Chapter 375: The Ghost Awakens
“Impossible!”
“These altars have always existed in the ghost lair, how could there be a problem!”
The ghost King absolutely did not believe Flanders’s words. It had a deep connection with the spirit altar.
Its connection to the ghost altar came from the depths of its soul. Even though it was now under Flanders’s control, it still firmly denied Flanders’s words.
Rattle!
Upon hearing the scarecrow’s strange laughter, fear rose in the ghost king’s heart.
Flanders did not want to say anything more to the ghost king. Facts spoke louder than words.
The ghost altar was square in shape. Its length and width were around two meters. The four corners of the altar were burning with faint blue flames.
Flanders jumped onto the ghost altar. He saw that a mysterious magic pattern was carved on the stone surface of the altar platform.
“The function of these magic patterns is to convert energy from the unknown space into the power of the undead.”
The ghost King usually sat on these magic patterns to absorb the aura of death. This was also an important reason why the ghost king quickly became stronger.
It was afraid that the scarecrow would do something irrational, so it quickly stood up to explain the function of the ghost altar.
Flanders looked around the magic array pattern. The ghost altar was now creating ghost soldiers and undead soldiers.
Just now, Flanders had once again eliminated the ghost soldiers, and the self-protection mechanism of the ghost altar was triggered.
Flanders could not sense the aura of death, so he reached out his hand and touched the magic array pattern.
The ghost King felt that the scarecrow was unfathomable, and it did not know much about this kind of magic array pattern. The scarecrow’s palm emitted a black light. The black light and the magic array pattern perfectly fused together.
The ghost king was stunned. It really did not expect the scarecrow to know about this kind of magic array pattern. It had a bad feeling in its heart. It felt that the ghost altar was about to leave it.
It wanted to resist, but its soul core did not provide it with any power. The ghost king felt that it did not even have the power to resist.
Flanders placed both of his hands on the magic array pattern. The magic power was quickly extracted, and the power of the magic array pattern was absorbed by Flanders.
Originally, Flanders could not do anything about these magic array patterns, but he was afraid of the Demon of Fear system.
With the system, all of this was not a problem. The Demon of Fear system provided the analysis function of the magic array.
After the magic array pattern was analyzed, Flanders could absorb the power of the array pattern.
The ghost king closed its eyes in pain. The blue flames on the four corners of the ghost altar became extremely weak.
It could feel the pain of the spirit altar. The ghost altar could no longer produce ghost soldiers. The ghost altar had already cracked. The ghost king clenched its fists tightly. It was fighting against the Black Scarecrow in its soul core.
The ghost altar sent out a message for help. In reality, the ghost king was like a child of the ghost altar.
How could it watch its mother disappear? Only now did it realize that there was nothing it could do. In its heart, it could not even muster the will to resist.
No matter how much the ghost king struggled, Flanders had been absorbing the ghost altar.
Soon, the energy of the magic array pattern was absorbed by Flanders. It was as if Flanders could see the dawn of S rank.
Flanders was currently in a strange state. He was between rank and the rank above, but there was still quite a distance between him and an S rank.
His strength had also increased infinitely. Currently, five or six ordinary rank mages were not a match for Flanders.
Even an ordinary S rank mage might not be a match for Flanders. Flanders still had a lot of room for growth.
In theory, Flanders could advance to S rank, but without a miracle, Flanders would most likely be stuck at rank for the rest of his life.
The magic array patterns on the ghost altar disappeared, and all the ghosts in the entire ghost cave entered a sluggish state.
The ghost king and the other three kings also entered a sluggish state.
All the ghosts’ bodies emitted black halos, and the halos gradually dissipated.
The ghosts in the ghost lair opened their eyes one after another, and they regained their clarity.
A large number of memories flooded their minds, and at this moment, all the ghosts had awakened.
They thought of the past, of the ancient empire, of the abyssal magic region, and of who they were!
The ghost king was the most powerful, and it was also recovering its memories. The resistance it faced was the greatest.
At the critical moment, Flanders supported the ghost king, and dozens of Black Scarecrows were inserted into the ghost king’s Island.
Powerful spiritual power poured into the ghost king’s soul core.
With the support, the ghost king broke through the black seal in an instant.
The ghost king stood motionlessly on the spot, its body trembling slightly. After about fifteen minutes, it opened its eyes.
“The Salko Temple must die!” the ghost king roared. It remembered everything. It was originally the imperial marshal of the ancient empire.
It led the warriors of the empire to fight against the abyssal creatures. In the end, it paid a huge sacrifice and finally expelled the abyssal creatures into the abyss.
The imperial mages who followed the army sealed the entrance to the abyss. The imperial marshal personally guarded the sealing formation.
The disaster of the abyss had brought great damage to the empire. As the imperial marshal, the ghost king was duty-bound to guard the grand sealing formation.
Later, the ancient empire was invaded by the barbarians. The soldiers guarding the ghost lair were all drawn to the front line of the war to defend against the Barbarians.
In the end, only the old imperial marshal was left. He was still guarding the grand sealing formation.
Later, the empire was destroyed by the Barbarians. The imperial marshal was also getting old. An old warrior had a hunched figure. He could not even pick up a weapon.
No matter how weak his body was, he did not take off his armor. He carried out his mission faithfully until he died under the sealing formation.
His body had disappeared, but the dark energy that seeped through the sealing formation had already contaminated his body.
His soul gradually turned into a dark spirit. Even if he became a spirit, he was still carrying out his mission.
It was not until ten years later that a group of mysterious humans arrived at the ghost lair. They easily found the sealing array.
The ghost king found them and discovered that there was an acquaintance among this group of mysterious people.
This acquaintance was the great elder of the Salko Temple. The ghost king was extremely shocked. How did the Salko Temple come to the ghost lair?
At the same time, the first elder of the Salko Temple also discovered the ghost king. The first elder was extremely surprised.
If a good soul turned into a ghost, there was a high chance that it would advance to an rank.
The temple needed rank strange creatures. For this goal, there was nothing that could not be sacrificed.
Taking advantage of the Salko Temple’s first elder’s surprise, the ghost king ambushed him.
“Good timing! I was just waiting for you to show up!”
