Roland Empire, border city of Bly.

The battlefield was filled with smoke and the smell of blood, and the corpses of human soldiers and monsters lay on the battlefield.

The war started by the seventh demon general, the Headless Knight, had been going on for more than ten hours. Finally, after reinforcements from the city of Bly arrived, the Headless Knight led his troops to retreat.

A ghoul dragged its tired body and retreated along with the monster army.

It was dragging the body of a human soldier in its hands.

The monsters nearby intentionally kept a distance from the zombie, for fear that it would bite them.

If Anno were here, he would definitely find out that this ghoul is the one that appeared in Warrengel before and possessed the talent of [Ghoul].

Ever since the high-level cursed land took shape and the Undead Army took the initiative to attack, intelligent monsters such as ghouls have all evacuated the battlefield of Warrengel.

If they stay, they will be transformed into undead.

In order to improve its strength, the ghoul traveled thousands of miles and rushed over when it learned that the Headless Knight was confronting the human army at the border of the Roland Empire.

Today is the second battle it has participated in since arriving here.

But this battle, which lasted for more than ten hours, was too much for the zombies.

During this period, he almost died on the battlefield several times.

However, it eventually survived and reached level 28.

After returning to the camp, the ghouls suddenly discovered that a group of monsters suddenly began to discuss the war in Warrengel.

The general content is that after the Undead Army occupied half of the city, it temporarily ceased fire with the Kingdom of Nergal.

The monsters don't know the specific reason.

But they didn't care about this, but were discussing a human named Green who was wanted by the Demon King's army.

"He actually issued a kill order for all monsters. Is this human so powerful?"

The ghoul was curious and began to inquire about the human.

"Being able to summon the killed undead again to fight for you? This familiar combat method...could it be that abominable guy?" The ghoul instantly remembered his previous battle experience with Anno.

"Good fellow, so your name is Green. Just wait for me. Sooner or later, I will come back to find you. I hope you will still be alive by then!"

Swish!

After tearing off a part of the corpse in his hand, the ghoul began to devour the flesh to heal his injuries.

"Hey, that ghoul over there, come here for a moment."

The ghoul with blood in his mouth heard the shouting, looked up and saw a monster in heavy armor calling him.

Judging from his attire, he is the Dullahan's personal guard, and his strength is at level six.

The ghoul quickly wiped the blood from the corner of his mouth and said respectfully, "Sir, what...what's the matter?"

"You performed well on the battlefield. Lord Malthus wants to see you. Follow me!"

The seventh demon general, the headless knight, Edmund Malthus.

Hearing that this person wanted to see him, the ghoul immediately became excited and hurriedly followed.

…

The royal city of Thordar!

King Charles listened to the intelligence officer's report on the latest battle situation of the Alliance, and sighed, "Since escaping the siege, the Man-Slayer has been hiding in the territory of the Principality of Orebor, and his whereabouts are unknown.

On the Roland Empire side, the First Demon General brought hundreds of thousands of monster legions to support the Dullahan. The war has lasted for nearly half a month and there is no sign of ending yet.

Of the three human nations, we were the first to get into trouble and have already stopped the war."

"Your Majesty, we shouldn't be too optimistic."

The intelligence officer sorted out the recent news about the border and handed it to Charles XI, then said: "According to the intelligence, although Warrengel's undead army has not made any moves for the time being, there are signs that the number of monsters near Carnarvon City and Keer Ridge has gradually increased. It is very likely that they will face a new round of offensives."

Caernarfon City and Køge Ridge, together with Warrengel, are the three frontier cities in the northern border of the kingdom.

"Have the reinforcements from the North arrived yet?" King Charles asked, rubbing his head after reading the information.

"The reinforcements had already arrived in the two cities two days ago, but Caernarvon and Keerling had previously sent most of their troops to reinforce Warrengel. According to Warrengel's experience, each fortress only had 30,000 reinforcements, which was only 50,000. This was far from enough."

"Then send the third and fourth armies of the royal city, totaling 100,000 men, to guard the border."

King Charles looked at Lemmens beside him and said, "The enemy is the Undead Army. The North must not be lost. Lemmens, go to the military camp in the royal city and distribute my orders."

Lemens originally wanted to persuade the king that the troops guarding the royal city should not be sent out, as they were used to protect the safety of the royal family.

But seeing the king's expression, Lemmens finally nodded and said, "Yes, sir!"

After all the officials in the kingdom left the parliament hall, King Charles said to Lemmens in a tired tone: "Lemmens, if the Undead Army sends troops to the border again, do you think you can hold it?"

"able!"

Recalling Anno's figure, Lemens affirmed, "Your Majesty, it will definitely work. The new generation of the kingdom is very strong. Not only Sylvia, Okachi, Salom and others, but also the president and several vice presidents of the Adventurer's Guild are very strong. After they have experienced the baptism of war several times and grown up, they will be the backbone of the kingdom."

"I didn't expect those people to be evaluated like this by you."

King Charles suddenly remembered that Tester had a good relationship with the Adventurer's Guild, and couldn't help but smile, "I hope Tester's supporters can lend him a helping hand in the future."

During this period, several countries were at war.

Many non-human adventurers returned to their countries through various channels to help resist the Demon King's army.

Some adventurers also accepted the commission and followed them to the Elf Forest, the Orc Federation, and the Dwarf Kingdom - not only did the Elf King ask the embassy to issue the commission to the Adventurer's Guild, the Dwarf King and the Beast King did the same.

Because the journey is long and extremely dangerous, the reward for the mission is several times higher than the previous reward!

After Khalifa registered the mercenary group as the Lion Adventure Group, he accepted the mission from the Beast King and returned to his country, and also brought along Berkeley's Steel Cavalry Adventure Group.

Three days have passed since Annuo entered the manor to practice.

In order to speed up the practice of [Fusion], Annuo only rested for a short while every day, and the practice time was nearly eighteen hours.

Finally, after practicing for a total of fifty hours, Annuo finally completely integrated the lich's soul.

At the moment of fusion, the lich sitting in front of Annuo disappeared instantly, and Annuo's body suddenly changed.

His flesh was shriveled, his skin was a bit grey, and he still had the cloak that the lich always wore on his head.

An Nuo stretched out his hands, looked at the changes in his body, and murmured to himself: "I became a lich?"
