Lord: My troops can evolve indefinitely.

"What?!"

Although they had somewhat anticipated it, everyone was still very surprised when they actually heard about the evil cult.

They were just discussing this in the group chat, and they never expected to actually encounter it so soon.

Ye Cheng, Lin Mufeng, and Ding Qisong didn't say much and immediately went to deal with their own matters.

Luo Xuan and the others were only at the first level, and although they had good potential, the Liangyi Division did not assign them any tasks.

"be safe!"

"Please stay safe, everyone!"

Luo Xuan and the other two offered their blessings.

As Zhao Wenjie posted the task, the previously lively group chat instantly fell silent.

Ye Cheng and his two companions left to participate in the mission, and Luo Xuan and his two companions lost interest in talking, so the group chat gradually quieted down.

The next day, Luo Xuan opened his eyes and checked the group chat, only to find no messages from Ye Cheng or the others.

Although somewhat worried, Luo Xuan suppressed his concerns and opened the forum to check the information.

Today is the second day of the Scourge, and there are even more related posts than yesterday.

From the forum, Luo Xuan learned that the undead army within the Tianyu Empire had gathered in the Starshine Plain in the central part of the country, confronting the main force of the Tianyu Empire.

To say it was a standoff wouldn't be accurate, because fighting was happening almost every moment.

Although the low-level undead creatures are not strong, there are simply too many of them, and new undead units are constantly gathering from all over the world.

There was even a dedicated live stream thread on the forum, broadcasting the entire battle between the Tianyu Empire's army and the Undead Scourge.

One analysis that has gained widespread acceptance is that both sides are currently in a probing phase, engaging in small-scale skirmishes to gather intelligence on each other.

This probing is expected to last for two or three days before a formal large-scale battle takes place.

Luo Xuan agreed with it after reading it.

However, because Luo Xuan is currently far from the main battlefield, he cannot get a good understanding of the specific situation and can only learn about the news from the forum.

As a result of this undead calamity, large numbers of skeletons have resurrected in various places.

The Tianyu Empire's army, except for the garrison needed to guard the border, was almost entirely mobilized to exterminate the undead forces.

Luo Xuan was quite confident about this. After all, the Tianyu Empire was one of the three major powers of mankind, and it wouldn't be wiped out by a single undead calamity.

Besides the situation of the Tianyu Empire, people on the forum are also updating information about other countries.

Like the Tianyu Empire, the orc kingdom of Grol also suffered a large number of undead attacks.

However, compared to the caution of the Tianyu Empire, the orcs of Grol were much wilder.

Although the undead that have resurrected in the orcish kingdom are stronger, the undead forces have clearly fallen into a disadvantageous position under the orcs' fearless and ferocious offensive, and it seems that their annihilation is only a matter of time.

Before the undead forces could gather on a large scale, the Kingdom of Saint Loen had already wiped out the main force of the undead using powerful holy light magic, and now it had entered the stage of cleaning up the remaining remnants.

It can be said that it has the fastest cleanup progress among all the major forces.

The speed of the Elven Garden of Light was by no means slow.

The undead that revived first in the Garden of Light were the fewest in number across the land, and they also had a large number of ancient trees to help them clear the area, so the process was quite fast.

As for the Ochis Commercial Federation, things aren't so good.

Long-term peace and trade development have led to a shift in the Federation's focus.

The Federation no longer has a dedicated army; instead, it has various alchemical golems and manipulators.

These mechanical and alchemical units could be quite effective against the flesh-and-blood armies of other nations.

However, these machines and alchemical golems are not very effective against an army of undead that has no flesh and blood, is tireless, and is fearless.

Fortunately, the Federation has equipped each city with a large number of defensive weapons, so there are no security issues for the time being.

Luo Xuan browsed the forums to get some information before logging into the game.

Upon entering the game, Luo Xuan appeared in the territory, but he looked around and did not find Azathoth or Lilith.

I used the Lord's Mark to sense them and found that they were both not far from the territory.

After getting a general understanding of the situation, Luo Xuan suddenly realized.

It turns out that as time went by, the effects of the undead calamity began to slowly ferment, and the corpses deep underground nearby gradually revived and crawled out from underground.

Fortunately, none of the resurrected undead creatures were particularly strong; they were mostly first-tier grunts.

While Luo Xuan was offline, Azathoth and Lilith continuously killed the resurrected undead creatures in the surrounding area to protect the safety of their territory.

"here you go!"

When Azathoth and Lilith returned to their territory, Luo Xuan praised them generously.

At this moment, Azathoth handed Luo Xuan two unit cards, and Lilith also handed Luo Xuan one.

Luo Xuan took a look and found two small skeletons and one skeleton archer.

Luo Xuan has already built the Tomb of the Dead and has no shortage of skeletons, so these two cards are only useful for trading.

As for the skeleton archers, they're not bad; they might be of some use.

Luo Xuan carefully put away the three cards, then prepared to take Azathoth and Lilith out for an exploration.

Considering safety issues, Luo Xuan ultimately decided to leave Azathoth in the territory to guard the house, replacing him with a gray wolf.

With a wolf and a spider by his side, Luo Xuan headed north.

As they ventured further out of the territory, the number of monsters along the way surged, especially undead monsters, which made up eight or nine out of ten of them.

After evolving, Lilith became incredibly powerful, and with the Venom Bomb clearing the way, Luo Xuan and his companions didn't encounter too much trouble.

After traversing the wilderness and crossing the valley, Luo Xuan, along with Lilith and the gray wolf, reappeared at a distance below the cliff where the harpy's lair was located.

Looking into the distance, Luo Xuan noticed that there were many harpies patrolling around the nest, occasionally unleashing lightning chain attacks downwards.

Following the direction of the harpy's attack, Luo Xuan saw a large number of white bones.

As a chain of lightning struck, the two skeleton soldiers instantly disintegrated, their bones scattering around them and becoming part of the pile of bones.

Seeing this, Luo Xuan frowned slightly.

He had originally planned to check if the Scourge had any impact on the harpies, and see if he could take advantage of the machine tools to go there, or wipe out the harpy lairs.

However, it now appears that the Scourge's impact on the Harpy is very limited.

Seeing this, Luo Xuan temporarily abandoned his intention to continue north and turned east, intending to travel east along the Falling Moon Mountains to see if he could find anything.
