Damn it! If you're so capable, put down your weapons and let's fight bare-handed!
Of course, that's impossible; Marx and Engels wouldn't talk to them about martial virtue.
"Strike while the iron is hot!" With his Tang sword, he charged forward and gave the undead a sound beating.
Faced with two monsters immune to his attacks and possessing weapons specifically designed to counter him, Ghost could only passively take the beatings and flee in all directions.
Unfortunately, it cannot leave this tomb chamber; there's nowhere it can escape to.
"Damn it! You forced me to this! Die!"
The ghostly figure was driven into a desperate situation, and its ghostly aura erupted.
then……
The tomb chamber exploded!
Chapter 173 I'll take someone down with me even if I die! The Spirit Disaster!
boom! ! !
A devastating explosion occurred in the tomb chamber. The enormous sound was heard not only by Mordred and the others outside the cemetery, but also by the people in the village.
Then came a violent earthquake. When the villagers came out in terror to check, they saw a billowing black mist above the cemetery. Just looking at it sent chills down their spines and filled them with dread.
Bersak, who was waiting for news outside the tomb, was blown away, but fortunately he was not seriously injured.
When he got up and saw this scene, he trembled all over.
"This terrifying death aura! Good! The child is in danger!"
As he spoke, he hurriedly ran outside the cemetery.
"Hey, Mordred, what's this? Are Marne and the others alright?"
At the entrance to the cemetery, the girls beside Mordred were also terrified, but they were still worried about the situation of Mar and En.
"No problem, Master is fine. More importantly, I need to get you out of here first."
As Mordred said this, he grabbed one child with each hand and carried another, leading the four children toward the village.
Although she didn't know what had happened in the cemetery, she could tell that the black mist was not a good thing.
And since Ma 407 is about to involve this area, she can't let the children stay here any longer.
Meanwhile, on Marne's side, the explosion blasted both him and the Lion King away. Marne landed on the roadside outside the cemetery, while the Lion King landed on the other side, and the two were separated.
"What is this for?"
Ma En looked up at the black fog in the sky and couldn't help but frown.
I was just a hair's breadth away from taking down that ghostly figure, but I never expected the other side to have such a trump card.
However, since it's a trump card, it certainly won't be simple, but Ma En didn't know what kind of method it was for the time being.
He immediately activated the magical communication system to contact Mordred, and learned that Mordred had already taken the children away. After praising him a couple of times, he then contacted the Lion King on the other side.
[Marx and Engels: What's the situation on your end?]
[Artoria: Master, I'm still in the graveyard. The situation here is dire; this black mist is brewing a large number of undead.]
The Lion Queen was in the black mist. She watched as the undead kept emerging around her, and while she was wielding her holy lance to kill them, she answered Marne's question.
[Ma En: Alright, you should step back now. I'll set up a protective barrier around here.]
[Artoria: Understood.]
After understanding the situation, Maren no longer hesitated and quickly constructed materials, arranged them around the cemetery, and set up a barrier to protect against the spirits of the dead.
This kind of knowledge was among the knowledge gained through the Greater Grail; otherwise, Mar and Eng would not have known this at all.
However, now, Ma En dares to say that he is definitely a top-notch magician, possessing a level of magical knowledge that other magicians cannot match.
Just as the barrier was set up, Marne saw Bersak rushing out in a hurry.
Upon seeing the barrier, the other party immediately breathed a sigh of relief.
Then, he solemnly said to Marne, "Mr. Marne, you saved this village, thank you so much."
Ma En raised his hand and cast a healing spell on him, treating the injuries caused by the explosion. Then he quickly asked, "You know what happened, right?"
“Yes.” Ersak nodded and explained, “This cemetery is where our clan is buried. Our ancestors were basically created based on the bloodline of King Arthur, so we are all descendants of King Arthur.”
"That false king, having spent a long time in this cemetery, nourished by the death energy of these dead people, should have become similar to King Arthur in spirit."
"And its deathly aura has corrupted the spirits of these people, so in the past, some of the dead people have become undead and occasionally go berserk. My duty as the gravedigger is to deal with these undead."
"If I'm not mistaken, it's awakening the souls of other clansmen who haven't yet gone berserk, turning them into undead, and driving them to form a large army of the dead."
As he said this, Belsac's face turned extremely ugly.
The duty of the gravediggers is to kill the undead that their clansmen have become. This is an extremely agonizing job, but they can comfort themselves by saying that they are preventing more of their clansmen from becoming undead, so that the souls of other clansmen can find peace.
Now, however, that fake undead king has directly turned the souls of other races into undead, which is the most unacceptable thing for Belsak.
All the efforts of his master's master's master, his ancestors, and himself over the years have been in vain at this moment, which he can accept.
"Naluhuoduo, is it trying to drag this whole village down with it?"
Maren immediately understood that the ghostly figure was cornered and had no choice but to perish together with it.
