Planner of Age of Heroes

Even if what made him happy was the intense killing and resentment.

The Lord of the Undead rubbed his forehead and then narrowed his eyes. Although he did not inherit too many memories after inheriting this body, some life instincts were still fine, such as the aesthetics and clothing of people in this era, and how to use some modern items. He could not remember clearly about the city map and the like.

But it didn’t matter. After all, there was something called a map in this world. Moreover, as the master of the undead, he could feel the places where evil and turbidity were most concentrated. Such places were either ancient battlefields where a large number of corpses were buried, or areas where criminals were imprisoned. Now he was in the urban area, and what he felt was most likely a prison.

As he approached the prison step by step, the prison guard had already placed his hands on his waist, signaling the Lord of the Undead to stop and be inspected. Ordinary people would not be allowed to enter the prison without special training. Now was not the visiting period, and if someone tried to force his way into the prison at this time, they would only suspect that this person might have other purposes.

“Stop! Show your ID and submit to inspection. This is not a place where young people like you can just come and play!”

The Lord of the Undead curled his lips, and turbid green flames began to burn on his body. The flames quickly spread to the surroundings and distorted time and space. The flames were like opening a passage to another world. One after another, hounds with flames burning on their bodies and melted armor and bones on their bodies crawled out from the burning flames.

The police officer guarding the gate immediately pulled out a pistol from his waist and sounded the alarm. He was just an ordinary person, and after seeing a capable person coming here, he was of course extremely panicked. It was obvious to the naked eye that the person was not friendly!

“Damn it, he’s actually a person with special abilities!!”

The gun in the hands of the police officer guarding the gate is a special firearm. After all, this prison holds not only ordinary criminals, but also people with special abilities. The only difference is that compared to ordinary criminals, people with special abilities are held in a high-pressure area underground.

Each country has different custody arrangements for criminals with special abilities. In Great Britain, all criminals with special abilities are confined to special underground prison facilities and are required to wear special bracelets to suppress their abilities and give them electric shocks at any time. If they are people with lightning abilities, other methods will be used.

Great Britain is also one of the countries that concentrates people with special abilities and ordinary people in one area for management and monitoring. This saves land area. After all, not every country can be said to be vast and rich in resources. Countries like islands and countries with relatively small land areas will adopt this approach.

Of course, this is not the case in China. Those with special abilities who kill people will naturally be killed and punished with death. Others will be imprisoned in the Gobi Desert or on islands, and then equipped with special equipment to suppress their abilities, and carry out afforestation transformation, or they may first take over the sovereignty of some small islands.

Of course, dispersed detention has its advantages, and collective detention also has its advantages. However, the biggest disadvantage of collective detention has now become apparent.

Whenever chaos occurs, some of the imprisoned people with special abilities always have some ulterior motives in their hearts. At the same time, because the prisons for ordinary people are above those for people with special abilities, every prison break is a disaster for ordinary criminals and prison guards.

Even if they have special weapons against people with special abilities, ordinary people are just ordinary people. Their physical fitness and the damage they can cause are far inferior to those of C-level people with special abilities.

Looking at the undead hounds rushing towards them, the guards kept pulling the trigger. However, the hounds moved extremely fast. Even if the special bullets hit the hounds and penetrated their bodies, how could these undead creatures stop their actions just because of a serious injury?

Chapter 260: Attacking the Prison for Abilities

The so-called undead creatures are those who can laugh up to the sky, say that it is just a fatal injury, and then continue to fight. Even the Lord of the Undead has sighed more than once that if he had such a fearless army when he was alive, he would not only be the king of Great Britain, he could even flatten Rome.

However, those are all ifs, there are not so many ifs in the world.

The King of the Dead looked at the undead hounds he summoned, and saw them tearing the guard in front of him to the ground. Screams rang out in the open space, and blood was spilled all over the ground. Pieces of clothes and some pieces of flesh were thrown around as the hounds were feeding them.

Looking at the special weapon rolling at his feet, the King of the Undead just curled his lips in disdain and stepped on it. The powerful force directly caused cracks to appear on the weapon, and then it was directly damaged. Seeing that he failed to crush the special weapon into pieces with one foot, the King of the Undead couldn’t help but curl his lips. After occupying this body, the power he possessed had not yet been fully awakened.

