Chapter 622: Chapter 479 "The Undead Have Come Again!" XN

Kerrigan looked at the Crimson Lady, "Does the task you want me to undertake have anything to do with the Black Knight?"

The Crimson Lady, however, ignored him and spoke swiftly as if chanting, "Only by defeating the Sekapus Giant can we welcome the great arrival."

Her tone was devoid of emotion, and she spoke quickly, but at the end, she feigned a troubled sigh so poorly that it left Kerrigan feeling awkwardly suspended.

The inconsistency between her statements was clear, but he was used to it by now; people in this world often spoke without considering the past, which to the Undead who loved digging into the lore, could turn a single event into several game-like entrenched anecdotes, finding them fascinating. On the other hand, for someone like Kerrigan who wasn’t much for plots and preferred to skip, skip, skip! Getting great gear was all that mattered.

It was just that the acting was a bit terrible; had he not already known this was an NPC, he might have thought he was being set up.

Not to mention, it sounded like a tough boss, a Giant.

The Undead were already proficient at gnawing on tough bones by this stage, so the decision to take the quest was based solely on the rewards it offered.

Kerrigan pressed, "Aren’t there more detailed clues, or rewards? And what does this have to do with the Black Knight?"

The Crimson Lady slowly raised her arms as a dense black fog crept upward from her ankles, gradually enveloping her, yet her voice came through the fog unchanged.

"The Sekapus Giant is the arch-enemy of the great Melulan; to crush the arch-enemy is to herald the arrival of the great Melulan."

A raven flew out of the fog, its voice growing fainter, "Melulan is never stingy with rewards."

"So, you still haven’t said what this has to do with the Black Knight, huh?" He wanted to press further, but the raven was already gone.

Kerrigan thought it over and decided to release some basic information about the quest; given it was his exclusive mission, no one else could snatch it away.

"I’ve got a special task, and it’s related to the main line of the Black Knight!" Kerrigan posted, uploaded videos, and made announcements in group chats.

As expected, his actions immediately caught the attention of a large number of Undead.

Everyone was now in an excited state.

The war-torn Enstad Continent was bursting with excitement, with random battles and spells flying around - those involved, regardless of their original intentions, found themselves reveling in the carnage. Meanwhile, the other regions could only drool over watching others play, as videos of the battles were watched over and over again by the Undead of the other two continents.

After watching the videos, they analyzed them, speculated on them, and even checked out reaction videos - how older relatives or friends who never gamed would react, and so on.

One video was enough to have them excitedly viewing different reactions dozens or hundreds of times over.

Finally uncovering something new, the Undead of Shilu Continent were the most excited, feeling like the favored sons indeed.

The previously scattered ranks of the Undead began moving spontaneously, forming teams in droves and heading towards Sekapus. Many also private messaged Kerrigan, looking to reserve any quest rewards in advance.

Bombarded by endless private messages, Kerrigan had no choice but to make a stand.

"If it’s about equipping or weapons as rewards, then I apologize, but as a Blood Wart Demon, I might not be able to use them, and if some bros want to collect them later, they can come to me with an offer. We could even organize an auction like they do in online novels."

"If it’s a non-material reward, like a title or a cosmetic item, there’s no point talking about it since they can’t be transferred."

"However, I think the most likely reward would be exclusive information because the Crimson Lady asked me if I knew the Black Knight when giving me the task, and the direct cause of my receiving the quest was due to a previous encounter with the Black Knight. This is a chain quest that has been ongoing for years, and there are certainly more to come."

Kerrigan’s response came out rather hastily, but he still managed to adequately address several aspects of the situation.

With no main quests to pursue, even though they knew it might give Kerrigan a great advantage, they were nonetheless spurred into action.

Hordes of the Undead set foot once again on the red soils of Sekapus.

Some began to seek information.

Ding Dong was able to pry some secretive intel from NPCs employed by her, seeing as her primary job was a game broadcaster, and it was impossible to keep the news secret, nor did she intend to.

"Exclusive broadcast" was, without a saying, of utmost importance to online broadcasters, a juicy piece of meat.

"Wen Riven once traveled to Sekapus Kingdom and was instantly traumatized into torn flesh?"

She made a snap decision to visit Raven City and requested a meeting with Wen Riven, the one considered as "Legendary Level" "Angel." Fortunately for her, she acted swiftly enough, and luck was on her side, as Wen was in Raven City at the time.

Wen was different from other NPCs; she didn’t get bogged down with superfluous emotions. If she decided she could not speak about something, she wouldn’t say anything no matter how much she was asked, and if she thought something could be disclosed, she wouldn’t beat around the bush or conceal anything.

Confronted with the inquiry, Wen crisply and clearly explained the situation.

"That was a powerful Evil God who called itself the God of Giants, the God of Knowledge, ’Giant’ Sekapus. During our final battle for the Sekapus Kingdom, we were thwarted by It."

Wen seemed still to smell the scent of singed metal from that time, to see her once-pristine armor shattering in an instant, and her right eye resting all by itself amidst torn flesh.

The strong life force of the Undead Knight allowed her to strive for recovery, but it still took her quite some time.
