Liu Zhi knew so much about the White Bears, but it wasn't because he wanted to challenge their position in the Arctic Circle.
It was because, while studying their corpses, he had discovered that the White Bears were actually creatures with considerable potential.
Over the past few days, Liu Zhi had realized that besides the power of ice and snow, the White Bears' bodies also contained a trace of earth-aspected power.
This was incomprehensible to Liu Zhi.
Earth-aspected power shouldn't exist here. Beneath this ice plain was no land, but an ocean—a sea completely sealed beneath the ice.
So if there were an element here other than ice and snow, it should have been water. Or perhaps the polar day and night might have given rise to light or darkness.
Liu Zhi couldn't understand how earth-aspected power, so unsuited to this place, could have appeared here.
This discovery had almost interrupted his research on the White Bear corpses. Fortunately, Liu Zhi knew his own abilities and knew why he was here. In the end, he didn't investigate the earth-aspected power further. He simply turned the White Bear corpses into undead and left it at that.
By the time Videnina returned, Liu Zhi already had about fifty Undead Bears under his command.
Liu Zhi had used every method he knew to create these Undead Bears.
He hadn't treated the White Bear corpses as food. At most, he'd removed their Bear Bile.
He'd processed the remaining organs using the methods he used to make mummies. He'd also skinned the bears and treated their hides, sewing a large amount of wire mesh into the insides.
He'd treated the White Bears' flesh in much the same way. Using some of his flesh-undead techniques, he'd shaped the flesh into lumps, then stitched them back in
