But their bodies would soon succumb to the encroaching virus and darkness, ultimately collapsing in agony.
"How could you possess two domains?" Meyers exclaimed in astonishment, helplessly witnessing the disappearance of all his soldiers.
"There is much you remain unaware of.
" Bayou advanced step by step towards Meyers, who perceived him as a reaper, mercilessly harvesting the lives of all present.
"Bayou is truly pathetic.
He can't even touch me.
" Silver, she remarked, observing the slain Meyers.
This was Silvershi's first opponent since ascending to the king level.
She had hoped to hone her skills, but found Meyers to be exceedingly weak.
Indeed, he is the feeblest king I have encountered.
By you concurred, retracting his domain and sighthe.
The summoning of T Luo and Meer's corpses would require some time.
So, By and Silver, she waited in silence.
Although Silver, she was engaged in magical combat.
Bayou understood that she belonged to the Tiger Clan, a warrior rather than a mage, and her true strength lay in close quarters.
A total of 9,500 undead were summoned, resulting in the creation of a skeletal dragon army.
While skeletal dragons could not be summoned in double numbers, each one was significantly stronger than two skeletons, ghosts, zombies, death knights, or gargoyles.
Should there be more corpses by you would even aspire to assemble a phantom dragon army.
15 minutes later, the summoning of the two king level corpses was completed, yielding one gargoyle and one destroyer.
After careful consideration, Bayou noted that neither of these entities feared typical magical assaults.
While he was uncertain whether they would counter lord level adversaries, he was confident they would pose a threat to mages.
Two additional royal level warriors have been added, bringing the total to four in just two short days.
This surge has greatly bolstered Bayu's confidence and further solidified her resolve to confront that group of lords headon.
Come, let me take you to my castle for a visit.
With the summoning of two corpses complete, Bayou decided not to waste any more time here and swiftly prepared to return.
She communicated with Lia, ensuring that she would be promptly informed upon the latter's arrival, allowing for a quick response.
"All right," In she replied, and the two mounted the small ice creature, accompanied by a host of undead as they began their journey back to the castle.
Chapter 2011 Lia as decision with a heavy heart.
Liierre returned to the Alliance, grateful for Bayu's assistance in navigating the peril they faced, allowing them to remain in their current location for the time being.
The Elemental Alliance was a creation he had meticulously forged, and the exchanges with the other four members lingered vividly in his memory.
Technically speaking, the opposing party was not a traitor.
Rather, they had merely deviated from the collective decisions made by the Alliance members.
The Elemental Alliance bore no ties to Bayou.
Whether they chose to align with the Alliance or remain neutral was a decision of their own making.
Nonetheless, Bayou's demeanor remained relatively amicable towards them.
While others may not perceive this, Lia, having interacted with Bayou on numerous occasions, could easily sense it.
Given this, he pondered the rationale behind establishing such an adversarial relationship.
The struggle among the myriad races did not necessitate the annihilation of all opponents.
The dynamics between leaders did not equate to absolute enmity.
Lia comprehended the implications of his thoughts considering the sale of information about Bayou in exchange for resources.
Confident that Bayou would not be able to trace them, rendering fear unnecessary.
However, such an action would undoubtedly strain their relationship with Bayou, leaving them with no prospects for survival in the desolate plains.
Lungia as conflict was not merely about selling information as an alliance member.
His allegiance lay with the Alliance, and he was contemplating its future development.
Although some had breached the Alliance's decisions, it did not warrant labeling them as traitors.
Lia harbored feelings for everyone and the Alliance as a whole.
Resolute determination began to reflect in Lung Jia esgay as he devised a strategy.
This matter could not be disclosed to the other members of the alliance as it would create rifts in trust among them.
Lung Jier resolved to act in accordance with the circumstances openly providing a passage for the opposing party and subsequently relocating.
Of course, this relocation hinged on Bayu's victory.
If Byu were to falter, their move would become unnecessary.
As for the information by you had provided, he would disseminate it as planned.
Yet, he would never betray this so-called traitor.
That would truly constitute the betrayal of an ally, something Lia could not bring himself to do.
At worst, they could all depart together.
The vastness of the magical continent offered ample freedom, and could they truly fear being found by a single lord like Bayou? With his mind made up, Lung G swiftly summoned everyone to his castle to announce his decision.
Before long, the four bewildered individuals arrived at Lung Jia as Castle, uncertain of the purpose of the gathering.
Such convocations typically indicated discussions of significant matters.
Otherwise, they would remain in their own castles, communicating through the system.
The crisis in the Gata Empire had been resolved with a human general and a king from the mage association, defeated by the necromancer lord, who had triumphed against two foes, but had sustained injuries in the process.
She fled towards the southeast where I had been covertly following, losing her trail in a swamp that I suspected housed her castle.
As Long Jia concluded, he surveyed the four, observing their expressions.
While they remained unaware of the implications of his next mention of Bayu Castle, Lyn Jan was the first to react, casting a surprise glance at Lia.
Indeed, now that we have a retreat, why not divulge her intelligence? Aren't those lords searching for her? We could seize the opportunity to reap substantial profits.
Even if she ultimately prevails, we could easily relocate before she discovers us, rendering her a mere spectre of concern.
At this moment, Lia articulated a strategy that starkly contrasted his previous stance of non-involvement.
Why had he suddenly reversed his position? The desolate plains were already bereff of resources, further exacerbated by the influence of the Gata Empire.
Remaining here served little purpose.
If we could provide those lords with a passage, even disclosing the location of the undead lord's castle, we could amass considerable wealth and depart unscathed.
What could be more advantageous? Lia's analysis indeed stir the others.
His reasoning was compelling.
Staying here would only lead to doom upon the next assault from the Gata Empire.
Therefore, it seemed prudent to uproot and profit before leaving.
Blast it.
I should have insisted you heed my council earlier.
Why didn't you entertain this notion then? Fong Shia mused, perplexed.
Things are different now.
The undead lord is wounded, providing those lord the chance to defeat her, and they are now aware of her castle's location.
Coupled with the turmoil within the Gata Empire, the prospect of relocation has become appealing.
Lia elucidated once more.
Shia remained tacider, evidently supporting whichever scenario favored the alliance.
Lynhan too fell silent.
His instincts signaling that Lia's reaction was somewhat a miss, though he could not articulate why.
Fong Shao, however, expressed his full agreement.
Lu Yao wore a pensive expression.
Her usual vivacity noticeably diminished in recent days who will reach out to the members of the Lord alliance.
Upon hearing Lia, Linhun and Shia fell into his silence.
As Fong Shao prepared to speak, a soft voice interrupted.
I shall take on that task.
Lu Yao declared instantly capturing Lia attention.
In that moment, Lia felt an unwavering certainty that Lu Yao was indeed the one poised to betray them.
Very well.
We shall entrust this matter to Sister Lu.
He acquiesced.
Before long, the assembly dispersed.
As they departed, Linghan contemplated saying something, but ultimately refrained, sighing as he exited.
Lia watched the four leave his castle, his gaze lingering on Lu Yao<unk>s retreating form.
Alas, I grant you one more chance.
I hope you refrain from actions that jeopardize the alliance's interests in the future.
Such foolishness seemed uniquely hers, especially when collaboration was an option.