Otherwise, he would have already used his sword to actually feel the sharp blade cutting through the human body and the blood spilling on himself.

But unfortunately, as his strength had not been restored, he could only summon these irrational beings to act as his thugs for the time being. He couldn’t even completely open the door to the undead space.

But it doesn’t matter, as long as his strength is slowly recovering, it won’t be a big problem.

The defense personnel holding machine guns have been prepared from the time the alarm sounded until now, standing on the wall. The special machine guns in their hands have been aimed at the Undead King, ready to fire special bullets at any time.

The team leader who came here looked at the king who could summon the undead and issued a final ultimatum, “Just surrender and stop struggling in vain. As long as you surrender, I will report it to the higher-ups and reduce some of your sins!”

No matter what, they are facing people with special abilities, and fighting with them will not have any good results. In order to avoid causing more losses, it is necessary to ask. Perhaps this is not fair to the guard who just died, but if it can avoid more sacrifices, it does not seem to be a bad thing.

Just like in the case of the bald eagle, there are also cases where some rare information is used to absolve one’s own crimes.

However, the Lord of the Undead had a very clear goal, so how could he stop his actions just because of a word from the captain? Facing the captain’s warning, the Lord of the Undead simply raised his arm, and the flames burned more and more fiercely, like an eagle with melted armor on its body flying out of the flame gate.

When everyone saw that the opponent not only did not cancel the previously summoned undead, but instead summoned new undead, the team leader also understood what the existence in front of him was thinking, so he directly gave the order to cover the fire. For this kind of person with ability who killed people, the approach adopted by most countries is to pay with a life for a life.

After all, once a precedent of protecting people with special abilities is set, it will truly divide the country into two classes, which is not a good thing for the development of the country. Only a few countries that really find it difficult to retain people with special abilities will adopt an aristocracy and divide people with special abilities into new aristocrats who have all kinds of special rights.

What’s more, people with the ability to kill for no reason are, to some extent, extremely dangerous. If they are allowed to survive or are not permanently imprisoned, it will cause greater losses and panic to the people of this country.

“Fire!!”

Special bullets covered the direction of the Lord of the Undead, but the king who returned from the world of death just raised his hand, and a giant whale with a huge body, hideous bones and rotten flesh appeared in the flames, blocked the bullets and then slowly fell back into the flames. The flames were like waves around the whale.

At the same time, the running hounds and flying death eagles quickly attacked the small troops on the wall. Their mutated claws that were like mountaineering picks not only gave these hounds a powerful ability to tear flesh, but also powerful climbing skills they had never had before. These sharp claws pierced directly into the wall, and then jumped upwards with force.

The hounds of death reached the top of the wall in just a few seconds, forcing the team leader, who had been keeping an eye on the Lord of the Undead, to disperse his men to fight against the monsters that kept climbing up.

At the same time, facing the monsters in the air, the team leader was fully prepared. With a special gesture in his hand, the well-trained guard immediately adjusted the direction of the machine gun in his hand and fired towards the sky.

One after another, the wings of the undead eagles were pierced by the bullets, which made their flying movements somewhat unbalanced. However, the melted armor on their bodies quickly filled the holes in their wings under the burning effect of the undead fire, and everything seemed as if nothing had happened.

The remains of the hounds that were smashed to pieces by the bullets suddenly caught fire, and while some of the guards were unable to react, they opened their mouths and jumped up. Only their heads or paws were left, but these limbs seemed to be pulled by something.

The sound of bones piercing flesh was heard, and several soldiers fell directly against the wall, their chests or necks pierced by the bones of the hounds.

For those who are not people with special abilities, after suffering such an attack, their lives can basically be declared to have come to an end.

At this time, a black shadow jumped out from the shadow of the Lord of the Undead, holding a special dagger in his hand, and stabbed towards the heart of the Lord of the Undead.

The Lord of the Undead turned around and opened his hand the next moment, grabbing the head of the black shadow. Because he had died once before, he was extremely disgusted with death. After seeing the existence that was about to attack him, he naturally felt an unquenchable anger in his heart, “Is there someone with the ability to move from a shadow?”

The Lord of the Undead slowly exerted force with his palm, and the skull of this user made a creaking sound. The pain in his brain was so severe that he couldn’t even scream. He could only use a hoarse voice to express his surprise and discomfort.

