The Lord's Empire (Part 1)

Chapter 446-450

Chapter 446 - Spirit Flame

The governmental factions ordered all of their forces in the northern side to start defending against the Undead Disaster. The governmental factions were the most powerful factions in China, and even though their forces in each region weren't very strong, they were located in almost every region.

With how many regions there were within China's territory in the Heaven Awaken World, it was a monstrous force when added together. Moreover, within each of the regions, the governmental factions were at least middle-class factions.

With more factions joining the resistance against Great Qin, everyone felt much more at ease and confident. They didn't believe that they wouldn't be able to stand up against Great Qin with so many people.

Su Yan couldn't help but smile - this was what he wanted to see. With so many factions joining, it would be easy for his plan to succeed. Great Qin's Undead Disaster would no longer sweep through with no obstructions, and it wouldn't be able to rampage as it wished.

He was going to stop the Undead Disaster!

In order for a corpse to become a Skeleton, the corpse needed to have a spirit flame. Only after a person died would the person become a Skeleton, but because players' bodies were just shells, they didn't die true deaths. This meant that players wouldn't become Skeletons.

Only players' consciousness entered the Heaven Awaken World, and because their true spirit flame was within their bodies in the real world, players couldn't become Skeletons.

Moreover, because players would respawn after dying, Su Yan's plan was to use players to whittle down the Undead Disaster.

If he could gather the players into an army and continuously kill the Skeletons, this would greatly restrain and slow down the Undead army.

At the same time, the players who died wouldn't become Skeletons, so the Undead Disaster wouldn't have many new Skeletons joining. Adding on the fact that Skeletons would continuously be dying in battle, the number of Skeletons would gradually diminish.

Before, Su Yan could mobilize almost all of the factions in the northern side, but within each region, their combined strength was far too weak to face the Undead Disaster. However, things were different now because many more factions had joined.

This was especially so with the top-tier factions, which caused the northern side's factions' strength to increase greatly. This gave Su Yan the confidence to carry out his plan.

What was also key was that Great Qin's reputation had plummeted because it had destroyed the peace and hope in China. This caused the countless ordinary players to hate Great Qin.

Su Yan could take advantage of this to make people despise Great Qin and have countless ordinary players join in. Now, their side had a massive amount of money, and if the ordinary players were given some benefits, they would definitely join.

A system main city usually had at least one million players, so four system main cities would have roughly four million players. If he could use all of them, they would be of great help against Great Qin.

Moreover, ordinary Skeletons were quite weak - an average person could take on a few Skeletons, so four million players should be able to take down at least ten million Skeletons. If they were able to repeat this a few times, the Undead Disaster would naturally stop.

Great Qin had used the Disaster Festival to collect a large number of corpses. In the future, it would be difficult to obtain so many corpses, and even if Great Qin wanted to cast Undead Disaster, it wouldn't have an opportunity to do so in the future.
