291 Pride Of Solaris [Part 1]
"Kill!" Tarquin pointed his sword towards the smaller Death Tyrants as his right hand man raised the banner of his kingdom high in the air.
""Kill!""
The King of the Kingdom of Gedge charged bravely towards the right side of the battlefield, as his army pierced through the zombie horde like a hot knife cutting through butter.
"For the Alliance!" Terence roared as he pointed his sword towards the left flank of the battlefield. "Charge!"
""Charge!""
The King of the Kingdom of Lockridge bravely stood at the forefront of their formation as his warhorse trampled everything that stood in his way.
"I know that all of you are exhausted to the point that you find it hard to even stand," Lux said as he addressed the three factions that were now working together as one. "Many have tried to conquer the Sacred Dungeon and failed, but today is different. Today, we stand as one.
"Today we stand not as the members of the Rowan Tribe.
"Today we stand not as the Barbarian Tribe.
"Today we stand not as a Guild.
"Today, we stand as Solaians!"
Lux pointed at the Monstrous Terror Death Tyrant who floated at the center of the enemy formation, deep in the horde of zombies that were still increasing in numbers.
"Today, is the day we make history!" Lux roared. "Today, we make our stand!"
Lux's charismatic voice made everyone feel something warm coursing through their bodies as all of their passive abilities stacked with each other.
They had all formed a single party, allowing those with certain abilities that affect groups to boost everyone's stats.
This increase included attack and defense, as well as other status increases and resistances, making everyone feel as if they were being embraced by a gentle sunlight, while a soothing breeze passed through their exhausted bodies.
"Warriors of Solaris!" Lux shouted as he buffed everyone with all of his active skills, which were also being done by the other members that were in their party. "Today we fight! For Honor!"
""For Honor!""
"For Country!"
""For Country!""
"For Glory!"
""For Glory!""
Einar held his War Axe firmly in his hands, Vall had already crouched down in preparation to charge at the Monstrous Terror Death Tyrant, and Lux covered his body entirely with the Favonius Legacy Armor.
This was the armor that was worn by the first founder of Leaf Village, and it bestowed upon its user the power of the Wind Element.
Lux created a dome of air in front of Vall in order to allow the Elegant Golden Jumping Spider to run faster, without worrying about air resistance.
Everyone else, who was mounted on their horses, held their reins tightly. Cai was already in its Hildivisni form, and ready to charge the moment Lux gave the signal.
"Solians!" Lux roared as he imbued the power of wind to everyone in their party to increase their speed, and wind resistance. "Kill!"
""Kill!""
The Elegant Golden Jumping Spider sprang towards the Monstrous Death Tyrant like a rocket, leaving behind the rest of their group.
Diablo took the helm of the charge, while riding on its Nightmare Horse, taking the place Lux had assigned him.
Lux's plan was to distract the Monstrous Terror Death Tyrant before their main force came in. He wasn't worried about the others because Diablo's attack power was increasing at a rapid pace.
Due to how many zombies were dying in the surroundings, as well as the soldiers that came from the two kingdoms that had come to assist them in battle, it would only be a matter of time before Diablo's damage reached the six digits.
When that time came, Lux's Skeleton Rider, as well as the Rock Golem, Orion, would help Lux deal the damage that was needed to bring their opponent down.
Vall didn't even bother fighting against the zombies that were blocking their way. He just jumped, and crushed anything where he landed on as he moved forward at a rapid pace.
When they were only hundreds of meters away from their target, the Monstrous Terror Death Tyrant locked its eyes on them and shot several different colored rays at the approaching Giant Spider.
Fortunately, Vall was moving very fast, allowing him to evade the Death Rays with ease.
When Lux fought Vall, he had already acknowledged the latter's speed, which was why he asked him to become the mount that would allow him, and Einar, to deal damage to the Death Tyrant while constantly on the move.
With the power of the Wind helping them increase their speeds, the Elegant Golden Jumping Spider's speed rose to the next level.
Death Tyrants didn't really have any blindspots because of the ten, red, glowing orbs that freely moved around it, and one big central eye that allowed it to use its other special ability which prevented anyone from regenerating on the battlefield.
However, being able to see everything and being able to react on time were two separate things.
As if to prove this point, Vall lunged at the back of the Death Tyrant and unleashed a venomous bite on its head.