Chapter 261: The lingering “Father”

Looking into the eyes of the attacker in front of him, the user with this ability couldn’t help but feel a bit more regretful in his heart. This regret was quite complicated. He regretted not having trained his abilities well, and also regretted having acted rashly.

At the same time, the user also understood that the person who attacked the prison was definitely more powerful than they thought. Just the physical strength and speed were enough to crush a C-level user like him. The person in front of him was definitely above B-level! When did such a powerful person appear among the illegal users?

The Lord of the Undead looked at the person with the ability in his hand and temporarily reduced his anger a little. The ability to shuttle through shadows is indeed somewhat useful. Perhaps it can come in handy when he reunifies this land, or even this world, in the future. So it would be a waste to kill him like this.

Looking at the blazing flaming gate and the kingdom of the dead opposite the gate, the Lord of the Undead prepared to convert this ability user directly into an undead. Even if he was just a rabid dog without self-awareness, with the ability to travel through shadows, he would be a capable general.

The user with special abilities felt his body being thrown out fiercely. A cloudy green light flashed before his eyes. Before he could rejoice that he had escaped death and could transfer through shadow, the user with special abilities found that he was no longer in his original world. He was surrounded by roaring undead spirits, and at the same time, waves of violent information and consciousness rushed into his mind.

This is the land of death. How many people in the world can calmly accept death? How many people are not affected by such an environment?

The filthy flames began to climb up the legs of the person with the ability. He found that his body was showing signs of transforming into the undead, which made him scream in despair. The despair in his heart made him transform into the undead even faster.

In the real world, with the defeat of the first ability user, other ability users became more cautious when they wanted to take action. Except for those who were truly loyal, everyone else was already prepared to evacuate directly. Even a fool could see that the combat power and ability level possessed by the existence in front of them far exceeded theirs.

He is so young but has such terrifying abilities. It is no problem to call this guy who controls the undead abnormal. Could he be an abnormal life form in human skin?

A beautiful woman wearing a red dress with strange patterns on her arms and legs and holding a lady’s cigarette in her hand stood not far from the prison. She looked at the prison which had already been in chaos, and there was a hint of fear on her beautiful face. How did the so-called father know the location of these things?

Moreover, even she did not see that the young man was actually a monster in human skin. Even a man-made anomaly like him could not sense the aura. How did her father determine it? Originally, she was thinking of finding a way to find an opportunity to escape, but now it seems that she can only complete the task obediently.

When the father got angry, even she couldn’t bear it.

Exhaling the smell of the cigarette, the woman in the red dress took out a strangely shaped box from her package, and finally slowly opened the box. The special smell that permeated the surroundings began to be silently absorbed by the box.

The woman in the red dress didn’t know why her father wanted to collect these auras of death, but now her father was stronger than her, so she had no choice but to surrender. There was nothing to be embarrassed about, but one day she would be free, so before that, she would let her father obey her for the time being.

A young man saw a beauty by the window and couldn’t help but whistle. When most people chose to leave here because of the riot in the prison not far away, this beauty who was watching everything leisurely and lazily seemed even more unique.

“Beauty, are you interested in this? I happen to be interested in this as well. How about we have a drink together tonight?”

Looking at the young man who came over to talk to her, the woman in the red dress slightly raised the corners of her mouth. Her fiery red lips and a pair of slightly sharp teeth revealed a bit of danger. At the same time, the feeling of a salesperson on her became stronger.

Taking out a business card that she had just made with blood from her chest, the woman in a red dress stuffed the business card into the young man’s hand. Looking at the young man’s expression of obsession and joy as he felt the warmth of the business card, the woman patted the young man on the shoulder and leaned her head close to the ear of the adult boy.

“Okay, when you have prepared the place tonight, remember to call me, sister. I quite admire you bold boys. Remember to wash yourself clean. I am looking forward to having a good meal.”

That’s right, a full meal in the physical sense!

It has been a long time since she last sucked blood and life. She didn’t expect that after evolving directly from a juvenile to an adult, even her desire to eat has become much stronger. However, as a monster, following her own desires is also a good way of life. It is precisely because of this that she feels dissatisfied with being controlled by her father.

If it weren’t for this crappy task of collecting the aura of death, she would have started eating by now!

