Chapter 177: Undeath Army Against Goblin Army
-----
Frank rushed through the corridors with his party and the Storm Chasers, the enormous army of the dead marching behind them, led by Nezhit and Zero, alongside Ruby and Zhulong flying at each side of the army, monitoring everything around.
"We are getting closer, brace yourselves, and begin conjuring spells!" said Frank, as Grandwing and the rest of the Storm Chasers nodded, beginning to gather mana around themselves and resisting several incantations, covering their weapons with magic, and charging powerful attacks!
His party did not particularly need to conjure magic through chanting, but if they did, the power of the spells was increased, so they began to do so as well, charging large spells!
"I can see them!" said Frank, as enormous quantities of purple flames emerged all over his body, his eyes flashing with crimson light!
Suddenly, from within the darkness, a monstrous army of hundreds of Goblins emerged, green-skinned humanoid monsters, with long and sharp noses and ears, bald heads, and long fangs.
Wearing full sets of metallic armor instead of just leather armor, Frank felt like this army had been \'upgraded\' by the Goblin King!
And through the vast army, he saw them, the small Goblin wearing black clothes and decorations made off human skulls, sitting atop a ten-meter-tall Goblin, the Goblin King, and the Goblin Champion!
"So you\'ve finally shown up…" said Frank, immediately sensing the strong power within these two individuals…
"They\'re… near Rank 3 already…" he said, surprising the rest of the party.
"Can we… defeat them?" asked Grandwing.
"I will pave the way with my army, assist me as much as you can!" said Frank, using Death Command and Death Coordination into his entire army, as Nezhit and Zero raised their weapons, the rest of the Goblin Zombies raised their weapons, fists, and staves!
The combination of hundreds of roars from the Undead clashed against those of enemy army Goblins, which made the scene even louder as everything was going on within a closed dungeon, even if its space was incredibly large to harbor such a ridiculous amount of monsters.
"Grr… Kill… I will kill and eat his Mana Core!" said the Goblin King, raising his staff as his army roared loudly, rushing towards Frank and his army!
CLASH!
The loud crash of both armies impacting each other resonated even loudly, as Goblins and Goblin Zombies began to slash, stab, smash, bite, and destroy each other in the most monstrous and bloody war that those present had ever seen!
The Living Goblins seemed to be in the advantage at first, but then Grandwing and the Storm Chasers entered the battle, blasting away whole battalions with their wide-range spells, unleashing slicing emerald winds, freezing icy storms, shadow bullets, and more.
Entire battalions were sliced into pieces, frozen and blow apart, and punctured by countless spears made of shadows!
Boom! Boom! Boom! Boom!
Goblin\'s dismembered pieces flew over the air, falling into a complete bloodbath, the Goblin army saw such destruction unfold and they began to falter, stepping back!
Nezhit and Zero used this opportunity, commanding their army together and digging through the ranks of the enemy army, slicing heads off by the dozens, as the Zombies behind them followed their commands, using their undying brutish force, weapons, and even heads to kill as many enemies as they could!
Goblin Zombie Mages specifically modified to be able to conjure greater magic, possessing several heads and Mana Cores put inside of their chests conjured gigantic magic circles, unleashing thunderstorms and meteor showers over their enemies, the living goblins!
The Goblin King glanced at the battlefield with scorn, something wrong was going on!
These enemies, the Undead, were way stronger than in the previous fight, the leading human that made them into Undead had someone found a way to strengthen moving corpses such as them, who were supposed to not even carry the same level of strength as before being dead!
However, somehow, they were showing to be even greater and stronger!
"My army is vastly superior! King\'s Command!" roared the Goblin King, using one of his special Abilities unlocked after becoming a Goblin King, King\'s Command!
Aside from Magic, within Terra, there were also Abilities not completely related with a magic attribute or the Mana Core of the wielder, such Abilities were often very rare, but it was said that those Magus that forged their Mana Cores into higher Ranks might be able to awaken some.
However, the common folk could not even dream to have something like that, but Monsters were different.
Unlike normal people, monsters usually possessed natural Abilities, such as better speed, superhuman strength from birth, powerful razor-sharp teeth, breathing fire, and more.
Amongst the many types of monsters that existed in this world, the King-Class Monsters were the most unique!
King-Class Monsters held the power to control their kin to their heart\'s content, and amidst such Abilities, King\'s Command was included!
This power gave any King-Class Monster the power to enhance the strength of their kin by giving them a command they could not deny!
And the command that the King was giving to his subjects was simple...
"KILL THEM ALL!"
