Chapter 557 Cap 555: Arrival At Capital Of The Undead(Chapter Preview)

I can see everyone's struggle from afar, Érica was facing the weakest enemies, but the most numerous.

I saw her casting spells from afar while her Infernal Flaming Beasts ran between the enemies, the spells used was a large magic circle with the size of hundreds of meters that began to glow with a black light that caused enemies to start on fire simply by being there, no kind of attack against the magic circle had any effect.

Érica also created fire tornadoes, fire arrows, and various other fire spells, her magic attacks seemed to have no effect against her Infernal Flaming Beasts which seemed faster in a fire filled terrain like this.

When these Infernal Flaming Beasts hit the enemies they started to catch fire, this cursed purple fire spread through the enemy's body, an attack that seems weak but leads to death.

Any attack that defeated these Infernal Flaming Beasts would cause an explosion sending a wave of dust fire all around.

I also noticed that whenever five or more of these Creatures made of fire were defeated, Érica would summon more.

The enemy army was already burning more than 70% and I didn't even get close to Érica even though she was at some distance casting area spells.

Irina was having a much easier time with her enemy, instead of using light attacks she preferred to use water attacks which turned acid when she activated the corrosion skill, the Lich did his best to defend himself, this showed that he still conserved some of his intelligence even though he was unable to speak.

Irina's spells even when they were defended still spread water around the Lich's surroundings, before he realized he had fallen into a trap, several spears of Water were sent from the puddles in the water around him breaking his barrier.

At that moment the water in the surroundings came together trapping the Lich inside where his body began to rapidly dissolve, the Lich didn't even have a chance to fight as a barrier of light was created around the water sphere.

"(She used the strategy that I also use, this grants a guaranteed and safe victory.)" (I)

Vanessa was fighting the Death Knight, she fought using magic attacks at point-blank range, the Death Knight was quite skilled and had quick reactions being able to dodge some attacks while her black bladed sword managed to cut a wound in one of the healthy wings of Vanessa.

The attack was almost useless as she quickly recovered from this wound, the Death Knight tried to hit her again, but Vanessa used her wings to deflect to the side as she placed her magic staff on the Death Knight's head.

Unfortunately, her magic was too slow and she took a kick giving the Death Knight time to turn around and stab his sword into Vanessa's stomach which resists the pain and creates a blade of light with her wings cutting the Death Knight in half.

As soon as I turned to Irius fighting the Giant Skeleton, I realized that this monster didn't have any skills, but he had a lot of strength and a strong body.

That Skeleton Giant used a tree that he must have ripped out of the ground like a club, his every attack creating a wind sword or a crater in the ground.

This monster was faster than expected due to its size, but Irius was still faster, unfortunately, none of his attacks did any damage to those bones.

Their fight turned into an endurance fight where the monster wasn't fast enough to hit Irius and he wasn't able to do damage to the Giant Skeleton's body, but such a battle would be Irius's defeat after a while, that's for that undead do not feel tired, even if it takes days Irius would at some point be tired.

But it seems that Irius realized that he couldn't defeat his enemy that way, so he aimed at the joints to separate the Giant Skeleton's knee bones causing him to fall.

Then he used a Charge with the shield to fly the Giant Skeleton's core inside his ribs, this made the Skeleton lose his strength quickly until he couldn't keep the bones of his body together, then the body crumbles into a pile of giant bones.

I was proud of Irius' quick thinking, he ignored the body he wasn't able to injure and ripped out the weak point by force.

I was also watching Ivan's fight against Living Armor.

Ivan had a Swordsman fight against his enemy but gained the upper hand quickly, Living Armor had a very aggressive fighting style with his sword and his mobility wasn't very flexible, so it didn't take long for Ivan to get the sword out of his hands Living Armor.

He stopped to deliver the final blow but suddenly jumped to the side while using his sword to parry an attack from behind, it was Living Armor's sword moving pk4 strap of its own.

"(I hadn't noticed that the sword was a monster either, it must be a Cursed Weapon.)" (I)

Ivan makes a magic circle from which skeletal hands emerge which he uses to grip the sword and impede its movement, but this distraction leaves him headless as Living Armor grabs Ivan's head and twists back as he pulls, but that doesn't stop the sword of Ivan passing through the monster's core causing it to fall like a pile of rusty armor.

After that Ivan takes the Cursed Sword and uses fire magic to cover the sword with high-temperature fire causing the sword to melt while maintaining a firm grip to keep from running away.

After the fight is over I go to them and keep a safe area to rest for a few minutes.

"Master, here is the Phantom Orb." (Hela)

I touch it to identify and confirm that the quality has increased to Ultra Rare (UR).

"Keep it with you for now, after everyone is better we'll head to the capital city." (I)

----------

After everyone was in better condition and I had collected everything that looked useful, including that Giant Skeleton's entire body, we continued our way to the nearby town.

In a short time we arrived at the city gates, I felt that the miasma and mist around here is even stronger even though the distance is not very great from the area where we fight.

Also, the gate in front of us was made of metal and was 10 meters high, but what worried me was to see that one side of the gate was on the dented floor covered in rust while the other side of the Gate had a large claw mark.

"Here we are, the capital of this crumbling Realm dominated by the Undead." (I)
