Platinum's Secret Discovered? The Ritual Begins

Evileye both curious and puzzled as to how the Dragon Lords King had increased his power.

Is it related to the repair of the Royal Capital's city walls?

That's not all; she also vaguely sensed a magical reaction within the repaired city walls.

"Dragon Lords Majesty, there is something I don't know if you are aware of?" Evileye slightly, his voice revealing a seriousness and solemnity.

"What is it?" Tang Zheng asked.

That's right.

"Not long ago, in the Great Forest of Tob..." Evileye gave a detailed report on the events concerning the Evil Tree that had occurred some time ago.

She had even tried to contact the Dragon Lords King, but had been unable to reach him, leaving her with many unanswered questions.

Evileye wasn't referring to the Evil Tree itself, but something else entirely.

After [The Black Scripture] left "Ye Lantier", [Blue Roses], who remained skeptical about the handling of the Evil Tree issue, secretly followed them.

only.

The [Blue Roses] group was too slow. By the time they arrived at the scene, the battle was already over, leaving only some shockingly damaged craters and blood-stained ground.

These traces all indicate that a fierce battle took place.

Lakyus and the others also confirmed that the Evil Tree had been destroyed, believing that the battle was caused by the [Black Scripture] and the Evil Tree.

But!

Evileye didn't think so, because she observed from afar the magical barrier that stretched for several kilometers.

That wasn't ordinary magic; it was Wild Magic!

As a witness to the destruction of the [Corpus of the Abyss], Evileye had seen the same Wild Magic with her own eyes.

In other words!

The battle that took place deep within the Great Forest of Tob involved the True Dragon Lord!

"Your Majesty the Dragon Lords —I suspect that the Platinum Dragon Lord of the Council State has clashed with the secret forces of the Slane Theocracy."

Evileye revealed the astonishing discovery she had kept hidden in her heart. This matter was far-reaching, and she did not tell Lakyus and the others about it.

I didn't have a precise concept of the "True Dragon Lord" before, but after witnessing the power displayed by the Deep Darkness Dragon Lord moment, I realized that...

Evileye deeply understood the indescribable terror and power represented by the words "True Dragon Lord".

"Oh, did that happen?"

Tang Zheng's tone was filled with surprise, as if he had just learned of this.

Lakyus and the others were secretly following the Theocracy side, and he didn't really pay much attention to them, since his focus was mainly on the Platinum Armor at the time.

"Ha, this is really interesting."

Tang Zheng felt a sense of absurdity, as if the Platinum Dragon Lord had painstakingly concealed his true nature only to have it discovered by an unexpected person.

"It turns out that Evileye was the first to discover this secret."

You should know,

Even the Theocracy has only tentatively deduced that the Platinum Armor is Silver, one of the former Thirteen Heroes, and may have been hiding within the Council State all along.

They didn't have the slightest doubt about the Platinum Dragon Lord.

Currently, besides Tang Zheng...

Evileye is probably the first person to know that the Platinum Armor is related to the Platinum Dragon Lord, but she is currently unaware of the Platinum Armor's existence.

but.

If Evileye obtains information about the Platinum Armor from the Theocracy, it's easy to deduce that the Platinum Armor is directly related to the Platinum Dragon Lord.

"This might be an intelligence tactic worth utilizing."

Tang Zheng's eyes flickered slightly. He felt that this intelligence was poor and there was something worth planning. Suppressing his thoughts, he asked in a dignified voice:

"Have the two sides, the Council State Slane Theocracy, taken any action?"

"From my observation, there is none." Evileye shook his head in confusion.

For the past two weeks, she had been secretly monitoring both countries. After all, such a fierce battle had taken place; things shouldn't be so calm.

"In that case, let's leave this matter here for now."

Tang Zheng said slowly in a profound tone, "Just pretend you don't know."

"Understood, Dragon Lords Majesty!"

Evileye nodded respectfully.

"Then let the magical ritual to enhance our strength begin!"

Tang Zheng fully spread his dragon wings and stretched his massive dragon body. The simple movement instantly generated a gust of wind that swept outwards.

Sharp dragon claws pointed upwards, Magic Scroll appearing in his palm:

"Seventh-Tier Magic - Undeath Army!"

The scroll was crushed.

Boom!

In an instant, dense Negative Energy was released from the Magic Scroll, transforming into a black torrent that fell to the ground.

The dark brown soil underground churned up!

