Bayou size struck once more at the fractured section of Miles silver sword.
And in an instant, Yang arrived beside Bayou, launching a simultaneous attack with his blood red long sword.
The black flames and the blood simultaneously corroded Miles Silver Sword.
While Yuyang<unk>s blood was rapidly depleted by the Silverblade amidst the sea of fire, the howling winds intensified the onslaught.
With each gust of wind carrying flames in its wake.
Chapter 138.
Let us settle the appearance.
Fee the crack and the silver sword widened.
And Miles noticed it at a glance.
If it continued, his weapon would be destroyed.
He delivered a swift kick towards Bayou, who manifested a dark barrier to deflect Miles attack, maintaining their stalemate.
Realizing that his assault was feudal, Miles released his grip on the sword hilt, wielding it with one hand as he concentrated gravity into his fist and struck Elang, forcing him back.
The power of the domain surged, repelling the attack from Lyn Jun and Shir Yao.
No longer dispersing his strength to contend with other lords, Miles instantly pushed Bayou back.
Following this, he unleashed a gravity cannon.
But Bayou teleported away, retreating to a distance.
From afar, Lia observed the battle and saw Bayou approach, directly intervening between him and Lu Yao, shifting the dynamics slightly in their favor.
Suddenly, Lia felt a rush of air above him.
Instinctively, he looked up and witnessed the most astonishing sight since arriving in the magical realm.
A vast swarm of undead emerged from the snowy mountains, descending towards the battlefield in a dense cloud, akin to a locust invasion.
It was her army.
Leading the charge was a colossal bone dragon, the very one that had battled against him and his companions before, followed closely by several smaller bone dragons and wraith dragons.
Behind them trailed gargoyless and destroyers along with incorporeal specters.
The sheer number was overwhelming.
Thousands upon thousands.
How could this be possible? Lia was left dumbfounded, unaware that this was merely 40 of Bayou's undead forces, most of which were ground troops.
The number of her soldiers surpassed the combined total of the six lords present.
The combatants were equally stunned, their gazes drawn to the direction of the snowy peaks as the legion of undead approached, evoking immense shock among them.
Though the count was around 10,000, they were not human.
Apart from the specters, which were similar in size to humans, the gargoyless and destroyers towered at 3 m tall.
The bone dragons were even more formidable.
Colossal beings spanning several meters in length, projecting an oppressive aura far exceeding that of a thousand human soldiers.
Miles expression darkened.
The undead were the most challenging units to vanquish, as they lacked any means of soul-based attacks.
Not only were Lin Jan and Shir Yao astonished, but even Yang and Lia, who had previously encountered Bayou, were bewildered, unable to fathom that another lord could command such terrifying forces.
Soon, the undead joined the fry, fully leveraging their aerial advantage.
While one might argue that the power of cavalry charges was significant, the force of gargoyles descending from the sky was even more fearsome.
Relying solely on their momentum and their durable bodies, gargoyless could effortlessly tear apart cavalry, delivering fatal blows.
Composed of a blend of stone and metal, a gargoyle falling from height could indeed crush a life.
The flames of the bone dragons and the breaths of the wraith dragons engulfed and annihilated the battlefield.
While the spectre soul attacks invisibly reaped the lives of the cavalry as Arthur, the bone dragon king, exuded an overwhelming dominance, his skill withering space obliterated the souls of countless soldiers in an instant.
The Imperial cavalry found themselves utterly powerless against this onslaught.
Apart from the gargoyless, every other undead possessed ranged attack capabilities, rendering the cavalry incapable of engaging them.
Even if they managed to reach their foes, it was feudal, for they could not be slain.
What was once the imperial cavalry encircling the six great lords had now transformed into a scenario where the undead surrounded the cavalry.
Lyn Jan had always perceived the undead as feeble skeletal creatures, slowmoving and lacking in combat prowess.
However, upon witnessing by Yu's undead forces, he was astonished to find not a single skeleton among them.
Despite his initial shock at the sheer numbers of Bayou's troops, he still harbored the hope that their quality must be lacking.
Yet, the undead demonstrated a devastating superiority in their battle against the Imperial cavalry, rendering the forces of the six lords as mere decorations in this conflict.
Bayou smiled, for her forces had finally arrived, bringing with them a wealth of experience points.
This was disastrous.
They were indeed undead.
If this continued, their soldiers would be annihilated.
These were the elite of the Empire, and they could not afford to lose them in vain.
Retreat, retreat, Miles shouted, prompting the squad leaders within the army to swiftly organize a withdrawal.
The undead, without needing further instruction from Bayou, pursued relentlessly.
No horse could outrun the speed of the flying undead clang.
Bayou<unk>s scithe clashed once more with Miles.
The other lords joined in the assault against him, and at this juncture, with Miles having yet to claim a single kill, they no longer feared this so-called king.
Moreover, Miles was considerably fatigued, making it nearly impossible for him to eliminate them.
Feeling the urge to retreat, Miles sought to disengage from the relentless skirmish.
They were proving exceedingly troublesome.
Summoning all his strength, Miles unleashed the power of his domain, momentarily repelling his adversaries before making a dash for the rear.
The others remained wary of his potential attack, only to be taken back when he chose to flee outright.
Bayou intended to pursue, but none of the other lords moved to assist.
Even if she managed to catch up, she would be unable to best him alone.
Alas, the cook duck had simply flown away.
The undead ceased their pursuit, recognizing that Miles had returned.
His gravitational domain could instantly suppress the majority of their ranks, and further chase would be feudal.
The remaining lords exhaled a collective sigh of relief as they watched Miles depart.
"Now let's settle the appearance fee," Bayou remarked, hoisting her scythe and gazing at the assembled company.
Having failed to secure the royal corpse, she felt she could not leave empty-handed.
The members of the Elemental Alliance exchanged glances, their silence thick with uncertainty.
What did she mean? Did she still desire a reward? They could hardly be blamed for the failure to slay the promised royal corpse.
Everyone had exerted their utmost efforts.
Besides, she had sought assistance from that vampire.
Shouldn't she be asking him? Are you trying to reigu anger flared? In her current state of heightened aggression, her fire domain remained active and her eyes continued to enhance her power.
The undead in the sky scattered, encircling them.
Give, give, give.
Please calm down, sister.
We're all friends here.
Lung Gia limped over, hastily attempting to mediate the situation.
If he truly angered her, it would spell disaster, especially with so many restless spirits lingering above.
Spare me the pleasantries.
who considers you a friend.
Each person owes 5,000 ingots.
If you lack that, trade other resources.
Of course, Bayou intended to collect debts first.
As Eliangs castle was right here, he could not escape.
5,000 ingots.
Why don't you go steal them? Fong Sha retorted indignantly, for everyone was presently short on ingots.
He himself had not even a thousand in his own storage.
As soon as Fong Sha finished speaking, Bayou appeared before him in an instant.
Fong Xiao was caught completely offguard, never anticipating that Baiu would take immediate action.
She seized him by the throat and forcefully brought him down to the ground.
With a hand pressed against his back, dark flames began to emerge.
Do you think I am justing with you? Chapter 139.
Ransom for life.
The crowd was utterly takenback by by Yu's sudden aggression, promptly preparing for combat.
Yang observing with keen interest thought that if a confrontation ensued he would undoubtedly assist by you as these individuals truly sought to take his life.
