Chapter 129 A glimmer of hope!
The six-sided barrier has been completed, like an invisible barrier, successfully covering a vast area including the outer city under its protection.

Under the gloomy sky, countless low-level undead surged like a tide, baring their fangs and claws, roaring one after another, and attacking the barrier in an attempt to erode this line of defense.

However, this seemingly fragile blue light curtain barrier was as solid as a rock, firmly resisting the crazy attacks of the undead. Every collision was like a huge wave hitting the reef, but without splashing a ripple.

However, before Pantalone took action, more than tens of thousands to hundreds of thousands of undead had already rushed into the outer city, and there were even a large number of rotten corpses that were thrown in by brute force from dozens of kilometers away by the mountain corpses.

Not to mention the outside of the city, the undead crisis in the outer city area has not been resolved yet...

The Lord of the Underworld spread his wings in the sky. Under the shadow of his body was an army of skeletons with white bones. Seeing that the sudden six-sided barrier blocked his army, they immediately became furious.

"Howl~~~~~~~~~~!!!"

There was another roar like a death knell, and the main head among the three heads of the Lord of the Underworld looked up, and the terrifying energy in his mouth gathered again...

"boom!!!"

Unfortunately, this attack did not shatter the barrier covering the entire city as it had expected. After the loud bang, the hexagonal texture on the barrier continued to flow slowly, like the brightest star in the sky, unshakable by any wind or waves.

The mountain corpse in the distance also noticed the situation here. It put down the rotten corpse it was about to throw, and its scarlet eyes pierced through the fog of the battlefield and looked directly in the direction of the ancient capital.

“BOOM!!!!!”

With one kick, a deep footprint appeared on the ground, and some corpses that didn't have time to dodge were also affected. The mountain corpse seemed to move slowly, but each step reached an astonishing distance of hundreds of meters. Its speed formed a sharp contrast with its huge body, which was enough to make people dumbfounded...

At the same time, with the fall of the Fountain of Rage, the death energy accumulated by Heshayuan increased.

The commander of the ghost army - the devil-horned ghost lord!
The commander of the ghost army - Queen Jiuyou!

The Red Skull Demon Lord, the Agate Corpse King, the Ghost King, the White Corpse King, and the other Eight Directions Dead Kings, whose strength had all reached the level of Grand Monarch, also began to wake up one after another.

After the king wakes up, he needs their sacrifices!!!

……

……

Inside the outer city.

After releasing the six-sided barrier, Pantalone slowly stood up, looked into the distance, and exhaled heavily.

The barrier released this time is different from the one on Xiayu Island. The scope of the ancient capital city is many times larger than that of Xiayu Island, and its defense is no weaker than the protective barrier released by the Core of the Earth. The consumption is also not small for Pantalone.

However, the most important thing is the continuous supply of energy...

"The attacks of these undead will speed up the consumption of my magic power, especially the monarch-level undead kings. If I let them continue to make trouble, this barrier may not be able to hold out until the disaster is over."

"Let's go. Leave the undead in the outer city to the high-level mage group and the ancient capital's royal guard mages! Let's go meet the Eight-Directions Dead King!" Pantalone said, pushing his glasses.

With the development over the years, the power of the Southern Bank has naturally recruited free mages who were otherwise idle. A dozen high-level mage groups have been formed, and they have even used generous rewards to absorb three super-level mages...

The nine grandparents from Xiayu and the two elders from the Southern Bank, two of the three super-class mages who had been recruited, hurriedly followed after hearing Pantalone's order.

The high-level magician group of the Southern Bank, which had been arranged in advance by Pantalone, also began to act at this time.

...In the inner city, in the bell tower.

Han Ji, Zhu Meng and other high-ranking officials in the ancient capital were shocked by the giant barrier that covered the entire city, and were still somewhat confused.

A handsome brown-haired man has walked in, led by the Royal Guard Mage Commander Lu Huan.

"Countless undead are attacking the city, are you guys just here to enjoy the scenery?!" Tartaglia said.

"Who are you? What do you mean by saying this?!" Commander Lu Xu cursed upon hearing this.

The other senior executives present also frowned, and even Lu Huan, who brought Tartaglia in, was no exception.

Originally, the outer city was breached, and they retreated back to defend the inner city, hoping to gain a glimmer of hope and protect more people to survive. However, they were scolded by countless people for not doing anything, which was already very frustrating.

If they could, they would rather die in battle than wait here for the undead to attack...

They were already furious, and now someone was getting close to them and firing at them, saying that they were here to enjoy the scenery?
"Haha!!! You're not enjoying the scenery, are you fighting the undead in the clock tower?" Tartaglia laughed.

"you…!!"

After hearing this, everyone was filled with anger.

At this time, Han Ji, the supreme commander, interrupted and said, "Sir, you are not here just to make sarcastic remarks, are you?"

"The ancient king is about to awaken... You are not really pinning your hopes on the safety barrier of this inner city, are you? Or, do you think that finding Saran can stop everything that has happened now?" asked Tartaglia.

"Besides this, is there any other way? Only in this way can the ancient city have a glimmer of hope." Zhu Meng couldn't help but spoke.

"What if there is one more forbidden spell caster and a dozen super-class mages helping to defend the city, and at the same time there is a way to find the ancient king's tomb, and there is a chance that the ancient king will withdraw his troops?" Tartaglia looked at everyone and asked.

"What did you say?"

Everyone was shocked!!
Forbidden spell, and method to find the ancient royal tomb?
Could it be that the barrier that just enveloped the entire ancient capital was the work of that forbidden spell?

"The president of our Southern Bank should have led his men outside the city to fight against the undead. Are you, the senior officials of the ancient capital, still standing here to watch the show?"

"Are you telling the truth?" Han Ji asked with a trembling voice.

The name of the Southern Bank had already been mentioned, and Dadalia had no intention of keeping the secret any longer. He immediately revealed the only hope for the ancient capital - the ancient royal tomb was in Shayuan, and the people of Weiju Village could enter Shayuan alive.

Otherwise, if we sit here and wait for the ancient king to revive, even with Pantalone's help, the ancient capital will surely perish.

With the existence of the Demonic Abyss, the countless sea of ​​undead is no joke. Even an elephant cannot stop a large number of ants. Even a strong one like Azure Dragon will be locked to the ground by countless slave warriors...

"Okay, let's do as you say, gather the people in the dangerous village, and give it a fight." Han Ji responded.

If you can see a glimmer of hope in the most desperate moment, then everything is still worth looking forward to and worth a try. It is always better than waiting to die here helplessly.

Moreover, even the Southern Bank, which is not part of the ancient capital, has joined in. Why should they remain indifferent?
However, what is shocking is that the Southern Bank, as a force, actually has a forbidden spell and more than a dozen super-class mages. It seems that the situation in the country is about to change...
