Death Guns In Another World

Chapter 1516 - 1356: Clash

Alex didnʼt explain too much as it would be too time-consuming to explain.

”From now onward, I will leave Madeline with full responsibility here. All you guys have to do is act following her commands. The enemies are the subordinates of the Necromancer. Cecilia, prepare for full spell suppression. Alice, the Abominations have a long attacking range. You and your squad must put up defenses in the quickest time possible!”

Alex extended his right arm and dazzling wings appeared on his back. On the other hand, Maggie also emanated a pure, white radiance. Then, the light rays coalesced on her back and formed a pair of tiny wings.

”Letʼs go! Maggie!”

Maggie is a Grandmaster battle healer just like Luna, Besides her small height around Gracierʼs height, it reminded Alex of his sister he dearly missed. It was why he had taken a liking to Maggie, he was his sister far away he missed and she was crazy for battle just like a certain Saintess, they looked alike.

Alex shook his head as flew through the air.

Suddenly, he heard Silveriaʼs voice.

〖Alex, have you never considered General Kade to be the head of the numbers under Bahamutʼs clone?〗

This question forced Alex to a momentary stop.

ʼʼ!?”

Maggie was confused but Alex was too busy to entertain her.

It was not like he hadnʼt considered this but just hoped it was not true because it would mean Bahamutʼs clone was the dark dragon ruling the Dali Kingdom, this would be tough.

ʼʼYes I have considered it but there is no confirmation. Well, weʼll see.ʼʼ Alex resumed flying.

Meanwhile,

”Grrrr—!”

The Gargoyles had arrived before the Fortress. They let out deep growls in their throats, exposed their sharp claws, and beat their wings fiercely. On the other hand, the Divine Unicorns lowered their heads, aimed their pointed horn forward like the knightsʼ pikes, and darted forward.

Bam!

Both sides clashed.

The Gargoyles were much harder to deal with than the Bone Griffins.

Even though the Divine Unicornsʼ horns had penetrated the Gargoylesʼ chests, the Gargoyles didnʼt crumble immediately like the Bone Griffins. On the contrary, it enraged them further and they snarled, stretched out their sharp claws, and slashed the Divine Unicornsʼ skulls. If the Divine Unicorns were Humans, perhaps their skulls would have turned into smashed watermelons.

But the Divine Unicorns didnʼt have it any better though. They winced to the powerful impact, but it was apparent that the Gargoyles wouldnʼt let them off this easily. As the backlash threw the Divine Unicorns to the side, the Gargoyles turned around abruptly and lashed their pitch-black, long tails at the Divine Unicorns.

Fragments splattered and the Divine Unicorns had no choice but to retreat instantly. However, the Gargoyles seized the opportunity to chase forward and deal the final blow.

A dazzling, meteor-like blade ray flashed.

At the same time, a Gargoyle pouncing on one of the Divine Unicorns was split in half from the middle. The magical energy supporting its movements scattered and in the blink of an eye, it returned to being a heavy boulder, descended from the sky, and smashed into the ground.

Alex kept his sword and drifted away like a spirit that dodged an oncoming attack.

An ice-cold glint flashed in his eyes. He sped forward with his two daggers and dragged two shimmering silver trails of lightning bolts across the night sky. The Gargoyles along the trails shuddered as though they were struck by an invisible force and blasted away instantly.

The Divine Unicorns swiftly stomped with their iron hooves and thrust their horns to shatter them into worthless stone fragments.

On the other side, Maggie was having a much more brutal battle.

”Heyaaaah!”

The little girl clenched her fists in a fighting stance while staring at a Gargoyle pouncing on her. At this moment, four to five consecutive rays appeared out of thin air and shrouded her entirely.

Then, she landed her punch heavily on the Gargoyleʼs rock-solid body, and in the blink of an eye, it shattered into powder, and the indescribable, immense impact spread, and rippled wildly across the sky. The dense air filled with the presence of Gargoyles was immediately blasted away into a space, where hundreds of Gargoyles were destroyed entirely by Maggie with nothing spared.

”Awesome!”

Maggie let loose of her clench and exclaimed in delight. Then, she flew straight into the black, dense mass of Gargoyles like a dazzling meteor. However, the Gargoyles didnʼt retreat. They didnʼt have such intentions either.

