BXBX NOVEL Chapter 424 - The Sheer Numbers
BOOM!!
BOOM!!
BANG!!
Hundreds of giant magic cannons spread across the 10 kilometers wide area shot and pulverized thousands of incoming waves of monsters spread across hundreds of meters with each hit.
The torn guts, mangled and burning flesh and the stream of blood filled the battlefield as both sides were engaged in a battle to protect their lives and the normal citizens living across the whole 500 kilometers of the populated area.
After the recent events of the legendary monster attack on the Kaldris region and Kahn\'s moving speech… their enthusiasm had reached a peak and due to Kahn\'s promise as the Sovereign to establish a system that would take care of the families in case they fell in the line of duty, the soldiers fought fearlessly.
Thousands of flying ships dropped mana bombs, artillery attacks and the long-range fighters such as archers, summoners and mages boarded on them dropped an enormous volley of arrows, mage spells and summoned constructs made of mana from the flying ships.
However, due to the massive number of a few hundred thousand flying monsters blocking them from venturing inside, the air force could not go past the battlefield and make a decisive move either.
And being the veteran warrior himself, Commander Chetak had ordered the military to hold the front until more reinforcements arrived.
Because if the line of defense broke, the consequences would be immeasurable. In a way, he ended up helping Omega and Jugram who too wanted to keep the military busy on this end until their fellow general took care of the main perpetrator.
Unbeknownst to the riled-up military forces of the Berawaa region, there was a different phenomenon inside the inner regions of the dense forest where stood the legendary rank monster who was telepathically controlling millions of these monsters as if they were actually an extension of its body.
BOOM!!
A loud sonic boom suddenly resounded in the 3 kilometers area from behind this 100 meters tall legendary creature and it finally noticed the intruder who had been watching it while being undetected for minutes.
A completely black aura spread across like a dense fog and a massive black pillar of darkness elemental energy suddenly erupted from the source.
The ground trembled, trees shook violently as an insurmountable pressure soon froze all living creatures in the 3 kilometer vicinity.
The legendary rank creatures were by no means just some high leveled monsters, rather the absolute overlords that you couldn\'t kill even with an army of millions. Even their aura alone was more than enough to kill thousands if used at full extent.
Unlike some normal novel or manga, the playing field for the legendary rank monsters in Vantrea was already on a godly scale. Whether it was their size or the damage they could do with their skills was simply incomprehensible for someone from the earth.
Ceril, who had finally revealed his deathly aura and challenged the legendary rank monster that was literally rooted on the spot, for a one-on-one battle.
The next moment however, he started chanting a spell and under the eyes of the millions of monsters spread in the nearby 10 kilometers… 10 enormous red colored magic formations, each one of which was a kilometer in width spread from the center and stopped only after covering the ten kilometer radius from the location of the source aka Ceril.
"Let\'s see who\'s better at handling more numbers." spoke Ceril with a smirk.
"Arise… Army of the Dead!" he exclaimed.
Crack!!
Crackle!!
Shatter!!
Loud noises of shattering and cracking ground filled the surroundings as the entire one kilometer perimeter under the red magic formations, which was Ceril\'s signature skill, cracked wide open.
Clang!
Thud!
Jitter!
Thump!
Bang!
Dozens of different noises filled the dense treelines as from the now 1 kilometer circumference pit of hollow ground, rose thousands of undeads varying from species, sizes and different fighting professions.
A similar scene occurred on the 9 other sites under those archaic red formations that summoned thousands of skeletal undead soldiers and monsters alike.
Thousands of these creatures were even 10 meters in size and there were many with specific gear and armors such as tanks, swordsmen, berserkers, assassins and archers.
Behind them, stood battalions of dark hooded mages and summoners as support.
This Army of the Dead was not just boney human skeletons but actually a well-equipped army of soldiers with full battle formations based on their skills and abilities.
And just in 1 minute, more than a million of these soldiers comprised of various creatures that were the amalgamation of a number of species experimented and created by the Dark Summoner general during his 4 months of study session came into site.
Wraahhh!!
Grrrrrrr…
ROAR!!
Thud! Thud!
And as Ceril\'s army approached towards the enemy side, the number of undeads that kept coming out of the deep crevices and Hollow grounds also rose with every passing second.
At this moment, the faceless and mouthless legendary rank wood elemental creature turned its whole body towards Ceril and made a gesture through its gigantic hands.
And soon, thousands of tree sentinels that were 10 to 20 meters in height and were guarding the close proximity of this legendary rank monster suddenly started charging towards the new enemy side that suddenly appeared out of nowhere.
"Hahaha!!
Let\'s see if you\'re even an opponent worth using my full abilities on." spoke Ceril with a smile and the next moment…
Clang!
Bash!.
Both sides started colliding against each other as the massive monsters amongst their ranks charged from the front of their respective offensive formations.
And in a matter of minutes, a big battlefield consisting of millions of creatures came to be.
Trees and ground shattered as they came in between these mindless monsters clashed against each other.
"These petty ones shan\'t do. Let me bring my Six Swords." said Ceril and the next second…
Six 50 meters tall gigantic creatures, each as big as a colossal titan whose bodies were made from the bones of thousands of undeads appeared on different ends.
Although their appearance was many times bigger than the previous encounter where Ceril turned them into his puppets.. Their aura, that was comparable to a semi-saint itself sent shivers in the approaching monster army.
At this moment… Ceril had summoned the…
Six Heads of Hydra!