On the other side, when the people with special abilities began to be cautious, the Lord of the Undead went deep into the area where the criminals were. The eagles wrapped in the flames of death were still disturbing the ordinary soldiers on the ground, while he took the death hounds and began to look for a passage leading to the underground.

Of course, it is better to find subordinates who are as strong as possible. The upper limit of these ordinary criminals-turned-Death Knights is just that. They are those who are turned into Death Knights with special abilities, so they can provide him with some surprises.

Looking at the gemstones in his hand, the Lord of the Dead smiled faintly. In order to avoid the recurrence of his past experience, he had embedded hints of loyalty in these gemstones. This time, he would surely be able to create a Knight of the Round Table who was loyal to him! He would not betray, would not die, and had great strength.

Looking at the door leading to the underground facility, the Lord of the Undead raised his hands, and the dirty flames began to melt the door made of special material. Amid the alarm, the Lord of the Undead slowly opened his hands, as if he was about to inspect his territory.

Chapter 262: Like a meat grinder

In this underground facility, as soon as the alarm sounded, some people with special abilities imprisoned here prepared to escape. They used brute force or skills to unlock the special bracelets on their hands. Part of the structure of these bracelets had been destroyed by them before, and then they waited for the prison guards to check and take away their keys!

When the Lord of the Undead opened his hands and slowly walked underground, he saw an extremely chaotic situation. Although it was very similar to the chaos in the Land of Death, it seemed that because these people were alive and there was boiling blood spilled on the ground during the fight, the Lord of the Undead felt even more excited and happy.

It turns out that this world of the living is better. Even the fights are much more “cute” than in the world of death!

A prisoner who had escaped earlier, seeing that the only passage leading to the outside, the special door had been melted by the flames, ran towards here, raised his fist, and his whole body began to transform into the shape of metal, “Get out of my way! I want to leave here now!”

The Lord of the Undead showed some displeasure on her face. She raised her hand, pinched the fist of the criminal with special abilities, and then threw it directly into the Fire Gate, and then closed the Fire Gate leading to the world of death. She really couldn’t like this kind of reckless existence.

Since you are so unable to distinguish the situation and so reckless, just enter the world of death directly and become one of the mad dogs in that world who have no self-awareness and only know how to kill. There is no difference between left and right, and they will obey your orders even more.

The Lord of the Undead opened his hands, and the filthy flames burned forward. One by one, skeletons with a strange feeling stretched out from the flames and pulled out a bridge in the air. The Lord of the Undead stepped on these bridges, walked in the air, and looked down at the underground prison where people were sitting in a mess.

Such high-profile behavior also attracted the attention of all the criminals and prison guards. The criminals imprisoned here basically knew each other. After all, there were still a few minutes of activities and relaxation time on weekdays. Moreover, everyone was capable and sometimes showed off their deeds to each other.

Therefore, the fans also recognized that the person walking in the air was not one of them, and the sudden chaos was caused by this person.

The dirty green flames spread outward, and huge skeletons emerged from the ground one after another, blocking the entire underground space once again. However, this time the underground space did not look like a prison but more like hell.

The pillars and walls that supported the underground space were all replaced by exposed bones. Filthy flames burned and flowed in the cracks between the bones. The King of the Undead stood right above everyone with a gem in his hand.

A person who had committed a crime looked up at the scene and shouted obsessively, “Are you here to save us?”

After hearing this, the Lord of the Undead slowly sat down with his chin supported by his hand. Behind him, a throne made of bones was quickly constructed in a short period of time. “Maybe, but I will only give you one chance, and only one person can get the chance to leave here.”

The eyes of the Lord of the Dead, which seemed to be burning with the fire of the dead, seemed to have ignited the desire for freedom in all criminals. Of course, there were also some criminals who did not want to do what the Lord of the Dead said.

These people ran directly towards the only gate. There were also many people with special abilities who were secretly watching all this. They were waiting to see the outcome. After all, this existence that suddenly appeared here must have powerful strength, and many people were curious about what the consequences would be if they went against this existence.

They are good at changing with the times, but this is a rare “good quality” they can show off.

If there is a chance to leave here directly, that would be the best. Otherwise, we can only fight for the one chance that this existence mentioned. Of course, the latter is not easy, or the choice of truth, goodness and beauty.

