The rain was falling and the wind was howling, but the tower on the walls was awfully quiet.

After some time, Zhu Meng glanced at the person completely wrapped up in tight clothes and repeated with utter disbelief, ”Test...test run?”

A calamity, the blood of countless innocent lives shed as demon creatures invaded the city and massacred it turned out to be a test run for a bigger conspiracy targeting the Ancient Capital!

Everyone present was someone with great authority, higher-ups or reputable Magicians, yet they immediately felt a chill running down their spine upon hearing the words!

A test run...

Sacrificing thousands upon thousands of lives just for a rehearsal; was there anything crueler than that in the world!?

The cold rain poured down heavily. Everyone stared at the masked man who had just revealed the truth. It took them a while to calm the shock and fear in their hearts.

”The ancient king isn't fully awakened yet, but the undead rulers are already invading the Ancient Capital in the rain, ready to turn the whole place into a kingdom of undead as a great gift for the Ancient King awakening from a sleep that had lasted over a thousand year The eight undead rulers are led by the Mountain Zombie, but the creature is extremely cunning. It will not easily step into the city itself. It's extremely difficult to cross the sea of undead to attack it. If everything goes according to plan, the eight undead rulers will first take over the land outside of the inner walls and wait until the Ancient King wakes up, then destroy the barrier of the inner city,” explained the mysterious man in gray-white clothes.

The people had no idea who the person was, but since he had managed to show up here, it meant that he had obtained permission from some authority.

”The situation is already this grim before the king of the undead has even woken up. Will the Ancient Capital stand any chance?” asked Elder Ling Xi from the Hunter Union.

”It's not the king of the undead, but the Ancient King. The king of the undead has no control over the eight undead rulers. It must be the Ancient King, the person who created this Land of the Undead!” the mysterious man declared with utter confidence.

”The Ancient King?”

The very person who had created the Land of the Undead! If one looked back in time, the undead never existed before those who died two thousand years ago suddenly came back to life, spreading like a plague. The undead started roaming out of their tombs and mausoleums, and were now walking on the surface pompously!

The origin of the undead was most likely not a secret anymore...

”What help would we get from knowing all this, I'm more interested to know how we can stop this disaster,” said Ling Xi, who was studying the mysterious person calmly.

”I'm afraid the rain is only the first part of what the Black Vatican is planning. Their next step is to awaken the Ancient King. Once he wakes up, it will bring a bloodbath to the inner city! First of all, we must stop this rain!” said the mysterious man.Find authorized novels in Webnovel，faster updates, better experience，Please clickfor visiting.

”We don't even know where the Dew of Nine Serenities came from, how do we stop it? Is it even possible to stop the rain?” said Li Yujian.
