Chapter 1072 287: The Game Environment 2.0, Rise of the Half-Elves, Dragon Clan Project (10K)_3
Under such circumstances, with the conflict and disputes between the Iberian Federation and the Holy Briania growing increasingly intense, the battlefield they chose was naturally...
Right in the Northern Wasteland.
The contention between the first and second, even without a full-scale war, compressed the living space of the entire tribe. It was like a blitz in World War II, the Rain Village being ravaged by major nations in Naruto, and He Qizheng caught in the struggle between Wang Xiaoji and Jia Shaobao — truly a silent suffering in the heart.
Seeing a group of fearless players freely entering and exiting the rich lands of the Northern Wasteland now, it decided to just lie flat, maintaining basic order and nothing else.
Well... actually, they couldn't manage even if they wanted to now.
Cai Ketongshen and AS, Nai Feitian, arrived on this land tasked with striking the enemy under these circumstances.
But the terrifying scene in the sky made the two furrow their brows momentarily.
Suddenly, a fierce wind kicked up, and amidst the howling of thunder and wind, it seemed as if the distant mountains were being forcibly elevated.
Unsteady on their feet, the two fell to the ground, their mouths twitching as they watched figures slowly crawling out from the raised ground afar, their breath nearly halting.
What a terrifying monster this was.
It was like a massive skeletal centipede, spiralling atop the mountains.
The accumulating white bones resembled an endless rib cage, neatly arranged like a spine, each bone like a centipede's many legs piercing into the ground.
Soon, it raised its head and let out a piercing howl as if the howl dispersed the crimson thunderous clouds in the sky.
As it lifted its body and roared towards the distance, the two finally saw the true form of this monster.
It was like a twisted and elongated human body, its tightly arranged ribs exuding a sinister aura, and in front of it, towering pure white bones gleamed like treasures, with skeleton arms tightly clasped at the very center...
It was a terrifyingly dead face of a woman, magnified.
At first glance, it resembled a scenario of Junji Ito drawing enlarged head balloons during a mental breakdown.
Although in the game, it instilled Cai Ketongshen, AS, and Nai Feitian with a touch of the Divine Continent's shock.
"I am Anderson Rudel, the heir of Rudelson, the gatekeeper of the realm of the dead!"
With the roar from the human skeletal centipede, a ghost from the old era reappeared on this land at that moment.
With the roar came a scented pale halo that spread rapidly towards the distance, soon catching up with the fleeing footsteps of the two.
"Clang..."
With a collision sound, Nai Feitian stumbled back with a bruised face.
"What the heck is this?"
He couldn't help but curse.
Suddenly, he felt the ground beneath him loosen, and a pair of brownish-yellow muddy skeletal hands emerged, grabbing Nai Feitian's foot.
Nai Feitian acted swiftly, taking his spear and striking the ground in a digging motion.
Quickly came the sound of bone shards flying, he took a half-step back, then looked at Cai Ketongshen with a somewhat serious expression and said:
"Boss Cai, do you think it's useful if we call for reinforcements now?"
Cai Ketongshen rolled his eyes big time and couldn't help but retort: "Useful? Bring over all the members from your AS Club, then everyone gets killed once, that way you won't have to worry about your level falling behind them."
"That's a fine idea, except I think we can't last until they find me."
As Nai Feitian said this, the sky was suddenly overshadowed.
When they looked up, they saw a female head with a pale complexion and slight decay.
"It's a living being..."
The woman's head showed a faint smile, and the next moment, the two felt their bodies out of control.
They died.
...
[Location: Iberian Federation·Ingeland Duchy·Lancaster Titan City]
Kael slowly perused the book in his hands, and before long, he received an emergency communication from the Royal Capital.
"What? Large scale battle personnel missing in the Northern Wasteland?"
Receiving the news, Kael was stunned for a moment, then turned to shake the bell in the room.
Soon, Old White walked in, and Kael said in a deep voice: "Grandpa White, have [Mouse Eye] contact the undead to investigate the situation."
Old White nodded and went off to investigate.
This matter became quite serious, and before long, [Mouse Eye] reported back that many players active in the Northern Wasteland at that time encountered massive undead creature attacks, suspecting a top necromancer was stirring the disaster.
Before long, more specific information came through.
As the on-site witnesses, Cai Ketongshen and AS, Nai Feitian did not conceal the relevant information from the scene, and soon told the details to the person in charge at [Mouse Eye].
