Chapter 391: Archalpha appears
This time, Alex wasn’t even planning on using the undead fortresses. Well, not entirely. She would only use one.
As the undead army swarmed into the main fortress, Alex vanished into thin air.
Far north, on the western border of the Arctic Tigerfolk kingdom.
An undead fortress stood here, untouched, a remnant from Xiao Hui’s previous retreat.
Alex had checked the main fortress. The runes of the fifty-odd undead fortresses within the Beastmen Empire had all been extinguished, indicating that the enemy had thoroughly purged their territory.
With the arrival of the undead army, the desolate icy plains were instantly teeming with life.
A Gnoll scout stationed within the Beastmen Empire’s territory, tasked with monitoring the undead fortress, noticed the commotion. He tried to report back, but it was too late.
He clutched his chest in agony, collapsing to his knees. With a final, agonizing wail, a massive bone spike erupted from his heart.
Torin lowered his staff, the surrounding magical energy subsiding.
Alex hovered in the air, surveying the surroundings before turning to her companions. “Xiao Hui, you’ll be in charge of commanding the army when the battle begins.” She then addressed the others. “Quickly eliminate the factions surrounding Five Colors City, then expand outward from the capital, conquering the entire Beastmen Empire.”
“Yes, Queen (Leader)!”
“Torin, Ruby, Garethor, Death Spirit, Ice Cream, follow me!”
Alex selected the five Emperor level beings of the undead empire, leaving the undead army to await further instructions. They swiftly flew towards the heart of the Beastmen Empire’s territory.
Five Colors City, the largest city within the Beastmen Empire, was also the Demihumans’ main city.
It was built in the style of a human city, surrounded by eight strongholds that formed a protective ring around the capital.
Five Colors City itself had no visible defenses, not even a single guard stationed outside its walls.
Such was the confidence of a faction with a Sovereign level being at its helm.
However, six uninvited guests had arrived at the city’s outskirts. The surrounding strongholds, oblivious to their presence, were rendered useless.
Alex retrieved a Fortress Essence Shard, infusing it with undead magic before hurling it from the sky.
The shard, radiating black energy, streaked through the air like a meteor, crashing down near Five Colors City.
A massive gray magic circle materialized, and a towering undead fortress rose from its center.
Having learned from the previous surprise attack, the Beastmen were now wary of these structures.
Screech! Roar! Moo!
A cacophony of animalistic cries echoed from the surrounding strongholds, frantically relaying the alarm to Five Colors City.
Alex and her companions ignored the panicked signals. As the undead fortress materialized, undead troops began to pour out. These beastmen lacked the strength to destroy the fortress.
Alex led her five companions into Five Colors City, where the five races’ troops were converging on the vast plaza.
There was no panic within the city. The troops surrounded Alex and her companions, quickly filling the plaza to capacity.
A path opened up amidst the crowd, and five figures, each with a distinct form, strode forward, their faces contorted with rage.
Alex instantly recognized their races: a birdman with white feathers and two wings on his back, a massive mammoth with two enormous tusks, a black-skinned Gnoll clad in golden armor, a lion-man with a flowing mane, and a man who closely resembled a human.
If not for the two small antennae on his head, Alex would have mistaken him for a human.

These five Beastmen were the five Emperor level alphas of their respective races. The Gnoll and the birdman were particularly enraged, while the other three looked down on them with disdain.
“We agreed to a ceasefire because we didn’t want to provoke the dragon race. But that doesn’t mean we’re afraid of undead!”
“You dare to come here yourselves? You’re courting death!”
The two Alphas roared at Alex and her companions. The Demihuman stepped forward, attempting to calm them down.
“Why waste words on them? They’re the ones who broke the peace. We can’t be blamed for this. We didn’t start this war. Even if the dragon race intervenes, we won’t back down!”
Shing!
A flash of silver, and the Emperor level Demihuman leaped back, the other four Alphas scattering as well. A gash appeared on his chest, his clothes torn.
Alex twirled her scythe, slamming the massive blade into the ground as she glared at them.
“You talk too much. Kill them!”
With Alex’s command, the three race kings, along with Ruby and Ice Cream, charged towards the enemy.
The surrounding Beastmen troops were mere decorations. Even the aftershocks of the battle could easily wipe them out.
“You’re asking for death!”
The five Alphas exchanged glances and lunged forward.
The mammoth and the lion-man transformed into their beast forms, but they were met by even larger creatures.
A dragon, and a powerful Azure Dragon at that!
Besides the Azure Dragon, there was also a white tiger, its size rivaling the lion-man’s.
Ruby and Ice Cream’s beast forms were their strongest, and the four colossal beasts clashed in the sky.
Skyplume, knowing Garethor’s strength, avoided a direct confrontation, instead targeting Death Spirit, the weakest among them.
The Gnoll faced Torin, while the strongest Demihuman battled Garethor.
The ground cracked, buildings crumbled, and countless Beastmen, caught in the crossfire of the Emperor level battle, perished. The scene descended into chaos.
Alex didn’t intervene, her attention focused on the Archalpha, who could strike at any moment.
“If you continue to hide, I’ll kill all your subordinates!”
Alex raised her scythe, the blade turning pitch black as it crackled with energy.
Just as she was about to unleash her attack, a blinding sword beam shot towards her.
Alex vanished in an instant. A deafening roar echoed as the ground beneath Five Colors City split open, massive fissures extending beyond the city walls.
The attack had cleaved the entire city into six sections!
The ten Emperor level beings instantly ceased their fighting.
The Beastmen were ecstatic. They had sensed the undead’s strength during their brief clash, but now that their Sovereign level Archalpha had intervened, victory was assured!
The five Emperor-level figures from the undead empire looked towards Alex with concern. Her gaze was firmly fixed on the source of the attack.
