Chapter 370 - 370 370 A Group of Undead Blocking the Way

370: Chapter 370: A Group of Undead Blocking the Way 370: Chapter 370: A Group of Undead Blocking the Way Coscola was ordered into action, and to increase his safety, Zhao Guang also gave him a machine gun.

Having seen the power of this weapon, even Coscola, who had reached the level of an intermediate warrior, was filled with dread.

If he were to be fired upon by a machine gun, he might not be able to withstand it.

If faced with concentrated fire, even an advanced warrior would likely fall on the spot.

At that moment, Coscola felt like a martial artist who had just discovered firearms.

After sending Coscola off, Zhao Guang continued to busy himself with the affairs of the territory.

The foundation was quickly excavated, followed by a thick layer of cement.

Although Zhao Guang had issued the task, no mages were coming.

It wasn’t that Zhao Guang’s offered reward was too low, but rather, the task was near Plague Swamp, and no mages were willing to come.

Zhao Guang had only recently learned that the relationship between mages of the Silver Tower and the undead mages of Plague Swamp wasn’t very good.

Many were worried that this was a trap set by the undead mages from Plague Swamp, so they were reluctant to come.

The more generous the reward, the less willing everyone was to take the risk.

Left with no choice, Zhao Guang had to purchase the Soil Solidification Technique spell and study it in his spare time.

Everything was proceeding in an orderly fashion, and the houses that were first to be constructed were gradually taking shape.

Before the first snowfall, all the slaves had already moved into the houses.

However, a second batch of slaves was soon to be sent over, so the construction of houses would have to continue.

The houses were not very exquisite, but they were very large, capable of housing two to three slave families each.

Zhao Guang directly instructed them to squeeze together inside for warmth during the winter.

To solve their heating problems, Zhao Guang directly implemented a combination of Eastern and Western methods.

The design of these houses included built-in fireplaces, which were also connected to heated kang, ensuring warmth and comfort.

As for the wood needed for heating during winter, it had also been stockpiled.

“Very good, I originally thought I would need to buy some coal.”

Unfortunately, coal had not been discovered in this area, otherwise, it could have been directly used.

Like the ancient times on Earth, this world had not developed the use of coal either, due to issues with poison and smoke.

Yet, with simple processing, coal can be safely used, which isn’t very difficult.

Moreover, with the use of stoves, coal would not pose any harm to humans.

If it had been found, he wouldn’t have to use all this wood as a substitute.

“Master, urgent military intelligence from Coscola,” Xi Fei suddenly rushed in, interrupting his thoughts.

Since the completion of various fire-related experiments a while ago, Xi Fei didn’t have to continue them.

However, through the continuous release of flames during that time, Xi Fei realized she had gained a considerable increase in strength.

Unfortunately, due to the constraints of her bloodline, it was extremely difficult for Xi Fei to make a breakthrough.

This was the biggest problem for magicians — without breaking the shackles of their bloodline, there was usually no further progress after reaching a certain level.

“Urgent military intelligence?

It couldn’t be that old man daring to make a move, could it?” Zhao Guang was somewhat surprised.

Upon inspection, Zhao Guang’s brows furrowed.

The trouble didn’t come from Marquis Coruas, but instead, it was related to the undead; there were undead on his own lands.

If it were just a few, it wouldn’t really be a problem.

In fact, undead could potentially appear anywhere.

As long as there is death of living beings and through some special transformation, undead could be formed.

But a large group of the Undead cannot be taken lightly—no one knew whether this was the work of an Undead Mage.

At this moment, while Marquis Coruas was busy expanding his territory, he stumbled upon a horde of Undead.

According to intelligence reports, their numbers had reached as many as three hundred.

And it wasn’t just one kind, but a mix of skeletons and zombies, two types of common Undead that would definitely turn on each other if encountered.

Yet they weren’t fighting, which only suggested one possibility.

Someone was controlling them, and most who could control the Undead were Undead Mages.

“It seems an Undead Mage has made their way to our side.

The question is whether someone has taken a fancy to our territory.”

In fact, Undead Mages had always wanted to take over this area, but the Chirali Empire was too powerful.

Every time Undead Mages mobilized on a large scale, they would suffer the Empire’s strikes and be forced to retreat back into the Plague Swamp.

The swamp was unsuitable for humans, so the Empire did not pursue them further into it.

Now, this group’s presence was for reasons unknown.

But since they were here, they had to be dealt with.

“Gather our forces; we set out together; these Undead must be eradicated.”

Now, eliminating the Undead had become the utmost priority, and all other matters had to be temporarily set aside.

Looking up at the sky, he saw the snow had stopped, and the sun was out—a clear, sunny day.

“What?

There are Undead in our territory?

Brothers, grab your weapons.”

When the Slave Soldiers heard there was a fight to be had, they were immediately excited.

Last time wasn’t it because of a military exploit that those two guys were able to become civilians and even received the method to practice Combat Energy for beginners?

Thanks to the resources tilted in favor of Coscola, those two were not far from cultivating their own Combat Energy.

It wasn’t because the two men had exceptional talents; it was purely because their physical fitness was decent due to years of labor.

To cultivate Combat Energy, one didn’t need too high a talent.

However, the quality of the Combat Energy and whether one could reach great heights in the future, that depended on talent.

But for these ordinary people, a Warrior with Combat Energy was worlds apart from their former selves.

“Good, morale is high.

Take two hundred men with you; we march.”

These men had been training non-stop during this period, and in terms of physical condition, they were not much inferior to regular soldiers.

If one spoke about weapons, it was an even less simple affair.

Where would regular soldiers get equipment of this quality?

Thanks to his wealth and resources, Zhao Guang’s force was certainly no weaker than the armies of the surrounding nobles.

However, for the sake of secrecy, they did not travel quickly, taking a circuitous route.

It wasn’t until the following day that the team finally arrived at the location of Coscola.

“Is this the place?

What are they up to?”

Zhao Guang climbed to a high point and peered through a telescope from a distance, indeed spotting a group of the Undead.

“I don’t dare get too close and don’t know what they’re doing, but it seems like they’re building something.”

“Building?

Since when do the Undead need to build anything?” Zhao Guang didn’t understand these creatures.

“There should be a graveyard over there.

Once they’ve finished building, they’ll probably be looking for a large number of corpses to fill it.” So that was it—truly a construction style befitting of the Undead.
