"What did you say? A silver vortex has dragged away a large number of undead?" said the mysterious man at the Clock Tower Magic Association in confusion.
"Why would there be a silver vortex all of a sudden?" the group of people was dumbfounded.
The outside of the barrier was either drenched from the rain or covered by an ocean of undead. What was this silver vortex?
"It's a turbulent flow of space, a space tunnel that can drag living forms into it and teleport them to somewhere else," said Han Ji slowly.
Everyone climbed up to the observation tower. There was indeed a silver vortex spinning in the darkness on the outside of the barrier.
The silver vortex continued to drag the undead nearby into it. The undead that fell into it simply went missing. When the silver vortex disappeared, a huge clear space was left behind.
"Where did the undead go?" said Elder Chu Jia of the Hunter Union.
The silver vortex had only lasted for a short period. However, it had easily sucked around two thousand undead away. Although the number was nothing compared to the size of the undead army, it was still a strange phenomenon!
"So, can we still see how they are doing?" Du Xiao was more concerned about Mo Fan and the others.
They had proceeded onto the Nine Bridges of Death and One Bridge of Life. There were no copper mirrors on the bridges, thus they had no clue what the youngsters were up to.
"I think so, the Wicked Eye Copper Mirrors in the tomb are possessed by souls. They will follow intruders around. The copper mirror before has already flown toward the bridge that Mo Fan and his crew picked. I believe we can… it's showing something, look!" blurted out Xie Sang.

Xie Sang's copper mirror was showing a slightly curved land. As they were observing the place from high above, it felt like they could see the whole land.
"Look, what's that?"
"Silver… a silver vortex?"
The people were stunned. The same silver vortex that had appeared outside of the city had also appeared in the space. Most shockingly, the undead that it had dragged away were now pouring down like raindrops, landing on the curved land!
"What...what the hell is going on?" Everyone was trying to make sense of this.
They soon discovered Mo Fan, Zhang Xiaohou, Liu Ru, and Su Xiaoluo on the ground, looking fairly tiny from their viewpoint. Initially, they were the only ones on the spacious land, but as the undead poured down like raindrops, the place was suddenly filled with a sinister atmosphere!
"I'm afraid… I'm afraid they have picked the Bridge of Death. They are now in the Space of Death!" Xie Sang stated glumly.
If they had chosen the right bridge, it would have led them straight to the altar. However, they had fallen into a unique space, implying that they had chosen the wrong bridge!
Space of Death!
The people who entered it had no chance of surviving!
"Does that mean they are trapped in there?" asked Yao Nan.
"A unique space must have an entrance and an exit, otherwise it would just be a dead space that's impossible to enter. The space isn't huge, roughly the size of the inner city, and there's nothing else in there. It won't be hard to find the exit...but, the silver vortex has suddenly brought around two thousand undead into the space, which are going to kill them..." said Han Ji.Find authorized novels in Webnovel,faster updates, better experience,Please click www.novelhall.comfor visiting.

