Chapter 689
Even ants could bring down an elephant!
Greem had scorned this old saying in the past, but now it was playing out right before his eyes; he couldn’t quite accept it as the truth yet.
If it were humans that were facing off against the Flame Fiend now, they would probably have scattered and fallen apart the moment the golem had appeared. How could they possibly be like these undead, fearlessly using their horrifying numbers to push back against the enemy?
It hadn’t even been eight minutes since the Flame Fiend had appeared, yet the number of exterminated undead had already reached the ten thousand. However, the tide of undead showed no signs of reducing in number. In fact, with the surging of undead from the various caves, the dense crowd had almost taken up every inch of space within this massive cavern. They were trying their hardest to strike at the adepts and the Flame Fiend with their ferocious attacks from every angle and every direction.
Of the three adepts, Alice alone had no combat ability to speak of!
She might still wield some sealed Cards of Fate in her hand that she could use to let out some voodoo beasts or servants, but any summoned creature below Second Grade would not be of any use in a situation like this. Even a Second Grade summoned beast with slightly weaker Physique and Strength would be torn apart.
That was why Greem’s only reaction to their predicament was to fire off ultra-large fire spells at an increased frequency.
Firestorm!
However, there was no dealing with the fact that they were being fired in a barrage!
The simultaneous barrage of bone spears from over a hundred bone mages pierced through the Ring of Fire without stop. The negative energy attached to the bone spears clashed with the fire elementium, igniting microscopic elementium explosions in the air. However, the bone spears, tougher than steel, managed to endure the extreme heat and embed themselves within the magma body of the Flame Fiend.
With the gigantic golem shielding him, Greem managed to block all of the remaining bone spears with his Lava Shields.
This first wave of attacks had not dealt any damage to the three of them!
Yet, as the master of the Flame Fiend of Terror, Greem had a clear grasp of the situation.
The elementium reserves inside the Flame Fiend’s magical core had fallen by six percent just enduring this wave of bone spears. If they didn’t find a way to exterminate these bone mages, the powerful Flame Fiend would be beaten down by the relentless attacks of the enemy.
Greem’s eyes flickered, and a series of orders had already been sent out.
The Flame Fiend of Terror that had initially stood in front of him let out a resounding roar. Its body then abruptly vanished in a massive halo of fire that reached toward the sky.
Fire Teleportation!
Under Greem’s instructions, the Flame Fiend had used Fire Teleportation and instantly appeared within the tight formation of the bone mages. It didn’t even need to use any spells. Just the Lava Shields protecting its body and the blazing streams of fire that shrouded its form had dealt horrible area damage to these bone mages.
Just as the Flame Fiend raised its arms and prepared to use a large-scale fire spell to cremate all these bone mages, black lightning flew out from nearby. The blast of lightning pierced through the Flame Fiend’s Lava Shield and three Inferno Shields, going straight into its chest.
This sudden attack caused Greem’s eyebrow to jump. He couldn’t help but turn his stern gaze toward that Second Grade dark knight.
Just now, it was this monster that had thrown its four-meter long lance and pierced the magma body of the Flame Fiend.
Moreover, through the scans and senses of the Chip, Greem had very clearly ‘seen’ the might of that charged attack from the knight.
Five hundred and nineteen points!
That was already a shocking number for a Second Grade dark knight!
The Chip had also managed to estimate the basic attributes of this dark knight through this attack.
[Dark Knight.
Second Grade Undead Creature.
Possesses mastery over dark magical energies.
Bodily attributes: Strength 21-23 | Physique >20 | Agility >15 | Spirit >13 ]
An undead creature like this had attributes far superior to even Greem after his Second Grade advancement.
After all, Greem walked the path of an elementium adept. He had not invested too many resources in his Physique and Strength. It wasn’t until he transformed into a Flame Fiend that his Strength and Physique could reach beyond fifteen points and prove somewhat of a match against these Second Grade creatures.
However, as a Second Grade elementium adept with flame specialization, Greem’s Spirit was as high as twenty-seven points. That was already a decent start for most Second Grade adepts.
If Greem wanted to defeat this Second Grade dark knight, his best option was to maintain a certain distance with it and rely on his powerful fire spells to drown out the undead.
Just as Greem gritted his teeth and stood forward, Uzzah’s cold and stern voice suddenly rang out from behind him.
“You stay here. Leave that dark knight to me!”
A sinister and chilling laugh rang out, and Uzzah had already vanished from the spot.
