Chapter 941: Chapter 941 Large-scale Southward Movement

"The Undead Mages are moving south on a large scale?" Zhao Guang heard this news in the laboratory and nodded.

"Then let them all head south. If they intend to move north, we’ll control it and not let them pass."

Xi Fei immediately noted it down, "I understand. I’ll notify Coscola and the others right away."

Zhao Guang had his own thoughts as well. If they went south, it would have nothing to do with him in the future, after all, he stood on a different side from the Undead Mages and didn’t necessarily have to do anything to them.

He just wanted to reclaim the Plague Swamp, which was his new territory.

Although the territory didn’t hold much significance for him now, since he could take it, Zhao Guang wouldn’t just leave it unattended.

Moreover, with a larger territory and more subordinates, he could always gain inspiration and rare items for research. These things were essential resources for his growth.

In the future, to continue expanding the territory, it would certainly head north.

If those Undead Mages all moved north, they would still be a threat once they developed.

On the contrary, if they all moved south, there would be plenty of people to contend against these Undead Mages, and it would have nothing to do with him.

Meanwhile, the Undead Mages also reached a conclusion after discussions. Although some wanted to go north, their numbers were very few. Only those who were timid or felt they couldn’t compete with others would do so.

After all, Undead Mages are different from other Mages; to develop, they need to deal with the dead.

While corpses from other races have some use, they’re clearly not as effective as human corpses.

Therefore, most Undead Mages and other Undead Professionals favored moving south for their own development. They found that the further north they went, the stronger the forces opposing them became.

After significant losses, some who initially wanted to head north turned southward.

A little over a month later, most of the Undead Mages were moving southward, while fewer were going north.

Avoiding Xuanwu Territory, Zhao Guang’s army wouldn’t pursue, as the path southward had already been paved by the preceding Undead Mages. They just needed to follow it.

However, due to the large scale this time, some issues gradually arose.

Beastmen couldn’t tolerate those Undead Mages, and upon seeing so many moving south, through their territory, they couldn’t sit still.

The Undead Army gradually began to confront the Beastmen, tensions rising between the two.

Small-scale skirmishes increased, with forces on both sides steadily growing.

The number of Beastmen grew, gradually alarming the royal court. Meanwhile, the Undead Mages kept exterminating some Beastmen, turning them into Undead Beings.

Some Undead Mages even advanced because of this.

To Undead Mages, Beastmen, as humanoid creatures, served similarly to humans as materials.

The higher the intelligence of the creatures, the greater the research value when turned into Undead. Creating more Undead easily led them to paths of advancement.

Under these circumstances, some Undead Mages eager to move south instead became less anxious.

Some Death Knights, in order to absorb more Death energy, engaged in large-scale slaughter. The more they killed, the faster they advanced, their progress this simple and brutal.

Seeing this continue, a major battle became inevitable.

"Didn’t expect we’d end up fighting here," Xi Fei sighed, seeing the report, helplessly increasing the border forces. Once conflict erupted, the Undead Mages wouldn’t just stand by and not enter Xuanwu Territory.

If they did, even if slightly delayed, it would cause immense losses.

Didn’t they see that formerly prosperous border towns had become quite desolate?

Many people, due to the large gathering of Undead Mages, quietly left the area.

After all, Undead Mages were synonymous with death, well-known for this. Mages could switch professions, but for ordinary people, it meant becoming Undead.

Many times, they didn’t even qualify to become cannon fodder Undead, dying under the plague instead.

Despite Xi Fei’s control, the price of Plague Potion kept rising.

Even with a large gathering of troops and the Demon Puppet Army, there was no way to stop people from worrying. The territory had legends, but even they couldn’t protect everyone.

Some people are simply reckless, especially among the Undead Professionals, where lunatics aren’t rare.

As Xi Fei adjusted troop deployments, the Beastmen also became alarmed.

While Xuanwu Territory developed, the Beastmen had sent people to build a city, with a stationed legion.

After Zhao Guang’s breakthrough news spread, the Beastmen’s army didn’t withdraw; instead, they remained there. After all, the Beastmen had legends, not lacking in power.

No one expected that this army wouldn’t clash with Zhao Guang first but with these Undead Professionals.

Though there was some distance initially, with more Undead Professionals gathering, conflicts grew, and the army finally began to mobilize, fortifying its position.

Meanwhile, the Beastmen sent a call for help to Xuanwu Territory, hoping to unite and destroy the Undead Mages completely.

Regarding this, Xi Fei could only tell them that she could only defend her territory and couldn’t freely move.

When the Undead Mages discovered this, they started to panic.

"We must move south quickly and not linger here. If we stay longer, we might not be able to leave." The southern Beastmen began to encircle them.

"We outnumber them; the Beastmen’s army can’t match us."

"Never mind the army; the Beastmen have many Legendary Strongmen. If it escalates, what do we do if they deploy their legends?" At this, everyone fell silent.

They didn’t have Legendary Strongmen backing them anymore. Who would have thought that two legends would disappear in such a short time?

It’s uncertain if they’re dead, but they certainly won’t reappear soon. Considering such power, those who wanted to linger also fell silent, their lives more important.

"But it’s not easy for us to move now, is it?"
