Chapter 1481 Moving forward
In the dark and violent giant space battlefield, under the command of Lei Xiao, our golem puppets are in high spirits and constantly attack the undead's defensive formation.
Among them, the cavalry commanded by Old Gary were especially strong, they continuously attacked the enemy's formation from the flanks, knocking many undeads and their shields to the ground, making it difficult for the enemy to take care of both ends.
But even so, the enemy's army still had a considerable number of heavily armored undead, and many of them were huge in size, with extremely heavy skeletons and a height of nearly three meters. They were obviously some kind of orc undead.
Under the resistance of these orc undeads who were holding heavy shields and were extremely good at defense, although our side was in high spirits, our progress was still slow and we did not have the situation to defeat the enemy in one fell swoop.
In addition, the opponent's bone explosion technique also caused considerable trouble to us. As long as one undead soldier fell, bone fragments would splatter and explode wildly, stirring up waves of deadly energy, which would directly blow away our surrounding golem puppets.
"Human boy, if we let the other party continue to delay, the situation will be bad."
Seeing this, the pink hooded man couldn't help but frown.
Not only the pink hooded man, but also Old Guy and the stone elves who were concentrating on controlling the golem puppet had the same solemn look.
Everyone understood clearly that while we were fighting fiercely with the enemy, our strong men in another space in the city were still killing each other under the instigation of the demon. If the situation continued, the result would be self-evident.
Moreover, the enemy's undead army is still huge in number. Even if we use Fleming's special power, we cannot offset so many undead soldiers. In other words, the time left for us is extremely limited.
"Hold the formation, there's nothing the human ants can do to you!"
Seeing that we were stagnant, the Lich Leader grinned sinisterly and continued to do the same thing, trying his best to stop our progress.
“Admittedly, my large-scale attack scrolls and sixth-tier summoning scrolls have indeed been used up, and the number of fifth-tier summoning scrolls is also running low, but this does not mean that I have no means to break the deadlock.”
In the center of our army's formation, Lei Xiao's expression was calm, and he had already made plans for the next step.
With a wave of Lei Xiao's hand, thousands of flying undead beasts appeared out of thin air and roared straight towards the enemy's army. This was exactly what Fleming had reserved.
As a beast-taming necromancer, he naturally carries a large number of undead beasts with him, including these flying monsters.
"Human boy, you do have other tricks!"
When he saw our flying undeads collectively take off, the pink hooded man's eyes first lit up, and then quickly dimmed.
At first glance, these flying undead have different shapes, but without exception, they are all small flying magical beasts below the second level, and among them there are even many warblers that have no attack power at all!
Noticing this, the pink hooded man's eyes popped out. Now was a critical moment that determined life and death. Why was this human boy ordering the old beast tamer to take out so many toys?
Not to mention a mere second-level magical beast, even a third-level magical beast would hardly pose any threat to a fifth-level undead!
"Hahaha, that kid is really at the end of his rope. He actually took out this garbage and embarrassed himself!"
The lich leader looked at the group of flying undead beasts approaching at a high speed without any threat, and his face became even more angry. He ordered the liches below: "The other party is just trying to distract us. Ignore those toys and continue to focus on the defense on the ground!"
Soon, as our flying undead beasts arrived above the enemy's camp, intensive magic explosions suddenly sounded in the enemy's camp.
Suddenly, balls of blazing flames rose up from inside the huddled Undead army. The waves caused by the demonic explosion blew away large groups of Undead, instantly disrupting the enemy's formation.
"what happened?"
Feeling the violent energy waves that continued to erupt in the opponent's camp, the pink hooded man rubbed his eyes, and then he confirmed that he was not seeing things.
After concentrating his mind, the pink hooded man further noticed that there were a number of black round objects the size of fists smashing towards the opposing camp. That was the source of these magic explosions!
As for where these black spherical objects came from, it goes without saying that they were thrown down by that group of toy-like second-level flying undeads!
In the air, the flying undeads kept loosening their bone claws that were tightly gripping the ball, and huge flames burst out on the ground one after another.
Because the size of the sphere is so small and the environment is dark, unless the flying undead release their bone claws, their existence cannot be seen at all!
"So this is the real purpose of the human boy!"
After finding out the reason for the incident, the man in the pink hood was excited, but a hint of doubt appeared on his face hidden in the hood.
What on earth is that palm-sized ball?
"That's an alchemical bomb."
Lei Xiao smiled faintly and answered the other party's doubts.
"Alchemical bomb? Don't fool me!"
The pink hooded man's voice became extremely surprised again and blurted out.
The knowledgeable man in the pink hood had naturally heard of alchemical bombs.
However, he clearly understood that as the level of the alchemical bomb became higher, its size should have become larger. In order to cause a magical explosion comparable to that of a fifth-level or even a sixth-level alchemical bomb, the alchemical bomb should be at least as big as a fairy or even a dwarf. How could it be so small? !
Noticing the pink hooded man's mood change, Lei Xiao did not continue to explain.
This is indeed not an ordinary alchemical bomb, but a brand new product created by the dwarves and talent lords by combining ancient dwarven technology with Blue Star technology. It has just been put into mass production and is also the first to integrate Blue Star technology and successfully apply it.
Unfortunately, he didn't have many in stock, only a thousand or so, most of which were level five, with only a few being level six, otherwise the lich army would have been destroyed long ago.
Moreover, another thing that puzzled me was that this new alchemical bomb with its level clearly marked could not be upgraded, which was completely different from the previous alchemical bomb.
As for why this happens, I don’t know at the moment, but I speculate that it is because it is not a native product of this world.
"In any case, with the help of these new alchemical bombs, we are already strong enough to tip the scales of victory!"
