Chapter 356 Zhu Meng's False Alarm
The fact that Long Da had advanced to become a monarch-level undead creature naturally attracted the attention of Zhu Meng and the others. After Zhu Meng, Lu Xu, Fei Jiao, Du Xiao and the others had consumed most of their magical energy after dealing with the monarch-level Ghost Tyrant, Du Xiao, the Hunter King, was even seriously injured. If another monarch-level undead creature were to appear at this time, the ancient capital would be in danger.
"Why did a monarch-level creature suddenly appear on the Light Magic Mage Corps' side?" Zhu Meng asked with a grim expression.
"This is troublesome. I don't have enough magic power left to cast a super-level spell again. If this monarch-level undead gets close to the city wall, the north wall will be..." Lu Xu said with difficulty, clutching his severed right arm.
"So what if our magical energy is insufficient? Are we just going to let this suddenly appearing monarch-level undead charge up the north city wall?" Flying Horn said, supporting the Lone Hunter King whose abdomen was bleeding profusely.
"Let's go take a look first," said Du Xiao Lie Wang.
Zhu Meng, Lu Xu, and Fei Jiao had no objections. As the strongest in the ancient capital, they naturally couldn't stand by and watch a monarch-level undead break through the north city wall. At the same time, they activated their respective winged demonic tools and flew towards the direction where Long Da was.
Zhu Meng, wielding a thunderous spear and with his fiery wings flapping rapidly behind him, led the way.
In the blink of an eye, Zhu Meng arrived in front of Long Da, pointing his thunderous spear at him and shouting angrily, "Even if I, Zhu Meng, die today, I will not let you break through the city walls!"
"Ahem, old man Zhu, you must have misunderstood something. This is my summoned creature," Jiang Han coughed from below.
At this moment, Zhu Meng noticed Jiang Han below, as well as the undead summons around him that were frantically devouring soul fire and undead crystals. However, his pupils shrank slightly after seeing nearly a hundred warrior-level creatures.
"Is this your summoned creature?" Zhu Meng asked, still somewhat skeptical.
"Isn't this obvious? What do you think? Isn't my Skeleton Nether Dragon cool?" Jiang Han said with a smile.
"Get lost! I thought a monarch-level undead had suddenly appeared here! Do you know how scared we almost died with your undead summon?" Zhu Meng shouted angrily.
Just then, Lu Xufei came over and asked, "Zhu Meng, what exactly is going on?"
"Ask that Jiang family brat," Zhu Meng said, pointing at Jiang Han below, sounding annoyed.
Lu Xu, Fei Jiao, and Du Xiao Lie all looked down at Jiang Han, which made Jiang Han a little embarrassed.
Jiang Han scratched his head awkwardly and said, "Well, these undead are my summoned beasts, but they're a bit special. They can advance by devouring the soul fire or undead crystals of the dead."
"There are actually such peculiar summoned beasts." Du Xiao Lie Wang said with slight surprise.
"It is indeed peculiar. Where did you capture this summoned beast? If our Guardian Mages could tame a batch of such undead creatures, we wouldn't have to worry about the undead riots every year." As the military commander of the Ancient Capital Guard District, Lu Xu naturally thought more than Du Xiao Lie Wang.
"How should I put it? You might be able to recognize my undead summoned creatures," Jiang Han said.
"Is it the lizard-headed giant monster that inhabits the area around Dongting Lake?" said Du Xiao Lie Wang.
As the only hunter king who could become a hunter king, Xiao Liewang's eyesight was naturally sharper than Zhu Meng's and others, and he could tell from the outline of the skeleton that it was a giant lizard-headed demon below.
"Indeed, these are all creatures I hunted back then, and then combined with summoning and necromancy techniques to create undead creatures. Perhaps this is the special thing about them being able to advance through the soul fire," Jiang Han said.
"Incredible, truly incredible! To achieve this at such a young age," praised Du Xiao Lie Wang.
"Since it's not a monarch-level undead from the Undead Empire, let's go back to the city wall on the north side to heal our wounds," Flying Horn said.
"Yes, the Ghost Tyrant has been dealt with. You can all retreat to the city walls now," Zhu Meng said to Luo Yu, the leader of the Light Magic Mage Corps, and several other high-level Hunter Mages below.
The group then flew towards the city wall, while Jiang Han controlled his undead summoned beasts to retreat towards the wall. As for the light magic mages, they were protected on the inner side by nearly a hundred warrior-level white bone lizard demons, ensuring their safety.
Meanwhile, Mo Fan, Liu Ru, Yao Nan, and the others had safely returned to the city and climbed the city wall again. In the passageway, many mages were still guarding the city wall in the misty drizzle, listening to the distant bells and praying for daylight to come soon.
Just as Mo Fan and his companions were resting on the chairs on the city tower, a mage suddenly rushed over.
"What's wrong? Why are you in such a panic?" Staff Officer Zhu, standing on the city wall, stopped the mage and asked.
"A small squad is surrounded by a group of skeletons, but we can't send any more men right now," the mage reported.
"Which squad is it?" Staff Officer Zhu asked.
"The squad led by Wang Mang."
Just as Staff Officer Zhu was debating whether to send Mo Fan and the others out again, a loud dragon roar suddenly echoed from the distant sky, the terrifying sound waves causing many undead to prostrate themselves on the ground.
"This, this is a monarch-level being!!!" Staff Officer Zhu exclaimed with a worried expression after sensing the aura of the undead creature.
"Notify the fire, lightning, ice, and light magic guilds to prepare."
Staff Officer Zhu began to make intensive arrangements for the defensive mages in various locations, and at the same time arranged for people to contact the two major forces in the city, the Magic Association and the Hunter Alliance, to prepare them for support at any time.
After Staff Officer Zhu arranged for the guardian mages to defend various locations, a milky white light rose into the sky in the distance.
"The Ghost Tyrant has been successfully killed, but this suddenly appearing monarch-level undead does have some magic." Even after seeing the Ghost Tyrant killed, the worry on Staff Officer Zhu's face did not disappear.
As a staff officer, Zhu Yong knew that killing the Ghost Tyrant was the limit for Councilor Zhu Meng and the others. If they were to hunt down the newly appeared monarch-level undead, someone would surely perish. This was the reason for Zhu Yong's worry.
