Templar Elder Brown had a bad feeling ever since stepping into the Underground Tomb.

The Church was initially able to easily handle the surging attack from the Undead Army at the plaza. The strongest Church could however feel the Undead Army’s heavy attack and in turn suffer from heavy casualties when the Human Coalition gained a firm foothold under Yang Ling’s help, and even began taking the upper hand. Even the two Dark Templars had also met with tragic ends. The number of people they had lost was even more than a small group of troopers, which almost cause them to vomit blood from frustration.

His feeling of unease didn’t fade away and instead grew even stronger after he left the bizarre plaza and entered the perimeter of the Underground Tomb. Although they had killed many dead souls blocking their way throughout the journey, and had quickly proceeded towards the entrance of the Undeground Tomb’s inner circle as indicated on the map, he could still feel an unshakable feeling of danger as if there’s someone following quietly behind his group. However, he wasn’t able to find any odd fellows even after doing everything he could, other than the zombies, mummies and other dead souls that were roaming around.

They were met with a large group of Dead Soul Knights when they were passing through a mountain valley. After fighting for almost half an hour, Elder Brown commanded in a deep voice upon seeing the increasing number of dead souls charging towards them. “Quick, Odombra. Lead your small group of troops against them. Finish the battle quickly and leave this strange mountain valley!”

The uneasy feeling in him grew even stronger as the number of dead souls charging towards them increased. To prevent any other problems from arising, he waved his hand and sent a few Templars to deal with the situation personally. Although Odombra’s small Templar troop has lost two Dark Templars, they had remained powerful in strength. They charged swiftly towards the dead souls in their way after receiving the order.

“Thunderbolt Lightning!”

After murmuring for a moment, the two Light Templars with Magic Staff in their hands were the first to attack. The bolts of lightning that were shaped like snakes electrocuted the bunch of nearing Dead Soul Knights till they turned completely black. Shortly after, the invisible Odombra charged forward like a gush of wind. Where there’s a flash of silver light, there will be a collapsed Dead Soul Knight!

“Humph, go to hell. Go to hell, all of you!

Odombra’s eyes turned red as he thought of his two brothers who died in the hands of the dead souls. With the help of the two Light Templars, he killed off all the dead souls that were charging towards them in a frenzy. The Guardian Knights and Spellcasters followed closely behind and broke though the lineup of the dead souls, messing up the opponent’s formation.

With the help of several Templars, the Church Army exploded into a powerful attack, killing off all the Dead Knight Souls in their way frenziedly. They chopped their head off and pierced through their heart… to unleash their inner rage. The number of dead souls charging towards them decreased quickly under their ferocious attack.

Elder Brown heaved a sigh of relief as they got through the danger without any mishaps. However, as he was about to order for a sweep of the battlefield, a scout ran frantically over. “This is bad, Elder. We have got trouble. Outside…, there are loads of dead souls outside. We have been surrounded!”

We have been surrounded?

Elder Brown felt a shiver going through his body upon hearing the news. The dead souls rushed out like a tidal water around them even before he could react. There were heavily armored zombies, Dead Soul Knights with longspears, and skeletons raising their bow and arrows. There were even Skeleton Spellcasters with White Bone Magic Staff in their hands!

What was most bizarre was that while the other dead souls charged towards them messily and without any directions, the dead souls right in front of them had arranged themselves into a sharp triangular attack formation. The knights were at the front, the zombies were by both sides while the Skeleton Archers and spellcasters were in the middle. Their line-up does not pale even in comparison with the most outstanding human army, as if they have a extremely brilliant commander.

“Quick, head eastwards. Charge out way out, quick!” Elder Brown ordered with a deep voice after he regained his senses, and saw the increasing number of dead souls charging towards them.

The Church Army were left with a few thousand people, and he still had more than ten Templars with him. It shouldn’t be a problem to get rid off all these dead souls if they were to give their all. However, looking af the dead soul’s formation, it’s evidently almost impossible to achieve an impeccable victory. He wouldn’t want to waste all his energy on these dead souls.

The Underground Tomb was filled with unknown dangers. It goes without saying how terrifying its inner parts would be, judging from how horrifying the perimeter already was. Besides, even if they were to get lucky and find the Teleportation Portal, they would still have to deal with the Dark Association, Bellimore Family and the other great power. It wouldn’t be wise to waste too much energy on these dead souls.

“Kekeke, escaping? You are all going to stay here!” The Corpse Wizard King hidden among the Undead Army let out a loud crackle as the Church Army retreated hastily. He opened the Mind Magic Field, and started chanting the Bu Yi Language on the Jade Stele without any hesitation to cast the evil Curse of the Soul.

Within seconds, a scream emitting from a soul began to spread from the center where the Corpse Wizard King was. All the dead souls in its way felt a jolt through their body and started screaming loudly, bursting with a raging amount of grievance. They roared as they ran towards the Church Army.

The Undead Army lifted their heavy and sharp longspear, and charged into the Church Army’s formation on their Bone Horses. They fought with their lives and frantically attacked the Church Knights on the perimeter. The heavily armored zombies followed closely behind and quickly enlarged the holes in the formation that is torn apart by the Dead Soul Knights. The Skeleton Archers prepared their bows and arrows, and concentrated their attack on the Church’s spellcasters under the command of the Corpse Wizard King. On the other hand, the Skeleton Spellcasters produced rows of firewalls or strings of fireballs, to throw at wherever was crowded. They were unconcerned if their opponents were injured or killed, and the goal of their battle strategy was to kill or injure the Church’s elites.

