Players' Undead Followers (2)

"Oh? This is the new event?"

Upon receiving the news, Singo immediately rode his Wyvern to the scene.

"Let's land here."

"Tsk, we're still a step too late. Why didn't the authorities give us any advance notice?"

The Wyvern he rode flapped its wings, slowly circling, and finally landed in the Dragon Parking Lot near the Embers of the Burned Emperor Square.

Traffic control in Istaria has become increasingly strict recently, with Tiefling Guard from the city management department constantly patrolling the streets.

Even though Singo is a Viscount of the Empire, he will still get a ticket for illegally parking his Wyvern.

It is said that Chief Minister Lang Pu once set an example by personally paying the compensation—and since then, no Dragon Blood Noble has dared to disobey traffic rules, and even the most ferocious and brutal Ogre have to wait obediently.

"But... we don't need to squeeze in with these people anymore."

Singo took out an exquisite pair of binoculars inlaid with gold wire from his backpack and looked at the billboard in the distance.

This is a piece of equipment specially provided to the Red Scale Conqueror by the garrison – the "Wyvern's Eye". It not only uses optical principles to see things in the distance, but also comes with an omniscient spell that can detect magical fluctuations.

With the help of the "Wyvern's Eye," Singleo was able to see the notice in the distance, but related pictures have already begun to circulate on the forum.

New event location for the Embers of the Burned Empire faction—

The Undead Creature Research Institute officially opened on October 11th, 1786 (New Era)! [Introduction: In the Kermi Mountains of western Carter Kingdom lies the terrifying Bewildering Valley. It is said that mournful howls often echo from here, and all who enter the Bewildering Valley are lost within, becoming eternally trapped souls.][According to the writings left by long-gone Bard, a terrifying lich dwells in this valley, known as the "Soul Lamenter," a nightmare for all the living, a shepherd of ghosts, and a messenger of Myrkul.] "Wait, this description..."

"It feels a bit like a horror game instance, doesn't it?"

Singo frowned slightly. He had exchanged experience for knowledge from the "Encyclopedia of Imperial Necromancy" and learned about liches— Undead Creatures —each of which was a sinister and insane immortal being.

At the same time, they are often powerful spellcasters comparable to legendary necromancers, beings that modern players are far from capable of Contend Against.

"Are we going to fight the lich?"

He raised this question.

However, the next notice board took a turn, switching back to the familiar style that conveyed "loyalty."

[But now, under the glorious rule of the invincible Your Majesty Keosius, the Anzeta Great Wasteland has been conquered by the great Embers of the Burned Empire, and the liches, captivated by His Majesty's power and character, have voluntarily become loyal subjects of the Empire!][The Bewildering Valley, once a forbidden zone for the living, has been transformed into the Empire's [Undead Creature Research Institute]. We are dedicated to ensuring that all Undead Creatures can contribute to the Empire's development!] Event Leader: Soul Lamenter Aurest Event Details:

Starfallers bring the most complete corpses and skeletons you can to the [Undead Creature Research Institute] to find the person in charge, [Soul Lamenter - Aurest].

By offering corpses and skeletons to the research institute and spending a certain amount of experience and Gold Coin at the Lich's location, you will obtain a special item: the Undead Follower Rental Contract.

(Note: This item is permanent. You will have three chances per day to summon the transformed Undead Follower, each lasting fifteen minutes.) (The strength of the Undead Follower is determined by the strength of the deceased in life and the type of transformation.) "This is... a permanent minion?"

Singo's pupils contracted slightly as he instantly realized the importance of this event—it meant he could pull all the bosses he had killed in the past out of their graves and turn them into his minions!

Furthermore, the [Undead Follower Rental Contract] is permanently valid, offering up to three summoning opportunities per day! "This event launched by the official team is simply too generous!"

He couldn't help but sigh.

It's important to understand that at this stage, even players who play necromancers can only create the lowest-level skeletons at most.

Moreover, they don't have an artifact like "Myrkul's Bone Scepter," so the Undead Creatures they create will soon turn back into ordinary skeletons, which is almost useless to a high-level player like him!

The Undead Follower Rental Contract is completely different; it can even transform former bosses into followers! "The 'corpse summoning strategy' might be on the horizon!"

"We must seize the initiative immediately, otherwise the remains of those bosses will be looted by the powerful families who have the advantage in numbers!"

Singo's eyes sharpened, and he casually untied the rope knot in front of him, skillfully flipping over and mounting the Wyvern.

"Wyvern, depart immediately!"

"Aww~~"

The Wyvern let out a roar, flapped its wings, and flew towards the southwestern outskirts of the city—where Singo had once soloed a bandit stronghold.

Inside is a bandit leader boss with Half Giant blood, standing thirteen feet tall and Challenge Rating of nine. He tricked and poisoned the bandits, and now he can be put to good use.

At the same time, he also sent the message to the remaining three people in the group.

Singo: Hurry up and grab the corpse!

I'm Going to Eat Mantou:?

I'm Going to Eat Mantou: Have you gone mad?

Born Battle Maniac: Steamed Bun, check the forum, this is the latest event.

Born Battle Maniac: It is said that the leaders of those powerful guilds are fighting like crazy. They each led hundreds of people to fight for the ownership of the Frost Giant battlefield. The scene was quite something.

Born Battle Maniac: [Screenshot]

I'm Going to Eat Mantou: Is that even possible?

Xia Ye Qiuyu: I give up. All the bosses I've fought have been burned to ashes (TT) "Roar—"

The Wyvern let out a long roar, then circled down onto the hillside, next to the inconspicuous cave.

Singo moved quickly and soon arrived at the hideout where the robbers were hiding.

"Very good!"

"This outpost hasn't been discovered yet!"

Without any disgust, he wrapped up the corpse of the Half Giant leader, which was surrounded by flies and emitted a strong stench of decay.

After several days of fermentation, the corpse, which already possessed giant blood, had rotted and swelled up, becoming a complete "Giant Corpse."

But Singo didn't care at all; in fact, he was quite excited. After laboriously finishing "packing," he shouted, "Wyvern, to the Carter Duchy!"

"Huh?"

Even the Wyvern, which had a scavenging habit, tilted its head in confusion and covered its nostrils with its forelimbs.

"Never mind that, take this body with you, we need to hurry."

"Aww!"

Under its master's command, the Wyvern could only disdainfully lift the stinking corpse, which was wrapped in cloth but could not hide its stench, and flap its wings to fly away into the distance.

Fortunately Atavistic Wyvern was powerful and fast.

Before long, they traversed a small part of Anzeta and arrived at the Bewildering Valley in the western part of the Carter Duchy —the location of the Undead Creature Research Institute.

"Phew, not too late."

Singo rode on the back of the Wyvern and wiped the sweat from his forehead.

There were already more than a dozen people queuing at the entrance of the research institute. They were mostly dragging corpses and skeletons, and some were even carrying a coffin on their backs.
