New version of the Book of the Dead, an army of 100,000 undead! (5400)

Cao Xing touched the pitch-black bead in his hand, a strange look on his face.

"This thing… is a bit evil…"

After all, reducing Luck by a full 100 points was an incredibly broken attribute!

Up until now, Cao Xing's two Legendary equipment pieces and the Shining Throne only provided him with a total of 30 points of Luck…

It was evident that after this 100-point reduction in Luck, it would definitely have a massive impact on the target.

Cao Xing put it into his backpack.

He would see if any unlucky soul would be chosen by him later.

Then, Cao Xing turned around and returned to the territory.

He crossed the buffer zone and arrived at the center of the territory.

He walked straight toward the back garden area of the territory.

Soon, he arrived beside the Pale Tree, which stood over thirty meters tall with lush foliage.

The Pale Tree stood straight in the central area of the territory like a sacred tower.

It was like an ancient guardian, sheltering this land.

Beneath the Pale Tree, there were two beautiful figures.

They were currently busy tending to various magical plants.

It was the Tree Spirit sister duo.

Juliette and Nive.

Come to think of it, the two of them had been working very hard during this period.

Now that the territory's scale was growing larger and larger, the number of plants was increasing day by day.

Although those ordinary crops were managed by the villagers of Vine Village.

However, the other magical plants required their careful attention.

Such as Moses Grass, Aurora, Dream Demon Vines, Golden Sunflowers, and so on…

It could be said that the contribution of these two women to the development of Cao Xing's territory was indispensable.

At this moment, seeing Cao Xing approaching, the sister duo stood up respectfully.

"Greetings, Lord."

They were still wearing plain-colored clothes today, appearing quiet and elegant.

Cao Xing said directly: "Juliette, Nive, I have another task to trouble you with."

"Help me plant these ancient tree seeds."

After saying this, he handed over a bag.

The sister duo took it carefully and then exchanged a glance.

"These… seem to be seeds of the Ancient Tree of War."

"Great, our territory will have new guardians."

Nive also said with a smile on her face:

"Yeah, yeah! A few days ago, those Uncle Trees were telling me that they didn't know when they would see other companions."

"And today, Lord has brought back so many seeds!"

The two women had no objections to planting these plants; they were very happy.

Cao Xing also nodded with a smile.

"Then you two continue with your work; I won't disturb you."

At this moment, little Nive walked over and tugged on Cao Xing's sleeve, saying somewhat shyly.

"Um… Lord, could I take a few minutes of your time?"

Cao Xing turned his head and immediately saw little Nive, who was lowering her head with a slightly flushed face.

"Hm? What is it?"

Little Nive said softly: "Do you remember the two dresses you gave us last time? We haven't worn them for you to see yet…"

Juliette, who was beside her, also said softly.

"We want to wear them for you to see…"

Hearing this, Cao Xing remembered this matter.

He patted Nive's head, then looked at Juliette, "Alright, go put them on and let me see."

Hearing this, joyful smiles immediately appeared on the faces of the two women.

"Great!"

"Lord, please follow us."

Then, each of them took one of Cao Xing's hands and walked forward.

The sisters' palms were very smooth, feeling like touching a pair of soft jade.

Then, they carefully led Cao Xing into an intermediate residential house.

This was the room shared by the two sisters.

After pushing open the door, there was some neat furniture inside, as well as flowers visible everywhere.

The room was decorated very beautifully by them.

There were many small ornaments placed inside, as well as some potted plants for decoration.

A faint fragrance of flowers drifted to his nose from time to time.

Juliette turned her head and said softly.

"Lord, please wait a moment; my sister and I will go change our clothes."

"Alright."

After saying this, Juliette held Nive's hand and entered the room together.

Cao Xing sat on a chair in the hall, waiting silently.

From inside, the whispering of the two sisters could be heard from time to time.

A few minutes later, the door opened.

Two beautiful figures walked out gracefully.

The moment Cao Xing saw these two figures, his eyes widened instantly, and he couldn't look away.

Little Nive was now wearing that bright dress like a tulip, the skirt swaying slightly, blooming like a flower in spring.

