The Dean Has Arrived

"Okay, we're almost out of here."

After reading what was recorded on the Astronomy of Truth, Xi Wei waved to put the Astronomy of Truth and the sapphire stand into the treasure box space, and planned to leave.

"Huh? Is that it?"

Velen said with some surprise.

In fact, in addition to the Astronomy of Truth and the stand where the Astronomy of Truth is placed, there are some scattered ancient items around the room. Although the original value is unclear, at least in modern times, any magic item can easily be photographed for one Come at a sky-high price.

"If you are interested in things on the ground, you can pick them up yourself."

It's impossible for Xi Wei not to know this, it's just that he doesn't like those things on the ground.

After all, he has obtained too many things from the system copy, and he even sorted things out some time ago because he could no longer put them down. Any of the items he threw into the college store were better than those on the ground. White quality spicy chicken is much better.

"Oh, you're welcome then!" Velen was still a little hesitant, but Joania, a thick-skinned veteran, had already rubbed his hands and started picking.

In the end, Velen chose an ancient staff. Although it was in relatively good condition, the undead aura on it was relatively strong. It was probably the weapon used by the necromancer.

Veteran Joania found a piece of linen that could still be used somewhere, and packed up a bunch of magic items and took them out...

There are many bones outside the arms warehouse, and the carrion-eating flies have achieved great results. In just over half an hour, all the zombies around the Yanfei Fortress were eaten up. Only a few zombies with severe plant fibrosis were eaten clean. The movable organs of the body were lost, causing it to lose the ability to move like a real tree, but it was not completely dead.

But this doesn’t make it difficult for Xiwei to just give those flies a little genetic modification...

After dealing with the zombie wave, Xiwei asked the survivors to bring some fly eggs and head towards the inland cities in the eastern plains. If they saw any zombies that had slipped through the net, they would kill them with carrion flies.

Anyway, this kind of fly will die naturally when there is no food (zombie) to eat, so it will not become a disaster.

The only sad thing may be that the undead creatures of the necromancers hidden in the crowd will probably be eaten by carrion flies as delicious meals. Even the skeletons still have soul fire to chew on...

Velen and veteran Jonja were directed by Xiwei to the nearest city where the caravan transportation network under Edric College was located.

It's not that Xi Wei cherishes a piece of homecoming crystal or is too lazy to send them to Edric, but he just wants to use this action to give Velen some training. It can also be regarded as an entrance exam. Anyway, with the veteran Joania here, it is estimated that Velen will not be trapped in a black shop or the like.

Xi Wei himself walked in the direction of the zombie wave, intending to find the origin of the zombie wave.

If he guessed correctly, there is probably an army of undead created by the great magician from the mythical era recorded in the astronomy of truth buried there!

Although Xi Wei had no interest in changing his profession to become a necromancer, to be honest, he was really curious about the undead army that the great magician said could defeat the gods.

If this was said by a high-level magician, then Xi Wei could regard it as the other party's lies. After all, high-level magicians are mortals who cannot even touch miracles. There is nothing they can do about being unable to understand the essence of the existence of gods. .

But when a magician understands the miracle and becomes a great magician, he will feel in the dark how the so-called gods really exist, and how far out of reach humans and gods are in terms of personality.

Even Xi Wei, who has tried to create the world, as a legendary mage, can only be regarded as a demigod at best now, and is still a long way from being a true god.

Therefore, he was somewhat interested in the legacy left by the great magician of that mythical era.

As we traced the journey, the tree-turned corpses on the ground also changed from human soldiers to orcs. This also showed in a sense that Xi Wei had crossed the boundaries of the eastern plains and arrived in the northern hills, the original hometown of the orcs.

Orcs generally have a reproductive capacity that humans can only dream of. If the quantity and quality of the opponent's high-end combat power were not far inferior to humans, humans would probably be wiped out soon.

However, it can be said that modern times are the most aggrieved era for orcs.

First, they invaded the Eastern Plains and achieved great success. Just when they thought their people would have a rich harvest, Xi Wei appeared out of nowhere and killed an army of 100,000 orcs by himself, forcing the orcs out of the Eastern Plains.

Later, the orc high-ranking officials were bewitched by the Eldrazi clan, and after a tough battle, the high-ranking officials were almost killed. If humans weren't currently in a state of distress due to the relationship between Timothy and the Dark Alliance, humans might have counterattacked the orcs long ago and turned all the orcs into human prisoners.

I just didn't expect that the level of disasters within the orcs would not stop there. Although the reason is unknown, it is obvious that the undead army left by the great magician of that mythical era is gradually waking up.

Transforming into a zombie is just the first step. God knows what will appear next...

"Wait a minute, think about it this way, if I discovered the zombies and came over to observe, wouldn't this be considered as saving the lives of the entire race of orcs in disguise?"

