Strongest Necromancer Of Heaven's Gate

Lux, Asmodeus, and their clones summoned Skeleton Warriors left and right, and would, from time to time, use Corpse Explosions to deter the Ammarian Army from going all out against the Yelan Army, who were now starting to gain momentum.

"I'm starting to hate Necromancers now," Great General Gideon muttered as he raised his hand to issue an order to one of his Aides. "Send a message to General Herodes to reinforce our right flank. Also, tell the Clerics to focus on setting up barriers to contain the spread of the Corpse Explosions."

"Yes, Great General!" The Aide bowed his head respectfully before carrying out the orders given to him.

Aside from the Skeleton Gangbangers, Skeleton Grand Archers, and Skeleton Mages, the Rock Golems had also joined the battle.

The Rock Golems' main role wasn't to join the vanguard in battle, but to throw big boulders behind the enemy lines tp break the formation of the Ammarian Army.

Although they weren't as numerous as the Skeleton Army, which numbered in the hundreds, they were still sixty golems strong.

These mobile catapults that kept on using the skill Rock Throw were formidable in their own right, and the Ammarian Army couldn't do anything about it.

Lux had positioned these Rock Golems behind the Blood Golem, who had now breached the enemy's formation.

The Ammarian Army was forced to choose between the Abomination in front of them and the Rock Golems that were throwing giant rocks over their heads.

Making a decision was simple. The Blood Golem was the immediate threat that towered above them and was also easier to attack compared to the Rock Golems that were throwing rocks from a safe distance away.

General Herodes, who had been ordered to send most of the bulk of his army to contend against the Blood Golem, was having a difficult time because the strongest General of the Yelan Kingdom, General Carran, was preventing him from attacking the Blood Golem directly.

"Get out of my way, you punk!" General Herodes roared as he swung his polearm towards the Yelan General who calmly blocked his attack with ease.

Instead of giving a reply, General Carran unleashed a powerful attack that pushed the Ammarian General back, making the latter curse out loud.

"The Blood Golem proved to be a very good distraction," Asmodeus said with a smile. "Unfortunately, it will take some time before the preparations for our Plan B are done."

Lux nodded. "We just need to be patient until Eiko is done with her task."

Just as Lux was about to summon more Skeleton Gangbangers to replenish his Undead Army, Keane and Val finally arrived at the frontlines, alongside a pale-faced Xander, who seemed to have suffered from a serious injury.

"Xander, you don't need to join the battle right away," Lux said as he looked at the young man who was barely standing on top of his Flying Manta Ray. "Just meditate and try to recover as much as you can. Cai is currently up there with Bedivere, so you don't have to worry about her safety."

Xander raised his head to look at the Wind Dragon who was hovering at the rear of the Yelan Army. Not far away from Bedivere, the Griffin Riders of the Ammarian Army as well as the Hippogriff Riders of the Yelan Army were having a bloodbath in the skies of the battlefield.

Lux had ordered Bedivere to stay at the back of the formation, so that they wouldn't be targeted by the Griffin Brigade and be put in danger.

As an extra precaution, Ishtar, who was currently riding a Griffin that Lux had stolen from the Ammarian Army, was by their side and keeping watch for anyone foolish enough to head in their direction.

"Keane, Val, you can go and assist Einar and Malcolm at the frontlines," Lux stated. "Make sure that those two don't kick the bucket."

Keane and Val smirked, knowing that Lux was just joking. As long as Einar and Malcolm didn't find themselves facing off against a Ranker, the two of them would not die so easily.

Even so, since they were itching to join the battle, the two didn't hesitate and regrouped with their teammates.

"How about you?" Lux asked Henrietta, who was standing beside him. "Aren't you going to join the battle?"

The corner of Henrietta's lips rose before replying to Lux's question.

"My mission is to keep watch over you," Henrietta replied. "It is the Headmaster's orders, so I can't leave even if I wanted to."

Lux scratched his head because Henrietta's answer was fool proof. Right now, Iris, Alexander, and Alicia were probably watching him, so he decided to just let Henrietta do what she wanted.

Also, he didn't mind letting the purple-haired beauty stay by his side. The battle was getting more fierce with each passing minute, and he didn't want her to die accidentally due to any unexpected twists and turns.

As for the others?

Lux believed that they wouldn't allow themselves to die, especially now that they were so close in completing their mission.

"What are you thinking right now?"

The sudden question that came from behind him broke Lux out of his daze.

"A lot of things," Lux replied. "But, I'm sure that Great General Sherlock is thinking more than I am."

The Gnome smiled after hearing Lux's reply. He was very happy that Lux had decided to join their faction. The mere thought of facing the Half-Elf's undead army was enough to give the Great General a headache that he didn't want to experience.

"Is there anything you need from me, Great General?" Lux asked.

Now that the battle was at its most intense phase, the Great General of the Gnomes should be at the center of the army and giving out orders, instead of having a casual chat with him.

"Yes," Great General Sherlock replied. "I noticed that Eiko is not with you right now. Are you planning something that I don't know?"

The Half-Elf smiled before nodding his head.

"Yes. I am preparing a surprise for the Ammarian Army, and Eiko is busy setting up the stage for it."

"Oh? I love surprises. Can you tell me what this surprise is?"

The Half-Elf trusted Great General Sherlock, so he didn't mind sharing his plan with him. After hearing the Half-Elf's strategy, the Gnome chuckled before narrowing his eyes to look in the direction where the Main Flag of the Ammarian Army was located.

"What a bold move," Great General Sherlock stated. "But, it is the thing we need to break this stalemate. Although the Blood Golem is truly powerful, Great General Gideon has a powerful artifact in his possession that can be used to destroy it completely.contemporary romance

"The only reason why he isn't using it right now is because it can only be used at a limited number of times. He understands that you can summon another Blood Golem, so wasting the artifact against it is useless."

Henrietta, who was listening to the conversation at the side, frowned before voicing out her thoughts.

"Great General, wouldn't they lose more soldiers if they allowed the Blood Golem to become stronger?" Henrietta inquired. "What will they do if it reaches Argonaut Rank?"

"Good question!" Great General Sherlock sighed. Truth be told, he came to talk to Lux and tell him that the artifact was in General Gideon's possession.

Aside from its ability to instantly kill strong Monsters, it had another ability, and that was taking control over them.

In fact, Great General Sherlock believed that Great General Gideon was only waiting for the Blood Golem to become an Argonaut-Ranked World Boss before forcefully taking control of it and making it do his bidding.
