Child of Destiny

Chapter 1004: The Final Stretch (Part 2)

...

As Shin and the others were heading in their direction, the ground suddenly trembled intensely, making them halt their steps and adjust their footing so that they would not stumble.

Not long after, the ground a few distances away from them suddenly humped up, carrying frozen houses alongside it. And quickly after that, the ground burst out followed by an appearance of a huge creature.

It was a massive dragon with snow-white scales, standing tens of meters from the ground and having a pair of wings that extended with a fifty-meter span. Its body was releasing a cold fog, signifying the low temperature that it had.

Arthur could not contain his excitement when he saw the white dragon and could not wait to get near it. On the other hand, the rest of the group were currently wearing a solemn looks on their faces as they could feel the powerful pressure coming from the dragon despite them standing hundreds of meters away from it.

Roar!

The white dragon pointed its mouth toward the sky before releasing a deafening roar that shook the entire city.

A moment later, it lowered its head and directed its gaze at the group, sending a shiver down their spines.

The group was rooted in their place when they saw the white dragon staring at them. Then they saw a silhouette of a person standing on top of the head of the dragon, making the expression on their faces even darker.

As they saw him, Immortal was naturally also able to notice them. He looked at them with a haughty expression on his face as if he already conquered the world.

He was standing quite imposingly on the head of the white dragon holding his bone scepter as his ashen black robe was fluttering alongside the wind.

Not waiting for them to do anything, Immortal slightly tapped the bottom of his bone scepter on the head of the dragon, ordering it to charge at Shin and the others.

At the same time, he waved his scepter in the air and summoned his Undying Army. Unlike before, he was not planning to hold back this time. Different kinds of undead monsters crawled out from the ground, building up rows upon rows of skeleton monsters.

The size of this undead army was much larger compared to when faced Chaotic Luck earlier.

Immortal didnʼt just stop in there as he raised the bone scepter in the air. A dark light was released at the huge skeleton hand on the head of the scepter as he chanted out a series of incomprehensible incantations.

He was using one of the blessings of the secondary combat class that he just got earlier, the ʼEmissary of the Underworldʼ. And with this series of buffs, his army of undead immediately gained a powerful strength comparable to chieftain-rank monsters with some of them even rivaling lord-rank monsters.

With such a powerful army, Immortal was definitely a force to reckon with.

…

Meanwhile, the group quickly assumed a battle position, getting ready to fight.

Shin stood at the front of the group as he gave a series of orders. ”Chaotic Luck, summon your legion now! Owen, S.Tigris, and Seven hold the front! We are engaging with it head-on! Alucard and Ara, we are leaving the protection of the back to you.”

”Brother Faker, go look for the Shadow Queen. We canʼt afford to let someone like that snipe our backline from the distance.”

”Black Hand, I am entrusting you to lead the others in battle. And please guide Chaotic Luck on how to move his army of Solaris Undead if necessary.”

”Brother Lawless, Simba, and Zero, you guys come with me. We are going to kill as many undead monsters as we can.”

He then paused for a moment as the turned to Arthur before saying. ”I will be leaving that overgrown lizard to you. You already know what to do.”

Hearing that, Arthur gave Shin a confident smile before replying. ”Donʼt worry, Iʼve been waiting for this for ages!”

After that, he summoned his golden dragon before riding on its back. He urged it to fly in the sky and head to the white dragon charging at them. He now had the chance to showcase the new secondary combat class that he had just gotten, the ʼDragon Cavalierʼ.

Compared to the massive size of the white dragon ahead of them, the golden dragon pet that Arthur was riding looked like a dwarf. But despite that being the case, it fearlessly flew straight into it, ignoring the huge difference in size.

At the same time, the others also sprung into action as soon as Shin gave out his commands. They knew that their quest was already reaching its end, so they would not be holding back this time.

Faker suddenly disappeared in stealth before heading in a certain direction. From the looked of it, he seemed to have an idea of where Rust was currently hiding.

Shin, alongside the other three gods within their team, quickly charged ahead and headed to the huge army of undead monsters heading their way. They instantly entered the state of Reality Manifestation, not planning to hold back in the slightest.

