Chapter 249 Controlling the Abyss: Issuing a Mobilization Order

........

The entire Sha Yuan trembled three times, and countless spies were dispatched because of the unusual activity in Sha Yuan!

The ancient capital's five legions, high-ranking mage corps, and newly formed elite battle squads... all immediately began regrouping according to drills already ingrained in their very being...

Inside the Abyss of Evil, Chu Ming, as the new 'King,' is worshipped by the eight deceased rulers!

"Is the title 'I am King' really appropriate?" Chu Ming asked curiously. Qin Shi Huang had just left, and already...

It feels like they're bullying a widow!

Okay, those people are all dead!

"Why not?" Queen Jiuyou asked curiously. "There can only be one emperor, but there can be several kings, right?"

The difference in meaning between ancient and modern surprised Chu Ming a little, but he understood it nonetheless!

According to the social hierarchy in ancient times, there was only one emperor, especially the First Emperor, but there were several kings!

"My King" is merely a subordinate's title for their own throne; it does not imply ownership.

"Alright!" Chu Ming rubbed his forehead with one hand. "I was just ignorant!"

He shifted the little Lingling in his arms to a more comfortable position, and the water throne beneath him suddenly crumbled like melting ice and snow, turning into thousands of water droplets that seeped into the blood crystal floor tiles.

Chu Ming also ascended the Blood Throne!

Lingling in my arms was dozing off, clutching a box of mints. Her eyelashes cast dappled shadows under her eyes, and the silver bells on her braids swayed gently with her breath.

As he carefully placed Lingling on his lap, Chu Ming raised an eyebrow slightly.

Before he could react, the Blood Throne had already extended dark gold vine-like patterns, forming a supporting curve at his lower back.

The moment I sat down, a cool sensation shot up from my tailbone to the back of my neck, like countless tiny vines crawling along my spine, and a tingling, numb feeling spread through every inch of the armor that touched my skin.

He flicked the armrest of the throne with his finger, and the blood-red crystal longsword suddenly hummed, its overflowing eerie light outlining intricate array patterns on the ground.

"Ugh..." Lingling mumbled as she snuggled into his arms, and only then did Chu Ming notice that the runes flowing across the surface of the Blood Throne were changing.

The originally flashy and incomprehensible array patterns gradually transformed into Qin Dynasty small seal script, with the eight characters "Received the mandate from Heaven, may your life be long and prosperous" faintly visible on the armrest.

He lightly touched one of the characters with his fingertip, and the entire Palace of the Dead suddenly trembled. Countless beams of light rose from the ground, projecting a three-dimensional map of the Abyss of Fiends into the air.

"This is..." Chu Ming's pupils contracted slightly as he looked at the flashing red dot on the map—a wandering, slumbering monarch-level undead.

He casually flicked his wrist, and the red dots in a certain area obediently gathered into an army formation. The skeleton warriors raised their rusty Qin crossbows and aimed them at the imaginary enemy in the void.

Further away, the forbidden wind beneath the Nine Deaths Bridge could transform into black mist that could penetrate the city walls at will, and he could sense the direction of every wisp of black wind with just his thoughts.

As if divinely inspired, Chu Ming zoomed in on the floating map.

The little hand poked at the area representing the ruins of the ancient capital. With a thought, Chu Ming magnified the map a hundredfold, making even the cracks on the broken walls clearly visible.

He could even "see" multiple high-level mages gathered on the city wall, their faces full of vigilance, because of the commotion in Sha Yuan!

"The Central Hub of the Abyss of Fiends..." Chu Ming murmured, a metallic taste rising in his throat—a sign that the throne was establishing a connection with him.

He tried to mobilize his power, and the same runes as the throne appeared in his left palm. He clenched his fingers in mid-air, and a small mountain a kilometer away collapsed with a roar. In the dust that rose up, a vengeful ghost that was devouring a corpse was crushed into dust.

A deep pulse emanated from the depths of the Blood Throne, gradually synchronizing with Chu Ming's heartbeat. He closed his eyes, feeling countless invisible threads extending from the throne to every corner of the Abyss of Fiends, as if an emperor held a thousand lifelines in his grasp.

When he opened his eyes again, ghostly flames danced in his pupils, and a contemptuous smile, identical to that of the ancient king, appeared on his lips—this was not overstepping his bounds, but truly becoming the ruler of this desolate realm.

"Nine Netherworlds, issue the order: assemble the troops!"

Chu Ming gently stroked Lingling's head, his voice carrying a majesty even he himself didn't recognize, "The undead, it's time for them to stir!"

A stagnant world is unsettling!

It felt like there was some kind of conspiracy plotting against me!

It's better to give them something to do!

Furthermore, for the undead, death and battle are like promotion and wealth for the living. Chu Ming has just ascended the throne, so why wouldn't he need a massive war to consolidate his position?

"Yes...~~" came the slightly surprised, melodious voice. Queen Jiuyou was extremely surprised. Was this new king so warlike?

I really, really love it!

The Mountain Corpse, Mist Demon Commander, Skeleton Bone Dragon, Ghost King, Red Skull Demon Lord, Agate Corpse Lord, White Corpse King, and the other monarchs were also very surprised. Are humans really that warlike?

However, the seven deceased kings all had a greater sense of trust in Chu Ming. His abilities had been recognized by the king, and his personality was not like that of Prince Fusu, who was "lenient with others but strict with himself." Excellent!

Commander of the Mist Ghosts, White Corpse King, and Agate Corpse Lord, please stay and guard the Abyss of Evil. The main camp cannot be left unattended!

"The Nine Netherworlds will serve as the central communication hub!"

┗|｀O′|┛Aww~~~·~~

Hmm~~~~~

Hehehe~~~~~

Whew~~~~~

The four Corpse Lords who were named immediately shouted, and all the undead in the entire Abyss of Evil could feel their boisterous joy!

Upon learning that war was about to break out, many of the undead who were still worried immediately shouted out!

In an instant, the deathly aura and resentment within Sha Yuan increased more than tenfold...

The ancient capital, already on high alert, has now confirmed that the undead are planning something big, and is accelerating its preparations for war!

Communication to the higher-ups of the Forbidden Spells Association for assistance is also on its way. The Qin family elders, the Li family elders, and others have been repeatedly visited by the city lord's men to inquire about the situation.

"Scott, forget it... Eliches (Grand Monarch-level Undead Vampire), Gekin (Grand Monarch-level Light and Shadow Wolf King), you two lead twenty Undead Vampires and Wolf Kings into the Abyss of Evil!"

Assist several deceased rulers in their conquests across the land, striving to get the dormant, rusty machinery of the empire running again as soon as possible!

"Yes, Master!" *22

Gekin was the most excited. After stepping down, he even proudly showed off to Eliches, as if to say, "Finally, it's our turn to shine as the Shadow Werewolves!"

Awoo~·~~

A straightforward werewolf is not suited to being a secret agent; the pain of battlefield combat is far superior!

"You brainless idiot!" Eliches didn't say it outright, but the fleeting sneer in his eyes was clearly seen by Ge Jin!

『........』

"As Your Majesty commands!" *8

Although the Eight Directions King knew that Chu Ming had mixed things up, he was still happy to accept it!

After all, it's like adding sand when the cake is being made bigger, so it's not hard to accept!

Moreover, the dead have indeed not fought properly for thousands of years. The dead kings and generals... some have left, some are asleep!

The current Sha Yuan is less than one-tenth of its former glory!

It is essential to replenish the army with fresh troops and rebuild the Sha Yuan army through battle and time!
