Chapter 662: Chapter 498: Spending My Money on Lind?
At the break of dawn, the Undead-led Newbie Village finally welcomed another batch of new customers.
They were wearing equipment from various countries and cultures.
Some were clad in black crow feather cloaks, emanating an aura of darkness, others wore hunting-style short shirts made from beasts’ skins and teeth, and yet some even fashioned huge helmets from the heads of demon beasts.
"How many undead are there now?"
Magdalena, thinking of herself as the leader of the Undead-led Newbie Village.
She was rallying the undead and assigning them tasks.
During her previous interactions with 3000 undead, she had already become aware of the undead’s working style, as stupid yet clear, they almost don’t keep any secrets.
Even NPCs native who are skilled at leading conversations with words have learned about Earth from the undead, who consider it a game Easter egg, answering without any concealment, and even voluntarily elaborating upon simple questions.
The reason is for fun.
Her subordinate knight answered, "36,000, and the number is increasing."
A large number of undead were being transported and transferred, Magdalena could already feel the enormous potential behind the undead.
Magdalena said excitedly, "If we have millions of undead, we might have a chance to re-attack Misty Rain City."
The knight responded, "Your Highness, their strongest is only second-rank, even first-rank, most don’t even reach the level of first-rank."
Even if there truly were a million undead, they wouldn’t be able to take part in the battle for Misty Rain City, they don’t even qualify to set foot on the battlefield.
Magdalena of course understood what he meant.
The vast gulf in strength makes the weak like dust, no matter how hard they struggle, it’s just like brushing off clothes.
Even though many undead have already chosen to enhance themselves with the power of the Mechanical God Cult, mechanical transformation also depends on the talent of mental power, otherwise consciousness will only be controlled by machines, leading to collapse.
"This is the only power we can get right now."
If she had a choice, she of course would want more powerful forces, but she didn’t have an option.
Returning to Misty Rain City is the goal she is willing to dedicate her life to.
"What about Lind Armand, has he not returned yet? Has Soralis Ancient Echo said anything?"
The current round-faced princess only worries that Lind might return to take control over the undead.
The knight shook his head, his voice muffled by his fully enclosed helmet, "No, but the Great Beast High Priest’s blessing ceremony is ongoing every day."
The Great Beast High Priest’s blessing was just a small trick Lind had crafted before the undead left last time, allowing the undead to have a cat with hardly any combat power.
The traits are, its different forms, wearing different clothes, and can help in combat but its real strength is not even first-rank.
Rated as: negligible.
The round-faced princess thought for a moment and said: "We need to emulate Lind and issue tasks externally."
Undead like mercenaries, zealously pursue tasks, she can also issue some tasks, then provide some rewards.
The ultimate ownership of this city is destined to be in her hands.
She bears no ill will towards Lind, but to achieve the goal in her heart, she must command a powerful army.
It all starts with an invitation letter.
Her actions are very fast, and since she has been getting along well with the few mages at the Mage Tower recently, producing a large quantity of textual correspondence is not difficult.
Even magical effects would be included, knowing that the undead like those.
[Magdalena’s Invitation: Undead from other material planes, welcome to the Undead-led Newbie Village...]
A lengthy self-introduction, including Magdalena’s identity, nearby power situations, a map, and the situation of Misty Rain City, among other things.
It’s fair to say that the information provided with this invitation alone saves the undead a lot of exploratory time.
In this aspect, she has indeed garnered quite a bit of favor from the undead.
Unfortunately, this version is named [Black Knight’s Turmoil], and just so happens that the Undead-led Newbie Village was also an initiative advocated by the ’Black Knight’ Lind Armand.
Even if she did everything better than Lind, Magdalena could never surpass Lind, at least not possible in the current version.
If she had done this before Lind gained the "official website" exposure, she could have easily dislodged him to become the main NPC of Version 2.0.
Unfortunately, information disparity can never be evened out.
A large number of undead poured into the Undead-led Newbie Village, few people perhaps cared about the unfinished tasks on the old maps, but the vast majority of the undead surely look forward to the new world.
The city built especially for the undead stands in the desert, undead responding to Black Knight’s call are now eagerly observing everything around.
"Yo, there’s even a map!"
Upon entering this vast city, one sees the map immediately and at every intersection, much like in an amusement park.
There are also direction signs and more.
In terms of gaming experience, Lind has raised it to the highest.
He knew too well the state of players when they play games; most people do not memorize routes, similar to many games today that provide mini-maps with markers, ignoring whether there’s a road ahead, naively remembering that the straight line between two points is the shortest, and rushing straight over hills and mountains.
