Building the Strongest Undead Empire from Scratch - Chapter 395

Chapter 395: Undead empire would reveal itself to the world
The war was nearing its end, and Alex’s gains were substantial. She had acquired five new Emperor level troops, significantly bolstering the undead empire’s strength.

The undead empire now ranked third in power on the Eldoria continent.

The first and second positions belonged to the angels and humans, respectively.

The angels’ true strength remained unknown, but Hurricane City likely only had one Emperor level and one Sovereign level being, the vice president and the president. However, they had the backing of their headquarters, so Alex wasn’t getting complacent.

As for the south of the Eldoria continent, the only notable powers were the Skyreach Mountains and Eternal Night City, two local factions that the undead empire no longer considered a threat.

“Ice Cream, Ruby, Garethor, assist the others in sweeping the battlefield and unifying the entire north!”

With that, Alex turned and strode into the undead fortress, teleporting back to the undead Imperial Capital.

Absorbing a complete sphere wasn’t a quick process. She had to make the most of her time.

After this battle, the undead empire’s name would resound throughout the north of the Eldoria continent. They could no longer remain hidden. She had to become stronger, and fast.

Unifying the Eldoria continent was a daunting task, given the presence of the angels and humans. Therefore, Alex had set her sights on the weakest continent: Arsen.

She now had the confidence to face the Holy Court. The Arsen continent was the most likely candidate for unification by the undead empire.

However, one thing puzzled Alex. Was the continent’s core of will not tempting to these powerful races?

Why hadn’t the weakest continent, Arsen, been unified, or even targeted by other powerful races?

The situation on the Eldoria continent was understandable. The presence of the previous undead empire had attracted all the major factions, clearly vying for something.

But to prevent further conflict, they seemed to have tacitly agreed to maintain the status quo, with no race attempting to conquer the Eldoria continent’s core of will.

But what about the Arsen continent?

Apart from Eldoria and Arsen, all other continents had their respective rulers.

Valoria continent – Demon race;

Nytheria continent – Angel race;

Mossvale continent – Dragon race;

Tyrangar continent – Titan race;

Arcadia continent – Human race.

A chilling thought struck Alex. Could it be that each of these five powerful races had a puppet controlled by the World’s Heart?

What about the Sea Race?

Their strength rivaled that of any of the other races, yet they hadn’t claimed any continent’s core of will.

Could it be that the Sea Race was the only truly neutral faction?

Was that why all the other races seemed to despise them?

Regardless, Alex was determined to obtain the Arsen continent’s core of will. Not to absorb it, but to destroy it.

She also had to be wary of the energy Yi Chen had mentioned. It was likely a manifestation of the World’s Heart’s power through its subjugated races.

Upon returning to the undead empire, Alex immediately stripped off her clothes and teleported to the bathhouse.

“Ah, a nice hot bath. It’s been a while since I’ve been able to relax like this.”

Alex leaned back in the tub, her shoulders exposed, her arms resting on the edges.

White foam covered the water, concealing her breasts and other private parts.

The undead were still battling in the Beastman Empire, slaying countless enemies. As she felt her experience points rapidly increasing, Alex began to understand Thunder’s intentions.

He wanted her to use the system’s assistance to quickly reach Sovereign level. After that, further advancement might no longer be solely dependent on experience points.

In that case, the system would become less important.

“Although the Beastmen are numerous, it’s unlikely to grant me two level ups at once.”

Alex swished the water with her hand. “When will the Sea Race deliver another wave of experience points?”

…

After soaking in the bath for half an hour, Alex stood up, her bare feet padding across the floor as she walked out of the bathhouse.

She had made up her mind. This time, the undead empire would reveal itself to the world.

She no longer needed to hide. She could wear any beautiful dress she desired, no longer needing to disguise herself in local human attire.

Alex wore a sailor-style top, paired with a black pleated skirt, and thigh-high stockings, complemented by white canvas shoes.

From now on, everyone would know that the ruler of the undead empire was a lord from another world.

Alex had just finished bathing, her hair falling loosely over her shoulders. She decided to secure it with a hair clip. As she pulled out the clip, thoughts of the adorable Chi-Chi filled her mind.

“I must become stronger as quickly as possible,” she resolved. “Once I have the power, I will bring Chi-Chi back to life.”

It would take some time for the undead empire to completely conquer the north, and Alex’s current method to increase her power was to understand the Qi sphere.

The application of Qi was similar to telekinesis, but they were fundamentally different.

Meanwhile, at the heart of the Eldoria continent.

A blinding golden light erupted from the Holy City in the sky, and a six-winged angel soared out, heading north at breakneck speed.

He suddenly stopped, his path blocked by a human.

He frowned, recognizing the man before him.

“Wind, why do you stand in my way?”

“You cannot go north.”

Wind smiled faintly, his gaze fixed on the six-winged angel.

“The undead are the angels’ sworn enemies. Step aside!”

The six-winged angel’s voice was cold, unafraid of the man before him.

“I don’t care about your grudge against the undead. The agreement we signed clearly states that angels are forbidden from entering the north. We overlooked your previous transgression, but you will not violate the agreement again.”

Wind’s voice was firm as he released his powerful magic aura, a clear warning.

“I will report this. The humans are colluding with the undead!”

With that, the six-winged angel turned and flew away.

Wind withdrew his aura, muttering, “Go ahead and report it! I don’t give a damn!”
