Chapter 172 The predator in the shadows!(1/2)
The man wearing the bone crown raised his hands and pressed them down to signal everyone to quiet down.
"Everyone, I actually made a major discovery." He said.
"What discovery?" someone asked.
"There were several gaps in the picture, and it shifted to the sky," the man said.
"It does seem like there are a few moments," another responded, "but so what?"
The man smiled, with an evil look on his face, and said in a low voice: "You all know that my Eye of True Sight has evolved to the fifth stage, so naturally I saw a monster that you can't see -"
"I don't know its name."
"Now please take a look and see if anyone recognizes it."
He waved his hand.
Rays of pale light condensed in the void, transforming into the appearance of a battlefield selector.
This is a huge human face.
Its eyes were completely black, with no pupils or whites. It just looked down at the earth, with countless dark runes etched on its face. From a distance, it looked like a candle emitting black light.
.
The strong men standing at the top of the necromancy spell looked at this monster quietly, lost in thought.
For a while.
The man with the bone crown said: "As we all know, when we summon the undead, we have to pay a lot of huge prices, and sometimes we even have to sell our own souls, but this is not important."
"The important thing is-"
"The undead almost never talk to us about the kingdom of death."
"They don't allow us to pry into their mysteries."
"So for countless years—"
"The knowledge we have of the Realm of Death is extremely limited, and secrets are rarely shared between the various schools."
The man turned his hand.
A pale booklet appeared in his hand.
"If anyone can tell the secret of this monster, I promise to let him read the 'Pale Book' of our skeleton department, and allow him to read three pages in a row."
A dark shadow spoke:
"I know a little bit about it."
"Oh? What is it?" the man asked.
"That was fifteen hundred years ago. Once, I summoned an undead knight to help me face an ambush - in fact, when I first became a necromancer, this undead knight was mine.
Comrade-in-arms, so I trust him very much."
"Go on, my respected friend," the man said.
The black shadow continued: "During that difficult battle, I summoned it, but it said it came to say goodbye to me."
"I'm very surprised, because the contract between him and me lasts for 30,000 years, and there is no reason for it to be interrupted suddenly."
"I asked him."
"He said--"
"In a war in the Kingdom of Death, he was selected by the 'Battlefield Selector' and was about to be completely devoured by an extremely great being, without any room for resistance."
"I said why don't you know how to hide?"
"He looked very bitter at that time, shook his head and said something -"
"——'Who can see the Chosen One above the battlefield? Very few people even know about it. As long as you are good enough, you will not escape the fate of being devoured in the end.'"???.
After the black shadow finished speaking, he sighed and stopped talking.
Everyone was silent.
The man wearing the bone crown mused: "So, the war we see is actually a 'prey' in the true sense."
"Based on my understanding of the undead, I very much agree with your point of view." The black shadow said.
Another black shadow said loudly: "The laws are endless, and the power of each profession is also endless. It is absolutely impossible for one person to obtain all the great power."
"So in any world, devouring is a fairly normal method, even in the kingdom of death." Another black shadow continued.
"This is the first time we have observed the 'devouring' scene of the Kingdom of Death."
"I really hope to see more...maybe it can help us understand the real mystery of death."
"Who says it's not?"
"I don't know when the dead man will perform his next cross-border show."
"The only thing we can do is wait..."
Everyone was talking a lot.
When Wu Xiaode saw this, he stopped looking.
He unlocked the spell, and the entire body projection immediately disappeared from where it was.
the other side.
The kingdom of death.
Wu Xiaode suddenly came back to his senses.
Everything that happened in that strange secret place outside the prison of crime, in the extremely distant nebula, all appeared in his memory.
This is a predator.
"Looking at it now... no wonder the Book of the Dead asked me to play dumb."
Wu Xiaode sighed.
From this point of view, there is a quite powerful existence hiding in the darkness, trying to use the trials of the Kingdom of Death to select suitable objects to devour.
How to survive?
Wu Xiaode fell into deep thought.
He thought hard, recalled what happened on the battlefield many times, and finally said:
"There is only one way..."
"Victory in this war."
"Yes, as long as you win the battle, the trial will inevitably enter the settlement stage. This is the promotion law of the Kingdom of Death. I believe that existence cannot stop it."
——But I only have 20 points of soul power.
How can we win this war?
A flash of inspiration suddenly flashed in his mind.
Got it!
There is indeed a way...
Some people foresaw this situation, and they wanted to repay themselves.
Wu Xiaode suddenly turned his head and looked towards the Book of the Dead.
The Book of the Dead sensed his thoughts and quickly opened it until it reached a certain page.
On this page, lines of ice crystal characters were recorded:
"Before heading to the kingdom of death, the undead will give you a true thank you gift."
"Super large undead summoning halo."
"One-shot war halo."
"Explanation: Using this halo, you can summon the undead of all professionals who have escaped from the torture of death, and order them to fight for you."
Yes.
He tried every possible means and deliberately used the hands of the Cyclops to kill the "God of Death" in one fell swoop.
The "God of Death" is a reaper created by gathering the power of all demon gods.
Once it is destroyed, the undead will naturally be freed.
These souls who were tortured by the "God of Death" condensed this halo as a thank you gift.
Wu Xiaode raised his hand and looked at the black mark on it.
The mark is a one-time war aura that can summon many powerful undead!
Wu Xiaode looked towards the Book of the Dead again.
"Among all the dead, there is a most wise mage who has analyzed your needs based on your situation."
