Chapter 264 Undead and Traps
The Undead Lord sat on the sky island, with two women with animal ears kneeling beside him, waving medium-sized fans.
As for the wind, it was better than nothing, but more importantly, he enjoyed the sense of accomplishment of being superior to others. Since he became the Lord, not to mention being superior to others, there was not even a normal human territory. Every day, he dealt with skeletons and necromancers like dead people.
It was very boring. He had not seen other Lords since he came to this world... It seemed that this world was completely his own, and he had become the overlord of this airspace.
He did see a group of adventurers with animal ears and colorful weapons. They looked at him as if he were some kind of scary monster, and attacked him crazily... and they ran away on that airship.
He wanted to keep them... only a few...
The women who were kept were used as slaves by him, and the men were put in jail.
It felt great to only have to deal with PVE.
He could do it without them. He successfully created a flying skeleton puppet by stitching the bone frame to float in the air. The protection and flight speed were both worrying, but the carrying capacity was acceptable.
He had built two special buildings for the undead on this medium-sized sky island, the Skeleton Maintenance Center and the Skeleton Construction Field.
The former was used to maintain countless skeleton soldiers and their weapons, while the latter was used to produce various undead units made of bones and heads.
A big problem with the undead is that they are very short of mid-level commanders and technicians... There are only heroes and cannon fodder, and their mid-level commanders and production technicians need to use additional magic crystals with fixed output to convert production.
He has a lot of low-level productivity, but there is no way to promote them and turn them into casters to transform the production system. These most ordinary skeleton soldiers are not as good as him when doing farm work, letting them loosen the soil so that the plant seedlings can be taken away together.
It was a long time later that he discovered... Skeletons don't have human vision...
He also relied on the skeleton soldiers' slight farming ability to sell food when food was scarce in the early stage and made a small profit.
Others would never think that there would be a group of undead farming on the land that had not been infected by the breath of death, and then sell the food obtained from planting to the market in exchange for the required gold.
Although the farming efficiency of these clumsy skeletons is only one-third of that of humans, this has been adjusted by his necromancer spellcasters, and the initial efficiency is only one-tenth of that of humans.
After choosing the undead, he quickly realized that this was not the invincible natural disaster he had imagined. He quickly realized that he could not rely on his racial advantage to kill the enemy.
The bones are fragile, the slashing is weak, and the movement is slow.
The most ordinary skeletons need to accumulate countless technologies to become the natural disaster he imagined.
In the last exercise battlefield, he took 5,000 skeletons out to fight. If there were no spellcasters to cover him from behind, he would have been chopped through by the elf lord... The skeletons can't forge weapons. Their simple and rough weapons are considered lucky to survive a round when they encounter rune swords.
After all, weapons also need to be made by oneself, and he can't make weapons out of thin air for skeletons and zombies to use.
The factory-provided weapons in the game are all deceptive. As for energy... that weak energy is not much different from a child's toy sword in front of the rune armor made of fine steel.
Facing the elf lord equipped with rune equipment, he can only run away.
And there is no wisdom.
It takes too many magic element crystals to give the ignorant intelligence, but waiting for them to awaken naturally is extremely inefficient.
Fortunately, he can unlock the return of intelligence in the era upgrade and speed up the skeleton to obtain low-end intelligence.
As for waiting for the initial skeleton soldiers to slowly awaken and become high-level spellcasters... he might as well go to the lord market to see if there is anyone selling bones.
Find some excellent bones and combine them with magic crystals to get an elite unit, and if you are lucky, you will get a hero unit.
He quickly found another way to quickly improve his combat power, which was to create a skeleton construct belonging to the undead from a large number of skeletons. These three-meter-tall skeletons, comparable to elemental life, had quite good combat power.
He struggled to survive the third era and reached the first era, built an expedition station, and began to explore the outside world.
Ha, it's right in front of us. Look at him turning into an undead scourge and crushing other lords. This world has a considerable reserve of magical plants and magical creatures. If he develops destructively...
Heh... If anyone wants to grab the territory for themselves, leave them a completely destroyed scorched earth to disgust them.
He thought viciously.
It's a pity, because most undead lords tend to develop destructively. In the mid-term, all lords have a comprehensive understanding of the Undead Lords. In the end, once an Undead Lord appears in each fragmented world, he will be attacked by others until it is confirmed to be completely destroyed.
If you don't spend money on the army, you have to spend money on post-disaster reconstruction.
The resources consumed to restore a destroyed land are far more than maintaining a strong army. When someone crosses the consensus of sticking to the rules, don't blame them for being cruel.
Normally, the competition between lords is limited to resource exchange and exchange. After the two sides fight, you are yours and I am mine.
The complete destruction of a land into a land that can only be used by them is despised by all lords. Many lords are willing to share and cooperate with others to develop the same sky island world due to insufficient manpower and management capabilities.
In the broken world, disgusting people will really be severely beaten by other forces, and several people will jointly press them to the ground and hammer them to death.
In the end, as long as the undead lord appears in the broken world, they will directly join forces to beat them severely, resulting in the overwhelming majority of the undead lord's resources falling behind and unfortunately exiting the stage.
Of course, this is all for later.
He squinted his eyes and saw a black spot approaching in the distance...
————
"I said, something doesn't feel right about that empty island in the distance..."
Hackett looked at the green island with a little white mixed in, and was a little confused.
"We will go directly to the large empty island without rest."
Jiang Liu frowned slightly, turned the course, and thought to himself that it was bad luck. Re-measure the relative position, draw an approximate course, and align the ship's bow with the angle.
————
The undead lord looked at the familiar shape of the roller and remembered that the adventurers who escaped that day also took the same boat.
It's just that this one is bigger and moves faster.
But what can such crude wooden ships do... They are not even convenient for installing artillery on them.
In a boarding battle, he has a 90% chance of winning.
"Are we going to rush in and kill them?"
Standing next to him, the undead hero unit lowered his head and asked with a pale face.
"No, I want to see if he can take us to their home base...I haven't captured these locals before..."
He raised his voice and walked out of the passage.
"Let all floating white bone structures set sail. The goal is to follow them and bring all combat units with them."
If you follow their route, you can find their large camp. It would be great to capture a few of these demi-humans with animal ears and come back as slaves.
No matter what happens, you can still find the coordinates of their camp.
It will be quite convenient for whatever you want to do in the future.
