Chapter 281: Skeleton Corps Promotion (Part 2)
As the roar of the undead rose, the black clouds above the city formed a huge vortex, and the soul energy particles and soul fire were swept into it by the powerful suction force of the vortex.
It was also fortunate that the human soldiers only operated the catapults for long-range support. If they had followed the Skeleton Legion in the charge, not to mention those who would die in the battle, the survivors would also not be able to avoid death.
Their souls will be sucked away by the vortex with terrifying suction above the city and turned into nourishment for the skeleton army.
Countless soul energy particles were drawn from the earth, like a dragon sucking water from the sea, forming a soul energy light column that supported the sky and the earth.
The foundation of the Death Territory's existence is the soul energy particles and negative energy hidden deep within the earth. In the Death Territory, which is like one body and can lead all cities and undead to be reborn, the soul energy particles and negative energy are like the blood and bone marrow of the Death Territory.
For the human coalition, the biggest enemy of the entire Death Territory is not the Death Lord, nor the thousands of undead, and certainly not the impregnable Undead city that can be refreshed and reborn at midnight.
The human coalition's biggest enemy in this place is the Territory of Death.
The so-called Death Lord, countless undead, and the undead city are nothing more than the external manifestation of the Death Territory, insignificant, like dandruff and hair.
Mo Cheng himself could not explain how the Skeleton Legion advanced. They seemed to have an experience bar just like himself. When they had killed enough people, they could advance directly without paying attention to other conditions.
As far as Mo Cheng knew, the high-level advancement of Undead Skeletons was extremely difficult and involved a large number of non-combat factors.
But at this moment, under the influence of the system, they skipped all requirements, or in other words, there is only one requirement for them to advance.
Kill, gain experience, and advance when it is full.
As for the other non-combat elements needed for the advancement of the Skeleton Legion, they seemed to have all been ignored, leaving only the simplest and most direct three things: soul energy particles, negative energy, and soul fire.
Then, the terrifying vortex in the sky, like a water pump, frantically sucked out the soul energy particles, negative energy, and soul fire in the earth, turning them into rays of light that fell on every skeleton warrior.
boom!
Golden flames ignited from the bodies of the skeleton warriors, and the earth was shaking as if it was wailing, but the vortex in the sky still used its extremely strong suction force to snatch the [blood] of the Death Territory, snatching it mercilessly.
Boom boom boom!!!
One after another, golden flames ignited on the bodies of the skeleton warriors. Their entire bodies seemed to be coated with a layer of gold foil. Their bones grew thicker and larger, but they did not have the soft texture of gold at all. Instead, they had a kind of indescribable "solidity".
[Silver Skeleton·Talion Empire Legion Heavy Infantry]——[ Gold Skeleton·Talion Empire Elite Double-Edged Lancer], [Gold Skeleton·Talion Empire Royal Guard Sergeant]
The advancement of the heavy infantry legion split it into two parts. The elite double-edged spearmen changed their weapons from sword and shield to double-edged spears, gaining a wider attack range, while the armor on their bodies became lighter.
The Imperial Guards were completely different from the Elite Double-Edged Spearmen. They wore thicker armor and carried more weapons. Swords, shields, spears, bows, they looked like a mobile arsenal.
The full-coverage heavy armor is like a city gate, and when the imperial guards gather together, it becomes a mobile fortress.
[Silver Skeleton·Talion Empire Heavy Cavalry]——[Gold Skeleton·Talion Empire Elite Armored Cavalry]
The elite armored cavalry are not only the people, but also the horses under them are heavily armed. They are holding spears and round shields. The equipment on their bodies gives people the feeling of one word: expensive!
The most expensive horses, the most expensive full body armor, the most expensive vests. Just by looking at them, you can tell that this is a cavalry built up with countless resources.
Their power is worthy of the equipment they are equipped with. Once they have formed a charge at a sufficient distance, the city gates or walls are no match for them .
[Silver Skeleton·Talion Empire Crossbowman]——[Gold Skeleton·Talion Empire Royal Guard Archer], [Gold Skeleton·Talion Empire Royal Guard Cavalry Archer]
After the upgrade, the Royal Guard Archer has a longer range, a stronger bow and arrow, and eyes that can see through the enemy's weaknesses and attack. Even Mo Cheng didn't know whether there was an organ that could be called an eye in that empty hole.
The Royal Guards Cavalry Archers are based on the Royal Guards Archers, but with enhanced mobility . They will become wolves on the plains, tearing off pieces of flesh from the enemy.
[Silver Skull·Talion Elementalist]——[Gold Skull·Talion Empire Elementalist]
The change in the Elemental Masters might be the biggest among all the arms. In one hand they hold a staff as tall as a person, and in the other hand they hold a magic book made of bones and human skin. The robes on their bodies have become as complicated and gorgeous as aristocratic dresses, and their bodies are wrapped in a layer of hazy energy, which looks like the outline of a human being.
When the advancement was completed, the wailing and trembling of the Death Territory finally stopped. When the Talion Empire Legion advanced, all the energy it needed was provided by the surrounding environment, and it happened that there were huge amounts of soul energy particles, negative energy, and soul fire in the Death Territory.
The Death Territory was hit hard as a result. It was not Mo Cheng or the Talion Empire Legion who took action, but a system that followed certain operating rules.
The previous attack extracted at least 50% of the Death Territory's reserve reserves. If it were a human, half of the blood, bone marrow, and various internal organs would be extracted instantly.
Thinking of this, Mo Cheng couldn't help but feel a little scared. If the advancement just now was not in the Death Territory, then what would these skeletons have to extract in order to advance?
The answer is not difficult to come to conclusion from the fact that the human soldiers who were far enough away had their souls sucked away by the whirlpool.
At the same time, Mo Cheng clearly felt the weakness of the ground beneath his feet, and immediately made the decision to "kill you while you're sick."
"Everyone keep up, let's keep going!"
There was no intention to explain to others, nor was there any extra time. Mo Cheng just said one sentence and then led the Talion Empire Legion to charge towards another city not far away.
The advancement of the Talion Empire Legion has increased their strength to almost the same as that of the Sixth Tier. With such a powerful and fearless legion, even if they face the Seventh Tier, they can make the Talion Empire Legion surround and kill them without taking any action.
"Could this legion really be the people of the empire once ruled by Emperor Wraith?"
"This advancement mode is very similar to the way Emperor Ostarion became Wraith Emperor."