Looking at the opponent's originally well-organized camp being torn apart by the magic explosion, Lei Xiao nodded to our people who were giving orders.
In a short time, our army of golem puppets had already launched a massive attack, tearing open large holes in the enemy's line one after another.
"Quick, kill those damn things!"
In a panic, the Lich Leader quickly ordered the remaining undead to cover the air, but it was obviously too late to make amends.
Although most of our flying undead beasts were quickly shot down, the alchemical bombs had already all fallen into the enemy's camp.
As the demonic explosion continued, many of the remaining liches fell down with screams, which further aggravated the collapse of the undead army and made the entire battlefield a mess.
With the concerted efforts of all of us, it didn't take long before the golem puppet army quickly surrounded the remaining liches and undead in the center, completely reversing the initial battle situation.
"You human ants, you have no idea what you are about to face. You will eventually be crushed into dust in despair and fear!"
The lich leader saw that the situation was hopeless, but still said with a ferocious look on his face: "As long as that lord is willing, not only you, but even your land will eventually become a dead land!"
"Let's end this once and for all."
Lei Xiao naturally ignored the other party's words and commanded our army to charge forward.
"Human ants, I will drag you down with me even if I have to die!"
The lich leader let out a roar and rushed towards Lei Xiao with his remaining guards.
For a moment, the lich leader, whose strength was only one step away from the peak of the sixth level, had an extremely astonishing momentum, and his murderous aura was overwhelming.
"Don't even think about hurting His Majesty!"
Fleming, who was guarding beside Lei Xiao, snorted coldly, and the special power to resist the undead suddenly surged out.
Under the influence of that special power, the opponent's momentum immediately dropped by three points, and those personal liches and undead were controlled in place, leaving only the lich leader.
"Human boy, you have worked so hard, you don't need to take action against these little reptiles."
The pink hooded man, who had been eager to try, took a step forward, stretched out his white fingers and lightly touched the void. A majestic aura rushed into the sky, and the space around the lich leader suddenly shrank greatly, easily breaking the opponent's energy barrier and directly binding him in mid-air.
"Lich, it's time to pay back the blood debt you owed me!"
The giant sword in old Gary's hand drew two shining silver rays in the air, and huge cross-slashing waves shot towards the lich leader, directly tearing it into pieces and turning it into a foul-smelling black mist.
After the death of the lich leader, the other liches were quickly wiped out by our people, making the entire battlefield quiet again.
"Everyone in the Broken Valley Alliance, I have finally avenged you."
Old Gary's skeleton kept shaking, but he couldn't cry because he had no flesh and blood.
"Grandpa, all these years of sleep and loneliness have not been in vain!"
Youyou burst into tears, apparently recalling the scene before she fell asleep, with corpses everywhere and liches laughing wildly.
Looking at this scene, Lei Xiao and others couldn't help but sigh.
After a while, Old Gary and Youyou quickly realized that the battle was not over yet, and they calmed down.
Old Gary took a step forward and said to Lei Xiao with great gratitude: "Thank you, His Majesty, for helping us! But the real enemy is still ahead, please let us continue to lend a helping hand to His Majesty!"
After Old Gary finished speaking, Youyou nodded heavily, with determination on her fair face.
"You are too polite, old leader. Let's move on now."
Lei Xiao nodded slightly, and the group gathered the remaining golem puppets and flew towards the depths of the dark space together.
This space was more spacious than expected. After speeding for a while, the group found themselves back to the battlefield.
"It's a space loop. It seems that the devil wants to trap us here before the bewitching spell ends."
The pink hooded man spoke in a solemn voice.
"Sir, is there any way to break the cycle?"
Lei Xiao frowned and asked immediately.
Lei Xiao clearly understood that the current situation of our strong men outside must be very bad. Any longer they delay here will increase the danger for them.
"It's naturally difficult to break it by myself, but there is a way."
The pink hooded man hesitated for a moment, then gritted his teeth and said, "Forget it, I have to pay out my family's savings again. Anyway, it will all be put on your account!"
After saying that, the pink hooded man waved his hand, and a bunch of magic crystals flashing with gray light floated in the air.
Seeing this scene, everyone present couldn't help but open their eyes wide. Whether it was from the energy fluctuations or the crystal clear appearance without any impurities, it can be seen that these are obviously high-quality space magic crystals, and each piece is priceless!
"Get ready, I'm about to begin!"
The pink hooded man said this as he waved his staff and tapped the crystals, quickly connecting all the crystals together with a magic circle.
Then, under the chanting and manipulation of the pink hooded man, these suspended magic crystals scattered and eventually formed the outline of a giant gate.
As the pink hooded man's chanting became louder and louder, the space within the giant gate began to twist and deform rapidly. When it recovered, a completely new space emerged.
There was flickering white candlelight everywhere inside the huge gate, while other places were filled with darkness, so dark that you couldn't see your hand in front of you.
While Lei Xiao and others were still observing, the magic crystals that made up the door frame had already cracked and made crisp shattering sounds.
"Go in quickly, I can't hold on for too long!"
The pink hooded man obviously began to breathe heavily, and spoke hurriedly to Lei Xiao and others.
Hearing the sound, Lei Xiao and others did not hesitate and immediately flew in at high speed with a group of golem puppets.
When a group of people including the pink hooded man and more than a thousand golem puppets came in, the huge door behind them completely collapsed and dissipated into the air again.
"Is this the devil's lair?"
Youyou looked around cautiously, not daring to be careless at all, and everyone else looked the same.
Here, just like at the beginning, the magic ball of light could only barely illuminate the way ahead, as if the light source had been absorbed by the darkness.
When the quick formation was completed and the group was about to move forward, something strange happened. (End of this chapter)
