Chapter 497 - The power of the undead (1)

This time, the people surrounding Casar city panicked. No one could stop Zhao Hai and the others. Only the higher-leveled mages could use magic to help them escape. The lower-leveled mages were killed immediately. Then, they were turned into undead creatures and began to attack the other mercenaries with magic.

This time, the people were even more confused. In recent years, because of the suppression of Black Mages, many countries ‘armies no longer had Black Mages. The Arkas Empire was like this, so the soldiers had forgotten the terrifying power of Black Mages on the battlefield.

The scariest thing about Black Mages was that they could create a large number of undead creatures at any time. Even if the undead creatures weren’t as strong as the ones in Zhao Hai’s hands, they could still put a lot of pressure on those people. That was why black Mages were called death gods on the battlefield.

In the past few years, there had been no major wars on the continent. In addition, The Black Mages had been suppressed and almost disappeared from the Army. Even if the ordinary soldiers went through battle, they had never encountered a Black Mage. This time, they were really afraid when they met Zhao Hai.

Ivan was dumbfounded when he saw the undead creatures chasing after the mercenaries. He had seen Zhao Hai and Adam before. The last time he saw Zhao Hai, Zhao Hai was a rich Playboy. He felt that Zhao Hai had changed, he was more sensible and powerful. However, this time, he was scared when he saw Zhao Hai drinking his Keya calmly.

That’s right, he was afraid. As a warrior, a warrior who had killed before, and a Duke of a dukedom, he was afraid. He had seen many cruel and merciless people, but someone like Zhao Hai who turned those people into undead creatures without even blinking and then continued to kill even more people was someone he had never seen before. He had no choice but to admit it. When he saw Zhao Hai like this, he was terrified.

Many people could kill people expressionlessly. However, Zhao Hai was drinking Coke while people were killing outside. At the same time, he was casting spells to turn more people into undead creatures so that they could kill people. Under such circumstances, he could still drink Coke. This kind of person was too terrifying.

Ivan felt that Zhao Hai was no longer the Adam he knew. Zhao Hai had become cold-blooded, unfamiliar, and terrifying.

Zhao Hai noticed Ivan’s expression and understood immediately. He put down the cup and said, ” “Uncle Ivan, do you think I’m too cruel? Too cold-blooded?”

Ivan looked at Zhao Hai and sighed, ” “Little hai, I know that the drastic change in the Buda family has affected you greatly, but you have to know that many of these people are innocent. We should just beat them back.”

Zhao Hai looked at Ivan and shook his head. He sighed, ” “Uncle Ivan, do you think I want to do this? But I have no choice. They are our enemies now. You see how pitiful they are now, but have you thought about it? If we are not strong enough, they will become our pursuers. At that time, be it me or the Versailles clan, we will all be exterminated by them. Do you think they will be soft-hearted and let us go?”

Of course, Ivan understood the situation. If it was a war between two armies, he wouldn’t feel sorry for them. But now, the undead creatures were killing people. He couldn’t bear it. Perhaps, this was a blind date.

In fact, there were many people on the continent who had the same idea as Ivan. Otherwise, Black Mages would not be so unpopular. However, they did not think that the existence of a Black Mage could reduce the number of deaths of their Warriors. No matter what the black Mage used to attack the enemy, they would always attack the enemy. If you killed with a knife or a gun, the result would still be death. There was no difference.

Gelin was old and shrewd, and he no longer had any thoughts of giving in. He snorted coldly and said,”What’s wrong? Would you feel better if your underlings were to do it instead of the undead creatures? I think you’ve also been poisoned by those guys from the Church of Light.”

Ivan felt a little embarrassed when he heard Grimm’s words. He respected Grimm a lot because of his status in the Buda family. He also regarded Grimm as his elder, so he could only listen to Grimm’s words.

At this time, the other city gates also noticed the change and sent reinforcements. However, the reinforcements they sent this time couldn’t deal with the undead creatures and were scattered.

The 100,000-strong Army surrounding kassa city panicked. They immediately gathered a large number of troops and surrounded Zhao Hai’s group. However, Zhao Hai didn’t seem to notice any of them and continued to command the undead creatures to attack.

