Even if the soul is restored, it will permanently lower intelligence by one point.
The number of usable generals under my command is already limited. If General Sethstein is completely ruined, it would be difficult to find a suitable replacent in the short term.
It’s easy to obtain thousands of troops, but hard to find a capable general—this predicant has reached an extre in the Plains of Bone.
"My King, your wisdom is indeed beyond my consideration... My King, quickly look, what is that..." General Sethstein exclaid as he pointed at the skeleton sand table.
As they spoke, a surge of fiery red power surged in from the east.
Even though this force was also red, they definitely would not confuse it with the slaughterous blood hue of the Defilers. Even through the skeleton sand table, they seem to clearly feel the aura that burns everything.
This new power, upon its appearance, spread out overwhelmingly and seed unstoppable, advancing faster than the Slaughter Army, and where it passed, the entire sand table was transford into fiery red.
The target was unmistakable: the Dragon Tomb in the Dragon Bone Domain.
"It is Burning Flas Queen Putana, I knew she would not be able to hold back and would send her forces first." The tone of the Giant Bone King instantly relaxed slightly.
The four Advanced Undead Lords have been fighting for an unknown number of years, knowing each other’s strength inside out.
The temperant of the Burning Flas Queen is as volatile and easily angered as the flas she masters, with a fearless deanor.
She dares to wage full-scale war against Ghoul King Doreisan on the strength of her own territory.
When it cos to patience compared to Old Lich Aldridge, the Giant Bone King is not confident of winning, but against the Burning Flas Queen, he is almost assured of victory.
However, the Burning Flas Queen indeed has the ans; her ability to incinerate everything makes her the most formidable entity in the Plains of Bone.
Often she single-handedly presses the advantage against both the Corpse and Dragon Bone territories.
Most often, she has the upper hand, requiring the Giant Bone King’s intervention to barely maintain the balance.
For her, this is naturally a once-in-a-lifeti opportunity.
As long as she can swallow the Dragon Bone Domain, she can absolutely crush both the Giant Bone and Corpse territories.
As for that Defiler, she likely doesn’t even regard him, treating him entirely as an interloper easily destroyed with a re wave of her hand.
General Sethstein anxiously proclaid, "We should deploy our forces now, don’t you know the power of that madwoman Putana? Imran alone definitely can’t withstand it, and it won’t be long before everything here turns into her Fla Bone Territory."
"If that situation arises and we end up neighboring this madwoman, our lives would never be peaceful."
"Wait a bit longer! Wait a bit longer! Wait a bit longer!" The Giant Bone King’s gaze fixed intently on his other neighbor, "Aldridge and Putana have always been opposed, he definitely won’t sit idly by while the Burning Flas Queen annexes the Dragon Bone Domain. He’d prefer to benefit rather than let her succeed."
"He is bound to take advantage of this and sneak into Putana’s... Old Lich, what are you waiting for? Move, move!"
The Corpse King’s deploynt to the Fla Bone Territory would be most advantageous to him.
Not only would he no longer fear that old lich sneaking behind his territory, but the Burning Flas Queen would also be caught in a dilemma, forced to retreat.
Every Advanced Undead Lord has their soul-bound domain: the King of Giant Bones’ Skull Castle, Skeleton Dragon King’s Dragon Tomb, Corpse King’s Lich Tower, and Burning Flas Queen’s Fla Spirit Pool.
There, their essence lies, and simultaneously, it is their source of power. There, they are the strongest, and the forces recruited there are the most suited to them—a result of millennia of continuous assimilation.
They would never abandon their lairs unless forced, just like those Low-level Undead Lords would never abandon their Soul Pools.
Once abandoned, they beco aimless, their power gradually weakening. Even if they seized common Soul Pools, it would only slow the pace of their decline.
This situation is most severe for the Burning Flas Queen, as the Corpse Burning Fla Spirit and Fla Ghost can only be recruited in her territory for now.
The Giant Bone King waited like this for a full day.
The Corpse King’s army halted its movent in the central region of the Plains of Bone.
It perfectly positioned itself at the vital points of everyone.
If it marches west, it can attack the Territory of Giant Bones.
If he leads his army south, he can sneak attack the defenseless Fla Bone Territory.
If he continues to advance, he can raid the Slaughter Territory.
The entire Plains of Bone focused on him, seeming oblivious only to the Burning Flas Queen.
She led her Burning Fla Army through the Dragon Bone Domain with rapid advancents, igniting countless Soul Pools, turning them into parts of her Fla Bone Territory.
This action is typical of her approach.
Rather than pondering idly, she’d have long turned countless enemies to ash, successfully securing nurous territories.
While everyone else engages in mutual calculations, competing with each other, she, the one rushing forward, becos the biggest beneficiary.
"Haha... Old Lich, you can no longer hold back, huh? I knew you couldn’t just watch Putana devour the Dragon Bone Domain... Sethstein, prepare to deploy, let’s seize the Dragon Bone Region together." The Giant Bone King couldn’t help but laugh heartily.
Because he had won the gamble, when the Burning Fla Army collided formally with the Dragonbone Army in the Dragon Bone Domain.
The azure representing the Corpse King finally moved, racing southbound with intent to swiftly raid the Fla Spirit Pool, aiming to snatch her ho.
Clearly, Aldridge was waiting too—waiting for the Burning Flas Queen’s army and the Dragonbone Army to beco entangled, as that was his optimal mont to deploy.
The Corpse King’s aim wasn’t to relieve the Skeleton Dragon King, but to maximize his own benefit. As long as he could seize the Burning Flas Queen’s territory, even if the Skeleton Dragon King were destroyed by her, he would erge the ultimate victor.
"What’s he doing? Has he lost his mind? He’s supposedly my ally; why undertake such foolish actions?"
The Giant Bone King’s joy lasted only half a day before he burst into fury.
Because the ally who had signed a treaty with him did not annihilate the Skeleton Army in the Dragon Bone Region, as promised to jointly attack the Dragon Bone Domain, but instead turned his forces to strike at the flank of the Corpse King’s army.
It’s all in disarray.
Everything’s in chaos.
This move entirely disrupted the Giant Bone King’s plans.
