Chapter 118: Undead Instance Dungeon

……

After a bout of commotion, the Undead in Hua Village were cleared out by Mo Fan and the others.

Although Lv Cheng sensed the person manipulating these Undead in the shadows, he had no interest in exposing them, nor did he have any interest in interfering with what would happen next.

He had come to the Ancient Capital primarily to devour the soul of the Ancient King, and then to formally meet Asharuiya, while incidentally giving the egg of the Dark Magic Dragon to this young lady for her to help raise.

As for other matters, he would at most just watch the show.

As for the Battle of the Ancient Capital, it was better left to Mo Fan; after all, because of previous events and Zhankong's recommendation, Mo Fan had long ago caught the eye of Hua Zhanhong, the commander of the Southern Military Region.

Next, it was still necessary to let Mo Fan show off a bit more.

Especially with the power of the Demon; how should the Dark Archmage make a grand and justified entrance next?

It couldn't be too abrupt, the style had to be maintained, and it couldn't interfere with the plan to devour the Ancient King—the script was a bit hard to write...

"Brother Cheng, Monkey is still alive, but he is seriously injured and seems to have lost his memory," Mo Fan walked over.

"Amnesia?" Lv Cheng raised his eyebrows and looked at Zhang Xiaohou, who was standing there with a dull expression, hiding behind a young girl.

"Still flirting with girls even after losing his memory? Little Monkey has actually learned a bit of my style, but I wonder what He Yu, who is currently weeping in the Ancient Capital, would think if she knew about this..."

Upon hearing this, a look of obvious guilt appeared on the dull-faced Zhang Xiaohou's face.

"Monkey! Did you remember something?" Mo Fan said excitedly.

"Monkey!"

No matter how Mo Fan reminded him or recounted the brotherhood between them, Zhang Xiaohou had no further reaction; only the name of He Yu could have a slight effect.

Regarding this, Mo Fan expressed that he was very sad, but there was nothing he could do.

Next, the village was attacked by Undead, and the village chief of Hua Village decided to set off during the day to seek refuge in the Ancient Capital; however, because the Ancient Capital was far away, most of the people in the village decided to stay behind, firmly believing that the so-called Well Water God would protect them.

"The village is already like this, are you still staying here to wait for death!?" Su Xiaoluo shouted with some anger.

Unfortunately, older people are very stubborn; no matter how Su Xiaoluo tried to persuade them, they remained indifferent.

"The Councilor will protect everyone; as long as we reach the outer city wall, we will be safe," Su Xiaoluo was still unwilling to give up.

Staying here was definitely a certain death; those Undead no longer cared whether everyone had drunk the well water, nor did they care about those gray wooden stakes—hiding in the well cellar was just waiting for death.

"We don't know any Councilor, and besides, you little brats, don't try to bluff us with some Councilor," an old grandmother said with some anger.

"Exactly, leaving the village is abandoning our ancestors, and we will be punished."

"……"

Listening to this group of old men and women chattering back and forth, many people who had originally intended to leave were actually fooled into going back.

"Brother Cheng, why don't you persuade them?" Mo Fan said.

The tragic state of Yangyangcun was still fresh in his memory; he didn't think Hua Village could be spared. Staying here was highly likely just waiting for death. Leaving with them, with Lv Cheng there, the safety would definitely be much higher than staying here.

"Persuade them to do what?" Lv Cheng lay on the laps of the Liu Xian sisters and turned to his side.

"If they are willing to stay here, let them stay. Whether they live or die is their own choice. I am a person who rarely forces others to do what they don't want to do, nor will I self-righteously do things for others' own good. I can save their lives, but I cannot save their hearts."

The thinking of these older people had already solidified; their faith in the Well Water God, which they had held for decades, could not be changed in a few words. Making them abandon the Well Water God and leave was more painful than killing them.

Moreover, with Fang Gu's revenge, even if these people successfully reached the Ancient Capital, they might not necessarily survive.

"By the way, I have something to do next, so you all have to go back by yourselves," Lv Cheng sat up.

"……"

"Huh!?" Mo Fan looked bewildered.

No, Big Brother!

If you leave, what are we supposed to do?

"Don't worry," Lv Cheng raised his hand and summoned Jingyun.

