Global Game: I, the Necromancer, am the scourge-Chapter 589 - 383: Descendant of Dragon Blood, Dwarves of the Underworld_2
Manipulating the old corpse and the ghostly woman, he lay them inside two coffins, without even needing to cover them with coffin lids.
"Yuer, notify Edward later, and have him bring over some First Order BOSSes for the old corpse and the ghostly woman to absorb life essence until they can’t take in anymore."
"Are you planning to rear high-order zombies?"
The alchemy that Fan Yuer and her three sisters had researched mostly pertained to undead potions, so naturally, they understood undead creatures very well.
First Order zombies were definitely special existences among low-order undead.
"Let’s try it, what if it works? Who wouldn’t want to have a plethora of trump cards up their sleeve?"
Although cultivating was one thing, Zi Liyuan did not hold much hope for rearing a Legendary BOSS calibre drought fiend, but raising an Epic BOSS was certainly achievable, he could guarantee that.
"You’re not planning to stack up using [Heart of the Lord], are you?"
The thought of the abundance of [Heart of the Lord] in that guy’s Spatial Backpack left Fan Yuer speechless.
Truth be told, if one really stacked without regard for cost, it could indeed be done, but it would just be very uneconomical.
"That’s not it. I’ll start by feeding them various BOSS-level creatures. Right now, these two zombies are low-ranked, and their templates are just elite common monsters. I’ll consider the BOSS target once they evolve."
If they don’t evolve into BOSSes, then there’s no value in cultivating them, and naturally, there will be no follow-up.
"Just don’t waste resources recklessly."
She nodded and added a word of caution.
Even though they had numerous [Heart of the Lord], wasting them would still pain their hearts, wouldn’t it?
"Yuer, continue to assist me with constructing the territory. I’m going out to deal with those monster groups we’ve discovered."
Lord Zi pecked someone on the red lips, then turned and stylishly mounted Lao Ma.
He had just received several coordinates from Fan Yuer, and now he was off to inspect these abruptly emerged monster groups.
Near an undead-centric territory, where living monster groups appeared, either they would be exterminated and their corpses reclaimed, turning into nourishment for the land of death, or they would be recruited to become black laborers in Lord Zi’s hands, toiling away to create value for him.
This time, those accompanying Lord Zi on the trip were fewer—only Dailisi, Hongsha, Lao Ma, Kulong, and Lao Tie followed.
The Spectral Dragon Legion was not suitable to bring along—these giant creatures were too big, and the monster groups all hid underground, making it impossible for Spectral Dragons to enter.
Soon, they arrived at the first coordinate.
It was a stone mountain, but according to Zi Liyuan’s map overlay, the inside of the entire stone mountain had been mostly hollowed out, turning it into a stone fortress-like structure.
Inside this stone fortress, a group of Dwarfs seemed to be living?

"Why do these Dwarfs feel like underground rats? Huh, why do most of them seem to be old men, old women, and young cubs?"
Looking down, the life sources of most were between First and Second Order, with only a few reaching Third Order.
However, the map overlay revealed that the prime-aged individuals were not present within this group of Dwarfs.
Spreading his Soul Value to the maximum, Zi Liyuan saw that the deepest part of the stone fortress had numerous passages branching off in all directions.
Among them, one particular tunnel was noticeably wider and even had tracks laid out!
"This direction leads toward the iron mines!"
Lord Zi could only exclaim inwardly at the audacity of these Dwarfs who were secretly mining.
"Damn! The mineral deposits nearby are all mine; these little Dwarfs dare to steal my ore!"
This was unacceptable!
He must apprehend this group of little Dwarfs and turn them into black slaves dedicated to mining for him!
"Kulong, go down and give these little Dwarfs a hello, but don’t take any lives."
Dwarfs, after all, were experts in mining, forging, and metallurgy—just what was needed since the territory was short of Forging Masters; this group of Dwarfs could solve the urgent need.
Incorporate them!
They must be incorporated!
They had been mining who-knows-how-much of his ore, so not a single one could be allowed to escape!

