582: Chapter 582: Large-Scale Exploration 582: Chapter 582: Large-Scale Exploration Soon, the two n had left the place.
Zhao Guang remained still in his original spot for a long ti before he finally turned to leave.
With a raise of his hand, a spherical object appeared in Zhao Guang’s hand—it was a Recording Crystal Stone that he had been using carefully.
If Bishop Pogre had still been there, he wouldn’t have dared to use it for fear of being discovered.
But at that mont, there were only two people present, one a failure and the other rely a warrior—likely only possessing the strength of an Advanced Warrior.
Such people couldn’t detect the Recording Crystal Stone hidden under his spell.
“I’ll send this thing to the King later; he should understand what to do,”
He didn’t want an idiot to ascend to the throne, and before his own power was sufficient, he didn’t want internal chaos in the Empire.
Such conditions would serve him no benefit; only a stable environnt could best aid him in increasing his strength.
However, he decided not to concern himself with this matter for the mont.
Zhao Guang soon left the place and went next door.
Yes, right next door.
As the administrative center of the area, the Empire’s ruins were indeed right next door.
By the ti Zhao Guang arrived, he found the place desolate, almost turned into a mass burial ground.
“There are no stones left, wait, they didn’t tear it down to build the city next to it, did they?”
Zhao Guang looked over, feeling that it might be possible.
Otherwise, why build so close to this place?
Moreover, the site wasn’t a slum or a chaotic gathering place as he had imagined.
This place was actually a mass burial ground, filled with a large number of corpses.
Many of the bodies were fresh, suggesting that those who died accidentally had been dumped here.
This world was peculiar; the massive accumulation of corpses led to a very thick aura of death perating the area.
This place was no longer suitable for the living; under the condensed aura of death, nurous Undead Beings arose and road around.
Walking further, one could occasionally see Undead fighting each other.
When one Undead died, another would draw strength from its opponent, increasing its own power.
“After being nurtured for so long, there wouldn’t be any particularly powerful Undead Beings raised here, right?
Or perhaps, people co here periodically to deal with them,” Zhao Guang muttered to himself as he walked.
This place was, after all, once an Imperial City, and though now desolate, it was vast.
It would be impossible for Zhao Guang to explore this place on his own.
Besides, on the surface, it may well have been thoroughly investigated countless tis already.
If there were anything valuable, it would have been taken long ago.
After all, this place has been ruined for over a thousand years.
Given such destruction, it’s unlikely that any artifacts would have survived.
“However, the environnt here is quite good for my purposes.”
Feeling the overwhelming aura of death around him, and knowing that no one would approach this area, if there were any disturbances, they would be attributed to the Undead.
Therefore, Zhao Guang began to release his own Magic Power, mimicking and guiding the surrounding Death Power.
“Undead manipulation.” Zhao Guang dispersed his power, not towards the usual corpses, but targeting small animals.
It was hard to imagine how tenacious the vitality of rats could be.
Even in such an area, there were still rats surviving in significant numbers.
Moreover, these rats were even more adapted to the aura of death power, immune to its effects on them.
Unfortunately, against the spell of a Great Mage, these rats couldn’t withstand it.
The death aura instantly invaded the rats’ bodies, and one by one, they stopped moving and then lay down.
After a while, the rats opened their eyes, which were now entirely red.
Upon closer observation, the rats’ movents were a bit stiff, but they moved faster than before.
“Still have so instincts, good, go then, to the places you usually visit, and scout for .
If there is anything special, report back to ,” Zhao Guang vaguely issued the command.
After all, these were just low-level Undead, and re rats couldn’t understand overly complex commands.
As hordes of Undead rats dispersed, Zhao Guang’s large-scale investigation of the entire city ruins began.
Unknown if anyone had ever done this before, but certainly, there weren’t many who could.
Undead Mages, in particular, would find it difficult to even enter this place, as the Empire was very strict in its defenses against them.
As Zhao Guang explored, he continued walking forward, needing more rats.
After walking for a while, Zhao Guang continued Summoning.
He casually picked up a femur, then used Alchemy to modify it simply, letting it carry the control over the rats.
Otherwise, there were too many rats for him to control—this was a common tactic of Undead Mages.
As for the bone only lasting a few days, Zhao Guang didn’t care about that.
He planned to explore here for a few days, and then he had to return; there were plenty of tasks waiting for him.
Being away for a few days was of no concern, but a longer absence would cause people to worry.
As he walked, Zhao Guang continued Summoning Undead rats, constantly replenishing his rat army.
Along the way, he did encounter so special places, all kinds of underground chambers.
However, by the ti Zhao Guang got there, he found these places had been visited by countless people already.
Whatever may have been there originally was now just ruins and rubble.
No, so chambers had been opened up to be checked, because those marks were not naturally made.
In such cases, even if there were any hidden compartnts, they would have already been discovered.
Indeed, expecting to easily find sothing untouched was not straightforward, especially in these relics that had been exposed for over a thousand years.
Zhao Guang wasn’t too disappointed, or rather, he had been prepared for disappointnt.
Finding nothing was okay; he thought of it just as a visit.
This ti having encountered the Prince’s conspiracy by chance was already a significant gain.
After all, if the Prince hadn’t been foolishly discussing these things outside, Zhao Guang wouldn’t have had the chance to record them.
If that Divine Officer had still been present, he wouldn’t have been able to record it.
Everything was due to his good luck, or perhaps the other party’s bad luck.
Never mind that, he would continue the investigation.
Suddenly, Zhao Guang felt a rather powerful force.
It was an Undead Being, but its strength seed formidable.
