Catastrophic necromancer

Chapter 3111: Blood Rat Realm, The Ancient Battle

Lin Moyu rushed to the military camp at top speed.

This was a camp that had almost turned to ruins, clearly having experienced fierce battles, with bloodstains everywhere.

In the secret realm, traces of battle would be devoured and erased, but in the military camp, these traces still remained.

There was a special force in the camp that allowed the battle traces to be preserved.

Now the camp was empty, with no Divine Rune Army members or Bloody Legion monsters.

Lin Moyu entered the camp, looking at the shattered military flag on the ground. From the remaining symbols, he could identify that this was indeed a camp belonging to the Divine Rune Army.

On the ground in the camp were scattered fragments, pieces of armor.

Like the military flag, these fragments emitted an aura of ancient times.

Both items were made of extraordinary materials, having endured countless years without decay.

Just like the armor Lin Moyu wore, which had withstood the erosion of time and remained powerful.

Lin Moyu looked at the traces left on the armor fragments, searching for what happened in the past.

“Back then, the Bloody Legion invaded the camp, the Divine Rune Army here was defeated, the entire army perished.”

“With a military camp established, this Divine Rune Army unit must not have been small, certainly exceeding ten thousand people, and its leader should have been above a ten thousand man commander.”

“Above a ten thousand man commander, very likely sixth or seventh-level Dao Venerable.”

“This also means that the monster that killed him was likely also seventh-level Dao Venerable.”

“That monster probably died in the end, a seventh-level Dao Venerable couldn’t live that long, but its battle intent and obsessions might still remain, here in this secret realm.”

Lin Moyu pondered as he went deeper into the camp.

Suddenly, he saw a stele. The moment he saw it, Lin Moyu felt a slight shock in his heart.

This stele was neither metal nor iron, neither stone nor jade, but made of a special material.

This special material was almost identical to the armor he was wearing.

Not completely identical, but very similar.

After all, armor also had differences in quality. The armor worn by soldiers and officers differed in quality.

This stele before him was indeed made from armor material, but the quality was clearly better than what he was wearing.

This also indicated that the officer who wore this armor must have had a higher rank than himself.

Lin Moyu guessed this must be the leader of this army unit, who after the great battle, turned his own armor into this stele.

But strangely, there wasn’t a single word on the stele.

Lin Moyu carefully looked around and finally saw a small depression on the side.

This depression was only fist-sized, very inconspicuous.

Looking at the size of the depression, Lin Moyu took out his Divine Rune Army seal and placed it in the depression.

Instantly, the stele lit up.

Many runes appeared in the camp, forming a formation.

The formation wasn’t advanced, very simple, just for recording some information.

Scene after scene appeared in the formation, turning the entire camp into a holographic projection field.

Lin Moyu flew up, looking down from above for a clearer view.

In the scenes, a great battle was erupting.

Countless Bloody Legion monsters surged from all directions, flooding into the camp.

The Divine Rune Army members in the camp rose up in resistance, engaging in battle with the Bloody Legion monsters.

Unfortunately, the numerical difference was too great, and the Divine Rune Army struggled to defend.

However, there were formations in the camp and a powerful officer. Although difficult, they could hold on temporarily.

At this time, a huge monster with four wings descended from the sky.

This monster was powerful, the Divine Rune Army couldn’t resist. The officer personally wielded his battle blade to fight.

The officer and the four-winged monster fought fiercely. It was an extremely intense battle, just the aftershocks killing countless ordinary monsters.

Similarly, without the officer, the Divine Rune Army’s battle formation power greatly decreased, casualties increasing.

After a fierce battle, the officer finally managed to defeat that four-winged monster, killing it.

But by this time, the camp’s defenses had been completely breached, with very few Divine Rune Army survivors.

Even the officer himself was severely injured.

However, with his strength, if he wanted to leave, no one could stop him.

But he didn’t choose to leave. He erupted with all his power, sacrificing himself to kill all the Bloody Legion monsters, ending this battle.

Finally, he turned his armor into this great stele before them.

Lin Moyu watched the entire process, understanding what happened then.

That fierce battle, in his eyes, wasn’t much.

But that officer’s actions still made him feel a bit of admiration.

Cultivators cherish life and fear death. Those who can live generally don’t want to die.

Especially beings that could potentially live for many years, as long as there’s a chance, wouldn’t be willing to die.

But he still chose death, not sparing his life to kill these Bloody Legion monsters.

The spirit of a soldier was fully displayed in the final moment.

“This should have been a general, right?”

In the projection just now, Lin Moyu saw that on the collar of that general’s armor was carved the character for “general”, and beside it, the character for “nine”.

“General” should represent his rank as a general, while “nine” should represent his grade.

The formation’s light gradually dimmed. In the final moment, some text was projected in the air:

“This general led the army, surrounded by enemies.”

“Although I slew the four-winged rat general, all my subordinates died in battle. This general has no face to live alone.”

“But in this battle, this general did not lose. Of the hundred thousand Blood Rat monsters here, not one could survive.”

“Though this general’s body dies and dao perishes, I can sleep with my subordinates, with a hundred thousand Blood Rat monsters as burial objects. It is a joyous matter.”

“After death, the Divine Rune Army’s might does not extinguish, transforming into heroic spirits, continuing the great battle!”

“If there are those who come after, I hope they can inherit the will of the Divine Rune Army, invade the Blood Rat Realm, thoroughly sweep it clean, destroy its dao and annihilate its realm!”

After the text appeared, the formation’s light completely faded, everything returning to calm.

Lin Moyu now finally knew the true name of these Bloody Legion monsters – Blood Rat monsters.

And the winged monsters were called rat generals.

The strength of rat generals could be distinguished by the number of wings.

Two-winged rat generals were the weakest, equivalent to sixth-level Dao Venerable.

Four-winged rat generals were seventh-level Dao Venerable.

This general didn’t leave his name. His rank was above ten thousand man commander, a ninth-grade general, with twenty thousand soldiers under him, and he himself had seventh-level Dao Venerable combat power.

Unfortunately, twenty thousand Divine Rune Army soldiers were surrounded here by a hundred thousand Blood Rat monsters, ultimately completely destroyed.

Although he killed the four-winged rat general, seeing all his subordinates die in battle, he didn’t choose to live alone, but perished together with the Blood Rat monsters.

Lin Moyu sighed lightly. A piece of ancient history had finally been unveiled.

The Origin Continent wasn’t simply invaded by Outer Gods, but also by this place called the Blood Rat Realm.

Invading the Blood Rat Realm, destroying its dao and annihilating its realm, was the grand wish left by this ninth-grade general. Unfortunately, very few could fulfill it.

Even Lin Moyu didn’t dare promise to fulfill this grand wish, only silently saying in his heart, “I’ll do my best.”

At this time, a blood light rose from afar. A crimson tide appeared on the ground, surging like fresh blood, rushing towards the camp.

As if history was repeating itself, a hundred thousand Blood Rat monsters were surging over in vast numbers.
