Chapter 815: 538

Not attacking Efanso citizens leaves no choice but to target outsiders.

Thus, Grace’s words were likely true, their reputation in Efanso appeared genuinely good, with many Efanso citizens sincerely supporting them.

This situation isn’t unique to Efanso, it could occur among many evil forces.

Many bandits would not only abstain from robbing villages around their lairs but would unusually help them, occasionally distributing a portion of their loot, so when troops came to suppress these bandits, the villages that benefited from their generosity wouldn’t assist, and might even tip them off or provide military support.

This is the old saying, "Rabbits don’t eat the grass by their burrow."

This does not mean these bandits have turned into good people.

Likewise, it does not imply that all the missing people in the Giant Dragon Coast are due to Efanso.

This place is a realm of chaos, murder among fellow species, human trafficking, monsters’ secret predation, pirates and bandits are all reasons behind the disappearances, especially human trafficking which plays a significant role. Felen and other countries still have not abolished slavery, notably exemplified by Karinshan and Ser.

Where there’s trade, there’s harm.

It isn’t certain that Efanso directly kidnaps subjects; it’s more straightforward through slave traders since slaves, which even cost less than livestock on the slave market, have very low running costs.

Fan Ruina took a deep breath to calm herself before continuing, "Arms used his experiments on the Undead Soldiers, particularly the Bone Dragon Agasha. We were ambushed in the process of disrupting their deal with a slave trader, and our captain got injured saving me from Agasha’s surprise attack."

"What stage has Arms’ plague virus research reached? Does it have the capacity for mass contagion, like through biting?" Gaven’s primary concern was still the plague epidemic.

"The plague virus I contracted is incredibly troublesome, not only does it infect the body, but it also erodes the soul, entangling with my negative emotions which causes it to flare up repeatedly, making it nearly impossible to fully eradicate." This time, Yeshandalah herself answered Gaven, "However, up till now, it hasn’t demonstrated the ability to spread, only those hit by Agasha’s claws, teeth, and serrated wings experience this condition."

"Is this virulent attack exclusively possessed by that Bone Dragon, or do all their Undead Soldiers bear it?" Veranika inquired.

"Currently, only that Bone Dragon, but there are rumors that Arms recently made a secret deal with a Ghost Witch Assembly from the Far Sea Marsh, acquiring a method called Bone Claw for creating a potent Undead Creature. It’s rumored to be a formidable Undead Soldier that Arms employs to harbor this unique virus. Yet, no one has truly seen it," Yeshandalah and her team were open about the information regarding Efanso, not deliberately hiding anything to woo Gaven and his Conqueror Army, doing so would only cast a shadow over the cooperation from the start.

The rumors she mentioned were definitely not unsubstantiated gossip but information gathered by spies they had planted in Efanso, which couldn’t be fully verified.

"Bone Claw?" Gaven quickly searched his brain for information on this familiar name, and seconds later, he followed up, "Has Efanso been actively purchasing large quantities of large humanoid creature corpses recently?"

This was less of a question and more of a statement, as Grace’s first deal attempted to acquire a large amount of Troll Corpses from him.

Yeshandalah considered for a moment before nodding involuntarily, "Indeed, since last year, they’ve particularly focused on large humanoid creature corpses, and earlier this year, they even sent an Undead Army trying to delve into the Giant Plains to gather bodies, which we disrupted. Thinking about it, their primary target was the gigantic corpses in the Giant Plains. What’s the matter? Could this be related to the Bone Claw I just mentioned? Have you seen a Bone Claw? Would it be convenient to share a bit about it?"

"If so, the Bone Claw you mentioned and the one I know should be the same entity," Gaven spoke gravely, "They are not merely skeletons patched together. Instead, they are legendary, large Sage Undead created by a Legendary Witch Gathering, at least starting at Transcendent level. Their claws, which extend several decimeters hence their name, their combat abilities alone are quite astonishing. If coupled with the tailored plague toxin, they would become an extremely terrifying war machine on any battlefield."

"Sage Undead!" Yeshandalah’s cheeks involuntarily twitched again.

The most significant drawback of Undead facing sentient creatures was their lack of Intelligence.

This deficiency provided sentient creatures a chance to defeat them.

But once Undead creatures possess Intelligence, their threat level significantly escalates.

Undead Creature Traits confer immunity to several control techniques, effectively nullifying many combat skills and Special Abilities.
