Two days passed by in the blink of an eye.
Since Lin Jin defeated the Golden Dragon King, his forces had grown immensely, and the Undead Army under his command was increasing rapidly. On most occasions, Usher, Letitia, and Nagath would explore the island, gather resources, and defeat wild monsters. Lin Jin would only personally intervene in combat when facing large waves of high-tier enemies.
Apart from a high-level Graveyard Town that he established earlier, Lin Jin had now set up two additional Graveyard Towns. One town was never enough; he would need at least one more to fortify his position. However, he wasn't as focused on the secondary towns. They were primarily meant to protect the main city and prepare for the future.
Meanwhile, Nagath was tasked with constructing Watch Towers. These towers could reveal the terrain and monitor whether other factions entered the area, serving as an early-warning system that would allow Lin Jin to prepare in advance.
Two days later
While exploring the island, Nagath brought a surprising report to Lin Jin—he had discovered a Prison.
A Prison was a place where heroes with grave offenses were imprisoned. Heroes who had committed serious crimes and were exiled from their race would end up in such a place. What made these heroes special was that they were often heirs to great powers or had made significant contributions to their race. Only these kinds of heroes could be exiled after committing wrongdoings.
If no one discovers the prison, these criminals remain imprisoned forever. Even if someone does find it, they must defeat the prison's guards to free the prisoners. Most people wouldn't be able to rescue the heroes inside.
"This island truly is full of surprises!" Lin Jin couldn't help but marvel as he saw the special marker for the Prison appear on the map in the Congress Hall.
Not only did this island have a Golden Dragon clan, but it also housed a Prison—a place for imprisoning special beings.
The heroes held inside these prisons were usually extraordinary figures. If Lin Jin could rescue one and gain their loyalty, it would be a tremendous reward.
But as Lin Jin thought about it, his expression turned cold.
He didn't believe in "loyalty" in this lifetime. The so-called Holy Light, with its pretentious grandeur, always made people let down their guard. The angels were always so willing to fight and die for you. But what happened in the end?
If both sides hadn't reached a crucial point, and if you still held value, they would indeed fight for you, follow your orders. However, the moment things changed, they wouldn't hesitate to stab you in the back.
In this life, Lin Jin trusted only what he could truly control!
If he couldn't control the hero's soul, he would rather kill them and turn them into Undead Heroes than leave them by his side.
With this resolve, Lin Jin summoned Usher and Letitia through the Congress to return with their high-tier forces.
Lin Jin had never personally attacked a Prison, but he knew that the heroes imprisoned there were at least Epic-level Heroes and that they would be heavily guarded. The troops stationed in these prisons were always powerful, well-trained, and formidable.
Soon after, Usher and Letitia returned with their high-tier soldiers, now mounted on Ghost Dragons. Their movement speed had greatly increased. After assembling the army, Lin Jin took command of the Ghost Dragons and left Letitia to guard the base.
With over 10,000 Undead troops now under his command, these forces had become an incredibly powerful army. Most of the island had been explored, and Lin Jin could clearly see the map now, confirming there was no other faction present.
The key Teleportation Gates were well-guarded, leaving no room for surprises.
Lin Jin mounted the Ghost Dragon King, and the massive creature's body soared through the skies with a roar, followed by eight Ghost Dragons. The sight was breathtaking.
After a short journey, Lin Jin arrived at the Prison.
Ding! You have discovered an ancient, sealed Prison, which may be holding a dangerous hero. If you rescue them, they might be willing to swear loyalty to you... but who knows?
"Who knows?" Lin Jin smirked and pushed open the gates of the prison.
As the gates creaked open, the world seemed to shift. Lin Jin and his troops appeared in a dark, damp underground space. The area was vast and wide, resembling a subterranean world.
Dark clouds gathered in the sky above. The ground trembled as waves of Cold Blood Cavalry rode in, each mounted on Raptors instead of regular warhorses. These Raptors were two-legged, carnivorous, feathered dinosaurs with sharp claws and fangs, looking highly menacing. These were 10th-tier units—Cold Blood Cavalry.
Though they appeared ferocious, they had relatively weak vitality, and their armor was not nearly as durable as that of traditional cavalry. The Cold Blood Cavalry might not be very strong individually, but their numbers were overwhelming—there were over 500 of them.
Ahead of them, Black Dragons, one of the strongest subraces of the Dragon Clan, soared through the air. Black Dragons were incredibly powerful, immune to low-level magic, and boasted immense attack power, defense, health, and speed. Among the highest-tier units, Black Dragons were an imposing force.
Behind the Black Dragons, there were 12th-tier Poison Scorpion Lions—a hybrid of bats, lions, and scorpions. Their venomous tails carried a paralyzing toxin that could immobilize their foes.
The sheer numbers were enough to make any commander tremble with despair.
To rescue the imprisoned heroes would not be an easy task. However, if this were the late-game, and a player pulled out all their cards, capturing this prison's guards could be possible.
In this world, as long as there were no Heroes guarding a place, most areas could be conquered.
