From Skeleton Soldiers to King of the Undead

At the same time, in a room on the top floor of the mage tower.

"Chris, go to the Endless Tower to check the information on the Mountains of the Dead."

A female mage wearing a gray robe, with long wavy gray hair and silver-grey eyes sat in front of the table, holding a silver pen and drawing a starry sky-like complex magic array diagram on the white paper.

Without looking back, she said to the white ghost familiar behind her:

"Starting from the earliest records, extract all the events involving Level 4 and above and make a list for me."

"Yes, Lady Cynthia."

Behind her, Chris bowed slightly, showing great respect.

The woman in front of her whose "main tone" is gray is her contract partner, legendary candidate, Holy Magister, Moonlight Witch Cynthia.

In addition to people in the legendary realm who are rarely seen at ordinary times, this female mage is one of the strongest people standing at the top of Orario. Her rating in the Adventurer's Guild is the highest level below legend - level ten.

A strong person of this level can influence the entire guild's decisions with every word and deed. He has the power of speaking like a "prime minister" in Orario. If he stamps his feet casually, the situation on the entire continent will be in turmoil.

Therefore, Chris kept a very low profile towards this contractor.

After hesitating for a moment, Chris asked: "Sir, what happened to the Mountains of the Dead?"

While the Moonlight Witch was drawing the formation diagram, she said calmly: "It's nothing, it's just that there seems to be something going on over there. The guild plans to send people to deal with it, and someone suddenly wants to ask me for a piece of information.

"After you finish sorting out this catalog of historical materials, you don't have to show it to me. Just send it directly to the guild."

Something happened?

Kris thought of many things in an instant.

However, it did not ask any more questions, but silently left the room and came to the reading room in the Endless Tower that contained historical materials of the Holy Empire.

"Blizzard..." Chris saw the news cut out on the wall.

Is it related to Roja?

After that, it ignored the djinn who kept trying to strike up a conversation, and began to read the historical information on the Mountain of the Dead on its own.

The most famous person and thing related to the Undead Mountains is probably a certain legendary necromancer. It is said that it was once the place where he hoarded his undead army.

Before this, it seemed that the Mountains of the Undead were just an ordinary mountainous area... filled with trivial rumors about monsters and dragons.

"Crashing... crashing..."

Chris quickly turned the pages and browsed one information after another.

The farther back in time goes, the less relevant information remains, and most of it is just insignificant events...

Um?

It wasn't until it saw a certain record that it suddenly stopped turning the pages.

What it saw in front of it was a very old historical document. The pages were yellowed and covered with numerous cracks. It looked like it had been dug out of the ground and was only spliced ​​together by the magic applied on it. It was unknown how many years ago it was.

Moreover, it is written in an ancient script from a remote area of ​​the Holy Empire, which may be difficult for ordinary scholars to read.

"The great devil, Copperfield..."

Chrissy's fingertips ran across the lines of ancient and obscure words, and she was surprised in her heart.

It actually records that the demon god Copperfield once built a movable underground city called the "Mansion Cube" in a certain mountain range.

——Cut a floor out of Orario's real underground maze as the matrix, and then build the walls with extremely hard stone.

Imprisoning monsters, demons, gods and heretical gods that he captured from various planes, abyss, heaven, and demon world.

Day after day, year after year, the Demon God is conducting research on the ultimate mystery of life in the underground city.

Then...he never came out of the "Mansion Cube" and disappeared from this world.

In order to protect the secret of this great existence, his students reclaimed land with the mountains as the border, civilized the local indigenous people, and established a small country with only three city-states.

This book...is information unearthed from the Holy Empire?

Are you talking about the origin of the empire?

Chrissy was shocked.

Many ancient demon gods would build dungeons as their bases for studying spells.

Most of these dungeons are built directly on a certain floor of Orario's underground maze.

With the help of the power of this huge monster nest, it gradually became part of the big maze.

Therefore, in the current large maze, in addition to natural cave passages and underground worlds, you can also see many artificial architectural ruins, most of which are the ruins left by the devil.

Copperfield actually cut a floor directly out of the maze matrix and built an independent dungeon outside?

This just sounds amazing! It’s like a fairy tale!

Moreover, after the demon gods abandoned the dungeons, they would always leave behind some rare treasures for future generations of brave men and sages to challenge, conquer, and obtain.

——This is the earliest legend of dungeons and adventurers.

But after so many years, almost all the treasures in the dungeons that have been discovered have been taken away by generations of adventurers.

Those most precious artifacts have attracted countless legendary mages, brave men, and sages to duel, and holy wars have been launched between churches.

And now, if the only dungeon left by Copperfield, one of the most famous demons in history, is brought to light again...

I am afraid that all the legendary powerhouses of the world will return, show up, and swarm in.

Does the Adventurer's Guild know this shocking news?

Chris thought about this question.

You probably don't know, I've never heard of Copperfield's Dungeon.

"..."

After thinking for a long time, it gently closed the page and decided to keep this secret.

As a familiar with low strength and low status, reporting this matter to the Adventurer's Guild would not gain any substantial benefit.

To explore this kind of demon god's dungeon, in terms of strength, it is not even his turn to think about it.

It's better to keep it secret for now, and then if you encounter any suitable opportunity in the future, you can use this secret to exchange for something useful to yourself...

…

Just when some people in Orario looked towards the Mountains of the Undead.

On the top of the mountain covered by wind and snow,

In the main hall, Roja leaned on the throne, gradually waking up from his deep sleep, and the blue flames in his eyes rekindled.

Although it is difficult to feel tired, occasionally relaxing his mind can still make his mood more stable.

In addition, the moose has also just been upgraded, which is also the reason why Roja woke up.
