Lagulin's mount was the first to bite down. It crushed the head of the skeleton warhorse that had fallen to the ground with a single bite. The soul fire in the skeleton warhorse's head was devoured by it.
This was an ability every Undead had, Undead Devour.
The world of Undead creatures had always been this cruel. They would always devour each other …
But most of the time, it was Higher Undead devouring Lower Undead.
It was just like Lin Yun's Bone Plane. In the desolate black wasteland, a Bone Devil could devour the Soul Fire of any Skeleton Warrior to replenish itself, but a Skeleton Warrior devouring a Bone Devil's Soul Fire was like a dream.
The legendary Undead Plane was the same, it was even crueler and more naked.
In the strict hierarchy of the Undead World, it was almost impossible for a Lower Undead to devour a Higher Undead. There was no need to consider the difference in power, just the difference in ranks was enough to make a Lower Undead tremble when facing a Higher Undead. Let alone devouring a Soul Fire, even moving a finger would be very difficult.
But Lagulin and Barton, summoned by the Book of Death, were clearly an exception.
Because Lagulin and Barton were both summoned from the Book of Death and completely obeyed Lin Yun's orders, there was no difference in ranks. They would even dare to face an Orachiss, let alone a dying Death Horseman.
As a result, this strange scene appeared before his eyes …
Two Low Level Undead creatures were actually eating a High Level Undead creature, happily devouring its soul fire. If it weren't for the fact that Undead creatures had limited means to express their emotions, perhaps these two guys would have smacked their lips a few times …
As the Death Horseman let out a blood-curdling screech, its Soul Fire turned into two dark blue flames that rushed out of the holes in its helmet and rushed towards Lagulin and Barton.
After a dozen seconds, the Death Horseman's screams became softer and softer before thoroughly dissipating.
His soulfire was split up and devoured by Lagulin and Barton while he was still alive.
After devouring the Soul Fire of that level 38 Death Horseman, the death aura around their bodies surged and their aura became stronger and stronger.
It seemed that these two fellows would advance once they completely digested the Death Knight's Soul Fire.
The level 36 Lagulin would definitely advance to level 37. As for the level 37 Barton, even if he couldn't advance to level 38, he would at least reach the peak of level 37!
After all, from level 35 onwards, the gap between each rank was huge, just like the 5th Rank of the human Archmages, which was a huge divide.
Every increase in level brought about a massive improvement. For example, Lin Yun didn't even summon Lagulin and Barton to participate in the battle.
Although it seemed like it was only one or two levels lower than the Level 38 Death Knight, the difference in combat strength was simply overwhelming.
If it was released, it would probably be cut into pieces by the Death Knight, wasting its mana.
Moreover, he didn't have any mana to waste on these two fellows during the battle just now.
Lin Yun looked at Lagulin, who was sure to level up, and Barton, who had greatly improved, and felt happy. The difference between level 36 and 37 was huge. Once Lagulin reached level 37, his power would definitely increase by leaps and bounds.
Especially that level 38 Death Knight. It looked very special, its fighting strength was a lot higher than an ordinary Death Knight's. Lagulin absorbed his Soul Fire, and as a Death Knight, he might awaken a Death Knight's runic ability after levelling up. That would be a huge gain.
After happily putting away the two High Undeads, Lin Yun sensed that the Truth Chapter wasn't completely well-behaved, so he didn't flip to the page of the Book of Death. As long as he didn't open it, it definitely wouldn't be able to overturn the heavens, and he had plenty of methods to make the Truth Chapter completely well-behaved.
After the battle was over, Reina sat on the ground without a care for her image, while Xiuban was sprawled on the ground like a dead fish, not reacting for a long time. Lin Yun didn't know whether to laugh or cry as he heard Xiuban's snoring getting louder and louder.
If that puppet hadn't been a Heaven Rank Puppet with a Hydra Heart and God Blood as its mechanical system, it would have already fallen apart after such a long battle.
Lin Yun was a bit pale. The mana consumption during the battle had been too huge, and more than half of the mana of a spirit mana crystal had been extracted.
Shawn didn't react for a long time, returning to the True Spirit Magic Tool without getting a mana crystal. The Giant Spirit Magic Staff's Incarnation also didn't react. The consumption this time wasn't small.
