Chapter 164 I Demon (1/2)
After a few days. Elijah and Yawen were resting on bed, chatting, ”Yawen, have you seen that little crystal beast? I think it has been over a year since I last saw him” Yawen who was resting on top of him jumped out of the bed the moment he mentioned the crystal beast.
”Oh... I've forgotten to tell you about it before. Crystal contacted me some time ago. Crystal seems to have found a large room with the most dangerous presence he had felt and it could be from the boss of this floor. He also said said that he tried to contact you but it didn't work, so he decided to check it first.” Staring at Yawen, he could feel it was not all.
”And when did Crystal contacted you?”
”About three weeks ago.”
Leaving the bed, he washed himself, changed clothes and stored the bed and all the other things he used to decorate the room. Suddenly, the ground started to shake violently as the sounds of howls could be heard everywhere within the labyrinth. Elijah's eyes turned sharp, images of his surroundings surface in his head. The platform had been surrounded!
”Take this! Most of the passages leading him are fully sealed so we just need to watch this one and we're safe!” Elijah threw his polaris sword at Yawen while thighly gripping his hammer's handle. There were four passages leading to this platform and three of them had been sealed. It would take tremendous effort to break through any of those seals.
The moment the word safe came out of his mouth, a loud boom echoed before being accompanied by other two sounds as the undead invaded the platform. Elijah was about to say something when Yawen interrupted him, ”Shut up! You are going to make things even worse!”
”Who said that? I was just going to say most of these undead are weak and we can easily face them...” Boom! One hundred Lich kings and undead shamans could be far from the other undead. They all seemed to be part of a strange ritual, raising their scepters and cutting off their hands. A huge portal was summoned and a creature with the front of a lion, snake in the tail and the body of a goat. This creature emanated the pressure of a peak demigod at the same time all the undead knelt before such a creature.
”Okay, I suppose I deserve a beating.” Elijah sighed to himself before exchanging glaces with Yawen. Then they turned around and started to run away.
Void Steps! Their bodies blurred as they leaped over a thousand undead and rushed through the door leaving a few after-images behind to attract their enemies.
Stopping after a long run. They hid in a corner while observing if there was any undead close by.
”Elijah, that creature they summoned is too powerful for us in our state. And it seems they won't stop chasing us.”
”Yeah, it will take some time but let me try something. Governor, do a simulation with the data colected and devise the best course to take when facing the undead horde.”
