Mu He was hanging at the same spot, his face completely twisted.

Not long after, he heard the same sound of heels tapping on the bricks, each felt like a sharp blade was stabbing his heart as they came closer.

”Senior...Senior Salan!” Mu He wanted to kneel on the ground, but he was unable to do so.

The woman's right hand was dripping with blood, and holding a fresh human heart. It was extremely horrifying!

She lifted her cold gaze, staring at Great Deacon Hu Jin hanging before her.

Mu He felt like the cold gaze had simply shattered his soul.

”You helped that kid to enroll in a Magic School?”

”Yes...yes... no...no...” Mu He was at a loss for words.

”You've brought up such a monstrous enemy for our Vatican, who even ruined my festival. I should be thankful to you...”

”No, don't, please don't, no… AHHHH!”

An utterly forlorn cry echoed from the ancient clock tower, like someone's soul was being torn into pieces. The cry lingered in the air for some time.Find authorized novels in Webnovel，faster updates, better experience，Please click for visiting.

When the tide of undead fell away, backup and support finally arrived.

Countless helicopters were circling in the sky, bringing supplies to the city. Construction crews came in bulk and started rebuilding. However, in order to prevent the undead from attacking again, they first built temporary places within three kilometers of the city walls to settle the people.

The rain finally stopped on the third day. The survivors were settled in the temporary buildings enclosed by tall walls, making them at least look safer on the surface.

Unlike Bo City, the city had coexisted with the undead for a long time. It was rich with resources, and it had existed for thousands of years. Even the greatest storm had failed to destroy it. The city would only be rebuilt after it was torn down, as most people were unwilling to abandon their property.

The reconstruction of the city did not take as long as the people had expected, since half of the rebuilding was done by machinery, while the builders were in charge of the bridges, roads, streets, and buildings. Each building would only require a few Earth Magicians.

The areas within three kilometers from the inner city were rebuilt first. They would slowly expand out from there. As long as the heart was still there, the Ancient Capital would slowly rejuvenate… humans were not as fragile as they had imagined. Despite the sorrow they had been through, those who survived still had to keep moving forward.

The meeting room in the bell tower...

Some fruit that was just brought to the city was placed on the meeting table. They looked fairly juicy, they must have been sent here via air transport from the south.

Not many people were seated at the meeting table, but they included Du Xiao, Zhu Meng, Han Ji, the mysterious man, and Yao Nan...