The exquisite tailoring of the upper body fit her figure perfectly, and of course, it also highlighted her slightly flat chest.

Her whole person exuded an aura of youth.

On the other side, Juliette gave Cao Xing an even more stunning feeling.

She was wearing that dress which seemed to be woven from moonlight, the skirt falling naturally like flowing water, light and agile.

The low-cut design of the upper body fully presented her perfect figure.

Her bare shoulders were exposed, and one could even see her deep collarbones.

Like a lotus flower blooming quietly, serene and elegant.

Moreover, both women were wearing the sapphire necklaces Cao Xing had given them last time, making their skin appear even fairer.

It was truly beautiful.

Cao Xing stared blankly for a long time.

After a while, he let out a sentence.

"You look so beautiful…"

Hearing Cao Xing's praise, joyful smiles appeared on Juliette and Nive's faces.

"As long as Lord likes it… hehe…"

After speaking, they spun around together.

Their skirts swayed slightly.

Then, they came to him together and squatted down gently.

The two women pressed their cheeks against Cao Xing's knees, which seemed to be some kind of special ritual of their Tree Spirit race.

However, Cao Xing's gaze had already been attracted by those two pairs of snowy-white figures.

The necklines of their outfits were quite loose, and from this angle, everything was in full view.

The left side was tight like half a bowl, as if it could be bitten in one mouthful.

The right side was slightly larger.

But it could barely be held in one hand.

The sister duo seemed to notice Cao Xing's fiery gaze, but they didn't dodge; instead, their cheeks flushed slightly.

Just at this moment, the usually timid Nive suddenly stretched out her small hand and grabbed Cao Xing's broad palm.

And placed it inside her clothes.

In an instant, a warm and smooth sensation came through.

Cao Xing's heartbeat accelerated instantly, and then he subconsciously squeezed it gently.

Little Nive's legs became unsteady, and she was almost collapsing onto the ground.

On the other side, Juliette, seeing her sister's actions, was also extremely shy.

But soon, she gathered her courage and whispered: "If little Nive can do it, I can too…"

After speaking, she also grabbed Cao Xing's other hand.

At this moment, Cao Xing could be said to be advancing on both fronts.

The Tree Spirit sisters kept exhaling bursts of hot breath.

Seeing that the two sisters were about to collapse directly.

Cao Xing quickly used one hand for each, wrapping his arms around the slender waists of the two women, and lifted them up directly.

Their weight was truly very light, as if he were holding a pair of dolls.

The fluffy skirts swayed in the air, and one could see two pairs of slender and straight legs.

They were both wearing white pantyhose at the moment, which set them off as holy and flawless…

Cao Xing placed these two figure-like beauties on the edge of the bed.

Then he gently stroked their slender legs.

A moment later.

The dresses on Juliette and Nive fell off.

Revealing skin that was exceptionally fair and glowing with luster.

From head to toe, they were simply excessively exquisite…

This pair of beauties, except for the modest size of their chests, had figures that could be called top-notch.

Then, Cao Xing gently picked up Nive,

"Mm…"

After a slight tremor, Nive shed droplets of crimson.

But as a Tier 3 creature of the Boss level, her physical fitness was still very strong, and she adapted after a while.

Just when Cao Xing was a little worried.

Nive whispered in his ear.

"Lord, please continue…"

Hearing this, Cao Xing had no more concerns.

He had little Nive's ten toes curl tightly, while his other hand tightly grasped the sister's palm.

A moment later, it was Juliette's turn…

The same crimson spilled, accompanied by bursts of indescribable cries.

Two hours later, Cao Xing crawled out from the embrace of the two figure-like beauties.

The Tree Spirit sister duo had been exhausted of their energy.

They were currently in a deep sleep, their sleeping postures quite sweet.

That perfect and exquisite figure, just one look at it, could ignite the flames in the depths of one's heart.

However, Cao Xing still had things to do next.

Moreover, for them, this experience was also their first time, so they needed to rest.

So, Cao Xing kissed each of their cheeks and walked out of the room.

…

"Whew…"

Cao Xing took a deep breath.

Even until now, the perfect figures of the sister duo still lingered in his mind.

