Global Lord: My Undead Can Undergo Fission
Chapter 206: The Grey Tide

Chapter 206: Chapter 206: The Grey Tide

"Look, what is that?" a soldier on the city wall asked as he gazed at a white mass in the distance.

"Not good, this is an enemy attack, report it quickly," the person next to him reacted even faster.

In an instant, everyone in the city became tense. Although they were nervous, they were well-organized, as they had already mentally prepared for this.

Civilians within the city had long been evacuating to the rear, leaving mostly soldiers in the city now.

Of course, there were also those who didn’t want to leave, but their safety was no longer anyone’s concern. It wasn’t just ignoring them; they had to be monitored, as no one knew how many among them were enemy spies.

However, since the enemies were the Undead, the monitoring had been significantly relaxed.

The white mass surged forward like a tidal wave, and as it got closer, everyone could finally see what it was made of.

The main components of the white wave were Skeleton Soldiers and Skull Archers; all the Undead Creatures fearlessly charged toward them. Even if some fell along the way, others would trample over them.

Some would rise again, while others were crushed to bits, but before succumbing to death, they would still push forward relentlessly.

That fanaticism, that fearlessness, made the soldiers on the city walls keep swallowing their saliva.

"Fire," suddenly, a resolute voice commanded, and the catapults behind unleashed their power. One by one, huge fireballs fell towards the white tide, some engulfed in blazing flames.

Each stone or fireball that landed would blast a crater in the white waves. Some continued to plow forward, carving a pathway straight through.

However, these marks would disappear into the waves moments later, looking just as they did before.

From a distance, it seemed as if nothing had changed at all.

"These Undead are really troublesome; once they gather in numbers, they become this difficult to deal with."

The city’s commander, observing the Undead from afar, looked increasingly distressed. The frontline had fallen, resulting in him now having to confront these Undead Creatures, yet this city was not even meant to be a fortress.

If the city were destroyed, generations of development would suffer a devastating blow.

For a Lord Noble, this was a fate more severe than death itself.

"Indeed, we never expected them to grow to this extent. The Blue Sand Kingdom even collaborated with them, aren’t they afraid of being bitten back?" another person said indignantly.

"Look to the skies, they are coming, ready the Dragon Binding Ropes."

Nearby, several huge frame-like weapons, already prepared, were pushed forward. They shimmered with flowing light, clearly inscribed with countless runes and arrays, all hidden beneath layers of straw.

In the sky, accompanied by a dragon’s roar, two Skeleton Flying Dragons emerged.

"It’s Bone Dragons, we are going to die," many soldiers below started to panic. They couldn’t tell the difference between Flying Dragons and giant dragons, let alone these dragons that had turned into bones.

"Shut your mouths, anyone who disturbs the morale of the troops dies."

The supervisor slashed a disordered soldier to death, then shouted loudly to everyone else.

At this time, everyone finally calmed down a bit. The Skeletons hadn’t charged over yet, and they were already disintegrating on this side; it was quite embarrassing no matter how one looked at it.

Although they had mentally prepared themselves early on, facing this scene still filled them with immense fear.

Just as two Skeleton Flying Dragons approached, suddenly, some glowing, rope-like objects emerged from below. Because of their swift speed and close proximity, the two Skeleton Flying Dragons had no time to react and were entangled on the spot.

These ropes were released from a few box-like objects.

Accompanied by the impact of a heavy object hitting the ground, the Skeleton Flying Dragons directly fell into the city, instantly destroying the surrounding buildings.

"Quick, follow me, let’s kill these flying dragons,"

a knight in full armor bellowed, with others charging behind him. The terrifying aura that burst forth indicated that these were two Gold-level knights, leading several Silver levels.

Dealing with two Skeleton Flying Dragons in such a manner showed the extent they valued them.

The Skeleton Flying Dragons didn’t care much, and unable to fly, when they saw people charging toward them and felt threatened, one sprayed a gray-white Dragon Breath that carried a horrific Death Aura.

The other lightly jumped, and realizing it couldn’t fly, hadn’t completely landed when it opened its mouth to release a sphere—the Death Aura Bomb Skill.

A Gold Knight blocked the Death Aura Bomb, but then it exploded.

Instantly, the Gold Knight spat out blood, his face turned pale, and numerous Silver-level warriors around him were killed or injured.

Even though they were trapped, they still possessed such combat power, making these warriors even more solemn. At this moment, at the city’s edge, the Undead Creatures finally approached.

The fearless Skull Soldiers, stepping on their comrades, tried to climb the city wall.

Meanwhile, the people on the city wall desperately threw various objects down, trying to block the Skull Soldiers’ climbing. However, this kind of blockade didn’t work well, and eventually, many Skull Soldiers surged up.

The ranged attacks had already started clashing early on. The soldiers on the city wall threw stones far down, while the Skeleton Shooters below continuously fired, using barrages to injure people on the wall.

The soldiers had long known that arrows weren’t effective against these Skeletons, hence they switched to stones.

During this period, they had already practiced throwing stones.

Even if a stone didn’t hit a Skeleton’s head, it could still break its bones, much more effective than arrows. The only drawback was that the stones’ attack range was far inferior to that of arrows, putting them at a disadvantage in terms of range.

"Luckily these Undead Creatures don’t have high-level shooters, otherwise we’d be in danger."

The opposing shooters were only at Apprentice Level; if their level rose to that of other melee troops, their city would have fallen long ago.

After not much time, good news came from inside the city: the two Skeleton Flying Dragons were killed.

But what they didn’t know was that three Gold-level knights in the city had also been killed. In terms of cost, these three Gold Knights were much more valuable than the Skeleton Flying Dragons.

Unfortunately, although their morale had risen, facing the endless Skeleton Sea, the soldiers inside the city still couldn’t hold back. Lastly, the soldiers had to break through from the rear, preparing to leave the city that they couldn’t defend.
