Chapter Twenty-Four: The City of the Wrongfully Dead
ly then giving him a deputy generalLu Cheng felt that he should be the leader of the Qishan Allied Forces. He should discuss with King Zhou, abandon the attack on Chaoge, and march west, crushing Trel...Lu Cheng quickly made up his mind, he had to go in no matter whether it was early or late. Writing this, I hope the readers remember our domain name
The enemy's forces are deeply rooted and incredibly powerful.
Master-level backstage dealers should, in theory, be the imperial relatives of the Heavenly Saint Empire.
It was that time that made Lu Cheng realize a truth, even a Duel Master was still far from enough.
I don't want to be the top dog, but I have to beat them. There is no one above!
He didn't hesitate, pouring a thread of energy into the black card.
.......
When he woke up again, Lu Cheng was in a state of confusion. Before him were hundreds of floating cards. Could this be winning the lottery
A voice came from the chaos.
Draw a card to decide your path. Once the card is flipped, you will have one chance to choose again.
Lu Cheng's mouth twitched, " Tch, I thought you were taking it away. Turns out it was just a blocked path. Cheapskate."
Let's decide the path with cards, a love river crossing on the west bank for newbies!
The cards in front of him looked identical, their surfaces blank. Lu Cheng knew that once he chose one, its content would appear.
Then just pick any one
Li Chengzheng is about to take out a card.
and so on...
He suddenly discovered that one of them had content on it.
Come closer and take a good look.
On the river bank, the noodles churned violently. Willow trees swayed beside the river.
Isn't this scene just like myself fishing and encountering the red-clothed woman on the west bank of the River Styx
Suddenly, an introduction popped into my mind.
On the west bank of the Naihe River, on an unnamed shore, it has been conquered but not yet claimed. There are no remaining encounters.
This is really this place.
What would be the consequences if you chose this card
Will you go to the west bank of the Naihe River again
Lu carefully studied the completed card.
I thought "possession" was two characters, but it's actually a domain card
My own auxiliary card [Ghost Carp Tank] is already very powerful, wouldn't it be amazing to use this area as a domain card and plant trees and raise fish within it, gradually building it up
And I guess no one would want an unnamed beach, right
Just as I thought of this, I received a prompt.
To possess this card, you need 10 currency (paper money) and must own the "Patrol River Ghost Soldier" or higher rank official transformation card from the Underworld.
【Ghostly River Guardians】
Wait a minute
Lu Cheng seemed to understand.
The ranks of officials in the Underworld should be a series of transformation cards along a path, from [Ghost] upwards, completing tasks and promotions. There are many giant secret realms outside that work this way as well.
This paper money...
Could Tang family sisters or Lei Fatty burn some for me
After all, I've only met these teammates on the surface....
Bah! What noodles! I'm not dead yet!
And they don't recognize paper money either.
Now it's impossible to buy land.
It's too little to gain by going to the West Bank of the River Naihe after you have lost everything.
Just pick a new one, there's still another chance to make amends anyway. No worries.
Just do it.
Lu Cheng randomly picked up a card, and in an instant, the card in his hand burst with light.
You pulled the legendary card · Dragonfall!
The first emperor of all ages ultimately failed to achieve immortality. After the death of the ancestor dragon, he went to the afterlife to pursue the immortal way, but his obsession still lingered in Youdu, commanding the Qin terracotta warriors to wander on the battlefield of the underworld, turning it into a military disaster... It is rumored that there is a sword named "Falling Dragon" on Beiyin Mountain. Dare you draw it and strike it down
Hey brother, this script is too intense, I'm gonna pull your grandpa in! Is this something a white card master could do
This job is for Jing Ke!
Furthermore, Qin Shi Huang himself was reincarnated as a cultivator and left, failing to manage his subordinates. It's like he left it all for them to clean up.
Lu Cheng was quite envious of the Falling Dragon Sword. At first glance, it looked like a legendary weapon card. If he used it to forge something new, it would be both handsome and match his own temperament.
Unfortunately, I don't know where Bēiyīnshān is.
