Hail the King Novel Chapter 895 - Dark Power

Chapter 895: Dark Power (Part One)

When they were about 50 ters away from the herds of zombies, those zombies seed to detect sothing. As if they slled the odor of living beings, they let out a series of deep, loud roars and moved toward the three, trying to surround them.

Right now, Fei was still in Barbarian Mode.

He raised his hand, and a gush of imnse power tied down about a dozen zombies, restricting their movents. Then, the three got close and observed the zombies.

-After a while-

“If I’m not wrong, these zombies were all the residents of this town,” Cain sighed, “They were turned into zombies less than ten days ago, but they can’t be saved anymore. This town is done. All the residents had been corroded by the evil energy and got turned to undead creatures. I can’t sense any life energy in them; it wasn’t any ordinary undead magic spell that turned them into this. I’m sensing the dark aura that only belongs to Hell. It is too familiar! How co this magic exists in this world?”

In the end, Cain’s sigh turned into gasp; he was stunned.

Akara was frowning, and it seed like her eyebrows were twisted and tied together. Suddenly, she reached out her finger, and a streak of white flas shot out, targeting a staggering zombie that was about 20 ters away.

As if it were severely injured, that zombie roared and fell to the ground.

That was the only offensive magic spell that Akara knew, and it was only effective against the undead creatures in Diablo World.

“That is right! They are dark undead creatures that should only exist in Diablo World. How co they appeared in this world?” After testing, Akara was sure of the situation as well.

Now, both Cain and Akara were shocked to their cores.

They all experienced the terrifying power of evil in Diablo World, and they knew how destructive it was.

The Diablo Continent was a bright and peaceful world on the rise, but it was shifted onto the path of destruction after the power of Hell invaded it. The undead magic spells in Diablo World created many undead creatures. Together with the demons and monsters, the entire continent fell in a short ti.

This dark power was the nesis of humans and all other lifeforms.

Like a poison without an antidote, this dark power was an unstoppable nightmare, representing utter destruction. Once it appeared, a world was about to end.

“How did this evil power suddenly appear in this bright and lively world? Is this continent going to walk on the sa path as Diablo World?” Akara and Cain thought to themselves.

People would only know what to treasure after losing it.

As people who witnessed the tragedy that overtook the Diablo Continent and the prosperity of Azeroth Continent, they didn’t want to see what happened to Diablo World repeat here. In their minds, this was like a second ho to them.

Fei also frowned as he continued to observe carefully.

He could see that the zombies wandering around further away were still wearing clothes and armor as they did when they were still humans, but their flesh turned greenish-grey and started to rot.

The joints of these zombies weren’t flexible as if they were made of rusted tal, and their expressions were dull and stiff.

So of their eyes already fell out of their eye sockets, and they were dragged by thin strands of flesh and hanging beside their noses. Their nails overgrew and looked like sharp knives, reflecting the sunlight and appearing to have a tallic texture.

“They are identical to the weak undead monsters in Diablo World – Zombies. They look the sa and have the sa auras. Except for their clothes... This gives

a bad feeling.”

Chapter 895: Dark Power (Part Two)

Fei had a good understanding of the undead magic on Azeroth Continent; it was different from the spell used to turn these people into zombies.

If the elents used by the undead magic on Azeroth Continent could still be recognized as one of the natural elents, then the evil and dark energy that appeared here wasn’t accepted and permitted by nature; it was extrely destructive and corrosive.

“Sh*t! If this energy spreads throughout the continent, what happened to Diablo World will occur on this land as well! Also, I’m sure that it won’t take that long! Perhaps this world will end in one to two years!” Cain woke up from the initial shock and said confidently.

“Let’s go into the center of this town. We can co to a conclusion later.” Fei realized the severity of this incident, but he didn’t want to draw any conclusions without more evidence.

He switched to Paladin Mode, and the holy aura spread out around him. The dozen or so zombies that were tied down by him earlier were turned into dust particles before they could do anything, and they were blown away like sand sculptures.

Right now, Fei’s Paladin character was at Hell Mode level 100. When facing these zombies that were equivalent to monsters at [Rogue Encampnt] in Normal Mode, he could kill them with his vast aura alone without using skills.

The three of them wandered around the town and found that the situation was even worse than what they had imagined.

Not only did all the residents die, but the evil energy also corroded the animals.

Like the plague, the evil energy spread all over the town, and it was beyond terrifying. It seed like almost nothing could counter this evil energy.

“Huh? There is a big one here?”

When they walked past the central square in the town, a giant, green zombie suddenly rushed out. Its skin already hardened to the degree that it was comparable to bone armor, and it was strong. Also, it was about three ters tall, and its fingernails were close to one ter long. Like ten godly weapons, they could easily cut through things.

This giant zombie had the strength of low-tier Two-Star, and it was three to four tis the size of ordinary zombies. Also, as if it had so intelligence, more than a dozen regular zombies surrounded it like its guards.

“Damn it! Is this zombie Corpsefire?”

Fei was shocked.

This giant zombie resembled that small boss ‘Corpsefire’ in the [Den of Evil], the first quest at [Rogue Encampnt].

“Is this a coincidence or sothing else?” Fei thought to himself.

Fei suddenly felt like he was thrown into a cloud of mist; nothing was as simple as it seed.

It seed like everything he was seeing was slowly rging with Diablo World, making him have an ominous feeling.

All the secrets that he couldn’t comprehend before were slowly revealing themselves.

“Holy Bolt!”

Fei raised his hand, and a mass of silver energy flew out.

It was the unique skill of the Paladin, and it was a natural counter to undead creatures.

That giant zombie instantly fell to the ground.

At the sa ti, Akara and Cain showed their hands, taking care of seven to eight ordinary zombies around them.

“Huh? What is going on?” Fei suddenly appeared surprised.

After he killed ‘Corpsefire’, he sensed that a streak of subtle and minuscule energy left the corpse of that zombie, giving him a familiar sensation.

Subconsciously, he raised his hand and tried to pull it in, and this streak of energy dashed over and disappeared into his hand naturally.
