Full-Time Magister: Throne of Dimensions

Chapter 43 Everyone Died

"Senior, help me!!!"

Tang Chao, who was fighting the corpse general, was instantly attracted by the shouts. He turned around and almost fainted from anger. On his way back, he was unknowingly surrounded by undead. They bared their teeth and claws and roared as they rushed towards him.

"Damn it!" Tang Chao cursed angrily. In the beginning, even mid-level mages were no match for the Corpse General. They could only barely defend against the Corpse General's attacks and occasionally launch counterattacks. After fighting for so long, they had only moved a little distance. They had planned to slowly sneak back or wait for someone on the city wall to notice them and come to their aid, but now their path was blocked.

Tang Chao's gaze was not on the group of servant-level undead; he noticed a hunched corpse general, and a person surnamed Ren was fighting against this corpse general.

This relieved him. Thank goodness, he had a reliable freshman; otherwise, he would have been in real trouble.

"Go and wipe out those undead and clear a path," Tang Chao said quickly. Fighting against the corpse generals was no easy task; they had to concentrate.

The corpse general flew over, but a radiant aura blocked it.

"No, there are too many undead. We can't fight them at all."

"Yeah, yeah, senior, why don't you just give them a powerful punch? These newbies can't withstand your mid-level magic."

"Yes, yes, senior, you should take action." The newcomers chimed in, but no one wanted to fight the undead.

It wasn't that they didn't want to go, but there were just too many dead souls. Going there would only mean death, and they didn't want to die.

These people are really annoying. The admission standards for the ancient capital academy are getting lower and lower. They think they can just unleash their Fierce Fist without warning, as if the Corpse General doesn't exist? Tang Chao shouted impatiently, "Go when I tell you to! Stop talking nonsense! If you don't go, you can just wait to die."

Tang Chao's shout caused some of the more vulnerable girls to burst into tears instantly, crying and sobbing, saying things like, "You're the one who called us here, you promised to guarantee our safety."

This group of talented people.

Instead of fighting the undead, they just stood there crying. I don't know what they've learned in three years.

Tang Chao moved closer to the money bag and whispered, "Old Qian, if things don't look good, we have to leave. We can't leave here to die."

"OK," Qian Dai agreed, as he had been thinking the same thing.

Seeing that the Tang Dynasty was ignoring them, the new students had no choice but to spontaneously organize themselves to fight against the undead. They reasoned that if they resisted, they might have a chance to survive, but if they didn't, they would still die.

On the other side, Su Ming was being overwhelmed by the Corpse General. His barrier was shattered, and his Void Claws couldn't catch him. Xiao Qing's tornadoes couldn't move the Corpse General, and her wind blades could only cause minor damage. During this time, Su Ming also witnessed Xiao Qing's new attack methods.

By gathering the wind together to form a spear, the damage is high, and it does pierce through the corpse's body, but its usefulness is not great, as the undead are not like other demons.

Other demons might die if their bodies were pierced, but the undead won't. Unless the undead crystal is shattered, or the undead's entire body is destroyed and the crystal is taken, the undead will not die.

Xiaoqing was clearly unaware of this, and blindly pricked herself, exhausting herself but achieving little effect.

They managed to stop the Corpse General, but his abilities were limited. The Tang Dynasty would have to rely on themselves.

Suddenly, a scream changed the situation instantly.

Gong Jian, who was originally intended to stop another corpse general, lost. He and the corpse general were both seriously injured. The corpse general's body was mostly broken, but Gong Jian was clearly more severely injured. His arm was completely torn off, and blood dripped out, but it was not red blood, but black blood.

This is a toxin naturally present in the body of the undead. If it is not treated in time, it can be fatal. Now that the toxin has taken effect, Gong Jian feels dizzy and lightheaded, and he is about to lose his ability to fight.

I'm going to die here.

"Money bag, Tang Dynasty, save me!!!!" Gong Jian roared. He didn't want to die, and he didn't want to die in a meaningless way. He originally just intended to stop it, but this corpse general was fighting too desperately. He didn't have many means of defense and could only passively take the beating. Now he had completely lost the ability to resist.

The figure of the corpse general appeared in his eyes. Gong Jian raised his head slightly and saw that disgusting face, without complete features, only rotting flesh and bones.

"I'm going to die!" Gong Jian murmured.

puff...

