If they could also enlist the help of the lord behind the lady vampire, who also commanded 8th-tier magic, they might be able to kill that fiend once and for all!
"Is that so," Evileye said, suppressing the emotions welling up inside her.
She hadn't expected this.
These undead of the Body of the Abyss were preparing to resist the moment they acquired the power of the ritual. It was clear that the mysterious True Dragon Lord's exploitation of this group had long since reached an unbearable point!
However—this was absolutely perfect!
"My lord has already instructed me that we do not intend to interfere in this matter," Evileye said, feigning apprehension.
Inwardly, she was desperately hoping the two sides would immediately go to war!
"No, no!" Benjerry of the Abyss said hurriedly, "This time, we are willing to pay any price!"
As he said the words "any price," his tone grew distinctly heavier, and even the negative energy in the hall began to surge.
This was the resolve they had to have!
If they succeeded, there was nothing more to be said. But if they failed, the outcome was predictable—their entire Body of the Abyss would be completely annihilated.
In the words of the living, no matter how many gold coins you possess, they become meaningless upon death.
Benjerry of the Abyss was extremely solemn. The light in his two pairs of scarlet eyes flickered as he looked at Evileye with immense expectation.
He had divulged so much important information!
This already demonstrated an extreme level of trust.
The reason for this, aside from the other party being a fellow undead, was the friendly attitude shown by that lord when he handed over the ritual to them.
The Dragon Lord predicted this!
Evileye was shaken. She remembered at the beginning, when she brought out the ritual for the transaction, she felt the value was unequal.
At that time, the Dragon Lord had said that what he valued was never the knowledge from a single transaction, but all the knowledge of the entire Body of the Abyss.
"I greatly admire your decisiveness."
"In that case—I will need to report to my lord and hear his opinion."
Evileye raised her head slightly, looking at the undead before her, who was far more powerful than she, with a pitying gaze.
This seemed to be a fated outcome!
Although they were all undead, Evileye did not like them. She was originally a human, not kin to this group.
In her heart, Evileye's sense of self was that of one of the "living," a "human."

On the other side.
When Tang Zheng received the information relayed from Evileye, he too was quite surprised.
What was originally the most troublesome matter had proceeded with unexpected smoothness. He hadn't thought that the Body of the Abyss would be so eager to rebel against that mysterious Dragon Lord.
Faced with this situation, Tang Zheng would not refuse. He had been stuck at level 60 for some time now. The problem wasn't experience anymore, but his job class.
There was too little information on how to acquire a high-tier or special job class.
At his current level, trying to investigate and make contact with the top-tier factions and individuals of this world was clearly not enough!
Evileye began to make contact with them more frequently.
At the same time, the inner circle members of the Body of the Abyss began to continuously transport their researched knowledge and data outwards, like ants moving house.
In Tang Zheng's view, Benjerry of the Abyss and the others had clearly prepared for the worst.

Abelion Hills.
After nearly three months of effort, Enri and Beast General Hector Weiss, leading the demi-human army, had finished clearing out the remaining undead in the hilly region.
Only at this moment was the crisis brought by the legendary undead "Death Knights" finally considered completely eliminated. Perhaps there were still small, scattered groups of undead in the depths of the hilly region, but they no longer posed a threat.
On the desolate grassland, Beast General Hector Weiss bent down, looking at a green sprout emerging from the withered yellow ground. A faint smile appeared on his stern face.
"For grass sprouts to appear this late in the season is quite delayed, but the drought in the hills has clearly been alleviated."
Beast General Hector Weiss let out a breath and stood up, looking into the distance with a flash of sadness and relief in his eyes.
Suddenly, a slender figure caught the corner of his eye.
Beast General Hector Weiss's gaze paused. In his field of vision was an elite squad composed of several demi-human races, including centaurs, blade armor beetles, quadrupedal beasts, and half-human half-beasts.
Their defining characteristic was their skill in running.
Only with powerful mobility could they have exterminated all the undead that had spread throughout the hills in just three months.
Yet among this host of demi-human races, there was only a single human figure.
*Thud!*
Beast General Hector Weiss strode forward on his four beastly hooves, his steps steady as he walked toward the somewhat lonely figure sitting on the ground.
"Enri, you've worked hard during this time."
Beast General Hector Weiss walked to her side, gazing into the distance as he spoke faintly.
After three months of contact, the initial unfamiliarity and wariness between them had long since vanished. In some ways, the human girl before him was even worthy of admiration.
"Teacher."
The chestnut hair by Enri's ear fluttered. She looked up and let out a bright laugh.
Her once petite figure had grown much taller, and her skin had taken on a wheat-colored tone. Her entire being radiated a spirit that was in no way inferior to that of an elite soldier.
Beast General Hector Weiss's eyelids lifted slightly, but he ultimately chose not to correct her, perhaps because he had grown used to being called that by her.
"The undead have all been dealt with. What will you do next?" Beast General Hector Weiss suddenly asked.
"What do I want to do?"
Enri was momentarily stunned. After a brief moment of confusion, her eyes lit up. "I'd kind of like to go home for a bit. It's been a while since I've seen the Captain."
Speaking of which, Enri raised her arm, clenched her fist, and flexed her bicep. The rolled-up sleeve tightened, revealing a firm muscle. "If I go back, everyone will definitely be shocked."
Beast General Hector Weiss didn't say much, merely nodding. They were, after all, different races.
If it weren't for the calamity caused by the undead, they would never have coexisted!
"Teacher..."
A familiar voice sounded.
If they could also enlist the help of the lord behind the lady vampire, who also commanded 8th-tier magic, they might be able to kill that fiend once and for all!
