Strongest Necromancer Of Heaven's Gate

Chapter 675 Fight For Home And Country!

?

Countless white butterflies circled around the city, illuminating the darkness that had taken hold of the area for hundreds of years.

Lux hovered at the center of it all. The souls longing to regain their freedom all flew toward him, hoping to end their misery.

Gaap and all of Lux's Named Creatures watched this scene in silence. None of them dared to disturb this sacred ceremony that the Half-Elf had decided to initiate by himself.

Unfortunately, not everyone shared their sentiments.

A crack appeared a hundred meters away from the Half-Elf, revealing the figure of an Argonaut-Ranked Abyssal Black Dragon.

Without giving anyone time to react, the Black Dragon unleashed an Abyssal Dragon Breath at the Half-Elf, who was too focused on what he was doing to notice.

"No!" Gaap shouted as he hurriedly summoned his own Named Creature. But he was simply too far away, and his Summon couldn't move fast enough to save his Disciple, who was attacked in his blind spot.

Lux's other subordinates were also late to react, including Zagan, who was the fastest among the members of his Covenant.

Just as the Abyssal Dragon Breath was only a dozen meters away from the Half-Elf's body, a blue comet appeared out of nowhere, clashing against the Dragon's Breath and making it completely disperse.

When the light receded, a blue Wraith, wearing a crown, stood between the Argonaut-Ranked Dragon and the Half-Elf.

"Filthy creature, how dare you?" A cold voice filled with killing intent left the Wraith's lips.

It flew toward the Black Abyssal Dragon and kicked the monster away, sending it crashing toward the city.

From behind the blue Wraith, blue comets surfaced and flew past him, attacking the Black Dragon with a vengeance.

Wraiths, who were wearing knightly clothes, hacked, slashed, smashed, stabbed, and punched the Abyssal Creature, preventing it from taking flight.

However, the Black Dragon was still an Argonaut-Ranked Creature, so it was able to resist the combined attacks of the twelve Wraith Knights that tried to contain it.

The Abyssal Dragon let out a mighty roar, calling for reinforcements. Soon, dozens of Abyssal Wyverns descended from the sky in order to answer their Master's call.

The Wraith King, who had stayed behind to protect Lux from any danger sneered as he raised his hand.

"Rise, Warriors of Zangrila!" the Wraith King commanded. "Fight for our home and country! Fight for our freedom! Fight for our people! Send these foul beasts back to the Abyss!"

As soon as the Wraith King gave his order, something stirred within the ruined city that had remained dormant for hundreds of years.

From under the rubble, Wraith Soldiers arose, holding spears, swords, and arrows.

They were the soldiers of Zangrila that had fought until the bitter end back when the Abyssal King descended upon Elysium alongside his countless Abyssal Legion.

After dying, their spirits had mostly been broken, unable to even manifest. However, after hearing their King's summons, these broken and pitiful souls rose up from their slumber and regained a bit of their sanity.

It took them a moment to register what was happening around them.

When they saw the Black Dragon and the Black Wyverns trying to stop their people from entering the Cycle of Reincarnation, the fire of anger and hatred burned in their hearts.

Countless roars and warcries soon reverberated within the city as countless Wraith Soldiers flew toward the sky and engaged the Abyssal Creatures in a fight to the death.

Although they were only around Rank 3 to Rank 4 Wraith Monsters, none of them backed away. They were like a swarm of killer bees, ready to defend their nest till the last man.

Soon, an epic battle had taken place in the sky as the Abyssal Wyverns found themselves covered from head to foot by bloodthirsty Wraiths, whose weapons stabbed into their bodies repeatedly.

"Continue what you are doing," the Wraith King told Lux as he protected the Half-Elf's back. "I swear upon the honor of Zangrila that no harm will come to you."

Hundreds…

Thousands…

Hundreds of thousands…

More Wraith Soldiers emerged from the city, fulfilling their oath to their King and their Kingdom to protect everyone they held sacred in their lives.

"Don't let anyone touch our Master!" Asmomdeus roared as he revived one of the Abyssal Wyverns that had just died to become his mount. "Morpheus! Kill!"

The Death Tyrant gave an otherworldly chuckle as it unleashed Death Rays and Petrification Rays from its floating eyes.

Zagan, who was also protecting his Master, unleashed a barrage of black lightning bolts, targeting the closest Wyverns, making them howl in pain.

Diablo rode on his Nightmare Horse, which had gained the ability to fly in the sky, leaving flaming trails behind its back.

As Lux's First Born, he would not allow anyone to harm his Master, and this determination made his blazing eyes burn even brighter.

ALL-MITE, who was the strongest member of Lux's Covenant, smashed one Wyvern after the other, making them fall from the sky.

Ishtar, Pazuzu, Orion, Lazarus, and Revon all played their part to ensure that none of the Abyssal Monsters could even come near their Master.

"Bastard! How dare you!" Gaap, who had almost lost his Disciple, cursed out loud as he ordered the Octopath to wrap itself around the Abyssal Black Dragon, preventing it from going back to the sky.

While the Octopus Monster was pinning the Black Dragon down, two of the twelve Wraith Knights stabbed the eyes of the Abyssal Dragon, blinding it completely.

Roars of pain and anger spread in the surroundings as the Dragon called for more reinforcements.

This time, four Deimos-Ranked Gryphons appeared and immediately took part in the battle.

However, what awaited them was a Black Knight holding a black sword in his hand that reeked of death.

Beside the Black Knight was a lady wearing a red dress, floating harmlessly in the air with a red rose in her hand.

"Can you leave these little birds to me?" the Lady in Red asked. "It has been a while since Master summoned me, and I feel like playing for a bit."

"As long as they don't go anywhere near Master's disciple, you can have as much fun as you like," the Black Knight replied.

The Lady in Red giggled before brandishing the red rose toward the Abyssal Gryphons.

Immediately afterward, the four Deimos-Ranked Gryphons found themselves caught in a petal storm that sliced through their bodies like razors.

Black blood rained from the sky as the four Abyssal Creatures cried out in pain from having their entire bodies shredded by the beautiful red petals that showed no mercy.
