Doomsday Code

Chapter 39 Inner Panic (Thanks to Dazhi Ruoyu for the reward)

"Filled with resentment and carrying the aura of death..."

A long list of unknown death identification terms popped out of Hodos's mouth.

Then he added:

"Okay, now we know the general situation of the deceased."

Hodos dispersed the ball of light in his hand, and then came to Huidun, folded his hands across his chest, performed a religious ceremony, and then said:

“This deceased died from necromancy magic, and the cow dung on his body and his posthumous grievances can serve as evidence.

There were also traces of potion residue on his body, which confirmed that he had been contaminated by the undead potion.

And judging by the degree of corpse spots on his body and the turbidity of his eyeballs, it can be confirmed that he had died three to five days ago."

"This is the murderer declaring war on us, lord count."

After Hodos finished telling the results of his autopsy, he said this.

Huidun and the others were also silent. It was obvious that the alchemist was provoking Huidun and telling them clearly that he had come to his territory and wanted to see what the alchemist could do to him.

There is no doubt that everyone present now has a ball of anger in their hearts. Not only do they not take Count Huidun seriously, they also do not take the church seriously.

Otherwise he wouldn't have used the undead potion that was so conspicuous to the church clergy.

As a wise shield who has become a political creature, in addition to being angry, the first thing he thought of was why this alchemist came to his tiny country at this time.

The territory under his jurisdiction can be said to be a remote area in the remote area of the kingdom, and its magic resources and population resources are not as good as those in other places in the kingdom.

Of course, Huidun's idea is not wrong. What these alchemists care about is their perverted magic research.

Moreover, known alchemists always choose densely populated areas with abundant magical resources to do things, so that their magic will have higher research value.

And the required research materials can be found quickly.

As for the strangulation of the strong.

For these lunatics, nothing is more important than experimental data, and they have learned a lot of hiding skills after fighting wits and courage with the humans on the mainland for so many years.

If we don't use field search, we really can't find them by ordinary means.

The formation of a domain must be at least platinum level, and the scope of the domain is limited. As long as the area they cause harm is large enough, it will take a long time to find them.

In this time, they would have already obtained the data they wanted in the prosperous areas.

So Huidun was wondering if the old guy Jamil was doing something behind the scenes, and was this also a warning for him to approach Professor Penbes during this period?

However, looking at Father Hodos, whose anger did not seem fake, Huidun fell into deep thought again.

At this time, the military camp outside Nanmu Forest was in a mess.

Collapsed barracks tents were scattered all over the ground, and blood spilled on the ground, staining the entire ground red.

At this time, the bodies of Como and his soldiers were dragged to the parade ground one by one by the undead skeletons. On the high platform of the parade ground, the alchemist was chanting and casting spells with his crystal ball.

Then we saw the corpses whose blood had not yet dried up quickly decaying, because these warriors had fighting spirit in their bodies when they were alive, and after they decayed, the skeletons that walked out of their bodies were all undead skeletons.

The body of Como, a peak silver warrior, made him somewhat excited. He ordered the undead knight to chop off Como's head, and then he took out bottles of newly prepared potions from his carriage and came to the headless corpse.

Then he was seen pouring the potion in his hand, and then he was chanting a fascinating ancient spell, and then he saw that the headless corpse began to move.

The muscles of Comona's headless corpse began to tighten and become stronger, and the originally flesh-colored skin was quickly turning dark blue, giving people a faint metallic feel.

Then a headless knight was quickly created by the alchemist.

Looking at the Undead Knight and the Headless Knight in front of him, the alchemist became more confident in his next plan.

He returned to his carriage, staring at the magic crystal ball in his hand with fascination, and kept muttering in his hoarse voice:

"Sword of the King, you are mine. I must have you."

After confirming that the other party was the alchemist, Huidun ordered martial law throughout the city and sent people to the military camp outside the forest to summon Como to transfer his troops back to the city.