Dozens of Gargoyles darted toward Maggie from all directions and almost shrouded her tiny stature within. But everything was completely reversed at the next moment.

”Get lost, scums!”

She punctured one of the Gargoyles with her tiny right fist. She raised her arm with a proud grin and tossed it toward the other Gargoyles, where they crashed into a complete mess. Then… there was no more ʼthenʼ.

Ssss—!

A Gargoyle emerged behind Maggie and struck out its black, sharp claw at her — But sparks splashed instantly as a transparent barrier negated its attack. Before it could respond to the situation, the light wings behind her transformed and extended like vines that whipped across the sky. Not only was the ambushing Gargoyle struck, but even the other Gargoyles around it were shattered completely.

”Hmph! Trash!”

Maggie turned around, curled her lips in disdain, and raised her tiny fists. Her wings unfolded and beat to bring her to the area most concentrated with the Gargoyles.

”Oh my goodness…”

The soldiers stared blankly into the night sky from the city walls. In an instant, they thought that they were present in a legendary battle that had unfolded in their wildest dreams. The Divine Unicorns soared in the sky and fought a violent battle with the pitch-black, distasteful Gargoyles. On the other hand, the constantly flickering blade rays and holy radiance got their blood racing.

None of them had expected to witness such a fantasy-like scene.

But now… They had become one of them and were about to battle the terrifying creatures like legendary heroes! Many of them were fired up. They fixed their eyes on the sky and cursed themselves for not having a pair of wings behind them like Alex and Maggie and flying into the air and facing the creatures. How glorious would that be?!

”Everyone. Get ready. Enemies have entered our attacking range—!”

Randallʼs yells dragged the soldiers back from their fantasy. They pulled themselves up and gazed at the Undead Army. The Abominations were approaching them step by step.

Cecilia extended her right hand with a stern expression. The scarlet flames on her palm throbbed constantly while Alice crossed her hands and chanted under her breath.

In an instant, the soldiers sensed an unprecedented calmness even though a hot-blooded desire for a fierce battle had erupted in their bodies. They felt as though their skin had been completely frozen by the whizzing, cold winds. However, that wasnʼt due to fear. Instead, it was because of excitement and thrill. The soldiers raised their bows and aimed at the enemies in the distance.

Their eyes were no longer glinting with fear or uncertainty.

”Release your arrows!”

Randall ordered.

A string of blazes and explosions erupted, which devoured the Undead Army. Lars let out a grim laugh as he squinted at the army ahead. Behind him stood 10 Necromancers clad in black robes. They had formed a perfect circle with their positions. They held white bone staff and quietly waited for their orders. Lars was ready.

It could be seen that Rairhanʼs report wasnʼt exaggerating at all. Lars couldnʼt help but exclaim in awe when he witnessed this massive, majestic Fortress, where even his Bone City wasnʼt as beautiful or flourishing. In an instant, he had come up with intentions of snatching this place into his own.

If he could receive such a castle and guard this strategic location and major road, it was imaginable how powerful he could become.

Lars stepped toward the middle of the circle formed by the Necromancers in large strides. Even though Rairhan was foolish, he did suffer a defeat for reasonable reasons. Lars had checked the nearby terrain and it was undeniably unsuitable for the Death Knights. But it was entirely different for Necromancers. Even though he wasnʼt aware that what Rairhan said was true, he wouldnʼt belittle the enemies.

He had a strategy ready.

”Letʼs begin.”

Lars lifted his head and gazed at the Fortress. Then, he extended his hands, and the white bone staff in his hand hovered slowly in midair. He lowered his head and chanted a curse softly. The 10 Necromancers followed his lead and chanted in harmony.

The darkness turned deeper.

Another string of explosions flashed.

Meanwhile, on Alexʼs side, Cecilia puckered her brows at the Abominations who were still braving forward even after they were blasted with heavy damage. They were truly hard to deal with just as Alex had mentioned. Since the battle commenced, the soldiers had fired two waves of arrows.

Although the explosions had slowed the Abominations down, they didnʼt seem to have intentions of stopping. Their tall, obese bodies were full of pitch-black large holes with forest-green blood gushing out. The night breeze swept the putrid stench along and polluted the air.

Trouble is coming. She could feel it, they have to prepare.