Rotten, mutilated claws emerged first from beneath the soil, followed by a dense Low-Tier Undead crawling out of the ground.

In the blink of an eye, thousands appeared!

"Hiss!"

"Ahoo!"

"Singing -.-

A large number of Undead gathered together, emitting strange hissing sounds.

"The Undeath Army" can summon around a thousand Low-Tier Undead in one go. The first time it appeared was when the leader of the [Zurrernorn] alliance activated it through a ritual.

At the time, Tang Zheng didn't pay much attention to this magic. After all, no matter how many Low-Tier Undead there were, it wouldn't matter. Ordinary soldiers could kill a few if they were careful.

In addition, at that time...

Tang Zheng hadn't yet developed a new ritual for gaining experience using the "Spiral of Death Ritual," so he was even less concerned.

They regretted it later after developing a new ritual!

The Undead summoned by "Undeath Army" are Neutral Monsters, just like those summoned by "Benevolent Armageddon) ".

Only "Neutral Monsters" can gain experience through rituals.

"The Seventh-Tier Magic -"

Evileye's crimson pupils dilated, an expression of disbelief appearing on his face, his pale lips parting uncontrollably:

"Reel!"

Seventh-Tier magic belongs to the realm of Demon Gods. Although powerful, Evileye believes she already possesses some knowledge of it.

During my contact with the [Corpus of the Abyss], I witnessed higher-level magic, and even the Dragon Lords King possessed greater magical power.

But scrolls are a different matter!

It should be noted that among all human nations, the highest-ranking scroll is only of the Third-Tier.

The Seventh-Tier scroll before us is of unimaginable value!

Evileye a little confused about what the Dragon Lords King was going to do, but the next moment, her body began to tremble uncontrollably, and her expression became blank.

"Seventh-Tier Magic: Undeath Army!"

"Seventh-Tier Magic: Undeath Army!"

"Seventh-Tier Magic: Undeath Army!"

Tang Zheng continued to crush the scrolls, and astonishing Negative Energy condensed together, almost materializing in the air.

Like a tidal wave.

The air in the Royal Capital seemed to have been affected by Negative Energy, and it had become dim.

Countless Low-Tier Undead emerged from the soil, spreading outwards like a tidal wave!

This moment.

Evileye understood why the Dragon Lords King had repaired the walls of the Royal Road —it was to prevent these Low-Tier Undead from surging out.

One scroll after another!

Tang Zheng was too lazy to calculate it, because he knew the total number of scrolls.

Nowadays.

He can create a maximum of three Tenth-Tier blank scrolls per day!

Twenty sheets of paper of the same size can be used to make one scroll.

A Tenth-Tier scroll requires 350 points of magic power.

Tang Zheng's magic power is normally enough to create two copies, and with the special technique of "Mana Fast Recovery," he can create an extra copy.

Before the [Corpus of the Abyss] incident ended on June 25th, he possessed a total of 194 Tenth-Tier Blank Scroll.

Because from that period of time until now.

Tang Zheng then began designing the "Evileye Strength Enhancement Plan," producing only one Tenth-Tier scroll each day, and using the rest to create Seventh-Tier scrolls.

so.

He currently has 262 "Tenth-Tier Blank Scroll" in his possession.

"Seventh-Tier Papermaking" can produce 30 sheets of Seventh-Tier Paper.

To fully create a Seventh-Tier Scroll, not only is it necessary to activate the "Papermaking" spell, but also to infuse it with magic. During this process...

There is an additional 15 mana cost.

You can create 18 level Seventh-Tier Scroll per day!

actual.

In theory, Tang Zheng could create more scrolls, for example, by using Experience Casting, first leveling up one level, then lowering the level after casting the spell, and using Experience Points to create more scrolls.

This is only in theory.

For Tang Zheng at present, the disadvantages of doing so outweigh the advantages.

He now needs tens of millions of experience points to level up, and if he downgrades, his experience bar will be reset to zero.

You need to know.

Tang Zheng can gain 1.5 million experience points every day. If he repeats this operation every day, his 1.5 million Experience Points will be wasted during the downgrade process.

There is no other way to gain a large amount of experience in one go; if you do that, you'll be stuck at level 70 forever!

but.

Once you reach level 95 or higher, you can intentionally reserve a few levels as Experience Value Spellcasting, and use that for this kind of operation.

Boom! Boom!

The increasingly intense Negative Energy, during the release of the scroll, formed a nearly tangible black pillar of light that landed on the ground.

