The Rise of the Cemetery

But what you pay for is what you get.

After this battle, the 43rd layer of the abyss plane lost the ability to resist the forces of the cemetery. As long as it takes time, it is only a matter of time before the chaotic land licks its wounds and sweeps away those chickens and dogs.

What is more important is the improvement of the high-end combat power of the cemetery.

According to the rough statistics of the demon wizard, the highest level in the cemetery system is the level 18 ghost dragon Moros, followed by nearly 20 level 15 powerhouses. Among them, the blood demon is on the verge of breaking through, and it is very likely that he will become the first hero in the cemetery to upgrade to level 16 in a short period of time. The remaining heroes and mercenaries are mostly concentrated in the 12-14 stage.

The most dazzling ones are the three new cemetery heroes: Death Prophet Farina, Forgotten Mage Pakvik, and Necromancer Kel'Thuzad. Before they joined the battle, they were all small people at level five or six, but after a big battle, they had climbed to level eleven, catching up to the tail of the mainstream troops.

However, these are hidden benefits. If you want to grasp them in your hands, it depends on how you perform in the follow-up period. Other cemetery heroes and mercenaries will gradually return to their own positions, while the demon wizard will be busy for a long, long time...

In order to reduce the burden of the demon wizard, Li Xun left the three newly grown heroes in the land of chaos to assist him in rebuilding the cemetery city and spreading the flames of war.

Now that the battle has started, it is impossible to stop halfway. Although the plane lord has fallen, the fleeing party members still exist. Even the reconstruction of the cemetery cannot stop the raging flames of war. For some time to come, new flames of war will be ignited everywhere in the plane, and they will not consider stopping until the forces of the cemetery have wiped out the entire plane.

Considering the needs of Land of Chaos and Stratholme, there will not be too many big battles after Land of Chaos, and will be mainly small elite battles, so heroes and mercenaries are properly tilted; while Stratholme will face the Undead Council directly The challenge of the remnant forces urgently needs high-end combat power, so the addition of the ghost dragon Moros will greatly alleviate the crisis in the cemetery.

Except for some promising cemetery mercenaries who are specially recruited, other mercenaries are not mandatory and can move freely. How to keep them will depend on the methods of the acting city lords, and Li Xun will not intervene any more.

After a summary discussion, the subordinates of the cemetery took their positions and started post-war recovery with their own unique operation mode. A large number of demon corpses were thrown into the sea of ​​bones, which continued to increase the quality of the sea of ​​bones. Some demon corpses that were well preserved or of a good level were sent to the palace of the underworld, where they were transformed into corresponding cemetery creatures.

The huge workload made all the remaining buildings in the cemetery fully operational, and the entire chaotic place became a lively construction site. The remaining abominations became the hardest laborers, moving corpses, tearing down dilapidated buildings, leveling the land, and busy running around under the command of high-ranking undead.

Liches have also become the busiest group. Concocting corpses, refining undead creatures, drawing special magic circles for the interior of buildings that rise from the ground, there are countless jobs waiting for them to do at all times. If it weren't for their indefatigable special physique, sooner or later they would die of exhaustion on the front line.

At this moment, Li Xun was also forced to be sandwiched between them, frowning and restoring the buildings of the units that were damaged during the war one by one, and then started the construction of the Bone Dragon, the seventh-level unit, with great anticipation.

Dragon Tomb, a Tier 7 unit building in the cemetery, can create bone dragons. 1 piece/25 days, 1 piece/100 soul crystals.

Ghost Dragon, the 7th-level advanced unit in the cemetery, has mastered curse attacks and dark spells. 1 piece/30 days, 1 piece/180 soul crystals.

Dracolich, a 7th-level advanced unit in the cemetery, has mastered all dark spells. 1 piece/30 days, 1 piece/220 soul crystals.

The Dragon Tomb, as the name suggests, is the cemetery of the Dragon Clan. From the appearance point of view, it is a huge cemetery full of huge skeletons. The half-buried giant dragon skeleton inside is obviously different from the white white bones flooding in the sea of ​​bones. Not only are the joints thick and the bones are full, but there is also a layer of fluorescence flashing on the outside.

The ghostly dragon and dracolich structures are located inside the Dragon Tomb. The ghostly dragon building looks like a swamp rising with gray miasma from the outside, while the dracolich building looks like a small altar.

The difficulty of building the Dragon Tomb is extremely high. Even with Li Xun's current physique, he can only guarantee the construction needs of the Chaos Land. Those cemetery cities can only wait for his body and spirit to recover before slowly building them.

It's a pity that the construction cycle of each Tier 7 unit takes 30 days. If you want to mass-produce it quickly, you really have to wait. Moreover, when the bone dragons produced in the cemetery climbed out of the building, they were all at level 7 of Chiguoguo. Although their physical fitness was much higher than that of the low-level cemetery troops, they needed constant fighting and fighting to grow up. accumulation. Therefore, if you want to form a bone dragon army in a short period of time, you must pay a lot of effort.

