In just half a day, the Burning Flames Queen led her army to the foot of the Skeleton Lich Tower.

"You go in first!" The Burning Flames Queen dispatched a Corpse Burning Flame Spirit, letting it crawl into the tower that only had half of its structure left.

Up close, it appeared even more battered; it wasn’t simply missing the entire upper half but looked like it had been forcibly torn apart, leaving irregular gaps.

As its name suggests, it was constructed from twisted skeleton remains, designed in the shape of a typical mage’s spire.

From afar, it looked sharp and slender.

In reality, its ground area was as large as a hundred square meters, but it was merely too tall.

Don’t be fooled into thinking it’s fragile just because it’s built with skeletons.

In fact, its hardness was not much less than that of steel-reinforced concrete structures, and it was always shrouded in strong magic.

As with most defenses, the most formidable aspect of this defensive spell is outward-facing; internally, it’s relatively vulnerable.

If the explosion hadn’t occurred internally, the damage would definitely not be as severe as it is now.

The Burning Flames Queen had just witnessed the formidable power of the Corpse King’s sequential traps, naturally causing her to be cautious.

Although his sequential traps eventually backfired on him, that was because his enemy had superior strategy, not because his traps lacked power.

Who knows if the destruction of the Skeleton Lich Tower was his own orchestration, setting up another trap?

Thinking this might be overestimating him, but it’s not impossible that he faked death, deliberately lured them into the Skeleton Lich Tower, where he laid traps.

Like all mage towers, the Skeleton Lich Tower was full of dangers inside, filled with various mechanisms and magic traps, where a witch’s abilities would reach their peak.

Even severely damaged, it should never be underestimated.

Just by encountering an anti-magic area, trapping oneself in the Skeleton Lich Tower’s ruins, the advantage gained would be lost, and the opposition might even counterattack, obliterating the Burning Flame Army.

Boom! Boom! Boom!

Soon after the Corpse Burning Flame Spirit entered, a series of explosions roared from within.

The Burning Flames Queen was not surprised but pleased, thinking: "Am I overthinking it? Is Aldridge truly dead from the blast?"

All the noises from the Skeleton Lich Tower were the usual physical and magical traps activating, which posed little deadly threat even to the Burning Flames Queen, let alone an ordinary Corpse Burning Flame Spirit.

Whew!

In a sudden expansion, the human-shaped flame of the Burning Flames Queen turned into a massive fire cloud, covering the surrounding Burning Flame Army, with crimson flames penetrating the skeleton undead bodies with fiery-red bones.

"Mercy! Queen, mercy!" Those flame skeleton undead cried out sharply.

They were undead produced by the Bone Burning Territory, having some fire elements infused, granting them flame attack and flame resistance.

But this flame resistance was nothing before the soul infusion of the Burning Flames Queen; once her power inundated their bodies, it wouldn’t take long to burn their bodies and souls to ashes.

The only difference was they lasted a little longer, but this prolongation was not a blessing, rather a curse, only extending their suffering.

The Burning Flames Queen ignored their wails, adhered to her plan, partially infused her soul consciousness into their bodies, replacing them, then commanded them to rush madly into the Skeleton Lich Tower.

If the Corpse King had set traps within, all that would be lost was portions of her soul consciousness, posing no fatal threat to her.

The Soul-Infused Puppets controlled by the Burning Flames Queen soon caught up to the previously dispatched Corpse Burning Flame Spirit.

With their cooperation, advancing speeds noticeably increased.

The Corpse Burning Flame Spirit dismantled traps of purely physical damage nature, being a spiritual body, such traps generally wouldn’t trigger.

The Soul-Infused Puppets would tackle the magic traps, often using themselves as bait.

Even if destroyed, there was no regret.

These Soul-Infused Puppets were not inexhaustible, but they numbered in the thousands.

Lose one, then control another with soul infusion, a third to take place.

In such a manner of unrestrained expenditure, they advanced rapidly, soon penetrating the lowest level of the Skeleton Lich Tower—the largest soul pool in the Corpses Domain, where the Corpse King’s soul totem resided.

The successful breakthrough by the Soul-Infused Puppets of the Burning Flames Queen fully indicated one issue.

That being the Corpse King had indeed been caught off guard by the Shadow Flyer, now in the midst of rebirth.

Crunch!

Once more, the Soul-Infused Puppets controlled by the Burning Flames Queen turned into a pile of bones.

It was not burnt to ashes but rather violently destroyed.

In a fleeting glimpse, the Burning Flames Queen saw a large shadowy figure, and more emerged from the darkness, pouncing on the Corpse Burning Flame Spirit.

It was the final defensive mechanism left by the Corpse King in the soul pool, a trump card prepared by every High Tier Undead Lord in their soul pool.

The Burning Flames Queen no longer hesitated, directly transformed into a crimson flame, and charged aggressively.

As long as this is not a trap specifically targeting her, even facing the Corpse King head-on, she is unafraid, not to mention the final guardians.
