Chapter 1460 The Dread Mansion IV



[You can now communicate with your party member, Equinox.]

[You can now communicate with your party member, Levin Cloud.]

"They have entered the same area as us. We can now call them." Creepysoo stated as he bashed a zombie with the Necronomicon.

"Fight more and say less. They will come to our area when they see the spells flying about." Peridot stated as she released ten fireballs towards the zombie horde. 

The two of them might be strong but the enemies in this area are all level 200 which means they cannot kill them easily. The undead might not tire but damage piling up cannot be easily restored as Peridot is not a healer herself. She cannot use healing magic towards the undead as she might kill them since the powerful healing magic that she possesses have the holy attribute.

Just as they were about to be overwhelmed by the enemies, a draconic roar suddenly erupted in the area. A fast shadow moved towards the battlefield that sliced up all the enemies that it encountered. A divine bird even descended and released a powerful blast of light that disintegrated undead that are low on health.

[You undead knights have been empowered by the Genesis Dragon.]

[All damage dealt using elemental magic will double.]

"Sorry as we were late." Adrian and Levin Cloud stated in unison.

"Less talking and more killing." Peridot stated as she released powerful spells left and right that decimated groups of enemies.

"Of course." Adrian and Levin Cloud replied as they defeated all the remaining enemies.

[You have defeated the fifth wave of enemies.]

[You have ten minutes of respite before the next wave comes in.]

"Now that we have free time, care to tell us what happened?" Adrian stated as Creepysoo gave the details on how they were trapped in the area they are now.

"I see. The fact that the undead that we are looking for has swallowed a whole village frightens me. Do you think that it has already become a Transcendent existence?" Levin Cloud stated.

"If it has become a Transcendent existence then a world message would have alerted all of us. The fact that a world message is not yet given means that it has yet to fully evolve. It might have started its transformation which is why we must defeat it before it evolves to its last form." Adrian stated.

"It is no longer a Dread Mansion but a Dread Village. The whole undead is basically this village. That dark looking castle in the middle is basically just the main body part like the heart." Levin Cloud stated as he used his eyes to see how the soul of the undead monster looks like.

The whole village is basically covered with the Dread Village's soul, but the 'heart' of the monster is the large castle located at the middle of the entire village. It is also in the inner area which means that they need to defeat all the hordes before advancing.

[The sixth wave of enemies is spawning.]

[Defeat 500 zombies, 200 Exploding Zombies, 300 Wraiths, 100 Banshees, and 100 skeleton knights.]

The whole area is suddenly covered with different undead, and some are even the evolved form of the previous ones. They were able to clear the sixth wave with ease as Adrian and Levin Cloud's magic supported them. Adrian can control the entire area with his arcane magic while Levin Cloud's magic could dissolve weak undead.

[You have defeated the sixth wave of enemies.]

[The seventh wave of enemies is spawning.]

[Defeat 500 zombies, 400 Exploding Zombies, 300 Wraiths, 200 Banshees, 200 skeleton knights, and 1 Death Knight.]

The next horde of enemies spawned but the enemies are no longer disorganized. The Death Knight that has spawned became the general that led all of the undead. The undead were no longer just a mess of monsters that charged towards Adrian's party. 

The Death Knight made sure to use formations and tactics as a way to defeat its enemies. The Death Knight made use of the Exploding Zombies to whittle down the health of all their frontline units while made use of the Banshees and Wraiths by having them use ranged magic. Adrian knew that they cannot defend like they used to which is why he retrieved Saena for the time being and summoned Dodu.

"Eat to your heart's content, my gluttonous cutie." Adrian commanded as he knew that Dodu has been very hungry as if it was preparing itself for its evolution.

Dodu did not even needed Adrian's command as it already enlarged itself and started coming down on the enemies like a hungry tide. The exploding zombies that dealt splash damage could not even keep Dodu at bay since they do physical damage. The only beings that could damage Dodu are the Banshees and Wraiths, but Kanlaon made sure to destroy all of them.

In the end, the Death Knight clashed with the Doom Knight Don Quixote. The Death Knight lost as it was not even a challenge for the powerful Don Quixote. They fought like actual knights as they did a duel without the interference of the other undead. 

[You have defeated the seventh wave of enemies.]

[The eight wave of enemies is spawning.]

[Defeat 500 zombies, 500 Exploding Zombies, 300 Wraiths, 300 Banshees, 200 skeleton knights, and 10 Death Knights.]

The eight wave is much like the seventh wave but there are now ten Death Knights that led the whole army. Each Death Knight commanded 50 zombies, 50 exploding zombies, 30 wraiths, 30 banshees, and 20 skeleton knights. It was a whole platoon that can deal great damage to any group, and this was tailored to four players.

If Adrian and the others were more in number, then they might be facing twice the number of opponents that they have now. Adrian told all of them that they would need to handle at least two platoons each. Adrian and Creepysoo volunteered to deal with three platoons as they can summon beings.

"I think I can thin the horde though." Adrian stated as he flew to the skies.

"Cascading Realm!" Adrian stated as his Quantum Cascade spell has already reached max mastery and evolved to a new and more powerful spell.

==

A powerful wave of energy covered the entire area but the undead did not even react. Adrian already expected this as his control is now covering the whole village itself. It could be said that the radius of effect has already surpassed 10 kilometers. Even Adrian did not expect such a range, but Paradox told him that it only became that large due to it evolving as well.

"Let us call upon their doom then! Vortex!" Adrian shouted as he released a small star from his palm.

The small star rose up in the air and stayed put for a few seconds until Adrian snapped his fingers. The small star exploded and turned into a large black hole while all of the beings in the area felt a strange phenomenon. Adrian tagged all of the undead as targets as the entire realm itself bent to his will.

Levin Cloud, Creepysoo, and Peridot saw the realm itself bend like a crumpled paper when Adrian snapped his fingers. The three of them thought that they were seeing things, but it actually happened as all of the undead even the Death Knights were affected. If Adrian only used Quantum Cascade, then he would have only been able to pick a thousand targets and not be able to sweep the death knights.

The image of a demon relishing the sights of its enemies being grinded inside a black hole could be painted. Adrian even flew using his wings which made the scene even more menacing as he partnered it with a smile. He might look cool with his smile, but one would quiver when they know the reason for it.

"Prepare for the remnants being ejected." Adrian stated as Peridot is already on it.

"I have already prepared the spell. You can look up." Peridot stated as she pointed at the gigantic meteor falling from the sky as she used the legendary tier Meteor spell.

The undead were spat out of the black hole and was smashed to smithereens by the meteor. Only the ten death knights were able to live as the other undead were killed. The ten death knights could only fight with their remaining life as Levin Cloud rained down a powerful holy attribute spell on them which turned them to dust.
