Me! Zombie! Summoned to Another World!

Chapter 26: Danger In The Night, Infiltrating The Goblin Stone Mountain!

At first, I thought it was just my imagination.

But after that, when I couldn't find the 'thread' in my heart no matter how hard I tried, I knew that the knight King had indeed sacrificed himself.

Even though I had already expected it when I asked him to take the rear but, I still found myself unable to accept it when I received this terrible news.

Although the Knight King wasn't the first undead I owned, he was the one who had stayed by my side the longest.

Not only was he the first powerful undead I owned, he was also the first undead I experimented with.

He was also the one who started it. When I was creating undead, I thought of fusing different species and powers...

When I was creating the lich assistant, Regulus, I used the Knight King to hunt all the materials.

Whether it was the little night goblin in the beginning, the swamp python, or the mountain goblin in the end.

I rode the knight King to hunt for each of the materials.

But now, he sacrificed himself.

He sacrificed himself in order to protect me from the magister of light.

But I didn't have time to stop and express my sadness for him.

Because I wasn't truly out of danger yet.

Even if the magister of light didn't chase after me anymore, I knew that there were many dangers lurking in the forest near the battlefield of the gods.

If I wasn't careful, me, the necromancer who didn't have any undead around him, would be in danger.

I had to quickly return to Regulus' side. He was now my only undead.

My current safety was completely dependent on him.

Only by running to his side would I be able to say that I was safe, and only then would I feel slightly safer.

After running for nearly an hour without daring to rest, I finally reached the Stone Mountain where Regulus had been placed.

"Kacha... Kacha..."

I panted heavily as I looked at Regulus, who was still standing there with a dull expression.

Suddenly, I turned around to look at the direction of the wooden house behind me.

'Knight King, don't worry. I'll definitely find an opportunity to avenge you...'

I then looked at the sky and realized that it was almost dark.

This made me frown.

I had been living here for almost a month.

Knowing that this place was close to the battlefield of the gods, there would be all kinds of dangerous animals at night. Even with Regulus protecting me, it wouldn't be safe.

The loud roar I heard in the night a few days ago was proof of that.

Therefore, it wasn't a wise choice to spend the night outside.

However, I couldn't return to the small wooden house now. The light magister there definitely knew this and would definitely spend the night in the small wooden house today.

If I returned now, I would be walking into a trap and courting death.

Seeing that the sky was getting darker and darker, my heart started to burn with anxiety.

What should I do?

Should I gamble that there wouldn't be any danger and spend the night outside?

This thought flashed through my mind, but I immediately rejected it.

I couldn't gamble with my life.

Looking at the surrounding terrain, I realized that it was only the gap between the rocks where I had been hiding when I had been eavesdropping could be used a place to spend the night.

Although it could only cover my head and not my tail.

The gap between the rocks? !

Looking at the stone crack in front of me, I suddenly remembered something from before.

Something was wrong with Regulus' head. He was unable to store his magic power, so the power of the magic he cast gradually decreased.

Then, I brought the Knight King to a nearby Stone Mountain to search for magic crystals that could be used to replenish energy.

Then, I had a conflict with the mountain goblins on the Stone Mountain.

In the end, I was taught a lesson by the mountain goblin elites that appeared from the cracks in the mountain.

And that Stone Mountain, I remember, seemed to be nearby.

It was less than half an hour's journey from here.

Moreover, according to the [Records of The Nolan Continent], mountain goblins were creatures that lived with a regular schedule.

They wouldn't usually sleep during the day or go out at night.

Therefore, the current Stone Mountain was very safe for me.

Looking at the sky, I realized that it would be dark in about 20 minutes at most.

Hence, I hurriedly brought the only undead beside me, Regulus and rushed towards the direction of the Stone Mountain.

I rushed at a slow pace without any rest. In the end, Regulus and I made it to the Stone Mountain before it was dark.

"Roar..."

"Roar..."

"Chirp..."

Standing at the edge of the Stone Mountain, I heard all kinds of cries. Some of them were huge carnivores.

I felt lucky.

Luckily, I didn't choose to spend the night outside. Otherwise, I would have most likely entered the stomach of a ferocious beast.

Looking at the desolate Stone Mountain before me, it was completely different from before to when the mountain was filled with densely packed mountain goblins. There was a world of difference.

I knew that this was because mountain goblins stayed in their lairs at night.

I didn't go to the crack where the goblin elites appeared.

Instead, I chose another entrance to the crack.

Then, I found a cave in the mountain that could only accommodate two people.

Lastly, in order to hide myself from the goblins, I even found a large stone to block the entrance of the leaving only a few holes for air to breathe through.

Only then did I start to relax.
