Chapter 435: 85th Floor, The Ashen Lady. Societ Gardenia (3)
“Necromancy, huh.”
Taesan hurled himself into the oncoming corpses, clenching his fists and slamming them forward as he took a step. A violent shockwave tore through the undead, scattering flesh and shattering the bones of skeletons in all directions.
BOOM!
Yet, the corpses kept coming. Among them, Taesan recognized some of the figures—monsters he had once defeated in the lower levels of the labyrinth.
Now, those same monsters moved under Societ’s control. Worse yet, they were far stronger than they had been before.
Societ’s power was clear: she reanimated the dead, wielding their bodies as tools against the living.
Taesan kicked out, obliterating dozens of charging beasts in a single blow. Without hesitation, he swung his arm, pulverizing more of the undead. His fingers came away slick with decayed flesh, but for every corpse he struck down, even more rose to take their place.
In mere moments, the chamber was teeming with the dead.
While fighting, Taesan spoke, his voice cutting through the chaos.
“How does it feel, knowing that someone you thought you understood was actually a complete stranger?”
[Shut up.]
The ghost’s reply was curt, though his earlier shock had largely dissipated.
