The Rise of the Cemetery

Here comes the undead.

A gossip that spread like wildfire spread quietly in the major taverns in Kazan Moyes City.

Some survivors who were "fortunate" to witness began to talk about the horrors of the undead in the tavern. It was not until the drow guards sent by the ruling council that they were invited and never looked back. These voices gradually began to disappear, but they were more secretive. Rumors about the city are still tenaciously spreading at the bottom of the city.

Some time ago, the team that went out to carry out the investigation mission brought back the definite evidence that the surface mages colluded with the Kuroshio mercenary group, and now there are signs of a large group of undead activities. Comparing them, it is possible that the battle between the surface mages has spread to the middle of the dark region ?

As the ruling class of the Underdark region, although there will be a delay in the transmission of information on the surface, the basic situation can still be grasped.

The imminent movement of the Undead Council and the various small cooperation and small battles between the Undead Council and the Mage Guild also spread to the ears of the heads of the ruling council from time to time, but they were all small adjustments outside their circle of life, and they could only be used as a joke for them It's just a joke of weakness and hypocrisy on the surface.

But now, these things actually appeared in front of their eyes, and touched their ruling dignity. Many caravans quietly disappeared in the dark and quiet passages near the city of Kazan Moyes, but there will always be some guys who slipped through the net and come back to complain, accusing them that these guys who eat vegetarian food can no longer control the city, even the people near the city Safety cannot be guaranteed.

This made the ruling parliament, which had been ambiguous before, unable to bear it any longer, and a series of fierce quarrels even broke out.

According to the light displayed by the stone statue of the Spider Goddess, it should be 2 o'clock in the afternoon, which is the time for the daily training of the drows, but Lusha, the second daughter of the fifth family, is walking in the wide corridor leading to the ruling hall.

The sharp heels made a crisp sound on the smooth marble floor, like a roaring war drum gradually beating, which also represented her current mood. Being humiliated and forced to explore dangerous and unknown underground ruins with a group of low-class people, he finally obtained definite evidence, but was silently lost in the long and complicated inquiries.

As the honorable second daughter of the fifth family, she has to endure such humiliation, which has already made her status in the family precarious. Those lowly and humble guys who are usually honest and obedient dared to take the opportunity to show off their power in front of her. All kinds of unbearable things made the anger in her heart burn to the peak, but there was no way to vent it.

The drow guard soldiers at the gate of the ruling hall bowed and saluted, but it didn't make her feel any better. She could even feel all kinds of disdain and covetousness from their lowered eyes.

This is the third inquiry, this is already the third inquiry!

Those old immortals whose rotten bodies should be devoured by spiders have already explained all the details in detail, but they are still asking about what they already know. They are deliberately humiliating themselves!

Full of anger, Priestess Lusha stepped into this playground of power that she had longed for infinitely.

After the door carved with exquisite patterns was opened, what appeared in front of her was a slanted downward stepped passage. The two sides of the passage were already filled with the power holders of various families. The platform accepts "questions" from all directions.

Lusha, who was dressed in a gray priest's robe, walked down slowly with her proud head up, her plump and graceful figure revealing the intricately decorated fine gold chain armor inside. She walked straight to the center of the circular platform without looking sideways, and then turned to look at the eight high chairs with upright backs facing her.

Those who sat on it were the top eight mistresses of the Kazan Moyes city, and the golden seat in the middle belonged to the first mistress of the family, Valoja. 8 mistresses, 8 drow priestesses with different attitudes and styles, each of them is enough to instantly kill all the women, supermodels, and stars that Li Xun has seen in his previous life.

Common sense in the world: women always have some unknown flaws! Those who can sit on it don't have the problems that these mundane people have. With a hot figure and bold and revealing clothes, if Li Xun appeared here, it would definitely end in a happy faint.

It's a pity that Priestess Lusha, who is also a woman, didn't show any abnormal expressions. Not daring to look directly at the eight mistresses who represent the authority and dignity of the Spider Goddess, Lusha put her eyes on the steps in front of them, and finally lowered her proud head to the ground.

"Priest Lusha, are you convicted?" A seductive but indifferent voice sounded from the top, judging from the position of the voice, it should be the first mistress Valoja.

"Dear first mistress, I don't know what crime I have committed?" Lusha's heart trembled. This was the first time such an opening remark. Could something have changed?