Now we need to gather the forces that can be assembled quickly to defend Huidun City.

Since this alchemist obviously knows undead magic, combined with the previous tomb robbery, it can be known that this alchemist has already gathered a group of undead soldiers around him.

And the corpse sent by the alchemist is enough to prove that the guy is going to attack Huidun City directly.

Haodos ordered the monks around him to report the situation here to Jamil as soon as possible. It was because of this action of his that Huidun temporarily dispelled his suspicion of Jamil.

Because if Jamil really was behind this, then if he wanted to make such a big fuss, he would definitely need a lot of manpower and resources.

Father Hodos who is beside him must know something about it.

From just now until now, he observed the expression of Hodos, and saw only anger, tension and determination on his face.

And at this point, he didn't dare to gamble and could only believe that Jamil and the others were not playing tricks.

In order to face this crisis, the church has to use its power.

Now Huidun has done what he can do. He needs to go back to the academy and discuss with Adolf and the others how to find the alchemist and kill him in one fell swoop.

That's right, if you really want to kill this alchemist, you need strong people like Adolf to take action. This is also the case from the control of the time of death of Page's body just now, which shows that the alchemist is extraordinary.

Moreover, these guys are very good at hiding their tracks like rats. Only a strong man like Adolf who has a domain can catch him quickly.

This is also one of the reasons why Huidun had to join forces with Jamil.

At this time in the church, after listening to the monk's report, Jamil frowned.

He was very familiar with alchemists, magicians who represented darkness. After hearing the monk's report and the alchemist's control over power, he could guess that the strength of the alchemist on the opposite side was definitely not weaker than his own.

But why would such a powerful alchemist come here? Shouldn't he go to the capital and make a big news?

Jamil immediately ordered the knights in the church to go to the city walls to help defend the city, and also ordered the priests and other clergy in the church to be prepared.

If the alchemist really lets his undead army attack the city, then the light magic learned by these clergymen will be needed to help on the city walls.

That's right, Jamil has guessed that the alchemist who came this time is a madman. All he can think of is that this madman will start from the City of Wisdom Shield, slaughtering all living beings bit by bit to create an army of undead, and then destroy the entire world.

And this is the only reason Jamil could think of, from the perspective of those crazy alchemists, why he came to Huidun, a place that couldn't be more remote.

Although Jamil acted very sinisterly and decisively in the matter of Huidun, he still had the responsibility as a clergyman.

After giving the order, Jamil prepared for the worst and went to the bishop's prayer room in the backyard of the church.

Then he knelt down and began to pray to the small statue of the God of Light in front of him, and told what happened here and his own guesses.

This small statue is not just a statue, it also contains a magic sound transmission array, which is a communicator that can be used to contact the archbishop above him.

After reporting what happened here, Jamil left.

At this time, in the principal's office, after listening to what Huidun said, Adolf paced back and forth in the office, while Penbes was sitting there sighing.

These two people have lived long enough, traveled to many places, and have seen more than Huidun and the other two. Naturally, they have the same idea as Jamil.

"Adolf, please don't leave. Just tell me what you have in mind."

Penbes rubbed his head and said.

However, Adolf just said lightly:

"This guy wants to massacre the city."

His words shocked Huidun and the other two, and Peng Beisi also sighed, and then his eyes became fierce and said:

"If he really dares to come and massacre the city, then we should just rush out and find him and grind him to dust."

"Don't say these useless things. If the undead army really comes, if we really want to defend the city, we will need your and my large-scale magic support.

Besides, alchemists are good at hiding. Don’t wait until we find him before his army of undeads breaks through the city.”

Peng Beisi was a little discouraged for a moment, but he seemed to have thought of something, and then he looked at Chen Cheng beside him with his big eyes.

In his opinion, the only way to save the situation was Chen Cheng's variable magic. Perhaps by gathering all the resources in the city and working overtime, they could create a simple defense device with multiple magic powers.
