Chapter 1644 – 1644. God’S Atlantis
“We have overcome the ninth disaster.”
“The tenth disaster begins.”
As soon as the locust plague ended, a new disaster began.
‘I’m even looking forward to what kind of fucked-up disaster it’ll be this time.’
I prepared to use black magic at any moment and waited for the disaster.
But the surroundings were quiet.
‘Could the tenth disaster be something like a disease? Sweet!’
I grinned and ordered the undead to advance.
The undead locust unit took off like a rocket. A thousand of them simultaneously shot forward and ran.
“Magnificent. The charging speed is amazing, I like it. But damn it. Who told you to run off! Come back and walk slowly!!”
The locusts returned. These guys didn’t understand my command to walk slowly. They just ran around.
‘My control over the locusts is perfect. They just don’t know how to walk slowly. It’s ridiculous.’
They seem to be trying to control their strength to walk slowly, but they just end up running around everywhere, making it even more chaotic.
“Ugh. This won’t do. Undead, carry the locusts.”
Ggrrrroooaaarrr….
A somewhat dissatisfied reaction came back. Of course, the undead couldn’t refuse my orders.
-You son of a bitch!!
Sitting on the palanquin, I straightened my back.
‘I just heard a voice.’
I looked around. The undead holding locusts in their hands were making ggrrr sounds.
“Who was the bastard who just cursed?”
The walking dead stopped and looked at me. I glared at the undead with sharp eyes.
“I asked who called me a son of a bitch. Come out and confess right now. I’ll forgive you once.”
…….
The undead were silent. I exerted my control. The control of the No Life King (SS) and Pharaoh (SS) covered the undead.
‘For a moment, I thought my control had loosened and a spirit had possessed an undead’s body and was talking… but it doesn’t seem like that either. Could it be that I really misheard?’
-You fucker!
“I definitely heard it this time!”
I quickly turned my head to the left. This time, I clearly remembered the location where the voice came from. It was a skeleton mage with a cracked skull.
“This bastard… you’re the one who threw a fireball at me earlier, right?”
Clack clack clack.
The skeleton mage shook its head as if to say it wasn’t him.
“I clearly heard you cursing at me. It seems you have feelings for me… I’ll make you realize the difference in our positions.”
I gathered mana. I would turn this guy into dust with my powerful magic. The skeleton mage even waved its hands, asserting its innocence.
-Die!
-I curse you!
-Heavenly Demon! Why were you born!
-God! Please kill that bastard! If you kill that bastard, I will give you everything.
Voices cursing me came from all directions.
I, who was about to kill the skeleton mage, stopped abruptly and looked around. The voices were coming from the undead.
My head went cold.
From the beginning, it was impossible for the undead to curse me. These guys can’t even talk, and their intelligence isn’t that high. The intermediate skeleton mage is more intelligent than other undead, but the only magic it can use is a fireball. Of course, it can’t talk either.
‘Something other than the undead spoke.’
What is speaking?
Souls.
I had put souls inside the undead’s bodies. I didn’t possess them, but rather bound the souls to the undead’s bodies. There would be a time to use them someday. It’s more like storage.
‘Those souls are cursing me.’
After thinking for a bit, I figured out the cause.
‘This is the tenth disaster. A disaster that stimulates souls? It’s useless. All the souls here are under my control.’
As long as I have the unique trait No Life King (SS), my control will never disappear. The souls can never harm me.
“It’s nothing special. Move forward.”
The undead army moved.
-Kyyyyaaaaaaaah!
-Die! Please die!
-May your children die in agony!
-May your woman die of disease!
-You raped my wife!
-God! Throw that bastard into the deepest part of hell and give him pain for a thousand, no, ten thousand years!
-This is hell. We’re waiting for you to fall in hell.
The souls shouted loudly.
I sat on the chair and frowned.
“It’s noisy. Can’t you be quiet? If you’re going to curse me, curse me quietly. Well, no matter how much you curse me, I won’t die. And I’ve already been to hell once. Hell is nothing special.”
-Kyyyyaaaaaaaah!
The souls screamed in unison, as if they were enraged by my words.
I chuckled. The souls getting annoyed made me feel good.
That’s when it happened.
Something hazy passed in front of my eyes.
A wraith.
‘Did the soul I trapped inside the undead’s body escape? Impossible! All they can do is talk! And that’s only possible because of this special situation!’