By self-destructing, he radiated his ghostly aura, or rather, his energy, throughout the entire cemetery, turning the souls of other people buried there into ghosts, thus creating a calamity of the dead.
Bersak nodded, agreeing with this statement.
"Alright, leave this to us. You go and organize the villagers to seek refuge. Mordred is over there too; she'll help you."
"Okay, you guys be careful."
Seeing this, Belsak did not linger any longer and continued running towards the village.
Even if he could help, he wouldn't do so.
Because he had already prepared to relinquish his duties as a tomb keeper, he was hesitant to now take action against these fellow countrymen who were dead.
Therefore, he should go and organize the villagers to seek refuge, since protecting the villagers and the village is the true responsibility of the tomb keeper.
After he left, Maren frowned as he looked at the cemetery.
At this moment, the cemetery was completely shrouded in black mist, within which terrifying and ferocious ghostly figures swayed everywhere, transforming it into a ghostly realm that was extremely eerie.
"Why hasn't Lia come out yet? Could she have encountered some danger?"
Seeing that the Lion King had not yet appeared, Ma En couldn't help but feel a little worried.
But then she thought, the Lion King is so strong, wielding the Holy Lance that subdues the undead, and with the protection of the Endless Realm by his side, mere undead can't hurt her at all, so she wasn't so worried.
However, out of caution, Ma En still managed to contact her using magical communication.
[Marx and Engels: How's it going on your end? Why haven't you come out yet?]
However, this time, Magic Communications disappeared without a trace, offering no response whatsoever.
Ma En's heart skipped a beat, and he rushed inside.
Chapter 174 The Lion King's Speechlessness, the End of the Matter, and Gratitude
As soon as Ma En entered the barrier, the undead trapped around him, unable to cross, rushed towards him upon seeing a living person enter.
"Go away!"
With a wave of his hand, Ma En caused golden ripples to spread through the space behind him, from which all sorts of weapons emerged and shot towards the undead.
Boom boom boom boom!
The weapon struck the undead precisely, shattering them instantly and sending sand and stones flying across the ground.
Marne didn't care that this was a cemetery and whether it would affect the graves. He made a series of moves, tearing a path through the horde of the dead, and then rushed toward the location of the Lion King that he sensed.
Upon arriving at the location, Ma En saw a group of enormous skeletons. The Lion King was struggling against their attacks and was in dire straits, on the verge of collapse.
Can you believe this?!
Keep in mind that this is Britain, and with the added fame, Lion King's various attributes have already been boosted to A+ level.
Even so, the Lion King was still suppressed under the onslaught, which shows just how powerful these giant skeletons were.
Before Marne could think any further, he raised his hand and used a Command Spell.
"By Command Spell, I command you to grant undead special attack, undead defense, attribute amplification, attribute breakthrough, and mana replenishment..."
After using ten Command Seals in a row, the Lion King was instantly buffed, his combat power surged, and he began to fight back, taking down a giant skeleton in no time.
Marne wasn't idle either. All sorts of Zanpakuto shot out from the Gate of Babylon, an endless stream, as if they had activated unlimited firepower. Every second, a swarm of small undead would be released, which also held back the giant skeleton horde and relieved a lot of pressure on the Lion King.
With the addition of Marne, and the Lion King's burst of power, the giant skeleton horde was quickly wiped out.
The two then cleared out the remaining undead. Finally, Marne asked the Lion King, "What about those giant skeletons?"
The Lion King shook his head: "I'm not entirely sure either, but I can sense the red dragon factor on them. Other undead also have it, but the factor is even more pronounced and stronger on these giant skeletons."
"I think I understand now. It was that ghostly figure that tampered with them, making them resonate with you."
These figures buried here were all created based on King Arthur. Although none of them were a perfect replica, they were still somewhat similar to him.
Therefore, it is not surprising that the undead have the red dragon factor. As for those giant skeletons, they are individuals who are more accepting of completion than ordinary villagers. They are like Gray, perhaps worse than Gray, but not by much.
If Gray could resonate with the Lion King and cause her body to mutate, then these individuals should also be able to. The ghostly figure used this to help these undead resonate, creating a batch of even more powerful undead.
The Lion King nodded, agreeing with the guess: "That should be it. They weren't like that originally; they were suddenly enhanced later."
She was speechless. She never expected that her existence would not only cause a little girl to change, but also cause the undead to change.
This is really...
The silence she experienced that day was probably more than she had in her entire life.
Marne knew what she was thinking, so he smiled and comforted her, "Alright, this isn't your problem. It was all Morgan's doing, and it's been resolved now. You don't need to hold a grudge anymore."
"Hmm," the prince responded, and then stopped thinking about it.
Afterwards, the two inspected the cemetery and confirmed that all the spirits had been cleared away. Ma En then used purification magic to clear the tangible black mist of death from the cemetery before the two left the cemetery.
The villagers had already fled, and the two found them at the foot of the mountain on the other side of the village.
