"Get everyone ready for battle immediately!"
Warning bells rang instantly. The soldiers rushed up the city walls and got ready in the quickest time possible. After driving off the first wave of the Undead Army, the soldiers were beaming with more confidence and less fear. They readied their bows and arrows forward while the silver-whitish light column blasted into the sky and illuminated every inch of the surface.
But this time, the situation appeared to be different as they heard deep noises from afar.
Boom… Boom… Boom…
It sounded as though a gigantic monster was slowly stomping through the surface. Everyone felt the solid city walls trembling. In an instant, the soldiers looked at one another worriedly. Unlike the group of newbies, Alex lifted his head and gazed straight into the distance.
At this moment, the truth unveiled itself before them.
"Oh my goodness…"
Many of them sucked in deep breaths and muttered under their breaths.
They were pale-green, obese, and sturdy creatures with the height of three Humans and thick like enormous boulders. However, this wasn't the worst. Their sturdy bodies were full of sewed-up scars like patched-up puppets. They had four muscular arms clutching enormous blades and their facial features were mashed up, where bloody flesh and eyeballs were dangling out of place. Alice turned around immediately and covered her mouth to hold herself back from throwing up.
More importantly, there wasn't only one of them.
Thousands of the same creatures emerged from the pitch-black shadow in slow, steady steps, but their massive bodies and disturbing appearances left the soldiers shivering.
Alex's pupils shrank into single lines. As expected, the Undead Army quickly came up with counter solutions after suffering the previous setback.
Abomination.
As one of the top five species with the highest defenses in the Undead Army, Abominations didn't have any weaknesses apart from their slow-moving speed. Alex didn't spot them previously because they weren't suitable for raids. But their formidable powers would be displayed when it came to besieging a city.
Abominations were covered in rotten flesh, where the explosions from magic arrows wouldn't deal lethal damage. Not only that but when they died, they would also explode and shroud the place in a putrid and poisonous stench. From the record, it was clear that the corpses of these bastards would burst out into innumerable blood maggots: they could be considered the most disgusting of all disgusting existence.
The Skeleton Guards following closely behind the Abominations weren't easy to deal with either. They were the upgraded version of the Skeletal Warriors and their attacks and defenses were stronger by a hundred times. Alex immediately understood their intentions as soon as he spotted the Abominations. It was apparent that the Undead Army would get into a besieging formation. Behind the Skeleton Guards were the Necromancers, Archers, and followed by the Gargoyles…
"Grrr…!"
As though proving Alex's guesses, the furious growls from wild animals sounded from afar. Shortly after, countless pitch-black figures as though thick, heavy dark clouds flew forward. That was the Gargoyle Legion that he had been waiting for. Unlike the weak Bone Griffins, the iron-solid Gargoyles could be considered the hegemons of the sky. Even though their levels weren't high, their solid body could withstand damage from most spells. Besides, they could also use their razor-sharp teeth, claws, and tails to rip everything apart. At this moment, the Gargoyles were soaring in the night sky and heading toward the Fortress.
"Hmm?"
Alex was taken aback after spotting their flag. It didn't belong to Rairhan, the Death Knight. Instead, it was an entirely different white skeleton flag.
But from the record, Alex recalled who it belonged to—'Sinister Death'.
An intermediate Necromancer symbol.
What's going on?
Alex was sure that it was Kade's Death Knight army previously and even though they had revised their formation, this war zone should still belong to Kade's subordinate.
'Why did they…'
Suddenly, Alex's eyes glinted!
'Why am I so foolish? Didn't the Dali Kingdom attack the Mainland for this purpose?!'
"Maggie!"
Alex turned around and yelled without any hesitation. A petite girl with a golden ponytail ran out of the crowd and scuttled toward him.
"Yes, Leader?"
The corner of Alex's lips perked up into a smile. He extended his hand and beckoned to her.
"Wanna go and have some fun with me?"
"Sure!"
Maggie exclaimed in excitement. She clenched her fist and nodded. On the other hand, Cecilia turned to Alex in astonishment.
"Mr. Alex? What are you two gonna do? The enemies are…"
"Kade's troops have retreated. This is the best time to eliminate all the threats before us!"
Alex didn't explain too much as it would be too time-consuming to explain.
"From now onward, I will leave Madeline with full responsibility here. All you guys have to do is act following her commands. The enemies are the subordinates of the Necromancer. Cecilia, prepare for full spell suppression. Alice, the Abominations have a long attacking range. You and your squad must put up defenses in the quickest time possible!"
Alex extended his right arm and dazzling wings appeared on his back. On the other hand, Maggie also emanated a pure, white radiance. Then, the light rays coalesced on her back and formed a pair of tiny wings.
"Let's go! Maggie!"
Maggie is a Grandmaster battle healer just like Luna, Besides her small height around Gracier's height, it reminded Alex of his sister he dearly missed. It was why he had taken a liking to Maggie, he was his sister far away he missed and she was crazy for battle just like a certain Saintess, they looked alike.
Alex shook his head as flew through the air.
Suddenly, he heard Silveria's voice.
〖Alex, have you never considered General Kade to be the head of the numbers under Bahamut's clone?〗
This question forced Alex to a momentary stop.
''!?"
Maggie was confused but Alex was too busy to entertain her.
It was not like he hadn't considered this but just hoped it was not true because it would mean Bahamut's clone was the dark dragon ruling the Dali Kingdom, this would be tough.
''Yes I have considered it but there is no confirmation. Well, we'll see.'' Alex resumed flying.