There is no grass on the mountain, no peak reaching the sky, no way for guests to travel through the ridge, no cave to hold clouds, and no stream flowing water!
Lu Cheng didn't think twice and just sent the rumored picture back.
This is a dead end, wanting promotion and wealth to ease the worries of the underworld isn't going there to solve problems, who would go there Who would be foolish enough.
Come on, one more time. I'm usually pretty lucky, I can't be this unlucky, right
You drew the location card: Wasteland on the outskirts of the city!
Upon first arrival at the City of Unliving, you are already a soul among the dead. This day, you have come to the outskirts of the City of Unliving...
No, wait!
That's not much better either!
......
As soon as he closed his eyes and opened them again, Lu Cheng woke up.
Although he knew some things about the city of the dead.
It is rumored that those who die unjustly will be gathered at the Gate of the Unjust City after death, where they will be held captive until their predetermined lifespan ends.
For example, if someone's destiny was to live to ninety years old but they died unexpectedly at forty, they would be sent to the City of Wrongful Death after their passing and remain there until they reached ninety.
The souls in the City of the Damned can live like people in the mortal world, but their freedom of movement is strictly controlled.
They are unable to receive offerings of paper money and paper goods burned by living relatives for the deceased, nor can they return to the mortal world during the Hungry Ghost Festival like other souls to receive offerings from their living relatives. All money and goods burned for these souls will be temporarily confiscated.
On the city wall there stood a platform for observing fates, and every day, the souls of the deceased would ascend the city walls to gaze upon it. They were checking if those who had murdered them had received their due retribution.
Until these souls witness in the Hall of Souls' Judgement, with their own eyes, those who murdered them receiving due retribution, and only when their resentment is appeased, can they, on the Day of Release, be reborn into a new life based on their past deeds, being rewarded or punished accordingly.
As soon as Lu Cheng heard that he had drawn the Wanshen City, his first reaction was, "That [Wishing Platform] must be a great card! How can I take it apart and bring it away!"
Wait a moment....
How come it's pitch black all around
It's good that I was well-prepared.
Lu Cheng took out a card he had bought online: "DIY Torch".
Let me know if you have any other text you'd like me to translate!
A hand moved, but the expected light did not arrive. The flame flickered to life for just a moment before dying out.
His eyebrows furrowed.
What's going on
The smell of decay wafted into my nose, it wasn't pleasant.
Lu Cheng felt the dampness around him, and the heavy presence of yin energy. It was no wonder that ordinary fire wouldn't burn.
Most of humanity's perception of the outside world comes from sight.
In the dark environment, Lu Cheng dared not move rashly for the time being.
He drew out the 【Wooden Spear (Willow of Souls)】 and immediately summoned the 【Bride Girl】.
"Girl, do you have a third eye Can you see if there's anything dirty around here... thank you." Lu Cheng said softly.
Wedding Dress: "........"
Wait, she's just like the dirty thing she said!
That's okay.
Lu Cheng just wanted to use the tip of his spear to probe the road a little.
A bolt of thunder suddenly cracked, illuminating the surroundings in an instant.
For a moment, the light illuminated everything, and Lu Cheng saw clearly. It seemed to be a dilapidated courtyard.
And before there was a small cottage, its door tightly closed.
Light vanished quickly, and darkness returned once more.
What place is this, why isn't there even a glimmer of light
And this little house, to go in
Lu Cheng is now considering whether to let the wedding dress go in first and take a look
He hadn't reacted yet when another bolt of lightning cracked.
This time, Lu Cheng saw clearly.
The door that I just closed is now open.
Discovery of a Secret Realm: The Suburbs of Wángsǐ City, Haunted House
Belongs to expansion pack: Eastern Mythology - Youdu
You can discover 2 cards.
The door that stands open before you seems to be an invitation from the owner, but perhaps he simply wants to step outside and greet you...a severe disadvantage when facing the Great Wall's trench fortifications, their frenzied advance did have some effect. At the cost of half their own troops, they managed to save one critically wounded...