"I could easily kill two thousand undead if I was there. Humph, I already said that they should have split up and picked a bridge each. Look what happened, they have ended up in the Space of Death. How can these little kids handle two thousand undead!" harrumphed Chu Jia in exasperation.
"I think they can handle around two thousand undead still," said Yao Nan.
"I agree, Mo Fan's strength isn't comparable to that of an ordinary Intermediate Magician," said Zuo Feng.
"How can an Intermediate Magician face two thousand undead at once? Do you think I'm stupid!" Chu Jia no longer had any hope. He seemed to be fretting.
The mysterious man and Han Ji both had stern looks on their faces. They felt hopeless after learning that the group had arrived in the Space of Death, not to mention the undead were about to end their lives...
"Chief Xie, does this mean the Bridges of Death aren't really that terrifying? If they have an Advanced Magician among them, wouldn't they be able to handle the undead easily?" asked Elder Ling Xi.
She too felt that it was unreliable to place the fate of the city in the hands of a few young Magicians. The situation would be totally different if a Super or Advanced Magician was with them.
"No, that isn't the case. Describing something to be weak or strong is actually subjective. The dangerous places that the people are referring to will never pose a threat to strong Magicians. However, in the case of the Ancient King's tomb, even a Forbidden Magician can't be sure that he could enter the place safely. The reason is, according to the rules that the Ancient King set, the difficulty of the situation is adjusted based on the capabilities of the candidates. Although you're only seeing a few thousand undead in the Space of Death now, it is only because their strength isn't high. However, if you were the ones inside the Space of Death, the levels and the number of the undead will increase significantly!" said Xie Sang.
Most people in the tower were Super Magicians. They were more knowledgeable than Xie Sang, hence they immediately understood the situation when they heard Xie Sang's explanation.
"It seems like the Ancient King isn't only the founder of the Undead Element and an expert of the Space Element, he's also an expert of the Chaos Element. I can't even imagine how many resources he spent constructing the tomb! But I have to say that I'm impressed by his intelligence, even though the tomb was built more than two thousand years ago," an aged scholar spoke up.
Only the Chaos Element could achieve the things that Xie Sang had mentioned.
Among the Dimensional Magic Elements, the Space Element was the strongest. The Summoning Element was the most diverse, the Music Element was primarily used for supporting and harassing, and the Chaos Element was the eeriest and the most unpredictable. These Dimensional Magic Elements were difficult to understand, let alone the complicated Chaos Element!
However, they were confident that the Ancient King was an expert with the Chaos Element, too!
"Around two thousand undead, hopefully they can make it," said Han Ji.
"I feel like these undead are only just the beginning… even though the group's strength isn't outstanding, they are still in the Space of Death. There's simply no chance for them to survive," added Xie Sang.
Everyone fell silent upon hearing Xie Sang's words. Han Ji subconsciously glanced at the inner city beset by the calamity. His eyes were losing hope...

Teddy Bear
As it would stand, the truth of the matter was that aliens had visited Earth before. Roswell was neither a hoax nor unique. It was simply a consequence of a world growing smaller as communication systems became more and more advanced, partly a result of said visitations. For the most part, past interactions between one of the planet Earth's more intelligent species of lifeform and the alien visitors were along the lines of obscure scientific surveys and tests disturbingly similar to attempts by some human scientists to estimate the intelligence of simians.For any species capable of travelling the stars. Visiting planet Earth made about as much sense as backpacking through the Ural Mountains of Siberia with nothing but a flint and a compass. That is to say, most people would prefer to stay close to someplace within walking distance of a mall or a population density slightly higher than four sapient beings per parsec. Still, statistically speaking, there are bound to be some weirdos who find joy rides though a nowhere solar system fun. Just buzzing a frantic farmer or two and playing chicken with an F-16 for the heck of it. Maybe even bring home a bovine to show off to the guys at the office.

Chronicles of Rathia - The Era of Blood
Welcome to the Chronicles of Rathia. Contained within is a trilogy of stories which are all set in different time periods and with different characters. Each story has its own era from The Era of Blood, The Era of Magic and The Era of Demons. Read along the first in the series which is The Era of Blood where magic is still in an infant stage and where swords can dominate the battle field. In The Era of Blood, you follow along the first main character who had his memories wiped clean except for the most basic things in life. It is up to him to find out how to get his memories back and why they are gone. (If you don't like the story layout or characters, I suggest either just reading through or wait till the next one in the series is being released. With how it's set up, you can enjoy any of the three in the trilogy but of course reading in order will help give a better understanding of the world.) (Side authors note - I'm currently reworking the first several chapters as they are lacklustre to myself since they were originally a draft and not concrete at first. This note will stay here until all the chapters I wanted to fix up are done.)

During the five nights he stays inside the pizzeria, he befriends animatronics, discovers information about not only the recent disappearances, but also the dark history of Fazbear Entertainment, all while he has to avoid being killed by rabid animatronics and whomever this mysterious "Vanny" is.