Tang Zheng currently possesses a total of 1224 "Seventh-Tier Undeath Army, each capable of summoning 1000 Low-Tier Undead.

Under near-numbness in operation.

Anyway, instead of crushing them one by one, several are crushed together.

Looking down from the air, the entire Royal Capital was filled with low-level undead, so numerous that their numbers were countless.

The gathering of numerous Undead created Negative Energy that stained the area black, turning it into a unique Negative Energy field.

If an ordinary person were to appear here...

They would probably be killed by the overflowing Negative Energy before they even got close.

"..." Evileye silent.

The scene before her eyes shocked her so much that she lost the ability to speak; her pale lips parted and could not be closed.

If it were Undead, which allowed her to suppress her emotions, she felt she would have fainted by now.

Every single time!

The shock the Dragon Lords King gave her was Taunt of her knowledge accumulated over hundreds of years, allowing her to see a completely new world.

god?

Evileye believed that perhaps only a god could do what the Dragon Lords King was currently doing.

An impulsive, pleading prayer arose within him: please stop releasing the scroll.

The Seventh-Tier scroll is a national treasure!

"No... ah, too..."

Evileye made a strange sound from her throat; with each scroll that the Dragon Lords King crushed, it was as if she herself was bleeding.

For a moment, even Undead like her felt a pang of heartache.

Tens of thousands of Undead?

No!

There are already over 200,000. The entire Royal Capital is filled with Undead, and they've even piled up on top of each other.

That's enough for now.

Tang Zheng's calm voice rang out, and he stopped activating the scroll.

I used about 300 cards in one go, and the number of Undead below has now exceeded 300,000. If this number were thrown into the Northwestern Continent, it would be enough to sweep across all human nations.

"Ahoo--Hiss!"

--Ah--Ah!"

The roars of the dense Undead below blended together, like bees magnified thousands of times, creating a near-tangible noise impact.

"Finally—it's over."

Evileye's eyes trembled, as if emerging from the depths of a lake to catch his breath, his voice shaking as he said, "Dragon Lords King—"

"Fly to the center of the Royal Capital." Tang Zheng did not explain.

"Ah, yes."

Evileye's mind went blank as he flew towards the crowded Undead below.

As fellow Undead, Evileye naturally did not suffer attacks from the many who were destined to die.

It landed at the designated location.

Tang Zheng nodded slightly, his Dragon Race- shaped vertical pupils narrowing, revealing a more serious expression.

Is it wasteful or not worthwhile to spend time and numerous scrolls on Evileye?

He doesn't think so.

In this New World, only three types of people can break through the level cap.

Dragon Race, Godkin, Undead!

Leaving aside the first two types, the number of naturally born Undead is extremely small, and most members of the [Corpus of the Abyss] belong to this type.

These Undead have no sense of belonging to humans, or rather, to any living being. If Bone Lord appears, the probability of them siding with him is nearly 100%.

But Evileye is different!

They are Undead born after birth, and they still have a strong sense of identity as humans.

"The ceremony begins."

Tang Zheng's eyes widened as he manipulated Super-Tier Magic Ritual he had specially arranged in this ruined Royal Capital.

Buzz!!

Each stone pillar in the city wall served as the outer perimeter of the ceremony, and a colossal magical ritual enveloping the entire Royal Capital emerged on the ground.

A deep blue magical light appeared, illuminating the area that was almost shrouded in darkness!

Constructing such a massive ceremony was a painful expense for Tang Zheng; if it weren't for his control over the resources of the entire Abelion Hills...

I'm afraid it's really impossible to arrange that.

"The Seventh-Tier - The Undeath Army!"

Tang Zheng, you immediately felt a pressure, opened your mouth and let out a majestic low shout:

" --Dispel Magic!"

Splash~

In an instant, over 300,000 Undead transformed into pure Negative Energy and began to dissipate.

Thump!

The air jolted.

The blue light on the magic circle suddenly became even brighter, and all the Negative Energy converged into Evileye's body at the very center!

"Ninjutsu: Detection!"

The opponent's aura began to increase!

"It's a success!"

Tang Zheng's eyes lit up. "Indeed, this kind of ritual can also be used on people from New World."

While pondering!

Tang Zheng raised his dragon arm and extended it towards the dense Negative Energy gathering below, only briefly touching it before withdrawing his arm.

"Unfortunately, the living cannot accept Negative Energy." Tang Zheng shook his head slightly, then looked at Evileye expectantly.
