The Reader And The Protagonist Definitely Have To Be In True Love

(Chapter 70) Reader: People who do not court disaster will not die

600 years ago, a Lich named Louis came out of the Lost Land, spreading pestilence, killing creatures, and forming an army of the undead. In that period, if the undead "ate" a town there would be no survivors. The panicked humans couldn't stop the undead; it was like a natural disaster and the only way they escape the undead was to flee.

Therefore, this wholesale slaughter was called the "Undead Scourge" and the Lich Louis earned the title "god of death." Because of the Scourge, the three empires lost nearly half their population and about one-third of the towns were destroyed. Later generations, regardless of where they came from, would pale when they talked about Lich Louis.

The reason that Du Ze knew so much about it was because the author had written about it in detail. In the original standard YY novel "Mixed Blood," Yi Ye Zhi Qiu spent almost three chapters introducing the Undead Scourge and Lich Louis. At that time Du Ze was still very silly and naïve so he did not understand the author's good intentions. When he read about the Moe Lord being arrested because of his relationship to Louis, the silly, cute reader finally understood his family's author's great lunacy – that introduction was entirely for the sake of paving the way for the Moe Lord to be abused.

Author, you're begging for a beating! Q口Q

Thinking of the original plot, Du Ze still felt indignant. Although Xiu did get Qian Bian from Louis' Magic Tower, it also indirectly led to the awakening of his undead bloodline. To prevent Xiu's fate of being hunted all over the continent and suffering from betrayal and inhumane treatment, Du Ze would rather that Xiu had not gone to the Magic Tower trial and that he did not have the slightest relationship to Louis.

The skeletons soon cleared the village. They poured out of the houses then formed a neat formation in front of Xiu. Once again, the skeleton mage stood in front of all the skeletons and said to Xiu, [Lord Commander, please lead us to the Chaos Continent.]

Except for the skeleton mage, they have no other sources of information. They do not know how to clear this level of the Tower of God. Xiu's group looked at each other, but from the bottom of their hearts they believe that this is the Tower of God's trial. Even though the situation seems very real, Du Ze has not forgotten that they are now inside the Tower of God – it was able to remake the demon god arena from the first era, therefore it can also be able to recreate a simulation of the scourge of the undead from 600 years ago.

In the demon god arena they needed to fight the demon gods. This time the tower did not make them fight the undead but instead made them lead a group of undead to become the Undead Scourge?

Du Ze glanced at the silent village then looked at the skeleton army. If not for the sudden increase in the number of the undead, it looked as though nothing has happened. He felt the absurdity of their situation keenly; during the time of the Undead Scourge, they were on the side of the undead, playing the part of the invaders.

Du Ze looked over to Xiu. Xiu must have clearly understood what was happening but his face gave away no hint of his thoughts. When Xiu saw Du Ze looking at him, Xiu grasped some silly, cute person by the back of his neck, and said soothingly: "Let's take a break here first."

The group temporarily settled down to rest in the village but the Tower of God was not so kind as to let Xiu relax and recover from his wounds. The next day, Du Ze was awakened by the sound of weapons clanging. When he walked outside he saw that there was fighting all over the village as the skeletons were brawling with a group of militia wearing very simple equipment.

Someone embraced Du Ze from the back. He turned his head to look at Xiu behind him and asked: "What happened?"

"Not far from here is a small town. The people who escaped from this town brought the news to them. They assembled a force of over 100 people to attack the undead," said Xiu casually.