Xi Wei scratched his face and suddenly became quite curious about the expressions of the remaining orcs when they found out that the one who saved them from dire straits was actually him, the life and death enemy of the orcs.

No need to gossip, in short, Xi Wei kept moving forward, and soon he realized that he might have chased too far, because there were no traces of the arboreal zombies in front or nearby.

So he began to retrace his steps and carefully felt every inch of the ground.

It took him almost a whole day before he felt something strange about a huge rock.

The rock was painted with a deep and dim color like a mural. Xi Wei could vaguely understand that it was a rune lock. However, because it was in disrepair, it was basically impossible to analyze the rune lock through the color spots on it, so he simply The rune lock was forcibly broken through the ability of the legendary mage.

If the rune lock is still intact, the big stone will move away on its own after being cracked. However, after thousands of years, these mechanisms that were left behind have almost become rotten. So Xi Wei threw the boulder aside, revealing a dark corridor leading underground.

It is worth mentioning that the entire underground passage is filled with yellow smoke, which is obviously full of spores that can cause diseases in ordinary people and turn them into tree zombies.

I am afraid that the original source of the zombie wave's spread was due to the leakage of these spores from the cracks.

Xi Wei thought for a while, then added a seal on the outside to keep the spores inside, and then walked down cautiously.

What's interesting is that there are many torches in the tunnel. Even though there is no fuel inside, they are still burning brightly.

"Is this... illusion magic? No..." After a little testing, Xi Wei found that the flame had no temperature, and besides lighting, there was almost no energy diffusion: "Could it be a mirage? It will be the same as when there was fuel in the past. Is the influence projected from the past to this time?"

If the so-called great mage can really do this, either the other party has become a legendary great mage, or this has something to do with the miracle that the other party has realized.

The tunnel is very deep, and Xi Wei also discovered some fluctuations in space as he went downwards.

This made him suddenly realize that this tunnel was probably the same as the space door in the previous arms warehouse, and the place it led to was not in the main material plane. Even if we dig down next to this tunnel, it will not lead to where this tunnel will eventually go.

He didn't know how long he had been walking, but Xi Wei's eyes suddenly opened up, and everything that appeared in front of him shocked him.

This is a very huge space, about fifteen times the size of the Great Hall of Edric College. If Xi Wei's perception ability was not far beyond that of ordinary people, I am afraid that when he came to this space, there would be a sense of breadth that could be seen at a glance. The feeling of having no end in sight.

But this was not what surprised Xi Wei. For him, he had seen many magnificent buildings before, and he would not be surprised just because of them.

What shocked him were the things displayed in this huge space.

"This is... the mummy of Eldrazi?! Are you kidding me..."

To be precise, it should be the undead of the Ozark tribe, but Xi Wei could sense that the soul fire in the opponent's body was very turbid and weak. It seemed that thousands of years of time had a considerable impact on this monster.

"No, the soul fire is too turbid... Even someone like me who doesn't use undead magic can feel the strangeness..."

Xi Wei carefully looked at the undead of the Ozark tribe displayed in front of him like a sculpture. Although he had dealt with the Ozarks a lot, unfortunately, Xi Wei often did not have many opportunities to carefully look at it. Consider these enemies.

I didn't expect that this kind of place would be found in this spur-of-the-moment search. In a sense, it is indeed a big profit.

"So that's it, Eldrazi itself does not have a soul. Are these soul fires obtained by extracting other undead? Implant it into Eldrazi's body, and use the soul fire as the basis to control Eldrazi's body. Is this the truth about the undead of the Eldrazi? No, if it is just like this, it cannot be regarded as undead, but more like a demon..."

Unable to see Xi Wei, who was tall and tall, continued to walk among the undead.

Later, he saw more conventional high-level undead units such as Bone Dragon, Headless Horseman, and Abomination. However, the undead here seemed to be a little abnormal. It was difficult to see the difference through ordinary observation. It was estimated that he would have to fight against each other before he could see the difference. Understand how they differ from ordinary undead.

After walking for a long time, Xi Wei arrived at the center of this space, where a square stone tablet was placed, with dense small characters written in the ancient script of the Gods.

Xi Wei had already seen a small part of it from the rubbings in the arms warehouse, but he didn't expect that the writing didn't even cover a quarter of it.

"If you are a godless person, please stop here. My mentor has lifted the fog of the future and seen the tragic scene of the world burning in the fire of the abyss; the destroyer of the world will appear here and bestow upon this world In the face of unstoppable destruction, the gods will not pity the world, but will become accomplices, singing praises for the perpetrators, and giving them the reputation of forging the next Eden. For this reason, I have to answer the call of my mentor and devote my life What I have learned and created is to create the strongest army of the undead, just to be able to fight against the gods and earn a glimmer of hope for the future of mankind..."

"...The destroyer of the world? Could it be..." Xi Wei trembled slightly, thinking of himself he saw in another world: "Is it 'me'?"
