Strongest Necromancer Of Heaven's Gate

Chapter 609 The Real Threat [Part 1]

"""For the Clan!"""

The thunderous roar of the Orcs, who had been waiting for this day to come, reverberated throughout the surroundings, striking fear into the hearts of those who heard it and sending a shudder inside their chest.

Barca led the charge with a strike, and the Orc Raiders of the Orc Army led by Tanabur followed, also clashing against the Human army. All of them were out for blood.

Their Wargs leaped over the defenders holding the front line, and landed dozens of meters behind them, starting a massacre.

Oreg and the Orc Berserkers clashed against the Human formation with their weapons, hungering for the blood of their enemies.

Complete chaos erupted within the Human army as their formation broke apart due to the ferocity of the Orc's counterattack.

"Hold your ground!" Great General Garret shouted to rally his troops and regain control of the situation as the army was now fighting in close combat with the Blackrock Clan. "Follow the strategy we discussed! Rankers, attack your respective targets!"

After giving out his orders, the High-Ranking fighters of the Haca Dynasty clashed with the Orc Army and stopped their advance.

All the high-profile targets like Barca, Lady Avyanna, and the four Orc Warlords had teams designated to contain them once the Orcs reached their formation.

This was a well-detailed plan that Great General Garret had made in order to ensure that they would prevail against their enemies.

These teams were meticulously put together to counter the destructive power of the higher-ups of the Blackrock Clan, and he was sure that it would only be a matter of time before their targets were slain, or immobilized.

However, contrary to his expectations, his perfect plan started to crumble in the face of the Orcs, who for some reason were stronger than they initially expected.

'Dammit, the reports didn't say that Barca was this strong!' Ronan, who had tasted Barca's full-powered strike, propped himself up from the ground and looked at his Legendary Shield that now had a big dent in it.

A stinging pain was throbbing in his arm as he held the shield in his hand, which proved that even he was unable to escape Barca's attack unscathed.

'He is truly a Monster,' Ronan gritted his teeth as he ran to where the other High-Rankers were confronting Barca.

It was common sense that the Empyrean-Ranked Alpha Monster was the greatest threat on the battlefield, so their goal was to eliminate him as soon as they could in order to lower the morale of their enemies.

Just as Ronan was running towards the rampaging Barca, he noticed something that was happening on the battlefield, causing him to freeze on the spot.

"U-Undead?!" Ronan gasped in shock. "I thought Baronar was an Orc Shaman and not a Necromancer. What is happening here?!"

It was not only Ronan who was surprised at the sudden appearance of the Unholy Creatures on the battlefield.

Orcs that had died in battle stood up on the battlefield once more to protect their brethren who were about to be killed by the Humans.

The Orcs, who saw this scene, were surprised at first. But, after seeing that their fallen brethren were protecting them from getting killed by the Humans made them realize that even in death, they were fighting to protect their Clan.

This sparked a burning determination in the hearts of all the Orcs, which made their attacks fiercer, and more devastating than ever before.

'Where are these Undead coming from?' Great General Garret narrowed his eyes as he scanned the battle at the front lines. 'I never heard news that the Wanid Kingdom had Necromancers among their ranks.'

The Great General calmly raised his hand and gave an order to their Clerics to deal with the Undead, who were weak against Holy Magic.

"""Turn Undead!"""

Several Clerics shouted in unison as they pointed at the Skeleton Gangbangers in the distance, who were mercilessly cutting through their defensive lines.

A few seconds later, the Skeleton Gangbangers that were targeted by the Clerics, all turned to dust, making those who were fighting against them feel relieved.

However, before anyone could even celebrate, a chilling voice reached their ears.

"So, that's where you guys are hiding."

Black Lightning Bolts rained down from the sky, targeting the Clerics that were dealing with the Undead.

The Strategist of Lux's Covenant unleashed a barrage of Black Lightning Bolts that were fueled by the Abyssal Touch to the archenemy of his Master's army.

Zagan managed to eliminate a few dozen of the Clerics before he was forced to retreat. His forte lay in hit-and-run tactics, so he couldn't stay for long, or else he would be taken down by the mages, who had started to aim at him from the ground.

Great General Garret was about to issue another command when he suddenly paused and jumped off his warhorse in a hurry.

A second later, a Magic Cannonball landed on his location, killing his subordinates, who were responsible for carrying out his orders.

Great General Garret glared at the Head Engineer in the distance who had aimed the Magical Cannon in his direction.

"You! What do you think you're doing?!" Great General Garret shouted in anger as he looked at the man who was responsible for overseeing the operation of the Magic Cannons.

"I guess the title of Untouchable is not just for show," the Head Engineer said with a smile. "I don't know if you have Clairvoyance, Premonition, Intuition, or Future Sight, but it doesn't matter. I will find out soon enough."

The Head Engineer raised his hand, and several Shadow Warriors activated all 19 Magic Cannons at the same time.

The Engineers that were manning them earlier were now all lying on the ground, dead. These pitiful non-combatants didn't even know what killed them until it was too late.

Dust clouds rose up in the sky as the Magical Bombardment commenced. All the High-Ranking fighters, with the exception of Great General Garret, were on the front lines dealing with the Orcs.

They didn't expect that someone would attack them from the rear, so they were all taken by surprise.

Just as Great General Garret was about to order his men to deal with the Head Engineer and the Shadow Warriors who were attacking them from behind, he momentarily froze before stomping on the ground to launch himself into the sky.

A moment later, the dead bodies around him exploded, killing and injuring the Soldiers that were within the range of Lux's deadly skill.

From the sky, the Great General of the Haca Dynasty turned his head to the side and locked on the body of the red-headed teenager, who was looking back at him from the rear of the Orc Formation.

His intuition which had been sharpened by the countless campaigns that he participated in the past allowed Great General Garret to understand who the greatest threat on the battlefield was.

It was neither Barca nor the Orc Warlords that had tilted the balance of the war.

No.

It was none other than the Initiate-Ranked Necromancer, who at this very moment was summoning his Legion of Undead, while making the dead bodies on the battlefield explode, creating more casualties among the men under the Great General's command.
