Global Game: I, the Necromancer, am the scourge-Chapter 1038 - 610_2
Thinking of this, the two emperors nearly issued the same order, dispatching a thousand-strong force of the imperial guards to investigate the root of the undead disaster and to find the hunters behind it!
This team was comprised entirely of Fifth Tier Epic Demon Wolves, led by three Sixth Tier Legendary Demon Wolves.
With such power, even if they encountered a Seventh Grade Sanctum being, they would have the ability to escape.
Running away when outmatched isn’t shameful, as long as they can relay back useful intelligence, it will be a great achievement.
Having meritorious service would naturally result in rewards, and typically, military rewards are related to enhancing one’s strength.
This is the Sea of Realms, so everything here respects power; treasures that can enhance strength are valuable to any alien race in the Sea of Realms.
With this understanding, this Demon Wolf team was determined to complete their mission.
Originally, the march would take quite some time, but don’t forget, the entire team is Fifth Tier Epic!
Reaching the Fifth Tier, flying within the Sea of Realms is no longer difficult.
Therefore, this team immediately activated flight mode, disregarding energy expenditure, and directly descended upon the valley from the skies.
Among the revived undead, there were naturally also aerial units, but their numbers weren’t as great as the waves of undead on the ground.
Additionally, their strength varied, so the aerial undead encountered by this team were all scattered.
If they hadn’t been rushing to complete their mission, and had chased those flying undead, they would definitely have slaughtered them completely.
Unfortunately, this Demon Wolf team hadn’t even reached the valley’s perimeter when they suddenly encountered a catastrophic strike!
Sure of their powerful thousand-strong group, they thought the people behind the scenes wouldn’t dare attack them, and became somewhat reckless.
What they didn’t know was that soon after they took off, they were monitored by Xiao Guang.
Since they were detected early, Lao Tie then had the power to choose a better battlefield.
High above, Xiao Guang had already activated stealth mode and was gradually lowering altitude.
Meanwhile, the ship’s flanks had opened their cannon ports, with each gun beginning to charge.
Of course, these were not magic crystal cannons, but demonic energy cannons developed with the help of Shen Yurou.
Their power depended on the amount of energy infused into them, with this type of demonic energy cannon’s might ranging from First to Sixth Tier.
And the number of them was as many as a thousand!
As for the magic crystal cannon, it had advanced along with Xiao Guang, and under full charge, it was definitely a Seventh Grade Sanctum level superweapon!
So, it’s not used lightly.
Primarily because when this thing fires, the commotion it causes is simply enormous.
It’s anticipated that the moment the magic crystal cannon fires, enemies from all sides will converge, and they’ll overwhelm you with sheer numbers!
Meanwhile, Lao Tie had already lain in ambush underground, and being a puppet life form, he didn’t need to breathe and wasn’t afraid of being buried underground.
This ambush on the inevitable path caught the Demon Wolf team completely off guard.
Almost immediately, thousands of demonic energy beams descended from the sky, striking the unprepared Demon Wolf army directly on the head.
Besides the Sixth Tier Legendary Wolves, only about a hundred Fifth Tier Epic Demon Wolves survived the ordeal.
Of course, they had some life-saving means, using trump cards in hand to keep one life intact.
Just when the surviving wolves were about to take to the skies in pursuit, the entire ground shook, and a massive force suppressed them.
Where they were once able to fly freely, it now felt as if they were weighed down by a mountain, making it impossible to fly, with them all crashing to the ground.
In the instant they fell, Lao Tie burst from the ground, dual spikes in hand, with eight spider spikes on his back, attacking these underdog wolves like a meat grinder.
The cries of anguish, wailing, and cursing were endless in that moment.
However, the sounds didn’t last long, lasting less than three minutes altogether.
Over a hundred Demon Wolves who had initially escaped were slaughtered by Lao Tie.
As for the few Sixth Tier Legendary Wolves, when they realized things were amiss, they immediately fled without hesitation.
Unfortunately, though they were fast, they couldn’t escape the better coordination of Lao Tie and Xiao Guang.
