Building the Strongest Undead Empire from Scratch

[Night retreats, dawn arrives.]

On the third day, on the Mossvale Continent, in Dragon City.

Drake claimed his system rewards, built another Auxiliary Barrack in the city, and casually tossed the Tear of the Race into his Warehouse.

He hadn't slept a wink the previous night, busy conquering yet another race. Looking at the Tears of the Race in his Warehouse, he now had five.

Thanks to Sophie's successful development of the specter fusion method in the undead imperial capital, the number of King level undead had surged, successfully alleviating the pressure on the Featherfolk battlefield.

They had also sent several King level undead to support Dragon City and Gemini City.

This greatly reduced the pressure on Drake. Even with his current Monarch level strength, he now had the confidence to challenge some King level race.

He only needed to give the orders, and the Death Spirit would handle the summoning. As the war continued, there would only be more and more King level undead.

Drake had now reached level 9 Monarch level and was only one step away from breaking through to King level.

Once he reached King level, he would be able to establish a vassal kingdom.

This way, he could collect faith for the undead empire. He believed that as a vassal king, he would definitely have a lot to offer.

A few days ago, Alex had completely wiped out the Angel Lord and her followers. As instructed, all the resources she gained were given to Drake.

With Alex's strong support, both Drake's city and Barracks had reached max level.

However, to his disappointment, the improvement wasn't as significant as he had imagined. Summoning one dragon every three days seemed to be the limit of the Barracks, even at max level.

The good news was that the dragons summoned now had a higher bloodline activation level and would grow stronger faster. Coupled with the Monarch level troops summoned by so many Auxiliary Barracks every day, he could now easily deal with the current dangers.

His primary goal now was to break through to King level and establish a dragon kingdom.

But today was the seventh day since he had left the undead imperial capital. According to Alex's rule, they had to gather and discuss their progress and future plans.

Drake put aside his current tasks and left the undead and dragons in charge. With the Death Spirit and several King level undead here, nothing could go wrong.

Just as Drake was about to leave for the undead imperial capital, a green dragon suddenly barged into his territory.

This green dragon wasn't as big as an adult dragon and didn't have forelegs. It only had two thick hind legs and a pair of massive wings. It slowly landed on the ground, using its folded wings as forelegs to support its body.

The entire green dragon was about as tall as Dragon City's walls. It was green all over, but the Dragon Presence it emanated told Drake that it was a pure-blooded dragon.

The terrifying Dragon Presence pressed down on the sub-dragons in the city, making it difficult for them to even lift their heads. Only the Rock Dragon and the undead were unaffected.

Drake was shocked and on high alert. All the Shadow Specters were ready for battle.

"Is the one supporting you that newborn undead lord?" the green dragon spoke in human tongue. It didn't seem too surprised to see the undead in the city, as if it had known all along.

It's not here to cause trouble?

Drake was taken aback, but he didn't stray too far from the Portal of Transit, ready to escape at any moment.

"Yes."

Besides Alex, who else could the undead lord be?

"Don't be nervous. I am an apostle of the dragon race and mean you no harm. The bloodlines of these dragons are not fully activated. They are not true dragons and are of little use to us. You can continue to develop here. We will not interfere."

The green dragon stood outside the city, looking at Drake, who was on top of the palace, and said some strange things.

It was not hard to hear from its words that they considered Drake's dragons to be outsiders and did not accept them.

The same went for the sub-dragons in the primeval forest. The dragon race's strength didn't rely on these sub-dragons to pave the way for them. To them, these sub-dragons were no different from outsiders.

"Then what is the purpose of your visit?" Drake asked. If it wasn't here for him, then it must be here for Alex.

"The undead lord, the newly born undead lord, is exceptionally talented. She is bound to reach Sovereign level within a hundred years. We hope to cooperate with the undead lord, after she reaches Sovereign level, of course."

The green dragon revealed its purpose. In return, they would not interfere with Undead Lord's development on the Mossvale Continent. This was their sincerity.

What?!

Drake was shocked and incredulous.

Alex was only at King level now, and the powerful dragon race actually wanted to cooperate with her?

The green dragon saw Drake's doubts but didn't explain further. If the undead lord were here, it might have said a few more words, but it obviously wasn't very interested in Drake.

It wasn't even worried about whether the undead lord would agree because they had a common enemy.

"But I can't make the decision for the undead lord," Drake said tactfully, trying to contain his surprise.

"She will agree. You just need to tell her what I said."

With that, the green dragon spread its wings and flew away.

It couldn't very well tell Drake that they needed the undead to attract the attention of the Angel race, could it?

The dragon race was currently weak. If they went to war with the Angel race, they would definitely lose. Their best ally would have been the Demon race, but the Titans' involvement had disrupted their plans. The human race was preoccupied with their own affairs, and the Sea Race was too mysterious. Therefore, the dragon race could only set their sights on the resurgent undead race.

There was no other way. They had to take revenge on the Angel race.

The undead race had the shortest development cycle among all races. The dragon race could wait for them for ten or even a hundred years. But don't forget that the undead still had many old allies. Once these old allies joined them, this time would only be shortened.

Once the undead lord reached Sovereign level, the Angel race would definitely come to kill her. At that time, the dragon race would seize the opportunity and launch a direct attack on the Angel race.

The dragon race knew very well that the Angel race had become increasingly active in recent years. They had to take the initiative.

Drake, left behind, was completely dumbfounded. He didn't even know what the dragon race was up to.

He immediately sent a message to Alex, telling her everything the dragon apostle had just said.

However, Drake felt that Alex on the other side didn't seem too shocked. She simply replied, "Let's talk about it when I reach Sovereign level."

"The dragon race, so they've had their eyes on me for a long time?"

But this was also good news. If the dragon race promised not to interfere, then Alex and Drake could be bolder in their development on the Mossvale Continent and no longer have to hold back.

Soon, Drake, having adjusted his mindset, reassigned tasks to his troops and changed his development strategy. This time, their development would be even more aggressive.

With everything in order, Drake entered the Portal of Transit and headed for the undead imperial capital.
