Upon its first appearance, the tide of the undead wiped out dozens of countries and occupied the entire northern region of the world.
Seeing the situation was dire, the southern nations actively united to deal with the tide of the dead.
It took the combined forces of dozens of southern countries to barely stop the undead from continuing their southward advance.
However, this halt was only temporary. With the endless stream of undead, the southern countries gradually began to be unable to resist.
Just when the defenses were about to fall, the entire network discovered this dimension, and the players descended from the sky.
With the help of many players, the southern nations finally managed to stabilize their defenses.
This situation persisted for years, with the undead being kept out of the defenses and the players unable to push back.
It wasn't that there weren't powerful players trying to use decapitation tactics, but the alien undead were unexpectedly powerful and quite cunning.
As a result, players tried several times without success, and many players lost their lives.
Chapter 217 One Wave Push
Of course, these players' numerous decapitation operations were not without results; at least they figured out the general strength of the alien undead and which powerful undead under its command were.
However, information about its undead leaders is not very accurate, as new undead leaders appear from time to time, leading players to suspect that it has mastered a method to summon undead from another world.
After getting a general idea of the situation, Huo glanced at the snow-covered city and prepared to leave to search for the undead to enrich his collection of books.
Just then, a deep horn sounded.
Upon hearing the bugle call, Huo instinctively looked in the direction from which the sound came, and saw a large group of soldiers standing up after hearing the bugle call.
Judging from the numerous scars on the soldiers' armor, these soldiers must be veterans.
At the same time, players emerged from their various rest rooms and began to gather on the city wall.
Is the undead attacking the city?
Huo could tell at a glance that this was a sign of an impending siege. Having been on so many battlefields, he was no stranger to this kind of situation.
However, this time it was just bad luck; we encountered an undead siege as soon as we entered.
However, based on previous data, this is quite normal, as outpost cities are attacked by undead almost every day.
These undead are producing offspring faster than rabbits, and their numbers never seem to decrease.
Seeing the actions of the soldiers and players, Huo glanced at them and followed them up to the city wall.
Looking north, I saw a huge swarm of densely packed, ice-blue skeletons rushing towards us.
The skeleton horde was also mixed with a large number of other undead, including skeleton dogs, ghouls, zombies, death knights... all kinds of undead were there, and there were even bone dragons flying in the sky, making it a complete undead encyclopedia.
The strongest of them should be the bone dragons that fly in the sky, followed by a considerable number of death knights.
It would be absolutely impossible to stop such a huge number of undead by relying solely on local soldiers, but fortunately there are also a considerable number of players.
Before the undead army could get close, the players standing on the city wall had already started to attack.
A large number of spells fell from the players' hands to the undead army.
Most of the spells are based on holy light and fire, because these undead are corrupted by the power of mutated undead, making them much stronger, but at the same time, it also exacerbates the weakness of fire.
As a result, these undead are not only countered by Holy Light, but fire can also cause them great damage.
After a round of spells, a large area of the ground was cleared, but this newly appeared clearing was quickly filled with the undead again.
At the same time, the bone dragon in the sky began to approach the city, and a group of players who had not yet made a move began to join forces to cast spells, preparing to deal with this strongest bone dragon.
Upon seeing this, Huo immediately spread his wings and took to the air, flying straight towards the bone dragon.
The players who had joined forces to cast the spell did not speak up to stop Huo Huan when he suddenly appeared, but instead tacitly extended the chanting time.
Whether Huo wins or Bone Dragon wins, these players who joined forces to cast the spell will be able to prepare accordingly.
If Huo wins, this combined spell will be cast on the undead on the ground.
If the Bone Dragon wins, then Huo's attack will also deplete some of the Bone Dragon's energy, giving them a greater chance of killing it.
Ignoring the opinions of other players, Huo, who had taken off from the city wall, flew straight toward the Bone Dragon.
After smashing several gargoyles in succession, Huo successfully approached the bone dragon.
Judging from the size of the skeletal dragon, it was clearly an adult dragon in life.
However, undead creatures are often the weakest among those of the same level, and even bone dragons are no exception.
Huo could easily kill even normal dragons, let alone bone dragons.
Moreover, the bone dragon has no dragon breath or scales; it is just a skeleton.
Therefore, not long after Huo approached the bone dragon, the bone dragon disintegrated in mid-air.
With the appearance of the Book of Collections, the bones of the Bone Dragon disappeared before they even hit the ground.
Upon seeing this situation, several mage players who were originally dealing with the bone dragon immediately and in unison turned their prepared spells on the undead legion on the ground.
As a red cloud appeared in the sky, countless fireballs the size of human heads fell from the sky and crashed into the undead army.
In an instant, thousands upon thousands of souls fell to the ground.
From the sky, Huo could clearly see that although the Meteor Shower had eliminated many undead, most of them were only low-level undead.