On the other hand, the rest of the group quickly gets in formation, getting ready for the battle. Cloe and Black Hand even cast a series of buffs to everyone before Shin and the others could set out, enhancing the overall power of the entire team.

At the same time, Chaotic Luck quickly responded to Shinʼs command, calling out his Legion of Chaotic Sun by summoning a Solaris Soldier one after another. And when he reached the limit of the number of summonses that he could control, an entire army of skeleton soldiers covered with burning armor appeared around the group.

Their number was significantly lower than the opposing army and their quality was also noticeably worse because Immortal enhanced the strength of his Undying Army with the help of his secondary combat class.

But despite that being the case, Chaotic Luck was confident that they would not lose. After all, he had reliable teammates on his side and most of them had resounding names within the virtual world.

…

Shin was the first one to arrive at the ranks of the opposing side as he sprinted forward, turning himself into a streak of light that flashed through the middle of the undead army.

He unsheathed his sword during the process, cutting through everything standing in his path.

Shing!

Swoosh!

The skeleton undead standing on the path that he went through started falling one after another as all of them were cut in halves by his sword. They also could not retouch themselves as the holy flames of the Power of the Brilliant Sun purified them.

After that, Shin quickly sheathed the [Yamato] before switching it with the [Dusk and Dawn Blades]. He also employed his signature energy technique, the ʼEclipse Wieldingʼ, for his ʼYin-Yang Swordsmanshipʼ.

He then quickly swung his sabers, cutting down all of the skeleton soldiers that were pouncing at him from every direction.

In the meantime, on the other side of the battlefield, Lawless and Simba were currently slaughtering every undead monster in front of them. It didnʼt matter if those monsters were currently empowered by Immortalʼs blessings, in front of these two, all of them were just a bunch of cannon fodders.

With their current state, these two berserkers were like a pair of unstoppable beasts left loose on the battlefield.

Not far from them was Zero seemed to be the personification of a natural disaster, a storm in particular. He was cutting undead monsters one after another as if they were nothing.

All of the undead monsters that he came across were shredded into pieces by the gust of wind produced by each of his swings. He was currently using his own energy manipulation skill, the ʼDivine Windʼ, to employ his swordsmanship inside the game.

In front of these four ʼmonstersʼ on the battlefield, the number of the Undying Army should have decreased significantly. But for some unknown reason, the size of the undead army seemed to have not decreased at all. It looked like they had an inexhaustible number.

Immortal watched the battle from the head of the white dragon with an amused look on his face, seemingly satisfied with the current scene.

But he didnʼt let his guard down since he knew how troublesome was it to deal with such a group of moments. Fighting just one of them was already difficult, much less facing them as a group.

Having that in mind, Immortal did not dare to hold back and started calling out his most powerful undead that he could currently summon.

After a series of incantations, a huge shadow gate suddenly appeared behind him followed by his unique undead monsters coming out from it.

The Lich King, the Skeleton King, the True Ghoul, the Shadow Paladin, the Death Knight, the Undead Knight, and the newly acquired Doom Knight – all of these powerful undeads were summoned.

Immortal only had a limited number of resources right now, so he could not summon the others. Moreover, the three transcendent undead monsters from his arsenal needed certain conditions before he could summon them, so he was unable to call them out.

Aside from that, the reason why he only summoned 7 of them, he only had that number of Abomination Elemental Spirits currently.

With a wave of his hand, Immortal let his Abomination Elemental Spirits possess his unique undead monsters.

With it, the overall powers of his unique undead monsters increased significantly. Even their innate abilities were enhanced to a much higher height than before.

They didnʼt need any command from Immortal as they already knew what they needed to do. They bowed their heads to him before jumping down from the head of the white dragon and joining the ongoing battle below.

At this point in time, they were going to let loose on the battlefield.

At the same time, Immortal also saw the golden streak of light heading in his direction. He squinted his eyes and saw Arthur riding his golden dragon and flying straight to him.

”Heh! You are coming straight to your death, Siegfried!” sneered Immortal as he watched Arthur.