More and more wraiths were floating around me. I realized where they were coming from. The ceiling. Wraiths were appearing from the ceiling and floating around me. The number was increasing. It quickly exceeded 100, then 1,000.
‘These guys…’
If you look closely at the wraiths, you can see glimpses of their past lives.
‘They seem strangely familiar… they’re the guys who died by my hand once.’
I don’t remember them in detail.
-I didn’t do anything to you!
“You must have bothered me by not doing anything.”
-Mister! Why did you kill me? What did I do wrong?
“Judging by your voice, you’re a male. Why should I let a male live?”
-I begged you to save only my children…!
“To be honest, I don’t remember when I killed you. Well, maybe my subordinates killed you.”
-You are a being that shouldn’t live!
-Die for the sake of this world.
I said to them in a low voice.
“I’m sorry.”
The wraiths floating around me stopped abruptly. For some reason, the undead who were walking forward also turned their heads and looked at me.
I reached out to a wraith nearby. The agitated wraith was easily caught in my grasp.
“Did you believe that, you idiots? Hahahaha!”
The undead turned their heads back and walked forward.
The wraiths began to rage.
-You bastard, I’ll tear you apart!!!
-How dare you mock us?!
-You will definitely fall into hell! That day! That day will come!
“Shut up, you vermin. If you’re dead, you should stay quietly in the afterlife. Why are you appearing in droves in front of me? No, come to think of it, it might be a good thing.”
I got up from the chair.
The wraiths screamed. Their eerie energy spread in all directions. The eerie energy turned into curses and flew towards me.
It’s useless. Curses don’t work on me, who is wearing Tutankhamun’s golden mask.
“Hehehe! Can’t you guys do anything even after death? Useless morons! Hehehe.”
-Kyyyyaaaaaaaah!
The wraiths screamed. Of course, it had no impact on me.
“I’ll give you a purpose! I’ll use your souls. A necromancer can use souls in many ways. Hehehe. It feels like I’m hitting the jackpot.”
I spread mana.
The black magic mana was cold, sticky, and dark.
The black magic mana, spread on a large scale, grabbed the wraiths. The wraiths tried to escape, but they couldn’t get out of this space.
The captured wraiths were immediately stuffed into the undead’s bodies. The undead’s bodies were the wraiths’ prisons.
‘Is it about 20,000? I’ve made a good profit! Hahaha!’
I laughed.
No matter how many wraiths there are, I can control them all now.
“You guys seem to want me to reflect and feel guilty… but a man should be consistent. Got it?”
“You have overcome the tenth disaster.”
“You have overcome all ten disasters.”
“All stats increase by 3.”
“All stats increase by 3 even though I didn’t suffer much? Sweet.”
I grinned and opened the door to the final 5th floor.
5th floor.
I was nervous that there might be a boss monster.
Fortunately, there was no boss monster. The 5th floor was a room for rewards.
The 5th floor was a large cavern, and in the center was an altar. The reward I wanted was in the center of the altar.
One was an old book that looked like the Book of the Dead 2.
The other was a wooden staff.
“Wait here.”
I parked the undead below the altar and rushed towards the altar. Except for when I’m banging a woman, the most enjoyable time is when I get my hands on treasure like this.
I climbed the steps of the altar in one go and first reached for the Book of the Dead 2.
“You have acquired the Book of the Dead.”
“Merge it with your existing Book of the Dead.”
I took out the Book of the Dead from my inventory. The Book of the Dead glowed faintly and merged into one.
“Book of the Dead (2/3)
Control over the undead is strengthened.
You can learn how to create high-grade and lower undead.
The stats of the undead you control increase by 7%.
You can use the Blessing of the Dead.
Mana increases by 15.
Rank: S”
“As expected! I can now create high-grade and lower undead!”
I quickly scanned the Book of the Dead. The method was the same as when creating intermediate undead. Use three intermediate undead as materials to create a high-grade undead.
‘The Blessing of the Dead is a buff skill that I give to the undead.’
I need to test how good the skill is, but… I like it for now.
‘There’s one more reward to check!’
“Moses’ Staff
Once a month, it randomly causes one of the ten disasters.
Once a week, you can part the waters.
Rank: S”
‘This is also S rank! Do the ten disasters refer to the ones I experienced while coming here? If it’s that level of disaster… well, it’ll be helpful.’
It was a bit disappointing for something with an S rank. Still, it will be helpful to have it. I took Moses’ Staff.
‘Now I just need to get the third Book of the Dead!’
