[Night retreats, dawn arrives!]
The next morning, Alex woke up from her sleep.
Although the protective barrier had disappeared, the presence of the Specter Chandelier, along with the guard of her undead army, ant she wasn't overly worried, such as fearing sleeplessness.
It might also be the calming effect of the bedroom. As the saying goes, the most dangerous places are often the safest.
Frostwind Snowy Mountain and Dark Forest are both dangerous, which paradoxically makes Alex's location between them quite safe.
Alex jumped out of bed, took her ti choosing her outfit, and decided to start the beautiful day by dressing up.
She chose a crop top white shirt paired with a strapless invisible bra, which made her breasts look even larger. She felt her breast size had increased by a size, though it was a bit tight, probably due to the push-up effect.
For the bottom, she selected a black micro skirt, paired with plain white socks and cute little leather boots.
After getting dressed, Alex prepared to check the supplies near the castle. Glancing down at her outfit, she noted humorously that her large breasts almost blocked her view of her feet.
Alex teleported to the wall using dark magic, collecting the stone and wood from the castle along the way, netting 3k wood and 2k stone.
During the day, Alex could see the entire battlefield below the wall more clearly.
John had already led the skeleton army back, and the bodies were piled on the other side. The ground was littered with various limbs and entrails of wild beasts, the bodies already stacked together by the undead, but the severed limbs and spilled guts still remained on the battlefield.
The ground was stained red and green, likely from the beasts' blood. However, this scene was much milder compared to other Lords'.
After all, in Alex's undead army, only skeletons, zombies, and gargoyles directly tore apart and chopped up enemies.
Specters, ghost dragons, and death conquerors mostly killed enemies with curses and soul attacks, leaving intact bodies, so it wasn't as bloody. Even the bone dragons burned the beasts to a crisp.
After a night of continuous summoning by the necromancers, three thousand beast bodies had been summoned, of various levels.
These bodies piled up under the wall were an eyesore, so Alex chose to Disassemble them, gaining 1200 magic crystals, 5k food, 1k elite food, and 500 Essence Shards.
Looking at these dropped resources, Alex felt sowhat disheartened.
The beast tide had arrived at midnight, but there was no double drop! It seed that the newbie protection period had ended, and the normal conditions had resud after seven nights, with all wild monster kills no longer offering double drops.
Wait, she distinctly rembered getting double experience last night when killing that ice bear! Alex opened the system dashboard, and indeed there was an announcent:
[Congratulations to the Lords for successfully surviving the beast tide, officially starting the All-Races Battle Royale journey!]
[From the eighth day onwards, the double drop from night beasts will change to normal drops, but the double attribute enhancent and double experience drop will still be retained (only effective against beasts below Monarch level).]
Damn, Alex thought she was going to make a fortune with so many beasts yielding a large amount of magic crystals and Essence Shards. Instead, the benefits were halved.
Fortunately, the double experience was still there. As for the settings below Monarch level, with Alex's current capabilities, she didn't need to worry about it.
Alex thought about it; indeed, the surviving Lords wouldn't necessarily kill all the beasts during the beast tide, but they would at least hold out until the end of the beast tide. By then, every Lord would definitely have magic crystals and Essence Shards, which would severely depreciate in value.
With the end of the beast tide, all Lords' strengths would rapidly develop. There were still seven thousand bodies left, and the necromancers could likely finish summoning them within a day and night, which was quite fast.
"Hey, John actually made it to Commanding level, sweet."
[Skeleton King (John)]
[Race: undead race]
[Loyalty: 100% (Never Betray)]
[Life Tier: Commanding level]
[Level: lv1 (can be increased by killing enemies)]
[Health Points: Undead trait, immortal as long as the soul fire burns]
[Mana Points: 150]
[Strength: 120 10]
[Stamina: ∞]
[Agility: 80 10]
[Maximum Growth: Divine level]
[Active Skill: Skeleton Fall, Soul Siphon]
[Passive Skill: Breakthrough, King's Glory]
King's Glory: Skeletons fighting alongside the Skeleton King gain 5 to all attributes and faster reassembly.
Although the description is simple, it's a powerful supportive enhancent skill.
Skeletons' maximum level is only Commanding, so a comprehensive increase of five points in attributes is quite significant.
Moreover, as long as John is nearby, this skill is always active. John is increasingly resembling a general.
Alex also checked the other undead; most of the skeletons that could level up had done so, and the bone dragons had reached level 7. Most of the other undead were no longer upgradable.
What was thought to be the weakest, the Skeleton Soldier, had beco the strongest force in Alex's undead army since John was summoned.
The zombie titan had also reached level 8 overnight; just killing one high-level beast, along with the double experience, allowed for rapid level advancent. Early stages level up quickly, but it slows down later—there won't be a second beast tide.
At that mont, Alex saw a specter flying back towards the castle.
This one had returned from the snowy mountain, and Alex knew without thinking that it was bringing a ssage.
Alex prepared to return to the castle, as watching a bunch of corpses wasn't particularly interesting. She teleported back inside using magic and approached the specter.
"Respected Queen, the gargoyles have located the castle of those vampires."
Lucian's vampires, of course, couldn't find Alex's castle, as the Specter Chandelier is not just for show. Without Monarch level strength, the concealnt effect cannot be penetrated.
Instead, it was the encounters of the vampires and gargoyles on Frostwind Snowy Mountain that completely exposed Lucian's vampire castle to Alex's field of vision.
