The Undead King, Orcas.
Orcas was once a mortal. No one knew the details about him when he was a mortal. They only knew that he was already a bloated fatty back then and was proficient in certain spells. After his death, his soul came to the outer plane and became the lowest level of larvae, and he began his struggle in the Abyss.
Finally, he became one of the most powerful demons in the Abyss.
After Orcas became the Demon Lord, his infamy spread across all the planes. He claimed that he was the creator of the Undead, a strange creature that was far away from the negative energy plane. Orcas became even more infamous because he knew the secret of the "living dead". No one knew when Orcus began to rule over Thanatos (there were rumors that Orcus also ruled over other layers of the Abyss), but it was certain that it was a long time ago. It was said that Orcas created the first batch of Death Knights, and there were a total of 12 of them. These Death Knights were all righteous men when they were alive.
Orcas, who was killed by Søren, was not in his true Undead King form. This was because Orcas' stats in his peak form were very abnormal.
"Strength 54, Dexterity 25, Constitution 42, Intelligence 34, Wisdom 30, Charm 42. [Note: The data of the Undead King's peak form will be posted in the book after this chapter.]
Orcas' territory was Thanatos.
Thanatos was on the 113th floor of the Abyss. This floor was very cold, filled with ice, thin air, and gloomy moonlight. This floor belonged to the Tanar Demons, but it also belonged to the Undead. In fact, this floor had a slight negative energy characteristic. Even so, Purgatory Moss and Mushrooms still grew at the edge of the frozen ground. Tombstones of all kinds, imaginable and unimaginable, decorated the frozen landscape. Some stood alone, while others were gathered together randomly. It was like a small graveyard. Undead creatures were everywhere.
It was not easy to reach Thanatos from the upper level of the Abyss, unless one had a super-advanced teleportation gate.
Or else!
To reach Thanatos, one had to pass through another layer, the Frozen Waste.
The 23rd layer of the Bottomless Abyss was an extremely cold plain. The ice layer was several miles deep, and there was no sign of human habitation. The distant sun looked even dimmer than the moon in the physical world. The Frozen Moor was under the jurisdiction of the Frost Giants. They served the [Frost Giant King] of Koschurch, their Demon Prince. The Frost Giant Mages and their prince lived in the Glacier Castle. It was a castle that was built between two towering ice peaks and was on the verge of collapsing. Spring would never come to the Frozen Wilderness. Most of the inhabitants there lived in underground fortresses or caves.
Conquering Orcus's territory was not an easy task.
It took Sauron three days to gather his demon army. Most of the middle and low-level demons in the Abyss were free-range. They did not need regular food, but they needed flesh and blood to nourish themselves. More importantly, they needed the power of souls.
For this battle, Sauron had gathered all the demons in the wilderness.
There were three demonic mercenaries serving him, but the main force was still nearly 200,000 demons. Among them, the middle-level demons accounted for a large proportion. Most of them had experienced the war of the Kingdom of Fear and survived. Before launching the attack, Sauron had one more thing to do. That was to face another difficult target.
The 23rd layer of the Abyss.
When Sauron's figure appeared in the Frozen Waste, he immediately called the demon warlocks to open a portal.
The one who ruled here was a demon lord controlled by anger. Sauron did not intend to deal with him too much. The tributary of the Styx River flowed along the upper plane to here, and this place led directly to Thanatos, the territory of Orcus.
A dark-red teleportation door opened.
With the operation of the demon warlocks, Sauron quickly arrived at another cold land.
"Let's start."
Sauron waved his hand and threw a large number of precious materials on the ground. Then more than ten demon warlocks and lesser balors began to work.
They needed to build a portal.
A portal that was large enough to complete the arrival of more than 100,000 demons.
In order to complete the process as soon as possible, Sauron borrowed the power of his body and summoned the emissary from the Kingdom of Shadow. With the help of the emissary, it only took half a day for a huge portal to appear on the border of Thanatos.
Then.
Near the barracks of the Gulumba Arena, a dark red light appeared. Countless demons howled excitedly and then entered the portal under the control of the balors.
The mighty demon army began to invade.
As the main force of the vanguard, there were six balors, five assassins, seven six-armed snake demons, and about 3,000 berserk demons and berserk demons. After they reached the 113th layer of the Abyss, they quickly built a simple fortress under the command of the higher demons.
You could not expect too much from the demon's construction ability. This ugly steel fortification was completed in less than three hours.
