411 Intense Battle For Survival
—–
Blake’s entrance into the battle shocked everyone around them, as some began to wipe their eyes using their hands, trying to realize what they were seeing. Not many knew that the boy that had been healing people around was also the possessor of such incredible magic and skills. Nonetheless, Blake paid no mind to onlookers, solely focusing on the battle.
“GROOARR!”
The Undead were not going to sit and watch either, as dozens began running forward, not aiming at the people in front of them in specific, but at the walls behind them. They knew the walls were still on their development stages, the base was made out of a combination of wood and stone and reinforced with Magic, but it was still not the strongest, if several Undead, especially these powerful ones, gathered in front of the walls, the walls themselves might easily fall.
“Where do you think you’re going?!”
Chris, however, faced a horde of twelve zombies and skeletons, stopping them from getting into the walls. Although the rest of the group that was trying to stop them was fighting many at the same time, these Undead easily bypassed them and ran around their foes, reaching their destination.
Chris’ staff flared with flames as the tip of it suddenly glowed bright red. In mere seconds his entire body unleashed an aura of flames as well, converging with his staff and then his Fire Fox Spirit, which flew into the tip of his staff!
“Mystic Fire!”
FLUOOOSSSH!
An enormous flame of white and blue flames emerged, covering the entire body of the undead in mere seconds. The flames, imbued with spiritual energy had a special sacred element added to them, becoming extra deadly against these Undead!
However, as they were all upgraded and enhanced by the Necromancer, their power was also noticeable, many of the Undead, even while being covered on flames, kept running towards the walls.
“You damn…! Fire Blade!”
Chris immediately followed with more Fire Magic, conjuring five two-meter-long blades made of fire and firing them at the Undead. The blades proved to be effective, as they easily pierced through the bodies of zombies and skeletons alike, and then, exploded.
BOOOM! BOOOM! BOOOM!
The Undead that were targeted exploded, taking with them anybody around them. Chris sighed in relief as he took twelve Undead in a few seconds, although by carelessly spending a large quantity of his MP.
“SHAAA!”
However, once he lowered his guard, they attacked. A trio of enormous six-armed Vipers who were actually not Undead at all, but that were infected with Miasma and were stronger, with black scales and red eyes, reached up to Chris!
“Holy Dragon Breath!!!”
FLAAASH!
However, a glorious dragon made of holy light emerged before him, unleashing a powerful blast of light against the Demons, consuming them into the flash of light and almost completely turning them into ashes!
BOOOOMMM!!!
“Hmph, so there are even Demons here! That bastard’s not a simple necromancer, that guy really became a master of these demons! Did he enslaved them?” Wondered the Dragon, as Ellergest walked near him.
“It seems so. Chris, are you alright?” Ellergest asked.
“Y-Yes, Lord Ellergest…” Chris sighed. “Ah!”
However, his break was quickly broke by a mass of twisting flesh with eyes and tentacles that came rolling towards him!
“OOOHHHHH…!”
“That’s a Shapeshifting Abhorrent Flesh…” Ellergest said, quickly pointing his staff at the undead monster, made up of countless of rotten corpses merged together until it resembled a rolling meatball.
“Light Flash!”
TRUUUMMM…!
However, before Ellergest could even conjure his magic, an enormous mass of bones emerged from the underground, shaping into a gigantic skeletal hand and attempting to grab him!
“What the…?!”
CLASH!
The enormous hand made of bones which was as big as ten meters was swiftly destroyed by the fists of the half-demon boy, Erdrich, whose body size had grown several times!
CRAAASH!
The bones fell into pieces, but quickly began to move around, trying to reassemble themselves through phantasmal essence residing within them.
“Lord Ellergest, be careful!” Erdrich said, as Ellergest felt surprised the boy that once cried for an entire week inside his room had become so brave.
“It has only been a year since you came to us but you’ve surely changed, Erdrich.” Ellergest said while caressing his white beard.
“Eh? T-There’s no time to talk about stuff like that now- Agh!”
Erdrich suddenly felt several bones emerging from the ground, as whatever was underground which infiltrated into the interior of the barrier, began to make several sharp bones emerge one after the other.
“Damn it!”
“RAAAH!”
Chris and Erdrich worked together, beginning to smash the bones that sprouted off the ground constantly. Ellergest supported them with enhancement magic, long-ranged magic, and healing magic, while his dragon furiously took down anything that got near that might be too big of a threat.
Blake noticed Chris and Erdrich had made a group with Ellergest in the middle of the battle. They had distanced themselves too much from the main group, forming obvious gaps in their coordination.
Whatever was underground, it was attempting to separate them and pick them one by one.
“Wh-What is this- AGH!”
CRASH!
One of the adventurers in the frontlines suddenly had his chest pierced by a sharp bone emerging from the ground, as he suddenly vomited a mouthful of blood and fell half-dead into the ground.
“This is… Don’t get too far from one another…!” Blake quickly commanded everyone else, as guild master said the same thing, making the adventurers that had strived too far away from the group quickly regroup, but many began to fall one after the other, and even some soldiers as well. The lack of coordination between adventurers was sure a weakness.
CLASH!
“AGHH…!”
CLASH!
“GRYYAAEEGH…!”
CLASH!
“H-HELP!”
As the Undead were being slain, the bones underground continued growing larger, as if the destruction of the smaller Undead made whatever was underground even bigger, deadlier, and madder!
“Goddamn it!”
However, the guild master had enough, as he grabbed his enormous hammer and imbued his Mana into it, his Spirit, in the shape of a large golem made of stone, enhanced his strength as it covered his body with an armor made of sharp ores.
“Earthquake!!!”
TRUUUUUMMMMM…!
