Jiang Yuan put away the dark matter.
Although Qin Feng said that creating Undead secret techniques was very difficult, he still wanted to try first.
After getting the dark matter, Jiang Yuan and Qin Yun did not leave.
Having traveled thousands of miles to the Ancient Capital, it was certainly impossible to leave immediately.
By night, the Ancient Capital would transform into another world.
Qin Yun's first trial for Jiang Yuan was to face the Undead tide directly from the Ancient Capital's City Wall!
...…
...…
Twilight quietly crept up the treetops, and the sunset glow, like wantonly spilled paint, rendered the edge of the sky dreamlike, outlining a seemingly peaceful and harmonious scene.
However, in the hearts of the Ancient Capital's residents, this beautiful scenery was always shrouded in a layer of gloom.
Whenever the twilight afterglow fell, the long and terrifying night would follow.
Under the cover of night, the Undead sleeping deep within the earth would forcefully tear open the dust-sealed soil on their bodies and return to the world they once lived in!
"Night is coming."
The dim yellow light spilled into the living room, Qin Feng put down his chopsticks, silently got up, and began to tidy up.
Qin Yun also stood up, looked at Jiang Yuan, and said concisely: "Go to the City Wall with me tonight."
Even if Qin Yun didn't take Jiang Yuan to the City Wall, he would definitely go himself.
Jiang Yuan nodded slightly, then helped clear the leftovers from the dining table.
After everything was tidied up, the three hurried towards the Outer City Wall.
The Outer City Wall, as the first solid line of defense protecting the Ancient Capital, was by no means easy for ordinary people to ascend.
Even if Qin Feng was a frequent visitor here, he couldn't directly bring Qin Yun and Jiang Yuan up.
Fortunately, Jiang Yuan had the identity of a Hunter, and Qin Yun was a Mingzhu Academy mentor. With these identities, they successfully ascended the City Wall.
As soon as they went up, a biting cold wind howled and rushed towards them, mixed with a nauseating smell of decay and a strong earthy smell that went straight into their nostrils.
Mages called these smells the scent of Death.
A very accurate description.
Jiang Yuan stood at the edge of the Outer City Wall, looking out into the distance, where the gloomy earth was dead silent.
The towering City Wall was like an insurmountable chasm, dividing the earth into two: one side was the world of the living, and the other was the realm of the dead.
The sky gradually darkened, and some blurry figures slowly crawled out of the ground, wandering aimlessly.
The smell of decay in the air grew stronger, and the figures outside the City Wall became denser and denser.
Until the last ray of sunlight disappeared at the end of the horizon.
Countless Undead had already covered the ground outside the City Wall!
"It's coming."
Qin Yun exhaled a turbid breath, his voice low.
Suddenly, the wind that had been blowing on their faces abruptly changed direction, whistling from behind them.
The Undead wandering on the ground seemed to be possessed by evil spirits, suddenly turning around and staring fiercely at the living people on the City Wall with their eyes emitting a strange green light.
The scent of the living!
Black figures galloped across the earth, surging like a raging tide, like dense ants devouring prey.
Their rotten and hideous faces, fierce and malicious eyes, all revealed their most primitive desire—slaughter!
A craving to devour the flesh and blood of the living!
"Aargh~~~!!!!"
"Roar~~~!!!!"
Death wails, as if from the abyss of hell, rose and fell, making the Mages on the City Wall's scalps tingle and their spines chill.
"Undead attack!!!"
"Don't let them get on the City Wall!!!"
The battle between Mages and Undead was imminent.
Although the Outer City Wall was towering into the clouds, the endless Undead corpse tide surged madly, crashing against the City Wall recklessly.
These Undead felt no pain, their hearts filled only with a craving for flesh and blood, not caring if they were smashed to pieces.
Soon, rotten limbs and severed arms piled up in layers at the base of the City Wall.
Tens of thousands of Undead actually stacked themselves into a Death staircase!
The later Undead stepped on this staircase built from the corpses of their companions, rushing up frantically.
On the high wall, magical radiance bloomed dazzlingly, and continuous destructive magic poured down like a torrential rain.
"These are the Undead of the Ancient Capital. The people here have to face Undead attacking the city day and night, and have even grown accustomed to it."
Qin Yun's voice came, and a fiery red magical radiance shone around his body.
As soon as his voice fell, a fiercely explosive flame shot out from his hand.
Immediately after, the gray light representing the Undead System shone around him again.
Undead aura permeated the air, and dozens of Undead were summoned.
Among them, there were three extremely powerful figures.
One was a rotten demon as tall as three stories, shaped like a rhinoceros, and as soon as it appeared, it crashed down like a small mountain!
The other two were translucent specter Undead!
One Small Commander, two Great Battle Generals, and dozens of Servant-level Undead.
This was the Undead power controlled by Qin Yun, an Undead System mentor!
Qin Yun joined the battle without hesitation, and his powerful strength instantly suppressed the Undead along a long section of the surrounding City Wall.
Seeing this, Jiang Yuan no longer stood by.
"Undead Summon!"
Gray star tracks quietly appeared, and the Three-Eyed Underworld General, radiating a cold aura, descended from the Underworld to the human world.
"Don't let a single Undead get on the City Wall!" Jiang Yuan commanded with a stern expression.
The Three-Eyed Underworld General wielded his sharp saber, and with each downward slash, several Undead were cut in half, firmly executing Jiang Yuan's command.
On the other side, Jiang Yuan arrived at a section of the City Wall about twenty meters away.
The guards in this section of the City Wall were fully focused on dealing with the Undead and had not seen Jiang Yuan summon the Three-Eyed Underworld General just now.
As Jiang Yuan approached, a guard subconsciously spoke: "You're a student, right? Stay away from the City Wall, don't get hurt by these disgusting things."
"I'm here to help you."
Jiang Yuan's tone was calm.
As soon as his voice fell, a large amount of surging water appeared behind Jiang Yuan, roaring like an enraged beast, with crashing waves!
The violent current, with an overwhelming force, washed away the Undead clinging to the wall, instantly clearing a large area.
Immediately after, the water current rushed rapidly into the air.
The temperature dropped rapidly, instantly solidifying into a large, huge ice bed, which then smashed down with immense force.
"Boom~~~Crack~~~!!!!"
In an instant, flesh and blood splattered, and who knows how many Undead were crushed into pulp under the ice bed.
"You…" The guard's mouth hung open, his face filled with shock, the words stuck in his throat, unable to come out.
Only one thought echoed repeatedly in his mind: What a fierce Mage! Where did such a young Mage come from?
At this moment, a deep voice came from somewhere, spreading throughout the entire Outer City Wall.
"Unauthorized personnel, please leave!"
The Hunter Mages on the City Wall, hearing this voice, seemed to have received an order and began to ask some Mages with insufficient strength to leave.
Jiang Yuan's powerful strength, which he had just displayed, naturally did not fall into the category of those asked to leave.
It was precisely because he stayed that he saw the massive shadow appearing at the farthest horizon under the night!
