Chapter 685 - 686 – Taking On the Lich Lord’s Tomb – Part 13.
The endless army of undeads was finally showing the sighs of depletion.
Once all the undeads will be eliminated, Purple Hyena will win the war no matter what.
…
But obviously, it isn't that simple.
Even though the undeads are running out, the invaders really didn't have an easy time.
These so called "remains" of the tomb's undeads weren't just some random trash monsters.
They were the highest difficulty monsters, which were also mixed up with large number of elite monsters as well as boss monsters.
To make matters worse, the entire Purple Hyena guild was already exhausted from having to fight countless waves monsters.
True, ClownFrog could replace lost monsters with new ones… But even he had a limit and so did his monsters.
The players of the Purple Hyena guild were also not doing so hot either, as they already used up most of their skills, utlimates as well as consumables.
"Shit! Hey! Can't you heal me?!" – shouted Cave as he was getting surrounded by the undead elves.
"GIVE ME A MINUTE! I DON'T HAVE FUCKING MP!" – shouted Apple Juice as he tried to take out a potion from his inventory.
"!"
"BEHIND YOU!" – shouted Cave as undead elven knight enchanted by the corrupted spirit was right behind priest.
"!?"
The priest tried quickly backing away in fear, but right as the blade of the elven knight was about to reach him, a giant snake tail struck the undead and sent the creature flying.
"Holy shit! Thanks Shri!" – said Apple Juice as Shri in her chimera form approached the priest, alongside her beast who immediately started supporting Rampage team, helping out against the undeads that were starting to overwhelm the players.
"No problem." – said Shri as she started looking around, noticing the destruction around her.
"…Didn't ClownFrog gave you new monsters?"
"Yea… About that…." – said Apple Juice.
"They came…. But all of our previous monsters were…. Vaporized by a nuke laser?"
"…"
"Oh… Shit." – said Shri as she stared at the Tomb's watcher who was currently fighting Rampage.
"COMMON YOU BIG FUCKER! HIT ME! FUCKING HIT ME!" – shouted the heavily armored vampire as the giant bone creature fist came down, clashing against the vampire shield, before moments later an eruption of blood suddenly swallowed the giant's fist.
[Blood Paladin] skill.
[Punishment By Blood]
"IDIOT!" – shouted Rampage before unleashing another one of the [Blood Paladin] skills, [Blood Crave], stabbing the giant with her lance and unleashing a concentrated beam of blood that knocked away the giant's fist.
"…"
"Oh common." – but unfortunately for her, wound was nowhere near making the giant lose its hand or even stopping it from attacking the giant again.
"…"
(Damn. I got hit by that attack before when I had a little duel with Rampage and I know this thing stinks.) – thought alarmed Shri.
(But that bastard easily tanked ultimate attack like it was nothing?!)
(He already looks like it is at the brink of destruction, so why the hell ultimate is doing jack shit to it?!)
(No fucking wonder ClownFrog fought him for over half an hour!)
"…"
(Honestly, I want to help out Rampage…. But I guess it will be impossible.) – thought Shri as she observed her monsters struggling against the undeads.
(I've already used up shit tons of my own skills to try and keep these bastards alive, but they are starting to die one by one.)
"…"
*Sigh*
"Fuck it." – said Shri.
(I guess I will have to every single ultimate that I have left.)
<<The chaotic war continued…. And pretty much, the chaos grew.>>
<<Honestly…. This battle had already lasted for more than an hour…. And things are
<<Even though the number of monsters started visible decreasing, the pure amount of elite and boss monsters was making…. No. They were making things far worse for the already heavily exhausted Purple Hyena.>>
<<Not only that, but the hostile players haven't given up either, since now they thought they had a "chance", since two of three monsters left them alone.>>
<<And the watcher was once again on the move.>>
<<Rampage can hold off the creature somewhat on her own, thanks to her defense and self-healing abilities…. But she does not have nowhere near enough fire power to stop the watcher's movements.>>
<<And after some time, the 1 hour and 30-minute park passes.>>
<<At first, the players that were trying to oppose the Purple Hyena were almost wiped out, with only very few elite players being left…. But even so, the Purple Hyena wasn't doing so good.>>
<<With the elite and boss monster pushing forward, I had no choice but to retreat.>>
<<Why when I'm the strongest?>>
<<Oh, nothing really much.>>
<<It is just the FUCKING fact that these dungeon monsters are fucking eating alive my monsters!>>
<<And that was happening in all fucking directions!>>
<<Simple put, I have to back away from the frontliners and keep summoning new undeads as well as all sort of other summons I can bring out without care.>>
<<However, spawning army of monsters nonstop is extremely draining for me! I've been chugging down potions left and right.>>
<<I've thought it would be some sort of last push before we finally annihilate the fuckers, but there are just straight up way too many elites.>>
<<So pretty much, I'm just "stuck" being a spawner for my monsters.>>
<<But obviously my lack of presence in the frontlines made…. Well, our players got fucked.>>
<<And at the mark 1 hour 45 minutes…. We had our first player losses.>>
<<Cup and Rex, a female dragonewt summoner and male draconic orc warrior player ended up dying.>>
<<….Fuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuccccccccccccccccccckkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkk.>>
<<What happened next was pretty much obvious.>>
<<One of our lines of defense started taking heavy hits left and right.>>
<<Obviously I've tried sending more monsters in that direction… But that obviously weakened other lines of the defense.>>
<<At the rate things are going we are->>
"I'm here!" – shouted Blueberry.
