CHAPTER 684: CHAPTER 416: ENCIRCLED BY SKELETONS

"Ke Yiming’s entire team consists of members from the Creator Organization, and the Elamore Biological Pharmaceutical Group controlled by the Creator Organization is in a competitive relationship with your Saville Group.

"You should be more aware than I am of how severe the competition between you is."

Clyde Saville is certainly aware; the competition between the two sides has become so vicious that they have broken the bank hiring a Superpower Mercenary Group to launch attacks.

Although they later reconciled, it was merely a superficial reconciliation.

The Saville Family has also nurtured numerous high-level Superpower Users, even if the Elamore Group wants to deal with them, it’s not so easy.

Upon hearing Lu Heng’s information, Clyde Saville’s face turned pale: "Impossible, I received the oracle through the Spirit Summoning Ceremony."

Lu Heng shook his head and chuckled lightly: "For a demigod, influencing your Spirit Summoning Ceremony is the simplest task. You’re merely a pawn enlisted by the Creator Organization, sent to Da Xia to deal with me.

"Their plan is indeed ingenious, aiming to incite a conflict between me and your family.

"Regardless of which side wins ultimately, they stand to gain as the one who benefits.

"I initially couldn’t see through this layer of relationship until I discovered Ke Yiming’s ties with the Creator Organization, at which point I understood.

"And you truly are laughably foolish; you spent so many days with Ke Yiming without realizing anything wrong with him."

Clyde Saville’s face grew paler because he knew Lu Heng was speaking the truth, and many pieces of information matched up.

He also believed Lu Heng had no reason to fabricate lies.

"If that’s the case, then my family will be..."

"Yes, your family is essentially finished; even if it was the Creator Organization’s scheme, you still committed offenses within Da Xia, and you, indeed, have become a crony of the Bone Sovereign..."

Lu Heng looked into his eyes, speaking carefully: "No matter who wins this Abyss Battlefield, either I or Ke Yiming, once we return, the Saville Consortium will be obliterated."

At this moment, Clyde Saville finally crumbled, grasping at his pant leg and pleading: "Please don’t do this, at least spare the innocents, my girl is still young, she knows nothing, don’t harm her."

Lu Heng looked into his eyes and asked: "Do you think Ke Yiming, returning as the minion of the Evil God, would be more ruthless, or me?"

Clyde Saville is well aware that if the Bone Sovereign wins this Abyss Battlefield, the power of the Undead will spread, potentially invading the Human World.

The Saville Family is indeed finished, but the level of devastation of either outcome is unmistakably severe.

He spoke: "I’ll tell you the Bone Sovereign’s secret; his true form is actually..."

His words abruptly came to a halt.

A black mist appeared behind him, coalescing into a black skeletal claw, clutching his neck, "crack," breaking it.

When Clyde Saville died, he still had his mouth open, trying to speak, but not a single word could emerge.

Terres swung his sword to dispel the black mist-condensed skeletal claw, but it was already too late.

He looked up at the slowly flowing molten lava overhead, and the Abyss Energy attached to it, his expression becoming extremely serious: "The Bone Sovereign must be executing some plot, possibly already started attacking Kolos City, Orelana is in danger, we must go back immediately."

Lu Heng swung his sword to chop through the lava layer, bursting out a heavy cloud of Abyss Demon Energy, frowning and saying: "This layer of Abyss Energy isolates all technological and magical communications and seals off space, unless finding a way to break through this layer of Abyss Demon Energy, otherwise there’s no way out."

Terres had already tried, space movement abilities can’t penetrate this layer of Abyss Demon Energy.

This layer of Abyss Demon Energy is not only formed by the demigod power of the Bone Sovereign, but also gathered with the force of the Abyss, ordinary means are useless.

...

Meanwhile.

In the sky above Kolos City, the night is descending, dark clouds are gathering, and lightning is striking.

The stars and moonlight are veiled by the dark clouds, casting an ominous shadow over Kolos City.

