Huge Stitches and hordes of zombies close like river locks, standing between their skeletal leader and their deadly foe.
Skeleton Commander Saka Bones retreated quickly while pulling off the arm of a living corpse next to him and clasping it on the broken bone of his left hand.
At the moment when bone and flesh came into contact, the grafted arm suddenly twitched violently like boiling liquid, producing dense black and red tentacles that wrapped around the broken bone. In just an instant, the wounds of the broken bones began to melt with the carrion, as if they were limbs that had never been separated.
Saka moved his wrist, took off the shield behind him without hesitation and moved forward to block.
In front of it, there were clearly layers of living corpses blocking it, but it still took a defensive posture as if facing a formidable enemy.
Amidst the roar of the corpse tide, the rustling sound of arc tearing came from far and near, and the densely packed corpses suddenly burned like moths rushing towards a campfire.
The beam passed through their carrion and broken bones, piercing Saka's shield like a spear, tearing apart its newly resurrected left arm.
"Bang!"
With a deafening roar, the golden spear shot through the barrier of living corpses, ignoring the defense of the shield, destroying half of the skeleton leader's body, and carrying debris all over the sky, creating a fierce storm in the corpse tide.
The living corpses that were swept away by this storm made a series of explosions, and were plowed together with the muddy black mud into a bloody road two meters wide and fifty meters long. The broken bones and carrion set off a rain of blood, which was thrown into the air by the air wave of this blow, and then fell like a torrential rain.
Amid the rustle of the rain of blood, a slim and tall woman walked slowly through the splattered corpses. Gold and silver lights and shadows swirled around her, traveling under the black and yellow rain in the sky, but not a trace of sewage was stained.
"Ding--dang!"
The shining greaves and boots made a suffocating knocking sound, making people's hearts tighten with every step. Her flaming red hair flew behind her, and her proud and beautiful eyes swept across the undead crawling on the ground.
Erza put her foot on Saka's ribs. The bones as hard as steel creaked and whined under the heels, as if they would be shattered in the next second.
"Where is your leader?" asked the young leader of light and shadow, "Answer me, Little Bones."
Saka Deathbone struggled desperately. It drew out a black scimitar and stabbed hard at the long leg that was stepping on his ribs.
"Bang!"
With a crisp sound, Erza swiped her shield, and Saka's right arm and scimitar flew ten meters away.
"What a stubborn little bone." Miss Extraordinaire bent down, her slender fingers gently slid across the lower jaw of the skeleton, and patted its chin like an intimate tease. Then, with a gentle squeeze, she grabbed the skull and lifted it up.
With a crisp sound, Erza broke the undead creature's strong spine, picked up the skull, threw it in her hand, turned around and asked behind her:
"Horus, are you psychic?"
"No, I can only purify." The burly cleric walked towards her with a roar, waving his warhammer continuously along the way and hitting the sky with broken bones.
"What about you, Moreau?"
The extraordinary assassin in the shadow is grabbing the head of the necromancer, kneeling on one knee on the broken corpse: "No, even the caster will not easily explore the memory of the undead, it is very dangerous."
Miss Extraordinary shook her head unsatisfied: "I feel a powerful aura, but why hasn't it appeared yet? Does it have other means to penetrate our defense line?"
…
Griffith observed the battle from a low knoll. The three extraordinary beings tore apart the line of the undead with astonishing power. The officers who were commanding the battle a minute ago were decapitated in the blink of an eye and became the trophies of the extraordinary beings.
However, the surging corpse tide showed no intention of retreating. They rolled up a terrifying wave of corpses and rushed in from all directions.
The tide of corpses flooded the streets and houses, and any place without barriers was a smooth road. They catch some refugees who are too late to escape and instantly turn them into pawns of the army.
Powerful psychic fluctuations are gathering, and the fourth transcendent on Raven's wall, Professor Lordes, is about to lead the casters to launch a second round of earth-shattering strikes.
At this moment, the earth suddenly trembled. The whole world seemed to be shaking violently, even worse than when the zombies came.
However, although the tide of corpses scattered across the countryside is fierce, it has not changed from before.
Where does this ground sound come from?
Some kind of chant-like sound appeared in the rumble of the earth, spreading the terrifying horror to the world.
Before Griffith could understand all this, the extraordinary beings who were overwhelmed by the tide of corpses all ran backwards. They skimmed past the defensive bastions and made a beeline for Raven's walls.
The Deathrattle Order's back-up plan is activated!
The ground under the city wall suddenly cracked, and a huge, indescribable black shadow broke out of the ground.
First there was a pile of surging tentacles, growing on the soft and smooth gray-black bag-shaped body... except for the pile of stretched and curled tentacles, it had no obvious characteristics that could be identified. No, there is - yes, there's a lump on the front of this thing... that's the brain, or nerve center, or whatever it is that controls this horrible, disgusting creature. Containers prepared for diseased organs.
The container was torn open, revealing a mouthpart that looked like petals. In the weird roar that penetrated directly into the soul, overwhelming black and yellow spots were sprayed into the sky.
Earth-burrowing demonic insect!
It suddenly emerged from the ground and appeared directly in the open space close to the city wall, making an endless strange sound like a chant.
The moment they saw its terrifying torso, the city defense troops on guard on the city wall became a mess, and everyone screamed.
The raindrop-like objects ejected from the mouthparts are living corpses of various sizes. They fell to the ground, some fell into pieces, and some immediately bounced up and swarmed towards the city wall.
