underground world, there was a strange phenomenon in the undead world that had not been seen for millions of years - that is, the production of the well of the soul has decreased.

In fact, the well of the soul is a very strange thing. It generates energy according to the amount of the soul and has its own connection with the soul world. According to common sense, as long as the soul is enough, the spirit generated in it is enough to produce enough soul fire in the dead world to meet the needs of all the dead.

After this strange phenomenon appeared, the well of the soul could not meet the needs of all the dead, so at this time, a king appeared and proposed to capture the human world.

War has been the best way to reduce the population since ancient times, but for the undead, this situation can also reduce the number of undead, so the first black tide broke out.

At that time, the exit I was looking for was the connection point of the two planes. After gathering the power of several kings, it was easy to find a breakthrough point and sent a lot of undeads to come here. Not only did they plunder enough souls, but also killed many undead spirits, so the first famine was quickly passed.

But later this continued to happen, and every time the plane channel was opened, which solved the problem.

When Leo heard this, he couldn't help but be shocked. "Teacher, according to you, the emergence of the black tide was not planned by any undead king, but due to this abnormal situation in the undead world?"

"Not bad!" Simon said, "Except this time!"

Originally, the Kuroshiwa was also caused by the reduction of the spirit of the soul well, but because the ghost emperor Casablanca obtained the abandoned blade, his ambition suddenly expanded, so he was ready to simply destroy the human world and become the supreme king of the plane.

This is the unprecedented reason for this black tide!

Almost everyone understands that Kuroshio has this special reason in it, rather than simply planned by an undead king. The ghost emperor just increased it on this basis!

"So what should the black tide have been like this time?" Leo asked, "I don't know how much spirit the soul well can provide this time?"

Simon shook his head: "This time, the black tide is already huge," he said. "I didn't know until I integrated the inheritance that the previous black tide, but the output of the soul well was almost 20% to 40%, but this time, the output of the soul well has been reduced by 60%!"

"Ah!" Several people exclaimed, "Do you mean that more than half of the undead must die?" Leo asked.

"Yes," Simon said, "So even if the Lich King launched a war at that time, it was within the scope of our undead world's acquiescence. This war can kill many undead first. In this way, the number of undead that need to be transmitted to the human world is much less, and we don't have to consume a lot of energy to do this. !"

"But," he quickly added, "Now that the ghost emperor is like this, it is estimated that 80% of the undead in the undead world have come to the human world!"

"What should I do?" Zak was a little surprised, "So, even if we destroy the ghost emperor, there is nothing we can do?"

"Yes," Simon nodded: "Even if you destroy the ghost emperor, now that the undead have come out, they will not go back!" He looked at Leo: "So I said that even if you really sealed the ghost emperor, the black tide still can't solve it!"

"The spirit of the dead... the spirit of the dead," Leo said a few times and suddenly raised his head: "It is said that the abandoned blade can extract the spirit of the dead from the dead. I don't know if it's true?"

"This is true," Simon answered, "but the situation is very complicated. Even if the spirit of the dead is enough, the dead can't be taken back now!" Although Simon's expression could not be seen, Leo guessed that he must be helpless: "No one can recall all the undead - except the ghost emperor!"

"It doesn't look realistic for him to bring the dead back to the undead world," Kozmo frowned: "And we don't seem to be his opponents!"

Zack nodded: "You said that it may be possible to destroy it if it was a sneak attack, but it was said that it would be threatened after being captured alive--" He looked at Simon and others: "I don't think it can be done!"

Suddenly, Leo raised his head and said, "I have a way, but I want to ask the teacher first, is the reason why the ghost emperor can command all the dead only by relying on the abandoned blade, or is there other reasons?"

"Abandoned Blade!" Simon was sure, "He subdued all the leaders of the undead community, and then controlled such a huge undead race through them - subduing these guys is the abandoned blade to rely on!"

"That's easy," Leo suddenly smiled: "Let's kill the ghost emperor, and then find another ghost emperor to control the abandoned blade - what do you think, master?"

"This..." Simon obviously didn't think of this problem, but after Leo said it, he quickly thought about it and approved the idea: "Yes, it should be achievable!"

"That's you, teacher!" Leo continued: "We eliminate the ghost emperor, and then teacher, you master the blade of abandonment, bring all the undead spirits back to the world, and then inject enough dead spirits into the well of the soul. Can that meet the needs of the dead world?"

"Me?" Simon was shocked, but he looked at the expressions of Leo and Zucker and others and sighed helplessly: "Well, as long as the abandoned blade can be taken back, I will bring the dead back!"

Seeing Simon agree, Leo immediately picked up the box in his hand: "This box of light can seal the ghost emperor - we will use this to deal with him then!"

"No!" Cozmo and Simon shouted at the same time.

Kozmo roared, "Did you not hear about it just now? If the box of light seals an alien that exceeds its own strength, the energy required is huge, and it can only be done by sacrificing life - you will die because of it!"

"That's right, I won't let you do this!" Simon then said, "The soul after the sacrifice of life is nothing, which is worse than death - I would rather I attack the ghost emperor this time!"

Leo said with a smile, "Actually, you don't have to worry about me, really," he took out a book from the space ring and lit up in front of several people. "Look, what is this?"

The golden light flashed in front of several people, and the big words on it instantly shocked everyone: the Golden Sutra of the Sun!

Leo slowly opened the book. On the last page, he pointed to a text and said, "This is the last spell of the Sun Golden Sutra. You can use the art of soul purification. If there is an artifact box of holy light, you can directly enlarge the spell through it and seal the last evil soul in it!"

Seeing that several people were a little puzzled, Leo explained, "In fact, the four artifacts were not single at first. They were a whole. The gods handed over these four artifacts to a human being to master this power to deal with dwarfs - but later, because each artifacts had their own The same power is mistaken for four single artifacts!"

"I see!" Kozmo suddenly realized: "So that's why you were so excited at first!"

"Not bad!" Leo smiled and said, "I can drive the box of holy light with the power of the Sun and Gold Sutra, and there is no need for soul sacrifice!"
