The Lord of Evernight? Actually originated from a joke-like oath.
"The holy light will never go out like the sun, and the holy light will always shine on all things? So, since we have been abandoned by the holy light, let us plunge the world into darkness forever."
I was betrayed by the Holy Church I had been loyal to in the past, and lost my family and kingdom. Cursing the Holy Light of my past faith, I decided to bring a new order to the continent and completely sweep the corrupt kings into history.
"Since you are able to break your covenant and betray my kingdom and people for the sake of your own kingdom, then I will destroy your kingdom."
Okay, I know this sounds very chuuni, but doesn’t everyone have a chuuni history in their memories that they want to eradicate?
A middle-class second-class person is scary, but a middle-class second-class time traveler with a golden finger in the system is even more terrifying.
The evil lich system calculates the points I gain based on the causal changes caused by my actions. Pranks and the like have little impact and the rewards are not many. As long as I bring death and destruction, I will get infinite points, and those points will
Make me stronger and cause more suffering.
And what could bring more death and destruction than a world war.
Well, a war, a war that destroys everything.
As recorded in the epics on the surface, the nameless Lord of the Dead aroused the unyielding army of the dead, and the black wings of the vampires blocked the sunlight in the sky, and eternal night fell.
In the boundless night, the dead danced on the battlefield, and the crazy black knights began to hunt for human heads. When the horizon was spread by the white thread, the ocean of skeletons had reached the shore, and the long bloody night began.
arrival.
In that war, as death spread, my strength and army also skyrocketed. Later, I even became the only demigod-level undead monarch in modern times.
The Great Emperor of the Undead, Lord Eternal Night, has become a nightmare for all living beings.
Under the undead natural disaster, four great empires that had been inherited for more than a thousand years came to an end, and three principalities and six kingdoms were also swept into the garbage dump of history.
No one knows why Lord Yong Ye becomes stronger and stronger in the war, where does he get the magic power to control thousands of armies, and where does he get the power to command dozens of undead monarchs.
In the end, the endless ocean of the dead submerged everything. When the Eternal Night Army of Lord Eternal Night defeated the coalition forces from various countries organized by the Holy Church, everyone thought that the era of the living was about to end and the era of the dead was coming.
But suddenly, a piece of news spread throughout the world, and everyone was surprised and crazy about it.
Lord Yong Ye was assassinated and the army of the undead disintegrated!
"Red Lotus Brave" Adam Han became famous overnight.
The entire continent of Ashe is praising this name. The old man raised a glass of wine for him and wished his fame would last forever. The middle-aged people loudly praised his heroic epic. The young people and children regarded him as their future goal and idol.
According to statistics after the event, if it were not for the hero Adam Han who came out of a fairy tale and led his adventure group to kill Lord Yongye, I am afraid that the population of the entire continent would have been reduced by more than 70%.
But at this moment, the legendary hero looked like a child who had been fooled, his face full of displeasure.
"Hey, I'm about to die. You should tell the truth. Were you letting the water go? Why are the guards so empty? Why are the red hounds of the Imperial Guard thousands of miles away? Why are there people around you?
There is not even a single monarch-level undead, so why would you, a peak demigod, lose to us, a group of peak legends?"
I hesitated for a moment, but in the end, I still didn't tell the truth.
"Well, don't you know that if you die and then resurrect, you will lose part of your memory? I have long forgotten what happened back then."
In fact, that year, after destroying the several kingdoms that were adding insult to injury and killing the Holy Light Bishop who betrayed my motherland, the Xilan Principality, I became less angry and at least became more rational.
A little deduction will tell you what will happen next. If the Eternal Night Army continues to advance, nothing will be gained except endless death and destruction.
But at that time, I was already riding a tiger and it was difficult to get off...
When the undead monarchs under me are all excitedly talking about the great cause of founding the country and discussing how to turn the entire Ashe continent into a paradise for the dead, the Eternal Night Army composed of hundreds of undead monarchs and princes is no longer something I can stop.
.
So...as the leader of the alliance, I died naturally, but I left my last words. Only by obtaining the Scepter of Eternal Night as a symbol of royal power can I become the symbol of the next Undead Emperor.
"The artifact, the Scepter of Eternal Night, the symbol of immortal kingship, is said to be the possession of Lord Eternal Night. It contains the powerful secret of the Lord, but it has never appeared on the stage of history." The artifact illustration of the Tower of Ten Thousand Laws is like this
Introducing Yongye Warrants.
Of course, because I died too hastily and did not say what the Scepter of Eternal Night was, each prince suspected that the other had hidden it... Then, who said that the undead have no desires? Power, rights, and wisdom.
Creature's favorite.
Well, needless to say more about the next development. The civil war broke out and the natural disaster of the undead ended. Now, in the country of the dead - the Xiro Empire, more than half of the top twelve undead monarchs are from the coalition.
Old acquaintance.
