Chapter 129 Phantom Minions

In Fast City, in the center of the Place of Legend, a huge tombstone was erected.

On this day, almost all the residents of Fast City came to the place of brave legend. Even many adventurers came here. They stood on the outside and truly felt the shock of the magical world for the first time.

Because the place of legend is currently honoring the only pope who died unnaturally in the history of the Star Pulse Kingdom, Elijah.

And this scene appeared in all the main cities of the Star Pulse Kingdom, and tombstones were set up for Elijah in the center of the heroic places in all the main cities.

As for the battle that shocked the world, almost no one knows the specific details. Even the combat personnel who were in the city without returning knew what happened to Elijah. They were all trying their best to deal with the undead around them and had no time to pay attention to the battle in the distance.

At this moment, in the center of the place where Fast City was celebrated, the city lord Holland was quietly watching the tombstone being placed properly, and the people around him had begun to sob softly.

"Lord City Lord, Feng Sheng seems to be nearby..."

"Don't worry about him."

Holland glanced at an alley outside the Land of Heroes and continued to speak,

"Inform the soldiers in the royal capital that we from Fast City are not required to take action. Now his level is too high, and our city guards are no match for him."

"As you command, Lord City Lord!"

While Helander was talking to his guards, Tan Xiao, now the highest-level wanted criminal in the entire Star Pulse Kingdom, and his group were outside the Land of Legend.

"Your Excellency Feng Sheng, it's almost time for us to leave. Leo has sent a message and they will be here soon."

The one who spoke was Lina. She had completely become a liaison officer, responsible for contacting Leo and getting the latest trends of the wanted team to help Tan Xiao decide on the next escape route.

The reason why Tan Xiao and his party returned to Fast City was because they learned a piece of news during their escape.

No. 13 Carter Street was attacked by the Plague Mage, and Amu immediately discovered the traces of the Plague Mage, and in time, he combined with the players of the [Red Light] Guild to barely hold on to the support of Fast City.

Although the Plague Mage was eventually killed, Amu also paid a heavy price. He was seriously injured and on the verge of death, and Ciri nearly died as well.

Therefore, Tan Xiao and others temporarily changed their escape route, came to Fast City, and went to the medical center where Amu and Xirui were admitted to investigate the situation.

After confirming that the two of them were fine and that they had even been promoted several levels by helping to kill the Plague Mage, Tan Xiao left the medical center.

Just when Tan Xiao left the medical clinic, Fast City announced the start of Elijah's memorial ceremony at the place of legend.

This is why they appeared in the alleys outside the Land of Heroes to witness this scene secretly.

"Let's go."

After Tan Xiao saw that the tombstone belonging to Elijah had been completely placed, he greeted the two people behind him and turned around to leave.

At this moment, Leo arrived early and stopped in front of Tan Xiao.

"Damn undead work! Go back to the capital and die!"

Leo spoke, with murderous intent in his tone, which surprised Tan Xiao and the others.

Leo's momentum was so strong that he wanted to kill them on the spot.

"Ok?"

Tan Xiao was the first to notice the abnormality and understood it instantly.

Instead of retreating, he advanced towards Leo.

Barbatos and Lina were stunned at first. This was different from what they had promised, but at almost the same moment they thought of a possibility.

As a result, the two of them rushed towards Leo like crazy without Tan Xiao speaking.

In an instant, the sound of fighting in this alley attracted the attention of the people around.

"Who?! Starting a conflict at this time? Anyone who dares to disrespect the Pope will die!"

The speakers were some fanatical believers of the Goddess of Courage. Their respect for Elijah made them intolerable to someone disrupting the memorial ceremony.

However, when they saw clearly that the culprit responsible for Elijah's death was Tan Xiao on both sides of the conflict, the situation began to get out of control. The excited crowd aimed at Feng Sheng, the most notorious adventurer in Fast City today, and threw magic spells one after another, hoping to burn him to ashes.

Among these overwhelming magics, a special mark magic was mixed in.

Tan Xiao didn't hide or evade, and took over this skill.

"Took the bait!"

So, according to the plan, he took out three teleportation scrolls again and activated them.

There was a flash of light, and the three people present disappeared instantly, leaving only Leo, who was pretending to be furious, and the Royal Capital Tiejun, who was belatedly arriving.

"Chase them all!"

On the other side, the seemingly embarrassed Tan Xiao and the others had used the teleportation scroll to reach the depths of the Shadow Forest.

All three of them were panting. Faced with Leo's full attack, they were almost unable to resist in just one encounter.

"The fourth-level magician is really powerful. He is even more oppressive than my wife when she is angry."

Barbatos wiped the sweat from his forehead and said with some fear, and in the friend interface he asked calmly,

"Success?"

"I have been marked. I believe that as long as I stay in the Shadow Forest, the other party will come looking for me soon."

After replying to Barbatos' question, before Tan Xiao could arrange for Lina to inform Leo to take a long detour before pursuing her, Lina had already received Leo's message.

"Your Excellency Feng Sheng, this."

The message clearly stated that several auras consistent with their group appeared in Fast City, running in all directions.

It seems that this is also the work of the undead to lure Leo away.

At this moment, Tan Xiao made a sudden move, grabbed a spotted deer that was foraging not far away, and used the undead skill [Life Drain].

"Damn the human race, let them die sooner or later!"

Tan Xiao suddenly spoke, his expression extremely ferocious, like a vicious undead.

Before Barbatos and Lina could react, two figures shrouded in black mist slowly appeared from behind a giant tree in the Shadow Forest like ghosts.

Tan Xiao was thankful that he had come into contact with the Book of the Dead and was extremely sensitive to the breath of the undead, so he could react the moment he felt something abnormal.

"Little guy, what happened in Wuhui City?"

Among the two figures, the obviously taller one suddenly spoke, his voice hoarse, like a piece of cloth being torn.

And standing next to it, Tan Xiao recognized it at a glance. It was the undead he saved from Leo that day.

Tan Xiao did not speak immediately. He looked at the other party cautiously. The aura belonging to the undead mage surged from his body. As the [Life Drain] spread, the plants on the ground around him began to wither.

"Humph."

Only then did the black mist around the tall undead gradually dissipate.

"Careful little guy."

When the other party revealed his true form, neither Barbatos nor Tan Xiao reacted. Instead, Lina took a step back. There was disbelief in her eyes, and she obviously knew the person in front of her.

"I am one of the Thirteen Thrones, Night Shadow under the Phantom Lord. Of course, you can also call me by my name in the world, Sere."
