he entire scene.The faces of the guests present turned pale, and they all felt a tightness in their chests. Many even trembled in their legs, almost collapsing to the ground.Today, the Zheng family is...Fang Yu turned his head and looked at Violet.
At this moment, violet's eyes were also filled with confusion and bewilderment.
This is Dr. Gary's power core collection base, not many people know about it.
Who came here and slaughtered everyone at the base, taking all the core power sources with them
A moment later, Violet, Fangyu, and Bai Ran arrived at the base's monitoring room.
Violet walked up to one of the computers and, with a few keystrokes, brought up the entire base's surveillance footage.
"Rewind the event to forty minutes ago." Fang Yu said.
Violet pressed the keyboard.
Soon, the security footage from all locations within the base was rewound to forty minutes prior and displayed on the monitors in a 16-panel grid.
At this point in time, all sixteen security camera feeds showed personnel present, clearly indicating that the base was still functioning normally at this time with no apparent incidents occurring.
Violet pressed fast forward, and the picture sped up.
Five minutes in, several shots show a strange large figure!
Violet immediately pressed pause.
The monitor screens show three CCTV cameras focused on the entrance of the base. From three different angles, we can see a figure that is approximately three meters tall.
He wore a black robe, his head bowed, concealing his features.
On the contrary, it was the person walking beside this figure, both their physique and features were clearly visible.
It was Doctor Gary, whom both Fang Yu and Violet had met a few times.
Violet pressed the play button again, letting the recording continue at normal speed.
Thus, one could see that in the picture, Dr. Gary was smiling broadly and speaking to a gigantic figure beside him.
< They chatted as they walked forward. >
As they passed through the corridor, the two of them encountered four base personnel dressed in white coats.
At this moment, Gary and the figure beside him stopped, as if talking to each other.
He smiled and nodded.
Then, two figures continued walking forward.
At this time, only one surveillance camera could capture the images of these two figures.
And from this security camera's angle, you can see the two people walking straight ahead, passing by those four base personnel.
The next scene caused both Violet and Bai Ran's faces to change.
As the massive figure approached, the four base personnel suddenly vanished!
At least on screen, these four personnel in conspicuous white uniforms just vanished into thin air!
What's going on!
At this time, the recording is still ongoing.
Gary and the figure beside him walked on as if nothing had happened.
But where the four base personnel had been standing, there was now a pool of blood and several small fragments of remains.
"How could this be..." Bai Ran widened his eyes, unable to help but ask.
"Let's replay that shot, slow motion." Fang Yu said.
Violet did as instructed.
Moments later, the footage rewound to thirty seconds prior.
Gary and that enormous figure walked on.
When passing the four base personnel, their speed was reduced to one quarter of its original rate.
Thus, frame by frame, one could see the four base personnel... being drawn by some kind of force at that instant, flying towards the gigantic figure at incredible speed.
And then they just flew into the figure's abdomen... and disappeared.
As for the blood on the ground, it was splattered there in an instant when they flew into the figure’s abdomen… including those few chunks of flesh.
"These people were sucked into that figure's body" Bai Ran said, his eyes full of horror.
"To be precise, it was devoured," Fang Yu said. "This monster is probably Gary's latest research project."
"No...no, it's not." Violet stared intently at the screen, fear flickering in her violet eyes.
Seeing that Viola wore such an expression, Fang Yu's eyes flickered slightly as he asked, "Do you know what this is"
"This... is a member of the Necromancer race!" Violet stared at the figure on the monitor, her voice trembling with fear.
"The undead"
Upon hearing this name, Fang Yu's brows furrowed.
About the description of the Necromancer race, he had seen it in an ancient book that introduced various alien races.
In that book, the undead are described as a wicked race that grows stronger by consuming flesh and blood, but they have long since been extinct and no longer appear.
This sounds a bit like the Immortals who tried to take over the land not too long ago.
However, the Immortal Clan kills only for conquest, to satisfy their bloodlust. The Death Spirit Clan, on the other hand, consumes flesh and blood to grow stronger, to survive.
In this fundamental aspect, they are vastly different.
If the undead race that Violet mentioned is the same as the one described in the book...
"Do you know anything about the Necromancers" Fang Yu asked Violet.
Violet turned her head and looked at Fang Yu, her face pale.
As for Violet, Fang Yu found it hard to imagine the fear and panic simultaneously appearing on her face.
But now, Violet is like this.
She breathed heavily, her eyes wide open, as if recalling something terrifying.
"The Necromancer... in the Western Regions, they are the most infamous demonic race in history." Violet said softly. "About four hundred years ago, that was when the Necromancers were at their most rampant. They went around killing indiscriminately, causing widespread panic in the Western Regions... To counter the Necromancers, all factions in the Western Regions put aside their differences and united. Each sent their strongest forces to form the most powerful team the Western Regions had ever seen, to launch a counter-offensive against the Necromancers."
This struggle lasted for almost three hundred years. During this time, the united teams from Xiwu, due to their numerical superiority, were able to win most battles, but they were always hard-fought victories... In short, over these three hundred years, the Necromancer race gradually weakened.
"Until a hundred years ago, a team discovered the necromancer's lair and launched a full-scale assault. After that attack, the entire necromancer nest was destroyed, and the whole Western Regions rejoiced, believing that the necromancers were extinct."
"You mean, the undead race didn't actually go extinct!" Bai Ran asked.
Lilac glanced at Bai Ran and nodded, saying: "Over the past hundred years, there have still been reports of undead appearing from time to time...and every time, a team has been formed to exterminate them. In the last fifty years, the frequency of undead appearances has been decreasing."
"So it seems the Necromancers won't be able to cause much of a stir, then." Bai Ran said.
Fang Yu looked at Violet, without saying a word.
Since Lavender is so afraid, it means she must have had firsthand contact with the undead.
Twenty-two years ago, I was still a mercenary in the Western Regions... Once our guild received a task and dispatched thirty elite members to carry it out... However, on the way to the mission location, we encountered two undead.
At this point, Violet took a deep breath and rubbed her forehead with her left hand.
What happened that day was her worst nightmare… Even today, with her immense power, she can't forget the terror she felt.
She was very young at the time and had not yet obtained that energy core.
But the union president was very optimistic about her, so he let her participate in that mission which she had no connection to.
In the evening of that day, a team of thirty people needed to pass through a forest.
Because the task was quite urgent, the team didn't stop to rest but marched straight through, hoping to cross the forest as quickly as possible.
But just as the team entered the depths of the forest, an accident happened.
Two undead creatures suddenly leaped from the shadowy gaps between the trees!
Violet still vividly remembers, to this day, the appearance of those two undead!
A face...condensed from the black air like a skeleton…pitch-black eye sockets.
They have no limbs, their entire bodies hovering in the air like ghosts.
After the appearance of the undead, this team of thirty immediately fell into disarray!
For anyone who has lived in the Western Regions for a while, no one knows the terror of the undead race!ween their words, a purple light flickered across the five-pointed star mark on Fang Yu's left hand."Wow!"Fang Yu's entire left arm was enveloped by this energy!An overwhelmingly domineering aura inst...
