Global Game: I, the Necromancer, am the scourge-Chapter 581 - 379: Annihilating the Surrounding Lords_2
If three strikes couldn’t kill the target, there were still more than a dozen waiting within the death cloud!
Almost instantaneously, a Lord who was hiding in the Lord’s Mansion, eating hotpot and singing, carefree and showing off his dance moves with a swig of alcohol, suddenly met his demise.
He died inexplicably.
He casually summoned a group of Little Skeletons to start smashing the territory, turning it into ruins, and recovering a certain amount of materials.
Meanwhile, Zi Liyuan packed up the Lord’s corpse and took away the [Heart of the Castle] that had formed after destroying the Lord’s Mansion.
He left behind a Spectral Dragon BOSS to temporarily watch over the smashing Little Skeletons, to prevent them from being completely annihilated by the ghosts in the night.
Zi Liyuan then rode the death cloud again, commencing a carpet-style search.
But this time, he made an unexpected discovery.
Villages appeared one after another on the map display.
Only when he examined closely with his Spirit did he realize that all these villages were ghost villages!
"Kulong, did your Spectral Dragon underling notice these villages when passing by here?"
The villages shown on the map display numbered at least a dozen, and they contained quite a few life essences.
However, all these life essences were gathered within the villages, with not a single one stepping out of the village’s boundary.
This was indeed strange.
"My Lord, I have already asked. When passing by during the day, aside from the village ruins, there were no other anomalies," replied Kulong. His massive and ferocious head flickered with soul flames in his eye sockets, and after pondering silently for a few seconds, he finally spoke.
"In other words, these villages are ruins during the day, but at night, when covered by the deathly air, they transform into ghost villages."
After thinking for a moment, Zi Liyuan understood what was going on.
"Let’s go down and have a look."
He patted Dailisi’s slender neck. Black Dragon Sister spread her wings and dived down.
Then she directly hovered ten meters above a ghost village.
One after another, translucent spectres stood like statues in the central square of the ghost village, utterly motionless.
And in Zi Liyuan’s ear, the system prompt sounded.
[Ding, Lord Zi Liyuan, you have discovered a ghost village under the night sky. Would you like to recruit the spectres to become your territory’s subjects? Yes/No?]
"As expected, this is a construction for recruiting subjects."
Scanning the entire ghost village, there were four houses and forty spectres, all recruitable.
"Recruit!"
There were no conditions for recruiting these spectres—Zi Liyuan was ready to try recruiting them right away.
[Ding, Lord Zi Liyuan has successfully recruited spectres. Congratulations on acquiring forty ghostly subjects; you can have these ghostly subjects participate in work to help you build your territory.]
A burst of black light appeared abruptly, then shone upon the spectres in the square.
The spectres, previously transparent like statues, suddenly came to life as though resurrected, then knelt down before Zi Liyuan in unison.
"We greet our great Lord!"
The spectre subjects, all prostrated on the ground, sparked a gleam in Zi Liyuan’s eyes.
He had not been able to see the attributes of these ghostly subjects before, but now it was all laid bare.
They were all green elite template monsters, and their levels were a full 20 levels higher than that of Little Skeletons, which were only Level 1!
All these ghostly subjects were First Order Level 20 beings!
And each of the ghostly subjects possessed skills, all of which were related to life-profession skills for territory construction.
"Wow, this is a real serendipity."
Zi Liyuan’s eyes twinkled, especially upon seeing the positions of at least a dozen ghost villages shown on the map display.
"Kulong, take these ghostly subjects."
After giving Kulong a brief instruction, Zi Liyuan rode Dailisi towards the next ghost village.
The same system prompt sounded.
The same ghost village layout.
The same forty recruitable ghostly subjects.
He recruited all of them and then had Kulong take them along.
After visiting all fifteen ghost villages, he ended up recruiting a total of 600 ghostly subjects.
These ghost subjects not only include those with the green elite template, but also five with the rare blue template ghost subjects.
In their talent column, all have the passive skill "Intermediate Intelligence"!
