Wilderness.

It is close to the southern countries, and it is also a gathering place for refugees, because there is a tower city nearby, and many refugees stay here.

But at this moment, this area has become a hell on earth, with tens of thousands of corpses in the wilderness. After the large-scale outbreak of the plague, many towns have set up fortresses near the road checkpoints to prevent a large number of refugees from approaching, and those who have already Cities ravaged by the plague saw a large number of people fleeing, which in turn led to more refugees. At present, the southern countries have blocked their borders, and many cities have also entered a state of alert, prohibiting foreigners from entering them. However, the means of spreading the plague is not limited to the floating population. A large number of corpses have led to the emergence of terrifying diseases, and the plague is the most terrifying of them.

Although there is no Black Death in this world, similar diseases still exist.

If the gods still possessed the status of gods, they would definitely not let this plague spread, but now that the gods have fallen into the mortal world and become saints, their means of organizing the plague have become much weaker.

The priest has been completely unable to stop the speed of the spread of the plague.

Counting all the temple priests in a large town, it looks like a dozen or so, and all the magic and memory recovery spells in one day can't save many people. Compared with the millions of people currently infected with the plague on the Material Plane, the power of the priest is simply negligible, and the gods do not have enough power to support the priest.

And as the plague spread, things got even worse.

Humans are the most abundant race on the Material Plane, and with the spread of the plague, especially if the famine still exists.

Many human corpses have become food for other species. The first to be infected is the goblin group. The goblins are active in the wilderness. They are like Xiaoqiang who can't kill and kill a large number of them every year. These creatures only have turf. to survive.

The infection of goblins accelerated the spread of the plague.

The gnolls and ogres, who used goblins as one of their food, were also quickly affected by the plague. Then the plague in the south began to spread in all directions, and the elves on the periphery soon began to suffer from the plague.

The second severely affected race was the orcs. With the plague of war in the western wilderness, the orcs were also infected. The savage civilization was not enough for the orcs to resist the spread of such a large-scale plague. Soon the priests of shamanism could not stop the plague. spread. The first to die was a large number of herdsmen. The strong orcs had strong resistance, and they did not fall to the plague soon. However, after the half-farming and half-animal husbandry was the civilization of the orcs, thousands of herdsmen died overnight after being infected by the epidemic. In just half a month, the survival of the orcs was extremely cruelly challenged. !

The cattle and sheep that died because of the disease were no longer edible, and the orcs' stockpile of food could not support the consumption of the tribe.

What's more serious is that because of the large number of deaths of livestock, it will be difficult for the orcs to recover in the next few years, which means that they must go to other races to plunder to meet the consumption of the race.

The spread of the plague shows no signs of abating, and the halflings in the Shire area soon became the target of victims. Even if this fertile land is sheltered by halflings, it cannot be exempted. In just a few days, Thousands of halflings died of the disease. The witches of the North have sealed off the whole territory, monitoring many towns and rivers, looking for the source of the disease infection.

The only place in the entire Material Plane that is less affected is Arendelle.

Perhaps because of the cold climate in the country of ice and snow, the scale of the outbreak in Arendelle was the smallest, and the casualties were even a little less than in the territory of Modo City.

Worse things happened.

The plague began to spread in Sauron's army, and when the navy of Nusha Island was infected, the power of the plague spread rapidly, so that Sauron had to isolate these people and place them on Viper Island.

The gods finally could not sit still.

Both the gods of the good camp and the gods of the evil camp temporarily stopped the confrontation and began to search for the source of the plague.

The struggle between the surface elves and the drow elves also temporarily stopped, simply because the plague had spread to the Underdark, and Rose, the spider god queen, had to start dealing with these terrible plagues.

Sauron also made a change.

He deepened his divine power into the fields of [Disease] and [Very Toxic]. The power of these two fields came from the plunder of the goddess of disease. Sauron gave the magic of 'removing the disease' as the core, which greatly strengthened the priest. ability to treat disease. At the same time, Modo City has also begun to increase the number of doctors and use drugs to treat these infected people.

The population of the roads began to decline rapidly, and more and more towns were deserted, even faster than the previous wars.

With the massive reduction of the population, the power of death has also become stronger, and even Sauron's divine power has begun to show a significant improvement, because he is also in charge of the power of killing. The breath of death has caused the undead to gradually increase, and the number of ghouls has become uncontrollable. At the same time, with the explosion of ghouls, a demon lord in the bottomless abyss has become more and more powerful.