Most of the mid-to-high-level undead, such as Death Knights and Stitches, did not suffer any damage; only a few unlucky ones sustained minor injuries.
After smashing several approaching gargoyles, Huo prepared to land.
I came to the battlefield to collect items; relying solely on ordinary players and city-guarding soldiers is too slow.
Instead of taking a slow and methodical approach with them, it's better to launch a major offensive right away, since this is a world where individual power can sweep everything aside.
Folding its wings, Huo crashed to the ground like a shooting star, kicking up a large cloud of snowflakes.
The next instant, violent flames began to erupt from the point of impact, gradually transforming into a heatwave that swept across the entire battlefield.
The ice and snow on the ground began to evaporate, countless dead were devoured by flames, and a flower of fire bloomed on the battlefield.
The flower bloomed for several minutes before it began to wither. By the time it completely disappeared, the massive undead army had vanished, and even the earth had turned into a glassy landscape.
At the same time, Huo, who was standing still, let out a deep breath.
Using up all the energy in his body in one go still left Huo feeling somewhat uncomfortable.
After closing his eyes and sensing the rapidly recovering energy within his body, Huo casually summoned the Book of Collections.
Although the corpses of the dead have been burned, judging from the previous performance of the Book of Collections, it can accept corpses regardless of whether they exist or not, as long as they meet the requirements.
Subsequently, a large pile of ashes was peeled off the ground and collected into the book.
Huo Huan reached out and glanced at the book of collections. With this one wave alone, Huo Huan acquired nearly 5 items.
Although most of them are the lowest-level skeletons and zombies, there are also quite a few high-level undead among them, and more importantly, there are many of them.
One wave alone can reach nearly 5; if it can accommodate all the undead in this plane, who knows how many more could be reached.
Thinking of this, Huo decided not to return to the city. After taking Yi Cuisi and the other women back to the exhibition hall, he flapped his wings and prepared to head north.
As for the other players and soldiers in the city, Huo has no intention of making contact with them yet.
Given Huo Huan's current strength, other ordinary players can no longer offer him any assistance.
Only by getting close to a legendary player or a legendary player can Huo receive help.
Chapter 218 Lich
As we flew north, the surrounding environment became even harsher.
Snowflakes fell heavily from the sky, and a biting wind occasionally swept across Huo Huan's face.
The cold was secondary; with Huo Huan's current physique, a little cold wouldn't bother him.
The problem is that the visibility is obscured by the heavy snow, and you can't see anything clearly in places a little further away.
After flying for several tens of minutes, Huo could vaguely see a black dot in the swirling snow.
Without hesitation, Huo immediately descended and flew towards the black dot.
As he got closer, Huo Huan could see clearly that it was a city built of black rock, teeming with undead.
In the center of the city, there is a gray portal from which new undead emerge from time to time.
These things seemed normal right after they left the portal, but soon after, their bodies began to be infected by an icy blue energy, transforming them into the blue frost undead that Huo had seen before.
Is this why the undead keep coming?
Looking at the continuously operating portal, Huo also understood why there were so many undead. It seemed that the players were right after all; they had indeed mastered the method of summoning undead from another world.
Moreover, judging from the efficiency of the portal, it's probably connected to the undead plane.
Now that they had seen it, they couldn't just leave it alone. Huo planned to fly straight into the city and destroy the undead's teleportation array.
Huo Huan's sudden appearance immediately caused a commotion among the city's undead.
The vibrant presence of living beings stirred restlessness among the undead, though most of them lacked the ability to fly. Only a portion of the ghosts and gargoyles soared into the sky and flew toward Huo Huan.
Huo didn't even bother to attack these weak undead. He simply accelerated and flew through them, smashing anything that stood in his way to dust.
As he descended, Huo gradually came to see the layout of the undead within the city.
In addition to the newly spawned undead, dozens of undead knights riding skeletal warhorses and a necromancer wearing a robe and holding a bone staff were also surrounding the portal.
No, it's not a necromancer.
Sensing the active spiritual energy on the other side, it should be a lich.
Compared to a typical necromancer, a lich is undoubtedly much more troublesome.
The lich is not only proficient in all kinds of magic and possesses vast knowledge, but more importantly, he has a life box.
As long as the phylactery remains intact, the lich cannot be destroyed unless there is a power that targets causality or the ability to trace back to the source.
However, it's just a bit troublesome. With Huo Huan's current energy resistance, low-level spells will hardly have any effect on him, and even if other high-level spells hit him, they will hardly cause him much damage.
As Huo approached the portal, the undead knights who had been surrounding it immediately swarmed around him.
Before Huo could even land, the surrounding undead launched an attack.
Bone arrows, ice spikes, soul attacks, death entanglements... In an instant, a dense barrage of attacks rained down on Huo Huan, with even a Death Finger among them.
