Chapter 357: The total attack of the undead
Translator: Nyoi-Bo Studio Editor: Nyoi-Bo Studio
One after another, the skeleton warriors turned into golden flames.
Piles of bones gathered and formed a shallow platform on the north side of the Oasis Lookout. However, they were immediately trampled by the seemingly endless skeleton warriors that rushed over from behind.
In a short moment, thousands of skeleton warriors and thousands of skeleton soldiers had already died out.
However, more undead were still gathering in the black fog.
They were truly fearless of life and death.
They only knew to listen to the orders of the high-level undead. With hatred for the living and the desire for the real world, they opened their jaws and let out a soundless roar. Step by step, they moved their thigh bones and stepped on the shattered bones of their companions as they moved forward.
This was a meaningless act of suicide. However, these skeleton warriors did not care.
If they died, so be it.
The undead themselves didn’t really have the concept of death.
In other words, low-level undead were no different from puppets without intelligence. Intelligence only existed in the brains of high-level undead, or it could be said that it was a biological instinct that disguised itself as intelligence, as well as the remaining memories from when they were still alive.
Just like now, a large number of skeleton warriors appeared in the black fog, advancing in the golden light without any fear of death.
This included the even larger number of skeleton soldiers that became cannon fodder.
A large group of undead infantrymen were launching an attack.
And right outside the Oasis Lookout, which was bursting with golden flames at any moment, the group of skeletons finally advanced deeper and deeper into the middle of the Oasis Lookout!
“The situation isn’t right. Their advance is getting closer and closer.”
Bandake warned.
“Yes.” Kant nodded. That was indeed the truth.
His expression was grave.
During this period of time, the undead skeleton soldiers had completely torn a hole in the northern part of the Oasis Lookout.
The golden light seemed to have dimmed a little. In fact, within the area covered by the sun disc, the golden spots of light that would occasionally fall like snowflakes had disappeared. Only a few spots could be seen.
But soon, the golden light spots also disappeared into the air as if they had used up all their energy.
Indeed, they had used up all their energy.
Kant clenched his teeth slightly.
Looking up at the sun disk at the top, he already came up with a theory.
This strange object was able to dispel evil creatures and cause damage to these skeletons that contained evil. It was obvious that they had used their positive energy to suppress, expel, and even consume each other, forcefully extinguis.h.i.+ng the soul fire in the eyes of those skeletons.
That was the only thing that these skeletons could rely on to move and stand up to fight.
The skeletons fell to the ground and turned into scattered bones.
Of course, this was not without a price.
The price was that the sun disk’s special effect 3, evil expulsion, temporarily lost its effect. Looking at the frequency of the golden flames burning the undead, it was already reduced to the stage where it wouldn’t even explode in half a minute.
The positive energy contained in the sun disk that could be used to activate special effect 3 was almost exhausted.
“My Lord!”
Just behind Kant, desert bandits rushed over.
They bowed slightly and reported in a hurry, “In the council hall, the mage in charge of controlling the sun disk asked me to report. They can’t continue to let the sun disk kill the undead on a large scale.”
“Okay, tell them, I understand.”
Kant nodded and waved his hand at the same time. “Tell them to stop the evilness dispelling.”
“Yes!”
The desert bandits answered.
As a messenger, his task was to convey Kant’s orders.
Regarding the current state of the battle, Kant’s orders as the Supreme Lord was absolute. Even if he couldn’t dispel evilness on a large scale, he believed that he wouldn’t lose against this group of undead skeletons alone.
The skeletons lacked flesh, blood, and nerves. They couldn’t even climb over the steep slopes.
Not to mention the current cliffs and city walls!
Although the evil dispersion could kill the skeletons on a large scale at a constant rate, overusing it would obviously affect the operation of the sun disk. After all, the law of conservation of energy still existed in this world.
There was another reason for Kant’s order.
It stemmed from the origins of the undead.
They themselves were the descendants of G.o.ds from the ancient times.
They might even be descendants of the sun G.o.d. As long as the higher-ups still had some memory and wisdom, they would definitely understand how to deal with the solar disk that they were most familiar with.
Although it had been modified by the magic system of the Enfath Empire.
In reality.
The sun disk was still a symbolic wonder of the sun G.o.d!
Therefore, these descendants who had once enjoyed the glory of the sun G.o.d, received the education of the G.o.ds, and turned into evil spirits for various reasons definitely knew how to deal with the influence of the sun disk.
After all, in the records of the past, the golden disk that symbolized the glory of the sun G.o.d also had the special effect of dispelling evil.
Or to put it another way.
The special effect of evil dispersion itself was an ability that came with the sun disk!
But no matter what, Kant chose to use his own force to deal with this group of spirits as a display of power.
With his army, he would not care about those sun G.o.d’s descendants who had lost their glory in history and could not even maintain their former status. They had already fallen into evil and darkness and turned into spirits!
