Soon, the captured undead were brought to Lear.

The other person was wrapped in circles of black rags, with his cold white bones revealed.

His eyes were empty, and through them one could see a faint blue flame burning.

He exudes an evil and dark aura.

It makes people feel cold and uncomfortable, as if they have walked into a grave.

Undead Spy, Level 7, Features: Can talk to the dead and get the information they want
Make the dead speak?
This attribute is domineering.

It is a magical skill to use it to gather information.

Before Lear could speak, the undead spy seemed to sense something. He raised his head, his bony mouth opened and closed, and sounds came out of his empty throat.

"Respected human lord, greetings to you. I am the servant of the Black Death City Dragon Lich - His Majesty Kors."

Lear raised his brows slightly.

"Black Death City Coles?"

"Undead, what is your purpose here?"

"Get intelligence from all around and report it to His Majesty Coles. Our Black Death City is expanding."

"The glory of Black Death City needs to be spread. If the nearby forces are willing to submit to the great Crown Master Coles, they can all become part of Black Death City."

"Your Majesty Coles has built a magic tower in the Black Death City. Anyone who is willing to join can learn three spells for free, or upgrade one of their own skills."

"This is the preferential treatment that Your Majesty grants to everyone."

"Human Lord, although His Majesty Coles is a lich, the territory he rules covers several planes and he has hundreds of thousands of believers."

“That includes humans.”

"If you are willing to become a member of the Black Death City, I can introduce you immediately."

Lear looked at the Undead spy talking in front of him with a strange expression.

Good man, are you trying to surrender to me?

But what the other party said was not false. That dragon lich was so powerful that it could rule over several planes? !

My inner vigilance immediately increased several levels.

"As far as I know, His Majesty Coles is only a level 17 creature with hundreds of thousands of followers. Isn't that a bit exaggerated?"

"Your Majesty is the reincarnation of a god, born powerful, and destined to become the Lord of the Dead! How can you compare Your Majesty to a mortal?!"

The Undead Spy became somewhat agitated, and the fire of his soul continued to jump and burn.

The reincarnation of gods? You're referring to gods in everything, right?

Waved his hand.

"Are the conditions offered by the reincarnated gods so unattractive?"

"This is just the preliminary condition given by His Majesty Coles. For the details, Lord, you can go to Black Death City to discuss it."

"How many troops does Black Death City have that make you so confident?"

"My Lord, the undead army of hundreds of thousands that has returned from the plane of the dead is not something that the forces in this wilderness can resist."

The plane of the dead?

Li Er's eyes became more serious.

This is a large plane outside the main plane, gathering the entire undead pantheon.

It is almost the ultimate place that all the dead souls yearn for.

It is said that it was created by the God of Creation himself, and even the lowest level of undead staying in it has the potential to transform into a god.

However, the rules of the main plane are an absolute block and a one-way passage for the undead plane.

If the other party really came back from the undead plane, then this dragon lich is quite something.

"What if I'm not interested in you?"

"You can move out of this swamp."

The Dead Agent's voice was calm.

"The hundreds of kilometers around here will all be the territory of His Majesty Coles, without exception."

"This swamp has entered your Majesty's sight. Human lords, you can't hide."

Lear smiled.

"That means there's nothing to talk about?"

As he spoke, his eyes suddenly focused.

A sacred and inviolable power emanated from his body, like a sharp sword, penetrating into his soul.

But just when he touched the soul fire and wanted to leave a mark on it.

Click~
The fire of his soul was shattered and completely extinguished.

Cannot be enslaved.

Lear frowned slightly.

He could feel an evil and fierce force taking over the soul of the Dead Agent.

There is also a faint sense of dragon power on it.

Obviously, it was the work of the dragon lich.

His eyes became serious.

Those who can control souls are not weak.

Turning to look at the Scarlet Bee Queen.

"You must lead your men to follow the trail of this undead spy and find the territory of the dragon lich."

It seems that the undead ghost has a great background and is potentially very dangerous. If it is not eliminated soon, it may explode at any time.

What will happen then is unpredictable.

The situation outside has begun to become turbulent. One of the main purposes of coming back this time is to eliminate the threats around.

Let the City of Weilu continue to have a safe environment for development.

"Yes, Master."

The Scarlet Queen Bee immediately spread her wings and flew away, bringing with her tens of thousands of wasps, and began searching for the location of the Black Death City in a dense net-like manner.

While Lear was still thinking, he suddenly saw Haggs passing by not far away.

He came to his senses and waved his hand to stop the other person.

I took out the ancient lizard egg I got in Loran City and forgot to give it to him yesterday.

Looking at the somewhat puzzled look of the wetland lizardman hero, he spoke slowly.

