Night Knight!
This is a summoned beast that Asha'ruya summoned.
Moreover, these are not summoned beasts from ordinary planes, but creatures from the dark plane.
Su Lan wasn't surprised at all when he saw Asha Ruya summon the Night Knight.
After all, Asha's connection with the Dark Dimension is very deep, so it's quite normal for her to be able to summon Night Knights.
After the first wave of undead was killed, the effects of the Grey Garlic began to take effect, and the undead stopped being aggressive towards them.
Led by the short man, the group hurried to the designated shelter.
Midway through, they looked at Su Lan, who had a lightsaber floating above her head and had not been attacked by any undead or eaten any gray garlic, their eyes filled with envy.
They had already seen the lightsaber released by Su Lan and the other person during the battle.
The short man and the strong man might not know.
Asha's deep knowledge of magic allowed her to see many of the intricacies of it.
The main structure of a lightsaber is light-based magic energy, which can be used at will to slay demons. It also utilizes spatial telekinesis, requiring strong mental control.
Both of these abilities require high-level or even super-level mages to master.
Looking at the unremarkable woman beside Su Lan, Asharuya assessed the woman's combat strength as approaching that of a super-class mage.
As for the reason, it was naturally because the Tobirama sword instantly killed a commander-level corpse minister who was about to awaken.
Such terrifying strength is definitely not something a high-level cultivator could achieve.
It's something that at least a high-level mage couldn't do.
Taking advantage of the darkness, the group tried their best to avoid the awakened spirits along the way. As they looked at the shelter they were about to reach, their expressions relaxed slightly.
Just then, lightning flashed and thunder roared across the reddish-gray sky, with deafening claps echoing through the heavens.
Several bolts of lightning struck in succession, even hitting several undead. The ultra-high voltage current flowed through the undead's bodies, melting and burning them into ashes.
Seeing the sudden lightning and thunder, both Asha and her two companions, as well as the short and strong man, frowned.
It's that time of year again when the ancient capital experiences extreme weather.
The short man was a little confused. He had checked the weather forecast before setting off, and it was predicted that the weather would be cloudy for the next two days, with no rain or thunderstorms. How could the weather have turned so uncooperative by evening?
"Sigh, I hope nothing goes wrong. This awful weather is really scary."
The short man muttered to himself, quickly putting the matter out of his mind.
Because not far away, there is a gate embedded in a small cliff.
This is precisely the safe resting place that the ancient capital set up for hunters or others who could not leave the undead wilderness in time, so that they could live safely until the next day when the undead slumber without risking fighting against the undead army.
As everyone pushed open the small door and filed in, a torrential downpour immediately began outside.
Upon entering the shelter, the short man skillfully lit the lamp.
As lamps fueled by the energy contained in the magic ore lit up one by one, the interior structure of the shelter was revealed to everyone.
This is a hall covering hundreds of square meters. The floor, walls and ceiling are not made of soil, but are rectangular interior spaces made of cement mixed with solid minerals.
The advantage of this is that the walls are strong enough to prevent undead from emerging from the soft soil.
Moreover, Su Lan noticed a peculiar smell in the air of the shelter as soon as she entered.
This smell is extremely common in ancient capitals.
That's powder that humans use to drive away the dead.
Although most undead have no sense of smell, the gas produced by this powder makes them uncomfortable and drives them away from the area filled with the smell.
"We have been to this shelter dozens of times, and each time we have been able to get through safely without being attacked by the undead."
"The ancient city wilderness is extremely dangerous at night. We will rest here until dawn and wait for the spirits of the dead to fall asleep again before continuing our journey."
"If you want to continue your journey and set off before dawn, we won't stop you, but the guide fee will not be refunded."
The short man mumbled a few words, mentioning some precautions.
These were mainly being listened to by Asha and the other two, while Su Lan and Serafina had already taken out the tent from their storage space and set it up in less than a minute.
Asharuya turned her head and saw that Su Lan had already set up the tent and was even starting a fire in front of it.
As the items kept appearing, Asha and the others were dumbfounded.
Good heavens!
You've come here to camp in what is clearly a dangerous wilderness of the dead?
With so much stuff, it's no longer an ordinary spatial storage magic tool.
This is a storage space created using spatial magic.
This is a small space that even high-level mages cannot create.
After Su Lan set up the tent and started a fire, Asha's two attendants quickly took out the tent, food, and firewood from their spatial magical artifacts and began to pack up just like Su Lan had done.
Soon, three flames lit up in the somewhat empty shelter space, and the crackling sound of the burning firewood created a natural symphony in the shelter space.
At this moment, the burly man pulled out a packet of powder from somewhere, went to the entrance of the passage, and began to lightly sprinkle it on the ground.
The short man explained to the people looking at him.
"This is a powder mixed with gray garlic to repel the dead. We usually take extra precautions when we stay here overnight."
After saying this, the burly man took out several infrared instruments from his backpack and formed a dense three-dimensional infrared network at the entrance of the passage.
Whenever a spirit crosses this area, it will trigger an alarm.
The short man and the strong man did these things and gained the approval of Asha's two attendants.
Su Lan and Serafina simply watched from beginning to end, without saying a word, but they were actually communicating telepathically.
"Serafina, have you deciphered the secret of the fallen angel soul within Azharia?"
At that moment, Su Lan felt a small hand pinch her waist.
The owner of the little hand didn't use much force; instead, Su Lan tickled it a little.
"It won't be that fast. After all, it's inside the other person's body, so it will take a while to analyze it."
"Father God, I have completely analyzed the principles of the angel soul embryo in the Holy City, and the construction progress of the alien soul embryo of the alien race has reached one-third."
"It's just that the angelic soul embryo in the Holy City has some major flaws and many shortcomings. I need to try and repair it, which may take some time."
"Fortunately, this fallen angel soul embryo can give me some inspiration, which can speed things up a bit."
Hearing Serafina say that the construction of the alien soul embryo could begin soon, Su Lan was very satisfied.
During their previous discussion about the structure of angel soul embryos, Seraphia mentioned that after optimizing and localizing angel soul embryos, it would be possible to create alien soul embryos that could elevate a person's strength to the level of an emperor.
This alien soul embryo can be used not only by alien girls, but also by humans.
When the alien soul embryo is fully formed, it will have the effect that Su Lan urgently needs in the future.