"It will go with you, and you can also use my Little Sun. As long as you follow the path you came from, you won't encounter any danger."

"Of course, if you are unlucky and encounter a Monarch-level Undead, then you can only blame your bad luck. After all, I can't do anything about that thing either; if I encounter one, I can at most protect myself, but I can't save you."

The corner of Mo Fan's eye twitched, "Alright."

Soon, everyone packed their things, and the short man and Mo Fan took the Little Sun to lead the way in front, quickly returning along the path they came from.

"Are you staying here because you have something else to do?" Asharuiya asked.

"Getting some local specialties," Lv Cheng observed the Undead crystal in his hand.

This thing was much more useful than Magic Energy recovery potions.

Since he was already here, it was better to get some stock in case of emergency.

"I also have some things to do, so let's part ways here," Asharuiya said.

"Mm, stay safe," Lv Cheng gently touched the sleeping Dark Magic Dragon.

"Take good care of our child; don't let it lose its mother just a few days after it's born."

Asharuiya looked strange, "You be careful too; don't let it lose its father just a few days after it's born."

"Alright, child's mother."

"……"

……

After saying goodbye to Asharuiya, Lv Cheng took the Liu Xian sisters to a graveyard area thick with Undead aura.

He could actually sense where the graves were; after all, these sleeping Undead possessed a massive amount of death energy. The thicker the death energy, the greater the number of Undead, and this area before him had tens of millions of Undead!

The most critical point was that there were no Monarchs here!

"Master, are you sure you want to play something this exciting?" Liu Xian was a bit nervous.

Although there were no Monarchs, if the number of Rulers was too high, the threat would also be very great. Being able to win once didn't mean one could keep fighting forever.

Moreover, Lv Cheng wanted to collect Undead crystals, so he couldn't use large-scale destructive moves; he could only fight them one by one.

"Don't worry, I have a helper this time."

As he spoke, the Dark Energy on Lv Cheng's body climbed rapidly, and in the blink of an eye, it shrouded everything within a radius of a thousand meters in darkness.

Siyue Rule—Darkness Descends!

"Next, I can activate the infinite troop-spawning mode." With a wave of Lv Cheng's hand, dozens of Warrior-level Claw Shadows and Scythe Shadow Soldiers quickly emerged from the black shadows, along with hundreds of Servant-class Ghost Shadow Ninja Corps.

The Claw Shadows and Scythe Shadows have the strongest melee capabilities, and their speed is extremely fast, making their combat efficiency the highest; letting them fight in the front while the Ninja Corps collects Undead crystals in the back is the most cost-effective method.

The black shadow soldiers before him are also the maximum number he can currently summon, or rather, only this many black shadow soldiers can exist at one time.

And after activating Darkness Descends, as long as a previously summoned black shadow soldier is wiped out, the next Warrior-level black shadow soldier can quickly fill the position and arrive in the human world.

Infinite troop-spawning!

Mind Ripple—Restlessness!

As the psychic fluctuations carrying the intent of Restlessness spread out, the Undead within a radius of several thousand meters all surged toward the core of the Mind Ripple.

"Alright, time to start farming the dungeon." At Lv Cheng's command, hundreds of black shadow soldiers quickly charged toward the Undead Army.

Lv Cheng and the Liu Xian sisters charged toward the Commander-level Undead within the Undead Army.

Commander against Commander, Warrior against Warrior; they are at an absolute advantage here!

……

"That is..."

Dozens of kilometers away from the battlefield, Asharuiya sensed the terrifying Dark Energy erupting from the Siyue Rule, as well as the roars brought about by the Undead unrest.

The Dark Magic Dragon also sensed this Darkness Qi, quickly waking up from its deep sleep and looking in the direction where Lv Cheng was.

"This father of yours is truly shrouded in mystery..." Asharuiya's expression was unreadable.

Such a powerful Dark Contract; has Lv Cheng already started researching Forbidden Art?

"Su Lu, Su Meng, Lv Cheng, your family is truly terrifying..."

One more exaggerated than the last, one more insane than the last.

Lv Cheng must have a special purpose for coming to the Ancient Capital this time, and he seems to have already anticipated the disaster that might happen next.

Could it be that he has already made contact with Salang?