He shook his head, casting the images in his mind aside.

Cao Xing pressed the communication device on his ear and called Cao Yi over.

Soon, a middle-aged old man walked over with swift steps.

"Respected Lord."

Cao Xing said: "Next, stop the construction of the Elemental Arrow Tower."

"First, build more Corrosive Arrow Towers around the territory."

There is no need to build too many of these Corrosive Arrow Towers; just build one at intervals, and combined with a large number of Elemental Arrow Towers, they will be more effective.

"At your command, Lord."

Cao Yi replied respectfully, then quickly left to build the Corrosive Arrow Towers.

As for Cao Xing, he went back near the Machinery Factory and began applying status effects to the robots.

Come to think of it, after days of continuous production, the number of robots has reached 270.

These two hundred-plus robots are all Tier 6 combat units, and if deployed all at once, they would be incredibly powerful.

Just like that, Cao Xing kept casting Ice Healing Art and Ice Armor Technique, and time flew by.

In the blink of an eye, it was late afternoon, around sunset.

The warriors all returned to the territory one after another.

At this moment, after finishing applying status effects to the robots, Cao Xing stood on the city wall, gazing into the distance.

He was thinking about some things.

"A few days ago, I sent out a few people to scout."

"Elisa and Herlie's mission was to scout the location of the Church of Light's branch or headquarters."

"It's been so long, they should have reached the target area by now, but there hasn't been any news yet; they're probably still scouting."

"The place Renice went to is further away, but she should have arrived by now as well."

Both of these places are quite important to Cao Xing.

Especially the Church of Light!

Once the headquarters of this church is found, Cao Xing will mobilize his entire army to wipe out this faction!

Up until now, there has been no combat information from these three women, so there shouldn't be any need to worry.

So, he turned around and walked down from the city wall.

Then he saw Juliette and Nive working.

They bent down gently, planting seeds of War Ancient Trees along the edge of the city wall, then waited for the moment they would finish growing.

However, the sisters' gait seemed a bit unnatural.

Walking with a limp…

Especially the little girl, Nive, who even needed her sister's support…

Seeing this scene, Cao Xing said sheepishly, "Was it a bit too intense just now?"

However, the potential of this pair of sisters had already been raised to Chieftain level by Cao Xing, so their physical fitness was still very strong.

There was no need to worry.

Then, Cao Xing went to the Mage Tower as usual to meditate, absorbing one [Magic Crystal (Gold)] to increase his magic attack power slightly.

Come to think of it, after his accumulated absorption over this period.

He had already absorbed 18 Magic Crystals, increasing his magic strength by 18%, which was quite good.

After absorbing the 19th Magic Crystal, the time had reached around ten o'clock in the evening.

From that ancient battlefield, a massive number of undead appeared.

They were vast and mighty, numbering over twenty thousand!

The eerie blue ghost fire on their bodies even illuminated the entire snowy field.

Leading them, besides Duke Baradin, was a Black Knight, Tirnis.

Under Cao Xing's restraint, the two sides were now in a state of equality.

And at the very front, there were also 101 Star Country swordsmen.

They were all rushing towards the direction of the territory.

Upon hearing the news that this group of undead had emerged from the ancient battlefield, Cao Xing immediately came outside the territory to welcome them.

Soon, over twenty thousand undead appeared in front of Cao Xing's territory.

On such a cold night, a large number of undead floating in the snow was truly a creepy sight.

Those who didn't know better would have thought the monster siege had started early.

Looking at the blue undead fire on this group of undead, Cao Xing asked with a look of confusion in his eyes.

"This is… have they all been fully converted?"

Duke Baradin nodded and said, "Yes, currently all the undead in the ancient battlefield have been converted into Ascalon undead."

"Because of the increase in the number of undead, my strength has also been significantly enhanced."

Cao Xing glanced at Duke Baradin's panel and found that his level had even soared directly to level 70!

A look of surprise appeared in his eyes.

Then he exclaimed in admiration, "Congratulations, Your Excellency Baradin."

But this undead duke shook his head and said, "No, this operation was all thanks to Lord Cao Xing."

"Thank you, you have fulfilled your promise once again!"

