…
Some time later, late at night.
A few floating clouds blocked the moonlight in the sky, making the already dim night sky even darker and lonelier.
It is still that sparsely populated old city located in a remote area in the north.
A small group of undead cultists in black robes were leading a young and beautiful bride in a wedding dress, walking through the dilapidated streets of the old town towards the castle in the center of the old town.
This rock castle made of stones looks like it was built centuries ago and is covered with traces of time.
It was a dark and windy night outside the castle, and candlelight flickered inside the castle. It was so quiet around that there was no sound at all, and the entire old city was filled with a strange and cold atmosphere.
"Come in, Priest Samuel has been waiting for a long time."
Several undead cultists escorted the bride to the castle entrance, pushed open the door, and motioned for her to go in. After they finished speaking, they turned their backs and stood guard at the castle entrance like statues, blocking the bride's retreat.
This beautiful bride is naturally the companion of the dark witch Judy, the female thief Amanda.
She still hasn't figured out what method Judy used to actually get into the Undead Sect and become the full moon bride who will be presented to the Lord of the Undead tonight.
When talking about the full moon bride, we have to talk about the full moon festival.
This is a sacrifice activity that takes place every year when the moon is at its fullest, offering a pure virgin and a large amount of tribute to the Lord of the Dead. The sacrifice is presided over by the local chief priest, and almost all believers in the area will participate. The scale of the sacrifice is quite grand, and this year Amanda happens to be the sacrifice to the Lord of the Dead.
"My Lord, I must be crazy to agree to Judy's crazy request."
Amanda rolled her eyes in her heart. There was nothing she could do. What she was about to do was so exciting that it made her hair stand on end just thinking about it.
This castle, no, to be exact, the entire old town, is a large branch of the Undead Cult.
Going deep into the core area of the branch alone, even a female thief like Amanda, who has been wandering in dangerous areas for years, couldn't help but take a few long breaths to calm her somewhat nervous heart.
Just kidding, it is well known that the members of this cult of the dead are all crazy people. They believe in death and pursue death. The living and pagans often suffer the most miserable torture in their hands.
In the headquarters of this branch, in addition to a large number of brainwashed undead cultists, the chief priest Samuel is actually a powerful saint who is no less powerful than the chief priest Solo!
If these are not scary enough, then in this lair, there is also a communication array controlled by High Priest Samuel. The other end of the array is directly connected to the terrifying evil god, the Lord of the Undead!
"My Lord is above, my Lord is with me..."
Amanda prayed silently, supporting herself with firm faith, while she began to walk deeper into the castle step by step.
Compared to the last time when he cooperated with Judy to assassinate a count, the danger of going deep into this lair alone and causing some damage is definitely no less than running into the palace and punching the emperor of the empire in the nose.