"Understood, Master!"
Kulong let out a low growl, then quickly descended, its massive skeletal dragon body landing atop the Stone Fortress.
The fearsome dragon might instantaneously enveloped a ten-kilometer radius.
The unique aura of an Epic Boss, along with the oppressive might of the dragon, creatures within ten kilometers suddenly felt a crushing pressure on their souls.
The weaker beings immediately trembled, falling to their knees on the ground.
Those slightly stronger also shook with fear, worried about drawing the terrifying dragon’s attention; one by one, they too knelt and played dead.
At this moment, the inside of the Stone Fortress descended into chaos.
As Zi Liyuan and his party took to the skies, the dwarves hiding underground took notice of the uninvited guests above them.
Thus, aside from the lookouts and sentinels concealed in the shadows, the rest of the dwarves quickly gathered and descended to the lowest level of the Stone Fortress, ready to evacuate at a moment’s notice.
There was no helping it, with a Spectral Dragon so large in the sky above, it was hard to be overlooked.
And for it to hover right above their home, it had to be targeting them, no question about it!
They were just dwarves living at the bottom of the social order, no match for an attack from an epic Spectral Dragon Boss.
Not wanting their community to be wiped out, the dwarves decisively abandoned everything at home and prepared to flee.
But the sudden onslaught of the dragon’s might bearing down directly on these dwarves turned their faces red, their bodies trembling, especially the younglings; most of them collapsed on the ground, and quite a few wet themselves.
For a while, the lowest level of the Stone Fortress fell into absolute silence; the sound of a droplet hitting the ground was clearly audible.
"Damn it, this epic Spectral Dragon’s power is too terrifying; Lao Tie, use the secret method to warn Copper Hammer, he must not return home!"
A Third Order Dwarf elder, his face painted with fear, still bit down hard on his trembling teeth and commanded a slightly younger Third Order Dwarf beside him.
"Elder, Elder, I, I’ve already, used the secret method, the, the message, has been, sent, but, no response came."
Lao Tie was now covered in cold sweat, a feeling of impending death surging from the depths of his soul, as if in the next moment he would be crushed by the dragon’s might, causing him immense discomfort.
"It’s good that you’ve sent it out, I hope the master of the Spectral Dragon..."
The elder did not finish, because those who typically tamed Spectral Dragons were either death-profession practitioners or lords.
Such beings often regarded life with utmost indifference, and many perverts even delighted in toying with corpses.
The elder believed there was a high probability that all of them—old, weak, and children alike—would be killed by the death lord outside.
"Vermin, come out willingly, my master wishes to see you!"
With the vibration of soul fire, Kulong’s voice carried across the entire underground space, not only resounding immensity but also bearing a soul-crushing menace.
The threat was palpable.
However, after the voice spread, Kulong retracted the dragon’s might it had been exuding and stood tall and proud on top of the Stone Fortress.
"Phew, that was a frightening display of dragon’s might; Elder, what do we do now?"
Feeling the immense pressure lift from their souls, Lao Tie wiped the cold sweat from his forehead, then turned to the elder beside him.
"Lao San, take good care of everyone. Lao Tie, you come with me."
Your journey continues with novelbuddy
The elder issued his command without any hesitation.
At this very moment, the consequence of not facing it was death for all the dwarves present; facing it, there was a slim chance of survival.
"Let’s go."
Nodding towards the Third Elder, the elder led Lao Tie, the Second Elder, up the passage quickly and soon emerged from a concealed hole.
Observing the two dwarf elders shaking like chaff, Zi Liyuan slightly raised an eyebrow, then signaled Lao Ma to descend from the air.
"Daring to steal mines within the domain of this lord, what should be your punishment?"
In his indifferent voice, boundless authority resonated, along with a savage fierceness, weighing upon the two dwarf elders.
Already shaking like chaff, the two dwarfs fell to their knees, their faces gripped with fear as they looked up at Zi Liyuan, forgetting even how to beg for mercy.