Cao Xing also started to laugh.

Come to think of it, the things he had promised seemed to have been realized one by one.

This is also a quality that a powerful lord should possess.

Only by keeping one's word and fulfilling promises one by one can one establish enough prestige.

Only then will more people be willing to risk their lives for you, and more talent will be willing to join you.

Cao Xing continued to ask, "Baradin, Tirnis, what are your plans for the next steps?"

The undead duke and the Black Knight looked at each other.

They knew that Cao Xing meant how to distribute the hundreds of thousands of undead in this ancient battlefield.

Duke Baradin replied, "I have discussed this with Commander Tirnis."

"Next, they will lead the majority of the undead to continue guarding the Gray City."

"And I will lead the other portion of the Ascalon undead back to the underground palace."

Cao Xing nodded slightly.

Must say, this is a very good choice.

Although there was nothing left worth guarding in that ancient battlefield, it was the home of this group of undead and also close to Cao Xing's territory.

In other words, this group of undead had now become the guardians of Cao Xing's territory.

If anything happens, he can immediately find this group of undead to help.

At the same time, Duke Baradin said, "Lord Cao Xing, please give me back the Book of Undead I gave you last time."

Although Cao Xing was a bit confused, he still took out the Book of Undead.

Anyway, the previous summoning charges on it had been used up, and it was useless.

And at this moment, after taking the Book of Undead, Baradin took out that golden crown again.

As he activated it, a surging blue undead power began to pour into the book.

"Rustle…"

The Book of Undead began to flip frantically.

A massive amount of undead aura surged!

And Cao Xing also noticed that Duke Baradin's aura was becoming increasingly weak as the undead power was injected.

Even his level was constantly decreasing.

Level 69… Level 68… Level 67…

In the end, it dropped directly to level 51…

Just barely touching the threshold of Tier 6.

Cao Xing asked with a solemn expression, "Your Excellency Duke, what are you doing?"

Duke Baradin's undead ghost fire dimmed significantly, and then he said weakly.

"I have injected more undead power into this Book of Undead, you follow the previous method."

"When you encounter danger, you can summon a total of one hundred thousand undead, including myself and Tirnis, to fight for you at once."

A look of intense shock suddenly appeared in Cao Xing's eyes!

Summoning one hundred thousand undead at once, which also included a large number of leaders, commanders, and even Sovereign-level creatures!

What a terrifying power this was, it went without saying!

At the same time, he also felt admiration for Duke Baradin's character.

After all, like these indigenous people, before joining a territory, they couldn't level up by killing enemies like others.

Under normal circumstances, to rise from level 51 to level 70, it would take a lot of time.

But now, to repay Cao Xing, he was willing to let his strength drop by a large margin!

Duke Baradin continued, "However, because my strength is insufficient, this Book of Undead only has two uses."

Upon hearing this, Cao Xing immediately replied, "That is enough, thank you, Your Excellency Duke."

And this undead waved his hand.

"You are welcome, you are more important than us."

"Even if we are completely wiped out, we must ensure your safety."

"Lord Cao Xing, the moment the Blood Legion appears, I will lead all the Ascalon undead to fight for you!"

After speaking, he handed the book over.

And Cao Xing also solemnly accepted it!

[Obtained: Book of the Ascalon Dead]

…

"Then, since matters are finished, we will not disturb you further."

After saying this, Duke Baradin prepared to lead the other undead back.

However, before leaving, he added one more sentence.

"Lord Cao Xing, the strength of the Blood Legion is beyond your imagination."

"Even if we have the assistance of Tirnis's hundred thousand undead army, we cannot resist such a powerful enemy."

"Before that, you need to make more preparations."

Upon hearing this, Cao Xing nodded solemnly again.

He also attached great importance to the threat of the Blood Legion.

After all, that is a powerful existence that has wiped out many kingdoms and caused countless killings!

Besides that, there are the Watchers behind them, which is also a colossal entity.

"I understand, thank you for the reminder, Duke."

The duke waved his hand and turned around directly.

Soon, the twenty-thousand-strong undead army split into two waves and left.

One wave headed towards the Ascalon underground palace.

The other wave returned to the Gray City.
