Chapter 1347: The Forbidden Method

~6 min read 1,051 words

William Jors's voice slowly fell.

After hearing this, Li Yue's face immediately began to show subtle changes.

He nodded heavily and said, "Hmm, Lord Demon Slayer, you are right, but a huge problem has also appeared: even if we want to replenish our troops now, there are almost no real methods available!"

Due to the war, the combined forces of all lord factions on the entire continent total only a few hundred thousand; this strength is not enough to fill the Demon Race's teeth.

Hearing Li Yue's words, William Jors involuntarily shook his head, then looked at Li Yue and said, "No! You are wrong. I still have another trump card I haven't used yet."

Another trump card? What trump card?

Li Yue was stunned and couldn't help but ask.

Hearing this, William Jors's expression changed slightly and abruptly; he seemed reluctant to speak of such matters and also afraid to say them aloud. Thus, in this brief hesitation, Li Yue had already guessed some things from his expression.

Li Yue knew that this God of War Lord before him must have encountered some difficulty, or perhaps feared that speaking out would cause others to misunderstand.

Moreover, Li Yue could sense this from it; thinking this way, Li Yue smiled and said, "Lord God of War, if you have something to say, just say it directly. There is no need to hide or conceal anything. Now is not the time to overthink all sorts of chaotic things."

Hearing Li Yue say this, William Jors nodded, took several deep breaths, and then slowly began to speak.

"Do you remember? Among us lords, there used to be an unwritten rule: although we competed with each other, we could not use any evil or demonic arts. Although everyone appeared fine on the surface, in private, each one researched more powerfully than the other!"

Hearing this, Li Yue's expression changed slightly and abruptly; he slowly focused his gaze on the God of War Lord.

It seemed he already knew what the other intended to say next.

At this moment, William Jors continued, "And I conducted some inhumane research."

At this moment, Li Yue and Todd Nelson exchanged glances; a hint of surprise appeared in their eyes, clearly unsure what exactly William Jors had done.

"What kind of research!?"

Li Yue asked.

Hearing this, the corner of William Jors's mouth curled into a bitter smile as he said, "What I researched is a secret formula that can resurrect the dead."

Resurrecting the dead?

Hearing this sentence, Li Yue couldn't help but widen his eyes, looking utterly incredulous.

He never expected that William Jors would have developed such a powerful evil secret formula!

Resurrecting the dead!?

This simply overturned human understanding.

Don't look at me like that. The research can't be considered particularly successful, but another side effect has appeared.

A side effect?

Hearing this, Li Yue's heart trembled.

Yes, the side effect is that what is resurrected is not any living creature; more accurately, it is the existence of living dead. They have no thoughts and possess extremely strong aggressive desires.

Hearing this, Li Yue couldn't help but widen his eyes; he never expected that the evil secret formula William Jors researched was this.

Isn't this exactly the zombies I know?

Then isn't that extremely dangerous!?

Li Yue asked, his expression becoming serious.

After all, such a secret technique is so terrifying; once leaked, it would be a disaster for the entire continent.

Hearing this, William Jors nodded, then said, "Yes, exactly. Because of this reason, I dare not use it lightly."

Listening to William Jors's words, Li Yue fell silent.

He had to admit that William Jors's words were indeed correct; if this secret technique were made public, it would definitely bring endless troubles.

Moreover, such troubles could be catastrophic; once leaked, it would truly be a disaster.

Lord God of War William Jors continued at this point, "The reason I speak these words now is simply that there is truly no other way. If we continue like this, I fear we will eventually die at the hands of the Demon Race."

Hearing this, Li Yue and Todd Nelson also fell into silence.

After a long time, Princess Feifeng, Lord Todd Nelson, finally asked a question.

"Then, Lord God of War, is there any method to control the resurrected people?"

Hearing this, William Jors let out a bitter laugh.

Immediately, he said, "The resurrected people are not ordinary humans; ordinary methods simply cannot control them. To control them, one must establish a mental connection, but this has a huge side effect: because of the mental connection, one feels as if a personality has split off. If this continues for a long time, I do not know what situation will occur, so later I stopped researching these things."

Mental connection sounds easy, but in reality, it is extremely difficult.

It is like operating machines; if it is just one machine, it is relatively easy, but operating multiple machines leads to frantic scrambling and ultimately losing more than one gains.

Moreover, such things require extremely high soul power to be fully controlled.

If it is an ordinary person, they simply cannot achieve it.

William Jors said seriously, "If mental control is used, it may cause irreparable damage to the person establishing the mental connection, but if it is not used, the resurrected people will merely be mindless corpses that know only how to attack. If handled improperly, we will suffer the consequences ourselves. Therefore, whether to use this method or not is entirely up to you!"

Li Yue said nothing; instead, he crossed his arms, propped his chin, and thought seriously.

"I say, how great do you think our chances are of defeating the Demon Race?" At this moment, Li Yue asked these words.

Hearing this, Todd Nelson and William Jors were both stunned.

Todd Nelson thought for a moment and said, "I feel that this time, it will be very difficult for us to win!"

Hearing this, William Jors also said, "Indeed. Although we are prepared this time, the strength of the Demon Race side still cannot be underestimated. If calculated truly, our chances are less than thirty percent, perhaps even lower; and of that thirty percent, twenty percent relies on your strength, Lord Cheng Xi."
