Global Game: I, the Necromancer, am the scourge

Nearing several key areas within Tokyo City, I found that if they weren't heavily guarded, they were breeding grounds for ghost creatures.

This situation had Zi Liyuan scratching his head, while at the same time, he was utterly speechless about the Wokou people.

Those Wokou who liked to rear Shikigami truly disregarded the lives of ordinary professionals.

Within Tokyo City, there were no fewer than three large ghost creature breeding sites: one next to the Dog Emperor's palace, one inside the Yin Yang Holy Palace, and one was the Yasukuni Divine Latrine.

In addition to these, there were even more small-scale ghost rearing sites. Virtually all places like temples and shrines kept a certain number of ghost creatures.

"Such an odd social structure, members of great clans and prestigious families seldom have strengths below Second Order, yet most ordinary professionals can hardly reach Second Order, typically being of First Order quality."

Tokyo was the capital of the plaster nation with a population of several tens of millions. After infiltrating, Zi Liyuan took Dailisi to many places to check them out.

He also paid attention to the professionals within Tokyo City; ordinary professionals in popular professions generally had very low strength, rarely reaching Second Order.

In contrast, the offspring of nobility, even those in non-combat professions, could reach Second Order strength.

It could be said that within the plaster nation, the great clans controlled most of the nation's resources.

The path to advancement for ordinary professionals was essentially blocked, unless you awakened to a special profession, which would then draw attention from above and provide access to many resources for cultivation.

However, during the cultivation process, one would be brainwashed, instilled with the idea of loyalty to a certain power, and in the end, very likely become a tool for that power, finding it hard to break free for a lifetime.

In the chaotic Tokyo City, Zi Liyuan and Dailisi saw many nobility's offspring with entourages.

As for the officials of Tokyo City, they were even more difficult for him to deal with.

Anyone with a slight bit of power started out protected by personnel, not to mention that their own strengths were not weak, and they had some kind of item that evaded the city's rule suppression.

They could use skills, equip gear, items, and scrolls normally within Tokyo City!

"Damn it, no wonder the people from the Coalition of Nations, when creating trouble in the Great Xia Empire and attacking cities, always look for inside help to coordinate."

Without internal collusion, trying to make trouble in a big city becomes vastly more difficult, and just avoiding the suppression of the city's rules is a major problem.

For a moment, Zi Liyuan was going crazy, truly at his wits' end, as his preemptive plan was almost completely foiled.

"Master, under these circumstances, we can only wait until the Undead attack the city to fish in troubled waters, and even then, the difficulty will be immense," Dailisi said.

Dailisi had participated in all aspects of Zi Liyuan's plan, but within Tokyo City, besides familiarizing themselves with some of the layout and terrain, they could only clarify some garrison information.

The defense map of Tokyo City provided by Yamamoto Kazuo and Gill had issues, but the emergence of the calamity of the Undead also made the entire city impose martial law, which was one of the problems.

This made it nearly impossible for him to make some early arrangements within the city.

As for a frontal assault, that was no different from seeking death.

In several places they had explored within Tokyo City, not only did Zi Liyuan sense danger, but so did Dailisi.

Keep in mind, she had evolved into the Black Dragon King, a genuine Epic Boss template; taking her life would not be easy.

But in those places heavily guarded or breeding ghost creatures, she felt a deadly threat just the same.

This wait lasted another five days, and the Undead army finally made its way to the outskirts of Tokyo City.

The hordes of Undead creatures gathered together, their aura of death hitting one in the face, with a layer of dark clouds looming over the heads of the Undead.

Tokyo City, having been ready for some time, had activated its city's protective enchantments, and the city walls were already filled with troops.

Moreover, many mages hastily conscripted from different professions formed huge formations, waiting for the person in charge to give the command, ready for a combined casting spell.

These temporarily conscripted mages, allocated according to their attributes, were grouped together, but these conscripted Wokou people had generally low levels, hanging between First Order and Second Order, with very few breaking through to Third Order.

Zi Liyuan hid in a dark corner of a building, taking in the defensive arrangements near the western city wall of Tokyo City.

He was calculating where to create an opening.

At that moment outside Tokyo City, the Undead army had begun its assault, incessantly, like a tide, crashing against the city walls.

Yet the densely packed creatures, as soon as they reached fifty meters from the wall, were blocked by a protective barrier, inverted like a huge bowl, stopping them from making any advance.

The daunting protection of Tokyo City's enchantments was undeniable, but it couldn't withstand the assault of a mass of Undead.

Each attack by an Undead creature, even if it only drained a tiny bit of the barrier's energy, could not endure the onslaught of such a multitude.

After hundreds of millions of Undead creatures began battering the barrier, the transparent barrier close to the ground finally began to shatter bit by bit, breaking up into pieces, and eventually turning into gaping holes.

The repair capabilities of the protective barrier were formidable, but they couldn't keep up with the speed of the attacks from too many Undead, quickly depleting its energy.

In less than half an hour, the barrier near the ground had been broken into fragments, then the Undead poured in, starting to cause damage to the majestic city walls.

Of course, the Wokou would not just idly watch as the Undead battered the barrier and walls; a variety of long-range attacks were flung madly at the throngs of Undead outside the city as if they cost nothing.
