Global Composite Master: Compositing an Undead Army from the Start

Chapter 493: Chapter 256: Eternal Night Evil-Gathering Array! (Five in One)_1

At this moment, the people of the Yongming Star System were still quite excited. They had finally gathered some information about this aberration from Earth and had a rough idea of why he was so abnormal. Anyone with a large group of underlings three tiers higher than themselves could easily sweep through all same-tier opponents. Even fighting opponents one or two tiers higher wouldn’t be much of a problem. This made the events in the survival game far more understandable. The only puzzling thing remaining was how he had obtained this power.

After all, he was only at his first-transition. On their side, even after paying the immense price of using curse demonization, they had only managed to raise the attributes of their own first-transition members to around the fourth-transition level. He, however, had survived safely from the beginning of the survival game until now. This meant his strength was permanent. Possessing such permanent and abnormal strength was simply outrageous.

Once the Yongming Star System learned about the absurdity of Chen Mo’s summoned creatures, they immediately began to devise ways to counter this aspect. Sometimes, knowing an enemy’s abilities—but not in detail—could pose a significant problem.

Most of the combat power Chen Mo had displayed so far indeed came from his summoned creatures. But in reality, even if his summoned creatures were restricted, his own combat power wouldn’t be inferior. The most crucial point, however, was Chen Mo’s divine stealth ability. This ability was potent enough to turn the tide of battle. If the enemy didn’t know about it and couldn’t counter it, Chen Mo would be invincible. The divine stealth effect of the Divine Stealth Box was genuine: invisibility equaled invincibility!

When they first entered the Savage Ancient Forest, Chen Mo had initially planned to rely on the Divine Stealth Box to get everyone through safely. Unfortunately, the Savage Ancient Forest had some profound peculiarities; it was unknown how much power the empire had imbued it with over many years. Not only was it impossible to scout or sense within it, but even entering while invisible was ineffective. Seeing its ineffectiveness, Chen Mo naturally didn’t bother activating it, so the people of the Yongming Star System had no way of learning about this aspect. Otherwise, by leveraging some special conditions within the dungeon, they might have actually been able to obtain this information. But now, they naturally couldn’t.

As Chen Mo directly activated the Space-Time Pearl to freeze the Demonic Queen’s Avatar, he naturally killed her instantly. After all, it was just an Avatar with ordinary attributes; only its Demon Art was somewhat powerful and troublesome. Controlled by the Space-Time Pearl, she had no chance to use her Demon Art and was thus easily dealt with.

The Heavenly Path’s Hint also sounded in Chen Mo’s and Alina’s ears in a timely manner.

[The Heavenly Path’s Hint: Congratulations on successfully killing the Demonic Queen’s Avatar. You have completed the hidden mission “Encircle and Intercept,” and you have received 500 dungeon points as a reward.]

[The Heavenly Path’s Hint: Your current dungeon points are 12,700, which will be multiplied by 3 during settlement.]

As The Heavenly Path’s Hint faded, Alina suddenly said to Chen Mo, “Chen, those people from the Yongming Star System are already on their way. Their coordinates are at the edge of this Savage Ancient Forest.”

“I thought they were going to hide in the Imperial City forever. Since they’re coming out on their own, that’s for the best. I’ve already dealt with the Demonic Queen’s Avatar. You should be safe with these people; with three Grand Marshals and eight Generals, ordinary ambushes will be useless against them. Just focus on protecting yourself. I’ll go meet these curse-demonized individuals from the Yongming Star System.”

“Then you must be extremely careful.”

“Don’t worry. Only my summoned creatures will make contact with them; I’m perfectly safe.”

At Chen Mo’s command, ninety percent of the Skeleton Monsters were immediately dispatched, charging towards the Yongming Star System group. The remaining ten percent stayed near Alina to guard against any potential sneak attacks or assassinations. After all, when they first entered the dungeon, the Heavenly Dao had already warned them that there might be assassination attempts. They had come all this way without any assassinations occurring. This clearly meant such an event was imminent, so they needed to be on guard. However, Alina herself was not weak. As a five-star professional, she possessed numerous life-saving methods; Chen Mo was merely adding an extra layer of protection.

When Chen Mo suddenly led the Skeleton Monsters towards the Yongming Star System group, he discovered that, under the shared-coordinate rules, the Yongming Star System members showed no intention of fighting him at all. Instead, they immediately began fleeing back towards the Imperial City.

What’s going on? The people from the Yongming Star System are here, so why are they running away? Didn’t they enter this dungeon to kill me? I’m practically serving myself up on a platter, and they’re fleeing? Discovering this, Chen Mo couldn’t help but feel puzzled.

「At this point, on the Yongming Star System’s side.」

“He really does come straight for us as soon as we get close. We said before that he chose to share his coordinates because he wasn’t afraid of us at all, and it seems that’s true. Even with us having gatecrashed this dungeon, he can clearly see our attributes; he’s not scared at all.”

“It’s normal. If you were protected by thousands of fourth-transition powerhouses, you wouldn’t be scared either. But the more complacent he is, the better. Let’s quickly retreat to the Imperial City and let him taste the power of our Eternal Night Evil-Gathering Array,” Randy said nonchalantly, leading his men in a swift retreat. Many of them were even still in a Demon Cocoon State, being carried by their teammates as they fled.

Seeing the enemy acting so strangely, Chen Mo couldn’t help but ponder further. He suddenly stopped in mid-air, looking back at the allied forces behind him.

Are these guys deliberately trying to lure me away? Why else would they run? Could they have allied with the Demonic Queen and that treacherous minister to prepare some other scheme?