The corpse general reached out and struck the palace arrow. After a loud bang, the headless corpse of the palace arrow lay down, raising a cloud of dust.

The corpse stood still for a while, then suddenly let out a piercing roar, ignoring its own injuries, and charged into the crowd to wipe them all out.

"Retreat!!" Tang Chao shouted at the top of his lungs, directly bypassing the Corpse General, who was heading towards the freshmen. He could use this time to escape.

Qianbao had his eyes already on him. In fact, he started moving even before Tang Chao shouted, and ran back quickly.

"You beasts! You two beasts!!!"

"I curse you both! May you both die a horrible death! May you both die a horrible death!!"

"Grass!!!!!!!!!!!"

The Tang Dynasty's escape shattered their hopes. They were already no match for the undead, and now the arrival of two corpse generals brought despair. Some even gave up resistance, sitting helplessly on the ground, waiting for death to come.

Some people angrily cursed the Tang Dynasty and the money bag, but it was all meaningless, because they were going to die, and what meaning would anything have after they died?

No, it's all meaningless now.

Some people are unwilling to die and try to run away, but can they outrun the corpse general?

Obviously not. Those who are still alive can even see the scene of the escaped trainee's heart being pierced by the corpse.

All of them are going to die.

……

"Xiao Qing, let's go." Su Ming had been observing the movements of Tang Chao, and he shouted the moment Tang Chao fled.

Xiaoqing passed through the dimensional gate and used the wind to lift Su Ming away.

The corpse general still wanted to kill her, but the final blow was blocked by Su Ming's barrier, so it was a close call.

Having lost its target, the corpse general shifted its gaze. She looked at the besieged crowd, then at Yi Tangchao and the money bag, who were getting closer and closer to the corpse general.

The corpses chose them as their targets.

The corpse flew out like a phantom. Even though the Tang Dynasty was prepared, they still suffered a loss. The left shoulder was pierced, revealing a large hole, and the arm fell off by itself.

Tang Chao bit his own arm, condensing a Fire Burst, and used the impact of the explosion to take himself away.

After rolling around twice, Tang Chao stopped and cautiously looked around. Only after confirming that there were no undead spirits did he breathe a slight sigh of relief.

Tang Chao was lucky enough to survive, but Qian Dai was not so fortunate. Qian Dai was not far from Tang Chao, and the thick fog produced by the fire blurred his vision. Qian Dai condensed a radiant light that was still in the sky.

The radiance dispelled the gray mist, and the money bag was also approached by the corpse general. The distance was too close, and he had not yet recovered from the magic he had just released, so he had little ability to resist.

"Ice Vine..."

The money bag shouted desperately, but to no avail. The corpse general was exceptionally powerful, and the ice vines had no effect whatsoever.

The money bag was instantly dismembered, making Su Ming's scalp tingle.

"You're really lucky; only the two of us survived this time." Tang Chao chuckled self-deprecatingly and turned to walk into the wall.

The dead rarely roam during the day; once there are no living people around, they return to lie down in the ground.

Tang Chao was in a hurry. He was holding his arm, which was still poisoned. He needed to treat it as soon as possible, or he would be in big trouble.

At best, he would need two months of rest; at worst, he might lose his cultivation or even his life. Although he had escaped the crisis of the undead, he still needed to race against time.

Su Ming glanced outside and saw that the group of undead had all gone back to their original positions; there was no one left there, they were all dead.

How many people came?

There were more than thirty, but now only two are left.

Everyone says they come to hunt demons, but I never expected to be hunted by demons. This feeling is terrible.

"Brother, are you alright? I was so worried! I found a military sorcerer. Has my brother returned yet? Do we need to go and rescue him?" Tang Shan ran over at this moment, accompanied by several people dressed as military sorcerers.

Their expressions were serious; they had never expected that hunting a few undead at the Ancient Capital Academy would go wrong, as they had almost never encountered anything like it before.

Oh... not two, three survived.

Su Ming shook his head and said, "No need."

"That's great! I knew my brother was reliable." Tang Shan breathed a sigh of relief and said happily, "Is my brother still outside? I'll go check if anyone is hurt. I'll give them a quick first aid."

As Tang Shan was about to leave, Su Ming grabbed him and said to the others, "There's no need to go out. Your brother is injured and should be receiving treatment at the hospital. As for the others..."

"Everyone except me is dead. Those two named Qian Dai and Gong Jian are also dead. No one survived."

ha??????
