Chapter 1765: Chapter 1765

From Old Bai, Du You finally learned who the ninth-tier strongmen actually were.

Previously, he had only heard their names. This time, however, he was able to learn something deeper. After all, Old Bai was one of the earliest strongmen and knew all the ninth-tier strongmen, with whom he had quite a good relationship.

The reason the Asia Alliance is rated as the strongest is because there are three ninth-tier professionals here, the most of any alliance.

Among the remaining four alliances, apart from the European Alliance, which also has two ninth-tier professionals, each alliance has only one. It’s fair to say their strength cannot compare at all.

If the ninth-tier or even the eighth-tier could act freely, perhaps there wouldn’t even be a role for anyone else.

The American Alliance, which jumps around the most, is actually the weakest in terms of ninth-tier strength. Plus, because the American Alliance venerates the power of technology, they always prefer following a technological system or auxiliary technological system, leading to poor training grounds for their new generation.

Furthermore, because of their vast lands but sparse population, they have even fewer of the new generation. So even though their foundational strength is good, the higher up you go, the more ordinary their power becomes. Old Bai utterly looks down on them.

"Young friend, now our academy branch relies entirely on you. Once you reach the ninth tier, you’ll be the leader of our branch," Old Bai looked at Du You with eyes full of brightness.

Du You hurriedly waved his hand: "Old Bai, you’re too kind. There are still many seniors, and you are also at the peak of the eighth tier."

"Haha, I’m old, and back then my foundation was unstable, reaching this level is already my limit. Basically, it’s impossible for me to advance further, even supplementing with external force won’t work. You don’t need to be modest; I can sense that you already have one foot in that level, as long as you work hard and nothing unexpected happens you’ll definitely reach it."

Du You neither denied nor confirmed, and simply shifted the topic.

"By the way, what is our main task this time? Have the beastman’s strongmen appeared yet?"

"No, not yet. The beastman’s attack strategy is to first press forward with a large army, using numbers to weaken the opponent’s strength, simultaneously depleting their own population, while forcing the opponent’s strongmen to show themselves."

"Even if they invade our place, it’s the same, the strongmen of the beastman won’t come out. But we need to be careful not to let them exploit any gaps. If we can find them ahead of time, that would be even better."

Saying this, Old Bai smiled and looked at Du You: "I heard you have the ability to summon undead, create them on a large scale, and they can exist far from yourself."

Seeing Old Bai’s demeanor, Du You knew the other party was up to something.

"Indeed I have, but their strength is not very strong. If I need to create seventh-tier undead, I’m afraid I can’t create too many."

"You can create seventh-tier undead! That’s fantastic. I have a high-level skill scroll here, used to form a military formation with a large number of summoned creatures. I remember you don’t have this kind of ability, right? Rest assured, skills above seventh-tier are direct law runes, won’t cause you any harm. If you feel affected, you can dispel it anytime."

Is this even possible, Du You didn’t really know about this.

But Du You still shook his head: "Forget it, my combat style is already shaped, it’s pointless to suddenly add other skills." Du You’s refusal left Old Bai somewhat disappointed.

But at the same time, Old Bai’s eyes flashed with appreciation. So young, yet aware of what he needs and doesn’t need, able to resist temptation, no wonder he reached such strength at such a tender age. It seems, he can be trusted.

Du You didn’t know what Old Bai was thinking, but giving up such a skill made little difference to him.

Indeed, forming a military formation might unleash great power, but what use is that to himself?

Even if this power enhancement is not much better than his own strength, a large army has to be formed. When he breaks through to the ninth tier, he will have to build a new, stronger summoned army.

It’s a waste of time and resources. With so many powerful summoned creatures, does he need such a method?

Moreover, the Dark Vine Demon Emperor himself possesses a similar military formation ability, which is quite effective, is there any need for him to do it?

"In that case, let’s first create some undead. On one hand, undead armies have good strength, and they can’t be eaten when killed, serving as a restraint against the beastman’s forces. On the other hand, they can make use of corpses, undead summoned by others probably can’t compare to yours."

Old Bai added after some thought: "I wonder if you want to establish your territory here. If you have a territory, then in the ensuing lower-tier battles, you would play a bigger role."

Du You shook his head: "It doesn’t fit the rules, forget it, I can do well myself."

Du You’s oil-and-salt-not-enter attitude and refusal to accept any benefits left Old Bai somewhat troubled. If Du You doesn’t accept benefits, it’s hard to make requests in the future. Maybe Du You himself doesn’t have demands, but he has many juniors and family members.

Ultimately, Du You went to a place where corpses were stored and started summoning. Du You didn’t summon undead of lower levels, he directly summoned a large number of sixth-tier Dragon Tomb Guardians.

Unsuitable corpses were all summoned into Demonic Flame Skeletons, then after accumulating a large number of Demonic Flame Skeletons, using seventh-tier corpses to sacrifice and summon a seventh-tier Demonic Flame Bone Dragon, this entity being quite formidable among the seventh-tier.

Additionally, Du You summoned seventh-tier Dragon Tomb Guardians. On the current battlefield, not only are undead needed to counter regular armies, but seventh-tier undead are needed everywhere for reconnaissance.

If they can find or lure out the beastman’s strongmen and hunt them in advance, the battle could end sooner.

It must be said, beastmen are a group of madmen, a band of lunatics all obsessed with combat. They’re not worried about beastmen taking time to recoup, if they can’t conquer here, they’ll attack other worlds, thus driving them away is best.

With Du You’s high-level undead creature support, the battlefield in this world became considerably easier.

However, with only Du You, the overall battle situation was not much changed. If not for being able to provide some seventh-tier undead, personal strength really had no significance in this context.

Unfortunately, seventh-tier undead can’t be created randomly; doing so would harm oneself. Manufacturing Demonic Flame Bone Dragons doesn’t bring harm, but requires sacrificing a lot of Demonic Flame Skeletons, even Du You must prepare for a long time to manage it.

Having seventh-tier undead creatures allowed for the world’s reconnaissance to gradually unfold. With time passing, more and more professionals gathered in this world.
