Chapter 1369 I really didn’t expect it
The speculations in the minds of various forces made the atmosphere of the entire banquet subtly subtle.
Zhou Xu, on the other hand, remained calm.
For Copperforge, it is now a time of war. The army that massacred the clan just withdrew some time ago. It is still unclear what will happen next.
Even if King Otto was really dead, they would not announce his death in a short time.
After all, once this news gets out, not to mention the external forces, they will definitely fall into chaos internally, and their morale will also be hit.
At a banquet, everyone had their own thoughts and no one was enjoying the drinking.
After dealing with a few rounds casually, Zhou Xu said hello to Bale and went back to the camp to rest.
When Saint Laurent I saw Zhou Xu leave, he did not stay long. After all, compared with Zhou Xu, he was still injured, and he was the one who really needed to rest early.
After returning to the camp, Zhou Xu began to meditate directly, and Gargamel also came to the corpses brought by the large army to absorb the energy of the undead.
In terms of time, unless they are wizard units, the souls of ordinary soldiers would have dissipated by this point in time. In other words, the only value of these corpses now is to provide energy for Gargamel.
During this period, even the two undead who were at the Vajra Realm in their lifetime had to stand aside.
At this stage, the energy of the undead is relatively limited. If they absorb it all, they may not be able to return to the King Kong Realm smoothly. But if Gargamel absorbs it all, he will definitely be able to convert more undead later.
This account is still easy to calculate.
There are quite a few corpses here, but they can't withstand Gargamel's fierce sucking. As the soul fire in Gargamel's body burns more and more vigorously, the undead energy in these corpses is soon sucked away.
During this process, Gargamel, a wizard who had entered the holy realm, keenly sensed the existence of a larger energy point in the nearby area.
These energies made him eager to take action, but considering the possible risks, he went to ask Zhou Xu for instructions first.
After listening to Gargamel's description, Zhou Xu raised his eyebrows slightly, and he had a rough idea in his mind.
[This should be referring to the corpses in the Saint Laurent Empire camp. ]
Among the current coalition forces, corpses are not of much value to the female warrior tribe and the Smith Republic. They often sell them directly to the Great Zhou or the Saint Laurent Empire on the spot, saving the trouble of collecting them.
They were mainly sold to the Saint Roland Empire, because before that, their Great Zhou did not need so many corpses, but the Saint Roland Empire had Balem, a skeleton wizard who had entered the saint realm.
Whenever there was a major war, every time Balem took action, a large number of corpses would be lost. This also forced the Saint Laurent Empire to constantly obtain corpses during periods of intensive warfare in order to make up for Balem's losses.
Under this premise, the Saint Laurent Empire itself was still the main force of the coalition forces, with the largest army, killing the most enemies, and naturally seizing the most corpses.
The few corpses they seized in the Great Zhou Dynasty were nothing compared to those seized from the Saint Laurent Empire.
Now that Gargamel mentioned this, Zhou Xu was immediately excited.
"Can you absorb the undead energy directly from here?"
"Can."
"Okay, go suck it!"
Zhou Xu didn't worry about whether he would be discovered by Balem.
In fact, it is highly unlikely to be discovered.
The reason why they can sense natural energy is that natural energy is like delicious food to them.
It's like when you walk to the side of the road and suddenly smell the aroma of food.
But the energy of the undead is different. The energy of the undead has little presence among these living beings. If you have to say it, the smell it emits is the stench of rotting food.
Living things will instinctively reject and ignore this energy that is completely opposite to themselves.
Even Zhou Xu, who has reached the out-of-body state, is like this, not to mention Balem, who has entered the saintly state.
At this moment, with Zhou Xu's permission, Gargamel had no more scruples and began to absorb the undead energy in the Saint Laurent camp from a distance.
After absorbing all the undead energy in their Great Zhou camp, Gargamel's magic power had already recovered to more than 80%. Now he began to absorb the undead energy in Saint Laurent's camp, and the remaining 20% of his magic power was quickly replenished.
The dark blue soul fire wrapped around his skull and burned fiercely, but Gargamel had no intention of stopping and he continued to absorb.
From the time he died in battle outside the Saint Laurent Fortress to the time he was transformed into an undead by Zhou Xu, almost a month had passed.
How could Gargamel's soul power not be damaged during this process? After being damaged for nearly a month, he was transformed into an undead, but the strength of his soul power still allowed him to maintain the strength of a silver star in the holy realm. His strength before death would only be stronger than this! This is indeed the case. With the continuous influx of undead energy, the dark blue soul fire in Gargamel's body began to surge.
This is like a process of self-purification. With each surge, the color of the soul fire becomes deeper and deeper.
Finally, accompanied by a violent expansion of the soul fire, Zhou Xu looked at his panel and found that his original silver one star had been upgraded to silver two stars!
This situation made Zhou Xu breathe a sigh of relief. He had originally thought that if the undead energy from Saint Laurent was not enough, he would inject some manually.
Compared to the Bloody Hand who has not yet transformed, at this stage, Gargamel is the cornerstone of his undead army!
However, what he didn't expect was that the inventory of the Saint Laurent Empire was more sufficient than he expected.
I guess in addition to the previous spoils, he also brought a large number of skeletons. Now, they are all given to Gargamel.
After successfully breaking through to Silver Two Stars, Gargamel, whose upper limit was raised a lot, continued to suck hard, completely draining the undead energy over there before stopping.
"How much difference is there between your current strength and your strength in life?"
It is difficult to understand how many stars a silver rank has without looking at the attribute panel. Zhou Xu's question now makes it easier to understand.
At this moment, facing Zhou Xu's question, Gargamel pondered for a moment and then said...
"Compared to when I was alive, I feel like I have become stronger."
“…”
Wow, this is something Zhou Xu really didn’t expect.
In fact, even Gargamel himself did not expect that after being transformed into an undead, the small bottleneck that hindered him in life disappeared instantly, and he broke through it easily.
For a moment, Gargamel himself was filled with joy, and even the form of the soul fire became excited.
Update is here, everyone, happy Chinese New Year~ (End of this chapter)
