249 The Undead Warriors
Su Wan’s face darkened. She was still being used as a tool.
However, she couldn’t dwell on that now. This was no time to be distracted.
She looked into the distance under the cover of the bushes.
A little ahead, three terrifying creatures appeared out of nowhere.
!!
The troops were wearing silver armor with red spider lilies engraved on them. They had huge helmets on their heads with curved horns. Thick chains wrapped around their arms, which were attached to the battleaxes they held in their hands.
One such soldier was very huge and burly. He was taller than the tallest and strongest soldier on Su Wan’s side.
The helmet, which only revealed the eyes, emitted a pitch-black light. That was the Soul Fire.
Su Wan looked around and found several corpses on the ground a few paces away. They were obviously troops sent by the other Lords but had been brutally killed.
The blood had crusted into a black mass. They must have been dead for a long while.
She activated the True Eye of the Demon Dragon.
[Undead Warrior]
[Level: 62]
[Potential: SS-class]
[Abilities]
[Body of the Dead: Grade S, immune to poison and plague, defense increased by 30%, will not die as long as the heart is intact.]
[Roar: Grade C, after the Roar, the potency of the next attack is increased by 30%.]
[Battle-Axe Killing: Grade D, able to throw the battleaxe to attack enemies within 30 meters, able to retrieve the battleaxe through the chain on the arm, can deal massive magic damage to the enemy.]

[Fetter Battle-Axe: If the battleaxes’ throwing distance is 10 meters, the damage dealt is increased by 20%. If the distance is 11 – 20 meters, the damage dealt is increased by 30%. If thrown at a distance of 21–30 meters, damage dealt is increased by 50%. There is also a 30% chance of triggering instant death skill execution, directly killing the enemy. The stronger the enemy, the smaller the chance of triggering it.]
[Note: never underestimate the undead. They were all heroes when they were alive!]
Far away in the territory, Xu Yuan exclaimed at the attribute panel that he saw through Su Wan. The undead could attack from a distance and still deal significant damage! What was even more ridiculous was the triggering of the instant death execution.
Xu Yuan wished he could recruit this creature to his troop. He would be an asset. It was a pity that the attribute panel didn’t show whether the Undead Warrior could be recruited. It was better to focus on the Night Devil Bees for now.
“My Lord, we have located the Queen of the venomous Night Devil Bees.” The Night Elf reported.
The queen bee was the main progenitor of the bee colony. By secreting unique pheromones, the queen bees attracted the worker bees to her, thus creating the colony.
There were usually thousands of bees in one colony, with the queen bee as the leader. If Xu Yuan could recruit the Night Devil Queen Bee, the other Night Devil Bees would automatically fall in line.
The Night Devil Queen Bee would continue the progeny of the Night Devil Bees. Even if she couldn’t be resurrected, her combat power would come in handy as long as she was alive.
“We must capture the Night Devil Queen Bee.” Xu Yuan communicated the message to Su Wan.
“Let’s go!” said Su Wan as she led her troops.
The terrain had a large area of plants and bushes. This gave them ample cover. If they were careful, the Undead Warriors wouldn’t notice them.
After making a big detour, Su Wan saw through the gaps in the grass that a structure was hidden among the densely packed trees.
It was a huge beehive with thousands of Night Devil Bees buzzing around. The buzzing was incessant. Su Wan and the others did not dare step into the Night Devil Bees’ territory.
The sight was enough to scare the sh*t out of anybody. Su Wan activated the True Eye of the Demon Dragon once again.
[Night Devil Beehive]
[Level: A]
[Recruitment: The Night Devil Queen Bee can be trapped to recruit the Night Devil Bees.]
[Quantity: 1000 bees]
[Weekly Production: 10]
[Hundred Night Flower Honey: The Night Devil Bees’ honey is made from 100 different types of flowers of darkness. It can neutralize a variety of poisons. If consumed long, it can restore youth, strengthen the body, and increase immunity to certain poisons.]
[Note: Rare nest. The Night Devil Queen Bee is the most important aspect of the bee colony. She has high intelligence but no combat power. However, the Night Devil Bees are dangerous. They protect their queen. Their poison is fatal.]
They were finally at the beehive! Su Wan’s eyes widened in delight. The Night Devil Bess troop type was definitely rare and significant. She needed to recruit them at all costs! In addition, there was the Hundred Night Flower Honey, which had many benefits!
Su Wan was especially about the added benefit of youth restoration. She could remain beautiful forever!
Su Wan was determined to recruit the Night Devil Bees, one way or another. Her exhaustion was long gone. She had a new motivation.
Xu Yuan shook his head helplessly. He sighed. If he had known about the Hundred Night Flower Honey, he wouldn’t have tried so hard to urge Su Wan to fight the Night Devil Bees. She would have gone willingly.
The team led by the nine-headed Hydra prepared to clash with the Undead Warriors. They wanted to leave a clear path for Su Wan to succeed. For that, they needed to eliminate surrounding threats.
They had to be careful of the battleaxes thrown by the Undead Warriors. Although they weren’t strong enough to break through their defenses, the added potency of the attacks irritated the Hydra.
The Night Elves were at a loss. Their cursed arrows didn’t do any damage because the Undead Warriors were immune to poison and curses. The arrows just collided against the undead and bounced off uselessly.
It was a good thing that they were strengthened under the effect of the Demonic Dragon’s Blessing. Otherwise, even someone as strong as the Hydra would have had to retreat.
They had to stop the Undead Warriors from throwing their battleaxes at all costs! If instant death was triggered, the Hydra’s team would fail and Su wan would be in danger!
If the Undead Warriors discovered Su Wan and her team, the recruitment process would fail even before it started.
Therefore, fighting the Undead Warriors one by one was the only way. They had to lure them away and kill every single one of them. The Hydra also had dragon blood to some extent, and his combat power was very potent. He thought of a way.
He commanded the troops. He had a plan in mind. Xu Yuan was not here to fight for them. The Hydra, the Red-Eyed Black Dragon, the White Dragon Saint, and the Third Prince all needed to get stronger if they wanted to fully serve Xu Yuan.
In the future, the territory would expand. Su Wan would definitely need help to manage it. Therefore, they needed to get stronger to help her.
A few minutes later, the Undead Warriors noticed a few Night Elves hiding among the grass.
