Chapter 2690 Fluctuation
The so-called ghost market was actually a catacomb.
The environment of the catacomb was special. At night, a strange mist would linger, making it difficult to see people's faces.
Normally, any clandestine transactions were conducted at night in the ghost market.
Over time, the ghost market became a highlight of the Dark City, gaining widespread notoriety and attracting various dark factions to trade.
The players had not yet reached the ghost market, but they could already feel a strong undead fluctuation emanating from the market's entrance.
What was going on?
An undead aura fluctuation!
Compared to the previous undead aura they had sensed, this one was much stronger.
Could the undead faction be making a move?
As they moved forward a few steps, the players saw two undead faction instructors standing at the ghost market entrance, staring down into the market below, seemingly observing something.
"Instructors!!"
Upon seeing the two instructors, the players immediately stopped and respectfully gestured to them.
Instructor Aki turned around and looked at the newcomers with a calm expression, "You're here. From the look on your faces, it seems the situation is still under control."
The players exchanged glances, their faces showing traces of bitterness.
Where the situation was still within control?
They could not control anything at all!
Whoosh!
Just as they were about to say something, everyone's expression suddenly changed.
A black aura poured out from the entrance of the ghost market!
The players' hearts skipped a beat, and they all turned their gaze toward the entrance of the ghost market.
The black death aura continued to surge out from the cavern entrance below the market!
They could clearly sense that a powerful force was flowing from within.
"Please, instructors, assist us."
Instructor Aki raised a hand, gesturing toward the ghost market passage, which was surrounded by black mist, and nodded, "We'll handle it. Now, I need you to return to the city. If the city is attacked and the Holy Court breaks through the Dark City's defenses, send us an immediate signal."
"Yes, Instructor."
The players exchanged looks again and nodded in unison, hurriedly heading back toward the city wall.
The force they had felt earlier from the ghost market was extremely powerful.
And from the behavior of the two undead instructors, it seemed they were fully prepared.
Had the high-ups of the undead faction made a major move?
....
At the same time, on the other side of the death realm passage, Fang Heng was busy controlling his zombie clones and arranging materials.
Creating a small-scale death realm was not that simple.
Just talking about the land alone, the land of the death realm had been tainted by the aura of the death realm for at least tens of millions of years, and it contained an extremely strong death realm aura.
Many building blueprints exchanged from the Dark Clan included descriptions, stating that they could only be effectively established on highly concentrated, corrosive underworld soil.
The land also had to be dug up, and not in small quantities!
Once the land was dug up, the stones, trees, and other materials from the death realm had to be brought back too.
The withered trees of the death realm, which could retain their tree form even after death, had become a new life form.
They could not be seen or cultivated outside the death realm!
While he was busy, Kotal and the returning Dark Clan members quickly communicated with each other, then turned to Fang Heng and Teacher Gu Luo and nodded, "Everyone, the situation on the other side of the teleportation passage is not looking good."
Fang Heng asked, "Is it the Holy Court?"
Kotal nodded slightly and said, "Yes, they might have noticed the death aura leaking from the Dark City and have launched an attack. Given the Dark City's current capabilities, it's going to be hard to hold them off."
Teacher Gu Luo had already received the news from the stone slab.
The Dark City did not have the previously established teleportation passage. To complete the teleportation mission, they would need to move materials into a city that had a teleportation passage.
Originally, if the Holy Court had not made a move, the undead council would have considered temporarily constructing a teleportation passage to Miyisca Fortress to facilitate the transfer of materials.
But now, the Holy Court had arrived.
They were even urgently sending the Temple Knight Legion from the Holy Realm to attack Dark City.
With such combat strength, unless the undead faction's instructors personally joined the battle, it would be impossible to stop them.
But the problem was that even if the undead council wanted to intervene, the instructors couldn't all arrive in Black Rain World for reinforcements in a short time.
Moreover, once the undead instructors entered the battle, it was highly likely that the Holy Court's high-tier judges from the Holy Realm would also descend. Then, it could be expected that both sides would continuously strengthen their forces in Black Rain World, escalating the situation and gradually expanding the scale of the battle.
Gu Luo looked at Fang Heng, "What do you think?"
"Mm..."
Fang Heng lowered his head, deep in thought.
The Holy Court had a strong reaction.
Should he go out to the Black Rain game world?
At worst, he could exhaust Abe Akaya's strength once more.
But upon further consideration, he felt it wasn't a good idea.
Once he joined the battlefield and was discovered, or if the Licker or Abe Akaya were discovered by the Holy Court, the Holy Court would also focus all their efforts on attacking the Black Rain World, which would backfire.
What to do?!
It would be best to lure the disaster creatures into the Holy Realm and let the Holy Realm descend into chaos.
Fang Heng thought with malicious intent, and his gaze slowly shifted toward Kotal.
Kotal also looked at Fang Heng, seemingly understanding the meaning behind Fang Heng's eyes. He explained, "Our death realm is in a precarious situation, and we may not be able to assist you. However..."
Hmm?
Fang Heng's heart stirred as he looked at Kotal.
The death realm's situation was indeed dire, and the Dark Clan was already struggling with the disaster. He hadn't planned on using the Dark Clan's strength, but hearing Kotal's words, Fang Heng suddenly felt that Kotal might have misunderstood something. He followed up, asking, "However, what?"
"However, Fang Heng, your private team that you recruited is not included in this situation. They might be able to help a little."
Fang Heng suddenly had a clear realization.
The private mercenaries he had recruited from the Dark Clan?!
Yes!
He had completed the Dark Clan-related questline earlier and triggered the alliance with the Dark Clan to deal with the Disaster.
These mercenaries were under his control!
Moreover, there was no rule saying they couldn't leave the death realm or couldn't fight the Holy Court!
He could use the Dark Clan's army as combat strength and send them to the battlefield for reinforcement!
Furthermore, the Dark Clan army could directly use their teleportation passages to enter various game worlds from the death realm.
It was time for an all-out war!
A cold glint appeared in Fang Heng's eyes.
Even if the Holy Court poured all its strength from the Holy Realm into the battle, the undead faction's instructor team would not just sit back and do nothing. They would certainly join the battlefield.
By then, the situation would be thoroughly muddied, and Fang Heng could take advantage of the chaos in the battlefield!
Moreover...
The Dark Clan army from the death realm might not even be inferior to the army from the Holy Realm!
Fang Heng suddenly realized that he still had a mission related to the undead faction fighting the Holy Court!
The mission reward was exactly what he needed most right now—King of Gods' points!
If he controlled the Dark Clan army to join the frontline and strike at the Holy Court's forces, he could also gain a substantial amount of King of Gods' points!
