At [QuantumQuokka]''s castle.


    Located in a canyon, the Lord''s castle was halfway up the cliff, with troops of seven feet long ck eagles.


    The Lord, a middle-aged man, had discovered the Traitor''s castle thanks to his troops and remained hidden.


    He had never allied with other Lords before, and now, witnessing Big Shot''s arrival, he wanted to see the gap between himself and a first-tier Lord.


    In the Portal of Transit''s hall, the light flickered, and the waiting man saw a ck-robed figure with a staff emerge.


    This Big Shot looks so eerie.


    The man felt a chill, hoping more troops would follow, but the portal''s light dimmed.


    He hadn''t expected Big Shot toe alone, without troops. Such confidence, facing a Commanding level enemy.


    "Where is the Traitor?"


    The necromancer''s raspy voice sounded as if he hadn''t spoken in years.


    "At the end of the canyon, at the top."


    As soon as the man spoke, the necromancer flew towards the canyon''s end without acknowledging him.


    The man wasn''t surprised by the necromancer''s ability to fly, as his own troops had taught him to fly.


    He sprouted wings and followed the necromancer, finding the frail-looking figure at odds with the Big Shot image.


    Can he really defeat a Commanding level enemy?


    At the canyon''s end stood a gray castle. The necromancer saw no local forces around, not that Alex cared.


    The distance between castles was unknown, and Alex wouldn''t waste time worrying about local forces. It was irrelevant.


    The Traitor Lord was a plump woman in her thirties, with troops of bird-headed creatures.


    The necromancer, with human intelligence, had a straightforward n: destroy the castle crystal.


    A bone spike shattered the castle''s shield, alerting the troops and Traitor Lord inside. They rushed out, seeing two figures in the sky.


    The plump woman''s troops attacked the necromancer. Calmly, he raised his hand, releasing the Bones Domain, instantly killing the troops.


    "Wow! Am I dreaming?" QuantumQuokka eximed, shocked that so many enemies were instantly killed.


    The plump woman was equally stunned, realizing she was doomed.


    This is a Monarch level!


    This battle ended even faster than QuantumQuokka imagined.


    The necromancer destroyed the castle crystal, killing the Traitor. Her troops were summoned as undead, about three hundred in total.


    The necromancer returned with the undead, leaving QuantumQuokka in shock.


    Among the three hundred undead, the Lord saw many simr to the necromancer.


    So this necromancer wasn''t the Big Shot herself, but one of her troops!


    This is Hamburger''s true power?


    My god, this is OP!


    At [ck Swan] Lord''s castle, the other necromancer arrived.


    This was a dense, ancient forest, filled with towering trees.


    The Lord, a woman in her twenties, had goblins as her troops. However, the necromancer noticed that the goblin numbers were low, likely due to the war between ck Swan and the Traitor.


    This forest was home to the centaur race, and naturally, the Traitor had allied with them. ck Swan''s castle was on the edge of centaur territory, but she was unfortunate enough to be discovered by the Traitor.


    Traitors often sought to kill Lords for points. Not all Traitors were pitiable; many actively sought protection from local forces.


    ck Swan personally led the necromancer deeper into the forest. The terrain wasplex, and she couldn''t just point out the location.


    ck Swan knew this was just one of Big Shot''s troops, as she had just exined the situation to Alex, and the necromancer had arrived immediately.


    She didn''t question why Big Shot only sent one troop but believed in its strength.


    "It''s just ahead," ck Swan said to the necromancer. Soon, they crossed a river, and the trees thinned out until they reached a clearing with a wooden castle.


    "The Traitor''s troops are female centaurs, who have bewitched the centaur race, making him second only to their leader."


    ck Swan blushed slightly. These female centaurs weren''t strong, which was why she could fight them with goblins.


    If they were the brutal male centaurs, she would have been killed long ago.


    The female centaurs roamed freely, attracting male centaurs daily. The castle was heavily guarded by centaurs, as it was crucial for their race''s development.


    The necromancer listened to ck Swan''s exnation and soon saw a female centaur emerge from the castle.


    The centaur had the upper body of a beautiful woman with short brown hair, slender limbs, and slight muscle definition. She was naked, her upper body exposed, and her lower body was that of a white horse.


    As she walked, her breasts bounced visibly.


    Being non-human, she had no sense of shame, which might have caused ck Swan''s blush.


    But the necromancer was indifferent to her charms, focused only on gathering information about local forces for the Queen.


    The necromancer waved his staff, and a massive bone spike pierced the centaur''s stomach, killing her instantly.


    The necromancer flew towards the castle, targeting it directly.


    The Traitor and the centaurs inside had no time to react before being impaled by the necromancer''s bone spikes, turning into undead.


    ck Swan covered her mouth in shock. She had seen Monarch level beings and knew about domains, so she was certain Hamburger''s troop was a genuine Monarch level. Otherwise, it couldn''t have instantly killed the Commanding level centaurs.


    "It''s so strong!"


    ....


    At Alex''s castle, she continued sifting through Lord messages. The two necromancers returned, one reporting on the centaur race.


    "So, are those female centaurs considered human or horse creatures?" Alex pondered a philosophical question, leaving the necromancer unsure how to respond.


    Alex checked her points, now at 11. This indicated she had killed one fourth-tier and one fifth-tier Lord.


    It seemed most Traitors were weak, unable to grow strong near local forces.


    Alex remained in first ce, with the second-ce Traitor now in third.


    After dealing with two Traitor Lords, Alex left the Alliance. She had spent the day chatting with other Lords and sending necromancers to kill Traitors.


    She only sent two necromancers, never going herself or sending the lich.


    At this stage, only first-tier Traitors could potentially hold off a Monarch level undead with all their troops. Other Lords couldn''t.


    But there were no first-tier Traitors now.


    For other tier Traitors, a Monarch level necromancer could easily handle them.


    Necromancers weren''t afraid of swarm tactics. The more enemies, the more undead they could summon.
