Chapter 1084: Testing the undead



I was standing in a forest in the middle of nowhere.

This was a place near the border of the former Darius Kingdom, but it was a place that was inside of the land that was now controlled by our Kite Kingdom.

It seemed like a place that shouldn't have anything here, but I wasn't alone.

I wasn't just referring to the guards that followed me, I was talking about the undead that were just standing there in front of me.

These were the undead that had been raised by the lich and sent to attack our border.

After the lich was destroyed and I gained the power of the lich's Orb of the Dead, I had used the Orb of the Dead to control the undead to come to this location.

Looking at the undead that were in front of us, my guards revealed worried looks.

After all, the undead that were here was a large horde that looked quite terrifying. This was a horde that would have caused quite a few injuries if we were to fight them.

So even if they looked docile, the guards didn't dare let their guard down for even a second. They were ready to react the moment that the undead did anything, but they didn't do anything.

I looked at Klein who was standing in front of me and just shook my head before taking out the Orb of the Dead.

With the Orb of the Dead in my hand, I focused on the undead that were in front of me.

With this Orb of the Dead, I could feel the connection that formed with the undead.

At the same time, the undead looked up at me as if they were responding to the connection that was formed.

As I focused on the Orb of the Dead, there was this faint dark energy that came out of the Orb of the Dead.

This faint dark energy was similar to the dark energy that the lich used when it was controlling the undead, but it was also different since it wasn't as strong as the dark energy that the lich controlled.

The dark energy that I released almost seemed to be see through with how light it was. That was just how weak I was compared to the lich.

It really seemed strange that someone like me was able to take down the lich and take its power for myself.

I had to admit that if it wasn't for divine intervention, there was no way that would have happened in the first place.

With the dark energy that came from the Orb of the Dead, the undead started to move.

They all raised one hand and then...suddenly brought it up to their heads as if they were saluting.

They all stood at attention and saluted me.

Klein and the others had shocked looks on their faces before slowly looking at these undead with strange looks. It was as if they couldn't believe what the undead were doing, but there was no denying it when it was right there in front of their faces.

So in the end, they had no choice but to accept this.

After making the undead salute, I suddenly had them turn in the direction of each other before they started attacking each other.

This surprised Klein and the others again, but they saw that the undead weren't really attacking each other. With the way that they were acting, it seemed more like some kind of play than an actual attack on each other.

I was testing each of the undead to see what kind of movements they had, as well as letting them attack on their own to see how automating the undead would work.

It was all about seeing what were the limits in controlling the undead and how much they could do on their own.

After a while, I stopped the undead from attacking each other as a glint appeared in my eyes and I said, "Alright, it's time to get serious."
