Global Lords: Hundredfold Increments Starting With the Undead

Chapter 917: Chapter 582: Checking the Register (Seeking Recommendation Tickets, Subscriptions, etc…)_3

Shao Xing’s brow furrowed as he suddenly turned his head to look at Aseti.

The latter’s brow was also knitted in concern.

It wasn’t possible to reinforce the troops for the war against the northern Federation from here, due to the great distance.

The only explanation was that ‘Odys’ had already known that the Blood Clan was advancing from north to south.

The nearby fortresses, due to lack of troops, had begun slaughtering living creatures to expand their military strength.

Even for the Undead, this approach was utterly ruthless.@@novelbin@@

If the battle ended, no living creature would survive afterward.

Aseti continued, “Send the message to Queen ‘Amanda’.”

“Alright.” Shao Xing nodded, opening the Book of Lords and began sending the message.

Meanwhile, Amanda dismounted, “I need the map and intelligence on the nearby fortresses. Whoever has knowledge of it, tell me.”

It was still the same woman, “I know some.”

“You are very brave,” Aseti praised, opening the parchment map, and began having the woman mark all the routes, villages, fortresses, and gathering points she knew.

Accuracy wasn’t important; as long as the direction was right, that would suffice.

Later on, the transmigrators would ride the Bone Dragons following the directions for a round flight, and the map would automatically be annotated.

The woman nodded, beginning to point out everything she knew.

When all the markings were finished.

Aseti nodded satisfactorily, appreciating the courage of this woman.

“Where is the child’s father?” Aseti inquired.

“He’s dead,” the woman replied, but no sorrow could be discerned in her tone.

Death was all too common here.

“Take your child with me, there you and your child can have a better life,” Aseti said softly.

The woman was stunned but quickly realized what was being offered and knelt with her child in her arms, “Thank you, my lord, thank you.”

Shao Xing helped her onto the Bone Horse.

The woman’s good fortune made the rest of the villagers envious.

But their own indifference had made it clear that they wouldn’t be taken along.

Before the cavalry left.

Aseti continued to proclaim loudly, “The Gold Eating Queen is reclaiming the lost lands, rebuilding the ‘Anglina Kingdom’. Find a way to survive and wait for the victory of the war.”

After saying this, she spurred her mount and took off quickly with the cavalry.

A group of villagers were left behind, confused and at a loss.

“What did that person just say?”

“She said the Gold Eating Queen is back to rebuild ‘Anglina Kingdom’.”

“Who is the Gold Eating Queen?”

“You don’t know? My grandfather mentioned it before, this place was once called ‘Anglina Kingdom’, and the Gold Eating Queen was the queen of the kingdom.”

“She can live that long? Is she also one of the Undead?”

“Who cares what she is, anything is better than Odys, right?”

“So what do we do?”

“Let’s go, gather our things, and hide in the back mountains for a while. We’ll come back after the war ends.”

“Right, right!”

…

Howling Fortress.

A crucial fortress built after the fall of ‘Anglina Kingdom’.

Twelve levels high, akin to the main city’s level, this fortress appeared lofty and impregnable.

Within the fortress.

Rows of White Bone Skeletons were carrying various objects to the ramparts.

The old, rusty siege equipment on top was also being hurried along, undergoing repairs and replacements.

All the Undead were busy and tense as if facing a great enemy.

A skeleton hero, tall of bone, clad in heavy armor and carrying a great sword on his back.

He was loudly urging the Skeletons’ work.

Last night, news came from the main city.

It claimed that the army of the Blood Clan had broken into the territory from the north, and soon their next target would be this very fortress.

The command Odys issued to him was simple.

Defend the city, hold out until the reinforcements arrived.

This message almost extinguished his Soul Fire.

At this moment, the fortress seemed towering and sturdy, but in reality, it was more like an empty shell.

Only twenty thousand defending troops were inside the city, and the rest were supporting the war against the human Federation in the south.

Hence, at dawn, he had arranged for soldiers to go out.

To kill every living creature in all the nearby villages.

Regardless of gender, old or young, not one was to be spared.

However regrettable, it would scrape together a force of a few thousand troops.

He had made contact with the leader of the Blood Castle.

Called the Red Duke, an effeminate orange hero.

Even if the Blood Clan was capable of Flight, defending a city against their assault should not be difficult.

He mused to himself.

Feeling that the task to hold the fort wasn’t so challenging after all.

When the time came, King Odys would surely reward him, granting more resources.

Boom! Boom!

Suddenly, the alarming sound of the bell jarred him awake.

“What’s the matter, who rang the bell?”

“There are enemies in the sky, quick, prepare defenses!” an Undead shouted aloud.

The skeleton hero looked up to the sky.

He saw a swarm of Bone Dragons diving almost vertically down from the clouds.

“Damn it, how could the Blood Clan have Bone Dragons, so many Bone Dragons.”

“Attack quickly!”

Roar!

Black beams of light enveloped the entire fortress.

In the blink of an eye, the city was left empty.