Anderfa still hadn't returned to the Magic Tool Incarnation, but his three faces looked exhausted. Fortunately, the Ten Thousand Spell Wheel had been using Low Tier Fire Spells, and the Ten Thousand Spell Wheel had a huge Elemental Amber. Otherwise, Anderfa would have already collapsed from exhaustion.
Just as the Death Knight died, Anderfa's three weary faces stared at the Death Knight's one-handed sword.
"Merlin, that sword is a good thing, put it away and let me study it."
Lin Yun looked at Anderfa with disdain. That Death Knight had used a first-rate Runic Spell. Lin Yun had thought that the Death Knight had been lucky and had used two. Lin Yun might have also thought that the Death Knight was one in a million and used three first-rate Runic Spells. Especially since each of the Runic Spells was engraved on that one-handed sword. As long as one wasn't an idiot, they would definitely know that there was something wrong with that sword!
Especially now that Anderfa was shamelessly trying to snatch it, Lin Yun would be an idiot if he didn't understand.
Shawn seemed to be greedy for mana crystals, but he wanted to recover to his peak state and even go a step further.
Anderfa usually didn't say anything, but when he opened his mouth, it was bound to be a good thing. Every minor thing could greatly increase his strength. This time, he was shamelessly trying to hide it. Lin Yun unhesitantly snatched that one-handed sword.
Anderfa awkwardly smiled. At this time, that level 38 Death Knight's helmet fell off as he died.
Behind the visor was an ashen face. His facial features were sharp and angular, and he looked very valiant. However, his eyes were empty and lifeless.
Seeing that face, Anderfa didn't care about tricking Lin Yun into spitting out the thing he had eaten. After taking a closer look, he let out a cry of alarm.
"I was wondering why he looked so familiar, turns out it's him!"
Lin Yun was a bit surprised.
"Did you know him when he was alive?"
Anderfa shook his head.
"I only knew him, and he had already been a Death Knight for a long time when he became famous."
Lin Yun was puzzled.
"Are there any famous Death Knights apart from the first generation?"
This was the truth. During the Planar Colonization Era, there were many famous Death Knights, but they were all from the Undead Plane. Lin Yun didn't think that there was anyone in this era who could recognize a Death Knight from the Undead Plane.
Anderfa made a hand hold the chin of the middle-aged man's head as he earnestly explained.
"This guy can be considered a first-generation Death Knight!"
Lin Yun was startled.
"This … This guy is from the Ascian Dynasty?"
'Heavens, this is really strange. That level 38 Death Knight is actually from the Era of Gods, no wonder he is so tyrannical, he is even stronger than a level 39 Death Knight.'
Anderfa casually said.
"This guy is called Dean Westchester, he is the disciple of Noscent's first Death Knight …"
In the distant Ascian Dynasty, when the world was ruled by the 72 Gods, there was a human subordinate of the Death Lord. He was called Ryan Mograine. This was very rare in the Era of Gods, where powerhouses emerged in large numbers. Moreover, Mograine himself was only a 1st Rank Archmage, which was even rarer.
Although Mograine was only a 1st Rank Archmage, his talent was greatly appreciated by the Death Lord. At that time, the wars between Gods were very frequent, and Mograine's wisdom brought many victories to the Death Lord. He was the one who brought the most victories to the Death Lord.
Unfortunately, Mograine was only a 1st Rank Archmage in the end. No matter how high his wisdom was, he would still die.
Not only did the war between Gods not stop, it actually became even more intense. The Death Lord wasn't willing to let Mograine fall into an eternal slumber, so he resurrected Mograine in his own God Nation.
However, there was a deviation in the resurrection process that even the Lord of Death did not expect. After the resurrection, Mograine lost his memories and even lost the intelligence that the Lord of Death admired. Instead, he gained a new intelligence.
It was as if his soul had changed. His memories became blank, and his body became that of the Living Dead.
The Death Lord was very disappointed, but he wasn't willing to lose such a capable general. He kept transforming Mograine, and the final result was the birth of Noscent's first Death Knight.
He lost his original wisdom and became an immortal Undead. But Mograine's fighting strength became very formidable, and he even beheaded a few Heaven Rank lifeforms.
In the following days, Mograine, who had turned into a Death Knight, found many people who had the same experience as him.
After being resurrected, they became the Living Dead, and their memories also disappeared.
Mograine accepted these people as his disciples and taught them to become Death Knights. These people could be considered Noscent's first generation of Death Knights.
Westchester was one of Mograine's many disciples.
