Chapter 1375: Chapter 1375
In this world, Divine Spirits are after all just legends. Shaliya found some information from various legends and ancient records, but whether they are truly comprehensive is uncertain.
However, the Desert Death God should be within the territory of the Quicksand Empire; it’s just that its exact location is unknown.
Du You does not want to provoke that entity for now. If it appears, who knows what trouble it might cause. The Eye of the Death God’s killing move can be used as a trump card against tier-six adversaries, but it is completely ineffective against a tier-seven.
Ultimately, Du You decided to slowly erode the enemy using soldiers while simultaneously opening a passage to the Grey Elf territory to directly attack the Dark Empire. After all, there is definitely no connection between the Dark Empire and the Nature Divine Spirit.
"So, let’s leave this area as it is. We won’t touch this side, and the other places can be fully forested, we can speed it up appropriately," Du You marked a circle on the map.
This circle was the original desert range of the Quicksand Empire, now only less than one-third of the desert range remains. This part of the desert was created over the years by the Quicksand Empire through frequent sandstorm attacks on the outer world.
Following Du You’s decision, Shaliya immediately issued orders, and the entire empire sprang into action.
As the current hegemon of the east, the erupting power of the Shenghai Empire was awe-inspiring. Trees were being planted everywhere, and Du You only needed to ensure the safety of these people.
Shaliya planned to first use oasis trees to change the natural environment, turning deserts into oases. Then, part of these oasis trees would be removed to develop different areas based on varied environments, transforming them into the most suitable places for humans and other creatures to thrive. They are not Elves; there is no need to turn the entire world into a vast forest.
Meanwhile, Du You also got busy. He usually refined his skills in his own territory, and when he had time, he would use the Teleportation Array to travel to various battlefields and transform the collected corpses.
King of Skeletons: Creates Demonic Flame Skeletons from corpses, possessing inherent Demonic Flames skills that can burn nearby enemies. Demonic Flame Skeletons are level 28, cannot exceed 5 levels above the corpse’s level in life. The casting range is the diameter (level × 10) meters. Demonic Flame Skeletons have no quantity limits, no duration limits, cannot be included in summoning space, damage against Light Attribute doubled. Sacrificing 1 million Demonic Flame Skeletons can summon a tier 48 Demonic Flame Bone Dragon, which has high intelligence and unlimited existence time. (Level 56, 10 stars)
With the power level of the King of Skeletons increased, the highest level of Demonic Flame Skeletons has now reached level 28, late third tier. At this level, it’s quite a formidable force even in Yalan Continent.
The corpses left behind at the frontline, most of them of not low level, and after being enhanced by five levels, many can reach level 28.
A large number of Demonic Flame Skeletons appeared, joining the battlefield, creating a new phenomenon on the battlefield.
The Dark Empire continuously created various modified creatures, and the Quicksand Empire did not care much about the lower-tier Sandpeople. Hence, some immigrant Sandpeople, like other Magical Beasts, were transformed into monsters and joined the battlefield.
At this moment, the battlefield was intensively heated, forming a spectacle of a sea of people against another sea of people.
"These Sandpeople are really going too far, transforming their own kind , aren’t they afraid of the revolt?"
Shaliya shook her head upon hearing this, "Sandpeople are different from us humans; their desire for power is stronger than any other race. They would do it even at the risk of death, let alone just being transformed."
During this time, Shaliya constantly had communication open, staying in contact with their side.
Du You bought a more advanced set of communication equipment on the Magic Network, and with this set, he is now able to communicate freely and clearly no matter where in the world he is.
Of course, for even higher-tier worlds, more advanced equipment would be required.
"Why bother with so much? Let’s just do our own thing. Oh, by the way, there seem to be one million sub-par Demonic Flame Skeletons here, just enough to summon a Bone Dragon. This will make future battles even easier."
Even when competing with cannon fodder, one must enhance the quality of the cannon fodder. Du You summoned Demonic Flame Skeletons while creating a Bone Dragon, then moved on to the next location.
In the north, Elsa was extremely busy; although she wanted to come and find Du You, she could only vent her frustration through communication, as a passage in the Grey Elf Forest there had been gradually developed.
On the other side of the passage, the scope of tree planting was continuously expanding, forming a pathway. The Beastmen were thoroughly connected with the Dark Empire.
Beastmen also detested the Dark Empire deeply due to these modifications; many Beastmen looked down on it. Of course, some Beastmen liked it, but under Elsa’s suppression, this kind of opinion was almost non-existent.
Outside the northern passage, there was also a vast number of Demonic Flame Skeletons, constantly fighting against various modified creatures from the opposite side.
The variety and quantity of modified creatures from the Dark Empire were greater; many after thorough modification, their original forms were unrecognizable. All kinds of bizarre designs could be seen there. Googlᴇ search 𝔫𝔬𝔳𝔢𝔩~𝕗𝕚𝕣𝕖~𝙣𝙚𝙩
Unprepared individuals might find it difficult to sleep after seeing such a scene. Fortunately, once these corpses are transformed into Demonic Flame Skeletons, they all look the same; otherwise, our own skeleton army might also end up looking very strange.
In the rear, most of the Beastmen were just waving flags and cheering, or invoking blessings in the back to empower others.
Some Beastmen occasionally joined the battlefield; fighting made the Beastmen’s blood boil even more.
All in all, from the east to the central regions of the continent, battles were incessant. This was a battle of cannon fodder; without the Dark Empire’s cannon fodder being considerably worn down, a major battle was impossible.
However, both side’s tier-five and tier-six powerhouses were already stationed near the front line, just waiting for the battle to start.
Du You was in no hurry; the longer his territory’s time lapsed, the more his troop strength increased. Delay tactics might be useful for others, but for him, it would only backfire.
"Ah, if it wasn’t for considering the Desert Death God, I would have bulldozed my way through long ago," Du You lamented.
This great war definitely won’t be short. When the time comes to massively attack the Dark Empire after thoroughly compressing the Quicksand Empire, it would probably take quite some time. According to Shaliya’s calculation, unless power is revealed, this battle could last for years.
And now, every once in a while, Du You has to come back and create a batch of Demonic Flame Skeletons.
