"Your humble servants pay their respects to Your Majesty." The three bowed respectfully.
Li Ling directly issued the order: "An army of undead has appeared outside the empire's borders, and the border soldiers are powerless to resist. I now order you to lead the undead legion into battle."
Li Lingyuan gazed westward and whispered, "I want to see whether Egypt's undead army is more powerful, or my immortal legion!"
"Your humble servant obeys!"
The three generals of the Undead Legion accepted the order with a roar, their bodies radiating intense fighting spirit.
Since the Undead Legion crossed the Great Wall, it has swept across Asia in recent years, encountering almost no worthy opponents.
Now that a large undead army has suddenly appeared, the three generals are filled with fighting spirit and wish they could rush to the border immediately to fight the undead army to the death.
"General Yang, prepare the carriage! I am about to personally lead the army!"
Li Ling was naturally very interested in Anubis's army of the dead. Fortunately, he was safe in Xianyang, so he prepared to lead the expedition in person.
"Yes, sir!" General Yang respectfully accepted the order.
An hour later, the undead army set off in a mighty procession.
Three days later, they confronted the undead army at the border.
Beyond the borders of the Qin Empire, all that could be seen in the vast expanse of yellow sand were endless undead warriors.
At the very back of the undead army stood three figures: O'Connor, Evelyn, and Evelyn's brother Jonathan—the mummy trio gathered here.
For the past six months, Li Ling's undead army has been conquering the West, causing the Western empires to suffer repeated defeats. As Westerners, O'Connor and his two companions could not bear to see Easterners conquer the world, so they immediately returned to the West from China and found the Death Bracelet to summon an army of the undead.
"Wang Jian, issue my order: kill!"
Without any pre-battle shouts, the two armies clashed instantly at Li Ling's command.
To Li Ling's surprise, the so-called undead army was unexpectedly weak.
That's right, it's weak.
Under the onslaught of the undead legion, the undead army crumbled instantly.
"The so-called army of the undead has disappointed me greatly!" Li Ling shook his head.
The kobold, who appeared to be incredibly evil and terrifying, standing three meters tall and wielding a strange weapon resembling a double-headed crescent shovel, was utterly routed and slaughtered after engaging the undead legion.
In fact, as can be seen from the movie, Anubis's army of the dead is not very strong. Those descendants of the pharaoh's guards could easily kill kobolds, let alone the invincible undead army.
The fighting strength of the undead army is about the same as that of the Qin soldiers who did not cross the Great Wall and were only in the form of terracotta warriors.
The true terror of Anubis's army of the dead lies in the sheer scale of the horde, which is enough to destroy everything. Just as a single ant is not frightening, but a large number of them can kill an elephant.
Unfortunately, the undead army has now encountered the undead legion, which not only possesses immortality but also surpasses the undead in combat power by several levels.
From the outside, the soldiers of the Undead Legion look like living, breathing people; while the soldiers of the Undead Army are made of black sand, and their bodies will disintegrate if you cut them down.
"This can't go on!"
Although the battle is one-sided, the undead army cannot be killed. Does that mean the battle will continue indefinitely?
Li Ling didn't have time to play with these undead here; he needed to hurry up and unify the world to complete his mission.
"Evelyn, the undead army seems to be no match for them..."
Unlike Li Ling, who didn't want to waste time, Jonathan, the goofy member of the mummy trio, looked extremely anxious.
They clearly overestimated the strength of the undead army, initially placing high hopes on it to destroy the Qin Empire.
To their surprise, the undead army was no match for them as soon as the battle began, and the situation was completely one-sided.
"The undead legion that crossed the Great Wall is indeed powerful!" O'Connor also realized the fragility of his own undead army; he had greatly underestimated the strength of the undead legion.
What they didn't know was that the immortal army in the movie wasn't very strong; the Qin terracotta warriors were so fragile that they could be broken with a single touch. But after crossing the Great Wall, the Qin soldiers, who possessed immortality, were incredibly powerful.
Moreover, the Undead Legion has a unique characteristic: the larger the army, the stronger it becomes.
The difference in strength between a thousand-strong undead legion and a two-thousand-strong undead legion is definitely not as simple as one plus one.
"O'Connor, bring out the Book of the Dead!" Evelyn shouted at O'Connor, looking at the undead army that was completely powerless to resist.
Now they have no other choice but to pin their hopes on the Book of the Dead.
The Book of the Dead contains many ancient spells, which may provide a way to deal with the undead army. At the very least, the Book of the Dead can enhance the strength of the undead army.
Because Evelyn understood ancient Egyptian, she had previously consulted the Book of the Dead and remembered a spell that could amplify the fighting power of the undead army. (The remaining text appears to be unrelated and likely refers to a separate entity or event.)

Chapter 231: Anubis, the God of Death
“Evelyn, here you go.” O’Connor took the Book of the Dead from his backpack and prayed, “I hope it can hold off these undead legions of the East.”
The most amazing thing about the Book of the Dead is not that it contains many dark magic spells, but that even ordinary people can cast spells from the Book of the Dead simply by reciting the incantations.
Evelyn took the scripture but didn't touch it, instead saying, "O'Connor, are you really going to do this?"
Evelyn was somewhat reluctant. She knew very well how terrifying the undead army was, and if she used the spells from the Book of the Dead to amplify it, it was hard to imagine what the undead army would become.
If the undead army gets out of control, it will be a terrible catastrophe for Earth.
