Chapter 46 - Undead Barracks

Despite most of the personal rewards given, there weren't really many of them that were useful to him. He couldn't use magic because he saw no use in learning it. He was Omnipotent within his realm and he couldn't leave it so the talent increase granted by both titles were useless, the skills they granted were also useless because if he wanted to force a creature to bow to him, all he had to do was will it.

In fact, from the reaction of the Diplomats upon seeing him proved that he didn't even need it. His presence alone commanded enough respect that they wanted to worship him and referred to him as power personified. The only useful abilities here were the barracks given to his governors and the increase in troop abilities.

"Speaking of barracks… announcing to all Governors... i am pretty sure you have noticed the new summoning option given to you... i would like to tell you to be patient while i try to resolve a fundamental issue with the barracks" Kingsley said while projecting his voice to all his governors

The Dead Lands was called that for a reason and it also became like it is today for a single reason and both reasons were the existence of the Undead. The Undead may not mean it but they were unnatural creatures and they carry the aura of death within them which kills all life within the area around them and if his governors suddenly began to summon Undead beings everywhere, it wouldn't take long before their territories become mini dead lands.

He also doubted that the system would help solve the problem after all from what he could see from his analysis of the undead, said aura was what made an Undead possible. so, they must go hand in hand.

"Come to think of it, moments like this always come with accompanying brain-dead conversations in the chat" he said remembering the novels he used to read. In them, any world announcement is always followed by an accompanying conversation in the chat, using the novels as a base, Kingsley pulled up his [Chat] and sure enough, they were there

[Guys, I just saw a massive mushroom cloud form a few kilometers away from my territory] A lord posted, this was the first message that Kingsley found that was related to his actions

[Do you encounter a lot of Undead in your territory?] another lord asked, he immediately recognized the lord as one of his Governors

[Ah then your territory is around the Undead valley… Lord [Kingsley] sent his army to wipe out the undead in the entire valley so brace yourself and try your best not be caught in the cross fire]

[Caught in the crossfire… this guy is throwing around nuclear weapons and you are telling me to brace myself… how do i even do that" The lord complained

[That's your problem my guy, you can just move if you feel unsafe]

[Wait, did he actually use a nuclear weapon… i saw the same mushroom cloud from my territory, it was golden in color right?]

[I don't know my man, lord [Kingsley] has being all sorts of ridiculous ever since I joined him so maybe he has them but somehow i doubt that]

[Yes, it was golden in colour, it's good to know that another lord's territory is close to mine… also what do you mean, it's my problem, your king is throwing nuclear weapons at an area close to my territory and you think i wouldn't have a problem with it]

[Holy shit!!.... who saw the announcement just now?] another lord post out of nowhere and Kingsley immediately smiled since this was probably a few seconds after the announcement was made by the system

[How is 1000 acres… mine is just 12 acres and i have conquered nearly all the goblin and rock owl tribes in my area]

[That's what you are focused on, Lord [Kingsley] has access to a lot of SSS-rank creatures and they all just received a troop rank increase… what would they even turn into... gods, is there even a rank above the SSS-rank] another lord ranted to which Kingsley's smile got even bigger

[I have long since said that this region is cursed… how could the system even put us together with such a monstrous entity]

[Well, that's your business... i am surrendering now, i feel like at this rate, that guy's territory would eventually clash with mine and i don't have any defenses that can protect me from a nuclear weapon]

...

The addition continued for a while before everything quiet but Kingsley didn't think much of it since he didn't receive any notification that anyone wanted to surrender but then again, the clone room was still in existence so while he was busy examining the newly gained territory, the clones may have accepted and attended to the lords.

Aside from the main chat, the Governor's chat was also on fire as everyone was talking about how quick his attack was and then finally about the benefits they had gained from the system. The increase in territory size, the troop rank up and level up, all of them were excited and happy and that feeling could be felt from their chats.

"Ah Kingsley focus… you have people to take care of" Kingsley said to snap himself out of his distraction

He had the undead's life-draining problem to take care of, it was urgent that he took care of it unless he didn't want his governors to live a full life after all who knew if the death aura in the undead could drain life from their summoners as well. he just needed to come up with a good solution to it.

"It is a summoning pool, maybe a small mutation to the pools would change the foundations of the creature summoned" Kingsley pondered while looking at the Undead summoning or possibly creation spots

The System may call it a barracks but it was in reality more of a pool within a temple that was designed after the race you were summoning. the Undead summoning pool was stored in a temple that had several death themed carvings made into them. It was beautiful but the feeling one got from it was incredibly creepy.

Kingsley's idea was to somehow change the pool to cause a mutation in the Undead it created. this would work by replacing the energy or aura that made the Undead alive. if the death aura was discarded then said problem should disappear so Kingsley immediately go to work. He used his powers on all the barracks at once with the intent to solve the problem in the manner he wanted and even add a few more things to the barracks.

"Status" Kingsley called out using [Lord's eye] on the barracks

==========

Name: Barracks

Type: Undead

Rank: SSS

Description:

A barracks modified by the lord [Kingsley], it is capable of summoning undead of any type but they all must be at the SSS rank or above. All Undead summoned are vastly different from wild undead, being born of death rather than being born from being influenced by surrounding Death aura. Each Undead born from this barrack is loyal to the governor [Makoto]

=========

Reading through the status provided by the system, Kingsley couldn't truly tell if problem was solved or not but since the system said that they were vastly different from common Undead, that would mean that something had definitely changed. At least he was sure now that it's existence wouldn't cause their territories to die.

"You are now free to use the Barracks, the issue has been rectified" Kingsley announced to the governors who immediately got to summoning their new creatures.

Though he had deemed the barracks safe for usage, he still wanted to be sure and also out of curiosity, see what type of Undead were summoned. Focusing on the governor, he had used his barracks to experiment, he could see the man walking towards his barracks that he was already familiar with.

The barracks was located somewhere under the castle for further protection due to how important it was to the governors and in the small temple that was somehow termed a barracks, there were two pools both looked normal though the liquid within them looked to be way too dense to be water.

The man walked towards the Undead summoning pool and immediately activated the summoning function as his Governor points reduced dramatically but when compared to the total amount he had, it was nothing. With the due being paid, the liquid in the pool rose up slowly until it formed what looked like a silver mirror.

The man stood and watched in confusion since he wasn't used to such a summoning process, he moved several steps back as his automatons moved forwards to cover him in case whatever was happening wasn't normal, as soon as the silver mirror was fully settled, a large potrusion could be seen as though something was trying to cross over to the other side.