"These 10 stones are ancient lizard eggs. After swallowing them, they can once again enhance your talents and potential."

"Use it well. The enemies of Wei Lu City are becoming stronger and stronger. I hope you can keep up with us."

Haggs' eyes were full of surprise and he was so excited that he almost cried.

"dominate."

Lear waved his hand and let the other party take it.

Hags took it with excitement and said nothing more.

His life and soul had already belonged to the city of Dew and to Lear.

Loyalty doesn't need too much verbal expression, actions have already proved it!
With further promotion, Hags' potential will reach 4 stars and the level cap will be raised to level 15.

If he were placed in Loran City, he could already serve as the deputy commander of an ordinary legion.

In the City of Wei Lu, they are the absolute backbone force.

Lear was also somewhat relieved. Haggs had made a great contribution to the establishment of the City of Wisma from scratch. He was always at the forefront in almost every battle.

There is no fault with this attitude.

Now that things were settled here, he relaxed.

Although the dragon lich is powerful, now that the opponent has appeared, the danger will be greatly reduced.

As long as he sits in the swamp, he is not afraid of any enemy.

What he was afraid of was that after he left the swamp, the other side would launch a surprise attack, which would be difficult to prevent.

The easiest way is to kill the dragon lich first!

Over the next few days, the Scarlet Queen Bee searched for the Black Death City of the Dragon Lich. Although no trace of it had been found yet, Lear had a hunch that he would get concrete news in a day or two at most.

To this end, he began to make some extra preparations.

If the opponent is as powerful as the Undead Spy said, then this will be a big battle.

At the same time, it also urged the night elves to speed up the transformation into night elves hunters.

This 4-star potential, initial level 13 soldier, once trained, will be an absolute killer.

After a few days, together with the buildings in the fortress city to the west, there were finally more than 700 buildings, meeting the needs of all the night elves for their job changes.

But this promotion is not easy. Even with the help of the power of activated buildings, it will still take a long time to complete the transformation.

Lear could only wait quietly. On the way, another piece of good news came from the blacksmith shop.

"Sir, I have thoroughly studied the longbow forging drawings you gave us. This is a new longbow."

The leader of the Frye people, Brin, a strong man, was in a very high spirit at the moment.

"The previous materials are all unique to the underground world. I spent a lot of time and effort to complete the replacement. The properties will definitely not be worse than the original ones."

"Please take a look."

As he spoke, he held up a black longbow in both hands.

The overall length is about 1.2 meters, and Li Erti feels quite heavy in his hand.

It doesn't look like it's made of wood, but rather like it's made of melted steel.

It is difficult for ordinary people to lift it.

There are dozens of obscure inscriptions engraved on the longbow, which constantly attract the magical power from all around.

I don’t know what material the bowstring is made of, but it is crystal clear and has an indescribable toughness.

Pull gently and you will immediately feel a strong pulling force rebounding.

Let go of your hand, bang~dang~ the bowstring keeps bouncing and making crisp sounds.

Even before looking at the attributes, one can feel that this is an absolutely powerful, top-grade longbow.

After opening the attribute panel, Li Er's mood immediately improved.

Armor-breaking Longbow
[Level]: 3 star

[Range]: 400 meters

[Features]: 1. Armor-piercing. Each attack will cause armor-piercing damage. Protective gear that is lower than the longbow level will be directly penetrated. An additional 40% armor-piercing damage will be added to the same level.

2. Charge up, activate the inscription on the longbow, condense the surrounding magic power, increase the next attack's damage by 3 times, and add penetrating damage.

3. Multiple shooting: can shoot 5 arrows at a time. The damage of each arrow will not decrease, and the accuracy will be increased by an additional 30%.

[Evaluation]: The longbow forged by the Frye people through countless years of inheritance has great power.

After reading the attributes, Lear patted Brin's shoulder in appreciation.

"Not bad, very good. I am very satisfied!"

"According to the current situation, how many armor-breaking longbows can be produced every day?"

Brin also smiled.

"Sir, the halflings are currently in charge of the manufacture of bows and arrows, and they can produce at least 20 longbows every day."

"After becoming more proficient, the quantity can be increased."

"But the manufacturing process of the armor-breaking longbow is relatively difficult. If we keep having so many people, even if the production volume is increased in the future, the upper limit of 40 to 50 pairs per day will be reached."

Lear nodded, understanding what was going on.

Weapons like bows look simple, and their overall components cannot be matched with armor, but they are very difficult to manufacture.

Any slight deviation during production will have a huge impact on overall performance.

The armor can be recycled, but if there is a problem with the longbow, there is no way to repair it.

