Chapter 734 - Rat in the Bay 3 (1/2)

To the north of the Libiya Kingdom was a large mountain covered in ice caps.

It was Blanches.

Two years ago, unknown humans and monsters began to come and go on the mountain, which was meant ‘white hair’ in the ancient language.

They drilled holes in the mountain and began to build huge underground bases.

The base got completed six months ago, and as soon as it was built, hundreds of warlocks and undead moved there.

Hundreds of coffins lined up in a large cavity of 10 meters high and 300 meters wide.

Inside a transparent tube was a naked person in a green liquid.

People around it seemed dark as their body wasn’t getting used to the energy from the body.

If any general person encountered the energy, they would die in an instant.

However, there was one who enjoyed the energy with a relaxed face.

It was the Lich King, Arsene.

‘KulKulkul! It is a lot faster than I thought. It was really lucky for us to discover the Demon blood.’

In order to make the undead, a huge amount of Magi had to be used, which was the source of the Dark Magic, and special items were required.

However, there was a hole in the basement of Blanches where Magi gushed out.

It was the contact point where the Middle Earth and the Devildom meet, but the size was too small, so it wasn’t enough for life to cross into the Devildom, but it was enough for Magi to leak.

Thanks to the establishment of the secret lab in addition to the Demon blood, the undead process picked up the pace.

Thud! Thud!

As Arsene walked and stood toward a wall, the wall split and an entrance appeared.

As he entered through there, a small room appeared.

Ten coffins were laid down, yet an unusual amount of energy was coming out of them.

Even Arsene’s skin was tingling as he looked down at the undead that seemed like his kids.

“The working of the Advanced Lich and Death Knight are also going smooth.”

The 10 coffins contained Advanced Undead.

The Advanced Liches were like 9th circle wizards, and the Advanced Death Knight were Sword Emperor and were nothing short of Baymon and Hiros—the masterpieces Arsene had created in the past.

However, it wasn’t a single one, but 10 of them.

The moment they would wake, the continent would have to kneel for Arsene.

‘Kuku, no matter how strong Luke is, he won’t be able to handle this.’

It was when Arsene was smiling…

Brrrrrr-!

The magic communication tool in his hand vibrated.

He immediately infused mana into it, and a familiar face appeared.

It was Zemerton, the former elder.

“What is it? I told you to not call me for a while”

-I am very sorry, but I contacted you as I had something to relay.

Zemerton remained in Felipe on behalf of Arsene to look after the brainwashed heads of the Libiya Kingdom.

He was carrying out the task of infecting the Libiya people with zombie poison and brainwashing the Knights and soldiers.

When Arsene tried to calm himself, Zemerton hurriedly to the news.

“The Baroque Empire zombie spraying failed?”

-Yes, Master. Although they did spread the zombie disease, it was said that it had been suppressed completely after just four days.

After a moment of silence, Arsene yelled, “F*ck! What on earth did those warlocks even do? Wasn’t it easy to just spread the zombie disease!”

-It was said that the Holy Pope of the Arthenia Empire appeared and treated all the people who turned into zombies.

“What?! The Holy Pope appeared?”

-Yes, according to the officials who were keeping an eye on the situation, the rapid fast action of the Continental Alliance and the enormous divine power of the Pope prevented the spread of the disease.

Bang!

Arsene thumped his feet at Zemerton’s explanation.

Whether it was due to failure or anger, the floor of the basement cracked.

“Kuek! Why did that Pope have to appear…!”

It was Veronica III, who never left the Holy Imperial Palace.

So why did she move to the Baroque Empire?

But that wasn’t the end of the report.

Zemerton continued to speak with a trembling voice.

-A-and, master. Nemesis was said to be captured within a day.

At his words, Arsene made a flustered expression as if he couldn’t understand.

“What about Rudolf? As long as he is there, it can’t be captured that easily!”

No matter how the momentum of the alliance was going, he knew all about the core power of the Baroque Empire.

Besides, Rudolf was the Sword Emperor.

I thought that if such men of SS Knights fight, even the allied six nations would suffer.

-According to the report of the sources, before the fall of Nemesis, the Baroque Imperial Palace suddenly collapsed along with an earthquake, and the places around the palace too were down. It seemed that something unusual happened at the Imperial Palace, but after that, Emperor Rudolf never appeared in front of anyone.

If the enemy captured Nemesis and Rudolf didn’t even appear, it meant that there was a major problem.

“Is he dead?”

-There was such a rumor, and according to the separate investigation done by the Ministry of Information, its possibility of his death is quite high.

“Ugh, what is going on?”

The situation was turning into a direction where nothing seemed to be good for warlocks.

It was nice to see Rudolf die, an enemy he would have had to confront one day.
