Emperor of Steel Chapter 734

Chapter 734: 734
To the north of the Libiya Kingdom was a large mountain covered in ice caps .
It was Blanches .
Two years ago, unknown humans and monsters began to come and go on the mountain, which was meant ‘white hair’ in the ancient language .
They drilled holes in the mountain and began to build huge underground bases .
The base got completed six months ago, and as soon as it was built, hundreds of warlocks and undead moved there .
Hundreds of coffins lined up in a large cavity of 10 meters high and 300 meters wide .
Inside a transparent tube was a naked person in a green liquid .
People around it seemed dark as their body wasn’t getting used to the energy from the body .
If any general person encountered the energy, they would die in an instant .
However, there was one who enjoyed the energy with a relaxed face .
It was the Lich King, Arsene .
‘KulKulkul! It is a lot faster than I thought . It was really lucky for us to discover the Demon blood . ’
In order to make the undead, a huge amount of Magi had to be used, which was the source of the Dark Magic, and special items were required .
However, there was a hole in the basement of Blanches where Magi gushed out .
It was the contact point where the Middle Earth and the Devildom meet, but the size was too small, so it wasn’t enough for life to cross into the Devildom, but it was enough for Magi to leak .
Thanks to the establishment of the secret lab in addition to the Demon blood, the undead process picked up the pace .
Thud! Thud!
As Arsene walked and stood toward a wall, the wall split and an entrance appeared .
As he entered through there, a small room appeared .
Ten coffins were laid down, yet an unusual amount of energy was coming out of them .
Even Arsene’s skin was tingling as he looked down at the undead that seemed like his kids .
“The working of the Advanced Lich and Death Knight are also going smooth . ”
The 10 coffins contained Advanced Undead .
The Advanced Liches were like 9th circle wizards, and the Advanced Death Knight were Sword Emperor and were nothing short of Baymon and Hiros—the masterpieces Arsene had created in the past .
However, it wasn’t a single one, but 10 of them .
The moment they would wake, the continent would have to kneel for Arsene .
‘Kuku, no matter how strong Luke is, he won’t be able to handle this . ’
It was when Arsene was smiling…
Brrrrrr-!

The magic communication tool in his hand vibrated .
He immediately infused mana into it, and a familiar face appeared .
It was Zemerton, the former elder .
“What is it? I told you to not call me for a while”
-I am very sorry, but I contacted you as I had something to relay .
Zemerton remained in Felipe on behalf of Arsene to look after the brainwashed heads of the Libiya Kingdom .
He was carrying out the task of infecting the Libiya people with zombie poison and brainwashing the Knights and soldiers .
When Arsene tried to calm himself, Zemerton hurriedly to the news .
“The Baroque Empire zombie spraying failed?”
-Yes, Master . Although they did spread the zombie disease, it was said that it had been suppressed completely after just four days .
After a moment of silence, Arsene yelled, “F*ck! What on earth did those warlocks even do? Wasn’t it easy to just spread the zombie disease!”
-It was said that the Holy Pope of the Arthenia Empire appeared and treated all the people who turned into zombies .
“What?! The Holy Pope appeared?”
-Yes, according to the officials who were keeping an eye on the situation, the rapid fast action of the Continental Alliance and the enormous divine power of the Pope prevented the spread of the disease .
Bang!
Arsene thumped his feet at Zemerton’s explanation .
Whether it was due to failure or anger, the floor of the basement cracked .
“Kuek! Why did that Pope have to appear…!”
It was Veronica III, who never left the Holy Imperial Palace .
So why did she move to the Baroque Empire?
But that wasn’t the end of the report .
Zemerton continued to speak with a trembling voice .
-A-and, master . Nemesis was said to be captured within a day .
At his words, Arsene made a flustered expression as if he couldn’t understand .
“What about Rudolf? As long as he is there, it can’t be captured that easily!”
No matter how the momentum of the alliance was going, he knew all about the core power of the Baroque Empire .
Besides, Rudolf was the Sword Emperor .
I thought that if such men of SS Knights fight, even the allied six nations would suffer .
-According to the report of the sources, before the fall of Nemesis, the Baroque Imperial Palace suddenly collapsed along with an earthquake, and the places around the palace too were down . It seemed that something unusual happened at the Imperial Palace, but after that, Emperor Rudolf never appeared in front of anyone .
If the enemy captured Nemesis and Rudolf didn’t even appear, it meant that there was a major problem .

