Fangzhou spent the remaining tens of thousands of soul points to deduce and master some of the necromancer skills with the highest learning priority.

This also nearly depleted all of his savings from this period of time.

This accumulation refers not only to the accumulation of soul power and contribution points, but also to the knowledge reserves and skill materials that Ark has obtained through various means, as well as all the research results of the necromancer research group led by Su Xinyan and Sandru during this period.

There are still some skills that are not so urgent to be deduced and improved. Ark plans to wait until the next stage, when it has suitable skill inspiration, before deducing them.

Objectively speaking, due to the impending depletion of soul power and contribution points, Ark has no choice but to temporarily set aside these skills and wait until it has more soul power to make further plans.

The saying "money makes the world go round" perfectly describes the current state of Ark.

During his apprentice and Iron stages, he could improve himself almost at will, thanks to his abundant soul power and contribution points.

However, just as he broke through the bottleneck and advanced to the Bronze-level Necromancer, before he could accumulate any power, the soul power and contribution points he had painstakingly saved up were completely exhausted in the process of this series of upgrades.

At this moment, the Ark seemed to have returned to the time when it was first awakened and was penniless.

This undoubtedly greatly slowed down his progress.

How to acquire more contribution points and soul power has once again become a major problem facing Ark.

Over the next few days, Fangzhou adapted to his rapidly increasing strength in the skill training grounds of Beast City. He was originally planning to go to the Beast Mountain Range to practice against the outer beasts, but a sudden attack disrupted his plans.

Beneath the blood moon, a wasteland of strife.

As Fangzhou envisioned, he deliberately chose the location of the cemetery of corpses to be the undead territory from which he had initially teleported.

the reason is simple.

Firstly, the area is relatively remote, making it a good place to defend and difficult to attack.

It is impossible to breach one's own cemetery without paying a terrible price.

Secondly, all the undead lords with any real power in the vicinity were wiped out by the Ark's recent sweeping operations, so there are basically no ones left who can threaten them.

Therefore, Fangzhou was very reassured, believing that there should be no safety issues there.

However, he never expected that his own cemetery would be attacked after he had only been wandering around the Bone Plains for a little over ten days.

When Ark rushed back to the vicinity of the cemetery, the war was not yet over.

Tryndamere, under Olaf's tutelage, does indeed possess some ability. At the very least, his mastery of low-level undead units such as zombies and ghouls far surpasses that of other low-level lords in this warring wasteland.

Skeleton archers, skeletal archers, and other ranged units were all deployed to the city walls, divided into three teams to take turns attacking, maintaining maximum coverage and damage at all times.

Moreover, because the three teams take turns attacking, there is no need to worry about running out of arrows or energy.

The concentration of death energy in the cemetery far exceeds that of other places, and a period of rest is enough for these undead to sustain them for a long time in battle.

Tryndamere himself led the Corpse Warriors at the forefront.

The Corpse Warrior possesses the strongest power and greatest destructive force among all ordinary undead.

Although its agility is relatively low and its defense is not very good, in a head-on battle, it is not like two masters dueling where you can move up and down.

There's only so much space for you, and you're surrounded by your comrades or enemies, so there's no room to maneuver.

As for defense, the Corpse Warriors need not worry about it at all.

Beside every single one of the skeletal warriors stood a giant shield-wielding skeleton warrior.

Their mission is to block as many attacks as possible aimed at themselves and their comrades.

The defensive power of the Giant Shield Skeleton Warrior and the offensive power of the Corpse Warrior were perfectly combined under Tryndamere's control.

Of course, while Tryndamere's troop deployment was quite impressive, the most crucial factor was the comprehensive strategy provided by Ark.

He had long ago conceived of the idea of ​​combining two or more types of troops to leverage their strengths and compensate for their weaknesses.

With his own military skills, he could command better than Thandami.

However, Ark is now the lord of the Corpse Graveyard, commanding an army of nearly 50,000 undead.

It would be a waste of time to always make him act as the army commander, personally go to the front line and do everything himself.

Therefore, Ark had long ago begun to have Olaf train a group of undead commanders with basic military skills.

Tryndamere is one of the best among them.

It specializes in war command, and its intuition about war is so profound that it can surprise even Ark.

However, although our side has the advantage in military command and inter-unit coordination, the enemy has the advantage in numbers.

The nearly 100,000 skeletons and zombies surged forward like a vast white sea, wave after wave.

This terrifying scene makes anyone wonder what could possibly keep them from being swallowed up by such a white wave.

However, Tryndamere's command abilities and the undead army left behind by the Ark in the Graveyard were indeed powerful enough.

Although they outnumbered their opponents, the undead under Ark's command were elite, far superior to the enemy's ragtag army.

