Safeguarded the Borders for a Hundred Years, My Clan Was Burnt at the Stake - Chapter 9

Digging a large hole in the earth was an easy task for the skeleton soldiers.

They could easily complete the excavation even without using any tools. With such a large number of tools, they were able to work at an even quicker pace.

Everything was completed very quickly. More than 1,800 people from the city had gathered at the edge of the blood pool.

They were like poultry queuing up waiting to be mounted on the hanger for their blood to be let out.

Although some of them wanted to escape, the place was filled with zombies. They could only walk a few meters before getting pushed back by the zombies on the side.

After a few hours, everything was completed. The corpses by the side of the pit had already piled up like a hill.

Seeing this scene downstairs, Willis knew that the time had come for him to lose his son.

Under Landel’s lead, Yamane came to the blood pool. The two Undead Evil Lords glanced at him.

This was their future partner, of course, they had to get to know each other!

After everything was ready, Hall walked out of the castle.

He came in front of Yamane, pointed his wand at the blood pool, and said, “Go in!”

“You can stop when the blood reaches your neck!”

Seeing the blood pool surging in front of him, Yamane was very hesitant.

He looked up at his father and sister-in-law, who were looking around with tears in their eyes, and resolutely stepped forward.

All the conditions have been met. Hall then raised the magical scepter in his hand, which had turned pitch-black, and cast a spell on the blood pool.

The blood quickly started surging even more violently and flowed into Yamane’s body.

In about fifteen minutes, he had turned into a Dark Evil Spirit. He still had a human body and his skin became very seductive and white.

Feeling the endless power in his body, he surrounded himself with black fog and instantly disappeared from everyone’s sight.

He then instantly appeared in front of Hall and knelt on the ground.

“Supreme Lord, from today onwards, I, Yamane, will be at your disposal!”

After taking a closer look at Yamane, he discovered that the sacrifice this time had triggered a mutation, directly turning Yamane into a Dark Evil Spirit.

This was a dark creature that was one level higher than the Undead Evil Lords and was as powerful as Landel.

Landel was powerful because he used to be a very powerful Holy Knight. Meanwhile, Yamane had been transformed with blood, and so it was very rare for Yamane to be so powerful.

Seeing Yamane kneeling in front of him, Hall gave him his first mission. “From today onwards, you will manage the humans together with Willis.”

“You will also be responsible for the security of this town!”

“Yes, my Lord.” After saying that, he turned into a black fog and disappeared before Hall’s eyes. He then went to busy himself with the construction and supervision of the residential area for the humans.

The castle of Mehionnes was located in the north of the city. The entire town was controlled by the city. The north and south were completely separated. Everyone in the city had rushed to the south of the city.

They were still living the same life as before. They were farming the land and doing the work. The only difference was that they were now under the management of the Supreme Lord, Hall.

In a large house in the southern human residential area, Yamane was busy planning the future of the human residences in the city.

Willis knocked on the door and walked in. He realized that Yamane was no longer his son!

He had tested him countless times and finally came to a conclusion. The person in front of him was no longer his son, but a dark creature with his son’s memories!

“Lord Yamane, the matter has been settled!”

“Is there anything else?”

Yamane raised his hand and pointed at his brother Jim, who was tied up very tightly.

“Take him back and discipline him well. If he comes to harass me again, I won’t let him off so easily!”

After seeing at his second son, who could not even move after being beaten, Willis said to the stranger, who used to be his eldest son, “Thank you for showing mercy, Lord Yamane!”

“I’ll take this unfilial son back and teach him a lesson!”

After saying that, he carried Jim on his shoulder and trotted out of the big house.

When he returned home, Willis immediately untied the rope on Jim’s body.

“What were you planning on doing in the first place?”

“He’s no longer your brother Yamane!” Willis roared at Jim who was lying on the ground.

Hearing this, Jim immediately cried out in grief.

“Why! Why did this happen?!”

Hearing Jim’s words, Willis could not help but shed tears.

The two hugged each other and wailed at each other, using their tears to berate the injustice of this world.

Hall, who was very free, used the remaining blood in the blood pool to summon a few undead liches.

He then assigned these liches to his most loyal subordinates to help them complete their work.

As the days passed, the news of the fall of Mehionnes quickly spread.

This news was not leaked from the city itself but had been found out because of the black clouds in the sky above Mehionnes which never dispersed.

This scene was just like the sky of the Dark Eternal Domain in the north. It was forever shrouded in darkness, never seeing the light of day.

The Castellan of Mediarudy, who lived to the west of the city, soon received news about their neighboring city.

He had already sent several investigation teams to approach Mehionnes, but these people had no way to enter the city.

This was because the city was surrounded by undead creatures which formed a big circle around the city.

On the other hand, the Fergus Empire only realized that something was amiss after their thousand-man army had disappeared.

The Imperial Investigation Team sent by the Imperial Military Secretary soon arrived in the territory of the Earl of Langford to investigate. However, they discovered that the mountains in the east were shrouded in darkness.

The sky and the sun were all covered. The entire area had become a paradise for the undead.

As they did not know what had happened, they quickly returned to Bader City to report the situation to the Imperial Military Secretary.

As there were too many uncertainties, the Imperial Military Secretary immediately dispatched 10,000 imperial soldiers to the territory of the Earl of Langford to construct a defensive fortress.

But as it involved many people and a lot of movement, it was difficult for Hall to not notice anything.

Thus, he immediately dispatched the Dark Knight Landel and brought 10,000 undead soldiers to the mountains to set up camp.

After setting up camp, Landel then left alone. Taking advantage of the darkness, he brought the two liches and came to the vicinity of the human’s fortress to investigate.

The night provided a huge advantage for them. Even after the three of them had finished counting the number of people in the human camp, they were not discovered.

Armed with information regarding the number of troops, equipment, and generals, Landel returned to Mehionnes and told Supreme Lord Hall everything..
