Catastrophic necromancer

**Chapter 1159: How It Resembles a Small World Dungeon**

A robe instantly appeared on the God King, who seemed somewhat embarrassed, having just regenerated his flesh and blood and overlooked this detail. Lin Moyu smiled humbly, “Senior, you overpraise me. I am merely doing my best.”

Li Yuanbai nodded, “Regarding the situation inside the manor, what was said earlier was only a part of it, but it is still not clear enough. Captain Tang, please explain it in detail again, without any omissions.”

Captain Tang, whose full name was Tang Zhen, was a third-tier God King. He was a captain in Fortress 6, commanding an army of ten thousand, holding significant power.

Tang Zhen was initially hesitant, considering whether it was appropriate to share certain information with Lin Moyu, who was not part of the military.

However, seeing Li Yuanbai’s expression, Tang Zhen understood and began to recount the events.

The appearance of the manor happened to be within his jurisdiction, and he was supposed to be the first to enter.

But the situation was special at the time, as an elder was patrolling nearby.

Thus, the elder sent someone in first, who brought back some basic information.

For instance, whether power would be suppressed, whether flying was possible, whether magical artifacts could be used, and whether the laws were restricted.

These basic pieces of information didn’t take much time to gather.

The person went in and returned safely.

Power was indeed suppressed to the fifth tier, and based on past experiences, the task was initially classified as light red, indicating a simple level of danger.

There was a delay in transmitting the information from discovery to reporting back.

After layers of reporting and summarizing, it took two days for Fortress One to emit the light.

During these two days, the elder also went in.

Opportunities were attractive to elders as well.

As for the power suppression, even if suppressed to the fifth tier of True God, the elder, being a God Sovereign, could still exert power far beyond the fifth tier of True God, so there was no fear.

Initially, everything was normal, but a day later, the elder suddenly lost contact.

At this point, someone returned, reporting that the elder was trapped inside, with their life or death unknown.

Thus, the danger level of the manor was quickly elevated to dark red.

Next was Tang Zhen, as the person in charge of the area, he did not fear and led a ten-man team into the manor.

“Actually, I was the third batch to enter.”

“The first batch went in just to gather basic information and form the task.”

“The second batch was Elder Wang, who took three True Gods with him. Only one True God returned, with Elder Wang and the other two True Gods’ fates unknown.”

“I led ten True God brothers in, and initially, everything was normal, but after walking a thousand kilometers, danger struck.”

“We couldn’t fly in the manor, so we had to walk. First, one brother got stuck in the grass, which was like a swamp.”

“We tried to pull him out but couldn’t; the grass swallowed him too quickly, and he was gone.” Tang Zhen’s eyes showed a hint of pain as he spoke.

He and his brothers were as close as family.

Seeing his brother die inside, he was naturally heartbroken.

After a pause, he continued, “After that brother died, everything seemed to return to normal. The place that swallowed him became just like ordinary grass.”

“At the 2000-kilometer mark, lightning suddenly struck the grass, turning our area into a sea of fire.”

“At the 3000-kilometer mark, the grass suddenly turned into sharp arrows…”

Tang Zhen recounted their team’s experiences bit by bit.

From his description, it seemed that every 1000 kilometers, a crisis would occur, causing casualties. The first time, only one person died.

The second time, two people died.

The third time, three people died.

This indicated that the closer they got to the manor, the more dangerous it became.

By the fourth time, danger struck again.

But this time, along with the danger, a passage appeared.

Tang Zhen immediately ordered his team to enter the passage.

Inside, they found themselves in an independent space.

At that time, including Tang Zhen, only five of them were left.

The space was like an independent chamber, with walls all around and no exit.

Tang Zhen attacked the walls, trying to create an opening, but to no avail.

Then, several giant heads appeared on the walls, burning with fierce flames, charging at them.

The flames were terrifying, as intense as the sea of fire at the 2000-kilometer mark, with astonishing temperatures that they couldn’t withstand.

They tried to dodge, but the chamber was too small, and someone was burned to death.

After one person died, an exit suddenly appeared in the chamber.

Without hesitation, Tang Zhen led the remaining members through the exit.

They entered a second chamber, where the flaming heads did not follow.

This chamber had no fire, but water arrows shot out from the walls.

One team member, reacting too slowly, was hit by a water arrow and died from the resulting body decay.

After his death, an exit appeared on the ceiling of the chamber.

By then, Tang Zhen and the others were terrified. Following Tang Zhen’s orders, they rushed to the exit.

The water arrows were too dense, and they used all their means and artifacts to barely make it through.

During this process, Tang Zhen, as the captain and the highest-ranking member, stayed behind to cover the retreat, allowing two team members to escape first.

Unfortunately, another member died in the process.

Tang Zhen was also hit by a water arrow in the waist, causing his lower body to decay, leaving only bones.

In the third chamber, a fierce wind blew, as sharp as knives, very terrifying.

But this time, an exit appeared simultaneously. Tang Zhen had no choice but to drag his half-body through the exit.

He was lucky that the exit was close, allowing him to escape safely.

If the exit had been farther, he might have died in the third chamber.

After passing through the exit, they entered another chamber.

This chamber had no danger, and in the center was a crystal.

When Tang Zhen picked up the crystal, another exit appeared in the chamber.

Entering the exit, they left the manor and returned to the battlefield.

The crystal Tang Zhen obtained was the size of a fist, crystal clear, but no results were obtained using detection techniques.

Lin Moyu pondered Tang Zhen’s account, finding the entire process filled with danger and strangeness.

His team was always in a passive state, and in the end, it was just luck.

Due to the power suppression, they had almost no resistance to the dangers they faced.

It was certain that the manor was extremely dangerous, but not unsolvable.

Otherwise, Tang Zhen wouldn’t have survived and brought out an unknown crystal.

“It feels like this manor is a dungeon from a small world, a test-type dungeon.”

“Passing the test grants rewards, failing means leaving your life inside.”

Li Yuanbai collected Tang Zhen’s words and transmitted the information back to the Human Emperor Network using a special item.

The Human Emperor Network had high-level human officials, think tanks, and researchers of various anomalies who would analyze the information, sparing him the trouble.

Lin Moyu then returned and recounted Tang Zhen’s words to Qian Huang.

Lin Moyu did not add his own analysis, as it might affect Qian Huang’s judgment.

No one could guarantee their judgment was correct, and Qian Huang might have a different perspective.
