Building the Strongest Undead Empire from Scratch

Chapter 363: Declare war on the Beastman Empire

At the edge of the Dark Forest, Torin, who was quietly meditating and recuperating, raised his head and looked towards the depths. He saw the spatial ripples in front of him flicker, and Xiao Mu and Drake walked out of it.

"Torin, come into the city with us."

Xiao Mu said. Torin was stunned.

"Has the Queen returned?"

"No, you have gained our trust. This is the result of our unanimous decision. The current Undead Empire is managed by the Death Angel Lord on her behalf."

Drake explained. In their opinion, it couldn't be helped that they had left him hanging here for a month. After all, they had to consider everyone's safety.

However, to Torin, it was insignificant. He had spent centuries in deep recuperation, so a mere month was nothing to him.

During this month, he had already learned from the Death Spirit that there were several talented humans in the Undead Empire. This was the first time he had seen them.

One with Titan bloodline, and one with Dragon bloodline!

They were indeed remarkable.

It just so happened that during this month, although he had been on the periphery, he had also felt the atmosphere in the city and the loyalty of many subordinates to the Queen.

The Queen had been missing for more than two months, but they not only managed the Undead Empire in an orderly manner, but also controlled so many races without causing any panic. This was truly rare.

Torin became even more curious about his new master, whom he had never met. At the same time, the Undead Imperial Capital, which was close at hand, also made him feel a sense of yearning.

Soon, under the leadership of the two, Torin passed through the maze and arrived at the Undead Imperial Capital.

Even he was slightly surprised by the magnificent giant city in front of him. As for some other facilities in the city, they were just small things to him. At most, he was just a little curious about some special buildings.

Arriving at the hall, Torin finally met Xiao Hui, the Death Angel he had never heard of before.

"Greetings, Acting Lord."

Torin bowed slightly.

"You're welcome. Although I'm the Acting Lord, you can just call me by my name. My name is Xiao Hui."

As she spoke, Xiao Hui didn't forget to introduce Xiao Mu, Drake, and the others.

"Death Angel, this kind of undead has never appeared before. May I ask if your bloodline was created by the Queen?"

Torin was extremely curious about this brand new undead race, Death Angel.

He could even sense that this brand new undead had the highest upper limit among all the current undead, directly on par with some top races.

"Yes, this is a special kind of undead born from the combination of the bloodlines of the undead and angels. The upper limit of its level is Sovereign level."

Xiao Hui didn't choose to hide it. Telling the truth could actually increase Alex's status in his heart.

Torin was astonished. A King level lord could create a Divine level bloodline. What kind of concept was this?

He even had a hunch that this Undead Queen was even more powerful than the previous Undead Lord.

"This is truly shocking."

Torin glanced at everyone and found that all three of them had talent no less than the Race Kings. In this way, these people under the Queen would also be a great help in the future.

However, he had not yet come into contact with the Queen and did not know her personality. He hoped that the Queen would not be as stubborn as the previous Undead Lord.

"Torin, what method is needed to heal your injuries?"

What Xiao Hui was more worried about now was that Torin's injuries were serious and he couldn't exert much combat power. But even so, Torin's strength was still much stronger than King level.

"As a divine bloodline created by the Undead Queen, you should be able to sense the Queen's existence, right?"

Torin didn't answer Xiao Hui's question, but looked at her and asked back.

"Yes, I can indeed sense it, but this guidance can only tell me whether the Queen is safe or not. It can't determine her specific location."

Xiao Hui had always thought that this was an angel's sense, a unique ability after fusing with the angel bloodline. But in fact, it was all bestowed upon her by Alex.

"After the death of the old Emperor, those of us who were his old troops were directly affected because we were all bloodlines created by him."

Torin's calm tone suddenly became a little heavy, and then he continued. "Our original Divine level bloodline will directly drop to Sovereign level, losing the last chance to become a god."

"What?! You mean the Divine bloodlines of the Race Kings all rely on the Undead Lord to exist? Then aren't we the same?"

This was the first time Xiao Hui had received such shocking news. It was also the first time she had heard of bloodline power regressing.

"I don't know about you, but at least we are like this. I'm afraid only the previous Undead Lord can heal my injuries."

