Milan City.
This was another city state in the Dragon Bone Wilderness that refused to submit to the great Silver Dragon Lord, and it was located not far from Black Gold City.
They had already learned that Black Gold City had been wiped out by a group of undead.
Before they could figure out how to deal with the undead army, the Soaring Dragon Legion had already attacked.
Originally, they wanted to negotiate for a little time, but Gaz didn’t have time to waste with them this time.
After the Fireball Clan’s Ogre Mages dug open numerous holes under their city wall, the dense group finally realized who they were dealing with.
But before they could raise a white flag, the city state was already overwhelmed by the frenzied monsters of the Soaring Dragon Legion.
Time was of the essence, and Gaz didn’t have the time or energy to divide a group of monsters to bring the possible rebelling captives all the way back to the distant Nolan Forest.
Simply put, it was much simpler and quicker to just kill them all.
Gaz had never been a soft-hearted person.
After everyone in Milan City was wiped out, the place was burned to the ground.
After that, many more city states suffered the same fate as Milan City.
When they faced their final moments, they finally understood how foolish their previous choices were.
However, there are always exceptions.
At the moment, Gaz was leading the Soaring Dragon Legion towards Kama City, a city state not much different in scale from Milan City.
But when they arrived, the city gates were wide open, and waves of deathly aura continuously seeped outward.
Feeling the ominous and filthy air, Gaz furrowed his brow.
He knew that it was not just the Soaring Dragon Legion which had started attacking these city states, but also the undead.
As for Kama City, they were too late.
Soon, the Hawkman Scout flying in the sky landed and reported what she saw to Gaz.
As expected, Kama City had already been destroyed by the undead.
Not only that, but this place had become a natural undead transformation field.
Countless corpses were piled up in the central square, and various undead creatures slowly emerged from the mountains of corpses and seas of blood.
As time went on, the undead creatures transformed here would only become more numerous.
No matter how you looked at it, this place couldn’t be left as it was!
So, with Gaz’s command, the Chimera with a Red Dragon head flew towards the sky above Kama City.
On their backs, almost every one of them was carrying a Fireball Clan Ogre Mage.
Under the onslaught of surging fan-shaped flames and fireballs, Kama City was instantly surrounded by intense heat.
The central square where countless corpses were piled up was of course the primary target, and numerous untransformed corpses were burned to ashes in the flames.
At the same time, some undead who had successfully completed the transformation staggered through the sea of fire and charged at the Soaring Dragon Legion with a roar.
Of course, their inevitable fate was being easily torn apart by various monsters.
Most of them were just low-level undead creatures that had recently transformed, and they couldn’t put any pressure on the Soaring Dragon Legion at all.
After the entire Kama City was cleaned up, Gaz’s expression became even graver.
Kama City was not particularly important, but what concerned him was that there were undoubtedly more city states that suffered the same fate as Kama City.
From then on, the Soaring Dragon Legion was always on the move at a fast pace.
For most monsters, as long as there were battles to fight and food to eat, their morale wouldn’t be a problem.
Just as Gaz had thought, in their following journey, most of the city states the Soaring Dragon Legion encountered were no different from Kama City.
After purifying the city states that had become undead transformation fields, the Soaring Dragon Legion finally encountered a slightly different city state.
If Gaz remembered correctly, this city state was marked as Black River City on the map because it had been deliberately built within a winding Black River Canal.
The Black River had become a natural moat for Black River City, and it was said that the bizarre Black River could even be ignited directly!
But now, the seemingly magical Black River was not the focus; instead, it was that Black River City was currently battling a staggering number of undead troops.
Black River City’s defenses weren’t particularly strong, but thanks to the magical Black River, they were relatively safe for the time being.
Ordinary undead creatures could hardly forcibly cross the viscous and fast-flowing Black River. Occasionally, one or two skeletons or zombies would make it across, but they would be surrounded and torn apart by the Black River City’s defenders.
The biggest threat to Black River City were flying undead creatures such as Gargoyles and Skeleton Griffins.
Fortunately, the power of undead creatures generally declined significantly compared to their previous lives, so as long as a large number of archers and spellcasters were dedicated to dealing with them, Black River City would not be at risk of collapse in the short term.
At the same time, Gaz did not rush to participate in the battle immediately but instead took out the map and examined it carefully.
“It seems that Black River City is the only city state nearby that hasn’t been destroyed by the undead!”
Although Black River City’s defenses were average, based on its unique geographical location, it was definitely the hardest city state to invade in the surrounding area.
No matter how you looked at it, this place should be left for last.
In addition, if the Soaring Dragon Legion continued to push forward, they might also become more dangerous.
That’s because, beyond Black River City, there wasn’t much distance left to Black Gold City.
Avoiding direct confrontation with the undead army there was one of the tasks the mighty Silver Dragon Lord had instructed.
However, the undead outside Black River City seemed to be edible as well!
Anyway, reducing the number of undead in the Dragon Bone Wilderness as much as possible would be a good thing.
And so, with Gaz’s command, the Soaring Dragon Legion began to fiercely charge into the undead.
As the commotion of the charge was felt behind them, a Black Knight on a skeleton warhorse slowly turned its body and put the head that was hanging at its waist back onto its shoulders.
Embedded within the dry, withered face hidden under the dark helmet, two gloomy ghostly fires danced furiously.
He was the very Black Knight Landry who had captured Black Gold City for the Death Lord.
Without hearing any orders, the undead centered on the Black Knight slowly changed direction and marched towards the oncoming Soaring Dragon Legion.
Black Knight Landry, mounted on his skeleton warhorse, charged at the front of the formation and soon faced off against Gaz, who was riding a Warg.
In the piercing sound of metal collision, the two exchanged positions amid sparks from weapon clashes.
Just after a brief encounter, both sides knew that they were facing a powerful opponent.
But I must be stronger!
This was the thought in both Landry and Gaz’s hearts.
