Chapter 398: Undead Race will handle the Sea Race invasion

"Thank you for your assistance," the president said, hovering in the air, his gratitude towards Alex genuine.Both Sea Race Sovereign level beings were dead. Alex was extracting their souls, intending to fuse them through a special method to summon a Sovereign level undead.

"You're welcome. I have a question for you. Do you know my true identity?" Alex replied with a faint smile.

The president paused. Judging by this woman's ability to defeat Sovereign level beings with Emperor level strength, only one possibility came to mind. He exchanged glances with the vice president below, and seeing the confirmation in his eyes, his suspicion was confirmed.

"You're the undead lord?"

The president knew that the previous undead lord was human. Looking at this woman, she indeed resembled a human in appearance.

"That's right. And you should also know that I have a reason for saving you."

Alex descended slowly, holding the two Sovereign level souls in her hand. The president landed nearby.

The vice president immediately approached, whispering something to the president.

"I see. Rest assured, we don't participate in higher-level decisions. That's precisely why we were transferred to Yellowrock City."

"Pfft—" Alex couldn't help but laugh. "You're a Sovereign level mage. You got ostracized for being a loner?"

"It's not exactly ostracization. The Arsen continent is resource-poor and strategically insignificant. We weren't trusted, so we were sent here."

The president explained politely. He was a burly middle-aged man with a short beard. Like the vice president, he didn't wear a mage robe.

"Alright, I can help you leave the Arsen continent. But in return, I need you to deliver a message to the Mage Guild."

Alex gazed at the horizon, her tone serious.

"Tell us." The two men were delighted at the prospect of leaving the Arsen continent.

Although they were safe for now, escaping the continent would be difficult in their current situation.

The Arsen continent was essentially devoid of major factions. It wouldn't be long before the Sea Race conquered the entire continent.

Their deployment of Sovereign level beings indicated that they were serious this time. Searᴄh the Nôvelƒire.net website on Google to access chapters of novels early and in the highest quality.

"I need you to convey a message to the Mage Guild. The undead race will handle the Sea Race invasion. No other faction needs to intervene."

The two men were stunned. They had expected some kind of excessive demand, but this?

The undead race dealing with the Sea Race? It was a win-win situation for the Mage Guild.

"That's no problem at all. With Yellowrock City destroyed, constructing a transcontinental teleportation array would be a massive undertaking. The Mage Guild, and all other races, are unwilling to waste the time and resources. We're grateful for your willingness to shoulder this burden. I speak for all of humanity."

The president spoke respectfully. He hadn't expected the new undead lord to be so selfless.

"But what about the civilians in the Southridge Republic?"

The vice president voiced his concern, worried about the innocent humans caught in the crossfire.

"I can only guarantee your safe passage. As for the Southridge Republic, I'll do my best. If the Sea Race can threaten the civilians in the heart of the continent, then I've already failed."

The Southridge Republic had a population of at least 1.5 billion. Evacuating them would be a logistical nightmare, and even if they reached another continent, resettlement would be another challenge.

"If such a crisis arises, we won't stand idly by and watch you fight alone!"

"Rest assured, I can handle anything short of the Sea God's personal intervention." ϺƲᒪƎϺρΥᏒ.ϲՕϺ

Alex exuded confidence. She wasn't concerned about first-stage Sovereign level beings.

As for second-stage Sovereign level beings, Alex had a plan. Third-stage Sovereign level beings rarely intervened in such matters. They were close to achieving divinity and were focused on their breakthroughs, not petty squabbles.

Besides, a top-tier race usually had no more than five third-stage Sovereign level beings.

Alex chatted with the two men for a while, learning that the president's name was Faelan and the vice president's name was Elric. They had revealed their names, a sign of their goodwill towards Alex.

As leaders of the Mage Guild, Faelan and Elric were familiar with the undead race. There had never been any fundamental conflict between the two factions.

Moreover, Alex had just saved their lives.

After some small talk, Alex asked the crucial question.

"The Holy Court left early. Can they still return to the Arsen continent?"

Alex's knowledge of the Holy Court was limited to their early encounters. She hadn't seen them since.

"Knight City was their only stronghold on the Arsen continent. They likely destroyed the teleportation array when they left. But to be safe, we can accompany you and destroy the entire city."

Faelan offered his suggestion. Knight City had no civilians, and their relationship with Yellowrock City was distant. They rarely interacted.

"In that case, I would appreciate your assistance."

"It's a small matter."

The three of them departed from the ruins of Yellowrock City, flying towards Knight City, located on the Republic's border.

But when they arrived, they were stunned. Knight City was in ruins.

"It's been destroyed?"

Alex descended slowly, examining the rubble. The debris was damp, and a faint stench of fish lingered in the air.

"Could it be the Sea Race?"

Elric stared at the ruins, puzzled.

But neither Alex nor Faelan shared his suspicion.

They still believed in their previous theories.

There were only two possibilities. Either the Holy Court had received some kind of warning and fled, deliberately leaving the Mage Guild to suffer the consequences before suppressing the news.

A classic case of "if I'm going down, you're coming with me."

Or, this was all a staged act by the Holy Court and the Sea Race. Perhaps they had formed an alliance, with the Sea Race acting as mercenaries against the Mage Guild.

Regardless of the truth, it didn't concern Alex. It wasn't her problem.

Whether the Sea Race remained neutral or not, the undead empire's expansion would inevitably put them at odds.

Alex activated her earth sphere, examining the ruins of Knight City.

The two men behind her gasped in astonishment. President Faelan finally understood how she had managed to slay a Sovereign level being.

Her mastery of the earth sphere was even greater than his own!