“Is he dead?”
-There was such a rumor, and according to the separate investigation done by the Ministry of Information, its possibility of his death is quite high .
“Ugh, what is going on?”
The situation was turning into a direction where nothing seemed to be good for warlocks .
It was nice to see Rudolf die, an enemy he would have had to confront one day .
However, the problem was if Rudolf was down, then Luke’s next target would be Arsene .
If the Continental Alliance, which had gotten into the flow, pushed right in for the Libiya Kingdom, the troops of Libiya could never stop them .
‘Bloody Luke! He is constantly turning into a block in my path!’
It was Luke who blocked Arsene’s plan to use Jo Won-gyun as the ruler of the Southern Continent and turn it into an outpost for the Undead .
And as if that wasn’t enough, Luke was aiming for the Libiya Kingdom he just took control .
Arsene, frowned while moving back and forth in the closed room .
“We can’t help it . I need to activate the zombie poison that has been injected into the bodies of the people!”
-Ha, only 60% of the people have been injected with the poison .
“We aren’t in a situation where we can be selective of our options . First, we need to earn some time, we have no choice but to put the undead after they are completely done . ”
Unfinished Undead could only use half of the power .
They would still be strong enough, but the problem was Luke and the other alliance’s power .
In order to deal with them, an advanced undead of 100% completion was required .
“I want you to execute the operation ‘Darkness of Dawn’ right away!”
-Understood, Master!
Under the directions of Arsene, Zemerton disappeared from the crystal ball after ending the communication .
‘I need to hurry as much as possible . ’
With that in mind, Arsene decided to come up with a special method to fasten the process of the Undead .
At his command, the warlocks in the secret hideout gathered .
“What is happening? The master called us all?”
“Well, I heard that the Continental Alliance invaded the Baroque Empire a while back . ”
“Uh, after sleeping for only two hours a day because of the undead, I am really tired!”
“Yeah, this is all . I don’t know if it is because of the magic, but I feel like I am turning into a mummy!”
“Kuek! The dark circles under my eyes are reaching my chin soon!”
The young warlocks were talking to each other until the elders glared at them .
After a while, Arsene appeared and they all greeted him by kneeling on one knee .
“Master!”
“Well, everyone has worked so hard . ”
Arsene, who climbed onto the stage, was greeted by his disciples and opened his mouth .
“You don’t have to struggle anymore . ”
“Huh? What do you mean?”
Two elders, who were pouring their heart and soul into the Undead, were shocked at Arsene’s words .
“Kuek, what I mean is I need you to accelerate the undead making by sacrificing yourselves . ”
At Arsene’s words, the central square was surrounded by silence .
“Hahaha, you are joking too much, master . ”
Elder Telian asked with a smile, unlike the warlocks who were still stiff .
“My words sound like a joke to you? If you don’t believe it, I will show you . ”
Snap!
The moment Arsene snapped his finger, black plants sprang from the floor and wrapped around the body of Telian .
Sucking up all the Magi in his body .
“Ugh!”
Telian was shocked . He tried to get out, but in an instant, he turned into a mummy after getting his Magi sucked .
The warlocks in the place were shocked by the death of an elder who had reached 8 circle .
Some of them made the expression that they were still not understanding what was going on .
“Mas-master! Why are you doing this!?”
“I did tell you a while ago, right? I need you to sacrifice yourselves to speed up the creation of the undead . ”
That was when they realized that Arsene’s words were no joke . They screamed and fled in all directions .
“Master has turned crazy!”
“Everyone run!”
“Kukk, you all think you can run away from my hands?!”
Arsene laughed and activated his Black Bind .
Swoosh! Swoosh!
Hundreds and thousands of strands soared from the ground, catching the legs of the warlocks who were trying to flee in all directions .
“Ah, no! Go away!”
“Acckkkk!”
The warlocks protested, trying to use defense magic or attack the plants .
However, there was no warlock in the basement who was strong enough to avoid Arsene’s Black Bind .
Eventually, they turned into mummies after getting wrapped by the magi .
The warlocks, whose magi got absorbed into the plants, flowed right into the undead coffins .
That resulted in something amazing .
Woong!
The undead began to shine, and they began to contain the magi that was released into the green liquid around them .
“Get up quickly, my children! Become the Vanguard of the Dark Legion and slaughter the entire Middle Earth! Hahaha!”
Arsene’s eyes, which were stained in madness, and his mouth, which laughed, rang in the underground for a long time .
