"I don't know how that Black Vatican bastard did it! However, this disaster was exactly the same as when I was in Bo City. Similarly, there was no warning. Similarly, there was a downpour. Similarly, all living things were in a frenzy! Maybe you think that the two rains are just a coincidence, but I think that everything is related. It is impossible for such a thing to happen without a reason. The natural disaster must be mixed with a conspiracy! "Mofan said.
The Ancient Capital had been safe and sound for so many years. Mofan did not believe that this century was destined to be plagued with disasters. If it was not God who wanted to punish people, it must be the meticulous plan of an organization that wanted to destroy mankind!
Mo Fan admitted that he did not have any evidence to prove that the Black Vatican was behind all this. It was just his intuition …
However, he had been through Bo City, and experienced the conspiracy of the Black Vatican. If it wasn't for the fact that the Underground Holy Spring was in his hands, and that they desperately wanted to obtain it, the Black Vatican would still be hiding in the dark, among the crowd. No one would be able to tear off their mask!
"You have to leave with us. Otherwise, you might not be able to reach the inner wall safely …" Zhu Meng believed what Mofan said.
Not long ago, Zhu Meng had learned about the Black Vatican's movements. They were making strange moves in different places across the country, yet the Ancient Capital was extremely peaceful, just like the Magic City in Shanghai.
However, the calmer it was, the more active they were. They were so precise and strict that they didn't allow any of the Blue Deacons or Gray Priests to reveal their whereabouts.
Mofan shook his head. The reason he told Zhu Meng about this familiar experience was not because he wanted Zhu Meng to help him escape. He only hoped that the information he provided would help the higher-ups make their decision.
"Then why are you still here? The army of undead is going to devour the outer walls soon. The area outside the safety barrier around the inner walls is a dead zone. A purple alert means that even Magicians won't be able to survive outside the barrier!" Zhu Meng lifted Mo Fan up. It was obvious that he was going to drag him away with brute force.
"I still have a few friends in North City. I have to bring them to the Safety Barrier …" Mofan said seriously.
When Zhu Meng saw the determination in Mofan's eyes, he loosened his grip on Mofan's collar.
"I'll send someone …"
"Don't. I can take them away myself. Your people are precious. Save those who should be saved. I've been cultivating diligently for the past few years, but in the end, I'm still the same as when I was in Bo City. I can only struggle at death's door in the face of this disaster … "Mofan said.
Yao Nan was right beside Mofan. He looked at Mofan and said, "Sure enough, as long as the people of Bo City hear the words' Black Vatican ', they will become very courageous."
"It hasn't been confirmed yet," Mofan replied.
"It can't be wrong. Our Clearsky Hunter Agency was assisting the Judgement Union in pursuing Salan. The scattered and uncertain information we obtained pointed to the Ancient Capital. Unfortunately, it was too late." Yao Nan patted Mofan's shoulder, as if he were in a dream. "I never thought that it would turn out like this. I've always heard about how terrifying Red Robe Salan was. Today, standing on the city that is about to be destroyed by the undead army … I'm afraid I will never forget this name for the rest of my life."
"Salan …" Mofan muttered the name with a perplexed expression. It was not the first time he had heard the name.
"My energy hasn't recovered yet. I can't help you. See you inside the walls," Yao Nan said to Mofan.
"Mm, see you inside the walls."
As a matter of fact, the words' see you inside the walls' had already been heard from the tower.
The Magicians had won a victory together, but they had lost half of the city.
Everyone had someone they needed to look for in this chaotic apocalypse. Instead of feeling hopeless here, it was better to set off as soon as possible. Therefore, there was only one sentence left …
It was a blessing, a hope, but it was more like a farewell.
…
It was not just the northern part of the city. The other three directions were covered in Purple Alert.
The outer walls could not hold on any longer.
After all, the outer walls covered the entire city. It was difficult to defend against such a wide area. Furthermore, the number of undead had long surpassed the number of humans. If they were to defend the outer walls, the only outcome would be everyone being swallowed and surrounded by the sea of undead.
Since the Purple Alert was triggered, it meant that everyone had to evacuate to the Safety Barrier immediately.
Mofan clearly remembered that under the Blood Alert, the chance of ordinary people surviving outside the Safety Barrier was close to zero. On the other hand, under the Purple Alert, even Magicians would have a hard time surviving …
Run, the only decision the people of the Ancient Capital could make was to evacuate and flee.
Every city had its last line of defense, which was the Safety Barrier. The Safety Barrier of the Ancient Capital was the inner walls with a circumference of almost fourteen kilometers. Despite the huge city being so far away, and the intertwining streets, blocks, and districts, he could barely see a golden barrier looming over the inner walls …
At the same time, Mofan could also see people running toward the inner walls like black dots. The roads were filled with cars that were blocking the way. Helicopters were watching from above, providing assistance …
Bo City, it was not even as big as the Northern District of the Ancient Capital. It was a magnificent city with a long history. Its population was almost a hundred times more than Bo City's.
However, the crowd was now in a race against time. How many people could make it to the inner walls before the undead army devoured the city?
…
"Squeak squeak squeak ~"
"Squeak squeak squeak ~"
The sound of the ground trembling and the deafening cries of the undead mixed together, sweeping toward them from behind like a storm.
Not many people dared to turn around. The number of undead was a lot more than what the Magicians had imagined. The force of their stomp was enough to shake the towers and walls.
Mo Fan gathered his courage and turned around to take a look …
Black!
White!
Gray!
Rotten Corpses, Corpse Generals, Skeletons, Skeleton Generals, Phantoms, and Phantom Generals were densely packed on the ground. The ground was shaking and rippling because of them!
The size of the undead at the Commander-level was outstanding. It was possible to see them standing out like cranes among a flock of chickens in the midst of the undead army. The Zombies, Phantoms, and Skeletons that made up the tide of undead continued to flow past them as if they had stumbled into a reef.
The scariest one was the Nether Bone Ruler that was circling in the sky and destroying a kilometer of the wall with a single breath of death!
It possessed intelligence. It was wildly destroying the walls that were preventing its undead from invading the city. The northern wall had collapsed for a few kilometers. The towers were destroyed one after another. The line of defense that the people relied on was as fragile as paper in front of the undead creature!
Mofan had no idea what terrifying things were on the other walls, but he could tell from the terrified looks of Zhu Meng, Du Xiao, Fei Jiao, and the others that the Skeleton-Winged Undead Ruler was not the scariest thing. The thing that had forced them to flee for their lives was the Giant Mountain Zombie that was controlling the undead!
