Chapter 282: The Undead Preparing For War

The Vermillion Bird descended to the platform and greeted Adrian by manifesting seven rainbows behind it. It seems that the Vermillion Bird is now back to full strength but the territory they are in right now is still not back to its former glory.

"Thank you, Champion Equinox. You have returned me to my former glory. Do not worry of your compensation as I asked my followers to gather your compensation as you suddenly disappeared before I managed to hand it to you." The Vermillion Bird said using telepathy.

"Sorry about my sudden disappearance, I was flocked by mere flies and some dogs but I managed to repel them with the help of your patron gods. It is their help that made me return to my peak state." The Vermillion Bird stated through telepathy while it sent a telepathic transmission to his followers to give Adrian all the precious herbs.

Adrian is given a sack that is about the size of a volleyball. It might look like it is quite small but this is what other players use when their inventory is full. Adrian has unlimited inventory due to being of the Daemos race so other people has to improvise.

This sack is a spatial bag that is considered a rare commodity as it is only found in ruins. It is a rare commodity because only people who mastered space magic can create one using a special method. Adrian received the bag with delight as he knows how priceless those herbs are.

"Thank you for putting your trust in me. I hope you can rebuild the city of Shangri-La once more. It was the most breathtaking city that I visited in this world at least." Adrian stated in a half joking manner.

"I should be the one thanking you. You may not be welcomed in all parts of the eastern continent but the southern part of the east continent will always welcome you. You saved me so it is the least I could do if you ever want to train in the eastern continent." The Vermillion Bird replied telepathically.

Adrian bid farewell to the Vermillion Bird and to the others. He immediately teleported to the northern continent because he is now on a deadline of one day. Adrian arrived at the forge where the Ice Queen Elona is there once more.

"Do queens really have that much free time?" Adrian thought to himself as he entered the smithy.

It seems that Aurgelmir has already settled their differences and they have this aura that lovers emit that is toxic to very single people. The arrival of Adrian immediately startled and excited the Ice Queen as she is sure that the little demon has finally succeeded albeit a little too late.

Adrian did not stand in ceremony and got the spatial bag from his inventory and selected the Everfrost Flower. The Everfrost flower radiated a cold aura that will make anyone's bone feel cold. Adrian looked at the description and he is now sure that this flower will be used on the Great Star Gazer in the North.

Item: Everfrost Flower

Tier: Legendary

Type: Herb

Description: A flower said to be imbued with the power of immense cold and can only be grown in the coldest environment. It is said that with its immense cold property that it could even stop time for a person's body.

"She must be using the flower in order to slow down the effects of the sacrificed life force of the Great Star Gazer. Still, it would not be enough because the only way to reverse the effects of using a life force would be to become a god. At best, they would only be able to slow down the effects of her whittling life and be able to let her live until a hundred." Adrian thought to himself as he handed the flower to the Ice Queen Elona.

"Although you are a bit late, I still thank you for a job well done. I will return with your reward momentarily as the difficulty of the quest that I gave you is high. You even managed to arrive a day before the deadline so I will give you props for that." The Ice Queen Elona stated and she disappeared with a frosty breeze.

"It seems that you will have to wait for Elona for quite some time, brat. Why not help me out a bit while you wait? I also finished restoring one of the legendary weapons that you gave me.

Here it is but do not expect much as I only restored it until it is considered a weapon like you asked me too." Aurgelmir stated with a grunt because even he does not like half-baked products but the materials really stretched his blacksmithing capabilities thin.

"Thanks, old man. I only need a few more before my weapon can evolve into a legendary rank. The only problem now is my clothes." Adrian stated with a sigh.

[You have received the Flame Drake Broadsword.]

Adrian was about to keep the sword but then Aurgelmir told him something.

"Can I see how your gloves absorb the weapon? I am curious to see how it will happen." Aurgelmir asked and Adrian agreed to humor the old man.

Adrian held the Flame Drake Sword using his two hands and activated the feed option of the Twilight Demi-Gauntlets. The demi-gauntlets slipped away from Adrian's hand and formed some sort of mouth. The mouth then started to chomp on the sword like it has not been feed for quite a while.

The eating process of the demi-gauntlets really made Aurgelmir interested because he only picked up blacksmithing recently. By recently, he means he picked it up when he inhabited a fire giant's body which is perfect for forging weapons.

"Interesting! It seems like you weapon is alive but it has yet to awaken its sentience." Aurgelmir stated which Adrian took note of.

Adrian was about to ask Aurgelmir about what the latter stated but a world message has been announced.

[The War between the Undead will now officially start. All undead below level 100 will receive a ten times experience multiplier until they reach the first threshold.]

"It seems that the world would be turned around once more." Adrian thought as he knows that the camp of the Undead King is weaker compared to the Arch Lich' camp. At least now, Adrian knows that the Arch Lich managed to recover but it seems the vile thing wants to finally all living things.
