Global Game: AFK In The Zombie Apocalypse Game

Chapter 2595  The Spreading Calamity

Death realm.

Fang Heng watched as the twelfth Bone Dragon slowly landed, a gleam of greed appearing in his eyes.

Although there had been some setbacks along the way, the outcome was still quite good.

The number of Bone Dragons in the Dragon Grave Mountain range was still unknown.

He decided to continue farming them for now.

Hmm?

Suddenly, Fang Heng noticed that the stone slab he carried with him began to heat up again.

He lowered his head and opened the stone slab, quickly checking the message left for him by the undead council.

”Imprinting too many creatures at once could result in a significant backlash. Please be cautious and do not force it...”

Fang Heng muttered the words under his breath, quietly pondering.

Indeed, when he had first learned the Bonesʼ summoning skill, there had been such a warning.

However, while controlling the undead Bones, he hadnʼt felt any difficulty at all.

Upon further reflection, controlling the soul imprint was mainly dependent on willpower and soul strength.

At present, in addition to his own attribute strength, his willpower had been enhanced by the demonic seed, which was more than sufficient. As for soul strength, it had greatly increased after merging with Abe Akaya, raising his overall power to a considerable level.

There was no pressure at all!

Since that was the case, he decided to continue!

The more, the better!

Ideally, he would be able to take control of all the Bone Dragons in the entire Dragon Grave Mountain range.

Then, he could find a way to bring the entire Dragon Grave Mountain range back with him...

Fang Heng thought to himself, then once again issued a command to the Bone Dragon to patrol the Dragon Grave Mountain range and lure another Bone Dragon over.

Clayton Empire – one of the Nine Great Empires in the death realm.

Since the Empressʼs demise, and with the constant rise and fall of various Dark Clan factions within the death realm, the region had eventually been divided among the Nine Great Powers.

The Dragon Grave Mountain Range was located on the border of the Clayton Empire.

The intelligence reports from the Dragon Grave Mountain Range were quickly sent to the ruler of the Clayton Empire.

The ruler of the Clayton Empire opened the envelope and read through it for a moment, his brow furrowing tightly.

The Dragon Grave Mountain Range was of vital importance to the Empire—and indeed, to the entire world. Under normal circumstances, he would have dispatched his elite forces immediately to investigate.

However, at this particular moment, the Clayton Empire was in disarray.

A few days ago, a powerful surge of energy had erupted in the depths of the Nether River domain within the Vanni Empire, one of the Nine Great Empires.

The Nether River had always been a mysterious and sacred place in the death realm, and few Dark Clan members dared to enter it.

Once the Vanni Empire detected the anomaly, they immediately dispatched a team to investigate. To their shock, they discovered the Disaster in the outer periphery of the Nether River!

When the news returned, the entire Empire was shaken.

The Disaster, which had nearly led to the conquest of the death realm in the past, had appeared once again!

The Vanni Empire immediately mobilized its elite forces to try to eliminate the Disaster, explore the situation, and send out calls for aid to the other empires.

At first, the various powers of the death realm had been skeptical of the news.

But, just yesterday morning, a reconnaissance team sent by the Clayton Empire confirmed the reports.

It was true!

The Insect Plague, which should have perished alongside Empress Persephone, had reappeared in the death realm!

In just a few days, the Disaster had already claimed much of the Vanni Empireʼs territory.

The Disaster was rapidly spreading in all directions, engulfing the entire death realm at an alarming pace!

In a single day, the death realm had fallen into a crisis of imminent annihilation.

The rulers of the death realmʼs various empires realized the gravity of the situation and quickly formed joint teams, organizing their elites to head in different directions to block the spread of the Disaster.

Although thousands of years had passed, the Insect Plague had always been a source of dread in the ancient books of the Dark Clan.

For the ruler of the Clayton Empire, the most pressing issue was the Disaster.

The Clayton Empire shared a border with the Vanni Empire.

Now, with the Vanni Empire holding off the disasterʼs attacks, they still had time to catch their breath. However, once the disaster completely broke through the Vanni Empireʼs defenses, they would face the full force of it directly.

Dealing with the disaster had already stretched them thin!

The Empireʼs king set aside the envelope in his hand and looked up, asking, ”Have there been any updates from the front?”

”Your Majesty, the team we sent has confirmed it is the Disaster. Its strength is as terrifying as the rumors suggested. At this point, unless all the forces of the death realm fight to the death, the combined strength of a few empires cannot possibly withstand it.”

”What about the Hani tribe? It was they who brought the Insect Plague into the death realm. Have they said anything?”

”General Rio immediately led a team to investigate the Hani tribe after receiving the news. He has just returned.”

”Quick, have him come to see me as soon as he returns.”

”Yes!”

The Dark Clan typically had long lifespans, and for them, being several hundred years old was still considered young, barely entering adulthood.

General Rio had shown extraordinary talent from a young age and was one of the key military successors being groomed by the Clayton Empire.

Ten minutes later, General Rio entered the Great Hall, clad in armor.

”Your Majesty.”

Rio knelt on one knee and reported, ”I have thoroughly investigated the Hani tribe. I found that all of their elite forces had been drained. From what I gathered, some time ago, there was an anomaly at Empress Persephoneʼs mausoleum. The Hani tribeʼs patriarch personally led all the elites to investigate, but they have not returned. I fear something has gone terribly wrong.”

In the council hall, the high-ranking officials of the Empire whispered among themselves.

The Empressʼs mausoleum had always been a taboo for the Dark Clan.

The mausoleum domain had also been an area left unclaimed for as long as anyone could remember.

However, a few days ago, they sensed an unusual ripple emanating from the Empressʼs mausoleum.

At the time, they hadnʼt given it much thought.

Now, it seemed that the anomaly in the Empressʼs mausoleum might be linked to the outbreak of the disaster.

”Your Majesty, should I lead a team to investigate the Empressʼs mausoleum immediately?”

”Hmm...” The king pondered for a moment, then shook his head. ”No need. Entering the mausoleum is too dangerous. I will send another team to investigate the mausoleum, but only on the periphery. There is something more urgent that requires your attention.”

Rio clasped his hands together and said, ”Please, Your Majesty, give your orders.”

”Thereʼs been an incident at Dragon Grave Mountain. A strange human has appeared, and the Bone Dragons there have also been affected by his presence, showing signs of abnormal behavior.”

A human?

Rioʼs heart skipped a beat.

He had never seen a human in the Netherworld before.

”I fear that this humanʼs appearance might be connected to the sudden outbreak of the disaster. Rio, take a team and investigate.”

”Yes, Your Majesty.”

”The Bone Dragons at Dragon Grave Mountain are extremely important. They serve as effective air power, capable of suppressing the Insect Plague...”

The king paused for a moment, sighed inwardly, and continued, ”Against the Disaster, our Empireʼs strength alone is far from enough. Now, we can only hope that all the forces will put aside past grudges and cooperate sincerely to resist the external threat. Be cautious on your journey. If you encounter the Disaster, retreat immediately.”

”Yes, Your Majesty.”

Upon hearing the kingʼs orders, Rio stood up, gathered his elite team, and immediately set off toward Dragon Grave Mountain.
