Global Lords: Hundredfold Increments Starting With the Undead

The ritual markings suddenly shrank, finally all siphoning into the golden coffin.

The very next second, from within the golden coffin, a withered hand rested on the side of the coffin.

Following that, the body of the Gold Eating Queen slowly sat up.

It could be seen that the restored parts did not match the color of her chest cavity.

The Gold Eating Queen was a member of the living dead undead.

Her body possessed flesh and organs, though it was no longer as pliable as that of the living.

She was more akin to a mummy that had just had its bandages removed.

The Gold Eating Queen moved her body. The crisp sounds of her bones rubbing against each other were unusually clear in the room.

It was feared she might break the body she had just repaired.

A group of funerary priests paid her a slight bow, and then, like a queen, she stepped out of the large golden coffin with Nelson's assistance.

The Gold Eating Queen first nodded towards Fang Hao.

Then, her slender fingers lightly touched the golden coffin behind her.

The large gemstone-encrusted coffin melted as if it was liquid.

The golden liquid coalesced into streams, climbing her body and solidifying.

Ultimately, it formed golden armor on the Gold Eating Queen, a golden mask, and a golden crown studded with gemstones.

And the gemstone as big as a fist was set at the top of a golden scepter.

The scepter in her hand was nobly magnificent.

At this moment, Fang Hao was dumbfounded at the doorway.

Who knew you could do that with gold.

This wasn't the end of it, the Gold Eating Queen gestured once more.

The gold utensils moved to the hallway outside the door also began to melt. This gold liquid surrounded Nelson and the group of funerary priests, eventually forming golden armor.

It was placed over their robes.

"Many thanks, my lord." Nelson and the others bowed again.

...

How impressive!

From her entrance, every move she made, was filled with impressiveness.

She truly did seem like a just-awoken queen, rewarding her subordinates who had come to save her.

Only he, as the lord, stood at the door.

Just like he had bought a ticket to watch, he had completely come to watch the show.

When everything in the room was finished.

The Gold Eating Queen - Amanda, walked out.

She walked straight in front of Fang Hao and elegantly bowed, saying, "Greetings, my lord."

You're much more-commanding than I am, Fang Hao thought.

But on his face, he just nodded, "Well, should I call you Amanda from now on? How does that sound to you?"

"Acceptable."

"Let them first remove all the utensils from here. I'll introduce you to the situation of our territory. It might be a bit different from where you used to live," Fang Hao said softly.

Following that, Nelson commanded the funerary priests to begin moving things out.

Fang Hao, however, was introducing Amanda to the situations of the territory and the living creatures inhabiting it, such as humans, orcs, dwarfs, and trolls.

But Amanda just silently listened and did not express any surprise.

"Aren't you surprised?" Fang Hao asked Amanda.

"The Immortal Clan also rules over living creatures. The bones tax that the living creatures turn in each year is the main source of military power." Amanda's voice came from under the golden mask.

Bone taxes were a type of tax, each year based on the request, complete bodies and bones from all regions had to be handed over as a sort of tax.

If it was from natural deaths, it was sufficient. But if the bone tax wasn't enough, live persons would be captured to fill the requirements.

Of course, capturing other ethnic groups was also an option.

"Alright, we are currently under the watch of the Church; later, I will return you to your territories."

"Okay."

After the introductions were over, the last items in the room were finally cleared away.

Everyone went through the water basin and returned to the temporary campsite.
