Chapter 1360 "The Celestials’ Counterattack"
Chapter 1360 "The Celestials’ Counterattack"
Not to mention that the holy light this time could be harmful to the underworld creatures.
The low level creatures without certain intelligences such as the fireball creatures— the soul eaters....
They were directly burned to ashes when they tried to approach the celestials.
The soul eaters also needed to be in a certain distance to eat the target's souls and they had to bite the target's bodies first with each bite targeting the soul.
Now, the moment they approached the target...they hadn't even touched the target with their teeth when the holy light had already burned them to ashes.
Several higher-level creatures with humanoid bodies such as the reapers, the necromancers and so on weren't directly burned to death.
But they would also suffer burning pain and burn damage whenever they attacked the celestials bathed in the holy light.
The situation on the battlefield directly changed again.
This time, more underworld creatures suffered under the celestials' counterattack and those who didn't have enough strength directly vanished into ashes.
The underworld creatures wouldn't leave behind corpses even when they died, which was also why no ability user who awakened necromancer ability could revive underworld creatures.
Still, the necromancers from the underworld kept using various corpses to kill the celestials and some powerful ones directly summoned skeleton soldiers.
The skeleton soldiers looked weak, but with the necromancer's ability, they could float in the air either to kill celestials physically or just to obstruct some people.
Obviously, the holy light shouldn't be invincible and after so much erosion from the underworld creatures, the holy light should be weakening.
But the queen was ruthless and kept replenishing the holy light for each of her remaining soldiers, especially the elites and the important celestials.
The underworld creatures tried to corrode the holy light while the holy light tried to replenish themselves and killed more underworld creatures.
The situation on the battlefield came to a stalemate, but Bello, who had been watching from the stairs around the underworld gate, vaguely understood something.
God knew how the queen had so much energy to support these celestials but anyway, he believed that the queen still had so many trump cards to sustain the soldiers on the battlefield.
On the other hand, the longer the gate was opened, the more energy that Bello sacrificed.
Right now, even when he hadn't paid the price for opening this overpowered gate just yet, his body weakened bit by bit, and his size slowly shrunk into a normal black panther.
Ruse, the Cerberus, who had been guarding the gate, preventing celestials or anyone who wanted to enter the gate, obviously saw Bello's situation.
The three-headed hound squinted their eyes and snorted.
"Lil cat, the enemy this time is really tough. The current celestial's queen should be talented in this kind of auxiliary power..."
Which is why Bello's energy was drained too fast.
In no time, Bello would return to his cat form and wouldn't be able to use any of his abilities and remained as an ordinary cat for days or weeks.
One should say that the gate had only been opened by 30 minutes, yet Bello's condition worsened so much.
Obviously, each time a creature from the underworld died, it also took a toll on Bello's body as the one who summoned the gate and let Cerberus open it.
Bello meowed weakly at the three-headed hound, not acting as a mighty black panther at all.
"Nyaaa~ what to do, nyaaa~ is it time to summon my siblings and let them fight on my behalf, nyaaa~ "
Bello was also a necromancer but he believed that he could contribute more to the celestials by opening the gate of the underworld.
Obviously, in just thirty minutes, he reduced the number of celestials from 800.000 to 700.000.
This is such a feat in any kind of war.
Unfortunately, the current queen was also not less powerful than the previous leader of the race and to be honest....
This kind of auxiliary-type ability user was much more annoying to handle, especially when the person could affect such a large amount of people.
On occasions like a war between two races, the queen's role was too important.
No wonder she didn't activate any of the celestials' racial advantage through her body and the medium until now.
The previous leaders of the celestial might be able to do the same thing, but the number of people they could cover shouldn't be as large as the current queen.
Really annoying!
"Can you kill the queen or something, nyaaa~ what about the three 'guests' around the gate? Can they find the queen and kill her, nyaa~ "
Bello started to talk nonsense but what he said was quite logical.
The queen was obviously hiding somewhere and if they could find her and kill her asap...
The war would end much faster!
Cerberus looked at the weakening Bello with a grin on each of his head before wagging his tail like a propeller.
"Oh, little cat. You're still so silly. The queen's hidden camp must be filled with holy light and even if so send the three 'guest' creatures around the gate..."
Once they came into direct contact with the holy light from the special altar, they would either die or become crippled.
In that situation when they were deep inside the enemy's camp, it was tantamount to suicide!
"Think of a way to lure the queen out of her hiding place. For now, you should summon your siblings to help you lighten your burden."
As for the three guests around their gate...the Cerberus felt that they still had their uses and the time wasn't right at the moment.
Let's wait patiently to use them at the right moment!
