Chapter 597: Chapter 463 Randomly Eliminate a Country for CG_2

Many things were just a change in form rather than substance, and as long as Lind came up with a plausible excuse and courted NPC alliances, the NPCs’ money would be fully returned, with the Undead’s share divided in a seven-to-three split.

Beastmaster was the first partner to cooperate.

If the promotion went well, further collaborations could continue, especially with some weaker deities, such as Lady of the Night, who didn’t even have the right to refuse. Lind could take a nine-to-one share of the profits, keeping nine for himself and giving one to the other party.

"Sure," nodded the Beastmaster, "their power is preserved in my heart through prayers, of course I remember."

"That’s good."

The Beastmaster was a communication tool that maintained long-distance contact with Beast Girl Soralis, which Lind had to take with him. So, when he started to prepare for action, the only ones by his side were White Wolf Knight William and the Beastmaster, sitting on his shoulder with arms crossed.

Tione headed westward with Ska, Nur, and a group of Mechanical Servants.

Heartbeat switch.

The Abyss Aura on Lind’s body suddenly intensified, filling the air with a viscous sensation. The Beastmaster, crouched on his shoulder, immediately jumped onto William’s head, scratching haphazardly as it urged William to quickly distance himself.

Although Lind couldn’t see his own body’s stats, he could see the rapid transformation of the equipment he wore.

Without shards of the Magic Ring, no matter how exquisite, gear always had durability limits and would be destroyed with extended use, so Lind had over a dozen sets of Magic Armor to meet different needs.

This set of Elemental Armor, upon contact with the Abyssal Curse, immediately corroded, twisted, and deformed. The precisely rotating gears developed their own minds, and the seamlessly fitting parts also twisted abruptly, covered with blood vessels, turning from absolutely mechanical punk of magic to flesh.

The style of the armor abruptly changed from the rugged mechanical to skin-tight like it was alive, extending spikes at various joints on Lind’s body.

But his strength didn’t spiral out of control; everything was within Lind’s grasp.

Lind lifted his hand and removed the viciously fanged helmet from his head, shaking his hair.

"My lord?" William looked on worriedly.

"Don’t worry."

The stronger the Curse, the more powerful he became. Moreover, the Serpent Ring Emblem was still steadily consuming the Curse. Completely unleashed, Lind’s strength might have genuinely reached a fifth-tier level in all aspects.

The only concern was that prolonged exposure to the Abyssal Erosion could contaminate his soul.

Thinking this, Lind suddenly produced a blue Soul Blade in his hand and stabbed himself in the heart.

"Huuh~" He exhaled deeply.

So long as he periodically cut himself, severing the connection like cutting off bloodsucking worms, the Abyssal Erosion would be blocked. During this interval, the Serpent Ring Emblem could gorge itself, purging the intrusive Curse.

Theoretically, he could keep himself "healthy" like this indefinitely, unless the Abyss decided to sacrifice itself for another, pouring more of its Curse into his body to break the balance. By then, Lind might have become the new Abyss.

Leaving the area, they no longer required the Subterranean Tunnel Worm.

With the power of the Abyss, opening a Great Rift for invasion was not a difficult task.

The scene before them changed and they found themselves in a completely new area.

A green forest sea occupied their vision, with vegetation entirely different from the Shilu Continent. Here, the taller yet winding trees stood, which was strange because on the Shilu Continent, taller trees always had straight trunks.

Here, the larger the tree, the more twisted its trunk became, as if wishing to grow erratically like a coiling serpent, sprouting branches in aggressive fashion.

The General from the Abyss, perhaps called the "Black Knight Monarch," was about to initiate a new round of Abyssal War.

"Just the two of us?" William couldn’t help but ask.

Was there a slight mistake? When the Abyssal Great Rift invaded before, throngs of Abyssal Calamities emerged continuously. How come when it was his turn, he was left as a mere commander with no troops?

"It’s three!" The Beastmaster tugged on William’s ear, the great leader absolutely refused to be overlooked.

Lind looked around and said, "What, do you expect me to create Abyssal Calamities?"

Merely by spreading his own Abyssal Power, a large number of low-level Abyssal Calamity units would be infected and hatched, fighting for him, and even with the sacrifice of some Curse, he could raise powerful high-tier troops.

This was similar to the case where the Beastmaster separated part of its Resonance Power to create "Kitties." What could be split could also be reclaimed, although Lin didn’t gain much when splitting, feasting the Abyss when pulling back.

He had never forgotten that taking advantage of the situation to wipe out the Abyss was his true goal.

No matter how bustling it was outside, he couldn’t miss the chance to hamstring the Abyss.

"Just the two of us can on this land..."

"Three!"

Boom boom boom.

A shaking Shadow enveloped White Wolf Knight William and the cat going crazy on top of his head.

A dog and a cat stopped, instinctively turned their heads, their gaze slowly trailing the rising shadow up, up as if to look at the clouds.

A giant tree over twenty meters tall slowly stood up, transforming into a Treant that blotted out the sky with a canopy over thirty or forty meters high.

Boom boom boom, more and more Treants stood up. The entire forest that they had seen before had turned entirely into a Treant Legion. At first glance, there appeared to be no fewer than ten thousand!

William immediately drew his sword, his wrist turning lightly, and flames wrapped around the blade in an instant.

Even the Beastmaster huddled honestly in William’s embrace for cover, It didn’t want to hide in Lind’s embrace since that guy reeked of the Abyss.

"Treants? They don’t seem to be life forms." Lind still had the mind to observe, "But they seem to have autonomy, a bit more advanced than colossi."

In Magic World, whether a being was alive was not determined by whether the heart was beating but by "self-awareness," that is, if they felt they were alive, then they were alive.

Thus, Lind couldn’t determine what these trees were. Alive? Dead? Or merely biological weapons?

But the Treant Legion had already begun their assault.

Although Lind was not a Wizard, in terms of group combat, his battle range and lethality were no less than that of a Wizard.

"Bard Crest," its ability was diffusion.

The assault would not only hit the enemies being chopped but also spread to those behind them.

"Attack." Lind said.

No matter what Kingdom this was, starting an attack and initiating a new round of war with the Abyss came first.

Wars were inherently without right or wrong, and besides, being the "officially" designated Newbie Village, they were inherently opposed to Lind. Chopping them down was the right thing to do!

...

Enstad Continent,

Kingdom of Trees.

The Druid Queen was enjoying her wonderful afternoon; perhaps the end of the world wasn’t as bad as imagined. Despite a period of difficulty where she could barely hold on, the emergence of the Undead gave her a breather.

With the help of the Undead, cultivating over ten thousand Treants gave the Druid Queen enough confidence to face the upcoming enemies, be it the Abyss or hostile countries.

Boom boom boom, the ground suddenly began to shake.

The Druid Queen’s table also trembled, ripples forming in her cup.

Boom boom boom! The sound grew louder.

Then suddenly, a whooshing sound of wind came through. She turned her head and saw a figure in a cloak appear in the sky, wearing twisted and fierce armor, swinging a Longsword that split several Treants in half!

...

Shilu Continent, Black Marsh Kingdom.

Once the temporary staging area at the front line of the Abyssal Great Rift, it had long been devoid of Land Soldiers clad in Secret Rune Armor. The prosperous trading scene once seen here was gone.

The occasionally open "Abyssal Lottery Pool" and "Recycler Merchant" spots had also become deserted.

Tens of thousands of Undead, online.