Grandwing and his party felt exhausted after using their mana, as the Goblins suddenly received the enhancement of the Goblin King Ability!
Their eyes flashed with eerie crimson light, and their muscles began to bulge, even the smallest of Goblins unleashed a powerful Aura!
"GRYAHAHAHA!"
The Goblins turned berserk, rushing towards the Undead Goblins, and massacring them, although the strongest and biggest ones manage dot resist and retaliate, more and more began to be demolished!
However, Frank smiled!
"As long as I am standing, my army will never fall!" roared Frank, raising his claws to the air and unleashing a storm of purgatory flames over a group of enemy goblins, burning them into a crisp and then converting them into Undead, even if they were burned!
He began to do the same with all the fallen Goblins, even those former Undead who got their bodies blasted into pieces, he simply made them reattach themselves and go back to fight!
Grandwing and his party used this opportunity of chaos and commotion to fly back to Frank, as Frank\'s party was now entering battle alongside his army of the dead led by Nezhit and Zero, Ruby and Zhulong also emerged from their sides, unleashing fire, and thunder!
"Now!" roared Gwendolyn, as she, Annabelle, Vheslia, Cathyl, Asterion, Hilvera, Kamei, Ruby, and Zhulong rushed towards the frontlines, unleashing all of their long-ranged attacks!
Gwendolyn generated enormous tornadoes of flames, which took dozens of Goblins, burning them and slicing them into pieces!
Annabelle used her Blazing Whip to unleash Whip Techniques with it, combining her magic with such technique skill, unleashing devastating long-ranged attacks, entangling the goblins with burning flames, and smashing them against each other!
Vheslia unleashed her Mana Aura of Darkness and Shadows, shaping them as countless tentacles and swiping them around, smashing the Goblins in the dozens, while also flooding the battlefield with poison through her Poison Synthesis Skill which she combined with her magic to generate wide-range poisonous attacks!
Cathyl enhanced her entire body with enhancement skills and spells such as Body Aura, Bronze Skin, and more, and rushed into the battlefield, showcasing her superhuman strength inherited from her Minotaur race, her axe unleashed strong Axe Techniques, combined with her Gust Skill and her Wind Attribute Magic, her slashing attacks made the floor tremble, sending flying even the tallest of Goblin Warriors!
Asterion followed his mother\'s techniques, unleashing similar and powerful axe attacks, each swing of his weapon generating storms of slicing winds, breaking apart the formations of the Goblins within seconds!
Hilvera used her wind attribute magic and gust skills in combination with her knife technique, firing them through the battlefield like bullets, penetrating the heads of any goblin or covering them in slashing attacks, her agility was almost not akin to a Minotaur, and more to a nimble race of beast-kin such as cat-kin.
Kamei generated Holy Light Barriers around, while using her Heavenly Commandment Skills to enhance her allies regeneration and gained EXP. By using her Miracle Magic, she kept everyone healthy as much as she could, and used her Holy Light Magic to generate barriers and powerful Holy Light Rays, blinding and burning any Goblin that reached her side!
However, all of them were tightly stuck together, to not let any of them fight alone.
Grandwing and the rest of the Storm Chasers regenerated their Mana after Frank assisted them, while Frank was continuously raising more Undead by using his Shadow Clone!
And then, he noticed that the Goblin King roared in anger, as a larger battalion of Goblins made their way to the frontlines, alongside the Goblin Mages in the back conjuring powerful wide-range attacks one by one!
BOOM! BOOM! BOOM!
Blazing rocks fell from the large magic circles atop the air, burning and obliterating Frank\'s army, leaving deep wounds within its numbers!
The Goblin King smiled, as it saw Frank\'s army slowly diminish!
"Gyahahaha! You lack more numbers, foolish human!" it laughed. However, Frank kept calm as he raised his claws.
"Rise," he said, infusing more and more mana into the burnt corpses, grabbing the souls and forcefully inserting them into the fallen and burnt flesh, fusing it together into large and grotesque masses of flesh!
"W-What…? Tch! No matter, most of them move too slowly! And the rest was turned into ashes, you cannot even turn ashes into undead anymore, can\'t you?!" laughed the Goblin King, surprised over Frank\'s ridiculous power but then realizing that he was still winning with numbers!
Although Frank tried his best to bring them back, even with these masses of several body parts merged together, these undead were not as many, as most of his zombies were simply turned into ashes!
So Frank simply came with another solution to compensate for the lack of forces against the Goblin King\'s Army!
"Inventory!" he said, opening his inventory as thousands of items began to fall from them!
Just what… was Frank going to do now?