Kant turned to look at ban dake. “Let’s begin. You’re in charge.”
“Understood.”
Bandake smiled.
His eyes flashed with a faint red light. When he stretched out his hand, a faint black fume wrapped around his fingers. However, it was soon suppressed by the golden light released by the sun disk above his head and could only stick to the back of his hand.
This was his extraordinary power, the power of the underworld from the world of Pande!
However, he could not use it for the time being.
Taking a slow breath, Bandake took half a step back. At the same time, he summoned his messenger and said in a deep voice, “Give the order. archers, prepare to fire at my command.”
“Yes!” The desert bandits quickly retreated to deliver the order.
The main force was gathered on the north wall.
200 Veruga marksman, 100 Veruga archers, and 10 mage apprentices were gathered here.
As for the top-notch Veruga marksman, because there were only 200 people, Kant had already arranged for them to guard the arrow towers and towers at the southeast two urn city gates, guarding against the enemy taking advantage of the chaos to attack the city gates.
One had to know that the curtain pf death had already completely enveloped the entire Oasis Lookout.
The undead had an absolute advantage in numbers!
Just by looking at the fact that Kant had ordered the sun disc to cancel and allow the evil expulsion to continue, the group of skeleton warriors in the outside world would no longer be subject to the effects of the burning of the positive energy, so there would be more and more of them, just like the way the dark ma.s.s of ants pressed forward, one could tell that the number of those who came and went would probably number in the tens of thousands!
As Kant looked at the increasing number of skeleton warriors and skeleton soldiers that were coming from all directions, the corners of his eyes could not help but twitch, and his breathing became a little heavy.
Perhaps it was not calculated according to the minimum of tens of thousands.
“It’s getting a little dangerous.”
Kant gritted his teeth.
His heart was beating fiercely, and he muttered in a deep voice, “From the looks of it… there should be hundreds of thousands!”
The group of undead skeletons finally approached the north side of the city wall, including the east, west, and south walls. Similarly, in the thick black fog of the curtain of death, densely packed skeleton warriors and skeleton soldiers walked out.
The undead army’s siege had finally begun!
“Whoosh whoosh whoosh whoosh whoosh whoosh –”
The arrows rained down like waterfall.
The Veruga archers quickly drew their bows and fired. They had long been ready.
This included the crossbowmen who had already nocked their crossbows and aimed at the approaching skeleton warriors. As they released the string, a soft “bang” followed. The targets in their sights were instantly scattered into a pile of useless bones.
The crossbowmen’s aim was already quite precise. Moreover, the crossbowmen of the Kingdom of Swadia weren’t too bad either!
In itself, they were only second to the Kingdom of Rhodoks.
Moreover, they had the number one archers on the continent by their side, and the archers from the Kingdom of Victoria’s a.s.sistance.
Under the instantaneous explosions.
The skeleton warriors that were close to the north side of the city wall fell down in large numbers.
Although the scale and power were not as large as the sun disc’s large-scale killing blow, the durability was stronger. The large number of crossbows and arrows that had already been prepared on the city wall were all deployed!
However, the fearless skeleton warriors and did not have much wisdom at all. They simply didn’t care.
They still held their rotten lance or longsword and moved forward.
The tattered armor on their bodies could not stop the arrows that the crossbowmen shot out, and even their bodies were broken into pieces. They were trampled by the skeleton warriors behind them time and time again, and even their skulls were cracked, when they came into contact with the dense positive energy in the air outside, the soul flames flickered and disappeared into the void.
The layers of skeletons had already approached the cliff. The cracking sounds of bones colliding with each other could be heard constantly. When they looked down from the city wall, they could see the thick, withered white bones mixed with the blue soul flames. It was even more terrifying!
“Whoosh whoosh whoosh whoosh whoosh –”
The archers did not stop their movements at all. They were doing their best to fire all that they had.
There was no need for them to aim now.
There were skeletons outside the city wall. The groups of skeletons that filled the mountains and plains had already approached them. They had even entered the lake below the northern cliff. They fluttered and lost their center of gravity, scaring the fish inside.
“Boom, Boom, Boom, Boom –”
A violent explosion sounded. In the area by the lake, ten fireb.a.l.l.s suddenly exploded.
On the top of the tower of the city wall, right next to the archers, the ten mage apprentices continued to raise their magic staffs. Looking at places where the skeletons gathered the most, they chanted their incantations and threw fireb.a.l.l.s one after another.
The dark red fireb.a.l.l.s were fueled by a large ring of flames, and exploded the moment they came into contact with the skeleton warriors.
The fire dragons roared and swept the area of nearly 15 square meters.
The blazing fire elements turned into flames, and the destructive effect was even stronger than the positive energy. They even destroyed the bones of the skeleton warriors, melted their skulls, and directly extinguishes soul fire inside!
Mage apprentices each had 3 fireball spells and 5 magic bullet spells per day.
These were all war spells!
