Lord: My troops can evolve indefinitely.
85. The Shadow of Evil Appears
Upon seeing Ye Cheng and Ding Qisong appear, Luo Xuan and the other two in the group were delighted and greeted them.
"We almost couldn't hold on. A series of skeleton knights charged forward, and ordinary ground melee units really had a hard time withstanding them." Ye Cheng, a third-tier lord, couldn't help but complain.
Because his territory was relatively large, he encountered the most undead forces and was even the primary target of attacks in the surrounding area.
Fortunately, Ye Cheng himself was no ordinary person; he had steadily climbed the ladder step by step.
The troops within their own territory are very well-equipped and have no weaknesses.
With the addition of some defensive turrets and fuel-powered catapults, they finally managed to withstand the onslaught of the undead Scourge without major incident.
"However, I've received information that this is only the initial wave of the undead offensive, and there may be more to come," Ye Cheng warned.
Upon hearing this, the group thought for a moment and quickly realized what was going on.
Even if you manage to withstand the undead calamity, there will always be times when you can't.
That portion of the undead army won't just disappear without a trace. After wandering around and gathering together, they will definitely launch a second attack on the surviving territory.
"Why worry so much? They're just here to give us experience and troop cards, so don't be afraid!"
Ding Qisong encouraged them, saying that although the undead calamity was terrifying, some low-level undead were easy to kill, not much different from mowing the grass, it was practically a door-to-door delivery of warmth.
"That's right, Xiao Ding is right. Everyone should have confidence that the various factions in the game will definitely take action."
Ye Cheng also spoke.
Ultimately, the players are still outsiders; the various factions on the continent of Aetheran are the ones who most want to eradicate the undead Scourge.
"Now only Raymond Lam is left, I wonder how he is doing."
Of the seven people in the group, only Raymond Lam has not yet appeared, besides Zhao Wenjie.
Some people are worried, while others think there's no problem.
After all, Lin Feng possesses strong lord-level talent and signed the agreement with them back then, so his strength is not lacking.
Time passed slowly as everyone chatted, and soon it was evening.
At this point, various summary posts began to appear on the forum.
There are casualty statistics, statistics on the scope of the undead scourge, predictions of undead troop strength, and summaries of the clearing operations by various forces.
In short, Luo Xuan spent an entire afternoon intensively browsing the forum and basically got a general understanding of the situation.
First, the undead calamity has broken out in full force, not just within the Tianyu Empire.
The Kingdom of Saint Loen and the Commercial Federation of Ochis were also hit by the undead scourge.
Even the orcish kingdom of Grol's Empire and the elven kingdom of the Court of Light were attacked by the Scourge of the Undead.
However, compared to the Tianyu Empire, the Kingdom of Saint Loen, which is skilled in holy light magic and has a large number of churches within its borders, was quite adept at dealing with the undead calamity, and its losses were not too exaggerated.
As for the Orchis Commercial Federation, due to its extensive use of alchemical machinery and technological products, the undead's foundation is relatively weak, and the undead scourge is the least powerful of all regions.
As for the Garden of Light, life magic also counters the undead, and with the help of the many ancient trees in the forest, it did not cause too much of a problem.
However, in the orc kingdom, where customs remain relatively barbaric and the belief in the supremacy of the strong prevails, the undead resurrected from the orcs are generally stronger.
Furthermore, the orcs didn't have many good countermeasures and could only engage in direct combat with the undead.
In short, the most dire situation on the continent of Aetheran is currently faced by the Tianyu Empire and the Grol Empire, while the remaining kingdoms of Saint Loen, the Ochis Commercial Federation, and the Court of Light are in a relatively better position.
As for the Naga in the sea, since there is relatively little relevant information, Luo Xuan could roughly estimate the situation in the sea based on what Shen Ce said.
In the evening, Zhao Wenjie, who had disappeared for a day, finally reappeared.
"How is everyone? Are you all alright?"
Zhao Wenjie's first words were to inquire about everyone's situation.
Today, Zhao Wenjie was extremely busy with the undead calamity problem, and he was too lazy to scroll through the long list of messages in the group, so he simply asked directly.
Luo Xuan and the others replied one after another.
"Huh? Where's Lin Feng?" Zhao Wenjie quickly realized that one person was missing.
"Lin Feng hasn't arrived yet, Captain Zhao," Shen Ce replied.
Upon hearing this, Zhao Wenjie frowned; this was not good news.
When Zhao Wenjie first learned that Lin Feng had the talent of a lord, he was very optimistic about him. Otherwise, he wouldn't have gone to such lengths to explain and recommend troop types to him.
"They probably just have some unfinished business in the territory, they might come soon," Luo Xuan comforted him.
It's been more than half a day since the Scourge erupted, and what was going to end has long since ended.
Even Zhao Wenjie had finished his work and appeared.
Everyone had some bad thoughts, but no one dared to point them out.
"Alright, since Lin Feng hasn't arrived yet, let's talk to you guys first."
Zhao Wenjie said in the group chat.
Seeing this, Luo Xuan and the other four also stared intently at the screen, waiting for Zhao Wenjie's next instructions.
Without keeping everyone waiting any longer, Zhao Wenjie got straight to the point:
"The undead scourge in this game is not a simple matter; large-scale undead invasions have occurred in many places around the world."
Upon hearing Zhao Wenjie's words, Luo Xuan's expression immediately turned serious.
"Captain Zhao, what exactly do you mean?" Ye Cheng asked directly.
Clearly, Luo Xuan wasn't the only one who realized something was wrong.
Although the others did not speak, they were clearly watching as well.
"It means exactly what it says," Zhao Wenjie continued. "Just as the undead scourge began in the game, the real world was also affected."
"Several cities in our country have been attacked by large numbers of undead, such as Nanjing in our province."
Zhao Wenjie didn't hide anything and told the whole story directly.
"How could this be?!" Luo Xuan was greatly surprised.
Although there have been instances of games invading reality before, Luo Xuan himself has encountered this several times and even dealt with it.
However, this situation clearly cannot be dismissed as "accidental" or "random".
This was a premeditated attack!
But why is there no sound at all on the forum?
Just as Luo Xuan was about to ask this question, Zhao Wenjie continued:
"The authorities have implemented controls, and related information is not available online, but the situation did indeed occur."
"According to information from colleagues in Jinling, there is a high possibility that an evil cult is behind this undead invasion."
