It could accommodate at least 10 skeletal soldiers at once.

She referred to it as the main cannon port.

The arrangement alternated with each cannon port and scatter cannon port positions separately.

Thus, six corner towers comprised three scatter cannon ports and three main cannon ports.

Aesthetically, Bayou found the necropolis quite satisfactory.

She contemplated notifying the 20,000 undead troops in Aman city to garrison here, sparing the dwarven civilians from undue fright outside the city.

Boss, what powers it? I recall that typical facilities derive energy from spirit cores.

Yet I cannot locate any? Chinu inquired, gazing curiously at the energy undead crystal core at top the tower.

Her question prompted by Yu's realization.

Indeed, there must be a designated space for the spirit cores.

Boss, there's a room by the portal, Shun exclaimed.

And Bayou then noticed that among the six walls, only five were designated for the teleportation array.

She leaped down from the city wall and approached to investigate further.

The siblings watched as Bayou entered.

They had attempted to enter prior to her arrival, but had been unsuccessful.

Bayou initially presumed this room housed the spirit cores.

But upon entering, she found it devoid of any contents, say for a floating orb of blue flame.

Is this the flame of souls? How could this be? Bayou discovered that she could summon the system interface here, albeit with only a single function available.

Bayou immediately exited the room, her face a mask of astonishment.

While the siblings regarded her expression with bewilderment, utterly perplexed by what she had witnessed.

I comprehend why it no longer requires a spiritual core to provide energy.

It possesses a soul.

This necroantic fortress is in the strictest sense a manifestation of the undead.

What? Such a vast entity is an undead being.

Chun Schwe's mouth fel agape, her countenance reflecting sheer disbelief.

Bayou observed its blue bar, which was a staggering 1,000 points.

Even with the protective barrier continuously activated, the consumption of magical energy could not keep pace with its rate of recovery.

Thus, this shield could remain operational indefinitely unless faced with intensified attacks that would exacerbate the depletion of magical energy or if a ferocious strike were to shatter it entirely.

If it is indeed an undead entity, then it makes sense.

All energy is derived from its own magical reserves, eliminating the need for external sources of power.

As for the system panel capabilities that Bayu witnessed, they pertain to the self-destruct mechanism of the fortress, transforming it into a being of the undead.

Chapter 246.

Ambushed.

So this is how it is to think such a grand fortress is in fact a manifestation of the undead by you could hardly fathom its true scale.

The self-destruction of the undead fortress transforming into a spectre is undoubtedly not a permanent state but rather a form of mutually assured destruction for it entails a considerable waste of resources.

Unless absolutely necessary, Bayou hoped to refrain from employing such a power.

At present, Bayou increasingly regarded this phenomenon as uniquely hers.

It was unlikely that any similar entity existed, say for perhaps structures possessing analogous teleportation capabilities.

By the way, could you two attempt to pass through this portal? Bayou harbored concerns that this gateway might be exclusive to the undead.

as the undead queen.

She could traverse it without issue, but if Chun Fong and Chinua were unable to follow, it would pose a significant inconvenience.

All right, I'll give it a try.

Chun Fong stepped forward, approaching the portal without hesitation, and passed through seamlessly.

It appears to be feasible, possibly due to their connection as her subjects.

It might also be that the undead fortress possesses censience, enabling it to choose whom it allows passage.

Let us return as well.

Shun followed by you through the portal.

The scenery spun dizzingly for a moment before they found themselves within the main fortress of the city of the undead.

In terms of teleportation experience, this was far superior to any gate they had encountered before.

As the hour grew late, the trio resolved to retire for the night.

Upon returning to the palace, Bayou promptly set matters in motion, instructing SARS to summon additional skeletal archers alongside the liches.

Understood, master.

The skeletal archers were intended for the defense of the undead fortress positioned to top the battlementss to provide ranged assault.

Currently, they were by use sole means of efficiently mass-roducing ranged units.

Previously, she had observed the lich summon a batch and thought it merely adequate.

However, in hindsight, it was indeed quite essential.