If one looked down from the sky, they would see a very strange phenomenon on the battlefield. Some mercenaries surrounded some undead creatures in the middle as if they were surrounding them and were about to destroy them.

But if you looked closely, you would see that the people in the mercenary uniform were falling down. After they fell, they were immediately wrapped by a cloud of black gas and turned into undead creatures. They then attacked the other people in the mercenary uniform.

The battle went on for the whole morning. Finally, the mercenaries could not hold on any longer and retreated. They no longer dared to surround Zhao Hai and the others and kill them, because they realized that the people around them were dying. Out of the 100000 people, more than 30000 people had died, and nearly 40000 people had died. The loss was too great.

What puzzled them the most was that even if the undead creatures were powerful, they shouldn’t have killed so many people. Some of them were only slightly injured and died soon after. Later, they found out that the weapons of the undead creatures were poisonous. As long as they were hit by those weapons, even if they were only slightly injured, they would be dead after a while.

However, these people weren’t prepared when they retreated. It could be said that they were retreating in a scattered manner. Once they retreated, Zhao Hai’s undead creatures would naturally chase after them. Those undead creatures didn’t know fatigue.

One side was infantry, while the other side was cavalry. The difference was naturally huge, but they had more people and it was easier to run. Even so, no more than 50000 people could escape.

After hunting down those people for an entire afternoon, Zhao Hai and the others obtained another 50000 undead creatures. They then returned to Casar city. After a simple meal, Zhao Hai returned to the place Ivan arranged for them to rest.

Meanwhile, Ivan couldn’t fall asleep. Zhao Hai’s performance today had surprised him. Not only was he shocked by Zhao Hai’s attitude in the face of death, but he was also shocked by the strength of the undead creatures in Zhao Hai’s hands.

Ivan finally understood why none of the people he sent to deal with Zhao Hai had made it back alive. Zhao Hai’s performance today would have been a miracle if they had survived.

At the same time, Ivan had to face the power of The Black Mages. Indeed, he did not pay much attention to The Black Mages in the past, because the mainland had suppressed The Black Mages too severely in recent years, especially the Arkas Empire. Because Borich was colluding with the Church of Light, they suppressed The Black Mages even more severely. Also, Ivan had heard people talking bad about The Black Mages since he was young. This preconceived thought had always made him feel disgusted with black magic.

It was for this reason that he had sent people to deal with Zhao Hai when he entered Rocky Mountain. The Versailles family’s Army didn’t have a single black magician.

But after seeing Zhao Hai’s performance today, Ivan regretted it. He knew that the soldiers would suffer the most casualties in a direct confrontation like this. They had had many conflicts with the surrounding forces over the years and there would be many casualties every time. However, with the presence of a black magician, the casualties would be greatly reduced.

Ivan couldn’t help but feel regretful for not having a black magician in his Army. But it was too late. There weren’t many black magicians on the mainland, and they didn’t trust them very much. It was almost impossible to recruit black magicians to their Army.

At this time, Zhao Hai had hidden in the medium. Grimm and the others were also sitting in the medium. However, Grimm was very happy. His face was slightly red. He was really excited because they had finally won the Mad dragon flag of the Buda family.

Zhao Hai looked at green and smiled, ” “Grandpa Green, I think you should go back to the iron Mountain fortress tomorrow. I think the matter in Casar city can be solved in two days. When the enemy realizes that their ordinary Army can’t stop my undead creatures, they will definitely ask for help from a level 9 expert.

Grimm thought for a moment and nodded. &Quot; &Quot; alright, I’ll go back to Iron Mountain fortress tomorrow. My wish has been fulfilled anyway. But young master, you have to be careful. If they really send a level nine expert tomorrow, you must hide in the space. I’m afraid that the Church of Light will take action. Their main target this time is you, so you can’t be in danger. &Quot;

Zhao Hai smiled and said, ” don’t worry. I’ll be fine. They can’t do anything to me if I hide in the medium. But you’re right. The Church of Light has been too honest recently. I’m afraid that they’ll send people to Iron Mountain castle to check on me after they find out my identity. So, it’s better for you to return to Iron Mountain castle and take charge. &Quot;

Grimm nodded and did not object.
