Chapter 195 The Lich King’s Order

    ?Jacob watched as the bone carriage stopped in front of the pir, and the riders behind disembarked the zombie horses.


    At this moment, the Lich Minister again spoke, "%#$...!" (Your Majesty, your eternal servants, wee your arrival!)


    Jacob still didn''t understand what the Lich Minister just said, but when he saw the Lich Minister and the other ten extraordinary beings prostrating themselves before the carriage.


    All the dark beings suddenly fell on their knees after the Lich Minister, and Jacob naturally followed suit.


    He knew things had turned bad from worse. An extremely high-level dark being had joined the fray!


    ''Just who could force all the Dark Beings to kneel, even that guy with the staff who was aloofly sitting on that throne a minute ago? Don''t tell me some king or leader of the dark beings is in that carriage?'' Jacob nced at the carriage whilepletely hidden in the dark beings'' crowd.


    One of the riders moved and opened the door of the bone carriage.


    Thereby, a 3-meter tall dark being stepped outside the bone carriage. He has d in dark armor. Even the face was hidden behind a menacingly shaped dark helmet. The sheathed ck sword on the waist of the armor gave off a feeling of despair.


    The Lich King suddenly lifted his armored foot, and under Jacob''s horrid eyes, he vanished from his spot, and those two riders followed suit!


    Jacob didn''t have to search for long when his eyes fell on top of the pir, and they dted when he saw the Lich King was now sitting on the bone throne, and those two riders were respectfully standing on each of his sides.


    They were simply too fast for even Jacob to follow.


    ''Too strong!'' Jacob thought grimly as he started to think of a way out of this ce.


    ''The only safe ce should be is the skeleton priest temple right now. But I can''t stay there forever. The moment my supplies run out, I''ll die of hunger and thirst.


    ''I needed to find the exit, but that ce might be even more guarded than this one, and with so many high-level dark beings present, it would be suicide to reveal myself. Besides, I don''t even know where the exit is.


    ''I don''t know why this is happening, but I''m still alive, and they can''t see through my disguise, so it is a plus. I should wait and see before contemting my next course of action.


    ''I don''t believe the freedom ins won''t have any knowledge about the dark ruins, and they will not notice such a huge movement of dark begins.''


    Jacob thoroughly calmed down at this moment and focused on being a zombie. This might not be a bad thing since he could observe the enemy''s movement while remaining hidden amidst them.


    This ce was dangerous, but as well as safe, as long as he won''t provoke or go near those extraordinary, he''ll be one of these thousands of zombies.


    The only problem was he didn''t understand what they were saying!


    At this moment, the Lich King''s imposing voice rang, "Rise, my faithful Minister!"


    Only the Lich Minister rose while everyone remained in this position.


    Lich Minister respectfully stated as his voice was exempt from arrogance, "My King, your servant was ipetent. I let those preys fool me and stain your glory. Please punish me!"


    The hierarchy of the Dark Beings was quite simple, they followed the strongest, and as long as someone more powerful appeared to im that title, no one will stop them.


    Moreover, the stronger the dark being, the higher their status will be among the dark beings.


    The Lich King was the strongest Dark Being present in the Rare ins and ruled the Wild Nation for thousands of years.


    Many Dark Beings had challenged his position, but they ended up being his subordinates, just like the Lich Minister before him.


    Rumor has it that it was a sacred rule among the dark beings that if you were defeated by the ruler, you''d be forever his servant.


    The Lich King emotionlessly said, "You''ll be sent to the Ice Grinder for a Hundred Years after this expedition!"<novelsnext></novelsnext>


    The Lich Minister trembled slightly as he respectfully epted, "I will redeem myself!"


    The Lich King emotionlessly said, "Tell me, do you found any lead on where the other shackle is and who broke the first shackle or where?"


    "Although it is not confirmed yet. But at that time, only the 2nd Freedom Lord was instated in the Dark Ruins, and we were keeping a tight leash over every entry point we had discovered in these 400 years.


    "So, it was most likely the 2nd Freedom Lord, only he is cunning enough to pull someone like this off among the Four Freedom Lords, or it was simply a fluke. But we are still skimming through the dark ruins for the site of the broken shackle.


    "As for the reaming shackle, one is definitely inside the castle behind my King. It is the only ce we manage to discover a secret underground secret room that ispletely intact, and there is also a riddle in this secret room!" The Lich Minister revealed.


    "I know about it already. It is the same riddle that should not be spoken, or it will cause the resitter''s death, and Wight Minister is guarding that ce. I want to know whether you guys decipher the riddle or not." The Lich King coolly questioned.


    The Lich Minister trembled before he replied, "It was Wight Minister''s duty while I was in charge of finding the other ces with shackles. As my King already knows, we have to be extremely careful not identally destroy the clues, so there is still no progress in finding the second site."


    "But someone else still beat you to it, right?" The Lich King''s voice was filled with darkness as he uttered.


    "It was indeed your servant who is at culpability!" Lich Minister quickly kneeled down.


    "I don''t care about finding clues anymore. Just destroy the whole ce. The other side had already broken one shackle, and if they again do it, we''ll be angering the higher beings if those preys manage to win despite our strength.


    "The other side will have the same thing in mind as well. Don''t underestimate a cornered opponent. If they somehow managed to win the authority, they could easily increase the power restriction cap on their faction. And I don''t need to tell you what will happen when such a scenario urs, right?" The Lich King coldly stated.


    The Lich Minister horridly replied, "I''ll immediately start the search!"


    "Good, we don''t just need to clear the entire dark ruins. We also need to stop the other side frompleting it for 200 years. As long as the second shackle won''t break within 200 years, the old shackle will reset, so the dark ruins with it. It would be easier to clear this ce where those prey won''t have any advantage." The Lich King coldly sneered.


    "My King is indeed wise!" The Lich Minister quickly agreed with Lich King.


    "Alright, move everyone above the Tier-7 into the vicinity of the castle, and those with tier-9 should guard the outer castle with their life. Lastly, half the Extraordinaries will patrol the inner castle and area around the secret room.


    "I''ll be visiting the Wight Minister to see if he deciphered the riddle or not. No one should step inside the castle as long as they''re alive!


    "The Dark Knights will be garrisoning this entrance. The freedom ins won''t sit still, and they will start a war of attraction to find the other shackle. This ce will be their prime target. Kill them all, and if those fool lords appear, alert me.


    "Meanwhile, keep searching for the other shackles. I won''t ept any more blunders on your side. I''ll be right here watching everything, and don''t make me take action before it is time to break the reaming shackles!" The Lich King gave his final verdict.


    The Lich Minister and the two Dark Knights standing on Lich King''s side epted, and the next moment the Lich King was gone from the bone throne just as he appeared.


    Jacob, who was hearing those two''s faint mumbling, was perplexed, but he had no choice but to stay still like all those zombies.


    At this moment, the Lich Minister again looked toward the crowd and shrank loudly, and then all the dark beings stood up.


    Jacob, who was only fifty meters away from the newly arrived army of extraordinary dark beings, suddenly felt something amiss.


    At this moment, all those zombies with markings stood straight like solider and every other Dark being present in the area, as a matter of fact.


    Everyone was facing the castle, including Jacob.


    Suddenly half of the extraordinary dark beings started to walk toward the castle and behind them walked half of the marking zombie and skeleton warrior army.


    Jacob was among thousands of zombies who started moving toward the castle!