"As the leader of the reconnaissance team, you don't even know that there are undead creatures in your team?"

"Please tell me, my lord mistress, who is the undead creature? I didn't find any abnormalities when I led the team to perform the task!"

The voice of the first mistress Valoja fell silent, and another crisp voice sounded.

"Priest Lusa, according to the information from the ruling council, the blood demon you commended and recommended last time is an undead. He is currently leading countless vampires to wreak havoc on the outskirts of our city. Don't tell me you didn't notice it at all? Abnormal, or is there any special deal with him?"

Priestess Lusha trembled slightly. Such a crime is a serious crime that can kill a person. Deceiving the Goddess is punishable by death in any drow city. Thinking of all kinds of tortures, Lusha couldn't help trembling, and the haughty expression just now was swept away, replaced by resentment and fear.

"Dear mistresses, that blood demon has a special aura that makes it impossible to see through his essence, so I know almost nothing about him. I only know from the city guard that he is a newcomer. A powerful assassin who bought information in the city, he has no chance to understand his race and ability. However, he is indeed a powerful guy!"

Inquiry continues.

Even the owner of the tauren bar where the blood demon stayed, the thief leader of the thieves team, and the intelligence dealer who sold the information to the blood demon were all questioned on the round platform. Soon, every move of the Gorefiend after entering Kezan Moyes City was clearly sorted out.

After all the irrelevant people left the ruling hall, and there were less than 20 drow left in the hall, the discussion on how Kazan Moyes City responded to this incident entered the topic.

In addition to the 8 family mistresses, there are 5 dark mages in the hall. The most conspicuous male drow wearing the robes of the chief mage of the first family is Gogan, the twin brother of Mistress Valoja. Of course, his other most admirable identity is the face of the first mistress. Each of their five heirs possesses outstanding abilities, and together they support the unshakable position of the first family.

Although Gogan and Valoja jointly controlled the leadership of the city, in public, he still had to be under the order of the other mistresses, otherwise it would be disrespectful to the goddess. But Gorgon, who is in charge of the Dark Mage Tower, can completely ignore the mistresses of the major families, and freely exercise and control his own power.

The first item discussed by the ruling council was the attitude towards surface mages, and the second item was how to deal with the undead.

All the mistresses were extremely cautious on this point, because from the current information, all the information pointed to the first mage Gogang standing upright in the field.

The chief archmage of the first family of Kezan Moyes City had contact with the mage guild on the surface, and acquiesced in the activities of several teams of surface mage teams around the city. This kind of similar information has long been spread in private among the major families, but no one dares to directly question the decision of a 19th-level archmage.

Gorgon's face was hidden in the shadow of the hood, which was unknown to outsiders, but his mood at the moment was not as calm as his appearance. The agreement exchanged with the Mage Guild has brought great benefits to both parties, but the arrogant and domineering behavior of the Mage Guild's mage still pushed him into an embarrassing situation. These damn surface mages actually blocked the passage to the lower level of Kazan Moyes City, and it took 2 months to block it.

This kind of behavior is obviously inconsistent with the signed agreement, but there is no way to complain. The old immortal from the mage guild was perfunctory and fooling himself every time he communicated. Every time he said that those mages who were utterly rubbish would be withdrawn soon, but there was no movement for a long time. Fortunately, even the rival undead council has been provoked.

The turbulence of these days has already damaged his majesty, and it seems unknown whether these things can be truly compensated by the compensation provided by the Mage Guild. No one can figure out what the 19th-level Archmage Gogan is thinking, so everyone is watching and investigating, but almost none of them put it into action.

For a 19th-level archmage, except for the first mistress, Valoja, who can exert legendary strength to stabilize him with the support of divine arts, the other mistresses have no ability to suppress him at all.

At this moment, it is obvious that the open and secret struggle between the Mage Guild and the Undead Council has continued here. Now it is time for these drows to express their views. Should they lose their face and continue to let their fight go, or forcefully intervene to expel them all from this area.

The result was not what all drow expected, and they still waited for the further results of their struggle with each other. Kazan Moyes City remained completely neutral during this period.

The mistresses withdrew from the governing hall expressionlessly, and every drow mistress was cursing the domineering and stupidity of the first family in their hearts, but no one accused them, and everything was covered under the surface of calm.
