Pena stood on his 'throne' and watched the scene outside with the surveillance cara. To be honest, with the castle's decoration style that was leaning towards middle ages, it looked a bit strange for television to be placed in the hall like this.
But who made him need technology to check the outside world.
Seeing that there were many magic beasts that attacked the human's settlent aside from the castle, Pena was not surprised.
He had set up a lot of traps so that the magic beasts rushing over to the castle wouldn't be able to get out easily. Many of them died easily under his skeleton or under the traps that he had placed before.
Only the rank 7 magic beasts were a bit more troubleso, but it was not so unbearable.
"How annoying." Pena looked at the screen and then didn't bother to pay attention anymore. He knew very well that from the mont he decided to retreat and refused to fight these magic beasts to death, the higher ups in Continent X will definitely be angry with him.
But so what?
Pena is not a soldier nor is he their lackeys.
They agreed to give him resources and in return, Pena will tell them the thod to be necromancer along with so other knowledge. For this matter, Pena didn't care that much because the necromancer path is not exactly a secret.
However, only dark elent mages could possibly turn into a necromancer.
The problem is, there were not many people with dark and light elent, so Pena was not worried that he would have a lot of competitors.
It would be more important for him to deal with the rank 7 magic beasts in front of him.
He looked at the screen and saw that the people from the bases were cursing him, but Pena remained indifferent.
He didn't care too much about their lives and death.
If they were alive, he could make so deals with them to trade with resources and other things.
"PENAAA!"
Seeing that the base was about to be overrun with these rank 7 magic beasts, these people couldn't help it and scread even louder. However, they were separated by large distance and Pena was only watching it through their video call and enjoyed the scene where these magic beasts ca to the base.
Bang! Bang! Bang!
The soldiers were fighting desperately, trying their best to kill the magic beasts rushing over to them.
None of them were wiling to die.
They still wanted to live.
But they were too weak.
When the rank 7 magic beasts ca over, what awaited them was nothing more than a massacre as they couldn't defeat these magic beasts.
The leaders were desperate.
Even with their strong support to their soldiers, they couldn't compare with these returnees and without Pena helping them, it was impossible for them to hold on. After all, Pena was already a rank 7 and most of the magic beasts coming out of the cracks were rank 7 magic beasts.
They were far stronger than the soldiers.
"Heh." Pena chuckled and then took out a glass of wine from the table beside him. He has been living a comfortable life in this castle because his only task was to ditate and enjoy life.
The rest could be handed over to the skeletons.
After reaching rank 7, it would take a long ti for him to advance to rank 8 even if they were to turn around the entire Green Planet, so Pena planned to enjoy his life more.
As for the warning that the ssages give to him…
So what?
The second stage was nothing more than the second earthquake happened and countless rank 7 magic beasts co out to challenge them. For the returnees, these were nothing much and Pena felt that it was not that hard either.
As long as they focused on their own survival, they could definitely avoid the rampaging magic beasts and escaped.
Each and every single one of them knew very well that if they couldn't defeat their opponent, they could always run away.
As for the so called pride and reputation?
It was not as important as their lives.
For those who had fought on the frontline between life and death for such a long ti, they knew very well that the most important thing is to stay alive. So even if they looked cowardly, they would rather run away than to fight a losing battle.
These rank 7 magic beasts might look strong.
And the fact that they were chasing after the returnees were very annoying.
But if these returnees truly wanted to run away and avoid confrontation, could these magic beasts do anything to them?
Nothing.
They couldn't do anything.
Murin could still stay on his magic beast and watched these rank 7 magic beasts pouring out of the cracks while waiting for his magic beasts to recover. There were so occasional flying magic beasts coming out to challenge him, but they were dealt with easily.
Because they were weaker.
Pena was the sa.
He had build a castle and stayed in the center where he could ditate and continue to recover his mana to keep his skeleton army. As long as he had enough mana, he will not die.
It's as simple as that.
"Thank you for your sacrifice." Pena made the gesture of toasting with the wine glass. "Don't think badly of . You should have known from the beginning that as a necromancer, what I need is a lot of deaths and I don't care too much about the living."
The deaths were the resources he needed to make his army.
How could he not like it?
So even though the magic beasts' tide was troubleso and there were a lot of rank 7 magic beasts that could cause him trouble, Pena had no intention to step forward and help.
He didn't have such righteousness.
For him, even if the entire Green Planet were to be destroyed, it didn't matter either.
