Hidden Agenda VII

Minutes later, Shen Rou came to be before an entrance; there was no door like the path where she had entered and a glimmer of light seemed to shine at the end of it.

She entered and after walking some tens of metres, she reached the part that was light, though it was dim.

'fifty-three metres and a half, just like the other path… if the other four pathways at the other two sides are the same, I don't think the nine thousand soldier's bodies will fit... many have above-average builds, after all,' she thought as she continued walking. Her personal space only consisted of the central room and six pathways that were about two hundred metres long and six metres wide; she was planning on expanding it later but now that will have to wait.

She speeded up and soon was right before a black coloured coffin that had silver patterns engraved. She put her hand on the coffin and the patterns shone brightly.

CLANK- The lid of the coffin opened and she put inside the female's body.

CLICK- She closed the coffin and the silver patterns remained shining as if knowing it wasn't empty anymore. Then she proceeded to put the two male's bodies in the two black coffins that were next to the one that had the female's body.

"I must get my hands in at least another six high-quality Black Nether Coffins."

'They aren't as strange as the Netherworld has made a business out of them but they auction them at a specific place and date…' Even though Black Nether Coffins were filled with death energy which technically should have accelerated a body's decomposition, the Netherworld renowned Necromancers had found some patterns that made death energy work in a dead body like life energy works in a living body, nurturing and keeping it in good state, and as good those Necromancers were, they also added other functions to them, increasing their quality and value.

"Haa-"

'How many years have passed since last one…?' she tilted her head, 'Or should I vacate some of the high-quality Black Nether Coffins I'm using for those guys… No…' she shook her head, 'with my soul as it is, that would be counterproductive.'

"The Moon Ice Coffins…" she waved her hand, 'good!' The thirteen white coffins that glittered like the moon floated in the air, getting her in a good mood as she had noticed she could only lift about five bodies but it seemed objects put less stress on her consciousness as it was now.

She hurried back to the central room and put inside the Moon Ice Coffins the rest of her generals and seven other soldiers she considered talented, the majority of those posts were covered by lieutenants.

"Hmm…" she pressed her rosy lips, 'for the rest of them, the aid of this place should do for now but… to have a better effect I need to move them to the parts that are still lit… moving almost nine thousand bodies in batches of five… how many turns I will need to make?' no matter how much she cared for her people, she was getting a headache only by thinking about it again.
