As soon as the woman's life was cut off, the resentment around her quickly drilled into her body and began to corrode her soul. With the help of the resentment, the broken pieces of her soul slowly turned her into a complete soul and began to convert the pure energy in her soul at a speed visible to the naked eye.
Tainted and corrupted.
As soon as the soul appeared, the negative energy generated by the resentment covered everything.
An undead creature with white eyes and bulging veins crawled out of the woman's body while baring its fangs and brandishing its claws. As soon as she was born, her body became as solid as a real person's, which meant she must have accumulated a lot of resentment during her previous life.
As soon as she was born, she screamed —
Undead Roar was a talent that could shake the souls of all living things.
Angor's soul was not affected by the negative effect. He only felt a little discomfort, but nothing else. However, the other women who were still hanging on the scythes all died in the roar.
The newly born undead creature raised its white eyes and waved its claw-like hands at Angor, who was the only living person in the room.
Undead creatures had no sense of reason, and Angor didn't expect them to remember what they did for him. As soon as the undead creature came, Angor ordered his illusion to retreat from the room. With his real body hidden, the undead creature couldn't find him, and the illusion couldn't attack him either. Angor decided to lure the undead creature away.
The real culprit was lying outside. He would let the woman outside attract the undead creature's attention while he escaped.
But before the undead creature could reach Angor's illusion, several golden runes suddenly appeared on the walls. The golden runes formed circles of different sizes and surrounded the undead creature before it could reach Angor's illusion. The undead creature screamed in pain and disappeared.
"A magic array used to trap and teleport undead?" Angor had a rough idea of what it was used for.
Dark Castle must have some sort of mechanism to deal with the undead creatures after losing so many people. It seemed that this Magic Array was used to transport the undead who had died unjustly to the forest outside.
He looked at the naked corpses on the roof and sighed. Now he knew where the graveyard came from.
Judging by the number of undead in the forest, it wasn't just one person who did this. Maybe the whole of Dark Castle was bathing in blood to create so many undead, and that was why so many skeletons were exposed in the wild.
Bathe in virgin blood?
He suddenly remembered a book called The Glory of Legends that he read in Sunders' library.
This book introduced all the legendary Sorcerers that had been recorded in the southern region for the past ten thousand years.
One of them was a female Legend from three thousand years ago — Bloody Queen Mary. She was also from the Dark Castle and had tens of thousands of gigolos. Other than being extravagant and lascivious, Mary had another hobby that Prow knew of. She bathed in the blood of virgins every day, and it was rumored that she could stay young forever. However, after further investigation, she found that there were many ways to stay young. Bathing in virgin blood was basically useless. She loved to bathe in fresh blood purely because she couldn't bear to see young and beautiful women.
He didn't expect that the "bad habit" of Dark Castle three thousand years ago was still alive today.
It was already proven that bathing in blood did nothing except staining one's body and causing resentment. Perhaps Mary's achievements were so great that her descendants followed her blindly, thinking that they could regain their former glory as long as they followed her example.
It was foolish and pedantic. Dark Castle used to be a large organization, but now, it didn't even have a single truth-finder wizard. The strongest wizard in the organization was only level-2 Wizard Isabella. If it wasn't for the shady tree that was Fairytown behind it, it would have long been taken away by others.
Angor shook his head and closed the door of the room.
He returned to the hallway and saw the unconscious Dark Castle apprentice, who was still soaked in blood. Angor gave her a look of disgust. Still, the disgust did not push him to do anything extreme.
He didn't like bathing in the blood of living people, but he couldn't judge other people's actions based on his own moral standards. There was no such thing as a moral consensus in the wizarding world, and no one had the right to judge Dark Castle's actions.
Angor tried to walk around her, but after a few steps, he returned to the girl's side.
Looking at the female Acolyte on the ground, a thought flashed through his mind.
…
Venees was having a long dream. She bathed in the blood of a virgin and became a legendary wizard. She went on a killing spree and captured countless handsome male companions.
While she was having sex with her companions, a man with a creepy smile suddenly appeared in front of her. Before she could react, the man appeared on top of her and knocked her out with a karate chop.
