977 The Beginning Of The End [Part 5]
“Lux, I’m serious, you should leave,” Gaap said.
He was no longer smiling, which meant that he really didn’t want his Disciple to involve himself with his last battle.
“Too late, Master,” Lux said. “Do you really think that they will let me walk out of this place easily?”
Gaap rolled his eyes at the Half-Elf. How could he not know that the red-headed teenager had many ways to escape this encirclement?
If Lux wasn’t certain of his chances, he wouldn’t have come to this place to rescue him. Although he was truly grateful and very touched by his disciple’s gesture, he also felt helpless. The Half-Elf could be really stubborn at times.
“Fine,” Gaap stated as patted the dust on his robes. “Just… try not to die, okay?”
“Of course,” Lux replied.
The two gave each other a long glance before both of them raised their hands at the same time.
“”Rise!””
Dark clouds spread above the Divine Empire as countless Undead emerged around the two Necromancers.
Lux had already summoned his two clones, and they, too, summoned their Undead Legion.
As if waiting for that moment, a Dracolich descended from the heavens and opened its wings wide.
The Dragon King of Karshvar Draconis, his right-hand woman, Lady Faustina, as well as the Saints of the Dragon Kingdom, looked at the Dracolich with a frown.
“He looks familiar…” Lady Faustina muttered.
“…Of course, he is familiar.” The Dragon King of Karshvar Draconis looked at the Dracolich with a solemn expression on his face. “That is none other than the brother of the former Dragon King who disappeared during the Abyssal Invasion. It seems like he really died, and this Half-Elf managed to discover his remains.”
The Saints of Karshvar Draconis all gasped in shock after hearing their King’s revelation.
The Dragons and Dragon Borns hated Necromancers who dared to revive the bodies of the Dragons who had passed away.
This was why the Dragon Graveyards in the Dragon Kingdom were heavily guarded, preventing any Necromancer from slipping through their defenses.
Perhaps they could still somewhat tolerate it if the Dragon that was revived was one of the wandering Dragons that usually explored the world.
But reviving the corpse of a member of the Royal Family was the greatest of taboos.
Any Necromancer who was found guilty of this crime would be executed on the spot!
“Your Majesty, this…” one of the Saints of Karshvar Draconis looked at his King askance.
“There’s no need for you to concern yourself about this,” the Dragon King stated. “If he manages to escape this place alive, I will consider him absolved of his crime. That is, if he can escape this place.”
The Dragon King could see the invisible, magical weave that was swirling around the Divine Empire.
The Sovereign of the Divine Army had finally activated a surefire way to prevent anyone from teleporting away from the battlefield.
09:36
Any Spatial Ability and Spatial Treasures that allowed the owner to travel short or long distances in an instant were nullified.
But Lux and Gaap weren’t thinking about these things.
After summoning all of their subordinates, the Dracolich activated his Summon Undead Legion, doubling Lux’s and Gaap’s army in an instant!
“”Kill!””
The two Necromancers ordered at the same time, and their minions surged forth like a black wave of death, that would annihilate anything it touched.
At first, the Supremes thought that the Undead Army would be coming for them. However, it didn’t take them long to realize that the Undead Armies were actually ordered to destroy the entire city, trampling it to the ground.
“You dare!” the Sovereign of the Divine Army roared as he raised his hands, gathering Divine Power that would wipe out all the abominations in front of him in an instant!
“Ultimate Grand Cross!”
A radiance that covered the entire city descended from the heavens.
This skill was only meant to kill the Undead, as well as any other Spectral Creatures who had no true body or form.
When the light receded, everyone was shocked to see that the Undead Army was unharmed.
The Dracolich who had shielded Gaap and Lux with his wings smiled and said, “Ah… Vitamin D.”
Avernus looked at the Sovereign of the Divine Army and said, “Good for the skin and bones. You’re not half bad for a Low Lander Scum. At least you have your use.”
The Sovereign of the Divine Army almost spat a mouthful of blood after hearing the Dracolich’s insulting words.
He had known that Lux was immune to Divine and Light Magic, but he didn’t expect that even his army and allies would be unaffected by one of the strongest wide-area attacks that he could unleash.
The Dracolich chuckled as he looked at the Divine City around him.
“This place looks bland,” Avernus stated. “Time to heat things up.”
The Dracolich soared towards the sky and shouted with arrogance.
“From death’s embrace, I rise with fire and bone. As Avernus, I claim my rightful throne!”
The Gate of Hell opened wide in the center of the Divine City, and the denizens of hell poured out in the thousands.
The first thing they did was to unleash hell flames on their surroundings, burning the city to the ground.
The Dracolich’s contemptuous laughter spread in the surroundings for a few seconds before it unleashed a Dragon Breath that burnt the outer edges of the city.
It was at this moment when the Five Supremes and the Saints finally made their move and engaged their enemies with the intention of annihilating all of them.
“Since it has come to this, let’s not hold back any longer!” the Beast King, who was one of the allies of the Divine Army roared.
“Fine,” the Divine Sovereign said through gritted teeth.
He would rather be the one to destroy the Divine City than let the monsters trample on their pride.
“Focus your attacks on those two Heretics,” the Supreme of the Lizard Folk shouted. “Time it in five-second intervals!”
Raising his hand, the Supreme of the Lizard Folk summoned a giant spear blazing with green flames.
The Beast King then gathered his power in his two hands, preparing to unleash an attack that would wipe the Divine City from the face of the world.
The Sovereign of the Divine Army clapped thrice, and a Giant Sword that crackled with Lightning appeared above his head.
The two remaining Supremes also prepared their Coup de Grace, which would instantly wipe out the living and the dead who were present before their eyes.
“Um, Master, I think I forgot something back in my Guild Headquarters,” Lux said as he scratched his head. “Be right back.”
The corner of Gaap’s lips twitched as he looked at his disciple in disbelief.
Earlier, he was asking Lux to leave him, but the latter was adamant about staying.
Now that their enemies no longer planned to hold back, the Half-Elf was telling him that he had forgotten something back at his Guild Headquarters?
Bullsh*t!
A laugh escaped Lux’s face after seeing his Master’s dumbfounded face.
Just as the Halfling was about to order Antero to protect both of them, Blackfire appeared beside Lux.
The Half-Elf then lightly knocked on the Coffin’s lid.
“Grandmaster, your Disciples are getting bullied,” Lux said. “A little help please?”
A moment later, the lid of the Black Coffin opened, showing nothing but a dark exterior that seemed endless.
“Someone dares to bully my Disciples? Courting death!”
Suddenly, a pale and delicate hand reached out and held onto the edge of the coffin.
Gaap’s eyes widened, and his jaw dropped after seeing an enchanting Elf, who seemed to have just stepped out of a Fairy Tale book, appear in front of him.
Hereswith reached out her hand and closed Gaap’s mouth which was wide open before lightly patting the Halfling’s head with love and affection.
She then looked at the Supremes and the Saints that were floating in the sky and sneered.
“I’m back, you cunts!” Hereswith declared with a devilish smile on her extremely beautiful face. “Missed me?”
