Wuhun: Desert Death on the left hand, the world on the right hand
Chapter 256: 1 Emperor, 4 Kings, 2 Generals
The light of the teleportation array faded, and Bai Yun found himself in a dark and cold world.
The sky is always covered with thick dark clouds, with a few rays of dim light occasionally leaking through.
There was a faint smell of decay in the air, which made people feel a little uncomfortable.
He looked around and found that the terrain here was completely different from that of Douluo Continent. The land was a sickly grayish-white color, with no grass growing. There were only strange black rocks and withered trees scattered around.
Bai Yun still maintained the disguise of a low-level skeleton soldier, walking cautiously towards a city in the distance.
The name of this city is "Mingyuan City". Its walls are tall and built with huge black stones. There are ferocious skull patterns carved above the city gates.
After entering the city, Bai Yun discovered that although it was gloomy here, most of the people walking on the streets were humans. However, their faces were extremely pale and their eyes were empty, as if they had lost their souls.
Most of these people wore black robes with various bone ornaments hanging around their waists. Some of them also controlled some death puppets or zombies and wandered around the streets.
Of course, there are also some real undead creatures, such as skeletons, zombies, ghosts, etc., mixed in with the crowd.
He walked into a tavern called "Dead Man's Rest", which was crowded and had a weird atmosphere.
Bai Yun found a corner to sit down and ordered a glass of "Soul Wine". He sipped the wine slowly while listening attentively to the conversations around him.
"Have you heard? Lord Necromancer seems to be coming out of seclusion soon!"
A pale human whispered.
"Is this true? The Emperor has been in seclusion for a thousand years. If he really comes out, it will be a great joyous event!"
the other responded excitedly.
"I hope that after the Emperor comes out of seclusion, he can lead us to completely conquer the Light Plane!"
A human controlling a skeleton puppet had a fanatical light in his eyes.
Bai Yun's heart moved. It seemed that this undead plane was ruled by a powerful being named "The Emperor of the Undead", and this emperor was about to come out.
He continued to listen, and gradually understood that the humans in the Undead Plane were not born that way, but were affected by some force that caused their vitality to weaken and their bodies to gradually transform into a state similar to that of the Undead.
Enhance your power by summoning and manipulating death puppets, corpses, and various undead creatures.
The Emperor of the Dead is the supreme ruler of the Undead Plane. His cultivation is unfathomable and he has four kings and twelve generals under his command. They are called "One Emperor, Four Kings and Twelve Generals" by everyone in the Undead plane.
The four kings are: Pluto, Ghost King, Bone King, and Soul King. They are all the best among humans and possess powerful summoning and manipulation abilities.
The Twelve Generals are composed of humans and powerful undead creatures, each with their own strengths.
Some are good at summoning, some are good at manipulation, some are proficient in formations, and some are good at assassination.
The Plane of Death has always been hostile to the other planes, especially the world known as the "Plane of Light", and has constantly attempted to invade and conquer them.
Bai Yun muttered to himself in deep thought, it was obvious that this undead plane was more complicated than he had expected.
To find the Holy Spirit Leader and Xue Wu in such a strange place is like looking for a needle in a haystack.
He hesitated whether he needed Amu to bring people from the Intelligence Bureau to assist him, or to solve his own identity problem first.
Just then, he vaguely heard someone discussing recruiting soldiers.
"Have you heard? Ghost King City has started recruiting soldiers!"
A short and wretched necromancer whispered to his companions.
"Really? Didn't we just close recruitment last month? Why is it open again?"
Bai Yun felt delighted, this was an opportunity he could not miss.
He tilted his ear slightly, looked around, and after making sure no one noticed his movements, he approached the necromancers and asked casually:
"Hey, brothers, I just arrived in Mingyuan City and I'm not very familiar with it. What is the situation of recruiting soldiers you mentioned? Are there any restrictions?"
The necromancer looked Bai Yun up and down with a vigilant gaze, as if estimating his value and degree of dangerousness.
After a moment, it was clear that Bai Yun was not a threat at all, and his tone relaxed: “This is simple, the Lord of the Dead is preparing to go out of seclusion, and his subordinates are expanding their teams in all major cities.
Especially Ghost King City, which is planning to make a big move recently. The requirements for new recruits are not high. As long as you can control some basic undead creatures or have a basic combat foundation, you can join. "
As Bai Yun listened, he thought that if he could sneak into Ghost King City, he would not only be able to obtain more intelligence about the Undead Plane, but also gain a legal identity for himself.
With this thought in mind, Bai Yun asked again: "What are the benefits of joining Ghost King City?"
The necromancer grinned and said grimly, "The treatment is not bad. I heard that every new recruit will get a necromancer core this time, and there is a chance that they will be noticed by their superiors and promoted directly."
After hearing this, Bai Yun felt more confident.
"Thank you, brother, it looks like a good opportunity."
"You're welcome."
The necromancer waved his hand and continued talking to his companions about other topics.
Bai Yun quietly left the tavern and walked towards the street outside. He had already come up with a plan.
He needed a hidden place, and asked Amu to bring people from the Intelligence Bureau to help him and steadily advance the plan.
He deliberately slowed down his pace and looked around vigilantly to make sure no one noticed his abnormality. He then quietly blended into the crowd.
Then head down a narrow alley toward a secluded street.
The necromancer in the tavern watched the strange figure of Bai Yun go farther and farther away.
Then, he turned around and exchanged a meaningful look with his two companions at the same table, as if they had a tacit understanding.
So, they put down their wine glasses without making a sound, stood up quietly, and followed behind Bai Yun like a shadow.
Bai Yun quickly noticed the movement behind him, but he was not afraid. Instead, he thought this was a good opportunity.
He knew that there were too many people in the tavern and it would be difficult to obtain more detailed information. Now was a good opportunity to capture a few people and find out some news.
After walking through several blocks, he came to a quiet forest outside the city. He deliberately slowed down his pace, hid behind a big tree, and waited for the right opportunity.
Bai Yun leaned against the thick tree trunk, ready to deal with any emergency.
His eyes were wandering, as if he was casually appreciating the surrounding scenery, but in fact he had already sensed three auras approaching from behind.
Not far away, three necromancers gradually appeared.
The leader sneered and said frivolously, "Boy, you run pretty fast. But, can you get rid of us with just your little bit of intelligence?"
Bai Yun smiled calmly and straightened his body.
Seeing the three people approaching, Bai Yun's eyes flashed with sharpness.
"Three ordinary gods dare to attack me?" There was a hint of coldness in his words.
He knew very well that in this dangerous city of Mingyuan, only thunderous means could protect himself.
The next moment, his martial spirit was suddenly released, a cloud of dust rose in the air, a gourd-shaped hourglass quietly hung in his palm, and a strange and heavy aura instantly spread out.
When the strong wind passes by, the world seems to freeze and time seems to stand still.