It was precisely for this reason, coupled with Tryndamere's special talent and tactical command that enhanced the strength of his subordinates, that even though his side had fewer people than the opponent, he did not actually suffer much casualties.

On the contrary, the other side repeatedly failed at the gates of the Corpse Cemetery.

The Ark and 150 undead knights stood guard on the back mountain, followed by thousands of newly tamed undead mounts.

He believed that once his elite cavalry joined the battle, the evenly matched situation would be immediately rewritten.

Not to mention, he himself was the terrifying knight lord, capable of fighting against thousands of troops, to support him.

The overwhelming dominance that higher-level undead have over relatively lower-level undead is no joke.

But Fangzhou didn't want that; he wanted to continue to observe Tryndamere's strength and potential.

Moreover, cavalry units, when they move, must target the enemy's strongest point.

He was still silently searching for the enemy's zombie lord.

Once the enemy lord is eliminated, the Ark will be able to directly crush this army of nearly 100,000 undead.

Since arriving in the Conflicting Wasteland, Ark has probably subdued close to 200,000 low-level undead such as skeletons and zombies.

However, after the Ark went through a series of training, elimination, sacrifice, and synthesis processes, it was a miracle that 50,000 of the 200,000 skeletons remained.

In general, Ark is currently lacking everything.

They lacked both resources and time, as well as basic manpower for the undead.

No matter what world or era, wars ultimately boil down to fighting for money and people.

In the Land of the Dead, money is basically useless.

After all, the undead don't need wages, military pay, or food, so they naturally don't need logistics.

However, the quantity and quality of "people," that is, the dead, became the key factor in determining victory or defeat.

With these thoughts arising in his mind, Ark gained a deeper understanding of the Lord Wars in the Netherworld.

His eyes searched around and soon he found his target.

He dared not use his soul fire to search directly. While doing so would allow him to find the most powerful soul fire more quickly and pinpoint his target, it would also expose his location.

Using your eyes eliminates these problems.

As long as he deliberately suppresses his soul fire, he doesn't need to worry about being discovered by others.

Fangzhou quickly found his target.

At the very rear of the undead wave, a particularly imposing zombie roared madly, its soul fire intensely stimulating its undead minions, driving them to attack even more frantically.

It held a sharp bone spear in its hand and wore a rather luxurious flesh-and-blood helmet adorned with black runes.

First.

Judging from its appearance, this zombie lord is much stronger than the one that the Ark ambushed and eliminated when it first descended upon this world.

However, Fangzhou felt a surge of joy in his heart.

Indeed, this heavily armored zombie lord appears to be even stronger than Tryndamere in combat.

However, the problem is that Tryndamere is just one of Ark's Corpse Knight guards.

Fangzhou currently has a corrupt and abomination leader named Sion by his side, along with hundreds of undead knights as his personal guards and thousands of undead beast mounts.

Once these elite troops launch a group charge, this heavily armored zombie lord will have absolutely no way to withstand it.

However, Fangzhou doesn't want to take action right now, nor is he in a hurry to do so.

Now that this heavily armored zombie lord has appeared before him, he is determined not to let his opponent escape from his grasp.

Moreover, the battle has not yet entered the final stage, and the heavily armored zombie lord has not yet moved his stronghold.

Although the heavily armored zombie lord is not particularly powerful for the Ark, successfully killing it amidst a large army requires considerable effort.

Since the goal is to eliminate him, the objective must be to achieve victory from the outset.

Fang Zhou made up his mind that as soon as the heavily armored zombie lord made a move, he would immediately command his cavalry to launch a mass charge.

However, if the heavily armored zombie lord doesn't move, then he absolutely won't move no matter what.

Anyway, Tryndamere is now able to withstand the attacks of the heavily armored zombie lord.

The best time for the Ark to act will be when the heavily armored zombie lord and his zombie guards enter the battlefield together.

Tryndamere's battlefield command ability is too strong.

Compared to the undead world's common fighting style, which basically lacks tactics and relies entirely on individual ability and population size, Tryndamere's tactics can essentially be described as a dimensional reduction attack.

As Tryndamere's opponent, the heavily armored zombie lord is becoming increasingly irritable.

It roared frantically, urging its troops to speed up their attack.

But no matter how much it roared, no matter how many people it sent, it could never get past Tryndamere's seemingly weak defenses on the walls of the Corpse Cemetery.

In the distance, Fangzhou nodded in satisfaction.

It seems Tryndamere is holding out long enough, and this heavily armored zombie lord probably can't sit still any longer.

Sure enough, not long after, the heavily armored zombie lord let out a roar, and the undead troops in front of him immediately parted to make way.

Leading his five hundred zombie guards, the heavily armored zombie lord headed straight for the front lines!