"That's fine. Are there enough materials for the halflings to produce it?"

"Yes, I made it from a unique hardwood found in the swamp mixed with fine iron."

"The bowstring is made of bison and unicorn tendons mixed with a secret smelting method."

“These aren’t hard materials to find.”

“Okay, let’s do it.”

Lear let Brin go down with satisfaction.

In this way, the night elves' backup equipment is ready.

Just wait for the other party to complete the transformation.

Time passed quickly, and three days passed in the blink of an eye. It was November 3th, and Lear was busy in the City of Dew.

The situation in Loran City finally underwent a dramatic change.

The orcs' vanguard, the wolf cavalry army, was like a sharp knife, approaching 300 kilometers outside the city of Loran.

Discovered by the Griffin Legion.

A bloody battle broke out between the two sides, and dozens of griffin riders and hundreds of wolf riders died in the wilderness.

Although this was nothing to both forces, a sense of oppression that a storm was about to come rose instantly.

The entire northern province began to feel uneasy.

On the other side, at the entrance to the underground world, Lear's spies arranged around the area discovered the movements of the night elves.

And this time, there are not only night elves, but also a large number of dark-skinned drow elves, plus ferocious and hideous giant spiders.

As soon as the other party stepped out of the ground, they immediately began to build a defensive position.

Among them, there are high-level heroes above level 16.
In addition, the Keld ratmen also began to appear in large numbers in the swamp.←The fortress city in the west was attacked by thousands of ratmen in the middle of the night.

The situation suddenly changed and an atmosphere of turmoil began to spread.

-

In the wilderness hundreds of kilometers away from the City of Wei Lu, there is a tall and dense forest.

The air was filled with a dead silence, and the chirping of insects and birds seemed to not exist in this world.

Stepping into it, the rustling sound of leaves under your feet and the breeze is everything in this world.

After crossing a long road, passing through patches of dark grey woods, and reaching the depths of the dense forest, you can see a towering fortress built of bones, standing quietly.

The outer wall is over 50 meters high and is garrisoned by a silent army of undead.

The city defense equipment made of bones and corpses looked hideous and terrifying.

Looking at it from a distance, it looks like a war fortress built on the border.

Ah ah ah~
Pususu~
There was a sound of flapping wings, and a flock of white-boned crows flew across the sky. Their miserable cries made the dense forest even more terrifying.

In the central area of ​​this bone fortress, a hundred-meter-high obelisk magic tower stands like a mountain.

There is a platform at the top that overlooks the entire city.

A mysterious figure in a black robe held the railing with one hand and looked out into the dense forest.

Under the black robe was a pair of empty eyes with dark blue flames dancing in them.

He exudes a deathly aura that keeps strangers away, and can make people tremble with fear even from a very long distance.

"Master, the treasure chest has been placed on the altar."

The black-robed undead heard the voice behind him and slowly turned his head.

Behind him was an undead warrior wearing full black armor and holding a giant black sword in his hand.

The aura emanating from the other party was as fierce and violent as a dragon.

The whole body was covered with armor, and no bones were exposed.

A hoarse voice sounded slowly.

"How many more souls are needed to open the treasure chest?"

"At least. Millions."

"We have sacrificed over a million people in twenty planes, but it's still not enough. What exactly is hidden in this treasure chest of the Grand Duke of the Abyss?"

"Master, the age of that ancient relic is still too old to be traced. Perhaps it is a relic from a war between gods. Only by opening it can we know."

The black-robed undead was silent for a moment and waved his hand slowly.

"Go, get more souls and blood."

"We can't stay in the main plane for too long. If we encounter a being above the extraordinary, my current strength won't be enough to handle it."

He said and sighed.

"If the population of those small planes were not so small, we wouldn't have to take risks here."

"Wait until I open the treasure chest and regain my strength. I will imprison that damned Skull Lord in the Land of Light for a million years!!"

"Master, no one can stop you from moving forward!"

"Hmph! Has there been any news from the Undead Spy?"

"300 kilometers to the south, the soul of a dead agent has been dispelled and our resurrection spell is ineffective."

"↓300 kilometers south? Where is that?"

"In a swamp, there must be a strong force. Otherwise, it would be impossible to destroy the soul of the Undead Agent."

"Take people to investigate and gather the souls needed to open the treasure chest as soon as possible. I must recover my strength within half a year, otherwise the Skull Lord will completely devour our territory!"

"As you wish!"

At the same time, Lear received information that the Scarlet Bee Queen was in a dense forest 300 kilometers north of ↑.

Discovered the Black Death City where the dragon lich lived.

Li Er looked at the black-robed ghost at the same time. (End of this chapter)
