Volume 5: Protracted War Chapter 155: Khufu, the “Former Pharaoh” (1)
Although I am the strongest and the first witch king, the territory divided by the four NPC witch kings should be the largest for me, but now all the players are in power, everything can be resolved through negotiation, and there is no need to worry about internal strife. There is really no need to worry about so much - such a large corpse witch clan, tens of millions of corpse witches, most of them are only nominally under the jurisdiction, there is not enough energy to bring them all under the sect, and occupying a little more territory, what is the practical significance? The strength is still based on the number of corpse witches that have been conquered. Therefore, I happily accepted the proposal of Qiu Shui Chang Tian and Tian Xing, the four families divided the "world" equally, and then each sent 750,000 corpse witches, gathered an army of 3 million corpse witches, and marched to the "Yinfeng Valley".
As the four new witch kings, Qiushui Changtian, Tianxing and Qingwu Feiyang, reached a formal agreement, the entire corpse witch clan suddenly changed. All the corpse witch groups settled down and no longer migrated around in panic. Driven by the 200,000 corpse witches I dispatched, more and more corpse witches were concentrated in one place, crowded together, so that I could conquer them one by one, so as to avoid running around and wasting time. In this way, I can concentrate on signing "soul contracts" continuously, and I can conquer more than 10,000 corpse witches a day, which is more than double the efficiency than before. The Moonlight Treasure Box and Guopo Shanhe of Tongxin League, with the help of a few of their own people, as well as Longteng's Wangduantianya and Changlumanman, also conquered many corpse witches and gained a lot of benefits.
The old dynasty was completely overthrown, and the order of the Corpse Witches was in chaos. Everything had to be replanned. After a few days of hard work, I finally managed to stabilize the situation in my Corpse Witch territory. The "Blood Pool" was guarded tightly, and the "spies" of other forces had no chance of getting in. This was my "top secret" and must not be leaked. Even if someone learned about the existence of the "Blood Pool" holy land or even the secret of the Blood Witches' "First Embrace" from other Blood Witch royal families, that would be a matter for the future. It would be impossible to know the inside story in a short period of time. By then, I think my foundation would be stable. Even if they united again to cause some trouble, I would not be afraid. Many Corpse Witches have been stationed near the newly divided border to guard it. It's not because I'm worried that Qiu Shui Changtian and others would tear up the agreement and invade blatantly, but just to prevent the Corpse Witch community in the territory from panicking and "fleeing" because of my large-scale "expulsion" action. Once they cross the border, even if they are the other party's subordinates, I naturally can't "invite" them back.
I calculated that it was time for Taotao and Had to finish their soaking, so I set off for the "Hell Volcano" to subdue the volcano mummy they had been targeting, so as to continue the soaking qualification challenge for the "Hell Magma Pool" and conquer those more powerful beings who were ranked higher.
Ever since I learned from Gu Ben that Hades, the Nether Dragon King, might be a sinister guy, I have had an inexplicable fear of the "Hell Volcano". After all, Taotao's first challenge journey was quite thrilling. He unexpectedly encountered a sudden "violent period" of the "lava storm". Although the ending was ideal, he killed the tenth-ranked mutant skeleton general Ludi, which made Taotao win the challenge and obtain the qualification to soak in the "Hell Lava Pool" . However, if there was a slight mistake in the process, it might be me and Taotao who fell in the end, or even the three of us might die together. The only thing that can make me feel at ease is that my current strength is insignificant to Hades, the Nether Dragon King, and the Nether Dragon Clan. It cannot pose a direct threat in a short period of time. In addition, it is restricted by the system rules. I think they probably won't take too obvious hostile actions. As long as I am careful and pay attention to changes in the environment at any time, and don't be trapped by the "violent period" of the "lava storm", it shouldn't be too dangerous.
After meeting up with Taotao and the other four, I told them to pay attention to the "lava storm" again, and then started to look for the volcano mummy. Before that, I deliberately looked up the "Encyclopedia of Undead Creatures" and learned about mummies. Just like the high-level skeleton generals to the skeleton warriors, mummies are also high-level forms of zombies. They are rare in number, but much stronger. Even the weakest mummy is stronger than most zombie kings, equivalent to the terrifying giant bear knight . Mummies are melee physical attack soldiers. They have a solid body and are resistant to blows. They are especially resistant to magic. They have good attack power and a damage curse effect. Their mobility is slightly inferior, but they have high intelligence and are a very difficult race.
The mummies are divided into different levels based on their strength. From top to bottom, they are the pharaoh, the great mummies and the small mummies. The most obvious way to distinguish them is by height. The pharaoh is usually over three meters long, the great mummies are between two and two and a half meters long, and the small mummies are under 1.9 meters long. There is no limit on the number of pharaohs and the great and small mummies. When they are strong enough, they can be promoted through natural evolution. However, there are a total of twelve pharaohs with the most strength and status. They live in twelve great pyramids and have special abilities. They are called the twelve great pharaohs. The Pharaoh and even the Great Pharaoh do not have a direct subordinate relationship with the big and small mummies. They usually act in a low-key manner, do not have too many contacts with other races, and focus on their own cultivation. However, the twelve great pharaohs are not fixed. What is emphasized is that the capable will be in the position, and the mummy clan attaches great importance to honor. Every little mummy, at the beginning of its birth, longs to become the Great Pharaoh one day. Therefore, there is extremely fierce competition within the clan. Almost all mummies who become pharaohs want to win the position of Great Pharaoh through challenges, but they must strictly abide by the rules and can only fight one-on-one. Group fights are absolutely not allowed.
The volcanic mummy has fire attributes and is stronger than ordinary mummies. The guy found by Taotao is over 1.8 meters tall and should be a small mummy that is about to evolve. Although its own strength is a little weaker, it is far from the top eight immersion qualification holders. However, I can't find a more powerful volcanic undead creature at the moment, so I had to choose it. Anyway, Taotao and the others will rush up and fight together during the challenge. As long as they are smart and don't get killed too easily by the opponent, I think it should be of some use.
