[The Arch Lich Malus has risen once again. The undead scattered will now be more coordinated and will become strengthened. A pillar of the Undead has been revived. All churches has issued a decree to purge the undead and the Arch Lich Malus.]

The world message that was announced to all the inhabitants of the main world were shocked. When the undead expansion first came out, the undeads that were spawned in the field zones were scattered and were easily defeated. The players thought that the event was only made to increase their experience yield due to how easy it was to farm skeletons and zombies.

The major gaming news sites all focused on this world message and immediately called upon speculations. The previous news about the person who acquired a unique class was buried because of the new world message that was given. Although a player with a unique job was a great scoop, it would not compare to a world ending event like that of a monster flood made of undead.

Paladins and Priest class players were all ordered to return to their respective churches aligned with 'good' so that they could be issued a mission to purge the undead. The players who were aligned with churches aligned with 'evil' also issued new missions to their acolytes to help or even make contact to the higher ups of the undead.

Now that an Arch Lich was free, the undead event was now rolling. A bloodbath that would change the world view of Pandemonium was now taking place.

Adrian was so tired after he successfully learned the two spells in six hours. He was now only left with a few hours of activity due to it but it was worth it. The only thing that irks him is that even if he maximized his mana usage and concentration, his intelligence stat did not even rise up.

The only thing he could think of is that is the downside of the Daemos race having twice the skill points as others. The race could have a much longer time needed for a stat bonus to occur. Unlike for example the human race that could easily gain stats by grinding repetitive actions, the daemos would most likely rely on their sub job class for extra stat points.

Still Adrian has a smile on his face due to the two skills that he has earned. He had that ugly smile on his face due to his jubilee.

Ascalor greatly admired the youngster in front of him because he has talent and was a fast learner as long as he put his mind to it. The only problem with the youngster was that ugly smile of his that shows every time he succeeds in his task. He had to whack this youngster's head so that it would not inflate and go over the moon.

Adrian was basking in his own glory when he got a message from his best friend. He returned to his normal expression and looked towards Ascalor for a second. He saw that Ascalor raised his hand and was about to swing it but only to scratch his head instead. He thanked Ascalor for teaching him patiently and he was a good teacher only for the latter to blush due to the compliment.

Adrian then read the whisper sent to him by Levin Cloud and it said, "There was a world message regarding an Arch Lich reviving. I was given a mission to protect a fortress by the church. Are you free? The undead siege will happen tomorrow at Alabaster Fortress. Go there if you are not doing anything important. We need all the help we can get."

Adrian then replied with, "We. What did he meant by we? I better log out first since I only have a few hours left anyways."

Adrian then told Ascalor that he needed to talk to a friend of his and that he was invited to help defend a fortress from an undead siege. When Ascalor heard the word undead, he furrowed his brows a little before teleporting them back to the Paradox Planes. When they arrived, Ascalor was the first one to tell Adrian to go on his own as he was going to be busy for the moment.

Adrian nodded and went to Jianna's workshop first to restock up on potions. He caught his Scribe Master, Aernas, in Jianna's workshop as they were discussing something important. Adrian thinks it was important because the usual aloof Jianna had a serious face when she and Aernas were talking.

Adrian greeted Aernas and Jianna and was asked on his scribe mastery. Adrian answered that he was still in the beginner phase. Only to be told that he was lazy by Aernas. Adrian restocked on potions and logged out.

Adrian immediately contacted Marlon to ask about his whisper to him. He dialed his best friend's haloswatch and luckily he got through.

"Dude, what is this about a siege?" Adrian

"Do you not know what is happening right now in Pandemonium? Marlon replied.

"What? Did something big happen?" Adrian asked as he was clueless. He did not receive the world message because he was off world so to speak.

"Wha! Nevermind, I will tell you. Apparently necromancers sacrificed dozens of people to revive this Arch Lich. The video about it is up because some players were there to witness the event. The video is trending right now but the only thing they posted was the ritual and the Arch Lich being released from its seal." Marlon replied.

When Adrian heard what his best friend said, he immediately searched for the video and was shocked because it already had about ten million views despite only being posted thirty minutes ago. The video was about twenty five minutes long and showed the ritual where dozens of body bags were eaten by the bone spike with a skeleton emerging from beneath the magic circle.

The video was cut off after it showed the skeleton getting dressed in regal robes and jewelry. Adrian had goosebumps not because he was afraid but because of the aura that the Arch Lich released. The video was shaky for a moment when the Arch Lich released its aura. For it to affect its own allies only means one thing, the Arch Lich was ruthless and did not even care for its subordinates.

Unfortunately, Adrian could not use his evil eye to inspect the Arch Lich because he was not in-game. There was even a special on PademoNews about the Arch Lich. The panel were famous for their classification skills and they evaluated that the Arch Lich would be level 250 at the very least. Adrian was snapped back into reality by his best friend calling him.

"Hello?! Earth to Adrian. You are dozing off again." Marlon teased.

Adrian shook his head and said, "So what time do I need to go to Alabaster Fortress?"

"You need to log in by 9:00 in the morning. That would be about 7:00 AM in game. It is probably better if you are earlier than that." Marlon replied.

"Wait. Did I hear it right? The undead are attacking at morning. Am I hearing you correctly?" Adrian voiced his doubt.

"That was the mission I got. It would probably only a scouting army. The undead could be brought back to life as long as a lich or death knight is present. It would probably be low level undead due to the nature of the mission given to me by the church. It is good experience for us anyways. Also the top scoring individual and party will get an epic rune stone treasure chest." Marlon stated.

When Adrian heard that a treasure chest was up for grabs, he immediately said yes.

"The level of the undead army will probably be level 75 to 80 so do not expect it to be easy. I am currently level 75 right now hence I got the mission from the church. What is your current level?" Marlon asked.

"Level 68" Adrian said nonchalantly while Marlon had a face full of disbelief.