After the war, Li Xun and other cemetery executives were very busy with the aftermath. It was not until everything was on the right track that Li Xun took the opportunity to go to Stratholme. On the one hand, it is to get a close look at the current situation of the frontline of the war in the undead world, and on the other hand, it is also to build the Tier 7 arms buildings in this city first.

Some time ago, the land of chaos faced the attack of demons. Li Xun went all over the place to mobilize all the mobile forces, but he didn't move a single soldier in Stratholme, because the combat mission here was equally arduous.

In the Stratholme Mage Tower, Li Xun sat down with the Skeleton King and had a detailed talk, and only then did he basically grasp the current battle situation.

First, the big picture is still good.

On the front line, the undead forces controlled by the undead council are still in a stalemate with the zombie lord. This war has been fought for more than two months, and judging from the current trend, it will continue for a long time. From this point of view, there is a bigger goal that draws the attention of the Undead Council, and the cemetery has a chance to get in the way.

Second, hidden worries still exist.

Although the Undead Council was inextricably fighting against the zombie lord on the front line, it had sufficient initiative and belonged to the attacking side, while the zombie lord was beaten and disarmed, and the situation was very passive. According to the news from Alsace from the front line, the undead forces have also noticed the existence of the cemetery forces recently. It seems that a big man is rushing to the rear to stabilize the situation, which makes the Ebon Blade Knights become cautious.

Li Xun also made a promise to the Skeleton King. Once the chaos is restored, the strategic center of gravity of all the cemetery cities will be tilted towards Stratholme. At that time, they can let go of their hands and feet and fight with the Undead Council.

However, Li Xun also repeatedly warned that Stratholme, as the core of the war mill, can be exposed, but the sleeping place thousands of miles away must be carefully hidden. That timeless battle in Eternal Night City made Li Xun understand that the current cemetery city cannot withstand the full attack of holy mages, let alone legendary mages.

Li Xun reintroduced Moros, the ghost dragon who returned with him, to Skeleton King, which made him also happy. Why is Stratholme so passive now? Isn't it because there is a looming legendary mage sitting in the undead council. Therefore, the lack of high-end combat power makes the cemetery forces fearful, lest they touch the enemy's bottom line and cause catastrophe.

Now the cemetery finally has a strong man who belongs to his own side and can fight. Although he is still far behind the legendary mage, but relying on the cemetery city for overall defense, as long as the enemy does not hold the mentality of dying together, there will be no such thing The fear of perishing.

Although the ghost dragon Moros is also a powerful cemetery creature at level 18, it was created after all, and it will take a period of time to develop its combat power. Just during this period of time, let it sit in Stratholme and cooperate with Alsace's Ebon Blade Knights to deter enemies with different intentions.

The Skeleton King has been the acting city lord for a long time. He has always been at the forefront of the war and is most familiar with the situation in the undead world. Therefore, he directly suggested that Stratholme might as well display the banner of a level 18 ghost dragon when he is fighting abroad, so that he can expand his power in an open and honest manner, and also save the opponent from being suspicious and causing other troubles.

Why did the Council of the Undead draw experts from the front line of the war where the battle was raging to deal with the provocation from the cemetery? It's not because they don't know enough about the details here, so they are eager to send a big man to stabilize the rear. If the cemetery took the initiative to reveal a little information, it might be able to dispel the other party's doubts, and regard the cemetery's attack posture as a normal expansion of the power of a newly grown undead lord.

Li Xun sat quietly in the first place, looking at the tall and powerful Skeleton King in front of him, with a body size of 5 meters, he couldn't help but feel a lot of emotion in his heart. In contrast, the Skeleton King was the first cemetery hero to follow him. Although his potential was not high, he managed to arrange the undead world in an orderly manner with his own strength, making him a success. It has established a talent factory for the cemetery forces to continuously cultivate core backbones.

It stands to reason that such an achievement should have removed the "generation" in front of the title of the acting city lord, but the development of the form does not allow this.

At present, the power of the cemetery is in a period of rapid expansion. With the construction of cemetery cities one by one, the front line of the war is also constantly moving. Sealing the city lord at this time always feels a bit like binding one's own hands and feet, after all, it is not yet the time to sit on the ground and seal the king.

Besides, the cemetery city does not need too much management and care, but a war stronghold that supports war with war. The construction of each cemetery city usually means that the surrounding area is the forefront of the war, so everything revolves around the war, and there is no need to consider any nonsense such as logistics and morale.

However, a general like the Skeleton King who pioneered one side can't always keep him so unknown, and the title of city lord can't be changed, so he can consider making some compensation in terms of military rank.

Li Xun listened to the Skeleton King describe in detail the recent development of Stratholme, as well as the proven surrounding situation, and more importantly, how to intervene in the war between the two distant lords.

For the details, Li Xun did not pay too much attention, but combined with what Skeleton King said, he repeatedly thought about the balance and inclination of resources among the major cemetery cities. With professional war generals like Skeleton King, Demon Wizard, and Alsace standing in front of him, he, the cemetery master, only needs to grasp the general direction and win people's hearts, and he can do everything else.

Participating in these several battles, rather than saying that Li Xun is the commander of one side, it is better to say that he is just a bystander spellcaster, and he is the kind of spellcaster who eats experience for nothing.
