Chapter 416: Necromancers!
Chapter 416: Necromancers!
"Ding Dong! Necromancers are special species born out from humans exposed to the extreme torture of the devils. They are so vicious and bloody, using the unique ability to turn any dean into living with a spell. They are hard to deal with, and the only way to defeat them is by killing the masters, not the pawns."
"Devils? Are they demons?"
"Ding Dong! I will answer this for free this time."
"Tsk, c'mon you just took many pearls out of me just now!"
"Ding Dong! I will ignore that. We are trading info and info is the most expensive trade in the world. Devils are one of the superior forms of life, just like you."
"Like humans? Why do I feel they are much stronger?"
"Ding Dong! Not humans! I meant like you, witch descendant."
"Oh, that makes sense now," I said before thinking for a moment there. "are there other high forms of life like the two of us? And why don't I have at least unique abilities like these devils or their minions; the necromancers?"
"Ding Dong! Because you are weak. Besides that, you already have the ability of your mystic arts. Isn't this considered an ability?"
"Compared to leading a dead army? It can't be considered an ability at all!"
"Ding Dong! Then hurry and grow stronger."
"I'm, yet shameless people like you and the world's rules are standing in my way."
"Ding Dong! Don't lay your failures on us as an excuse! Just crush anything in your path and prove your worth for the substantial power of the witch."
"I just hope I have such a great power you are talking about," I then turned my gaze to glance at my large army of monsters and smaller one of demons and Tesakos. "Listen up, here is what I know about this enemy."
Then I narrated what I knew from the system to them. The more I talked, the more the monsters nodded and the other army looked more vigilant.
I knew this enemy would prove challenging, yet I wondered if this was all of them or they had a village in their back.
Could I snatch them and make them mine? If even a single one of them agreed to work for me, I promise to turn it into a giant figure that the entire world would fear.
"Do you know where they are?" I finished my words with that question while glancing at the three main monsters in front of me.
"Last time I saw them they were around a hundred mile away from here," Jen said while pointing out with her trunk to certain direction. Mark and Lilly nodded, making me decide the next direction we should venture at.
"We will all go now, your major role is to make their bones busy. As for me and my special army behind, we will wait for the right moment before hitting the masters controlling these freaks."
I then turned to glance at my army of demons and Tesakos before adding, "make sure we have one of them alive at the end so we can get more intel from him or her."
I didn't want intel, I wanted their ability.
We marched, and during our move there we didn't meet a single resistance. During the way we met many scattered monsters, and they joined me and gave me their loyalty and another five hundred pearls from that shameless system.
As my army of monsters swelled up to exceed five thousands already, we spotted the vanguard of the bones army.
The moment I spotted that army, I felt very awkward to be honest. Bones, white bones stretched along the horizon, moving in strange manners, tucking their bones together while marching aimlessly around.
Their numbers were in thousands, I believe exceeded ten thousand already, double my army. Yet, I wasn't fazed. All I cared about was to locate the places of their masters, and direct my army towards them.
"Go, kill them all," I simply waved my spear to the front, and the next moment the army of monsters gulped on the ground with the leadership of the strongest of them.
The scene was really majestic, and the first clash between my army and the bones would be in my favor.
The bones seemed not to be aware of our presence until it was too late. In less than ten minutes, half of their army was killed by my army, while only we lost a handful of a hundred or slightly more.
"That's a good start, yet where are those necromancers?" I muttered to myself, and in the next half an hour I realized something.
The number of the bones wasn't ten thousand, it was in tens of thousands! When we destroyed the bones that stood in front of us, I was speechless to find much more standing on the horizon.
And these seemed different from the others. They had many skeletons that looked like leaders, leading others to move towards the front and attack my army.
This made the next clash for me quite taxing, as I lost over a thousand in the first ten minutes, while they lost half of their bones.
Yet they could summon more bones, while I couldn't summon more monsters.
"This fight will not work this way," I gritted my teeth, knowing how hard my current situation was. I stood over the shoulders of my demon while glancing over the entire world.
Standing on top of this giant gave me more advantage here. "Here you are," I finally spotted them, as they seemed to be aware of their weaknesses and so they hid themselves farthest and in depth of the densest places of skeletons.
"Hide and fortify as you like, nothing is going to shelter you from my spear," I smirked as once I spotted them there was no reason for me to hold back. "Let's go," I said to my demon while pointing towards the direction with my spear. "Kill anything standing in our way," I gave the order like I was asking them for a peaceful walk on a sunny day!
