Chapter 1131 Something Is Wrong!
Chapter 1131 Something Is Wrong!
"Come forth!" without thinking about it, I first let my fallen gods clear a zone before filling it entirely with my warriors.
Without any pause, I went towards another zone and did the same. For the next few hours, I kept clearing zones and spreading warriors all over, turning this place into a brutal battleground.
"Something feels wrong…"
After spending hours deploying a large number of warriors in various zones, I felt like the number of these zombies didn't decrease for a single bit.
It was indeed weird. I was sure I deployed tens of millions across a vast space of this old battleground. However it ended up without leaving a single effect over these zombies.
It wasn't right. I knew lots of lives were lost here, but was it enough to make up for the killed zombies on the hands of my warriors?
Or was there something killing my warriors?
I had to teleport back to the earliest zones I left my warriors at. When I arrived there, I saw nothing out of the ordinary.
My warriors already cleaned a large area and kept their ground. They lost part of their numbers, but it wasn't enough to make up for the losses the zombies suffered.
On the other hand, my warrior's killing speed was indeed efficient. Just in the past few hours, the amount of zombies they killed was enough to form a grand mountain.
But seeing this didn't make me feel any happiness. Instead I was feeling more gloomy and worried about the reason behind the stable number of zombies.
I counted back, and I found that I scattered at least twelve large groups of warriors like this one. If things went right, then this was enough to get rid of the zombies and make their numbers dwindle.
But in fact that didn't happen. And that made me turn my eyes towards a certain direction; the centre of all this.
I scattered the warriors around in a huge triangle, surrounding this huge war zone.
The central zone was where that grand portal lay, and it was where the last huge battle happened. I tried to recall, but I couldn't remember if the number of forces falling here was really in the tens of millions or not.
However this didn't seem likely. This battle happened at the early stages of the apocalypse where my forces weren't that big enough to handle tens of millions.
And the enemy never had the chance to summon such a number as well.
"Time to roam this place again," as I knew something was amiss and I lacked any clear understanding of it, so I decided to start searching by flying around.
The dark realm bone I activated before was enough to keep burning for days.
I refused to believe that the colossal zombie would still be in one piece after this hit. And knowing I couldn't go there and explore the zone for days, I could focus more on other dangerous spots in my kingdom.
So I started flying around while I looked for any clue about what went wrong.
In fact I didn't need to look for so long. Just after ten hours of flying around, I came upon the source of this problem.
What lied in front of me was something unbelievable! I was already at the central part of this old battleground.
A grand portal was hovering on top of this place, exuding flashes of light. With each flash, tons of monsters would be gushed out from it on the ground.
Before this, and when I inspected this grand portal again, nothing like this happened. This portal should have been under the control of Berserkers.
So what exactly happened here? Why was this portal gushing out such an endless stream of monsters?
What happened next was expected. The monsters once arrived got a grand welcome from the zombies all over the place. In mere seconds, hundreds of thousands or even millions of new zombies were formed.
This place turned in such a way to become like an active den. The portal served to provide new blood to replenish the great losses zombies suffered all this time.
So this was the main source of this problem. I furrowed when I looked at this grand portal. If it was before, I could simply go over there and work my magic to control it.
However, just as the portal was flashing with light and provided endless monsters for the zombies to turn, it was also protected with a thick veil of red beam coming from high above.
The angels… They already provided protection for it!
"Should I use another bone then?" I contemplated this before discarding the idea. If I went around and used my already rare dark realm bones to exterminate all the hot zones in my kingdom then I'd end up exhausting my reserves.
And without a good source for these bones, I couldn't risk losing too much of them.
"Fine… You used such a dirty trick to counter my attack, let me play along with you then… Come out!" This seemed like bad news for me. However if I couldn't crush that portal for now, then I'd crush the zombies around using my warriors.
Without the zombies around, throwing tons of monsters here wasn't going to work.
? By simply killing all the zombies around and establishing a protective shield and a large number of protecting warriors, these monsters were going to be sent here without any benefit.
In fact I didn't fear facing monsters, on the contrary I preferred dealing with them than dealing with zombies. At least these monsters didn't have the ability to turn my dead warriors into monsters.
I first used my Thundering Might pillar's skill repeatedly. A thick layer of many shields overlapped over each other and defended this zone.
Then I took tons of my warriors and released them around. I didn't stand out and also circled the area. Using my fallen gods and other warriors operating on my chariot's different weapons, hell rained on top of many zombies and monsters without differentiation.
After just half an hour of the beginning of this onslaught, at least one tenth of the entire zombies and monsters here were taken out already.
"It's time to deal with you," I knew I cut off the defending laser beam coming from high above for now. So this portal was ready to be taken under my control.
"Stay away, you fiendish human!" Just when I got closer, I heard a roaring shout coming from the other end of this grand portal before a grand hand moved and slapped my chariot like it was a fly.
This happened all of sudden and without any warning. I got most of my attention over the ongoing battle around and the shields preventing the destructing and defending beams of rays to penetrate through.
All I felt was for my chariot to be sent hard and far away while spinning. At the same time I saw many cracks appearing all over it.
The simple slap was mighty enough to send my chariot far away, far beyond my shield's protection.
*Boom!*
And when that happened, it seemed like these angels were waiting vigilantly for such a mistake and rained my chariot with a series of red beams that kept chasing after my chariot.
"Damn fierce!" I didn't even wait for my chariot to stabilise while moving it in the zigzag course. This helped to save it from the impending danger from these beams.
If it was another time, then I wouldn't fear these beams. But after suffering such a grand hit from that arm, the shield was already on the verge of cracking and breaking down.
Given enough time, my shield would regenerate and heal itself. It wasn't just a matter of stored energy, but it was a matter of speed of recovery.
If I left my chariot being hunted down like this by red beams, then things would take an ugly turn. So it was better to escape the impending fall of these beams for now.
*Rumble!*
Just when my chariot regained control and stood erect and firm, I heard a frightening rumble coming from inside my shields.
Looking up there made my scalp numb! That hand which sent me flying for miles earlier was now extending itself and hitting fiercely against the thick layers of shields around.
With each simple wave, a few shields got smashed down without any resistance. It looked like that huge arm was peeling my shields like a knife peeling an onion layer by layer.
I had to get back right now or else everything I did there would be lost.
*Boom!* *Boom!* *Boom!*
Just as I was moving my chariot in an unexpected route to evade the falling red beams, something unbelievable happened.
All over the part of the grand shield facing me, layers of red beams fell and formed such an impregnable layer of red carpet that stood between me and the inside of the shields.
