Strongest Necromancer Of Heaven's Gate

Chapter 507 Kill In Our Master’s Name!

When Lux and Nero left to fight their duel, the Ammarian Army took this opportunity to attack the Yelan Army.

Their main concern was Lux's Corpse Explosion Skill, which gave them a sort of invisible pressure that weighed on their hearts. They even hoped that Nero would be able to kill the Half-Elf, so they would no longer need to worry about him.

Since they were all busy fighting against each other, they could not spare any of their attention on the duel between the two teenagers. For them, the enemy in front of them posed more danger than the fight between the teenagers.

Just as expected, the Yelan Army was at a great disadvantage when it came to numbers.

The size of the Yelan Kingdom was only a third of the Ammarian Kingdom, which gave them the disadvantage in manpower. Even though the Ammarian Army had lost two Generals and several Rankers, their military might was still stronger than the Yelan Army.

As the fight went on, the brave warriors of the Yelan Kingdom were slowly being pushed back. The battle between the two armies was so fierce that thousands of people died every minute.

Great General Watson, General Carran, and General Fahad were all fighting on the front lines, helping boost the morale of their troops with their mere presence.

Although they were slowly being pushed back, the Yelan Army fought tooth and nail with their enemies, making the Vanguard of the Ammarian Army feel as if they were facing an army of people who weren't afraid to die.

"Impressive," Great General Gideon said as he watched the ongoing battle from on top of his mount. "But, how long will you be able to last?"

Great General Sherlock, who was watching the battle from the top of his elevated platform, narrowed his eyes because he understood that the Ammarian Army's advance was slowly gaining momentum.

'Should I give the order to retreat?' Great General Sherlock thought.

Just as he had made up his mind to order a retreat, he saw something out of the corner of his eye.

A dust cloud could be seen in the distance, and from its size, he could tell that there were at least a few hundred riders headed in their direction.

Great General Gideon also noticed this sudden change in the battlefield and frowned.

'It's coming from the direction where Nero and that Half-Elf had their duel,' Great General Gideon mused. 'Is their fight over already?'

Great General Gideon was very confident that the one who would emerge victorious in the duel was none other than Nero. After all, the latter was a Ranker, and his opponent was a mere Grade A Apostle.

Even so, his sixth sense was telling him that the approaching dust cloud was very suspicious, so he ordered the soldiers on the leftmost flank of their army to take a defensive position.

When the dust cloud neared their location, Great General Gideonnand Great General Sherlock were finally able to see what kind of riders were approaching their ongoing battle.

""Skeleton Riders!""

Both Great Generals gasped, but for different reasons.

One was out of delight, the other was out of surprise.

Great General Sherlock chuckled after seeing the Skeleton Riders because there was only one Necromancer on the battlefield, and he was fighting on their side.

Lux and Eiko, along with their clones, used the skill Skeleton Make to create Skeleton Horses for their Skeleton Gangbangers.

Behind these Skeleton Riders were hundreds of Zombies that Diablo and Asmodeus had painstakingly collected whenever there was a battle in the Great Plains.

Originally, they were meant to be used as cannon fodder for Lux's Corpse Explosion Skill, but since Great General Watson and Great General Sherlock had agreed to use the bodies of their fallen soldiers to activate the devastating skill, the Half-Elf no longer needed to hold back and revived the dead to attack the left flank of the Ammarian Army.

Diablo and Einar led the charge, with Diablo at the front, holding a shield and blocking any incoming attacks toward the Barbarian Prince, who had an important role to play.

Einar rode alongside Lux's first Named Creature and raised his War Axe high as he gathered all the strength he could muster. When they were only dozens of meters away from the Ammarian Army's defensive line, Diablo moved to the side, giving Einar space to unleash his strongest attack.

"Storm Breaker!" Einar roared as he threw his War Axe, which was imbued by the power of flames, into his enemies.

The War Axe flew so fast like a cannonball and headed straight towards the Ammarian Defenders, who had all raised their shields to block the incoming attack.

When the Axe collided with the shield of the Defenders, it created a powerful explosion, sending everyone at the front flying backwards and pushing the rest to the side, due to the power behind the force in Einar's attack.

Before the Ammarian Soldiers could even close the gap that was left open by their injured comrades, the cavalry of Undead, led by Diablo, arrived in front of them, and tore through their ranks like a bowling ball hitting several bowling pins.

'I almost forgot that all of these Skeleton Gangbangers are Rank 4 Monsters,' Einar mused as he raised his hand to call his Axe back to him. 'Also, that Death Knight is not so simple. Fortunately, I am on the same side as them.'

After helping Diablo and the Skeleton Riders break through the Ammarian Defenses, Einar returned to where Lux was observing the battlefield.

He was confident in his strength, and he believed that as long as he wasn't fighting against a Ranker, he would be able to fight anyone without suffering a loss. However, war wasn't a one-on-one battle.

Einar understood that charging alone towards tens of thousands of soldiers was suicide.

Only Lux's Undead Army would not hesitate to perform such a suicidal method because they had no life to lose.

"Whirlwind Slash!" Diablo swung the Mythical Sword, Blood Moon, which was Randolph's prized weapon.

He had given this sword to Lux, to help the Half-Elf handle the tough challenges he was going to face after leaving Leaf Village.

In the hands of ordinary warriors, Blood Moon was an exceptional weapon.

However, in the hands of Diablo, whose attack drastically increased with the number of the dead people in his surroundings, Blood Moon was like a weapon of mass destruction that allowed the Death Knight to regain the health he had lost because of the sword's "Lifesteal" ability.

It only took Diablo a single swing of his sword to annihilate dozens of the Ammarian Soldiers in front of him.

Right now, his attack stats had already stepped into the hundreds of thousands, making him a threat to everyone, including the Rankers among the Ammarian Army.

However, before Great General Gideon could even give an order to one of his Commanders to eliminate the Death Knight, a blood-curdling roar erupted at the frontline of the battlefield, where the bloodiest battle was being fought.

Without any warning, a giant bloody hand emerged from the ground and swiped at the soldiers that the Yelan Soldiers were fighting against.

A moment later, a twenty-meter tall Blood Golem rose up from the blood-soaked battlefield and roared towards the sky.

"What in the heavens…" General Herodes who was also fighting in the front lines muttered when he saw the towering creature that he was only seeing for the first time in his life.

"Go," Zagan ordered the Blood Golem as he pointed at the Ammarian Army. "Kill in our Master's name!"

The Blood Golem let out another roar before charging towards the enemy soldiers like a berserk bull on steroids.

Blood oozed out from its body with each move it made, but this blood loss was immediately replenished by the blood of the people that died in its wake.