The earth-boring demonic insects kept spewing out living corpses like a fountain. However, its body also quickly withered and disintegrated, and finally fell to the ground.
From that cracked body, an astonishing terrifying aura was slowly gushing out.
Behind the city walls were gathered refugees who had fled from all directions. They thought they could finally rest for a while, but suddenly they heard a loud crash.
After the loud noise, a shambling and tattered figure walked up the far wall.
In the dim light and fog, it opened its mouth at an unimaginable angle and howled toward the city of living people:
"Ouch——!"
Weird and terrifying roars echoed in the air. When everyone turned their horrified gazes over it, one after another skeletons and living corpses climbed up the city wall from its side and rushed towards the bottom of the city wall.
"Living corpses! They crossed the city wall!"
I don’t know who shouted the first sound, and then waves of frightened shouts enveloped the city. The refugees who took refuge under the city wall were screaming and running around, and the soldiers and guards under the city were dispersed by the crowd before they could gather together.
Beside and behind the living corpse, there were skeleton warriors covered in iron armor and warlocks wrapped in black mist. Undead creatures surged out from the body of the earth-burrowing demonic insect like a tide, gathering and stacking under the city wall.
They stepped on each other, even if the living corpses and skeletons at the bottom had been crushed into pieces, they were indifferent. This tide of corpses instantly built a smooth road leading to the city wall, and countless monsters stepped on them and rushed towards the city wall.
However, even such amazing sights and tidal waves of monsters are not enough to make everyone experience the horror that follows.
In the core of the corpse tide, in the deep mist, a tall and ferocious black figure stepped on the avenue of corpses and slowly climbed up the city wall.
When Griffith saw this monster, the fighting spirit and rationality surging in his heart collapsed like ice and snow meeting fire. The shouts of soldiers and citizens near the city wall suddenly stopped, as if everyone had their throats choked by entities of fear and despair.
A black knight wearing strong armor rode a black horse larger than a carriage, strolling up the city wall like a king inspecting his territory.
A huge bone sword hung on its saddle, exuding an icy aura that could not be matched by the ice under the thousands-year-old glacier. Black clouds like mosquitoes and flies gathered around it and never dispersed. Just looking at it made people feel the smell of plague.
Everyone, regardless of whether they had received occult education or not, felt violent dizziness at this moment. At the same time, they also knew an existence, a knowledge and a reality.
The highest-ranking extraordinary person under the demigods, the death knight, came in person.
A group of city defense troops trying to fight back and seal the breach in the city wall saw this monster suddenly appearing in front of them, and suddenly fell into irreparable madness. They lost all fighting spirit, screaming and jumping off the city wall, or standing there stiffly holding useless spears.
The death knight turned a blind eye to the militiamen, raising his hands wrapped in black fog and iron armor toward one end of the city wall.
Its target, its prey, is the extraordinary wizard Lordes who stands alone behind the battle line and can bring large-scale destruction and efficient assistance.
Although the superhumans tore the core of the undead creature and killed the officer. But this is all part of the Death Knight's plan. Its target has been a powerful spellcaster from the beginning.
"You have no way to escape, wizard. Your life ends here," the death knight rode up, the breath of annihilation lingering around the horse's hooves, "suffer death."
Terrifying green light swirled on its cold gauntlets, and a substance between mud and fire surged.
The two low-level spellcasters beside Lordes screamed and jumped off the city wall. The evil green substance roared out and flew towards Lordes.
An earth-shattering impact occurred, and the extraordinary wizard was hit head-on. At that moment, even Griffith could feel countless broken souls crying out. The three extraordinary beings who rushed towards the city wall were all stunned.
Among the scattered black smoke and green mist, bursts of crystal light suddenly flashed out.
Then, strong winds blew up, sweeping the smoke and scattered living corpses off the city wall. At the core of the blast, Professor Lordes was surrounded by particle-like light. In front of him was a seven-layer seven-color magic shield that flashed red, orange, yellow, green, blue, and purple one after another, blocking the evil's full blow without any damage.
The death knight raised his bone sword and pointed it, and countless living corpses swarmed up like a tide.
Lordes stared indifferently at the monster close at hand, and the magic shields in front of him merged with each other, forming a blazing white solid light shield that enveloped him.
After a while, it was difficult to recognize the human form in the light.
He was wrapped in blazing white light and turned into a ball of lightning suspended in mid-air, making a majestic buzz and approaching the death knight. He waved his hands and burned the undead creatures wherever he went like ants, annihilating them all.
The extraordinary wizard wrapped in light has transformed into some kind of existence other than human beings. He does not sing, dodge, or retreat. He rushes straight at the death knight and swings the lightning whip at it.
The death knight galvanized his black horse and charged at him with his sword raised.
Two terrifying creatures collided on the city wall, making a deafening roar.
The death knight split the arc of lightning with a sword, carrying evil energy deep into it. Lordes grabbed its bone sword and struck a bolt of lightning at its arm.
Terrifying creatures were fighting each other, and electricity and death were stirring. They were spinning and wrestling on the city wall, refusing to give in to each other. The fierce fighting tore stone walls apart, kicked up flying sand and rocks, and ignited the living corpses and towers into blazing torches. Even the death knight was enveloped in flames and made a crackling sound.
Lordes, like ball lightning, gave off an inhuman echo of terror. It raised its hands toward the sky, and a dense power grid immediately enveloped the sky.
"Annihilation, as you wish!"