One day, Bayou must delve into the lich's skeletal magic to explore what other variants of the undead might be conjured.

After a refreshing bath, Bayou nestled into her cozy bed for the night.

With the transformation of the fortress into a palace, all amenities had improved significantly.

She could even enjoy hot water for bathing.

A night passed in silence.

The following morning, as Bayou rose, she was greeted with delightful news.

Jon had ascended to the rank of king.

Sars and Jack had also reached level seven, the commander tier, and would soon attain the king rank as well, including the newly promoted Lonnie and Jon.

Bayou now commanded a total of 20 king-level undead warriors.

Having learned from the intelligence gathered about the goblin king, who was not at the emperor level, Bayou was confident that this formidable assembly would be more than capable of vanquishing it.

Today, with leisure at hand, she shared breakfast with her siblings.

eldest sister.

Once we conquer the goblin kingdom, we should be able to elevate our ranks to king, right? Chunw began to eagerly anticipate her own ascension.

Envisioning their inclusion among the elite lords, that should be the case.

Once the fortress core refreshes at dusk, we can launch our assault on the goblin kingdom.

Have they shown any signs of movement? By you cast a glance at the two siblings.

In truth, he had never been particularly attentive to the movements of the goblin kingdom, having long entrusted their management to them.

There had been no activity, maintaining an eerie calm, as if the city bore no relevance to them.

Chinfong felt that these goblins were exceedingly timid.

Or perhaps they were engaging in some peculiar activities under the cover of their protective shield.

So many lives have been lost, and yet the royal city remained unresponsive.

Indeed, the Goblin King had been living in fear since learning of the incident at the Snow Mountain, unable to sleep each night, dreading that the three major races would hold him accountable.

All their royal figures had perished, leaving only his own king alive, and the mystery of the Snow Mountain incident was an enigma that demanded explanation.

The complexities of the Marshall State as influence loomed large in the goblins.

being of lesser strength would have thrived far better in a hapne state.

However, their inherent weakness precluded them from the capacity to relocate across vast territories.

The closest entity to them was the branch of the mage association, and each day the goblin king fredded over the possibility of human mages seeking trouble with them.

Living beneath the protective barrier, the goblin kingdom was submissive.

Yet, the Mage Association had no intention of concerning themselves with the goblins.

They merely sought to investigate the Snow Mountain incident, fully aware that the Goblin Kingdom lacked both the power and the audacity to pose a threat.

Ironically, the goblins relocation of their royal city only served to heighten suspicion among the mages.

After all, in the eyes of all races, the strength of humanity was not solely attributed to their innate talents and technology, but also to their inherent cunning and suspicion.

As dusk fell, a new fortress core was generated within the main stronghold.

Bayou, stepping upon the black mist and grasping the obsidian hexed, expended resources to complete its charging.

At last, he could commence his operations.

by you turned away from the main stronghold, determining that the fortress core will be placed directly beneath the goblin kingdom s barrier, allowing the undead to confront the goblins head-on, thereby showcasing the fortress's offensive capabilities.

Just as by you exited the main gate of the stronghold, he glanced at his system panel to check the time when suddenly a message popped up.

Your necromancer has been slain by an enemy angel.

What was this? His royal unit had been killed and by an angel no less Bayou currently commanded four necromancers stationed in each city the Emerald Hills the White Rock Mountains at Xiao Lianu's castle and with Sun Shia Sha the situations in the Emerald Hills and Xiao Lianu's domain would promptly alert Bayou.

He recalled that Sun Shia Sha had mentioned her location was a desert quite secure could be city but how could there be angels in each city? A sense of foroding washed over by you.

Sure enough, the system s voice rang out once more, confirming by us apprehensions.

Big wave girl, big boss, please save Shia Sha.

We are encountering a formidable foe.

Bayou immediately soared towards the portal, simultaneously sending a union invitation to Sun Yubu Bao and responding, "Crab yellow fortress, where is Sun Sha Sha? Why is Tishi contacted me?" Sun Yuba immediately accepted the invitation to form an alliance and swiftly replied to Bayou Debo girl.