Almost as soon as the first wave of demonic energy beam strikes began, the area was sealed.
Trying to tear space or use spatial treasures to escape was a pipe dream!
Those around Zi Liyuan understood that to cut weeds, you have to remove the roots; if you want to remove the roots, you must leave the enemy with no escape!
There are many ways to leave the enemy with no escape, but the first is undoubtedly to seal the space around them!
Who made spatial escape the most formidable?
And as a direct trusted aide of Zi Liyuan, of course they wouldn’t lack treasures to seal space.
Especially the Space Seal Scroll, there were endless numbers of them, even enough to use as toilet paper with no issue.
Sixth Tier Legendary beings couldn’t use spatial movement, yet their escape speed wasn’t slow either.
But don’t forget, Lao Tie had all sorts of negative buffs!
Lowering speed, weakening attributes...once Lao Tie got hold of you, you couldn’t shake him off!
One side fled desperately, the other pursued leisurely, with the ship overhead broadcasting specific coordinates, making pursuit excessively simple.
They hadn’t even run a hundred miles before the Sixth Tier Legendary Demon Wolf commanders were brutally killed by Lao Tie, and their bodies were packaged back.
Killing and collecting the bodies is a good habit, and it’s considered standard practice for Zi Liyuan’s forces.
Though the destruction of this Demon Wolf team didn’t relay any useful information, it made the corresponding Demon Wolf dynasty much more vigilant.
They even speculated some things, such as the hidden enemy behind the scenes must have mobilized Seventh Grade Sanctum beings, possibly more than one!
With these speculations, naturally, they wouldn’t continue to send elite forces to their deaths.
The Demon Wolf Emperor entered the Elder’s Chamber without hesitation and directly awakened those Seventh Grade Sanctum beings in seclusion.
This was a matter concerning the Demon Wolf race, and it was beyond what he could handle, so he immediately called for reinforcements.
On the other side, the Demon Wolf dynasty, although slightly slower in action, also dispatched a reconnaissance team.
However, the team sent by the other side was even stronger, just the Sixth Tier Legendary Demon Wolf commanders alone numbered five, and they brought three thousand-strong Fifth Tier Epic army.
This wave of ambush did encounter a slight hiccup.
The three thousand Fifth Tier Epic Demon Wolves were all annihilated in the ambush, but only four of the five Legendary Wolves were killed, with one successfully escaping from Lao Tie’s pursuit.
However, this Wolf did suffer significant injuries, having both wolf claws forcibly severed by Lao Tie.
Even if he returned, it would still require enormous costs to restore his peak state.
Given the Demon Wolf dynasty’s nature, it’s expected that they’d only grant some rewards, and as for helping him grow a new pair of wolf claws, that’s impossible.
Of course, the reason this Sixth Tier Legendary Demon Wolf successfully escaped was actually because Lao Tie deliberately let him off.
Sending Lao Tie out wasn’t to hunt these Fifth or Sixth Tier Demon Wolves, but to serve as bait to lure out the Seventh Grade Sanctum Demon Wolf Kings!
If they wiped them out completely, and the other side sent a bunch of Sanctum beings at once, they’d have to flee immediately, how could they continue causing trouble?
If the Seventh Grade Sanctums on the Demon Wolf Continent weren’t cleared completely, they wouldn’t have any way to wipe out the entire Demon Wolf race on this continent.
As for slowly eating away at the Demon Wolf Continent, Zi Liyuan never considered it from the start.
What he wanted to do was extremely provocative, one wrong move and it could lead to ultimate disaster.
Therefore, he needed to rapidly expand his territory to meet the requirements of establishing a dynasty and separate from the continent of the Blue Star Human Race to form a new empire.
Only in this way could he greatly sever ties with the Blue Star Human Race, so that in the future, should any exposure occur, it wouldn’t implicate the Blue Star Human Race.
After all, in the current universe, the Human Race isn’t just limited to the Blue Star Human Race, but instead consists of thousands to tens of thousands of Human Race branches on different planets.
