Era of the transmigrating earth-Chapter 2153: The City of Death Takes Shape

This city that withdrew in defense ultimately did not hold. The city lord was just a warrior, not a mage, so nothing special was prepared inside the city.

There were no mage towers or powerful magical creations for defense and attack, only the city lord’s personal strength, which resulted in being killed by a bone snake before the second undead even made an appearance.

The city was swiftly occupied, and the residents of this city were humans, which made Du You feel slightly more at ease.

His subordinate city finally didn’t consist entirely of alien beings. And with human cultivation methods, Du You knew a lot. By disseminating some secret methods, many experts could quickly be developed.

With benefits like these, it became easier for the humans to accept him. As this city was conquered, a large surrounding area also nominally belonged to him. Several cities were connected, and the scope was vast.

The nearby cities finally realized something was amiss here.

After investigation, the city lords, who hardly interacted before, finally opened remote communication.

"You all know what’s going on here, right? That unlucky fellow Has is dead, and their city was taken over by a group of undead creatures."

"We knew this long ago, tell us something we don’t know."

"Alright, then I’ll tell you. After my investigation, the undead creatures on the other side are very strong. They already have three cities, two undead cities, and numerous kobold and goblin legions."

"Trash legions like those, what use are they?" someone expressed disdain.

The other person immediately said, "Don’t underestimate them. The other side, through some unknown means, has made those kobold and goblin legions quite formidable. There are many tier-six soldiers among them. Such soldiers are absolute elites among us."

Originally, some disdainful people finally changed their expressions. Tier-six, they are indeed elite among elites, incomparable to ordinary armies. Even among their own, there aren’t many. And tier-six are treasures, as tier-seven powerhouses, the city’s backbone, ascend from tier-six.

Suddenly, an elder spoke, "No need to worry, they were raised through secret methods, otherwise, they wouldn’t appear so quickly." Hearing this, everyone breathed a sigh of relief.

Indeed, if they weren’t raised, how could so many appear? If they had this many strong fighters all along, they wouldn’t have always been retreating underground. Yes, these guys really lived underground, not in the underworld, but by digging holes underground.

The underworld is a serious threat, but digging holes underground is like being a rat.

"Say something useful, wasn’t it just a city that was destroyed? How many cities haven’t been destroyed over the years? Just the undead, though dangerous to ordinary people, it’s nothing to us."

No one wants an undead outbreak because the undead desecrate the dead, and no one wants to be controlled to fight for others after death. It’s morally unacceptable, but for the strong, they really don’t worry. Each undead outbreak is a good chance for them to win people’s hearts.

Many below see the undead as if they’re looking at credit and achievements.

The opponent lightly tapped the table, "Don’t underestimate them. These undead are different from usual, their strength is not to be underestimated. Don’t forget, a city was destroyed."

The person speaking grew increasingly green, although they were originally green.

"Through my research, they have at least five tier-eight strongmen, and their power is substantial."

"Hmph, just undead, how strong can they be?" someone disdainfully remarked.

"Shut up, Has was killed in a one-on-one battle, you know his strength, right?"

This silenced everyone, and many people’s expressions turned serious. Being able to become a city lord as a warrior and suppress another tier-eight under him for his own, Has’s strength was not simple.

Reaching mid-tier eight among tier-eights, he ranked top three among them. But killed in a one-on-one battle, without even a chance to flee, that’s not simple.

And there are at least five such undead creatures. That means a single city alone is no match for them. No, even two powerful cities together cannot handle it, no wonder a meeting was called.

Originally indifferent guys finally became serious.

"Alright, let’s not say more useless things. Our problem now is figuring out how to deal with them. If they are allowed to develop, the consequences will be terrible. Remember that prophecy?"

"The power of death will return, the shadow over the land will become everyone’s nightmare? But wasn’t that prophecy just ravings? Is it even credible?" This was a prophecy circulating in their area.

The person who spoke this was a madman, although it was widespread, no one believed it.

The forces in this area are not simple, an apocalypse, really?

"That person may be mad, but we don’t know what powers he possesses. After all, many true prophesiers seem insane too. This matter cannot be ignored."

The earlier elder spoke again, "That’s right, regardless of prophecies, those undead developing is troublesome. Undead creatures convert living beings into undead, causing tremendous environmental damage. If they continue, our resources here may be severely affected."

That’s practical; without personal gain, who wants to do meaningless things.

In their view, undead are not much different from them, just a different survival form.

"Then let’s discuss how to unite and deal with them. I think at least gathering ten tier-eight strongmen is necessary."

"Ten? You overestimate them. They only have five. No matter how strong, seven or eight of us are enough."

"Enough, I said at least five, not sure how many exactly. Moreover, they might have a stronger one lurking, otherwise, those undead wouldn’t be so coordinated. You know undead have strict hierarchies, right?"

Indeed, making powerful undead creatures obedient requires an even more powerful undead creature.
