"What do you have to say?" Keen asked in a lowered voice while carrying Liya.

"Chief, they are very strong, they have such a big city." Liya turned to look at the Skeleton Knight and whispered in Keen's ear.

"City? Are these guys from the empire?" Keen asked thoughtfully.

In his impression, the cities on the grassland all belonged to the empire.

Only the orcs of the empire will build cities one after another on the grasslands and have the ability to protect the cities from falling.

Nomadic tribes like them have neither the ability to build cities nor the ability to protect them.

Liya shook her head and said, "I don't know, I haven't seen a lot of orcs in the city."

Not an empire.

The Empire is almost entirely composed of Orcs.

Keen has been to many cities in the empire, and in those cities, the number of orcs accounts for more than 90%.

He suddenly became curious about the undead tribe mentioned by the Skeleton Knight, and he wanted to know where these guys came from.

Putting Liya down, Keen raised his body, looked at the Skeleton Knight and said, "Even if we want to cooperate, we need the leaders of both parties to discuss it. With you alone, I cannot feel the sincerity of the Lord of the Undead. I need to see your

leader."

The Skeleton Knight paused for a moment, and then said, "Yes, we will come again later. At that time, you can send an envoy to follow us to our city."

Keen nodded and said, "Well, good, I will wait for you."

The skeleton knight pulled out the undead flag, turned and walked to the side of his mount, got on his horse, and returned with the other skeleton knights.

After the Skeleton Knight left, Keen returned with the warriors of the Taomas tribe. Of course, he did not forget to bring Liya with him. He also needed to know more about the undead from Liya's mouth.

A few days later.

The horn sounded again, and the undead came again.

With a few days of buffering, Keen seemed much calmer and led many soldiers to the last place.

After seeing the undead last time, he went back and asked Liya.

Liya did not hide anything and told Keen everything she saw and heard in the Fortress of the Undead.

She didn't stay in the Fortress of the Undead for long and didn't see much, but even so, the undead still left a strong impression on her.

That is simply not a force that the Taomas tribe can resist.

Originally, Liya thought that Chief Keen would not believe her words, but surprisingly, Keen did not have the slightest doubt.

As the chief of a tribe, Keen can learn more about the grassland.

He knew that the "Empire" had been fighting another powerful force recently.

From Liya's description, he was keenly aware that the undead seemed to be similar to members of that force.

If it's really as he guessed, then it's better not to offend him.

The Skeleton Knight did not dismount this time. Instead, he rode his Soul War Horse forward and asked condescendingly, "Chief Keen, we are here as promised. We will show you the way and let your envoy follow us."

Keen nodded.

This time he went to the city of the undead and decided to go there himself.

He can only believe it if he sees it with his own eyes.

In addition to Keen himself, there were five hundred fully equipped centaur warriors.

The envoy followed the Skeleton Knight across the grassland and headed to the Fortress of the Undead.

"Chief! Look, look over there! That's the city of the dead!"

Liya, the prairie cat girl riding on Keen's back, pointed into the distance and shouted excitedly.

Keen raised his head and looked far into the distance.

He saw a huge black shadow towering over the grassland.

That is a majestic city.

The distance was not close, but it still shocked Keen. The city was much larger than the imperial cities he had seen.

I'm afraid only the imperial capital can rival it, right?

Keane thought in his mind.

As the team approached the Fortress of the Undead, more and more undead appeared in the grass.

Most of the undead were on guard around them, while the rest were sent by Li Ziyu to greet them.

The Taomas tribe was the first force that Li Ziyu came into contact with on the grassland. He didn't want to give the other party a bad impression, and hoped to get some information about the grassland from the other party.

The undead on the road gave Keen a great shock.

The grassland tribes are different from the tribes over there in the wilderness.

In the wilderness, undead is synonymous with death and natural disasters, and all tribes will be afraid of the name of the undead.

But on the grassland, at least among the Taomas tribe, the names of the undead are not so scary.

This is determined by the survival mode of the grassland.

Although the products are much richer than the wasteland, there are also more battles than the wasteland.

Especially the nomadic tribes, they are at home all over the world and never settle in one place for too long.

They are not only tribes, but also caravans and robbers, and they are always ready to fight.

They don't have much time to worship their ancestors. Centaurs are impulsive and like to live in the present.

For the centaurs on the grassland, the future is far more worth thinking about than the past.

Following the Skeleton Knight, Keen and other centaurs entered the Fortress of the Undead.

Along the way, they were more and more surprised.

Undead, very strong.

So strong that it can easily crush their Taomas tribe.

It's not on the same scale at all.

After entering the Fortress of the Undead, Keen and his men were separated.

He could understand this. After all, he had brought five hundred centaur warriors. It was impossible to go together to meet the Lord of the Dead, right?

That's not realistic either.

As long as the other party is not a fool, he will not do this.

Five hundred centaur warriors can definitely launch a surprise attack.

As for whether they are worried about the undead killing them.

Hahaha... It's not necessary, really, it's not necessary.

If you want to kill them, the five hundred centaur warriors you brought will have no effect at all.

Needless to say, there were five hundred centaur warriors, even if the entire Taomas tribe rushed over, it would be useless. The opponent would use crushing force to beat them into pieces.

Keen still hasn't figured out why the other party chose him, and even took the initiative to send knights to cooperate with him.

Is there anything the Taumas tribe needs from the other side?

What do we have?

No matter how he thought about it, he didn't feel that the Taomas tribe had what the other party needed.

Is it possible that there is something special about me that makes such a big shot like me?

Keane was puzzled.

In order to show majesty and respect, Li Ziyu specially decorated a hall with a very undead style.

There are eight thick pillars in the hall made of stacked skulls, and the surrounding walls are also covered with bones. Well, it is a typical underground tomb style, or the kind of mass burial.

Close to the wall, rows of elite heavy hammer skeleton warriors stood upright, looking very brave.

The floor leading inside was covered with carpet, which Zhang Peng obtained from other time traveler lords.

On both sides of the carpet, black warriors stood quietly like armor on display. At the end was a platform built of stone barriers, with a bone throne placed on it.

The style is simple, but serious enough and scary enough.

Xiang Keen, an aboriginal who has never seen the world, was startled by the undead on both sides as soon as he entered the hall.

He looked at the undead on both sides in confusion.

"please."

Meng Ni bowed slightly and extended her hand.

Keen concentrated his mind, and his evaluation of the undead increased a few points. He moved forward along the carpet, his eyes scanning the black warriors on both sides from time to time.

He had a feeling that the armor on both sides was alive, and the combat effectiveness of these guys should not be weaker than the skeleton knights he had seen before.
To be continued...
