Chapter 203

"Huh? Is there an enemy invasion?"

Feeling the message transmitted in his mind, Su Hao couldn't help but frown slightly.

The skeleton warriors are the summoned creatures he created using the skeleton warrior summoning technique.

Therefore, as long as the distance isn't too great, Su Hao receives news of their death whenever a skeleton warrior dies.

Just now, the skeleton warrior who had followed Su Hao's orders to go to the territory's edge and retrieve the corrupted flesh suddenly died.

This skeleton warrior's death was like a fuse.

Immediately after,

The skeleton warriors stationed at the territory's edge also began dying one after another at this time.

This made Su Hao doubtful, knowing that the skeleton warriors stationed at the territory's edge, tasked with protecting the corrupted source, numbered over ten thousand.

Near his territory, how could there be such a force capable of threatening these skeleton warriors? Let alone nearby—even if you scan the whole Dark Forest, a force capable of threatening over 10,000 skeleton warriors would be hard to find even a few.

But the problem is that major powers usually have an unspoken understanding; without huge interests driving them, they try to avoid conflict with each other as much as possible.

At the edge of Su Hao's territory, there is only the corrupted source entity and corrupted flesh; to others, these things are purely harmful with no benefit.

As for the situation inside the territory, there is a Withered Ancient Tree that constantly demonstrates the Withering Curse.

Numerous plant warriors stand guard, and furthermore Xue Nv and Ling'er, two supreme experts, hold the fort.

For outsiders to sneak in silently is impossible, let alone gathering relevant intelligence.

In that case, how could anyone possibly fight over these useless corrupted flesh with over 10,000 skeleton warriors?

Precisely because of this, Su Hao becomes ever more puzzled; if it's not for profit, why would the other side attack the skeleton warriors?

"Let's go take a look!"

After pondering deeply, Su Hao also did not obtain the corresponding answer.

Immediately he temporarily set aside his affairs, summoned the Bone Dragon and Da Xiong Mao, and together they headed toward the edge of his territory.

……

"This is……"

Su Hao and Da Xiong Mao rode on the Bone Dragon's back; in a short while they arrived at the edge of the territory, looking down at the monsters fighting the skeleton warriors, and a look of surprise appeared on his face.

"How can there be so many undead creatures here?"

These monsters come in many varieties; some are corpses entirely of rotting flesh, while others are skeletons lacking any flesh at all.

Their Supernatural Grade ranges from First Rank to Second Rank.

Besides these, there are skeleton knights clad in silver-white armor, riding skeleton warhorses; all of them are uniformly Third Rank monsters.

Farther off, skeleton mages wielding white bone staffs and wearing tattered robes have a greater fluctuation in Supernatural Grade, ranging from First Rank to Third Rank.

In the sky, large numbers of liches remain, nothing but souls; their Supernatural Grade is basically Second Rank, with only a small portion reaching Third Rank.

In the higher sky, bone dragons over a hundred meters long circle about; although their Supernatural Grade is also Third Rank, their strength is evidently far greater.

The number of these undead creatures is so vast that it's impossible to see the end at a glance. Su Hao just can't figure out why so many undead creatures have appeared at the edge of his territory.

According to his memories from his previous life, in this Dark Forest, aside from when the undead calamity struck, there had never been a large-scale appearance of undead creatures.

Moreover, even during the last undead calamity, undead creatures of this scale did not appear.

If the undead creatures of the undead calamity were all like those before us, humanity would likely be wiped out in the undead calamity.

Even at the time of Su Hao's rebirth, the number of Third Rank Supernatural humans was not large, and Fourth and Fifth Rank Supernaturals were exceedingly rare.

If humanity worldwide were to face such an army composed of large numbers of Second and Third Rank undead creatures, there would be no hope but death.

"Roar! (Master, I sense the aura of an evil god on them.)"

Just as Su Hao was puzzled about their origin, the remaining Bone Dragon suddenly let out a low growl.

"An evil god?"

Su Hao frowned slightly; after hearing the Bone Dragon's reminder, he also noticed that among these undead creatures, strands of black mist coiled around them.

Following the direction of these weapons' source, one can clearly feel that in a distant forest, the light is noticeably darker.

Moreover, recalling the scene he had seen at Wangling Hai, Su Hao can basically confirm that these undead before him emerged from that darker forest due to the evil god's power.

What puzzles him is how the evil god knows the location of his territory and why it would send an undead army to attack him.

I haven't provoked you at all—why would you inexplicably send an army to mess with me? If you have a grudge, take it up with the Death God; what's the point of bothering a nobody like me?

But soon, Su Hao figured it out.

According to Grandpa Andrew and the others, Su Hao is the Death God's chosen one.

As the Death God's arch-enemy, it makes sense that the evil god would want to kill him.

"It seems we need to quickly build the Death Tombstone; I just got back not long ago, and the evil god already sent people to my door."

"If we drag this out, the evil god might even show up in person."

Su Hao's face darkened; dealing with Third and Fourth Rank undead creatures, even Fifth Rank undead, he isn't afraid at all.

But if Su Hao had to face the evil god, he would have no confidence whatsoever; the two are not even on the same scale.

Especially after learning of the grudge between the Black Dragon and the Shadow Priest, Su Hao's wariness of the gods increased a bit.

Sixth Rank Supernaturals, in the face of the gods, are only fit to be toyed with; Su Hao is merely a Second Rank Supernatural, and he doesn't even have the qualification to confront the gods directly.

Therefore, matters concerning the gods are best left to the gods themselves to resolve.

Su Hao immediately decided to prioritize the construction of the Death Monument.

Coincidentally, he already has all the materials needed to build the Death Tombstone on his person.

However, before building the Death Monument, he must first eliminate all the undead creatures before him.

Among these undead creatures, there are many Second Rank and Third Rank Supernatural monsters; relying solely on the roughly 10,000 skeleton warriors below is obviously no match for them, so more forces must be summoned.
