Chapter 684 - Tide of Death

Chapter 684: Tide of Death

Even if Cheyenne didn’t mention it, everyone knew and understood what an Undead creature that was most likely level-24 meant for himself and others. Although Elder Randy was a level-23 Druid who was just one level away from level-24, his abilities were definitely way worse. Level-24 was the strongest level below the Sanctuary-realm. Besides, this place was obviously the territory of that formidable Undead creature.

Damn it, if that’s really that bastard Osric, these people definitely wouldn’t have the ability to retaliate. The only outcome would be death! Lin Li cursed bitterly in his heart, but he never looked at the sky again. Instead, he exhibited his flying skills and flew towards the Teleportation Portal.

Regardless of whether it’s Osric or something else, I’d better run since I can’t beat it! Lin Li thought. He did not think that he had the ability to challenge a level-24 Undead creature. Besides, if the creature was really Osric, the power that he exhibited would definitely be beyond level-24 since he had inherited the Immortal King’s Necromagic.

Seeing Lin Li fly towards the Teleportation Portal with his subordinates, Elder Randy and the rest suddenly snapped out of their trance. No matter how powerful the entity in the sky was, their journey would come to an end once they left through the Teleportation Portal. If the entity were to chase after them, the level-24 Green Dragon King could deal with it, and at least help them buy some time.

All of a sudden, a race seemed to have broken out in this Sky Castle, and the Legendary powerhouses each exhibited their powers and went all out to dash towards the Teleportation Portal. Elder Randy immediately turned into a thunder eagle and chased Lin Li and others like a bolt of lightning. The two mages Cheyenne and Culofen had naturally reached their flying limit, following closely behind Elder Randy. On the ground, the Legendary archer Gildor made his steps as light as possible, but he was not any slower than the flying mages. Although Princess Elune was the weakest, she did not lag behind, and was in fact even faster than them because she was riding the unicorn.

They looked out to see that a Legendary Array had already appeared in their field of vision, after which they immediately sped up in a bid to leave this terrifying region before the Undead creature awakened.

However, at this moment, Lin Li suddenly felt a huge mana wave not too far ahead. Before he could even react, a massive black gate appeared out of nowhere, blocking them from reaching the Teleportation Portal.

Lin Li had no choice but to stop and stare at the black door. He then swallowed his saliva forcefully with a look of dismay, and exclaimed, “Damn it, Tide of Death!”

The Tide of Death was actually not considered a rare Necromagic spell. The Necromancers who had stepped into the Legendary-realm would mostly master it. Liches like Ujfalusi had long mastered the Tide of Death as early as during the ruins of Syer Town adventure. After following Lin Li, he used it more than once.

However, Lin Li still remembered clearly that Sendros had once mentioned that the Tide of Death could be considered one of the most powerful Necromagic spells even though it was mastered by almost every Legendary Necromancer.

Through the Tide of Death, a Necromancer would be able to continuously summon all sorts of Undead creatures until his mana was completely exhausted. The strength of the Tide of Death lay in the Undead creatures that it could summon, and it would continuously change together with the capability of the Necromancer as well. The more powerful the Necromancer, the more powerful the Undead creatures summoned by the Tide of Death.

If it were a Necromancer who was on Ujfalusi’s level, Lin Li wouldn’t take the Tide of Death seriously at all. However, at the thought of the Undead creature in the sky possibly being Osric, Lin Li could not help but wonder what kind of Undead creatures a level-24 powerhouse would summon.

There was no need to guess or wait. In an instant, countless Undead creatures emerged out of the dark gate like a flood. In the tides of Undead creatures, there was not a single low-level Undead creature. Even the Skeletal Warriors were at least level-16 and level-17. The rest, the Hell Ghouls, Vampires and Liches, were at least level-18, and many of them were near the Legendary-level.

Immediately after the Undead creatures surged out, three Humerus Wyrms immediately roared silently. Many Legendary Necromancers would mostly only summon Humerus Wyrms after they inherited the soul fire of Dragon Crystals, but the Humerus Wyrms were mostly a kind of hybrid. However, everyone could now sense that the three Humerus Wyrms had truly inherited the Dragon Crystals and Wyrm bones.

