Farming in a Parallel World and Becoming a God
Chapter 2291 - 1030: Digging One’s Own Grave
As long as his territory shows a slight weakness, it’s estimated that the enemies around will swarm over, devouring him first before doing anything else.
Including the Burning Flames Queen, who is attacking the Corpse King with enthusiasm.
The opponent’s shift is not solely based on hatred for the Corpse King, but also because of the powerful military force he displayed; continuing to confront him offers little benefit, it’s better to seize the opportunity for revenge.
To go further,
Gaven must cautiously balance the use of soul energy, especially in extraction.
Only by ensuring the long-term stability of this territory can he have an inexhaustible supply of Soul Purification Essence.
The Plains of Bone indeed only has one spot, but the Endless Abyssal is infinite, offering him endless places to conquer and plunder.
After this ambush, Gaven had no choice but to make a new round of adjustments to the reconnaissance and rescue mechanisms of the Shadow Flyers.
All Shadow Flyers will no longer act alone but will adopt a triple system, all taking random routes.
When encountering enemies, they will neither launch any attacks nor easily provide reinforcements.
Even if it means self-destruction, they will not give the enemy a chance to capture them, nor will they actively engage in ground warfare.
The main strategy is to leave no chance for the enemy.
This significantly advanced and impacted the battle on the Plains of Bone, far beyond Gaven’s expectations.
The Corpse King dragged the Shadow Flyer back to the Lich Tower first, then a cataclysmic explosion erupted inside immediately after.
Gaven’s estimation of the Shadow Flyer’s self-detonation being equivalent to two Skeleton Bombs combined was too conservative.
The Shadow Flyer is equipped with not only two Skeleton Ejectors but also two Skeleton Throwers on its belly.
Once in self-destruct mode, it naturally utilizes all available strength to the maximum extent.
Releasing four times the power together is absolutely more than a simple additive sum, it’s a geometric increase in power.
The entire Shadow Flyer became a super massive bomb.
The roar from its explosion could be clearly felt even from a dozen kilometers away.
The top half of the Skeleton Lich Tower disappeared instantly, blown into the sky, with skeleton fragments flying everywhere. It was impossible to tell which were from the Shadow Flyer and which were from the Skeleton Lich Tower itself.
The Burning Flames Queen, who teleported back with the ambush scene from the battlefield, could not help but burst into laughter when seeing this situation: "Aldridge calculated for half a day, only to calculate it onto his own head, haha... collecting things casually in his own house, he’ll get his retribution, haha... attack, full assault, today I will take over the Lich Tower!"
There was no need to guess, the problem surely stemmed from the Shadow Flyer forcefully teleported back by the Corpse King.
The question is whether it was an accidental coincidence?
Or was it all within that Defiler’s calculations?
If it’s the latter, then he is really terrifying.
Of course, the Burning Flames Queen wouldn’t miss such an excellent opportunity, immediately leading her Burning Flame Army in a full-scale attack, and personally leading the Imperial Guards Blazing Flame Spirits, charging at the half-remaining Skeleton Lich Tower.
They are unmistakably destroyers, wherever they go, they bring terrifying flames, leaving only a trail of ashy bones behind them.
Fortunately, they were facing a group of mindless undead; if it had been a regular army, they would have collapsed long ago.
"Could Aldridge himself also have been blown up?"
The Burning Flames Queen at the forefront couldn’t help but speculate.
Although the Corpses Domain army was resisting desperately, it was noticeable they were like a scattered heap of sand.
Especially the high-level combat forces in the Corpses Domain, though some attempted to intercept them, they were too scattered.
Just like giving food, there was no need for the Burning Flames Queen to strike personally, as the Blazing Flame Spirit Guards would divide and devour them.
This situation could only mean one thing: the Lord of the Corpses Domain, the Corpse King, had suffered heavy damage, leaving them leaderless.
The more the Burning Flames Queen thought, the more she believed this could be true; the Corpse King was touching the Shadow Flyer when initiating the forced teleportation.
This means he was at the very center of the explosion; even the Skeleton Lich Tower was instantly torn apart, let alone him as a Witch.
Witches are renowned for rebirth through the Life Casket and their powerful spellcasting ability, not for the strength of their bodies.
From the ability of the Life Casket, it’s easy to see that Witches do not value their physical bodies, in their eyes, it’s just a shell that can be discarded and replaced at will.
The Life Casket is the true key. As long as it exists, they can reoccupy a new body.
This time is probably no exception, only the Corpse King’s body was destroyed.
However, whether it’s the Life Casket or being reborn in the Soul Pool, it requires time, at least more than a day and a night.
The rebirth time is related to the Life Dice, generally following the rule of one Life Dice per hour.
The Corpse King’s Life Dice starts at thirty.
Thirty hours can be both long and short.
At this crucial moment of confrontation between two armies, it is absolutely fatal.
Without the coordination of the Corpse King, his subordinate low-level undead lords fight on their own, unable to withstand the frenzied onslaught of the Burning Flames Queen.
At her level, ordinary soldiers have no way to stop them.
They are balance destroyers on the battlefield, wherever they go, they bring destruction, completely disrupting the balance. The army following them will rush in to unleash a horrific slaughter, expanding their victories.
