It took Zhang Mu more than ten days to transform from a mercenary captain into the most unscrupulous tomb robber in the history of Xihai Province. To be precise, he was a corpse robber.
First, we used our connections with the Bureau of Investigation to do enough archaeological work, looking for ancient battlefields and tombs. We tried every means, including buying and digging, to prepare a total of 89 corpses of powerful Heavenly Spirits, as many as five to six thousand corpses of peak and late Earth Spirits. Most of them are now buried in the Dawn and have not had time to perform the ceremony.
It is not difficult to foresee that once the undead army takes shape.
Zhang Mu is the uncrowned king of Zhonghai City!
Although the military headquarters has a powerful fleet, there are more than 80 undead souls who are not vegetarians. The destructive power of a strong Heavenly Spirit is not inferior to that of a large battleship. Some of the corpses are strong Heavenly Spirits who died recently and have the ability to become intelligent undead. More than eighty undead kings are comparable to the destructive power of eighty warships.
Heavenly spirits are far more flexible than warships, so their combat value is higher. However, most of the undead made from the corpses of five or six thousand earth spirits at their peak and later stages maintain their combat effectiveness around the early and middle stages. With this kind of strength, most of them can serve as mid-level officers in the regular army.
A group of five to six thousand Ming Earth Spirit-level powerhouses, and they are a group of undead that will not be afraid, will not be tired, and are absolutely loyal. It must have the ability to fight dozens of times ordinary armies, and its overall strength is comparable to hundreds of thousands of soldiers.
With such a terrifying army at hand, who else could he be afraid of
Pluto's coffin is indeed the sacred weapon of the clan.
Its value is stronger than the Dragon Snake Bow.
With the help of goblin researchers, Zhang Mu studied the research data on Pluto's Coffin in detail, thus gaining a more thorough understanding of Pluto's Coffin. The speed at which Pluto's coffin creates undead is largely determined by the energy supply and the strength of the altar host. If there is a large amount of materials and energy, and a strong enough altar host, Pluto's coffin can produce undead very quickly.
In addition, Pluto's Coffin's ability to control the undead is not endless.
The weapon spirit of Pluto's coffin is the Hades skeleton on the coffin lid. This was originally a Holy Spirit-level undead soul, but was made into a weapon spirit for unknown reasons. The ability of the holy weapon will directly affect the ability of the holy weapon. The Hades Skeleton is not infinitely powerful, and the number of undead it can control is limited. The stronger the undead, the smaller the number it can control.
If one day, Zhang Mu digs up a complete corpse of the Holy Spirit and uses Pluto's coffin to make it into an undead, then the spirit will lose the ability to control other undead. Because the weapon spirit must use all its strength to control an undead spirit with the strength of the Holy Spirit.
This is to be expected.
No matter how powerful the holy weapon is, it will eventually have a limit.
If Pluto's Coffin could produce endless undead, the undead tribe outside the territory would not have been wiped out by the expedition fleet of the Immortal Kingdom, and Pluto's Coffin would not have fallen into the hands of goblins. In fact, as long as the existence of the Holy Spirit level is not controlled, the number of heavenly and earthly spirits that Pluto's Coffin can control is a very huge number, because the heavenly and earthly spirits cannot go against the will of the Holy Spirit.
With just a hint of control, the undead will be completely controlled.
So just don't manipulate the Holy Spirit.
Pluto's Coffin is enough to control a sizable army.
The insect nest is the key to the underworld mercenaries.
In the process of creating undead, a huge amount of energy is consumed every day. Although the underworld mercenaries are not short of money, they can buy them in large quantities. However, buying too much energy material will attract others' attention. Any factor that may lead to the exposure of Pluto's coffin must not be allowed to appear.
The insect nest can create gathering insects, which can mine ore very quickly and can hide from the eyes and ears of others. Zhang Mu can even use gathering bugs to secretly prevent theft from other people's mineral veins. The bugs dig holes in the ground to collect the ore, and then transport it out secretly. The mining scale is not too large, and others cannot find out the clues.
There are several large-scale factories in Huangquan, and energy and material processing can be completely carried out by themselves, which solves Pluto's coffin's worries.
Zhang Mu's only worry now is.
Will the news about Pluto's coffin be leaked
Because the existence of Pluto's Coffin is not a secret in itself. Everyone who has participated in the Battle of the Despair Icefield has seen the undead army. In order to prevent the news from leaking, Zhang Mu could only conceal the news of the Shuguang's arrival in the Xihai Province. Only the most trusted group of mercenaries knew about it, and ordinary underworld mercenaries did not know the news.
Although paper cannot contain the fire, it can be hidden for a day!
…
The sky was blue and cloudless. Zhang Mu was sitting on a mountain peak, with a small canyon at his feet. The soil in the canyon was dug up, and under the leadership of two undead kings, three to two hundred undead soldiers lined up neatly and walked into the dug tunnel.
Ye Qianqiu stood beside him coolly, holding a blood-red spear.
Zhang Mu spent a lot of time collecting corpses, but he did not forget his own improvement. He often spent a lot of money to buy valuable elixirs and treasures to improve his cultivation. He just reached level 44 yesterday.
"It's almost done, let's fill in the soil!"
Zhang Mu finished his instructions.
Dozens of Huangquan mercenaries started to backfill the soil, burying hundreds of undead. Undead fire cannot burn endlessly, especially in battle, as the loss of undead power will be particularly serious. This loss can be replenished by absorbing the power of death attributes. The most direct way is to use Pluto's coffin to transform death energy. Of course, the undead have the ability to sleep, and basically consume no power in the dormant state.
