Versatile Mage: One innate talent for each system

Chapter 90 The Tide of the Dead in Jiangyuan! (Please read on!!!)

"Am I dreaming? Am I dreaming?!" Mo Fan grabbed Zhao Manyan's shoulder and shook him frantically.

Zhao Manyan stared blankly at the shocking scene before him, completely dumbfounded, his eyes wide open, the overwhelming shock in his eyes was beyond words to describe or express!
Everyone stood frozen in place, their faces filled with shock and bewilderment, as if they were in a terrifying nightmare from which they could not wake up.

"Is this what a necromancer is? I've long heard that necromancers can contract massive numbers of undead, summoning hordes of undead that are even more terrifying than a beast horde summoned by summoners. But Jiang Yuan... this is just too terrifying!"

Lu Zhenghe felt all his strength drained away by the shock, his legs went weak, and he could barely stand.

Everyone watched helplessly as the surging tide of the undead, like a tsunami, swept into the swamp.

The giant lizards hidden in the swamp were instantly startled, and their enormous bodies burst out of the thick mud, stirring up large splashes of water and mud.

I don't know when it started, but the once sunny sky suddenly changed color.

Thick, inky clouds seemed to be pressed down by an invisible hand, hanging heavily over Qingrong City, as if a terrifying super rainstorm was quietly brewing deep within the clouds, making it hard to breathe.

Without the suppression of sunlight, these spirits are like demons that have broken free of their restraints!

An endless tide of the dead.
A tireless tide of undead
An undead, indestructible tide of ghouls.
This is the nightmare, a terrifying nightmare specially prepared for the demons of Qingrong City, which has finally arrived!

The overwhelming tide of undead, like a surging black tsunami, swept across the swamp with devastating force, and spread rapidly like a raging tide, engulfing the entire Qingrong City in the blink of an eye.

Whether it's the gigantic lizard-headed giant monster, the unpredictable pseudo-fear demon, the ferocious and brutal three-eyed demon wolf, or the bewitching demon spider, or any other kind of demon.

Before this overwhelming tide of the dead, they were all like tiny ants, instantly and mercilessly submerged.

This was the first time in their lives that Mo Fan and his companions had witnessed demons fighting for survival with such madness.

These normally terrifying demons are now in a panic, desperately trying to sprout wings and escape Qingrong City.

Unfortunately, even having wings wouldn't help.

Above the sky, countless ghosts swirled and danced like black haze, their sharp and mournful howls like blades, striking the hearts of every living being.

The seeds of death are growing and spreading wildly in the hearts of demons!

.........

Outside Qingrong City, a group of military mages came along the railway tracks.

"It's raining?" Lu Nian frowned as he looked at the dark clouds in the distance.

He didn't want a heavy rain to happen during the experiment.

"Should we wait for the rain to stop?" asked Jiang Yi, the female mage beside her.

Lu Nian shook his head: "No, you should know the importance of this experiment. It's just a heavy rain. Even if the mountains collapse and the earth cracks, it can't stop the birth of a new system!"

When he spoke, a barely perceptible longing was revealed in his words.

They continued toward Qingrong City, while in the shadows, unnoticed, a beautiful figure kept a close watch on them.

As they drew closer to Qingrong City, unusual sounds began to emanate from the city.

Those were the wails and howls of demons, as if they were going through something very painful.

Lu Nian found it strange, but did not stop the group.

After getting closer, they saw countless ghosts occupying every corner of Qingrong City, and even ghosts were moving around in the dark clouds!
They were so frightened that they retreated repeatedly.

"What's going on? How come there are so many undead here?!" Lu Nian exclaimed.

"What should we do? Should we still go in?" Jiang Yi asked with a serious expression.

"Damn undead!" Lu Nian cursed.

Mo Fan possesses a natural dual-elemental talent, making him, in Mo Fan's view, the most suitable subject for demonic experiments, where success might be possible. Furthermore, he could control a powerful demon, allowing him to do whatever he desired.

But with so many undead in Qingrong City, Mo Fan and his companions, being just academic mages with no real-world combat experience in the wilderness, had no chance of escaping.

In Lu Nian's view, Mo Fan and the others had all died inside, including his younger brother Lu Zhenghe.

"We're retreating!" Lu Nian said through gritted teeth, looking at Qingrong City with reluctance.

Upon hearing the order, everyone was eager to return to Anjie; no one wanted to face the undead.

But when they tried to retreat, an invisible barrier appeared behind them, blocking their path.

"what happened?"

Just as Lu Nian was about to step forward to check the situation, a huge black shadow, as large as a small mountain, suddenly descended from the sky.

It was a giant lizard covered in bumpy, fleshy growths. Blood was pouring down its body, and its broad, fleshy wings had been torn apart by something.

The giant lizard's aura was extremely weak, and it seemed to be on the verge of death.

"A giant lizard pseudo-dragon!" Jiang Yi exclaimed, and everyone retreated in surprise.

What on earth could kill a giant lizard pseudo-dragon with the bloodline of a subspecies of evil dragon?!

At this moment, another enormous white figure, dragging a large, ancient sword that was over ten meters long and dripping with the blood of a giant lizard, slowly emerged from Qingrong City.

The target is the direction of the giant lizard pseudo-dragon!
"It's an undead! Its target is the giant lizard pseudo-dragon. Let's get away from the giant lizard pseudo-dragon!" Jiang Yi shouted.

The others, recovering from their shock, immediately tried to flee the area.

However, they then realized that the invisible barrier had already trapped them like turtles in a jar, with only the direction of Qingrong City being unprotected.

"No, we have no chance of survival if we kill this commander-level undead!" Jiang Yi said in a deep voice. Upon hearing this, the military mages behind her immediately assumed a fighting stance.

Lu Nian knew it was impossible to avoid this commander-level undead, and a brown constellation suddenly rose beneath his feet.

"Eye of the Rock Demon!"

The brilliant star trails intertwine to form a picture, and the star charts reflect each other to create a magnificent constellation.

"Petrified!" Lu Nian uttered the last two words.

In an instant, a grayish-white light burst forth, shooting rapidly toward the Three-Eyed Underworld General. The air along its path turned into white sand and fell within a few seconds.

This demonic light, capable of petrifying even the air, landed on the skeletal body of the Three-Eyed Underworld General, instantly slowing its movements.

Upon seeing this, the military mage immediately began to unleash the magic he had been preparing for a long time.

Flames, tornadoes, lightning, waves.
The magic completely overwhelmed the Three-Eyed Underworld General!
Before they could even catch their breath, the skeletal figure still stood amidst the dust of the magical bombardment, and continued to approach them step by step!

A sense of fear began to emerge and spread rapidly!
The closer the Three-Eyed Underworld General got to them, the stronger their fear became. In the end, more than 80% of the military mages were overwhelmed by fear and temporarily lost their ability to cast spells.

On the other side, Lu Nian's magic was no longer very effective against the Three-Eyed Underworld General.

The Three-Eyed Underworld General had arrived before them, his towering, demonic body blocking out most of the remaining light and plunging them into complete darkness.

Lu Nian's heart suddenly raced.

The three-eyed underworld general raised his greatsword and swung it forcefully, sending them all flying into the air.

Before losing consciousness, Lu Nian vaguely seemed to see the trainees walking towards him.