Einar activated his Rage ability, similar to Berserk, which allowed him to deal more damage to his enemies for a brief period of time.
Swinging his War Axe with all the strength he could muster, the Barbarian was able to deal two Fury Slash before Vall leapt away to evade the Death Rays that were shot at them at point blank range.
Lux, on the other hand, didn't let the opportunity slide and unleashed two Dragon Claws, tearing off parts of the Beholder's skull, making it scream in pain.
The Power of the Abyss was a foreign power that wasn't exclusive in the world of Elysium. Because of this, it dealt true damage to anything it touched, with the exception of the Apex Creatures in the world like Dragons, Phoenixes, and other creatures that stood at the very top of the food chain.
The angry Death Tyrant fixed all of its eyes on the fast moving giant spider and unleashed several rays of light, with the intention of slowing it down. However, Vall had already anticipated this would happen, so he had already spun several silky threads on the surroundings, allowing him to make evasive maneuvers in the blink of an eye.
For two minutes, the Death Tyrant received a one-sided beating before it decided that enough was enough.
As if sensing that the Death Tyrant was about to unleash a devastating attack, Vall crouched its body low on the ground, and lunged under the Death Tyrant's body, as soon as he saw the giant red eye on its white Skull glow eerily.
At the same time, the Death Tyrant unleashed a cone of negative energy in front of it, turning the land in front of it completely black. Its eyes had also fired the multi-colored lights, two of which were Death Rays.
This combination attack was very scary because not only did it affect a wide area, those who were unlucky enough to die under this cone of deathly energy would instantly turn into zombies, becoming the Death Tyrant's servants.
After missing its target, the Death Tyrant turned its body and looked down on the ground, where the Giant Spider was crouched down.
Its eyes saw three Half-Elves, and one Barbarian, who were in the midst of unleashing their strongest attacks.
"""Dragon's Breath!"""
"Primal Slash!"
Golden flames, tinged with a reddish glow slammed into the giant eye of the Monstrous Terror Death Tyrant, making it scream in pain.
The other eyes didn't stand idle, and once again shot their Death Rays at the Giant Spider, but as soon as Lux and Einar unleashed their attacks, Vall had already jumped away, evading the Death Tyrant's counter attack.
It was at this moment when the ground under their feet trembled. Lux's Avenger, Orion, had arrived and gave a mighty roar before jumping up to the air with his right arm pulled back in preparation to unleash one of his strongest attacks against the hated enemy that had killed it repeatedly over the past several days.
"Gaia Smash!"
An otherworldly scream rang out of the Valley of Death as Lux's reinforcements had finally arrived to help them attack the Boss Monster, whose deathly-red-eyes were looking at them with undisguised fury.
"Hellfire Annihilation Slash!"
Diablo's Nightmare horse leapt through the air, allowing the Skeleton Rider to unleash its strongest attack against the Death Tyrant, who was still reeling from the blow it took from the Rock Golem that had timed its attack to make contact right after his the Half-Elf's Dragon's Breath.
Hellish flames erupted from the tip of Diablo's sword, piercing the Death Tyrant's eye, dealing very high damage that had reached the six digits.
The floating eyes glowed brightly as they aimed at the Skeleton Rider, who was unable to dodge their combined attacks mid-air.
However, before these eyes could even launch their Ray Attacks at one of the greatest threats in their existence, the Death Tyrant's massive body suddenly moved forward, canceling the ray attacks that were just about to be unleashed in Diablo's direction.
Lux's Demonic Defender, Pazuzu, stood in the distance holding his Silver Shield in front of it. Since the skill, Duel [EX], forced its enemy to exchange one blow with him, the Death Tyrant charged towards Pazuzu with its giant mouth open.
"Wild Rush!"
Cai fearlessly charged at the Death Tyrant and slammed its tusk into its body and embedded them into the giant white skull, which knocked it back for a few meters.
Right after that, several magical spells descended from the sky, and exploded on the Death Tyrant's face, pushing it back for several more meters.
The young men and women, who had accompanied Diablo to break through the zombie horde, had finally reached the main battlefield.
Although they knew that the help they could give their leaders was limited, none of them decided to back away.
They were making their last stand, and as long as they still drew breath, they would use everything in their power to end the battle they started and defeat the Monstrous Terror Death Tyrant, that stood in their way.