Torin didn't show any sadness, as if he had known this result long ago. However, judging from the fact that the current Undead Queen could create a Divine level undead race, there might be a way to heal his injuries.

"Death Spirit said that you were injured in a battle with angels, and that you suffered irreparable injuries. Does that mean that only the previous Undead Lord, who created your bloodline, can make up for this defect?"

Xiao Hui could only think of this possibility.

"Although it's not that simple, your understanding is not wrong."

Torin's current level was level 3 Emperor. Although he was injured, he had no problem dealing with some level 1 Emperors.

With him here, everyone felt much safer and no longer afraid of going to war with the Beastman Empire.

Then, under Xiao Hui's leadership, everyone learned about the abilities of the Emperor level from Torin, including the higher Sovereign level.

As for the Divine level, this was not something Torin could know.

"Sophie, does the Liberty Church have any information about the Beastman Empire?"

This was a task that Xiao Hui had given to Sophie before.

The Beastman Empire was a force that had only risen in the past hundred years. In Torin's time, it was just an unknown small race that no one paid attention to.

Therefore, Torin's understanding of them was also very limited. Xiao Hui could only pin her hopes on the Liberty Church.

"I only found out some basic information. The Beastman Empire is a federal system. There are five Alphas from five races who jointly make decisions on the affairs of the Beastman Empire.

These five races are the demihumans, gnolls, birdmen, lionmen, and mammoths. Among them, the demihumans are the leaders. The Alpha of the demihumans is the highest combat power in the Beastman Empire and has the level of Sovereign level.

In addition, each of the five races has an Emperor level powerhouse. As for their subordinate races, there are more than a hundred of them, with strengths ranging from Monarch to King level."

Sophie explained eloquently. One Sovereign level and five Emperor levels, this was the surface strength of the Beastman Empire.

Xiao Hui pondered for a moment. There were more than five individuals at the Emperor level, all of whom were Alphas of the Beastman Empire. They probably wouldn't take action easily, which provided them with an opportunity.

"Torin, can you summon Emperor level undead?"

Xiao Hui looked at Torin again. This ability was the basis of their confidence in fighting the Beastman Empire.

"Of course I can, but summoning an Emperor level corpse is too troublesome. It will take at least two hours to complete. During this time, I can't participate in the battle, and it will consume nearly half of my mana points."

Torin, as a former subordinate of the previous Undead Lord, although he was a necromancer, his strength was currently limited. A corpse of the same level was his limit.

Although it was a bit troublesome to summon, fortunately, Emperor level corpses could be summoned. In this way, as long as they found a way to kill one of the Emperor level Alphas of the other party, as long as the Sovereign level Alpha of the demihumans didn't participate in the battle, they could even drag the other party to death.

"Emperor level corpses seem to be the limit of the undead. Even if Alex comes, I'm afraid she won't be able to summon Emperor level undead, right?"

Xiao Mu, who was standing by the side, suddenly said. Sophie, who was standing next to him, was about to ask why when she suddenly froze.

That's right, the current upper limit of the undead was only Emperor level. How could they summon Emperor level undead?

As for the only Sovereign level Death Angel, it needed a special method to summon.

"Don't think too much about it. If we encounter a Sovereign level now, we'll be dead. Don't even dream of summoning a Sovereign level corpse."

Xiao Hui rolled her eyes at Xiao Mu and continued to look at Torin.

"During this time, I'm afraid the Beastman Empire will put pressure on our vassal kingdom again. By then, war will be inevitable. The safety of the Undead Empire will depend on you."

Xiao Hui said respectfully to Torin. After all, he hadn't officially joined the Undead Empire yet, and besides, strong people should be respected. There was nothing wrong with that.

During this time, the Beastman Empire had become more and more aggressive. They didn't want Ruby to bear this huge pressure alone.

Xiao Hui had no choice but to give the order to go to war with the Beastman Empire. Now, Torin's arrival had greatly boosted their confidence.

"No need to say more. Although I'm seriously injured, I've had enough of hiding. Now that the new Undead Lord has appeared, I will definitely do my best for the Undead Empire!"

Torin's expression was solemn, and his eyes were firm. They were just weak undead, forced by the angels to live like rats in the sewers. Now they finally had an organization.

Torin had had enough of wandering.