Of course, there are other skills as well.
Two of them possess intermediate brewing skills, two have intermediate cooking skills, and the last one has intermediate animal husbandry skills.
Moreover, these professional life skills each come with three related professional blueprints.
Overall, the six hundred ghost subjects recruited are very impressive.
"Kulong, have a few Spectral Dragons take these ghost subjects back to the territory and hand them over to Yuer and the others to manage," Li Yuan commanded.
On such a dark and windy night for murder, it was not appropriate to bring these fragile subjects along.
"Yes, master!" Kulong replied.
"Let’s go, continue clearing out the nearby lords!" Li Yuan said eagerly.
During this carpet-style search, Zi Liyuan became even more meticulous.
The unexpected acquisition of a group of high-quality subjects led Lord Zi to some speculation.

Thus, while searching the lords’ territories, he was even more eager to see if he could encounter more recruitment buildings of this kind.
Indeed, he stumbled upon another one.
This was a mass graveyard, where amidst the disorderly and uneven graves, a ghostly green lantern floated.
As Zi Liyuan hovered over the mass graves on Dailisi, a system prompt sounded in his ear once more.
[Ding, Lord Zi Liyuan, in the cover of night you have found a graveyard, do you wish to recruit zombie soldiers? Yes/No?]
"As expected, a place filled with a dense death aura is also a recruitment point; the recruitment buildings for the Undead Race really fit the Underworld ethos," Zi Liyuan mused with a chuckle.
In the middle of the night, the surroundings were not only chilling and dim, but also a vast land of graves—who would willingly approach such a place?
"No wonder I haven’t heard anyone mention recruiting any undead troops in the chat channels," he pondered.
The place was downright creepy, making it clear to anyone that it was best avoided.
Perhaps only those of the death-related professions would be interested in such a location.
Considering this, Zi Liyuan narrowed his eyes and quickly opened the second page of his attribute panel, the Lord’s interface.
His gaze immediately fixed on the territory feature.
[Land of Death]!
The ability to recruit various kinds of undead troops—wasn’t this exactly the feature of the Land of Death?
So, was it his territory that influenced this area, resulting in the appearance of undead recruitment points?
Or was this place naturally a Land of Death?
Zi Liyuan opened the chat interface and then looked towards Xiao Yurou and Mo Yi.
Zi Liyuan: @Shen Yurou @Mo Yi, what are the features of your territories?
Shen Yurou: Why are you asking this? My territory’s feature is the Land of Machinery.
Mo Yi: What’s the matter, hubby? My territory’s feature is the Land of Bloodline.
Zi Liyuan: Nothing much, just noticed some interesting changes, I’ll explain later.
Lord Zi then opened the Blue Star chat channel.
No.1 Lord: A few questions—who is in the 10086 town area? Anyone active at night? Has anyone recruited undead troops in the nighttime wilds?

After repeating three times, the once-lively Blue Star chat channel fell eerily silent.
The appearance of the fearsome Zi Liyuan immediately made a group of people who had previously offended him extremely tense.
521521 Lord: Big Boss Zi, I am a delicate and stunning beauty, unable to even see my toes when I lower my head. Can I have a baby monkey with Big Boss Zi? If not, Mo Mo will ask again tomorrow about the baby monkey.
181818 Lord: 666...
171717 Lord: As expected, all the beauties belong to big bosses, single dogs are only fit to have the fifth daughter! (Ĭ^Ĭ)
1616 Lord: Big Boss Zi is not even idling at night, going for a stroll, eh? At night, there are usually ghosts about, and most lords would not venture out.
1616 Lord: As for the question about recruiting undead troops, as long as there is an undead recruitment building, you can naturally recruit them.
1616 Lord: However, undead recruitment buildings typically appear near territories with death-related features.
No.1 Lord: Thanks for letting me know!
"Indeed, these undead recruitment buildings that have appeared are related to the feature of my territory.
That is to say, having eliminated the surrounding lords, the Sea Sky Path has defaulted these areas as within the radiation range of my territory," Zi Liyuan concluded.