However, that was not the end. There was a Legendary Vampire that was in the form of a bat behind the Humerus Wyrm and a Legendary Skeletal Warrior that was emanating a gilded glow. There were also more than 20 Legendary Undead creatures and a Legendary Lich that was holding a Skeleton Staff high up in the air, all of whom were blocking Lin Li.

Lin Li and others did not hesitate at all, while the Undead Army had already rushed forwards like a surging tide. At this time, everyone knew that they only had one choice, and that was to go all out and fight. Regardless of how many Undead creatures there were in front of them, charging forwards was the only way they could have a silver lining. Yes, they had to go all out and not allow the Undead Army to stop them. They had to find a way out before the strong and powerful Undead creature awakened. Other actions would only cause them to fall into the abyss of death.

Lin Li summoned the Crimson Dragon and the Demon Gordon immediately. Before the two summoned creatures fought with the Undead creatures, Lin Li’s Helios’ Scepter had already shot out a dazzling ray of light. Huge ice cubes fell onto the Undead creatures from the air, and every one that landed would explode with extreme chilliness that caused the surrounding Undead creatures to freeze. They then shattered immediately with the sounds of glass breaking.

The level-20 magical Snowstorm was still exerting its power, but Lin Li had already raised the Helios’ Scepter again. With the end of the spell, a large ice ball was shot at the crowd. It spun at high speed and continuously sprayed hail at the Undead creatures, seemingly trying to slit them.

Lin Li did not consider preserving his mana at all. He continued to release Legendary magic one by one. The Snowstorm had just begun to show some signs of losing power, yet burning boulders already seemed to fall onto the Undead creatures like a meteor shower. As soon as the frequency of the falling boulders decreased, the Thunderbolt pillars crashed down again, while the Legendary Magic ice balls continuously condensed like low-level ice bullets. They continuously darted at the Undead creatures and harvested them like wheat.

After summoning the Crimson Dragon, Ujfalusi did not exert his own Tide of Death, but continued to perform serial Corpse Explosions. In the face of the enemy’s powerful Undead Army, his own Tide of Death would only be useful when summoning the last few Undead creatures.

Norfeller held his dagger and dashed towards two Legendary Vampires like a bolt of lightning. He was tackling two enemies, but he managed to hit one of them. Although he was also a Legendary Vampire, Norfeller grew after consuming the blood of wyrms. Not only was he faster, he was far stronger.

The silver dragon that Elder Randy had transformed into already collided with the three Humerus Wyrms forcefully, without any fancy technique and only with brute force. Faced with the attack of the Humerus Wyrms, he did not dodge, but instead seized the time to attack them.

The Legendary archer Gildor constantly stroked the bowstring with his fingers, and he managed to create a continuous series of attacks with his Seven Star Archery Skill. The arrows shot into the Undead creatures and shattered them into pieces. Culofen, who specialized in fire magic, stood beside Gildor, but he did not allow the injury of his right arm to affect his performance. His staff continuously glistened and Fire Rain surged towards the Undead creatures wave after wave.

A melodious song suddenly sounded, and a sharp arrow shot through the air before appearing behind the Undead Army and extinguishing the soul fire of a Legendary Lich. Princess Elune was not strong, and although the Song of Heart was infinitely powerful, the role it could play was very limited when faced with the Undead Army. However, the weaker Undead creatures became her targets.

The Winged Angel summoned by Cheyenne went against the Legendary Vampires who were also known for their speed. The sounds of collisions could be heard in the air. However, they could not see the Winged Angel and Vampires at all. Cheyenne waved his Dark Moon Staff in the air, and huge tornado raged across the Undead Army, causing the Undead creatures to be drawn into it without resistance, and thus containing them. They were then shredded into pieces.

Staring at the huge waves and the golden skeletons that were surging towards him, Lin Li immediately activated his Light and Darkness Domain. Under the shower of Holy Light, the golden skeletons burst with black fumes, and a few Angels of Light and Dark surged forward. Instead of fighting, they detonated and caused two Legendary golden skeletons to be destroyed and turn into ashes immediately.
