Chapter 819: Chapter 816: Merging into the Long Night

The dead were continuously climbing out of their coffins, and the graveyard was filled with swaying corpses. They queried in confusion, walked aimlessly, or sat on the morgue slab in a daze, futilely recalling and pondering in the slight discordance left after the old order had dissipated, trying to grasp the unease and shadows lingering in their hearts.

Instead of guarding the graveyard to prevent the undead from waking and stirring, the guard was leading these awakened corpses, escorting them away from this temporary resting place, sending them back to their homes.

The dim streetlights cast light on this eerie scene. Even Agatha, who could no longer feel the temperature of the living world, felt a coldness slowly seeping from her soul. She stood dumbfounded beside the path, watching as Duncan ushered the moving corpses one by one out, as if she was deep in a bizarre Dreamscape.

“Alright, you are the last one,” finally, the last staggering dead man began his journey home—a young man killed by homicide, his chest bearing a gruesome hole. Duncan supported this fresh corpse off the platform, gently advising, “You remember the way home, don’t you? Go back, it’s normal if breathing feels odd, you’ll get used to it soon… Now go home, be with your family, don’t think too much, just live well—go out from here, keep walking forward, don’t look back, you don’t have to come back here for a long time.”

The stiff-gaited corpse finally walked away, the dim streetlights illuminating his figure until he eventually disappeared into the vast darkness of the night.

Duncan finally approached the gatekeeper lady. Despite the thick bandages, his eyes still revealed a mild and calm smile: “Thank you for waiting, Ms. Agatha.”

Agatha suddenly felt a bit dazed, feeling as if she was about to forget something very important, but then she abruptly snapped awake, raising her hand to her forehead while murmuring, “The boundary between life and death is gone… Captain, what has happened? I feel… something isn’t quite right, here at the graveyard… just now, that was abnormal…”

Her body shook slightly, as if her consciousness had suddenly faltered, and she nearly fell over.

“Relax, Agatha.” Duncan reached out gently to support the gatekeeper, guiding her slowly to a nearby morgue slab to sit beside a coffin.
