105: In the final round of Chapter 105, is there only one enemy?
When the final round of the Undead Legion's battle began, the sound of a bell rang out from the ten-thousand-meter-tall Gate of White Bone.
This tolling bell seemed to be a death knell for the human race, as an eerie aura began to permeate the entire battlefield.
Lords such as Xu Xuan, Zhou Wu, Zhou Mei, Miyamoto Takeshi, Li Shunyao, Jack, and William were all closely watching that gate.
For this final round of the offensive, the system had provided no advance notice, and no one knew what would emerge from within.
All the lords were on edge, staring at the gate.
Amidst this tense atmosphere, a woman dressed in a black robe walked out from the ten-thousand-meter-tall Gate of White Bone.
Hmm?
After waiting for so long, no one expected that the final wave of the Undead Legion's offensive would consist of only one person.
One person?
Just one person?
On the high tower, Xu Xuan's eyes gradually narrowed. "The opponent sent only one person; something doesn't feel right."
Unlike the overwhelming undead army everyone had imagined for the final round, the one who appeared was actually a woman wrapped in a black robe, her face hidden in the shadows.
Moreover, her figure was quite petite, making it clear at a glance that she was a girl.
The fact that there was only one opponent actually made everyone hesitate to act rashly.
A single person!
This effect was comparable to the Empty Fort Strategy; even though they knew there was only one opponent, no one dared to be the first to step forward.

[Miyamoto Takeshi: Just one person, how suspicious!]
[Li Shunyao: Charge, brothers! There's only one of them. Capture her and complete this Human Race Defense War.]
[Zhou Mei: Why aren't you charging? You're shouting so enthusiastically, just trying to get others to step on a landmine, aren't you?]
[Jack: How about we go together? We have to fight anyway. Can someone brave step up and send a squad of soldiers to test the waters?]
[William: Come on! For the sake of fairness, let's each send one soldier to test it out.]
[Zhou Wu: Fine!]
After all, any sane person would know that if only one enemy appeared in the final round, it meant that enemy was absolutely powerful—powerful enough to replace an army of millions.
But no one wanted to risk their own soldiers, so they could only drag everyone in together to share the potential losses.
Over ninety lords each dispatched a member of a suicide squad, gathering these soldiers together to probe the woman's strength.
These selected soldiers turned pale, but under their lords' orders, they could only steel themselves and march forward.
Soldiers from various nations walked side by side, holding shields and spears as they cautiously advanced across the Void Road-Bridge to the front of the ten-thousand-meter-tall Gate of White Bone.
The black-robed woman remained motionless, watching their performance.
Then, bursts of chilling sneers rang out.
"I am but one person, yet I have you all so terrified you dare not even breathe loudly. Are these the so-called Top 100 of the human race?"
When she spoke, the young woman's voice was filled with unrestrained mockery.
This could be considered her regaining face for the Necromancer God Lord. Behind her, by the ten-thousand-meter-tall Gate of White Bone that pierced the clouds, the Necromancer God Lord watched everything with great satisfaction.
He had finally managed to turn the tables in front of the myriad races and gained quite a bit of prestige.
Look at these humans, utterly terrified by a single person he had dispatched.
Sitting upon his Divine Bone Throne, the Necromancer God Lord laughed loudly. "Good! Excellent! This deity need only send one god to intimidate these human scoundrels into silence."
Now, he could finally hold his head high before the gods of the myriad races and reclaim the face he had lost before.
Back on the battlefield, ninety-eight soldiers had arrived before the black-robed young woman.
They summoned their courage, seeing that the black-robed girl had made no move for quite some time.
And so...
A brave soldier raised his spear and thrust it fiercely at the black-robed girl.
As the weapon struck, he could clearly feel the resistance; the spear had already pierced into the girl's flesh.
The girl, impaled by the spear, broke into a strange smile.
"It's been so long since I've felt pain. Is this what it feels like to have one's divine power bound by the laws and return to a mortal body?"
The black-robed girl laughed morbidly. She loved pain and hadn't experienced the sensation of it for countless years.
Pain brought her spiritual pleasure; it was a wonderful feeling that she indulged in.
Seeing the black-robed girl smiling morbidly even as she was being stabbed, the soldiers were terrified.
"Madwoman..."
"Witch!!"
"This girl is insane!"
Soldiers from different factions were all frightened by the girl's behavior.
But they were soldiers; gritting their teeth, they raised their pikes and spears and stabbed forward ruthlessly.
Countless weapons pierced through the girl's body, and she began to uncontrollably cough up blood. It looked as though she might die at any moment.
This scene left Xu Xuan, atop the high tower, feeling confused.
"What on earth is the Necromancer God Lord doing? Grand Preceptor Wen, everyone, do you understand this?"
Xu Xuan tried to ask these experienced divine generals, but Grand Preceptor Wen, Su Daji, Chi You, Nvba, and the others were also unable to comprehend it.
Grand Preceptor Wen cupped his hands and reported, "My King, this old official is not familiar with the methods of these Outer-realm Evil Gods."
Su Daji's brows furrowed as she explained, "My King, their Cultivation System is different from ours."
After all, these people weren't from Earth, so they really couldn't understand what was going on.
Seeing that the girl had been riddled with countless blades and spears, she collapsed into a pool of blood, covered in gore.
Is the third round... really going to end just like this?
Looking at the black-robed girl lying in a pool of blood, one could imagine her body was full of holes if it weren't for the robe covering her.
It had to be said that the quality of her black robe was miraculous; no matter how it was cut, not a single hole appeared.
As the soldiers panted, watching the girl lying in the pool of blood.
The girl seemed to have stopped breathing. It appeared the soldiers had completed their mission and ended the Undead Legion's final offensive.
However...
The girl's body suddenly began to twitch and contort in a strange manner until finally...
Bang!!!
The girl's corpse suddenly exploded, turning into a mist of blood that sprayed all over the faces of the ninety-eight soldiers present.
The soldiers, their faces covered in blood, looked stunned, unable to understand why the corpse had suddenly exploded.
However...
At that moment, the soldiers suddenly cried out in pain, clutching their necks.
It was as if something was burrowing into their bodies. These soldiers wailed and screamed, reaching out toward the distance. "My King, save... save me."
In just a few seconds, all of these soldiers collapsed, their vital signs vanishing.
Seeing this, Xu Xuan, atop the high tower, had a faint sense of foreboding.
Soon, the fallen soldiers rose once more. Their bodies began to rot, and their skin started to peel off, transforming them into terrifying zombie-like monsters.
In the next instant, these mutated soldiers howled and charged back.