Below the city, a sea of skeletons formed by endless bones is slowly surging under the night sky, the rattling sound of bones rubbing together, like whispers of death.

Above the sky, among the clouds, seven Bone Dragons are flying within the cloud layers.

Among them, each flap of the Hell Demon Dragon’s skeletal wings is accompanied by thunderous rumbles, while the blue flames spewing from its mouth seem capable of igniting the air.

The blue flames, like a fiery cloud, pressed down towards Kolos City, withered the grass and trees, draining all life wherever it passed.

Upon the city walls, Queen Orelana donned in magic armor and wielding her Arcane Wand, her gaze filled with determination and resolve.

"Warriors, for our homeland, for Quel’dorei, we will never retreat!" Queen Orelana’s voice reverberated along the city walls, like a burning torch, igniting the fighting spirit of every Elf Warrior.

Under her command, the Arcane Masters swiftly formed arrays, casting magical light that intertwined into a net, activating the city barrier to fend off the Hell Demon Dragon’s blue flames.

On the city walls and watchtowers, Elf Archers released waves of arrows, attacking the Skeleton Army below.

Arrows like rain pierced through the night sky, each carrying a deep love for their homeland and an indomitable spirit.

Fireballs, Frost Beams, and Lightning Storms from the Arcane Masters followed the arrows into the skeleton ranks, where various elemental powers collided in the air, erupting in brilliant and tragic light.

A hundred thousand Skeleton Army has no formations, moving mechanically like unconscious things, climbing up the city walls.

The first Undead Skeletons rushing forward being shot down by arrows turned into bone piles, stacking under the city walls, layer upon layer, the piles growing taller.

Skeletons coming from behind climbed the bone piles, scaling the city walls, engaged in fierce combat with the Elf Warriors upon the walls.

As more skeletons ascended the walls, cries and shouts from the Elf Warriors rang out, soon casualties began to appear.

Despite this, they still held their ground, unwavering.

Queen Orelana looked at the army of skeletons surging like a black tide outside the city with a deepening solemn expression.

Although she had prepared, the offensive came much faster than expected.

More troubling was that Terres and Lu Heng’s team were already out, seeking the Bone Sovereign.

Without Terres’s combat power, the defense capability of Kolos City was greatly reduced.

Even more worrying, just two hours before the Skeleton Army flooded the city walls, she lost contact with Terres, the Communication Treasure Pearl showed no response.

Fortunately, she could still receive information from Su Muyu’s Communication Treasure Pearl, learning about Terres’s situation from Su Muyu.

According to the information Su Muyu transmitted, Terres and Lu Heng pursued the Bone Sovereign, all the way into the underground Molten Cave, after which the space in the Molten Cave was sealed off, and no information came out.

In communication, she could hear the urgency in Su Muyu’s voice.

This worried her somewhat, but she couldn’t spare the energy to worry about Terres now since Kolos City was facing a huge crisis.

She raised her Magic Wand, casting a lightning magic, shouting: "Hold the wall, absolutely don’t let them break through the wall!"

The Elf Clan’s Arcane Masters and warriors wielded weapons to battle the Undead Skeletons; these undead skeletons had low individual combat power, but the sheer numbers continuously surged up to the walls.

Above, seven Bone Dragons spewed Dragon Flames and Frost, attacking the city barrier.

The city barrier appeared increasingly precarious.

"Fiona!" Queen Orelana turned and shouted towards the Dragon Hawk Knight formation.

"Dragon Hawk Knights, our mission has arrived, follow me into battle, intercept the Bone Dragons in the sky. Charge!" Fiona drew her lance, mounted the Dragon Hawk, pulled the reins, and soared into the sky.

Dragon Hawk Knights followed Fiona into the skies, directing themselves towards the seven Bone Dragons, engaging in combat beneath the clouds.

The battle grew ever more intense, with arrows, magic, and flames weaving together, converging into a brilliant tapestry lighting up the entire night sky.

Screams and roars blended into a heroic war song.
