"I was too immersed in the training of the Necropolis that I didn't notice the changes in the outside world. In the blink of an eye, I'm already here … The world of the Yellow Robed King, Carkesa.
My consciousness had spent some time between the lakes.
Speaking of which, are the souls wandering around here because Carkesa is the final destination of the Hybrid Demon souls, or because the Yellow Robed King took them here? "
Just as Han Dong was mumbling to himself, a voice came from behind him.
"Both." A reply sounded in his ears.
Before he knew it, a yellow robe had landed beside Han Dong.
The Yellow Robed King who had returned to his homeland had a new form.
A form that weakened his defense, lowered his mysticism, and greatly increased his soul affinity. He was also known as the Soul Prince of Carkesa.
The yellow robe that covered his entire body had turned into a light bandage that wrapped around his head, torso, and arms. The extra bandages floated behind his back.
The light bandage revealed his skinny body.
Thin white tentacles could be seen wriggling between the bandages.
Only the lower half of the yellow robe remained. The long skirt trailed behind him, giving him a dignified and noble feeling.
When the Yellow Robed King returned to the world under his control,
A horn-shaped crown was already fastened on the bandaged head.
His thin and withered fingers were pointing at the souls that filled the sky.
They may form clouds,
They may radiate light,
They may form black mist and rain,
"The souls of the Carkesa of the past were at least 50 times more than now … Due to the large amount of land deeds that I used as compensation and the division plan, no one managed this place for a long time.
Now, it has fallen to this state.
Of course, it's better than I expected. At least the basic system still exists.
Come with me. Even though there's nothing for you to do here and I don't need your help … as my messenger, you should take a look around this place.
Perhaps it will be of great help to your future cultivation of the Book of Necromancy.
You can also take the things that I no longer need. "
"Okay."
When he heard there was something for him to pick up, his interest was piqued.
On the way to Harry Lake, Han Dong asked curiously, "Do the souls of the Hybrid Demons gather here after they die? Or was it drawn here by you? "
"If all of the Hybrid Demon souls would come over on their own accord, I wouldn't have ended up like this. I was forced to sign all sorts of restrictive agreements and large amounts of land deeds as compensation.
Even my throne was almost overthrown.
However, there was indeed a problem with my management style back then.
Anyone who had seen the Yellow Seal, or passed by me occasionally, or dreamed of Carcosa … etc.
As long as there was a direct or indirect connection to the Yellow Seal, their soul would be attracted to Carcosa after death.
Naturally, there were also some individuals who belonged to other former kings, which led to conflicts.
Furthermore, my temper wasn't small at all back then. If anyone dared to come knocking on my door and ask for a soul, I would usually ask for several times, or even dozens of times the price.
Also.
Personally, I still have some thoughts.
Although I don't like to nurture emissaries or establish a church … I personally have a great need for souls and brains.
You've seen the 'evil' part, so you should understand.
A high-quality soul could make Carcosa stronger, and a high-quality brain could satisfy me.
That's how things got out of hand.
There were even a few old bastards who joined forces to suppress me. But now, I can understand why.
After all, eating other people's descendants and best students is a little despicable.
When you guys barged into the library, I would have sucked your brains dry and sewed your souls together into a carpet and placed it in my office.
Comfortable, it would have been comfortable.
But I think once the Void and the Grey know what's going on, they will make a move on me. "
Hearing this, Han Dong recalled the scene of his head being licked and felt a lingering fear.
"After all these years, I've thought it through. I need to find a 'relatively friendly' management style for Carcosa and try my best to get the souls from the outside to come to me willingly. "
"Are you going to establish a church?"
Han Dong hit the nail on the head.
"After much thought, this is the only way. Although it's a little annoying, it's something I have to do.
After establishing the Yellow Seal Church, I'll give the believers some gifts or guidance on their souls. When they die, they will willingly leave their souls behind in Carcosa.
As long as the church is big enough, the number of souls gathered in Carcosa will be enough. "
"Do you need my help?"
"Establishing a church is a slow process. I have plenty of time, so I can do it slowly.
All you need to do is take care of the library and store the Book of the Dead inside. "
Yellow Robe seemed to know Han Dong did not have much time, so he brought him here for a stroll.
In front of them was the famous Hali Lake.
It was said that all the souls that were led to Carcosa were baptized by Hali Lake to wash away their obsessions and willingly stay in Carcosa.
In fact, it was a kind of 'memory cleansing and thought injection'.
Once the souls were bathed in Hali Lake, they would become Carcosa's slaves.
From afar, on the other side of the lake, there was an ancient city that looked both real and fake.
At times, it looked like a yellow wall.
Sometimes it looked like a towering, dilapidated castle.
At times, it looked like a scattered village.
In short, due to the king's defeat and departure, the city was already in ruins.
After that, he and the king sat on a broken wooden boat and slowly paddled across Hali Lake. Occasionally, a tentacle would poke out from the fog as if it was spying on them.
The lake was not that big.
However, no matter how hard Han Dong paddled, he could not reach the other side. The ancient city on the other side was even more out of reach.
Unknowingly, they had spent an hour on the lake.
Han Dong could not help but ask. "Sir, are we going to the other side? I don't think we'll reach the other side … "
"That's right. The other side does not exist.
Hali Lake itself is boundless. What you see on the other side is just a reflection of the lake. "
"If the other side does not exist, then what is the ancient city on the other side?"
"What you see might not be the truth. With your eyes, you should be able to see it, right? Since the other side is a reflection, the 'palace' that we're going to is also a reflection.
The scenes of the ancient cities were nothing more than reflections in the lake.
The real palace is located under Hali Lake … "
At this moment, the camera zoomed in.
The wooden boat that Han Dong and the king were on was already deep in the endless lake.
A black shadow was slowly floating up from the lake. Compared to it, the wooden boat was as small as an ant … The entire lake shook as it floated up.
A large number of bubbles floated to the surface of the lake, forming more dense white fog.
"It's coming, Nicholas. Get ready."
As soon as the king reminded the king.
A large number of white tentacles rose from the lake and dragged the wooden boat into the depths. The sound of the wooden boat being crushed could be heard.
At the same time,
An identical wooden boat reformed from the white fog in the harbor.
