This Holy Knight is So Despicable!
Chapter 494 - 415: Infrastructure Maniac Goes Online
CHAPTER 494: CHAPTER 415: INFRASTRUCTURE MANIAC GOES ONLINE
Fertility! Spread! Corrosion!
The Lava Skeleton King feels his divinity being eroded bit by bit!
He never imagined that such a small thing could actually affect him!
He is, after all, a being with divinity, albeit the lowest level of a god, yet no one told him that even divinity could not withstand this!
The Skeleton King hurriedly lifted his giant sword, continuously cutting down the mushroom mycelium on his leg bones. But before he could clean them off completely, the other leg bone also began to be entwined.
Even the divine artifact great sword he forged from his spinal bones started getting entangled with mycelium.
"What is this, what is this! Ahhhhhh!"
The Nether Fire in the Lava Skeleton King’s eye sockets blazed fiercely, and the molten rock power surged forth, attempting to burn all the mycelium on his body to ashes!
Yet, these mycelium seemed like supplements, growing even faster and more frantically.
In the blink of an eye, the skeleton king’s entire body was enveloped.
In an instant, the Lava Skeleton King was frozen in place.
This is, what is this feeling, so comfortable!
Being a skeleton for so long, long enough to have forgotten what it feels like to have a body!
Forgotten what breathing is!
Forgotten what a heartbeat is!
Forgotten what the sense of touch is!
Forgotten all the goodness of being born human!
And now, all of it surged to the forefront of his mind!
The Skeleton King was silent! The Skeleton King was confused! The Skeleton King was hesitant!
This, isn’t this quite nice?
No! This can’t be!
I am the great Lava Skeleton King! I have the pride of a king! And more importantly, the dignity of a god!
Even death cannot conquer me! How could I possibly submit here!
The originally scattered gaze of the Skeleton King once again gathered, yet some unheard voices began floating in his mind.
As if thousands were singing in unison, holy and dignified! Filled with all the truths of the world! Echoing incessantly between the soul and the body!
Among the myriad of sacred sounds, the Skeleton King seemed to hear a voice whispering quietly in his ear.
"Join, the glorious evolution... follow, Tai Sui!"
The Skeleton King tried to break free, but the more he struggled, the deeper he sank, his powerless struggle gradually subsiding.
In the end, the proud Lava Skeleton King thrust the divine sword in his hand into the ground.
He knelt on one knee, bowed his head in the direction of the Holy Flame Bone City, and prayed devoutly.
"Follow, Tai Sui!"
On the hillside, the massive group of molten lava skeletons seemed to have paused, all frozen in place.
They all knelt on one knee, and then countless sulfur mushrooms directly engulfed the skeleton army.
When the mushrooms disappeared, the mountains and fields were filled with newly born molten zombies. As their former king, the Lava Skeleton King was also promoted to become the Molten Zombie King.
In the Holy Flame Bone City, Lette clapped his hands and laughed heartily: "Great, we took it!
With this step firmly taken, the subsequent plans will proceed smoothly!"
Lilith was quite surprised: "I really didn’t know, this Sulfur Mountain Range is actually so essential to your future plans!"
"Of course it is!"
Lette pointed at the map to explain to Lilith: "This place, it’s a treasure trove.
After the Mushroom Beasts occupied the Sulfur Mountain Range, they conducted surveys and analysis of the local geographical conditions.
According to the investigation results.
This place contains nearly inexhaustible energy, abundant stone, and mineral resources!
Do you know what this means?"
Lilith blinked her bewildered eyes: "It means...what?"
"That’s why I say, you people don’t understand this kind of romance!"
Lette raised both hands, his expression highly excited.
"Of course, it’s infrastructure!
We will build a complete manufacturing industry chain here in the Sulfur Mountain Range!
This place will be a flashpoint!
It’s like a fire!
It will soon transform into a blazing flame, sweeping across the entire Nether Beach!"
Lilith looked at the craters on the screen, her brows furrowed.
To be honest, no matter how wonderful the future blueprints Lette draws, it’s hard for her to look highly upon this place.
From her point of view, this Sulfur Mountain Range area is quite barren.
Even if it produces immortal creatures, they’re just lava skeletons, which are merely skeleton soldiers with some molten attributes.
That’s all!
Otherwise, such a large area wouldn’t have remained with no great one willing to conquer it.
In the end, just a small Lava Skeleton King, who evolved from local skeleton soldiers, gained control of this area.
To put it nicely, it has no strategic value.
To put it bluntly, it’s a godforsaken place.
And Nether Beach itself is a godforsaken place, which shows how worthless this place is.
Initially, Lilith thought Lette chose such a force as his first adversary to test his skills and train his troops.
In fact, not only she but also other major forces keeping an eye on Lette’s forces thought the same.
Attacking the Lava Skeleton King is obviously because he’s easy to bully.
No need to worry about losing face if they lose their first battle.
It couldn’t be that he truly loves that cursed volcano-ridden place!
Even in the Nether Beach, volcanic eruptions are a real disaster.
Who would enjoy setting their power on a volcano cluster for fun!
For that reason alone, only local favourites like the lava skeletons survive near the Sulfur Mountain Range.
Such a place, when dumped at other powers’ doorsteps, would be despised.
Yet Lette treats it like a treasure?
Lilith was very confused.
As for the other big shots in the Nether Beach, they didn’t have time for confusion.
They knew that after Lette tested the waters, he would definitely muster his forces for large-scale attacks, carving out a vast territory for his power.
This is a given; each new emerging power goes through a similar process.
The Nether Sea endures, Nether Beach never dies, this is an eternal stage, where one sings and another makes an entrance, rising and falling until now.
After all, judging from Lette’s display of combat power against the Skeleton King, he’s a formidable opponent!
But just as everyone was actively preparing for war, they found that Lette made no moves at all.
Or rather, there was no movement to continue an attack.
His four cities remained quiet, and there was no sign of troops from the newly conquered Sulfur Mountain Range either.
The only notable change was that ever since the Mushroom Beast army completely took over the Sulfur Mountain Range, the volcanic eruptions there significantly decreased.
Days later, they even ceased entirely.
The big shots of the Nether Beach were very puzzled, sending their scouts to investigate.
Strangely, none of them returned!
So many powers, so many scouts, none of them...
Just as all the powers of the Nether Beach were dumbfounded.
A continuously burning army marched out magnificently from the Sulfur Mountain Range!