"…"
"What?!" – said surprised ClownFrog.
"I've killed them all! The players! I've also bombed up the area and put some extra traps around the entrance! It should alarm us if we encounter any new bastards!" – said Blueberry as she was catching her breath and opening her inventory, taking out a huge amount of potions.
"…"
"You really…. Okay…." – said ClownFrog as he was drinking a potion, while starting to somewhat understand the current situation.
"Sorry…. But I can't really give you orders."
"I'm way too busy commanding my monsters…. So, yea…. Just go wild."
"….Okay." – said Blueberry after finishing drinking her potions, before then quickly activating her jet boosters and flying away.
"…."
(Huh…. I've thought….I've thought getting rid of those players would... No. They were already heavily exhausted as well from having to not only deal with us, but also few other players beforehand.) – thought Shri.
"…"
"?"
"WAIT A BLOODY MOMENT!" – shouted ClownFrog as he realized something.
(LONG! WHERE IS THAT BASTARD!?)
(HE DIDN'T DIED! AND THERE SHOULD BE OTHER BASTARDS WORKING FOR ALAMIN SLASH DRAGON KING!)
(But we never freaking saw him!)
(Teleportation?! Did they…. NO! There is no way they could had teleported past these undeads!)
(Even if they had extremely long range, there is no way they would go straight from one end to another without setting up points!)
(Something isn't right!) – thought ClownFrog as he looked towards exit.
"HEY BOSS! WE NEED FUCKING MORE ELEMENTALS HERE!" – shouted Hera via telepathy, alarming ClownFrog.
"Coming!" – said ClownFrog as he summoned new group of elementals, before then taking out another potion from his inventory.
(No wait. Think about it.) – thought alarmed ClownFrog.
(If he had waited…. No! He would have appeared by now and fought Blueberry!)
(And if Alamin's allies would…. No! It ain't making sense either!)
(Where are they?!)
(Cameras?! But we checked the whole thing before we started the war!)
(Just what the hell is going on?!)
<<There was nothing.>>
<<All the players that were in the dungeon besides us were exterminated and Blueberry added a layer of traps around the entrance in case of somebody even trying to enter this place.>>
<<….Oh…. Wait, we should had added those traps before…. Wow, why the hell none of us thought about this!?>>
<<Anyway, this is abnormal.>>
<<That dragon king was desperate to reveal their position. Revealing that they are DRAGON KING.>>
<<And yet, nothing?>>
<<….Or maybe…. Or maybe they can't?>>
<<Maybe there is limit of what they can do? Honestly, they already did acted extremely boldly by straight up ATTACKING US OPENLY!>>
<<Still, the drama should be somewhat hidden, since it only just had happened… Unless there is something else going behind the scenes? Maybe the dragon king that wants to be allies with us caught the aggressive dragon king in act?>>
<<Either way…. Things started looking better for us?>>
<<True, I was still bound as 'monster spawner'.>>
<<But thanks to now no longer having to worry about hostile players, we had less problems going on.>>
<<And not only that, Blueberry was able to re-join the frontliners.>>
<<And from the get go, things ended up looking much better.>>
<<With her around, helping out dealing with bosses, the weaker players and monsters could focus on dealing with the enemy weaker foes, balancing things out.>>
<<Not only that, but the enemies numbers have are finally showing a proper sights of depletion!>>
<<We are finally seeing a chance after this non fighting!>>
<<We can win this!>>