It certainly wasn’t a happy ending.

“Foolish! How can you challenge the king’s decision like this!”

Those who were running towards the only exit suddenly opened their eyes wide. Right in front of them, a raging and dirty fire suddenly ignited. Finally, a huge Tyrannosaurus Rex skeleton, as if wearing armor, appeared from the flames, swallowed the person who was running towards the exit into its mouth, and then disappeared into the flames again.

Or perhaps they were suddenly grabbed by the limbs by the undead and pulled against the wall, gradually being assimilated by the bones. Screams rang out one after another, and none of those who ran towards the only exit survived.

The Lord of the Undead, who had done all this, just sat on the throne in mid-air. His eyes, which were burning like flames, did not seem to have any extra emotions because of the deaths of those people.

“Begin. Kill these people who guard justice. Then one of you who harbor evil will survive and receive a reward from me. You will have even greater strength and the ability to control death.”

The Lord of the Undead opened his hands, and a gem slowly floated out from his hands, emitting charming light. At the same time, a pure power was constantly spreading outward. At the top of this space, there was a chain composed of skeleton arms, which stretched out quickly. Four chain-like brackets held the gem in the palm of his hand.

“Whoever gets this gem can leave here. I don’t care what method you use, whether you use your own power to conquer by force or use conspiracy and trickery to finally take this gem. It has nothing to do with me. Become my knight and chant the name of Arthur, the Lord of the Dead!”

The Lord of the Dead stood up, turned around and disappeared from the area. His mission had been completed. The next step was to wait for these guys to get the gems and become the new Knights of the Round Table. He didn’t have time to continue wasting time here with these guys. Now he needed to go to the location of another prison. After all, he still had ten gems in his hand waiting for their owners.

Although the Lord of the Undead had left, the undead that continued to emerge from the wall showed no signs of disappearing. They were like monitors watching the upcoming battle, making everyone present dare not go against what the Lord of the Undead had said before.

Chapter 263: Sinner, that’s it!

The battle is full of blood and cruel.

The people who had agreed to work together would betray them, or they would take the initiative to attack. In short, blood was spilled all over the underground space. During this period, some people tried to secretly take away the gems, but they could not resist the pollution brought by the gems inside, and thus turned into beast-like existence.

Just like the Roman Colosseum, the weak will be eliminated, the unqualified will be eliminated, those who blindly trust others will be eliminated, those who are unlucky will be eliminated, and those whose ambitions are greater than their abilities will also be eliminated.

The one chosen in the end was definitely a lone wolf.

Stepping on blood and corpses, under the gaze of many undead spirits, a strong man with a broken arm slowly gathered the diamond armor he created using his ability into his body. If it were not for this diamond-like defense, he would have lost more than just his arm in the melee.

A man lying on the ground raised his hand and grabbed the ankle of the sturdy man. The man on the ground slowly opened his mouth, and his snake-like teeth popped out. Unfortunately, before the fangs could bite his leg, a simple diamond spear fell from top to bottom under the control of the sturdy man.

The sound of bones being pierced by diamonds echoed in this almost empty space. The people hiding now were probably hoping that someone would get the gem and give them a chance to sneak away.

The sturdy man just shook his head. How could he give them this opportunity when there were skeletons all over the space and the wandering undead? After he obtained this gem and left here, those hidden beings would be dragged into another world.

The sturdy man walked forward a few steps, bent down, and picked up the gem on the ground in his hand. The gem exuded powerful power and turned directly into liquid, pouring into the sturdy man’s palm, and then directly into the sturdy man’s heart. A severe pain came from the heart, as if the heart was torn apart.

The yellow-green flame enveloped the strong man’s body, and the dirty flame continued to corrode the strong man’s flesh and blood like mucus. The originally strong body gradually rotted under the corrosion of the flame, revealing the bones, but at the same time, the power of the diamond was constantly activated and covered the bones.

The rotten flesh gradually turned into a metal-like substance, like armor. The arm that was originally lost in the battle was transformed into a uniquely shaped prosthetic limb under the interaction of the diamonds and these corrosive liquids.

When the foul flames dissipated, the sturdy man’s condition had become no different from those undead creatures. He looked at his own reflection, the skull-like face, and the uniquely shaped helmet and armor from the yellow-green diamonds that made up his strange arms.
