It was a very quiet night. The soldiers of the Tumala defense line were stationed on the city walls as usual.

However, they did not notice a very serious problem. The dark veil that covered the sky in the North was moving.

The Undead Lord of the Dark Eternal Domain had long noticed that Hall had disappeared from Tumala!

Although there were other mages from Tumala, they were all too weak. In the eyes of the Undead Lord, they were just flies.

At midnight, the army of the undead was ready to move out.

The Undead Lord stood at the front of the army, raised the magic staff in his hand, and shouted to the troops behind him, “The Grand Magister who had stopped us from attacking all this time has finally disappeared from Tumala!”

“Today is the day we will take down the humans!”

“Let us march toward Tumala, break through this wall, and rule this world!”

After the Undead Lord finished his declaration, the undead soldiers behind him began to roar.

The sound was so loud that it could be heard from the city walls of Tumala.

After hearing the terrifying roar, the Castellan of Tumala immediately woke up and went to the scout tower to take a look.

When he realized that the sky-covering veil had completely covered Tumala, he immediately rang the bell on the tower.

At the same time, he lit up the red signal rod on the tower.

After seeing the red fog, the headquarters in the city began to sound the war alarm.

A piercing sound spread throughout the entire Tumala. All the sleeping soldiers had woken up.

Nervously and orderly, they put on their equipment and went outside the camp to prepare for the war!

After seeing that the soldiers were ready, the Castellan hurriedly returned to the command of the city.

A few high-level adventurers who were stationed here had been waiting for a long time. After entering the camp, he began to tell them about the news of the undead army.

Castellan Bishop: “The undead army is still half a day’s journey away from the defense line of Tumala. All of you, hurry up and get ready!”

Hearing this, Benedict Smith, the hero, said disdainfully, “It’s just an Undead Lord. There’s no need to be so nervous!”

Hearing the hero’s words, the four members of the adventurer team all laughed.

The heavy cannoneer used his broad hand to pat Bishop’s shoulder and said, “In the past, the Great Mage Hall alone could suppress the entire undead army!”

“Now, there are five of us, and even the hero himself has come. What’s there to be worried about?”

Seeing the appearance of these five people, Bishop had already come to a realization.

‘Looks like Tumala will definitely fall this time!’

Since the five of them were no longer in the mood to listen, Bishop turned around and left the command of the city, leaving them alone.

Not long after he left, Smith spat on the ground loudly.

“This guy is really useless. He doesn’t even know to prepare some good wine for us!”

After Bishop left, Deputy Castellan Gary also followed behind him and left the camp.

“Lord Bishop, are you really not going to discuss our plans with them?”

Hearing this, Bishop stopped in his tracks, turned around, and said to Deputy Castellan Gary, “Whatever, it doesn’t matter.”

“The Bravehearts are already here, we have nothing to worry about!”

“Go prepare some good wine and food, and treat them well before the war.”

“I’ll go back to Tumala city to arrange for the movement of some supplies, I’ll leave everything here to you!”

Deputy Castellan Gary thought that Bishop would be angry, but when he saw his calm expression, he felt relieved and went to the kitchen to prepare the ingredients.

After Bishop separated from Gary, he quickened his pace. He got into the carriage and told the butler to move quickly.

He quickly sped off South.

In the carriage, Bishop’s expression was very bad. He did not expect the soldiers to be so arrogant.

What kind of childhood did this soldier who wielded the Demon Slayer Sword have?!

The entire team did not even have a person who was stronger than a Grand Magister, yet they still had the face to boast.

If it were not for their attitude, Bishop might have stayed all the way to the start of the battle.

But after seeing their roguish appearance, he was completely disappointed in them!

Thinking back to Hall, he was a legendary magister since a hundred years ago and had poured his blood and sweat into every battle for the past hundred years.

Bishop was already regretting it. This was the most wrong thing he had done in his generation.

He regretted telling the Imperial Military Secretary that Hall had been corrupted by the \ origin of darkness.

While he was still in a daze in the carriage, the carriage had already entered the main city of Tumala.

“My Lord! We’ve arrived!”

The old butler and Lord Bishop prepared to get off the carriage and return to their rooms to rest. They then prepared to park the carriage in the stable.

When Bishop saw this scene, he hurriedly shouted, “Go to the stable and get two of the best horses!”

“Today, we’ll be leaving Tumala and going to the farthest place from here, my father-in-law, William Bay’s house!”

The old Butler was very puzzled. “Lord Bishop, why, if I may ask?”

Bishop did not reply to him. He simply said, “Set off quickly!”

“Remember not to make too much noise. We’ll be traveling overnight!”

“Everything will be going on as per normal!”

After arranging this, Bishop quickly went into the room and packed everything valuable that he had in a wooden box.

Looking at the pile of copper and silver coins in the room, he shook his head regretfully. Then, he picked out all the most valuable things in the room.

With his wife, he waited till sunset and headed North.

At this time, the undead troops outside Tumala had already attacked, but Deputy Castellan Gary still did not receive the order to perform a counterattack.

At the same time, the magic communication device in his hand was also unable to contact the Castellan, Bishop.

Helpless, he could only sit back and let the drunk adventurer team prepare to attack.

Because Gary treated them very well, after receiving the order to attack, the few of them quickly prepared together.

The war began, tens of thousands of soldiers in the city rushed out.

Benedict Smith led his S-rank adventurer team and charged at the front of the team.

As Deputy Castellan, Gary watched everything from the watchtower.

The first stop was very smooth, and the adventurer team was very brave. They broke through the undead army at high speed and created an opening for the human soldiers.

All the soldiers rushed through the gap, and soon, the tens of thousands of undead creatures in front of them were defeated.

However, the battle did not stop right there, because there were undead creatures constantly advancing from behind.

After advancing less than twenty meters, the human army was met with another massive group of undead soldiers and couldn’t advance anymore..
