Chapter 214: Chapter 191: The 10 Imprisoned Bosses (5K)

Cazhen Town.

Separated from the Frozen Soil Mountain Range by a stream that one cannot easily cross.

The town’s architectural style was desolate and decrepit, formed on the ruins of once-abandoned settlements, except for the Spire Bell Tower in the center of town that pierced the skies like Talons, the houses were on average around one or two stories high.

The sun showed little favoritism to this town, being stolen away by Moon Mountain to the east as it rose in the morning and immediately hidden behind the Frozen Soil Mountain Range that split the entire Rand Kingdom in two by the afternoon.

Cazhen Town only received a short span of sunshine at noon, shrouded in gloomy air all day long.

The undead who went to participate in the attack on Star Dragon City were resurrected one by one. Unlike the favored treatment of Star Dragon City’s own, it had already taken them considerable effort to obtain a Magic Potion, a stark contrast to the ease with which the undead of Star Dragon City could obtain everything simply by tilling the fields.

Almost no NPCs could be seen throughout the town, Archbishop Mierben had no need of the living, only the dead roamed the town.

If the undead could truly die and not merely remain as corpses, their fate would certainly have been different.

"What do we do now?" the undead gathered together.

"Let’s go to the church first."

Cazhen Cathedral was built before the apocalypse, with its complex relief patterns, columns neatly arranged supporting the grand structure, a style utterly different from the dilapidated Cazhen Town.

The sun started at the sculpted relief of "one of the Knights of the Apocalypse, the Dragon Knight", whose head had been chiseled off above the church doorframe, casting elongated shadows on the ground that spread like a black carpet.

Before it was occupied and made the stronghold of Archbishop Mierben, it had once belonged to Sun Church.

Beyond Moon Mountain was a messy graveyard cemetery, curly iron fences hand-in-hand encircling an area of the cemetery larger than the town itself, serving the church’s backyard just right.

The undead did not find Archbishop Mierben.

"What should we do?"

If Archbishop Mierben were still alive, they certainly could muster a final effort. Playing a game was just like that, adversity made it thrilling and interesting.

After all, it wouldn’t hurt, and they wouldn’t die.

"Any chance he was killed?"

"Impossible! Their strongest is Lind, isn’t he just over level twenty?"

"But as far as we know, Lord Leon was over forty levels."

Over forty levels, that’s even stronger than Archbishop Mierben.

"Let’s give up, I also want to enter the Pigeon subspace"; someone voiced their opinion, "and have you all realized the main storyline is developing around Star Dragon Force?"

"Really?"

"If we assume our own Newbie Village, it just seems like a plain BOSS siege. Didn’t the official update say so? But Lind is definitely an NPC, there’s no doubt since he’s the village chief of the Newbie Village." As players in the same region, they not only studied themselves but also their enemies, especially an official favorite like Lind, from whom they would strip any information, leaving nothing concealed.

It’s just that Lind’s power increased every time he appeared, always outpacing their intelligence.

"If the main storyline of the Rand Kingdom becomes about rising power, that would be suitable."

Absorbing all forces indeed seemed like the main storyline, and Cazhen Town as a rival force indeed acted as a roadblock.

"Are we just giving up?" Some undead were reluctant.

"We’ve all fallen back to level 10 by now, even if we wanted to, I doubt we could reach Star Dragon City."

The calamity surrounding Star Dragon City was indeed being gradually cleared, but the number of undead in Star Dragon City wasn’t large, and their power decreased as it radiated outward. Naturally, the farther from Star Dragon City, the stronger the calamity.

"Is there a chance that Star Dragon City might send someone to guide us?"

Winning over captives had become a classic move for Star Dragon Force, entering an invitation code for Points, then directly starting old guiding new.

Although some still didn’t want to join Star Dragon City as captives, they truly lacked better options.

The sound of hooves soon brought a group of Red-Name Monsters.

Watching Lance and others, mounting Catastrophe Warhorses, come charging into Cazhen Town, the undead felt a jolt of fear.

"F*ck, they’re not going to slaughter us, are they?"

Undead attacking NPCs wasn’t considered an attack, just part of the game’s fun, and surely NPCs wouldn’t hold grudges, right?

While still discussing whether to join Star Dragon City, the undead of Cazhen Town felt they still held the initiative, until those Red-Name Monsters surrounded them, making them sense trouble.

"I remember playing an old game once, where slaughtering a chicken led to being hunted and having to massacre the entire town."

"You mean the town called Creekwood?"

Fortunately, things weren’t as bad as they feared, the undead lined up to register their details, received the Lion Badge, and the process went very smoothly.

After becoming "allies", the information atop the enemies’ heads, and their red names, disappeared.

"Where did Mierben used to live?" Lance kept an eye on the undead, sensing their reluctance to join Star Dragon City.

Being easily butchered would upset anyone, let alone having to seamlessly announce joining as prisoners.

If it weren’t for orders from Lind, Lance might have led his men to form a cordon and initiate endless slaughter throughout Cazhen Town.

Even if the undead could resurrect indefinitely, they could butcher endlessly, slaughtering them until they no longer wished to resurrect, until they perceived immortality as nothing but a curse.
