The Scourge of the Undead: Starting with Building Monster Farms

Chapter 15 Your monsters are indeed strong, but what can they do against my mechanics?

Eris Wayne sat upon the bone throne he had meticulously crafted for himself.

A huge fused monster guarded his side, and at his feet was a green mutated monster, which was only slightly larger than the upper-arm monster that Su He had destroyed, but otherwise there was no special difference between them.

"I'm sorry, my king, but a group of vile creatures are blocking our way in that area."

"I sent my brothers, and they went, but they died in battle and eventually disappeared, leaving only scraps of flesh."

The mutated monster spoke with a stutter, and its mouth was full of mucus, making its voice difficult to recognize.

Eris Wayne frowned. As the master of these monsters, he could learn their thoughts by establishing a connection with them.

However, although this monster can speak some simple words, it is not very intelligent, and the information it can provide is rather fragmented.

Faced with an unknown enemy, Eris Wayne needed more detailed information, so he simply extinguished the last bit of intelligence in the monster's mind.

Fragments of memories about the Minecraft blocks gradually entered his mind.

"Green grass? I can't believe I've found something like that in this dark forest."

"Why do they look so strange? Why are they all so...square?"

Stripped of its intelligence, the mutated monster's body lay sprawled on the ground like mud.

After obtaining the information about the MC block, Eris Wayne tapped the surface of the crystal ball with the bone finger of his right hand.

As deep purple magical runes appeared, the mutated monster was first magically molded into a ball.

Bones from various indistinguishable creatures pierced its skin.

After a thorough rubbing, a monster covered in bone spurs and dripping with green pus and blood appeared.

Aside from being smaller than before, the resurrected monsters are noticeably stronger.

Wyn descended from his throne, and the newborn monster cautiously made way for its master.

Not far from the throne was a huge graveyard, where many ordinary zombie servants were constantly transporting corpses.

The cemetery's fence is also made of the bones of various creatures, which are pieced together and fused together, with huge bony spikes extending straight to the top of the cemetery's center.

At the very center of the graveyard, a green gem floats in the air, emitting an eerie light and constantly transforming the corpses within into hideous monsters.

When Eris Wayne arrived at the graveyard, he manipulated the zombies around him, who had been working as laborers, to stop what they were doing.

The zombies moved toward the center of the graveyard, one by one, in a daze.

When these zombies emerged from the graveyard again, they had transformed into brand-new, mutated zombies covered in bony spikes.

"These guys are all yours. Go back to that area and see if they can get in if they're still blocked from entering this time."

"Then you can stay there with them and never come back."

The newly mutated monster was clearly more intelligent than before, and when faced with the pressure exerted by its master, it even showed a fear-like emotion on its face.

Watching the mutated monster leave with its new monster army, Wayne gave another order to the fused monsters behind him.

"You, go with them this time. If you can help, then help out. If not, come back and report immediately."

"Remember, try to get as much information as possible."

Upon hearing its master's command, the giant fusion monster silently headed in the direction the mutated monster had left.

Having arranged everything, Eris Wayne returned to his throne.

In fact, if you look at it from a holistic perspective, this necromancer who called himself a king and even built himself a throne didn't actually have a very large kingdom.

In terms of infrastructure, it is even smaller than the base developed by Suhe.

The surface of the amethyst sphere reflected the face of the blue fire skull. Looking at his "skinny" appearance, Eris Wayne recalled his former self.

At that time, he had a handsome face, a vast fortune, and countless beautiful women.

Now, he can only sit on a cold, bone throne, his imagined kingdom not even in its infancy.

"Recently, my soul fire has been fluctuating frequently, giving me a bad feeling."

"Is this feeling coming from that strange place, or from you... Bruce?"

Eris Wayne gazed into the distance of the dark forest, where fragments of his soul should still remain, at the spot where he was killed by the adventurer party.

If his enemies knew he would become an undead creature and were determined to find him, they could definitely locate him using those soul fragments.

Fortunately, the Dark Forest was far from where his enemies were, and he still had considerable confidence in the location he had chosen for himself in his previous life.

The biggest threat he faces now comes from his unknown neighbor.

Eris Wayne did not find Su He's appearance in the mutated monster's memories, but he did learn some information about the creatures in Minecraft.

Whether in his life or in death, he, a necromancer in both lifetimes, had never seen such a monster.

Although the undead creatures created by necromancers are all sorts of strange and wonderful things,

But this was the first time Eris Wayne had ever seen a monster like this, where attacks left no trace of injury and the monster simply turned into white smoke after death, leaving no trace of its body.

A sharp blade is not enough to cut their bodies, and acid cannot corrode their parts.

It seems that as long as it doesn't die, this monster's condition will always be at its best.

"Perhaps I should go and capture one of these monsters myself and study it carefully?"

After the idea suddenly popped into Wayne's mind, he quickly dismissed it.

As a fragile necromancer, the lessons he learned in his previous life reminded him that it was best not to do so.

The most sensible thing a necromancer can do is to continuously produce all kinds of undead armies in the rear and use them to overwhelm their enemies.

Although this prevents me from unleashing my full potential, it's still better than the opponent discovering me and giving me away my life for nothing.

After some deliberation, Eris Wayne finally assigned the task to his strongest servant.

The safest approach at present is to assess the relative strength of the opposing forces, as it is impossible to determine the exact difference in power between them.

The soul fire in the blue flame skull's eye sockets seemed to have a hint of restlessness.

"I've already fallen to this state, am I really going to have to move because of this strange neighbor?"

-

Meanwhile, darkness had enveloped Su He's territory, and this was the perfect time for his monster army to unleash its full power.

Zombies from outside frequently invade our territory. In order to deal with these monsters more effectively,

Su He specially dug a simple moat, three blocks wide and four blocks deep, with water constantly rushing downwards above.

These endless streams of water, constantly scouring the monsters from the outside world, combined with ranged attacks, make it virtually impossible for the monsters to advance.

The monsters couldn't understand why the flowing water had such a strong thrust; if they were even slightly slow, they would be pushed a distance downstream.

If Su He could know the questions in the minds of these monsters, even if the monsters threw the questions at him, he could only say that he had no solution.

That's just how things work on his turf.
