Chapter 264 Undead and Traps
The Undead Lord sat on the sky island, with two women with animal ears kneeling beside him, waving fans in their hands.
The wind 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, he didn't even have a normal human territory. Every day, he dealt with skeletons and necromancers like the dead.
It was very boring. He hadn't 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. When they saw him, they attacked him like some horrible monster... and they ran away on the airship.
He wanted to keep them... but only kept a few...
The women who were kept were used as slaves by him, and the men were put in prison.
This feeling of only having to face PVE was great.
He can do it without them. By stitching floating stones with bone frames, he successfully created a flying bone puppet. The protection and flight speed are both worrying, but the carrying capacity is acceptable.
He has built two special buildings for the undead on this medium-sized sky island, the Skeleton Maintenance Center and the Skeleton Construction Field.
The former is used to maintain countless skeleton soldiers and their weapons, while the latter is used to produce various undead units made of bones and stones.
A big problem of the undead is that they are very short of mid-level command and technical personnel... Only heroes and cannon fodder, their mid-level command 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 who can be transferred to the production system. These most ordinary skeleton soldiers are not as good as him doing farm work, so that they can loosen the soil and take away the seedlings of plants.
It was a long time before he discovered... Skeletons don't have human vision...
He also made a small profit by selling food when food was scarce in the early stage by relying on the skeleton soldiers' slight farming ability.
Others would never have thought that there would be a group of undead farming on land that had not yet been infected by the breath of death, and then selling the food they grew to the market in exchange for the gold they needed.
Although the farming efficiency of these clumsy skeletons was only one-third of that of humans, this had been adjusted by the spellcasters of the necromancy school under his command, and the initial efficiency was only one-fourth of that of humans.
After choosing the undead, he quickly realized that this was not the invincible natural disaster he had imagined, and he quickly realized that he could not rely on his racial advantage to kill people everywhere.
The bones were fragile, the slashing was weak, and the movement was slow.
The most ordinary skeletons needed the accumulation of countless technologies to become the natural disaster he imagined.
In the last exercise battlefield, he led 5,000 skeletons to fight. If there hadn't been a spellcaster behind him, he would have been chopped through by the Elf Lord... Skeletons don't know how to forge weapons. They are lucky if they can survive a round with the crude and rough weapons in their hands when they encounter rune swords.
After all, weapons need to be made by themselves. 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 with all 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 accelerate the ability of the skeletons 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 find someone in the Lord Market to sell bones if he has the time.
Find some excellent bones and combine them with magic crystals to get an elite unit, and if he is lucky, he will get a hero unit.
He quickly found another way to quickly improve his combat effectiveness, which is to use a large number of bones to create skeleton constructs belonging to the undead. These three-meter-high bones are comparable to elemental life and have quite good combat effectiveness.
He struggled to survive the third era and reached the fourth era, built an expedition station, and began to explore the outside world.
Ha, the future is right in front of him, and he will soon become an undead scourge and crush other lords. This world has a considerable reserve of magical plants and magical creatures. If he develops destructively...
Hehe... If anyone wants to compete with me for territory, leave them a piece of completely destroyed scorched earth to disgust them.
He thought viciously.
It's a pity that most undead lords tend to develop destructively. In the middle stage, all lords have a comprehensive understanding of the Undead Lords. In the end, once an Undead Lord appears in each fragment 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 should spend money on post-disaster reconstruction.
The resources consumed to restore a destroyed land are far more than maintaining a strong army. When someone goes beyond the consensus of sticking to the rules, don't blame them for being ruthless.
The normal lord competition is limited to the transfer and exchange of resources. After the two sides fight, yours is yours and mine is mine.
The act of completely destroying a piece of land and turning it into something that can only be used by them is despised by all lords. Quite a few lords are willing to share and cooperate with others to develop the same sky island world because of insufficient manpower and management capabilities.
If you are disgusting in the fragment world, you will really be beaten up by other forces. Many forces will be beaten to death.
In the end, as long as the undead lord appears in the fragment world, they will be beaten up directly, causing the undead lord to leave the stage with most of their resources lagging behind.
Of course, this is all later.
He squinted his eyes and saw a black dot approaching in the distance...
————
"I said, why does that sky island in the distance feel a little wrong..."
Hackett looked at the island with a little white in the green, a little confused.
"Let's go directly to the large sky island without resting."
Jiang Liu frowned slightly, turned the course, and said in his heart that he was unlucky. Re-measure the relative position, draw an approximate course and align the bow with the angle.
————
The Undead Lord looked at the familiar drum shape and remembered that the adventurers who escaped that day also took the same boat.
This one was just bigger and moved faster.
But what could this simple wooden boat do... It was not even convenient to install artillery on it.
In a boarding battle, he had a 90% chance of winning.
"Should we rush up and kill them?"
The Undead Hero Unit standing next to him lowered his head and asked with a pale face.
"No, I want to see if he can take us to their lair... We didn't catch these local natives before..."
He raised his voice and said from the channel.
"Let all the floating skeleton structures set sail. The goal is to follow them and take all the combat units."
Following their route, we can find their large camp. It would be great to catch a few more of these subhumans with animal ears and bring them back as slaves.
At worst, we can find the coordinates of their camp.
It will be very convenient to do anything in the future.
