NOVEL NEXT chapter 17
Chapter 17 Catacombs Pantheon (3)
The earthquake that shook the entire cemetery lasted for a few seconds before coming to an unnatural abrupt stop.
Azu, who was sitting with her head down, got up and dusted herself off.
“What was the earthquake just now? And that talk….”
Az looked back at Elza, but Elsa was still looking at her wall decoration.
“Are you surprised? Az.”
As she said that, Elza’s face, which smiled, didn’t have the creepiness from before.
But even though the earthquake was severe, he didn’t seem to mind.
As for Az, she doesn’t have the courage to ask Elsa any more.
The sound of a flute echoed in the distance. She had decided to gather when she heard the sound of the flute.
The blue fire still shimmered.
Undead don’t even move. She didn’t even look this way.
Az and Elsa moved towards the sound of the flute.
Perhaps because of the earthquake a while ago, everyone quickly gathered.
It seems that no one is missing.
The male cleric in charge of the front line clapped his hands twice.
All eyes were on him.
“Attention. Did you all feel the earthquake just now? This is an underground graveyard. We don’t know what will happen as a result of the earthquake. I just checked the doorway, and luckily there was no debris pouring in. I want it to end here.”
With that said, he looked around at the participants.
There were no objections. No one wants to be buried alive and join the ranks of the undead.
Azudo, after Elza’s condition changed, she only wanted to leave quickly.
“Hey, Az.”
“Why, why?”
“Azu is the leader and I am the support, right?”
“My master told me to do that.”
“I have no disagreement either. Because Az is older than me. But will you promise to follow my instructions well here?”
Az noticed that the smile on Elza’s lips had disappeared. She
She grabbed both of her arms by Elza. Hard.
… She was shaking
“Okay. Because Elsa is a priest.”
“Yes, you promised? Ah, the graveyard will become hell from now on.”
“Hell, huh?”
“Yes. The exit… Look.”
Several people were thrown into the aisle trying to get out. As if you hit an invisible wall.
“I can’t go outside now. We are already recognized as prey.”
“Prey, who?”
“I told you earlier. The undead apostle of the sun god is here. He just woke up, so he must be hungry. Especially since they are undead.”
“I don’t know. But the sun god… Are you a god? I heard that most of the priests here are members of the Sun God Church. Why did the apostle become an undead and eat us?”
Elsa kept focusing her attention on one side.
That must be… It’s the castle
“Undead have a habit of copying the habits of their previous lives. Zombies bite because they are hungry. The same goes for the apostle of the sun god trying to suck out human souls. The sun god is never on the side of humans.”
Az couldn’t understand what Elsa was saying.
“Let’s stop talking about this. The important thing is that the apostle of the sun god will be resurrected from the graveyard, and he senses it….”
Elza’s voice was drowned out by the huge sound.
Before she could finish her words, the cemetery’s ceiling cracked.
The Catacombs of Ruindheim, which used to be a structure, turned into a pile of rubble in an instant.
“… The king of ashes will come.”
A tall figure that looked like it was 3m came down.
I landed holding a sword while covering my entire body except for my face in gray armor.
Her face is hidden by the black smoke.
Adventurers nearby screamed.
“The king of ashes! The Ash King has appeared!”
A monster that once reigned as a king. It was a disaster called the king of ashes.
The Ash King raised his sword without giving the adventurer a glance.
He raised the sword in his right hand and thrust the tip forward.
Az just watched the process.
Elsa pulled Azu and evacuated her wreckage behind her.
Then I hit the barrier again. Other adventurers hurriedly followed.
“Az, don’t approach the Ash King. I will die.”
The undead gathered in front of the Ash King and to their amazement began to eat each other.
It didn’t matter whether it was a skeleton or a zombie.
Crunch, only unpleasant sounds echo loudly.
The undead gathered one by one. The sight of them piled up like a mountain and eating each other. It deserves to be called hell.
One of the female adventurers stopped vomiting.
Azu also felt sick to her stomach.
Suddenly, the predation of their own kind stopped and the undead melted away.
While making a shape.
The figure faced the Ash King. It was a larger skeleton with four arms.
But it’s completely different from just a skeleton.
There were decorations here and there, and each held a shining sword in each of its four hands.
A blue light came from inside the empty eye socket.
Azu thought it was like a fire lit in a hole in the wall.
Seeing the Ash King and the four-armed skeleton facing each other was hostile to anyone.
I don’t know why the undead Apostle of the Sun God and the Ash King are facing each other.
The first to move was the Ash King.
The Ash King thrust his sword into his four-armed skeleton at such a speed that Azu’s eyes couldn’t keep up.
The four-armed skeleton deftly blocked the four overlapping swords.
Then a great battle ensued.
It was such an intense aftermath that I was shocked.
All the adventurers here were just watching the fight on a different level.
No matter who wins, the future won’t be bright.
At first glance, there would be no problem if the apostle of the sun god wins, but Elsa doesn’t seem to think so.
As the four-armed skeleton collided with four swords overhead, the undead rose from the ground.
It’s not the killifish that Arzu and the others were dealing with.
A hideous figure, rotting muscles, a terrifying atmosphere.
How did the apostle of God summon something like that?
The Ash King saw it and raised his sword high into the sky.
It was thick with a thin white mist that made Azu tremble. Several heavily armored knights appeared. It is the Knights of the Young Ghost.
In an orderly manner, he raised his sword to the Ash King. He must have been and still is a subordinate of the King of Ashes.
They started fighting each other.
The knights didn’t rush this way, but the ferocious undead were different.
We hurriedly launched a counterattack, but damage was done.
Az also received Elsa’s support to deal with it, but it was too powerful.
Not quite as much as the centipede, but if attacked even a little bit, Arzu would die easily.
It is truly hell. Where the hell did we come from
Az doesn’t know. Does Elsa really know?
Ah, why did this happen again?