For the Corpse Wizard King who was surging with magical powers, it wouldn’t matter even if his Undead Army would be wiped out, as long as they were able to kill and injure the Church Army on a large-scale basis as he would be able to form a new troop with another spin in the perimeter. His mission would be considered completed if he could kill off a large number of elites from the church.

Under the influence of the Curse of the Soul, no matter it’s the Undead Army or the zombies, they had all exploded with astonishing battle power!

A Church Knight could originally handle a few zombies or skeletons. However, the one-to-one combat ability for both sides were now comparable. Many of the knights on the perimeter collapsed as they were caught unaware, and drowned in the tide of Undead Army in a blink of an eye.

Thunderbolt Windstorm!”

Elder Brown was both shocked and furious with the astonishing battle power of the Undead Army that emerged out of nowhere. Not only did he sent out all the Church Template, but also personally casted his signature Wind Spells. A terrifying tornado appeared on the battle field in an instant, which sent the sand flying and stones rolling, and shredded all the frenzy-state dead souls that were in its way into pieces.

The Templar Warriors and Templar Spellcasters collaborated their attack at the crucial moment, and displayed their astounding battle power!

The Fire Templar Spellcasters summoned a Fire Dragon to roam among the Undead Army and to mess up the dead souls’ formation. The dead souls that were not able to avoid it in time were burnt into ashes. The Electric Templar Spellcasters summoned a lightning that spread across the sky like a snake, and electrocuted every single dead soul in its covered area till they were numbed all over. The Dark Templar swivelled the Full Moon Scimitar in their hands, and one by one sliced off the heads of the dead souls…

The dead souls were ferocious and unafraid of death in their frenzied state. However, their strength differed too much from the Church Templars and couldn’t pose any deadly threats to them! The two Dark Templars would never have died in the hands of a normal dead soul in the battle at the plaza, if they had not been caught unaware and couldn’t react in time, and had their souls damaged by the Crystal Skulls’ attack. This is also the reason for Elder Brown’s frustration.

“Humph, Corpse Explosion!”

The Corpse Wizard King snorted coldly as the experts from the Church showed off their power, and used the Corpse Explosion and Poison Explosion Spell. Within the area covered by his Mind Magic Field, every dead soul under his control was a bomb. Once they charged into the formation of the Church and self-explode, the Church Knights they couldn’t avoid them in time would have a layer of skin peeled off even if they avoided death.

After a series of explosion, the defence of the Church was once again torn apart to reveal a few loopholes. The dead souls surged up like tidal water and ignited more explosions. Even the few Templars would be drenched in blood if caught unaware, let alone the ordinary knights and spellcasters. The situation was getting more and more disadvantageous for the Church. Even if they put in all they have and won the battle, they would also have to pay a grievous price for it!

“Retreat. Retreat quickly!”

As the situation deteriorates, Elder Brown decisively demanded for a retreat to prevent even more losses. After ordering for Odombra to lead to Church Templars and a troop of knights to shield their retreat, he used the Thunderbolt Wind Spell to cut their way out, led the army through the attacks and retreat towards the east.

Although the Church has suffered heavy losses in the plaza, they still commanded more respect than a common man, and still had their powerful strength. No matter how strong the Corpse Wizard King was, he wouldn’t be able to force them to stay after their decisive retreat. The church soon broke though and escaped.

“Humph. Since you have the guts to stay behind and shield their retreat, come and receive your death. Present you blood essence and souls!” The Corpse Wizard King decided not to force it after understanding that he wouldn’t be able to trap the main power of the Church. He commanded the Undead Army to surround Odombra and the rest of the people who stayed back to shield the retreat, and initiated waves of intensive attacks.

Probably knowing that they have no other way out, the Church Knights who stayed behind to keep guard where unusually ferocious and frenziedly started a blood war with the Undead Army. However, the number of people on both sides had differed too much, and their number decreased under the attack of the murderous dead souls. With the protection of the Corpse Wizard King, the series of Poison Explosion and Corpse Explosion has also left Odombra Ang the other three Church Templars drenched in blood. Their movements started to slow down and became more retarded in their reaction after contracting the Corpse Poison.

“Kekeke, the blood and souls of the Church Templars were indeed flavourful’” The Corpse Wizard King who has blended within the Undead Army managed to launch a sudden attack, and crackled loudly after sucking on a Dark Templar’s blood and soul. He then shifted his position quickly and waited for an opportunity to attack Odombra and the other Templar.

“Humph. Let’s go, Michael!”

Looking at the unpredictable Corpse Wizard King and the Church’s main power that had long gone, Odombra decided to retreat after much deliberation. He said as he pulled out a Teleportation Scroll and aimed to bring the Templar named Michael back to Elder Brown. However, even before he could let out a breath after stepping into the Teleportation Portal, he felt a pain on his back as a sharp dagger was launched into him. At the same time beside him, Michael suddenly had his body crawling with terrifying scorpions, and lifted up mid-air by the large Dark Dragon King who torn him into half while still he was still alive.

“Hehe. Don’t leave since you have already stayed back to shield their retreat. I just happen to be missing a puppet!” Yang Ling said as he slowly took out the sharp Blood Elf Dagger and pressed his right hand on Odombra’s head, and started chanting the Wizard Mantra to cast the Puppet Spell.

“You… So it’s all because of you…” Twisting his head to see Yang Ling who appeared suddenly behind him, Odombra finally understood that everything was orchestrated by lord Yang Ling, and understood why the two Dark Templars had died in the hands or the ordinary dead souls previously.

Looking at the direction which Elder Brown had left, Odombra tried to move his mouth to send out this shocking news. However, he began to lose his consciousness as a cold feeling entered his body. He couldn’t even move his fingers, much less opening his mouth to scream.
