Black Warrior and Sayil walked along the street towards the center of Rat Dead Border City, followed by tall elite Hammer Skeleton Warriors on both sides.

This was the first time that Sayer went deep into the Rat-Dead Border City. All previous transactions were completed in the hut next to the city gate.

He looked curiously at the surrounding buildings. Each building was almost the same, very neat, with vegetation, flowers, and some trees.

Seeing that the types of these plants are basically similar, it seems that they are not planted casually by the citizens themselves, but planted in a planned way.

The undead seen and the legendary undead became separated.

The difference is too big.

In legends, the undead are existences that destroy everything. Wherever they pass, all living things will become extinct, and all life will return to death.

But the undead seen in reality not only follow the rules, but also do not kill randomly, and even build cities for the living beings to live in.

Sure enough, hearing is false and seeing is true.

If he hadn't seen it with his own eyes, Sayer would never have believed it if others told him that the undead would not kill indiscriminately.

They came to the center of the city, which was an independent place blocked by metal fences and iron gates blocking their way.

Sayer looked up and saw a sign on the iron gate with the word "Cemetery" printed on it in the language of the dead.

The language of the dead is the thing that surprises Sayel the most, because this language has its own magic power.

It is not a normal text, but a rune-like existence. Even if you don't understand the language of the dead, as long as you see the text, you will naturally understand its meaning.

Necronomicon texts act directly on the soul.

Sayer looked very strange.

Is this a cemetery?

The grass is green, the flowers are blooming, and the rows of green trees are full of life.

Whose cemetery looks like this?

Shouldn't a cemetery be a place where graves are next to graves and tombstones are placed next to them? As long as you get close, you will feel a chill in your heart?

Why is it the other way around when we get to the Undead, making it look like a big garden?

In the center of the cemetery, there is a huge building, which is dark and made of strips of stone. It exudes majesty and grandeur everywhere.

With various skull patterns embossed in relief, this kind of building is in line with the characteristics of the undead.

Several skeletal undead stepped forward and opened the iron door. The black warrior signaled that Sayer could continue moving forward.

Follow the walking path in the cemetery towards the Hall of the Dead.

"Is this a place to worship ancestors?" Sayer couldn't help but ask as he looked at the building getting closer and closer.

"The undead have no ancestors." The black warrior replied calmly.

"Is that a place dedicated to the god of the dead?" Sayer asked again. Apart from the temple, he couldn't think of any use for that building.

"Absolutely." The Black Warrior thought for a moment before replying. The statue enshrined in the Hall of the Undead is actually a statue of Li Ziyu. Is his master considered a god? He should be. At least he summoned his own undead souls.

Why does the city lord live in the temple?

Could it be that the city lord of the Rat-Dead Border City is a shaman or a priest?

It seems quite possible.

It is said that the city lord of the Rat Dead Border City is a human. The undead let a human be the city lord. If there is nothing wrong with it, he doesn't believe it.

The only possibility that can convince people is that this human being is a believer of the God of the Dead and has a very high status. Only in this way can he become the city lord.

His identity may be a shaman, a priest, a necromancer, a lich, etc.

The Black Warrior brought Sayel into the Hall of the Dead.

The main hall is very high, more than ten meters. After entering the main hall, Sayer saw the tall statue standing in the main hall at a glance.

"Ah, you are so majestic, the great god of the dead...?"

Sayer saw the statue and blurted out his words of praise without thinking.

Halfway through his words, he suddenly felt something was wrong.

Blinking his eyes and looking at the standing statue seriously, Sayer couldn't say anything else.

The God of the Dead is a human?!

My ancestors, what kind of joke are you kidding?

Sayer's face twitched and his mouth opened and closed twice, like a fish out of water.

The largest carved statue placed in the center is completely human. Although its face cannot be seen clearly, it still looks human.

The Black Warrior turned his head and looked at the dumbfounded Thayer, and said to him, "Go forward, the city lord is waiting for you."

"Ah? Oh."

After being reminded by the black warrior, Sayer came back to his senses and quickly continued to move forward.

After walking past the statue, Sayer couldn't help but look at the statue twice and then at the black warrior beside him. He wanted to ask why the God of the Dead was a human being, but he didn't speak and asked honestly.

forward.

There was a long corridor at the back, with many rooms on both sides. The Black Warrior took Saier to a room and knocked on the door.

"Come in."

Zhang Peng's voice came from inside, and the Black Warrior opened the door and motioned for Sayer to go in.

Sayer straightened his clothes, took a deep breath, and walked into the room.

The room was very spacious and was arranged like an office. Two humans were talking. When Sayer came in, the two stopped talking and one of them stood up.

"You must be Saier. Welcome to your arrival. I am Zhang Peng, the city of Rat Death Border City."

"Hello, Lord Zhang Peng, from the city-state of Illamaha, the rat-human merchant Sayer pays tribute to you."

Sayer quickly saluted and looked at the human in front of him who claimed to be the Lord of Rat Dead Border City.

This human being is young and wears very ordinary clothes. Compared with the rat-man nobles, he is just a commoner. His hair is messy, his eye sockets are sunken, and there are dark circles under his eyes. He looks listless and depressed.

To be honest, this is very similar to the city lord in Sayer's heart...

With preconceived notions, Sayer guessed that the city lord of the Rat Dead Border City was either a shaman, a priest, or a necromancer, and Zhang Peng looked somewhat like a necromancer.

There is a slump all over the body. Although he is young, he feels like an old man in his twilight years. This should be a side effect of studying undead magic for many years, right?

Sayer guessed in his mind.

This chapter is not over yet, please click on the next page to continue reading! He looked at another human being, but he didn't know what was going on with that human being, he just looked at himself with a smile.

Zhang Peng nodded and said to Sayer, "I already know about your matter. I am not the person you want to talk to today."

Sayer was stunned when he heard this. He didn't know why. If you don't talk to me, why would I follow you here?

Then he saw Zhang Peng pointing at the humans behind him and said to him, "Come and meet our true leader, the lord of the territory here, the master of the undead, the great lord of the undead Li Ziyu."

Sayer:Σ(?д?llll)

"Death, Lord of the Dead?!!!"

Sayer's lips trembled.

He originally thought he was here to see the city lord of the Rat Dead Border City, but he didn't expect to see the Lord of the Undead.

Taking two steps forward, Sayer knelt down in front of Li Ziyu with a bang, "Great Lord of the Dead, you are so majestic, and I am so humble. I never thought that one day, I, who is so humble, would be so lucky.

Seeing you, from the city-state of Ilmaha, the Ratman merchant Sail would like to extend his most sincere greetings to you."

He buried his head very low, but his mouth never stopped.

But doubts arose in my mind.

what is going on?

Why is the God of the Undead in the sculpture outside the temple a human being, and the Lord of the Undead is also a human being?

Why is the Lord of the Dead here?

I can't figure it out.

He could still understand why Zhang Peng was a necromancer who served as the city lord of the Rat Dead Border City.

But he couldn't understand it at all if the Lord of the Undead was a human being and not an undead soul.

These rat people look really happy.

Twitch, is that you, Twitch?

Li Ziyu stared at Sayil who was prostrating, complaining in his heart, keeping a calm face, and nodded, "Sail, I heard about you, get up."

With Li Ziyu's words, Tu... Sayer stood up and looked respectful.

"My black warrior told me that you not only want to be our partner, but also our ally?" Li Ziyu asked.

Sayer's body stiffened, cold sweat broke out on his forehead, and his eyes were filled with uncertainty.

The Black Warrior had just talked to him about allies, and then he was brought here.
