Era of the transmigrating earth-Chapter 2165: Rapid Expansion of the Army

With Du You’s methods, using ordinary bones to mimic dragon bones is virtually indistinguishable from the real thing. Du You also commands a dragon clan, which has long been well-studied on all things related to dragons.

Now, these bones would require a ninth-tier pinnacle dragon to appear here to discern the differences between them and real dragon bones. But there are no ninth-tier pinnacle dragons in this world, nor are there any across the entire Outer World. Even in the outer realms, the strongest dragons are only at the late ninth-tier, let alone at the pinnacle level.

Regardless, these dragons have already deemed these undead as enemies.

Similarly, Du You had also found that battlefield, intending to use dragon corpses to create undead creatures.

The powerful defensive array was as good as nonexistent in front of Du You. Solving this structure was not difficult at all. By casually altering the operation of a few lines, the entire array collapsed on its own.

The thick, deathly aura below lit up Du You’s eyes. "Such a dense aura of death, if not for the array, powerful undead would have already formed. We can’t let it go to waste. Bodies nurtured by this deathly aura for such a long time will definitely be far more powerful as undead than they were in life."

"However, without this array, such a dense death energy wouldn’t have gathered here in the first place."

Lin Yushi was also correct; without this protection, the death energy would’ve dissipated long ago. Either a few undead would have formed, or these corpses would have naturally decayed and weathered away over time.

Of course, more likely, they would have been taken and used by someone, leaving not even a shred of bone.

Evidently, the Demon Ape Clan isn’t capable of creating such restrictions; only dragons could have created them.

And it’s clear that dragons aren’t very knowledgeable about this; they just blindly seal it away without clearing out the death energy. Although the bones inside won’t decay, they’re the finest materials for creating undead.

Du You is even certain their dragon tombs must have a similar situation.

If such a dragon tomb were found, it would be an enormous treasure for any undead mage.

"Alright, let it be here, then start building the city. I’ll first resurrect these undead. Yucha and Yu Shi, you help me collect the deathly aura." Though the two haven’t researched death energy, as parts of Du You, collecting the death aura was easy. With tasks divided, everyone moved quickly.

In just two days, a large number of undead creatures appeared here, and a massive city began to be constructed with this place as the center. But since no one came over, no one noticed.

After all, this is an ancient battlefield, sealed in nearby areas, and under the influence of death energy, this vicinity is unsuitable for any creature’s habitation. And without organisms, naturally, a city couldn’t be developed.

In this world, areas without many intelligent creatures dwelling are basically abandoned, unnoticed by anyone.

With Du You’s actions, many corpses in this place began to rise. First were those of the dragon clan’s Dragon Men and Dragon Beasts, as the number of dragons was relatively few, mainly relying on these subordinates to fight.

This world is no exception; the more powerful the creature, the lower their reproductive capability, which is quite normal.

Even though this world doesn’t interact with the outside, certain common themes will naturally disseminate into other worlds as specific pieces of information. Otherwise, these similar worldly features wouldn’t appear in such numbers, forming specific Outer World scenarios through these details, even if they seem dubious.

On the magic ape side, their numbers were much fewer. Their subordinates were primarily other ape-type magical beasts.

It’s uncertain if Demonic Apes count as intelligent creatures, but there’s no way to tell; they died so long ago their souls are a blank slate. Du You could only modify them a bit and then bring them back to life.

"These Demonic Apes didn’t seem to wield magic; like Behemoths, their strength lay in physical power. So, turning them into skeletons would be wasteful; better to make them into high-tier zombies."

Du You observed these Demonic Apes, and despite being protected by the array, their bodies remained intact without signs of decay after all this time. Hence, crafting them into zombies was more appropriate.

As for the dragon clan, Du You had no intention of preserving their bodies. Even if dragon bodies still existed, Du You would transform them into Bone Dragons, as zombie dragons were too slow and had no particular advantage.

What delighted Du You was finding quite a number of eighth-tier corpses here. As Du You dug deeper, more eighth-tier entities were created from these bodies. These shouldn’t be casually wasted.

If created, they should be made stronger than in life, otherwise, it would waste the materials.

"To think there are over thirty eighth-tier dragon bodies here, a pleasant surprise indeed. Those Demonic Apes are fewer, only in the twenties, quite unexpected."

Observing the scene, it’s clear that the Demonic Ape Clan’s numbers are small. Not just the upper class, but even the army seemed the same. However, more dragons and Dragon Beasts died here, indicating those Demonic Apes’ formidable combat prowess.

By speculation, Du You concluded that although these Demonic Apes couldn’t use magic, their inherent magic resistance was immense. Dragons fighting these apes could only resort to close combat or other methods, ultimately being overwhelmed by the apes’ fists, resulting in more losses than the Demonic Apes. With such powerful combat capabilities, how could the Dragon Clan leave them be?

Unfortunately, how carelessly power was used by this world’s creatures. Otherwise, even facing high magic resistance, actual dragons wouldn’t have been so weak; the outside world’s dragons prove that.

Being classed among the top-tier creatures wasn’t their self-evaluation.

But what’s the point in dwelling so much? Converting these lets me gain nearly sixty eighth-tier combat capabilities. No—more than that, since some remain undiscovered.

Even utilizing the surrounding death energy could promote a few seventh-tier pinnacle undead directly to eighth-tier. Even if just entering the eighth tier, it’s a notable difference.

Additionally, Du You has made significant progress in researching that special fire.

Leveraging structures of fire and the Origin of Law, Du You successfully used such integrations to craft special fire seeds. Once these fire seeds are installed, this powerful force would be at my undead’s disposal.
