Nameless King

Chapter 291 Enemy Of The Dead

"The undead? What are their weaknesses?" Wain asked.

This was the first time he had encountered the undead. Skeletons, as well as goblins, were considered monsters, but they had a dense relationship to some species.

"Quite a few, crushing weapons, explosions, and light, but they are weakly susceptible to most physical attacks and elements. Water, wind, fire, practically useless if the forces are equal." Elegan said and pulled a watch from his pocket.

He pressed a button, and several purple barriers appeared around the gate. The skeletons tried to break through it, but the barrier was strong and could withstand many attacks.

"Light... Are any of us specializing in the attribute of light?" Wain asked, but all he saw in response was the others shaking their heads.

Elves often used the power of light, but not the Dark Elves. Darkness was a powerful force, but not against the undead who were imbued with the energy of death.

'Hmm, I have a ring and one very powerful expendable item with the attribute of light, but it's hard enough to clear a Dungeon.'

"We don't have to enter a Dungeon. We can defend ourselves almost indefinitely. We'll only need a few dozen monsters to maintain the defense, which will change every couple of hours. That way, our overall power will increase over time, and we'll be able to prevail." Elegan said seriously.

"Yes, it's not a bad option, but there's something that worries me." Reto muttered, "We'll be able to contain the skeletons, but we don't know what other monsters are out there. If someone several times stronger than the skeletons shows up, we'll be in big trouble. To be overrun by Dungeon is the greatest shame."

"I agree. We need to break in there and kill their leader. Then the monsters will no longer fight back, and we will not only fight back but increase our strength. Having allies like the undead isn't a bad option." Wain said seriously, looking at the portal.

The skeletons looked weak and clumsy, but that was an illusion of their strange movements. The actions of creatures made of bone were different from flesh and blood.

"Damn, we could use an engineer in this situation to make light bombs." Elegan muttered.

As the skeletons tried to break through the barrier, more and more monsters from different parts of the Void approached the gate.

They were mostly ice, sand, and forest monsters and beasts. They discovered what had happened and wanted to protect their home from the invaders.

"Huh, I'm certainly no engineer, but I have something similar." Lui Bu said and pulled several potions of two kinds, yellow and red, out of his bag.

"What are these?"

"They are potions, but not ordinary potions, but attack potions. If you throw them, they explode on contact. They're practically bombs. I made some with the attribute of light and fire just in case."

"Isn't that wonderful? Really, it's hard enough." Reto muttered.

Wain nodded, and the Ring of Damned glowed brightly.

A light stone appeared in his hand; it was the Shard of Heaven's Fall. Wain could do serious damage even to Second Chronicle creatures with this item, and considering the skeletons were undead, the effect would be much stronger.

He also decided to use the Seal of Dark Light. This item could create an area in which everyone's attack power increased several times and defense decreased.

Wain decided that this was his only way to defeat the enemy leader. He had already regained some of his strength and was ready to fight and use one of the forms.

"Wain, I will go with you." Frigus said.

He understood Wain's intentions and was going to follow him.

"All right, Elegan, take down the barrier. I will not fight the skeletons and other monsters in the Dungeon. I'm heading for their leader, so you'll have to defend the place until Frigus, and I return."

"I hear you." Elegan nodded and removed the barrier with a flick of his finger.

Whooooooosh.

Wain and Frigus turned into flashes and headed for the gate through the horde of skeletons. The monsters reacted and swung their swords and sabers sharply, but Wain and Frigus had already entered the portal.

Elegan, Reto, Edena, and Lui Bu remained in the ice cave and several dozen fairly strong monsters.

The monsters and beasts immediately pounced on the skeletons. It should have been an easy victory, but the skeletons turned sharply around and attacked back. They didn't know what fear and pain were.

Bam.

One of the beasts ripped the skeleton apart with a powerful attack, but suddenly the scattered bones glowed brightly, and the skeleton resurrected. The same thing happened to the others.

"What is this?" Reto asked. He was shocked to see that their enemies could resurrect so easily.

"Damn, there seems to be a Lich in Dungeon, or even more than one. Skeletons aren't capable of regenerating themselves." Elegan muttered.

"Wain and Frigus will take care of that. We need to decide what to do with the skeletons. We can't defeat immortal opponents." Reto said seriously.

"Do we need to defeat them?" Edena asked, "It will be enough to disarm. They are immortal, not invincible. We should be able to make it work. The forest monsters and the ice monsters should be able to handle it."

"I see. You want to freeze them?"

"Yes, any ways and options will work. We have to try everything."

Elegan nodded and once again pressed the button on the clock.

This time a massive purple seal appeared over the skeletons, and they felt some serious pressure. The bones of the skeletons trembled, and they simultaneously fell and were pressed firmly to the ground.

This seal had gravitational power, but Elegan could not hold them back for long.

"Hurry up. My powers are not infinite."

Reto nodded and gave the sign. A multitude of monsters and several Dark Elves with the attribute of ice. They worked together to freeze the skeletons and tried to immobilize them.

They succeeded, but new skeletons emerged from the gate a few minutes later, more aggressive. Their eyes glowed red, and their weapons were coated with energy.