It's easy to wake up from sleep, but because of this, you don't have to worry about the undead in the canyon being stolen or destroyed.
"The second batch!"
"very good!"
Zhang Mu watched with satisfaction as the small canyon was filled into flat land.
At this time, a small mecha rushed from a distance and stopped in front of it. The visor opened, revealing Du Rongrong's face: "Mumu, Lao Hei is back in the city!"
Du Rongrong is also a powerful person in the heavenly spirit. Although she has not mastered the corresponding summoning skills, she has learned a lot of offensive spells for a period of time and practiced magic skills with Leng Yun. Du Rongrong is a rare professional who has the ability to learn some elemental magic and is considered a half elemental master.
"I already know."
Zhang Mu returned to Zhonghai City.
The underworld mercenaries occupy a position in Zhonghai City. Because paper cannot keep fire, the news about a large number of humans advancing to heavenly spirits has been learned by the middle and high-level officials in the city. Although some people know that the human race has great potential, the growth rate of the human race is still far beyond expectations. Not only the Huangquan mercenaries, but also the Tiantian mercenaries, after Gabriel, there are three powerful people in the Heavenly Spirit Realm.
In fact, anyone with a little bit of brains can see it.
Zhonghai City's power structure is undergoing a major change. In this process, both the city lord's faction and the deputy city lord's faction will be severely impacted. At this time, Josebe and Lelio would begin to regret to some extent their indulging in human development, and even giving help to human beings to help them develop.
It's too late.
The minions of the human race are revealed. The number of powerful human race heavenly spirits in Zhonghai City determines that this racial strength cannot be forcibly killed. Besides, Zhang Mu had met the Wind-Chasing Saint and was named a special envoy of the General Investigation Bureau. With such an identity, it was not easy to get rid of him.
The two city lords must make mistakes. Since they support one group of humans, they must support it to the end. Otherwise, if the strength of another group of humans grows, this side will be finished.
Zhang Mu saw thunder.
"From the information I brought back from Xie, I already know the situation in Kuroshio City." Zhang Mu paused and continued: "Focus on checking the city lord. If there is a chance, I will contact him personally."
"The background of the Lord of Kuroshio City is very clean, and there is no problem with his origins. Is it possible that he is an undercover agent?"
"Having a clean background doesn't mean anything. As long as you give enough benefits, betrayal is not a strange thing. On the contrary, the cleaner the background and the more senior a person is, the easier and safer it is to steal alliance intelligence."
"Could this be a trap for us?"
"Not quite."
It is unlikely that the whole thing was premeditated. The reason is very simple. Zhang Mu discovered the problem at the auction, and participating in the auction itself was a very accidental thing. Zhang Mu happened to be out of customs, and happened to catch up with the opening of the auction that happens once or twice a month. Regarding the auction arrangements, Kuroshio City cannot interfere or decide.
If your title reaches the level of Marquis or above, you can enjoy a special privilege in the auction. Before the auction starts, you will get the list of auction items. The purchase of two items in Kuroshio City must have been planned in advance rather than done intentionally.
Basically rule out trapping.
"By the way, there's one more thing..."
"Are you referring to the mercenaries of the gods?" Zhang Mu shook his head directly, "Xie has said this. Let you take care of these things."
Lei Ming discovered that Xie had already informed Zhang Mu of the matter.
Regardless, Lei Ming knows.
Lei Ming still doesn't know.
No wonder Zhang Mu has great trust in Xie. Scorpion is like an omnipresent shadow and is one of Zhang Mu's most important weapons.
Lei Ming was very embarrassed: "Although the Lord of Kuroshio City has serious suspicions, the bidding channels for items at the auction are completely legal and there are no violations. We have a piece of baseless intelligence, which is not convincing. Several copies There is nothing wrong with the material itself, and there is no use at all. He can explain it any way he wants. If we investigate rashly, there will be no results. Instead, we will alert the snake and make the moon organization alert. "
"This task is quite complicated, and the implications are even more important. It involves the intricate relationship between the alliance, the indigenous people, and the Nagas. I'm afraid it won't be completed overnight, so there's no need to rush it." Zhang Mu is not in a hurry, "Now that I can find a thread, I It's a breakthrough. I sent people to investigate. In the town near Shanghai, a piece of material recently appeared, called Thunder God Wood. This is one of the materials on the list. I don't know if the Moon Organization has obtained the information, no matter what How about it, we have to get it first. If we succeed, it will be like seizing the opportunity. The more actions the organization takes every month, the more flaws there will be."
"Is there such a thing?"
"Long Hao serves as a minor official in the Investigation Bureau in Shanghai City. We can definitely seek help from Chinese mercenaries."
"Haha, that's the best!" Lei Ming thought of the Gods Mercenary Group again: "Other gods will come to visit the Huangquan mercenaries. These few people are quite capable, and now they are oppressed by official forces. If we can take the opportunity to win over them, , is not a bad thing. The mercenary forces of other gods are not weaker than the Chinese mercenaries, and they are also a strong support."
"Just handle this matter."
Zhang Mu was focused on investigating the Yue Organization and the visit of the mercenaries of the gods, but he seemed to show no interest. This makes Lei Ming a little puzzling. There are many masters of the mercenaries of the gods, but they don't take the initiative when they have the opportunity to win over. This is not like Zhang Mu's usual style.
