Chapter 385 - 385: Death Dragon
Everyone dispersed, resuming their duties as instructed by Alex.
Xiao Hui, finally relieved of her administrative burdens, could now leave the undead Imperial Capital. She much preferred slaying enemies to managing the undead empire.
Soon, only Alex and Sophie remained in the vast undead empire.
"You've done an excellent job during my absence. Thank you for your hard work."
Alex turned to Sophie, the woman who had been instrumental in her early development. They had, in a way, helped each other succeed.
Without Sophie, Alex wouldn't have progressed so quickly. Similarly, if Sophie hadn't pledged allegiance to Alex, her corpse would likely have rotted away by now.
"Big Shot, please don't say that. It's my duty. I know I don't have extraordinary talent or powerful troops. This is all I can do."
Sophie smiled sincerely. She was content with simply surviving in this world, and surviving well.
"Come, let's take a look at that new fusion technique. Your idea is quite intriguing. It might actually work."
Alex led Sophie towards the outer city. She had already inspected the other fused undead troops, and the results were impressive.
Transforming them into magic circles allowed the alchemy warlocks to deploy them anywhere, eliminating the need to return to the undead Imperial Capital for fusion. It was incredibly convenient.
The previous fusion techniques hadn't posed any significant challenges. However, when Alex saw the bone dragon and ghost dragon fusion technique, she paused.
She could tell at a glance that this was beyond Sophie's current capabilities. Yet, significant progress had been made.
"Hehe, I wanted to surprise you, but my abilities are limited, so the re
The Death Dragon was larger than a normal bone dragon, comparable in size to Arthur. Unlike both bone dragons and ghost dragons, it possessed flesh and blood.
Its black flesh was covered in pitch-black scales. If not for the eerie blue glow emanating from its eyes, one might mistake it for a living creature.
Rows of white bone spikes ran along its broad back, culminating in a tail tipped with black flames. Its massive black wings, when unfurled, blotted out the sun.
"Great Queen, I am your eternally loyal servant."
The Death Dragon was an intelligent creature, a King level being born from the fusion of several Monarch level bone dragons and ghost dragons. Its abilities were undoubtedly complex and diverse.
"Death Dragon, unleash your strongest attack towards the sky."
The best test was to have the Death Dragon demonstrate its power. Alex issued the command, and the creature, after letting out a deafening roar, soared into the sky, circling above them.
Its scales shifted, and a surge of black energy coursed through its body, rising from its abdomen to its head.
"Roar!"
A terrifying roar ripped through the air, followed by a massive black dragon breath that shot skyward, forming a pillar of darkness.
The sheer force of it sent Sophie's hair flying. She stared at the Death Dragon in awe.
After several seconds, the dragon breath dissipated. Alex had personally witnessed the terrifying power of this attack.
No King level creature would dare to withstand such a blast.
"It's amazing! We did it!"
Sophie was ecstatic. She had witnessed countless undead fusions, but this Death Dragon was undoubtedly the most powerful.
"Indeed. I'll leave the rest of the fusion process to you. I have a small matter to attend to."
Alex sensed a peculiar aura. A cold smile spread across her face as she turned and left the outer city, heading towards the Dark Forest beyond.
