Versatile Mage: Lord of Space

Chapter 318 The War Between the Living and the Dead

After exchanging pleasantries, the group began to discuss Sha Yuan.

"Where the Abyss of Fiends appears, it leaves behind death energy. The Abyss of Fiends is already close to the ancient capital. I am not asking everyone to resist the Abyss of Fiends, but rather those who are capable should clear out the general-level undead that gather in the death energy after the Abyss of Fiends has drifted away. Meanwhile, mid-level mages should stay in the city tower and blast away any high-level undead that approach," Councilor Zhu Meng said loudly.

People who come here are generally willing to contribute to the ancient capital.

As long as you don't go to the Abyss of Fiends, there won't be any problems.

Eliminating demons is the sacred duty of a magician, and the magicians of the ancient capital are even more willing to guard them day and night.

There are about forty or fifty mid-level mages and six high-level mages here, which should be enough to deal with a lord-level undead.

"Hooray!!!"

Just then, a roar that shook the steel city walls came from the gloomy sky to the north.

Councilor Zhu Meng, Chief Instructor of Flying Horn, and Lu Xu, Commander of the Northern Wall Army, all changed their expressions and turned around to stare in horror at the enormous, dark figure...

A tyrannical demon!

Lin Lan had seen it before.

The situation has become even more serious...

Zhu Meng proposed killing the deposed emperor, but Staff Officer Zhu opposed the high command's risky move.

Hunter King Du Xiao appeared with the demon man, which finally convinced everyone to put the decapitation plan into practice.

However, before slaying the Ghost Tyrant, we must first deal with the Bone General, the Corpse General, and the Ghost General.

The difficulty is now much greater than fighting those two ferocious bone demons.

The psychological impact caused by the White Yin Ghost is undoubtedly the most troublesome.

The only way to deal with them is with the mid-level mages here...

"I'm sorry everyone, the situation has become even more serious, so please help us kill the Ghost Tyrant... We will deal with the Ghost Tyrant. What you need to do is clear away the biggest obstacle for us: the White Nether Ghost Minister and its White Yin Ghost Swarm," Zhu Meng said.

Defending the city is one thing, going out to fight is another.

One was already alive, the other accidentally never came back.

After the military commander explained the specific details, everyone agreed.

The only thing to deal with is the undead warriors; ensure the light magic array is activated...

If one person steps forward, more mages will choose to fight for the ancient capital.

For many students, being able to fight against a super-level mage is an unparalleled honor.

"Lin Lan, what about you?" Zhu Meng asked specifically. This kid Lin Lan dared to step on even the super-level mage Luo Mian, and his combat power was even greater. It could be said that Lin Lan was the number one person here below the super-level mage. Even the demon man might not be able to compare with the role of Lin Lan's lightning here.

Lin Lan might even call in reinforcements.

This kid has an incredible network of connections.

"Is there any benefit?" Lin Lan asked.

Lin Lan came to the ancient capital to make money, so she definitely had to ask Zhu Meng for some.

"If you don't help me, I'll tie you up and throw you into a pile of the dead. Didn't you say you were contributing to the ancient capital?" Zhu Meng said irritably.

“The situation is different, Congressman. There was no danger before, but it’s different now. Are you really willing to let such a promising young magician die here?”
Lin Lan's words put Zhu Meng in a difficult position.

This kid's potential is truly one in a million. If he were to die young, it would be difficult to explain to the higher-ups... Giving him some rewards would be a legitimate way to nurture him.

"Alright, alright, I'll give you a Soul Seed, but it has to be a regular one," Zhu Meng said.

Zhu Meng was also curious to see Lin Lan unleash his full power. He'd heard Wu Pingjing say that this kid was pretty awesome... With this kid around, hopefully fewer mid-level mages would be injured...

"Alright, watch me punch the Corpse Minister and teach the Ghost General a lesson. I'll handle things perfectly for you."

……

Mo Fan initially refused, but after hearing Lin Lan say that the probability of the undead dropping essence was extremely high, he stayed.

Who would turn down money? Besides, Mo Fan is exceptionally short of cash.

"Lanzi, lend me a copy of the Book of Constellations. I need to perform a Heavenly Flame Funeral to earn spirit essence to raise my child," Mo Fan said.

“You’ll have to pay me double back later. This thing costs twice as much here,” Lin Lan said.

Mo Fan glanced at the army of undead, then considered the potential profits, and decided it was a good deal, so he bought two portions.

It's time to enjoy the thrill of high-level magic!
……

"High-level mages are responsible for keeping the commander-level undead occupied. There are quite a few Ghost Tyrants around, so you don't need to defeat them, just delay them," said Military Commander Lu Xu.

There were fewer than twenty high-level mages gathered together, and 200 mid-level mages.

The main responsibility of mid-level mages is to provide cover and disperse the enemy.

"Lin Lan, you will lead this group of assembled mages. Make sure the Light Mage Corps is not attacked by any undead before the magic array is completed," Zhu Meng said.

"I've always been a solo person, not suited to leading others. I'll just take the Frost Thunder Eagle and kill a few more Corpse Ministers." Lin Lan isn't good at taking care of people and is used to hunting demons alone.

After hearing Lin Lan's words, Zhu Meng agreed and then sent the demon man over.

The war between the living and the dead is about to begin, as it has been on this land for thousands of years.

In fact, this was Lin Lan's first time participating in such a large-scale war involving many demons and monsters.

Previously, most monster hunting was done solo, while others hunted monsters with their own organized teams.

The Abyss of Evil didn't appear, the Corpses on the Mountain Peak didn't appear, the City of Undead didn't appear, so this place can't really be considered truly terrifying...

Lin Lan had actually expressed her aversion to war, ultimately because she felt too insignificant in the face of true power...

Though insignificant, we cannot avoid battle. In the entire world of France, battle is the fastest way to make money and the best way to improve practical experience.

The only way to become stronger is through this path...

If it can't be avoided, then we can only fight it out.

A continuous expanse of dark clouds. In the endless distance, bordering the land ruled by the undead, a colossal figure at the point of contact is constantly approaching, surrounded by a tidal wave of undead.

The dead are ranked, and those of higher rank can summon those of lower rank at will. They have no fear, no concept of life or death, only an endless greed and desire for the living.

It roared like thunder, churning in the sky, and the stench of rotting corpses wafted over like a sea breeze.

At the very center of the northern wall of the Great Wall stands a majestic watchtower, where countless mages prepare for battle.

At a command, four high-level mages—Zhu Meng, Lu Xu, Fei Jiao, and Du Xiao—charged towards the undead.

The mages also leaped out of this perfect defensive line against the undead, heading towards the blackness that people feared most.

Lin Lan rode the Frost Thunder Eagle high above.

Looking down from the air, all one could see was endless blackness and a gigantic, monstrous tyrant.

On one side are human mages radiating various magical lights.

The two sides are about to clash, and the war between the living and the dead has begun... (End of Chapter)
