The rain was pouring, and the wind was howling, yet the watchtower was completely silent.
Some time later, Zhu Meng stared at the man in front of him in disbelief. He blurted out in disbelief, "A … a rehearsal?"
It was a disaster, a bloodbath that would turn a small city into a massacre by the demon beasts. It was all just a rehearsal for the bigger conspiracy that was about to take place in the Ancient Capital!
Everyone present was an authority, an authority, and a Supreme Magician, yet they could not help but feel a chill down their spines after hearing the words!
A rehearsal …
Using thousands of lives as a rehearsal, was there anything crueler than that in this world!?
The cold rain continued to fall. The crowd stared at the masked man who had exposed the truth. Their hearts were filled with astonishment, unable to calm down.
"The Ancient King has yet to fully awaken, but the Undead Rulers are already invading the Ancient Capital with the help of the rain. They are planning to turn this place into a bigger kingdom of undead, as the Ancient King's first gift after waking up from a thousand years of slumber … the Undead Rulers are led by the Mountain Zombie, but the Mountain Zombie is extremely cunning. It won't easily set foot in the city. It's extremely difficult to kill it and intimidate the army of undead. Therefore, if everything goes according to plan, the Undead Rulers will first invade the land outside the inner walls of the city, and wait for the Ancient King to awaken, before destroying the inner city's heritage barrier," said the mysterious man.
The crowd had no idea who the man was, but since he was here, it was obvious that he had received permission from some authority.
"The Ancient Capital is already in such a state before the king has awakened. Can the Ancient Capital still hold on?" said Elder Ling Xi of the Hunter Union.
"It's not the Undead Ruler, it's the Ancient King. The Undead Ruler doesn't have the ability to command the Undead Rulers. It must be the Ancient King, the person who created the Land of the Undead! "said the mysterious man firmly.
"The Ancient King?"
If one were to look back at the history of the person who created the Land of the Undead, the undead actually did not exist. However, two thousand years ago, the creatures that were resurrected after they died spread like a plague. They were initially roaming in tombs and tombs, but now, they were roaming across the land!
It was most likely no longer a secret as to how the undead came to be.
"What's the point of knowing all this? I'd rather hear how to resolve this calamity." Ling Xi calmly looked at the mysterious person and said.
"I'm afraid the rain is only the first part of the Black Vatican's grand plan. The second part is to awaken the Ancient King. Once the Ancient King awoke, the inner city would turn into a pool of blood! First of all, we have to stop the rain, "the mysterious man said.
"We don't even know where the Dew of Nine Serenities comes from, so how are we going to stop it? How are we going to stop the rain?" Li Yujian said.
"The destruction of the villages was not caused by the undead, but by the Black Vatican. The Dew of Nine Serenities came from the Water of Kun that the villages had been guarding for generations. The rainwater from the Calamity of Bo City contained the Berserk Spring, which had the opposite effect to the Geyser Spring, causing the Demon Wolves to attack Bo City. The Dew of Nine Serenities was also transformed from the Water of Kun, and came from the same Medicine Master, allowing them to perfectly blend into the rainwater. Once the rain came, disaster would follow! It's also the reason why we need a rehearsal, "the mysterious man explained.
The authorities of Bo City had heard about the details of the Calamity of Bo City. It did not seem to have anything to do with the Calamity of the Ancient Capital, apart from the fact that it happened on a rainy day. However, after connecting the dots, they realized that it was all part of the plan!
The problem was, who would have thought of it before the calamity happened?
The Red Cardinal Salan's way of doing things was not only infuriating, but it had also caught everyone off guard. By the time they realized it, they were already on the verge of despair!
Using a city as a rehearsal, and a thousand-year-old ancient capital as a burial object, hiding the storm that was brewing under the cover of calmness. The Heavens had given the Black Vatican Cardinal Salan the heart of a demon, and had given him incomparable wisdom and strategy. It was the most terrifying part!
The Enforcement Union had been pursuing Salan for years, yet they had only captured the Blue Deacons under him.
Salan's real shadow was still hiding in the darkness. He was looking down at the ancient city that was struggling between suffering and death with his cunning eyes, letting out a sharp grin!
"A village in danger … it's a village in danger …" the Chief Military Instructor Fei Jiao murmured with a blank look.
"Not long ago, Hua Village was attacked. I initially thought it was the Black Vatican's people, but it turned out to be a personal conflict between one of the village chiefs and Hua Village. The Black Vatican and I both fell into the same trap. The identities of their superiors and subordinates were kept a secret, thus the authorities of the Black Vatican thought it was their men that were massacring the villagers of Hua Village … in other words, the Water of Kun isn't in the Black Vatican's hands, but in the hands of a Necromancer called Fang Gu! "the mysterious man said.
"The Water of Kun can neutralize the Dew of Nine Serenities?" Councilman Zhu Meng's eyes glittered. His face even reddened!
"Yes, the Water of Kun can neutralize the violence and hatred of the Dew of Nine Serenities, like an acid and an alkaline. Unfortunately, I always thought Fang Gu was a member of the Black Vatican. I didn't do anything to him, as I didn't want to expose myself. However, when the calamity struck, I couldn't find him anymore, "the mysterious man said.
"But, a single portion of the Water of Kun isn't enough to stop the rain. After all, it's formed from seven portions of the Water of Kun. It's going to rain continuously for a few days," the Chief Military Instructor Fei Jiao immediately raised his doubts.
"The Ancient King is the key to the calamity. The Water of Kun can neutralize the rainwater and buy us half a day's time. We can use the time when the undead are asleep to find the imperial tomb and seal the Ancient King away, thus ending the calamity once and for all! "the mysterious man said.
Everyone exchanged glances with one another. They had no choice but to trust the man who was unwilling to reveal his identity, as they had no clue what was going on.
None of them were stupid. If there was something wrong with the man's identity, there was no need for him to come out and tell everyone the truth, as they had no idea the existence of the Black Vatican and the Black Vatican's plan before he revealed the truth.
"We're willing to believe you, but we still don't know who you are. Why don't you take off your mask?" Ling Xi asked.
