Yet the others were indifferent.
In the realm of survival, even absolute allies cannot claim to know each other thoroughly.
It was precisely because Fong Sha reached out to his friend that the group found a way out, which in turn caused Longia to refrain from contacting Bayou.
Should they be discovered by a royal level being, they would depart from this place.
If not, they would continue to thrive here.
The magical continent offers no absolute safety, and no one can guarantee that their next destination will present fewer dangers than the present one.
Chapter 194.
Rallying allies in the depths of the abyss.
Duong awaited the activation of the portal, but instead received a private message from Bayou.
with no friends to speak of.
It was unusual for anyone to engage him in conversation at such a late hour.
Upon opening the message, he confirmed it was indeed from Bayou.
Creamy Crabon, I believe forming an alliance is imperative.
Instant enlightenment.
Have you finally come to that realization? Creamy Crabon.
Their power exceeds my expectations.
If you don't possess royal status, it would be best for you to remain where you are and allow me to teleport you.
Instant enlightenment.
You underestimate me.
a mere royal status.
Can they summon a hundred of them? Creamy Crabun, nearly 90 lords along with a 100,000 troops.
Du Yang was taken aback by this revelation, realizing he had significantly underestimated the determination of these lords to reprimand Bayou, he had casually mentioned it, never anticipating such a formidable gathering of lords.
Initially, he thought the undead lord was simply being cowardly, but now he recognized that even he would be overwhelmed in such a scenario.
Excitement began to swell within him.
A battle against so many lords would undoubtedly be exhilarating.
Instant enlightenment.
This is simply creamy crabon.
A tremendous challenge.
Instant enlightenment.
What? Creamy crab on.
Never mind.
Just ensure you have an escape route if you lack sufficient strength.
Instant enlightenment.
How dare you underestimate me? Tomorrow you shall witness my prowess as to why it would be tomorrow.
Dang was already preparing for slumber.
By you, reclining on her bed, wrapped herself in a blanket, exposing only her fair shoulders and arms.
She had also closed the private chat with Du Yang, feeling a curious sense of urgency, as if he were even more eager after learning of the alliance's strength.
Bayou was not so arrogant as to believe she was the only one with royal status among the thousand elite lords.
Certainly, there were hidden powerhouses among them.
Her own royal status had been revealed only due to her efforts in scoring points.
Even with Du Yang possessing royal status, but you remained uneasy, as one or two royals would not significantly influence the outcome, at most they could shift the previous odds from a 4060 to a 50/50.
No one could predict whether these lords would seek alliances with others before confronting her.
Bayou initiated a private message to the lord known as fallen light.
She recalled that this individual had also expressed a desire to assist her albeit without the same bravado as duong hapne prefecture by the cliffside sea.
As she prepared for sleep, Leelings suddenly received a private message from Bayou.
Creamy crab bun, I may truly require your assistance now.
Fallen light.
Is the enemy's strength overwhelming? Creamy crab bun.
Indeed.
Their numbers surpass my expectations.
With nearly 100 lords and 100,000 troops, fallen light, no worries.
If you choose to fight, I shall provide support.
If you need to flee, you are welcome to seek refuge here.
It remains relatively safe.
Creamy crabon.
Why would you help me? That places you at odds with all the lords.
Fallen light.
There is no particular reason if I must state one.
Perhaps it is simply that I like you am viewed as a calamity in their eyes.
Crab yellow bun.
Thank you.
I will confront them without hesitation.
Lights fall.
Good.
Ley knew that this lord of the undead would not falter.
Her instincts have never been wrong.
When faced with uncertainty, one cannot become a top tier lord without decisiveness.
If it were Ly herself, she too would not retreat even in the face of defeat.
Upon understanding each other's true capabilities, the two lords chose to support Bayou.
They're not fools, and this reflects their confidence in their own strength.
Bayou closed the panel, slid into bed, and prepared for sleep, hoping that the prowess of these two lords would not disappoint her.
Time 6:00.
A new day dawned, marking the third day of the leaderboard update, and Bayou rose promptly before retiring the previous night.
She pondered extensively and increasingly felt that her strength had been exposed, leading to this predicament.
However, all enemies had perished in that battle, and three royal level beings had slain Yuong.
It could not possibly be that Yong disseminated information before his demise.
If that were the case, Bayu would accept it.
the elemental alliance.
That could not be correct.
Since her last encounter with Meyers, she had not engaged with them, and they should be unaware of her royal level promotion and the existence of her three royal level units.
Could it be that the goblin shaman returned to the kingdom with news, which was then leaked by that treacherous lord? That seemed improbable, as the undead had yet to locate the goblin kingdom, indicating it was not in proximity.
Bayou dismissed all her speculations, leaving only one plausible explanation.
There must be another lord hidden nearby who deceived the undead and leaked the information.
Indeed, there was a cunning one.
Bayou abruptly sat up in bed, causing her covers to fall away.
She swiftly dressed and ventured outside the castle.
After summoning her units, she immediately commanded the gargoyless and destroyers surrounding the castle to disperse and search for the cunning one.
If they had remained undetected by the undead, they must possess some special means.
She hoped the gargoyles and destroyers could utilize their keen magical senses to locate the concealed lord.
Bayou instructed them to investigate near the dark forest, as her aerial units had previously been responsible for the snow mountain.
If a hidden lord existed, they would have discovered it long ago, especially considering the significant upheaval in the snow mountain region.
This time, Bayou directed them to explore areas previously scouted by the Army of the Undead.
Should there indeed be a cunning one nearby, not only would the leakage of Bayou's information be a concern, but they might also inadvertently reveal her location, prompting their allied lords to invade her.
Bayou heightened the vigilance of the surrounding undead.
Any anomalies must be reported immediately.
Meanwhile, Dang initially intended to come over, but was rebuffed by Bayou.
Before the Alliance launched an assault on Bayou, she needed to maintain the FA a being a lone wolf with no retreat.
Forcing Bayou to transition into a free agent was one of their primary objectives.
Bayou believed that becoming a free agent entailed more than merely abandoning her castle and units.
Taking Bayou as an example, should she genuinely become a free individual, the Army of the Dead would undoubtedly continue to pursue her.
