Chapter 1027: Chapter 625: Tomb Special Units, Demon Appetite!

Today’s battle was actually an encounter.

After a long march, the Undead Army had only taken a short rest and hadn’t begun preparing for the siege.

They hadn’t even started to provoke the demons, and yet these demons couldn’t hold back and charged out on their own.

If Fang Zhou had a bit more time to prepare, he would have to bring out some real skills.

However, Hecarim had his own pride and chose not to retreat first, but to confront them head-on.

As the demons charged towards them, Fang Zhou cast a spell to summon a batch of Tomb Undead Warriors.

Tutankhamun, along with his brothers, watched the Tomb Undead Warriors continuously march past them, heading to the front lines, and felt a chill down their spine.

When they saw the golden-tier Tomb Undead Leaders like Tidamia and Vladimir, and the hundreds of Blood Spirit Knight Followers accompanying them appear at their flank.

Tutankhamun could only tremble nervously, with Soul Fire and the dense bandages on his body. He knew he had indeed chosen correctly.

Following Fang Zhou, the Undead Lord of the Lower Realm, greatly increased his chances of survival.

For a war mercenary like Fang Zhou, fighting alongside the Blood War Furnace’s Undead Ruler had a major downside.

When it came to the distribution of spoils, almost all of it ultimately belonged to the Undead Ruler.

Everyone else, whether they were war mercenaries or direct undead warriors, often got a meager share.

Given this, Fang Zhou naturally wouldn’t exert too much effort.

Otherwise, if too many Tomb Undead Warriors died in battle, he would have to bear the losses himself.

In this battle, Fang Zhou did not summon the golden-tier Tomb Mages like Murphite and Karsas, but instead summoned twenty silver-tier Blood Spirit Mages.

These Blood Spirit Mages began casting spells on the Tomb Undead Warriors lined up on the front, mainly spells to enhance the combat power of Spiritual Remains Warriors.

They even released a large Undead Sky Screen among the Spiritual Remains Warriors’ formations.

This gray mist could slightly affect living demons, but had no effect on the undead.

Soon, the faster demons closed in on Hecarim’s formation.

The officers of the undead used shouts or soul waves to issue the command: "Fire!"

In the formations of the war mercenaries and Tusk City Undead Legion, all undead capable of long-range attacks began to launch arrows and various spells.

An arrow rain and magic storm were launched, pouring down on the forefront of the demon charge like raindrops.

The fast-moving demons could already smell the stench of decay on the undead.

Within the Abyss Territory, which was closest to the Undead Realm from the Bottomless Abyss, the remnants of these Abyssal Demons had evolved a hunger for undead creatures due to their terrifying racial talents.

This hunger made the demons incredibly excited, causing them to neglect the incoming arrows.

Some of these arrows were imbued with Death Energy, while others carried various kinds of undead Corrosive Poison.

"Thud!"

The arrow rain fell, accompanied by the sound of blades piercing flesh, causing significant losses among the demon vanguard, even creating small gaps in the charging wave.

However, these casualties were not alarming to the demons.

Even when seeing demons die beside them, they felt no fear.

A large number of demons had already stormed into the skeleton horde.

They wielded talons or crude weapons, wreaking havoc amidst the skeletons.

This period was a great opportunity for the undead to expand their attack.

They bombarded the demons with countless arrows and various spells.

Of course, not only did the undead possess spells, but the demons did as well.

A lot of Desecration Magic was released, striking the forefront of the skeletons and war mercenaries.

Flames, acid, storms, poison...

These spells inflicted casualties on the war mercenaries, turning the battlefield chaotic.

Compared to them, the mindless skeletons showed more resilience.

Despite dying in greater numbers, they remained silent.

The formations of Tusk City and the Tomb troops nearby were the same.

It was a deathly silence, except for the constant barrage of Soul Fire-burning arrows and spells being launched.

On this battlefield, only the formations of Tusk City and the Tomb were impeccably orderly.

Behind the lines, Hecarim sat on his Horror Nightmare, watching the scene with satisfaction.

His voice was low: "Fang Zhou, I like your army.

It seems you are an exceptional Undead Lord in the Lower Realm, with the potential to become an Undead Ruler."

Everything ordered would earn the favor of the Undead Ruler from the Blood War Furnace.

Well-organized formations were no exception.

Fang Zhou’s Tomb formation consisted of company groups of one hundred Spiritual Remains Warriors forming a small formation.

Each had a silver upper-rank Blood Spirit Warrior Lieutenant, with ten Blood Spirit Warriors as reserves.

Every five such companies would form a larger formation.

The entire formation was like interlocking gears.

The frontline Spiritual Remains Warriors held spears and shields, blocking demon attacks with their shields and piercing them with long spears.

Behind them, Spiritual Remains Archers and Spiritual Remains Mages continually launched arrows and spells.
