But when he thought about killing such a genius, harvesting her soul, and offering it as a sacrifice to the God of Death in exchange for immense rewards, his temptation grew even

stronger.

The God of Death was different from the evil gods. The deity truly granted him items.

Yes, the God of Death was an evil deity, but the price demanded was small, and the transactions were fair.

Who would have thought Viola and her fools would fail to take down Joanna, even with so many people?

Not only that, Joanna had gone on to shine brilliantly in the Decennial Tournament.

After that incident, Morgan was stripped of his identity by the Space Alliance System and became a wanted criminal.

He immediately fled to the Deadwhisper Continent and begged the God of Death to transform him into an undead, allowing him to evade the Alliance’s pursuit.

In the blink of an eye, three years had passed.

He watched as Joanna became the Space Alliance’s top prodigy, as her teacher Helen ascended to godhood, as she slew gods of countless races, graduated from the Divine and Demonic Academy, and built the Nightstar Group.

Then, she started the Resurrection Temple project, killed Nyssara, and cleared a Mythical dungeon.

All of her achievements filled Morgan with fear.

“Others might not know, but I do, Joanna holds grudges. She wanted to kill Viola, but Viola was a follower of Nyssara, and she was capable of infinite resurrection and countless clones.

“So she killed Nyssara instead,

“A person like that is schemeful, and her methods are terrifying.

“If this continues, how many more years can I stay hidden?”

Regret!

If he had resisted temptation back then and continued his infiltration at the Divine and Demonic Academy, things would be different. Later on, he could have claimed he was Joanna’s

instructor. Just that connection alone would have been enough for him to boast for years.

But now? He lived in constant fear.

Just then, he suddenly sensed that one of the skeletons he had buried near the rift had been destroyed.

His expression changed instantly.

“No one should ever pass through that area. Who triggered my trap? Or did someone arrive?

He summoned the soul.

But the skeleton had only a wisp of its soul remaining, so it moved extremely slowly.

It drifted for a long time before finally reaching Morgan.

Then an image appeared.

The final ten seconds before death.

A breathtakingly beautiful figure struck the skeleton with a whip.

The nightmare of the past three years had appeared.

Boom!

Morgan shot to his feet.

“I can’t just sit here waiting to die! I must pray to the God of Death and inform Him that someone has come to kill Him. These people will slaughter this entire world.”

Inside the tavern.

The adventurers suddenly shouted,

“Are you joking? Don’t you recognize him? Who exactly are you people?”

Everyone raised their weapons and pointed them at Joanna.

Joanna remained completely calm.

“If I called him a lackey of the God of Death, then obviously I’m not on the same side as him. Or does he hold some great status now?”

A mage suddenly widened his eyes and shouted. “The prophecy! Don’t forget the prophecy! When a summoner arrives seeking the Lich King, humanity’s order will return, light will descend, and the Sacred Flame will reclaim its place!”

“But she’s clearly a mage!”

“The one hundred gold coins are mine! I’ll tell you where he is! He’s in the Lich Castle on the Ridge of Stillness. He’s Lich King Morgan!” shouted a mischievous assassin girl.

“Everyone already knows that.”

Joanna tossed the gold coin to the assassin girl.

“I have plenty more gold. I need detailed information.”

She scattered a handful of coins across the floor.

At the same time, she pushed another pile of coins toward the tavern owner.

“Drinks for everyone.”

The atmosphere in the tavern instantly heated up.

Stimulated by the gold, the adventurers finally spoke freely.

“Lich King Morgan appeared three years ago and seized the highest castle on the Ridge of Stillness.

“He commands tens of thousands of undead. He can unleash an undead plague.

“He wiped out seven cities. The Ridge of Stillness used to be the most prosperous royal capital, but now it’s buried under countless corpses.

“Worst of all, he can control the undead mist, turning the entire region into a domain of death.”

It seemed that after leaving the Decennial Universe Plane, Morgan had come here and built quite the “legacy.”

But did he not realize that the fewer humans there were on a plane, the easier it was for the Space Alliance to detect it?

It was a kind of human survival instinct, which was similar to prayer.

For example, when an apocalyptic disaster strikes, wouldn’t someone pray in their heart for the arrival of a god?

“Please save us! Otherwise, humanity will go

extinct!”

“Is this truly the end of the world for mankind?”

“Please save my child!”

Such prayers were also a form of faith power. When enough accumulated, the Space Alliance could detect the signal, lock onto the plane, and initiate a rescue operation.

At Morgan’s level, he should have known this.

Yet he had no choice but to do it. The only explanation was that the God of Death had commanded it.

Or perhaps he himself needed that

power.

Morgan’s strength now was probably at the pseudo-mythic level.

But Joanna was not afraid.

Back when she was only an intermediate professional, she had dared to fight Vincent and the others. Now she was an advanced professional.
