Everyone hurried forward as well. There were no traps on the other side of the Undead Barrier, and the moment they emerged, they found themselves atop a highland. It looked like the highest point in the area, likely one of the nodes used when the Undead Barrier had been set up long ago. Standing on the high ground and looking down, everyone froze.

If they had to estimate, that single side was at least several dozen kilometers long. Looking farther inward, it was obvious this was merely the outer city. Countless more buildings stood packed together within, making the place resemble a colossal military fortress.
Then again, this place truly was serving the purpose of a military fortress. Beneath the city spread a vast sea of undead creatures. At a rough glance, there were at least a hundred thousand, perhaps even a million, members of the Army of the Undead.
