Mystery: Starting with the Night Pope.

Chapter 348 Attack

"They will not participate in this war," Azik Eggers replied. "And this will be the last time I appear as the 'Death Archon,' after which I will be just an ordinary Death Angel."

"Alright, let's begin." Bernadette wasn't surprised. The Eggers family knew perfectly well that "Emperor of the Underworld" had died at the hands of "Supreme Dream," but they were still wise enough not to attack the Dream Cult. Otherwise, even Sibelon wouldn't have survived.

Azik reached out and opened the spirit world, took out a crown, and put it on his head.

This is the Golden Phoenix Crown, a symbol of the Regent of the Byron Empire.

"Arise, my soldiers," Azik Eggers called softly as he stood on the land of Byron.

Rumble!

At this moment, the entire land belonging to the ancient Bailang Empire trembled slightly. Deep within the spirit realm, an ancient aura was awakening, and an even more powerful force was reconnecting with this land of Bailang.

"The underworld! It's the underworld!"

At this moment, anyone with knowledge of the underworld, whether extraordinary or ordinary, immediately realized what this was.

That is the divine kingdom of the Underworld Emperor, the final resting place of the dead!

After the great war at the end of the Fourth Age, the connection between the Underworld and the southern continent of Byron was severed, making it impossible to recreate the state of humans and ghosts living together in the Fourth Age. Now, this connection has been rebuilt by Azik Eggers.

—When Hades was still alive, He, the "Death Archon," was the second-highest authority in the Underworld. Now that Hades is dead, Azik Eggers is theoretically the master of the Underworld!

"Is this the army of the dead?" Bernadette looked at the increasingly clear projection of the underworld in the sky and vaguely saw countless pairs of open eyes that shimmered with an eerie blue light.

Legend has it that this army was personally created by the Hades Emperor after his defeat in the First Imperial War, in order to avenge his defeat and take revenge on the Solomon Empire.

Bernadette even knew that this army was not just a bunch of undead, but also had the authority to wage war and perform rituals.

This army was originally prepared by the Underworld Emperor for the Second Imperial War. Without "Supreme Dream," this army would have definitely unleashed a pale disaster on the Northern Continent.

There are many reasons why the Byron Empire collapsed so quickly at the end of the Fourth Age, one of which was the disappearance of the undead army.

With the fall of the Underworld Emperor and the disappearance of the Consul, the vast Byron Empire could not find anyone capable of controlling this army and could only be buried in the lost Underworld.

Yes, even the other Sequence 2 "Death Archons" do not have that authority!

Even after the Eggers family rediscovered the "Pale Emperor's" characteristics, they still couldn't control this army.

Now, the true ruler has returned, reawakening this army of the undead.

……

"What's going on?" Klein and the others all sensed the slight tremor of the ground.

A sense of impending doom made them halt all their actions.

They all looked up; the sky had darkened considerably, and it seemed as if a vast world overlapped with reality.

"It's the underworld," Cattleya said softly, a hint of purple light flashing in her eyes.

"Is it the underworld of the Underworld Emperor?" Klein asked curiously.

"Yes," Cattleya nodded, "but this is the first time the Underworld has manifested in the real world since the fall of the Underworld God."

"The Underworld Emperor..." Klein immediately thought of Mr. Azik; perhaps only the son of the Underworld Emperor could accomplish this.

"This is aimed at the Rose School," Klein said confidently.

Mr. Azik and Bishop Truman are friends and share a strong aversion to the Blood Worshippers, so it's quite reasonable for him to join the fight against the Blood Worshippers.

"You seem to know something?" Cattleya gently pushed up her glasses and glanced at Klein.

Klein was about to say something, but his brow twitched, and he immediately shut up. His body moved faster than his brain, and he quickly threw out a paper figure.

The paper figure swelled into a knight clad in heavy black armor. With a single sweep of his sword, the massive blade, as large as a door panel, cleaved through the incoming earth, rocks, and trees.

"The Fairy Tale Descends - The Dark Knight".

Since being promoted to "Fairy Tale Mage" more than half a month ago, Klein has become even more adept at using "Fairy Tale Descent".

He even combined "fairy tales descending" with paper figures, giving fairy tale characters a sense of texture and making them appear in the real world.

laugh!

"Zatwin!" Miss Sharon suddenly let out a silent shriek, and an invisible sound wave swept up the dust and leaves on the ground, all rushing towards the suddenly appearing figure.

These things seemed to have come to life out of thin air, like an army charging towards that figure.

"I never expected you to become a demigod. You truly are worthy of being His student."

A man dressed in a black divine robe emerged from the shadows, his eyes fixed on Miss Sharon with an undisguised fierce and malicious gaze.

This was precisely the hunting target that Klein and his companions had come to hunt.

The strange occurrences in the underworld just now made Klein and his group consider retreating, but the other side wasn't entirely undetected.

He launched a decisive counterattack, catching Klein and the others completely off guard.

However, at the crucial moment, Klein's irrational spiritual intuition came into play, and he subconsciously launched a counterattack.

"There are many things you haven't considered, such as the fact that you're going to die here today!"

Maric roared, and the vengeful spirit shrieked as it pierced Zatwin's head.

"You've reached the 'Wraith' level too." A hint of apprehension flashed in Zartwin's eyes. The advancement through the "Prisoner" path was more uncertain than other paths, and it was already incredible that he had been able to advance in such a short time.

"Something unexpected happened, so let's settle it here." Sharon, the "puppet," vanished and appeared directly opposite Zartwin. An invisible wave rippled as the two "puppets" locked eyes.

The entire land trembled violently, and countless rocks and soil were ripped from the ground, each becoming a "puppet" soldier who began to strangle each other.

"A demigod is really an exaggeration." Leonard was amazed as he watched Miss Sharon become so powerful, and at the same time he began to summon the spirit he had contracted.

The fighting power of a "Spirit Shaman" mostly resides in these spirits, which is very similar to that of a "Puppet Master," except that the spirits of a "Spirit Shaman" have autonomy.

Leonard tapped his teeth lightly, releasing the natural spirit that resided within them.

There are three in total, which is his current limit, but these three natural spirits all have combat power equivalent to Sequence 5!

This was Klein who attracted Leonard from the spirit world with the terrifying charm of his "dreamlike" approach, promising him a wisp of dreamlike phosphorescence, equipping him with a top-tier nature spirit.
