Strongest Necromancer Of Heaven's Gate
Chapter 937 Misfortune Smiles Upon You [Part 3]
"Don't slack off, boys!" an Old Lady holding onto a wooden cane shouted. "If we fail to push back these two critters, we're all gonna die. Put your backs into it!"
"We're doing what we can, you old hag!" a man who was nearly two meters tall and busy shooting at the two Monsters with his bow and arrows shouted back. "Stop yelling and start helping!"
"You bastard, who are you calling an Old Hag? You have a death wish?!"
"I don't. But if I run out of arrows, I'm gonna use you as a projectile!"
Similar scenarios were happening on the ramparts of the City Walls as the Exiles cursed, shouted, and encouraged each other to fight with everything they had.
The King of Exiles, who went by the name Louis, frowned as the two Monsters continued to advance toward their city even with all the able-bodied Exiles in the city doing their best to keep them at bay.
"Everyone, prepare to engage!" Louis ordered.
As soon as he gave the signal, he, along with the four other Saints of the City, all flew toward the two Monsters and engaged them in close combat.
Just like their earlier assignments, three of the Saints fought with the Blood Ogre, while Louis and Aramis fought against the Golden-Eyed Naga.
Seeing their King fighting on the Front Lines, the people cheered from on top of the ramparts and continued to support them with cover fire.
Suddenly, a giant shadow appeared above their heads, making the Exiles all look up at the sky.
There, they saw something similar to a Bone Dragon, which made their hearts shudder inside their chest.
They thought that the giant Monster was another creature that had escaped the Inner Sanctum and was going to attack them.
However, before they could even attack the Monster, it unleashed a Dragon's Breath at the Blood Ogre, catching everyone by surprise.
Louis gave the Dracolich a side-long glance before giving an order not to attack it.
But the surprise didn't end there.
The gates of the city opened, and countless Skeletons charged out of it. There were also Jade Golems and creatures that were similar to Orcs holding tower shields.
"Make sure to not hit those Skeletons!" the Old Lady shouted. "I don't know where the Undead came from, but they are on our side. Since they've come to help, make sure to not attack them!"
The Old Lady didn't have to remind everyone as everyone already knew what to do the moment the Skeletons surged out of the gate.
However, something happened that gave them goosebumps.
Nightstalkers and Lich Revenants climbed up the City Walls and joined the defenders in using long-ranged attacks at the two Calamity-Ranked Monsters.
Some of the Exiles backed away in haste until nearly half of the Ramparts were occupied by the Undead Army.
"Be at ease," Asmodeus said. "We are on the same side. At least for now."
The Old Lady looked at the Lich King with a frown on her face. "Who are you and why are you helping us?"
The Lich King chuckled before giving the Old Lady a slight bow.
"My name is Asmodeus, and I am a Lich King," Asmodeus introduced himself. "As to why I am doing this, it's simply because it is what my Master wanted. Since it's his wish to help defend the city, then we will do everything in our power to make it happen."
The Old Lady pondered for a bit before asking the Lich King another question.
"And who is your Master?" the Old Lady asked.
Asmodeus pointed at the Half-Elf that was standing on top of the Dracolich that was flying in the sky.
"My Master's name is Lux Von Kaizer," Asmodeus replied. "Make sure to thank him later, okay?"
Asmodeus then shifted his gaze to the Blood Ogre in the distance. He knew that targeting both Monsters wouldn't help in the long run, so he decided to focus their firepower on one target only.
"Aim at the Blood Ogre," Asmodeus ordered. "Open Fire!"
Ishtar, Lazarus, Morpheus (Death Tyrant), the Nightstalkers, and the Lich Revenants all unleashed a deadly barrage that forced the Blood Ogre to go on the defensive.
Lux, who was riding on top of Avernus, raised his right hand, and a tombstone that was six meters tall appeared hundreds of meters away from the Blood Ogre.
A few seconds later, countless Enraged Ghouls materialized in its surroundings and began to charge at the Blood Ogre like rabid dogs.
All of these Ghouls were Rank 5 Monsters and wouldn't pose much of a threat to the Blood Ogre.
However, since all of Lux's subordinates were boosted with multiple buffs that improved their Attack, Defense, and Health, they could all be considered Pseudo Deimos-Ranked Monsters.
This was also true for the Doom Knight Gangbangers, Nightstalkers, Lich Revenants, Jade Golems, Fortress Defenders, and Doomsday Gargoyles. All of them had powerful buffs boosting their attacks, making them truly formidable in large-scale battles.
But it didn't end there.
Since they were also boosted with Lux's Death God's Aura, as well as gaining the Divine Abyssal Touch, they were like a swarm of ants that could overpower even stronger opponents!
With one sweep of the Blood Ogre's clubs, countless Ghouls were turned to meat paste.
With another strike, countless Doom Knight Gangbangers shattered and died instantly.
Calamity-Ranked Monsters were no joke, and they could easily destroy entire cities when left unchecked.
Even so, with each Undead's destruction, another one would rise to take its place.
It was an endless cycle of killing and rebirth, which made Louis and the other Saints feel as if they had a chance of winning.
Unfortunately, they had greatly underestimated their opponents.
There were many Calamity-Ranked Monsters that roamed the lands of Agartha, but not all of them were imprisoned in the Inner Sanctum.
Lilian, who was a Calamity-Ranked Wicked Queen Slime, was one of these monsters. Although her fighting ability was quite high, it was nothing compared to the monsters that were deemed to be too powerful to be allowed to roam the land.
As if proving this point, the body of the Blood Ogre turned completely black. There was also a black substance that was swirling around its body like countless tentacles that were obliterating anything that came within a hundred meters of it.
Although Lux's Undead Legion was unending, none of them were able to get close enough to actually deal damage to the Blood Ogre, who had now turned into a Black Ogre with four arms.
Aside from the changes in its skin color, there was something else that changed in the monster. It had gained a third eye that was crimson in color.
This eye would glow from time to time, creating a barrier that prevented long ranged attacks from hitting its body.
Simply put, it was now like a walking fortress.
A fortress that could repel any kind of attacks that were aimed in its direction.
The Golden-Eyed Naga, had also stepped up its attack and let out an otherworldly screech. It then stabbed its razor-sharp claws into the palm of its left hand, drawing blood.
What it did next made the Exiles feel as if the hairs on the back of their necks stood on end.
The Golden-Eyed Naga sprayed its golden blood on the ground.
These droplets of blood transformed into dozens of Golden-Eyed Nagas, with each having the strength of a Dreadnaught-Ranked.
The Calamity-Ranked Monster, as well as its summons, all charged at the City of Exile with a deafening shriek.
Since all of them looked the same, the Saints were unable to pinpoint the Calamity-Ranked Monster because it had hidden its aura while mingling with its summons.
Because of this, it was nearly impossible to tell which of the Golden-Eyed Naga's was the original.
"Scatter!" King Louis shouted towards the people on the city wall.
That was the last thing he said before the dozens of Golden-Eyed Nagas, as well as the Black Ogre, unleashed hell upon the Defenders of the City of Exile.