Venees slowly opened her eyes and groaned.
She rubbed the back of her neck and groaned in pain.
"Damn it! Why is there another one besides that damned Diablo? He deserves to be caught." Venees was furious. Angor wasn't sure if it was because she was interrupted in her dream or because she was defeated twice in a row.
She stood up and looked at the blood on the floor. "Damn it. I need to clean it again. My professor is going to scold me again when he comes back."
"When can I learn Cleanse? I don't want to work like this anymore." Venees took out a rag and mumbled to herself, "When can I learn Cleanse?"
As she spoke, she subconsciously raised her head to look at the corpses hanging above her head. "They're all dead. How long have I been unconscious? Damn that intruder. He made me waste all my effort. "
Venees pressed the switch on the wall and let the hot blood in the bathtub flow into the drain. After the pool was emptied, she wiped herself clean and put on a thin veil. Then she went back to the corridor to clean up the blood on the floor.
Venees was still cursing and swearing when she heard a loud thud at the end of the corridor.
She jumped in fright and looked over.
It was pitch-black, and there was nothing there.
"Tai Ya? Larissa? " Venees tried to call out to the apprentices who lived on the same floor as her, but no one answered.
She put down her work, picked up a wall lamp, and walked toward the source of the sound.
After a few steps, she suddenly saw a black figure lying on the ground in the distance, motionless.
She could tell from the tattered clothes that it wasn't a member of Dark Castle. It might even be a man. Dark Castle didn't forbid male apprentices, but there were only women in the real Dark Castle.
It couldn't be the intruder who knocked her out earlier, right? Venees' eyes were filled with hatred and excitement as she slowly walked to the man's side.
She slowly walked toward the intruder and took out a machete.
But when she got closer, she realized that it wasn't the man she saw earlier. It was Diablo, covered in blood and in tattered clothes.
"Huh? Diablo escaped from the Blood Prison? Did he have some kind of treasure on him? " Venees's face lit up with excitement. She walked to Diablo's side and started searching through his belongings.
But after searching for a long time, he still couldn't find anything. Venees pinched Diablo's groin, which made the unconscious man groan in pain.
"Not bad, not bad. If it wasn't for Mister's order, I'd love to have a taste of you." Venees chuckled and tied Diablo up with a rope.
"I didn't think that I would be able to take advantage of you. When I send you back to the blood prison, Sir might even reward me. Hahaha! " Venees dragged the unconscious Diablo to the Blood Prison as she thought about the rewards she could get from this trip.
Not long after Venees left, Angor's figure slowly showed up.
"Shadow got caught? What kind of blood prison is this? " This didn't match the 'easy test' that Shadow had mentioned. Was it because he underestimated his opponent and was defeated by the apprentice, or … did something happen in between?
He considered for a moment and decided to follow Venees to see what was going on.
…
At the same time, on the first floor of Dark Castle, there was a tall woman in a black dress with a pair of black and white butterfly wings on her back. She was looking at the crystal ball in her hand with a sneer on her face.
The crystal ball showed Venees dragging "Diablo" to the Blood Prison with a big smile on her face.
"Look at that happy face after being tricked by an illusion. That idiotic look is exactly the same as Isabella's. " The woman in the black dress sneered at the mention of Isabella. "Isabella is a joke. What a disgrace to Queen Mary. Instead of trying to improve herself, she's always looking for shortcuts and crooked paths. She even hooked up with a scumbag like Puppet Master and came up with some kind of test. No wonder Lady Isabella chose to leave the southern wizarding region and never come back. "
The woman in the black dress looked back at the crystal ball.
She then looked at Angor again. "This kid has some tricks up his sleeves." If she hadn't been watching Angor's illusion carefully, she wouldn't have been able to tell whether Diablo was real or not.
However, even though the illusion was enough to pass off as reality, it still lacked a bit of logic. As long as one thought about it carefully, they would find a flaw. If Venees had paid more attention, she would have noticed that Diablo's body was covered in wounds, but there was very little blood on his body. That was strange. Diablo was imprisoned in the Blood Prison, so it was normal for him to be covered in blood.
"And why does this illusion feel like Mister Phantom's?"
