Chapter 246 - Death Incarnation (1/2)

The moment the battle began, Julia and Fat Tiger rushed out first. Roy ordered Fat Tiger to intercept the flying bone dragons from the sky. These giant skeletons were the most suitable for Fat Tiger to deal with, and Julia’s targets were the death knights and wights.

And Roy used magic to support from the rear. Among the troops under Arantir, the number of skeleton soldiers and zombies was at least three to four times more than Cassandra’s. If he ignored these skeleton soldiers, Cassandra’s troops would immediately collapse, so Roy’s main targets were these skeleton soldiers and zombies.

Except for vampires, dark curses like Suffering were useless against most undead, so it was better to attack them directly. Roy raised his hand, and an Ice Storm directly enveloped Arantir’s vanguard.

Large and sharp black ice spikes appeared out of thin air and smashed toward the ground like heavy rain, clearing out the fragile skeleton soldiers and zombies the moment they landed! Only a few were left… There were tens of thousands of skeleton soldiers and zombies! Seeing this, Arantir could not help being shocked. Isn’t the range of this demon’s magic a little too large?!

In fact, not to mention tens of thousands of skeleton soldiers, even if there were hundreds of thousands, Roy could clear them up all at once. After all, when Roy used all his power, his magic coverage could even affect an entire city.

The front was empty, and Cassandra took the opportunity to command the troops to advance toward Arantir. But at this moment, Arantir’s counterattack arrived.

As he waved the staff in his hand, green magic light enveloped the battlefield. The broken bones left behind by the skeleton soldiers, who had been smashed by the Ice Storm, unexpectedly moved again under the light of this spell. The next second, as though invisible hands were pushing and assembling them, these broken bones actually automatically reformed skeleton soldiers once more!

Although their bones were full of cracks, these skeleton soldiers still moved. They reformed the front line to block Cassandra’s troops and fought against the skeleton soldiers under her control.

“Raise Dead?” Roy frowned as he immediately realized what spell Arantir was using.

Although undead creatures appeared terrifying and looked like skeletons, the combat effectiveness of most undead was actually relatively weak. After losing their flesh bodies, their movements would become much stiffer, and their strength would definitely decrease substantially compared to when they were alive. Similarly, after losing their souls, they could only obey orders, and it was impossible for them to react on the spot. When an opponent slashed at them, they would only meet the enemy without dodging, making them more likely to receive injuries.

Normally, the overall combat strength of such troops would definitely decrease considerably, but it would be totally different with a necromancer commanding undead troops!

And the most important ability of a necromancer was this ‘Raise Dead’ spell!

Think about it. Although it was very easy for a living person to kill these undead, the necromancer cast this spell, causing them to rise again. They would be cut down and stand up repeatedly. They did not know fatigue and would continuously consume your stamina. As long as they could catch a hint of your carelessness, they would be able to kill you. Who wouldn’t be afraid of such opponents?

Roy was facing the same situation now. Although he could use Ice Storm to clear these skeleton soldiers again, as long as Arantir used magic, they would rise again. If this continued, it would become a magic power consumption competition with Arantir. Although Roy had the high-speed magic power recovery effect of the Cold Winter Armor and would not be afraid of any battle of attrition, what was the point?

I have to make them utterly unable to move! Roy thought as he released magic again.

This time, he did not use Ice Storm. Instead, he let the black frost and snow directly drift to where Arantir’s skeleton army was. The temperature in the desert began to plummet.

Under the influence of the low temperature, Arantir’s skeleton soldiers began to slow down. As the temperature fell again, thick ice began to condense on these bones, and in the end, they were all frozen into ice sculptures! And Cassandra clearly realized Roy’s intentions. Under her control, her skeleton soldiers did not attack these frozen skeletons but rushed through the gaps between them, completely ignoring the ice sculptures.

Without a doubt, this move really exceeded Arantir’s expectations. skeleton soldiers and zombies were very weak, and Roy’s ice power was so powerful. The thick black ice was not something that the skeleton soldiers and zombies could break from the inside. This way, even though Arantir had the Raise Dead spell, it was useless.

These skeleton soldiers and zombies were all crippled…

He did not expect that he would be suppressed by the demon’s magic at the beginning of the battle. Arantir’s eyes gleamed as he quickly waved the staff in his hand. He first cast Air Shield and Protection from Water on himself. He knew very well that the enemy had fewer troops, and it was possible for him to execute the decapitation tactic and directly attack the leader. And the demon opposite him was very good at using air magic and water magic (lightning and ice magic are classified into these two categories in Ashan), so he had to ensure his safety first.