Its purpose was only to protect the portal.
"Leave a group of balors to protect this place."
Sauron waved his hand and summoned the vanguard that had arrived. He said in a deep voice, "Clean up the undead nearby."
There were many undead in Thanatos.
Within the range of the naked eye, there seemed to be tombs everywhere. Countless undead wandered here, including Boda corpses, death knights, high necromancers, vampires, skeletal warriors, and so on.
The power of this plane had been infiltrated by Orcas. When souls entered here, there was a 50% chance that they would become undead and not transform into demons.
This was a change to the plane's laws, so this plane had been infiltrated with negative energy.
"Yes, sir."
"Master!"
A balor stood up and then summoned his subordinates to attack the surroundings. About 3,000 demons began to clean up the surroundings. At the same time, a group of balors found a mountain under Sauron's command. Then they began to set up a huge magic array.
The mighty abyssal army was continuously teleported over.
Because it was close to the kingdom of the main body, there was no need to worry about defense. This time, Sauron gathered more than 70% of the army to attack here.
The teleportation circle was constantly running.
The scene that happened in Modor City was repeated. Soon, an army of nearly 100,000 demons had completed the teleportation and piled up the entire plain. But this time, the undead became the invaders. Sauron led the demon army to attack here with anger and hatred.
The invasion of the demons quickly alerted the undead here.
The Death Knights that Orcas had once created had noticed the abnormality. They began to gather the undead and quickly set up defensive fortresses, skeletal fortresses.
An army of more than a hundred thousand demons was densely packed on the cold plains.
Countless demons anxiously waited for Sauron's order, ready to launch a full-scale war against the gathered undead. However, Sauron did not appear in the demon army. His figure led the balors to occupy a mountain peak.
"Master!"
"The magic array has been set up!"
The lady boss of Succubus appeared in front of Sauron with a group of demon warlocks. Behind her was a large group of demon warlocks and demons who were good at magic.
Night witches, Hags, Yugros, Slaughterers, and so on.
"Very good."
Sauron's huge body turned around and nodded with satisfaction. "Start the ritual."
A balors stood up.
He followed the demon warlocks to the center of the magic array, which was a huge platform. The lady boss of Succubus walked in front of the balors with a dagger in her hand. Then she waved the dagger and pierced the balors' hearts.
Boiling hot blood gushed out from the wound.
This dagger had evil power and quickly drained the life of the balors in front of her. Then countless blood gushed out and flowed onto the magic array. A raging fire appeared on the magic array.
The temperature around rose sharply!
This was an evil sacrificial magic array. It needed the life of a balors to start.
Sauron's huge body entered the interior of the mountain through a dug passage. This passage went thousands of meters underground and connected to the magma vein.
His huge body slowly entered the magma pool.
On the magic array outside the mountain peak, the life of the balors was completely drained. A surge of magic poured into the magic array and passed to Sauron's body at the same time.
"Burn!"
"Spurt!"
"Obey my call! Elves from the Fire Plane! Expel the coldness of this world! Bring the scorching heat here! "
"In the name of Sauron, the Balor Lord!"
"Elves from the Fire Plane! Erupt your anger and scorching heat! Use the scorching heat to dispel the coldness here! Turn this place into a new land of flames! … "
…
The earth was trembling.
The entire plane was experiencing violent and strange earthquakes. Under Sauron's summon, especially after sacrificing a balors, the magma pool in front of him seemed to be boiling and surging. Then, the passage to the Fire Plane was opened. Under the summon of the name of [Balor Lord], countless ancient elves from the Fire Plane responded to Sauron's summon. They poured into this plane and brought with them a scorching aura.
Rumble!
The top of the mountain began to collapse and crack. Under the scorching aura, Sauron led countless flame elves out of the mountain.
Then.
Scorching hot magma erupted from the top of the mountain!
As the scorching heat spread, the flame elves cheered. Under the summon of the name of the Balor Lord, they directly turned the mountain in front of them into an active volcano that was erupting!
Magma spewed out!
Dust floated in the sky, and the flame sprites cheered. The temperature of the entire plane was affected by the land of fire elements. With this active volcano as the center, the ice within a radius of several hundred kilometers was melting at a speed visible to the naked eye.
Sauron was transforming this plane!
He summoned the elves from the Fire Plane in the name of the Balor Lord, and the first step he did was to detonate an active volcano in this plane!
