Chapter 410: Alliance

Alex's words resonated with the assembled lords. Satan and Lilith's experiences were not unique or coincidental; other lords were likely facing even worse situations.Alex's goal was simple: to rally as many lords as possible. As for the remaining lords who clung to the system's promises, she would leave them to their fate.

She didn't have time to travel across continents dealing with individual lords. It was too time-consuming.

Their plan was straightforward, something they could accomplish without even leaving the undead empire's main hall. They all opened their system dashboards and started spamming the World Chat.

The effect was immediate. The lords present comprised the top ten of the leaderboard, wielding immense influence.

Especially Alex, who had consistently held the top spot since the leaderboard's introduction. Her message sent shockwaves through the World Chat.

The second to tenth-ranked lords followed suit, echoing her message verbatim.

All the Freelancers and lords were captivated. Their current situation was precarious, forcing them to live in constant fear and hiding. The World Chat was their only source of information and connection.

Moreover, it is common knowledge that the top-ranked lord commands an undead army. Any lord with even a modicum of power is aware of the recent remarkable performance of the undead.

[Greetings, fellow lords. This is Alex, the undead lord. I'm here to announce that the system has deceived us. We are all pawns in his game. The era crisis has begun, and we are all in danger. We must unite to face this impending threat.

The Eldoria continent is in chaos. The major races are joining forces to target us. I urge you to join my alliance. Come to the Eldoria continent and find me. This is the last safe haven.

This is a voluntary invitation, but I welcome all who wish to join. For your information, I'm currently at Sovereign level.]

[...This is Drake, the Rock Dragon lord...]

[...This is Lilith, the fallen angel lord...]

[...This is Satan, the demon lord...]

[...This is Xiao Mu, the light titan lord...]

[...This is Xiao Hui, the death angel lord. We have all joined forces. We are allies. You will not face any discrimination. If you don't want to hide in your kingdoms and wait for death, we welcome you...]

As these messages from the big shots flooded the World Chat, the other lords went wild.

Even many Freelancers started contacting their acquaintances, eager to join Alex's alliance. But there was a better option for Freelancers: the Liberty Church.

However, the number of surviving Freelancers far exceeded their expectations. A single Liberty Church couldn't accommodate them all.

Therefore, the undead empire would take in the Freelancers on the Eldoria and Arsen continents. As for the other continents, Alex couldn't help them. They were on their own.

[Pika Princess]: "Thank you so much! I'm finally free from hiding! I've had enough of that life!"

[Kobe]: "Basketball kingdom requests to join!"

[Donut]: "Wait, the top-ranked lord is already at Sovereign level?"

[NotARobot]: "I swear, the top-ranked lord is a beautiful lady. I'm joining her!"

[Morningstar]: "Where's the Eldoria continent? I'm a Freelancer. What should I do?" МᏙᒪƎМƤΥЯ.ϽӨƜ

...

The World Chat was buzzing with activity. Drake and the others ignored the idle chatter, focusing on the lords who wished to join their alliance.

However, a steady stream of Freelancers continued to express their interest.

But lords were the primary source of faith power for the system. Their priority was to deal with the lords.

As for the Freelancers, Alex decided to simply post the coordinates of all the undead fortresses on the Eldoria continent in the World Chat. If they could find them, they could use them to reach the undead empire.

She also instructed Sophie to inform the Liberty Church to find ways to accommodate the Freelancers on the other continents.

However, many Freelancers had already integrated into human society and didn't respond to their invitation.

This saved them some trouble.

Satan and Lilith decided to relocate, abandoning their original kingdoms and establishing cities on the outskirts of the Dark Forest. They also left their previous alliances and formed new ones to accommodate the incoming lords. This would streamline the process.

But it wasn't as complicated as they had anticipated. There were only about fifty surviving lords. The rest had become Freelancers.

The disparity in numbers was significant. The Freelancers were the bigger challenge.

Within three days, the undead empire had taken in nearly a hundred thousand Freelancers, while the Liberty Church had taken in over a million.

Thirty lords had chosen to join Alex's alliance.

As for the remaining twenty lords, they were likely unwilling to abandon the system. Alex didn't bother with them.

Freelancers were still joining, and Alex had relaxed the restrictions, allowing them to choose any city within the undead empire's territory.

But to her amusement, they all chose to join the undead Imperial Capital.

Accommodating a mere hundred thousand individuals was a trivial matter for the vast undead Imperial Capital.

The city was becoming livelier, shedding its former lifelessness.

During these three days, everyone except Alex was busy settling the new Freelancers and lords, explaining the truth about the world and the undead empire's plans.

Although abandoning the system was a difficult decision for lords who had reached King level, seeing the abundance of Emperor level troops within the undead empire and hearing Alex's promises, they ultimately chose to trust her. They no longer felt any regret about losing the system.

The Freelancers were more casual about it. They had already lost almost everything related to the system the moment they became Freelancers, except for the World Chat.

And the World Chat didn't matter much to them. They had stopped using the system when they decided to integrate into human society.

Alex had other matters to attend to, so she left the rest to Sophie and the others. Sёarch* The ηovёlFire .net website on Google to access chapters of novels early and in the highest quality.

Soon, a large number of dwarves arrived at the undead Imperial Capital, constructing houses, roads, and other infrastructure. The undead empire was no longer lifeless, gradually developing a vibrant atmosphere.

As the Freelancers marveled at the grandeur of the undead empire and its mysterious structures, Alex had already arrived at the Skyreach Mountains, ready to fulfill her agreement with the Alpha Werewolf.