His followers began to appear on the Material Plane and expanded at an astonishing rate.

These dark cultists are the 'ghoul church'. They can't bestow much power and wealth on others, but they have a special ability. As long as they join their church, they will not suffer casualties from ghouls.

This shift is beginning to affect the Abyss as well.

On the third floor of the bottomless abyss, the attack plan of the gnoll king-Yenogu was unexpectedly affected, because the soaring ghoul king seemed to be helped by some outside force and was gradually breaking free from the wolves The control of the king of men over him.

It seems that the undead monarchs are wooing this terrifying abyssal demon.

The Gnoll King's backyard caught fire and had to temporarily abandon his expansion into the Abyss and try to regain control of the Ghoul King.

And on this day!

A terrifying evil force has returned to the abyss.

Orcus is back!

The undead king of the bottomless abyss! Demon Lord of the undead! One of the three giants of the bottomless abyss!

The dreaded Orcus is back.

Orcus was one of the three giants of the abyss. He fell into a deep sleep during the period of the Arcane Empire. His sleep was an important reason for the indirect rise of the Succubus Queen. Because the demon giants of the older generation gradually fell silent, the rapid rise of the Succubus Queen came about. The King of Ghouls is his most important servant and the overseer of his huge army of undead. He once started a war with the Six Fingers that affected multiple planes of the abyss, but was finally forced to terminate due to the rise of the Arcane Empire.

at this time.

On the 421st floor of the bottomless abyss, the domain of the ghoul king [White Kingdom].

Countless underworld ghouls gathered together, and in the center of this country, there were huge halls of bones. The ghoul king - Dorison is in command of all ghouls, and unlike other ghouls, he is straight, not hunched all day like his kind, his eyes glowing pale green, wearing A luxurious robe and leather armor, wearing a crown of bones, and holding a vertebra-shaped staff called the Hungertooth Staff, with a skull on the top of the staff, a tribute to Orchis.

for a long time in the past.

There are a large number of gnolls in this realm, they are responsible for supervising the ghouls and driving them to work and fight.

And now all the gnolls have been turned into food for ghouls driven by endless hunger, which has been freed from the control of the gnoll king, Yenogu.

A black bone portal emerges.

With the terrifying coercion, all the ghouls fell to their knees on the ground. This time, with the breath of the king of undead, along with the spread of evil and foul power, a terrifying demon appeared.

This diabolical creature is fat and chubby, standing about three times as tall as a normal human being. Huge, spiraling horns grow from his goat head. His legs were thick brown with goat-like hooves. Huge strong arm wields a vicious skull wand. Two huge black bat-like wings stretched from his back, and a long snake-like tail with sharp barbs trailed behind him.

He is Orcus!

One of the most powerful demons in the Abyss! He is also the monarch of all the undead in the bottomless abyss!

Orcus has a huge army of undead, and the enemies he kills will be directly transformed into soldiers and generals in his army!

"The great undead king!"

The king of ghouls greeted the abyss giant's arrival. He bowed his head humbly and said, "Your servant has been waiting for your return."

A mighty army of undead emerged.

Ghoul, Skeleton Soldier, Corpse Demon, Wraith, Shadow, Corpse Night Witch, Hag, Lich, Mummy, Boda Corpse...

The huge undead army of Orcus emerged behind the portal, and it has gathered in a magnificent hall made of white bones. Obviously, his resurrection and awakening are inseparable from other undead monarchs in the underworld, and this time the undead disaster seems to have been planned for a long time.

Roar!

The awakened Orcus seems to be a little crazy. His pupils are full of chaos and killing. His mind is not as clear as other demon lords, but more like a demon controlled by the chaotic power of the bottomless abyss.

He uttered a terrifying roar into the sky!

And along with this angry roar, a force spread throughout the multiverse in an instant.

next moment.

The material plane, Modo City.

Sauron, who was far overseas, instantly appeared on the high platform of the Arcane Tower. He stared at the dark night sky and murmured: "Orcus is resurrected!..."

The former abyss giant is announcing his arrival.

Not only Sauron, who is far overseas, but all the gods in the entire material plane, and even the high-level devil of Baator hell, also learned of the resurrection of a powerful demon at this moment!