"Haha, there is actually a legend that the person who obtains the Scepter of Eternal Night will become the next Emperor of the Undead. Unfortunately, this legend will eventually be false, because... what kind of Scepter of Eternal Night is there in this world!"
Yes, even the name Lord Yong Ye originated from a joke. How could there be such a strange artifact in the world? Everyone was fooled by me.
As for me who has successfully taken revenge, I no longer have any goals. I die once and change my vest, and I become a good man again.
I originally planned to resurrect, start over from scratch, accumulate strength, wait for the so-called "game plot" to unfold, and wait for the return of my stupid brother.
Perhaps, the only thing that was not in the plan was that the sage Margaret saw clearly the reality and knew that it was difficult for the lich to die cleanly. As a result, she sealed my phylactery and bound me.
And here, Sulfur Mountain City, was originally just a wasteland where they chose to live, but the arrival of some refugees turned this place into the original Sulfur Mountain City.
In the crisis-ridden underground world, the protection of the strong is more important than anything else. At least, you will not fall prey to slave traders or the food of beasts.
Indeed, Adam is quite helpful. Margaret is willing to do anything as long as Adam agrees. Xiaohong is very happy to meet a new toy, which is me. In order to earn points, she is also willing to take action.
As a result, more and more refugees came to seek shelter, and gradually the town of Sulfur Mountain was formed. Over a hundred years later, the former small village has become a well-known paradise city.
As a result, the three idle guys became the so-called Big Three of the city. Adam became his mascot and the city lord, Margaret was pushed to the shelf to manage the administration, and Xiaohong still slept in her sleep and woke up to everyone by chance.
Adding to the chaos.
And when I saw that they were too busy to do anything, I had seen enough excitement and was equally bored, so I created this administrative and legal system based on the experience of my two lives, which continues to this day.
Looking at the lich playing with his finger bones in front of him, Adam also sighed deeply.
According to the mainstream concepts of the Ashe continent, Holy Light and Law, which represent order, and death and destruction, which represent chaos, should be two incompatible camps. When a life is born with a certain racial identity, his camp will be different.
has been determined.
"When we heard you say you planned to be a justice and manage the law, we all thought you were still joking. Unexpectedly, you actually did it. Our most famous judicial system in Sulfur City, known as the highest masterpiece of the Order camp, actually
It comes from a lich who creates chaos and death, no one would believe it even if he told it."
And the lich in front of him was even more incomprehensible.
Call him a good guy. He has caused countless tragedies single-handedly. He is also the immortal lich incarnated by evil chaos. Call him a bad guy. In these more than a hundred years of getting along, not only have we not seen any shocking evil deeds, but we have seen him.
Enforce justice fairly, eliminate evil and promote good.
Long-lived races such as vampires and elves often live at an extremely slow pace of life. Dragons and undead are even more famous for having no sense of time. Normal short-lived species cherish life and are busy. However, if they live for half a hundred years, they will not be mentally satisfied.
Tiredness and pain will make them sluggish and inactive.
Humans are social animals, and staying away from others will only make them lonely and eccentric.
Someone has made statistics. No matter how kind and upright a mage who became a lich was before, hundreds of years of living in isolation, the eyes of outsiders, and the corrosion of black magic will make him lonely and evil.
Even an immortal warrior like Adam could live for one day, but the lich in front of him not only did not become silent and scrupulous like his kind, but was extremely active, creating new troubles every day.
"You freak... To be honest, I really envy you sometimes."
"Um?"
"...Spellcasters and Spellcasters, your original code can actually provide advanced professions such as just knights, spell casters, and judges to the strong. This undoubtedly shows that the source of order has recognized the power of your code.
Power, as the founder of the power of order that is at the same level as the Holy Light, you should have touched that edge."
Hearing this, I paused. It seemed that I had once again underestimated the man in front of me. He was indeed a demigod-level warrior who had made it to where he is today step by step. He seemed to have touched that hurdle, the realm that belonged to the gods.
I rolled my eyes and started to lie, but looking at Adam's life-short appearance, I hesitated for a moment. Finally, looking at the years of friendship, I decided to tell the truth.
"Haha, death has given me infinite power, but the dead are inherently deficient. The dead will never be able to step into that realm. If they are resurrected, they will probably be able to touch the edge."
"Is it worth it? Death also takes away your body, strength... and you should still have memories. How much of the past do you still remember, and the days when we took adventures together."
"Evanli, Cavins, father..." Several faces flashed through my mind, but most of these unforgettable faces were incomplete...
However, I will not regret it. At least, I have avenged them. As for memories, it is enough for people to live in the present. Always recalling the past will only make people weak and boring.
"Of course it's worth it. My ambition is the stars and the sea. My code of justice will one day surpass the boring power of the Holy Light."
"Ha. I'm so envious of always being so energetic. Then I will be more confident in handing over Sulfur Mountain City to you."
I was so surprised that it took me several minutes to reattach the dislocated jaw.
"Are you kidding me?! How can a prisoner be his own jailor? Don't even think about giving up your hands to the governor!"
