397 Undead Battle Kings (1/2)
No one could be hidden from them!
”Undead Battle Kings! Oh, my god! Those two are Liches! And they actually revived the dead Battle Kings in the catacombs and turned them into undead beings! F*CK, F*CK, F*CK! Everyone, run if you don't want to die!” Ironfist roared.
”Arghhh!”
”Nooo! Don't kill me!”
The Great Warriors immediately fled for their lives after Ironfist issued his warning. However, none of them escape the clutches of death.
The Undead Battle Kings clawed through their bodies and ripped their bodies to shreds like a hot knife through butter, scattering blood and gore everywhere.
The strength and speed of Battle Kings were unmatched, even when they are undead!
The two Liches walked down the bloodied streets of carnage like they were taking a stroll in the park. The horrifying screams, and pain of humans were like music to their ears.
”Don't kill them all. I told you to play with them! How are we supposed to collect negative energy if you don't make them suffer and taste despair?” The left Lich chided its Undead Battle King.
The right Lich turned to the direction of its own Undead Battle King and instructed, ”The same goes for you too! You can drink their blood and feast on their flesh, but not now! You need to torture them and make them understand the meaning of fear, got it?!”
”Don't let any of them escape!”
Two incense worth of time quickly passed and what was left in the Blackwind Tribe Ruins were the scattered corpse pieces of the Great Ironhawk Tribe people. The 3000 strong group of humans was quickly decimated by the two Undead Battle Kings.
As the Undead Battle Kings crouched over on the side while munching on the flesh of the corpses like rabid animals, the two Liches watched them with a slight frown.
”A few humans managed to get away in the end, but no matter. We managed to collect quite a fair bit of negative energy.” Said the left Lich.
The right Lich nodded, ”Our Lord will reward us handsomely for sure, but I think we can do better before returning.”
”Oh?”
The left Lich was immediately intrigued.
”You mean…”
”Yes, why don't we pay a visit to the human settlements and play around for a bit. As long as we don't push them too far, they will not wake their Battle Kings to hunt us down.”
”This is a dangerous game you're planning to play, but I like it. If we collect enough negative energy, maybe the Lord will bless us with some of his higher comprehension of the Death Law.”
”That's true. Well, what are we waiting for? Let us go!”
…
Many hours later, Ironfist managed to flee far from the Blackwind Tribe Ruins. He did not know which direction he had escaped and just kept running for his life.
After exhausting his stamina and stumbling to the ground, he finally looked back. He heaved a sigh of relief when he only saw two other warriors crashing to the ground in exhaustion without any Undead Battle Kings in sight.
'What a disaster.'
Ironfist thought.
They should have never come here. They had lost 3000 brothers just like that. This was not a small number, even for the Great Ironhawk Tribe.
There were many Mid-rank Great Warriors and High-rank Great Warriors within the group. Now all that was left of the group was the three of them, Extremity-rank Great Warriors.
”Brother Ironfist, I don't think I can keep going anymore. I am completely exhausted. Do you think we are safe?” Said an Extremity-rank Great Warrior.
”Nowhere is safe here.” Ironfist sighed.
”Even if we escape the pursuit of the Liches and Undead Battle Kings, it is only temporary. If they are bent on hunting us down to the last man, they will eventually catch up. We need to keep going…”
”I cannot keep going, Ironfist. Just go without me. We abandoned 3000 brothers back there. Even if we return to the Great Ironhawk Tribe, the chief will not spare us. If I die here, so be it. My body refuses to move.”
The Extremity-rank Great Warrior consigned himself to whatever fate had in store for him. He was just too tired to keep going.
”Honestly, my body won't move either, but we need to. Even if it's not for ourselves, we need to deliver the news out there. People need to know what happened at the Blackwind Tribe—” Ironfist said with a heavy sense of responsibility.
