GDK 595: Shock and Awe
In just a brief while, a swarm of undead creatures appeared outside of South Border City. After becoming a god, Little Skeleton obviously saw a rapid improvement in strength. Unwittingly, he had become extremely adept in manipulating the elemental energy of death. Perhaps the gravestone on his chest had somehow enlightened him.
An enormous number of undead creatures crossed-over from the Netherworld one after another. At Little Skeleton’s command, they arranged themselves into orderly lines and charged to the orc army encampment. The field outside of the South Border City seemed to have turned into the unholy land of the Netherworld in just a few moments. The element of death gathered intensely at this place under the effect Little Skeleton’s Domain of Divinity, providing the enormous number of undead creatures with an unending stream of energy.
Those army-civilians observing from the top of the border wall were all completely thunderstruck. These people knew that Han Shuo was a mighty necromancer, but nonetheless, they were shocked to see the scene of such a terrifying army of undead appearing before their own eyes.
There were densely packed undead creatures as far as the eye could see. Even the sky seemed to be shaded by these unholy creatures. Their momentum was bloodcurdling as they fiercely charged at the orc army encampment.
“Unbelievable! How could Lord Bryan be so terrifying!”
“Good gracious! So many undead creatures! So it turns out that necromancy magic can actually be incredibly powerful when cultivated to such great heights!”
“We are redeemed! Haha, now these damned orcs will suffer for their actions!”
“What’s going on? He’s so powerful!” Firenze was obviously also shocked and rather hastily inquired Fanny beside him.
“I, I am not too sure either. I did not expect the realm he’s in to be so terrifying!” Fanny, as someone who also cultivated in necromancy magic, naturally understood the fact that each undead creature consumed some mental strength of its summoner. She simply could not imagine just how much mental strength was needed in order to summon the thousands upon thousands of undead creatures assembled outside the South Border City.
“Fanny, how is it that this kid has suddenly reappeared? Do you know where he’s been these five years?” Firenze was suddenly extremely interested with Han Shuo’s previous disappearance. He indeed was awed when he witnessed Han Shuo had yet again obtained an inconceivable increase in strength.
“I’m not too sure. But I do know that he came to assist the Southern Border as soon as he returned,” Han Shuo’s journey at the Abyss realm was simply too unimaginable. Those ordinary people whose strength had yet to reach a certain realm might not even believe the story. Therefore, Fanny decided not to disclose it to her father.
“Hmph, at least he still has some conscience!” Firenze groaned after listening to Fanny’s words. His tone had obviously become much more moderate.
“Look! The fight has begun!” a joyous shriek sounded from the top of the border wall.
When the crowd looked ahead, they discovered that the army of undead creatures which had covered all visible ground had finally made physical contact with the orcs. Dark clouds made up of gargoyles dove downwards along with several wingless bone dragons that carried an enormous amount of the element of death. On the ground were legions of undead creatures comprised of old fey zombies, bone demons, mummies, evil knights, hate warriors, and zombie warriors headed by Skeleton Kings and King Zombies.
At this moment, there was still a steady stream of undead creatures appearing along with bright flashes in the sky, adding to the already enormous army of undead.
The large scale invasion of the sinister undead creatures immediately caused the army of orcs great surprise. After a long, blaring battle horn sounded, all the orcs were roused. The orcs at the frontline were already fighting with the undead creatures rapidly charging over. Those orcs further back had no idea what was actually happening. They grabbed their weapons and asked those around them what was actually happening in their orc language.
Several mighty orc shamans, upon seeing the gargoyles pouring down, hastily took into the sky. Riding on strange beasts they formed contracts with, they recited the unfathomable ancient orc language, forming all sorts of barriers that would defend their fellow orcs.
It was at this moment, Han Shuo, who was motionless after summoning Little Skeleton from the Netherworld, suddenly transformed into a gigantic bloody awl that shot towards the army of orcs.
Midway through his flight, this avatar of Han Shuo’s transformed to its original form. A longsword glistening with bloody light was drifting along with bloody waves. Energy similar to the energy of destruction enveloped the entire battlefield in an instant. At this moment, no matter if it was from the orc encampment or the South Border City’s city wall, everyone could sense the apocalyptically destructive energy.
Awed by the enormity of this energy of destruction, everybody’s gazes turned on that longsword emanating a most vicious aura.
“That’s Bryan!” Fanny cried out in surprise. A feeling of pride rose from the bottom of her heart when she sensed the inexhaustible energy of destruction spreading from it.
