Many bloodline warriors didn't notice that the pools of blood at their feet were disappearing unknowingly.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Along with the corpses of their comrades, small scorpions, and Blind Spiders, they too vanished.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>In their place, skeleton archers holding bows and carrying bone arrows on their backs staggered up from the bones and corpses.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Whoosh!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>A bone arrow shot up into the sky, striking a Blind Spider that was leaping using spider silk. The Blind Spider's largest compound eye instantly shattered.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Immediately after, an evil deathly aura drifted out from the compound eye, and the Blind Spider's body rapidly shriveled, falling to the ground like a pile of rotten flesh.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>This bolt was like a signal.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Swish!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Swish! Swish!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Swish! Swish! Swish!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Initially, the bolts were sparse, like scattered stones.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Then, the bolts became as dense as woven fabric, like a net cast out.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Later, the bolts fell like rain upon Shadowcrag Forest, upon all the Blind Spiders.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The first powerful assault from the Blind Spiders was forcefully slowed down amidst this rain of arrows.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Spear throwers, form up!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>With the situation easing, Drakthul immediately gathered the spear throwers of the giant armies, surrounding Selenis and the two necromancers in the center to protect them anew.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Gronthar, an Alpha-level Blind Spider is gradually approaching our lines. Let's go kill it.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Earthshaker called out to Gronthar and, riding his hyena, once again rushed into the forest.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Gronthar, unwilling to be outdone, chose another direction and also entered the forest.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>They weren't afraid of the Alpha-level Blind Spiders but feared that such powerful monsters would break through the outer perimeter of skeleton warriors and small scorpions.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>If their battle lines were broken, the bloodline warriors of the three armies brought by Earthshaker, Gronthar, and Drakthul would suffer extremely heavy casualties.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Hehehe... It seems we've been treated as weaklings, becoming the ones to be protected!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"They're underestimating us. I propose we let them feel the power of the undead.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The two necromancers conversed in hoarse voices, attracting Selenis's attention.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Ah!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Ah!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>That was a wail of agony!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>A howl from the soul!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The next moment, all creatures in the nearby area possessing souls were impacted.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Earthshaker, Gronthar, and Drakthul fared better; they weren't deliberately targeted and only found the two howls very piercing.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>As for those Blind Spiders, it was as if their brains had suffered a severe blow; all of them fell to the ground, letting out cries of pain.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Some of the weaker Blind Spiders even exploded and died instantly.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>This soul-howl lasted for more than a minute before stopping.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Everyone, the dark creatures in the vicinity have been heavily injured by us.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Why not take this opportunity to kill them and gather materials for the deadlands?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>A necromancer's hoarse and smug voice sounded. Selenis, who was closest, reacted immediately, directing the small scorpions to crawl into the forest and harvest.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Deep within Shadowcrag Forest, an Alpha-level Blind Spider covered in dark green runes lay prostrate on a giant tree, gazing at the distant battlefield.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Is this black magic?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"No, such a dense deathly aura... it's undead magic.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"But what was that magic just now?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"It was very powerful, capable of injuring the soul.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The Alpha-level Blind Spider muttered, speaking human words.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Evidently, residing within this Blind Spider was precisely a will projection of Lolth the Spider Queen.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Lolth was clever and also wise.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The Blind Spiders' first wave of attack just now had gained a significant advantage.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>At that time, if she had pressed forward with all her might, the outcome on the battlefield would surely not have been like this.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>As for who would have won or lost, it was hard to say.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"To think there are even two Alpha peak necromancers... this invasion lineup is truly formidable!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>To be honest, Lolth's will projection no longer dared to appear directly on the battlefield.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Because the soul attack unleashed by those two necromancers just now had reached a level capable of heavily damaging a will projection.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>If the will projection forcibly appeared on the battlefield, it might be able to defeat the enemy, but this wisp of her will projection would also very likely be destroyed.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Losing a will projection would affect a Legendary powerhouse's own strength; for Lolth, it was a loss she couldn't afford.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Because she faced not only these invaders but also her neighbors around her territory who harbored malicious intent towards her.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"What should I do now?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Retreat, or continue the siege?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"...\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The void passage. Lolth the Spider Queen remained silent, so Orion could only divert his attention to Browse for goods on the Survivor's Platform.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Of course, Orion also took the time to share the relevant intelligence he had gathered with his allies in the Champions Alliance.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Hulk: \"Bros, the deadlands conversion is complete; the graveyard conversion formation is currently being set up.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Hulk: \"Also, two sets of positioning devices have been placed. Once this invasion ends, Arthas's subordinates can teleport over.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>For this invasion, there were a total of five accompanying necromancers.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Two of them stayed in the hyena territory to set up formations, while two followed Earthshaker, Gronthar, and Drakthul on their sweeps, assisting the group.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The last one mysteriously disappeared right at the beginning.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Of the two sets of positioning devices carried by the invading armies, one was with that mysteriously vanished necromancer.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>This was actually a precautionary measure, in case the invading armies were wiped out and lost the chance to teleport.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Of course, that mysteriously vanished necromancer also bore the important responsibility of map reconnaissance.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Leonidas: \"Hulk, if we team up, it doesn't need to be so troublesome. My beast armies can directly descend into the area where your base is.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Hulk: \"That's no problem, but we'll have to wait until the cross-realm invasion is over.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Leonidas was already impatient. According to the intelligence obtained so far, the Emerald Dream Realm was a delicious big cake.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Although there was currently a demigod presence overseeing the Emerald Dream Realm, and powerhouses at arch lord level or above couldn't easily set foot there...\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>However, when that evil being hiding behind the scenes began to close the net, let alone arch lords, even demigods could descend.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>That would be the time for them to truly show their prowess.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Edward: \"That spider broodmother tested the contract scroll three times. She wanted to use a broodmother larva, a will projection, and a seed to sign the contract with me; I rejected them all.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The Deputy Commander's statement made everyone fall silent for a short while.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Leonidas: \"No way!
