Chapter 559
But Yuki had lost all sense of deception; he simply accelerated with the Living Corpse, raised his Black Blade, and faced the vampires dodging the Chaos Furnace Flame.
"Shalltear, watch out!"
Swish--
A black and white blade of light cleaved the vampire in two, leaving him no chance to utter a sound. His large feet stepped on the mangled corpse and continued forward, growing faster and faster until they transformed into golden lightning.
Thump.
He crashed into the spatial rift, shattering it with two slashes, then raised his gun and aimed at the mage in the round hat not far away.
Bang!
The Monster IV Soul Bullet blasted it into pieces, and it continued charging towards the retreating enemy.
"We need to find a way out quickly. This is 'Taiyi's' true form; we are no match for it."
Fear was useless. Ainz forced himself to calm down with his passive skill, extended his staff forward, and contemplated the portal in front of him.
Super-tier magic. The Army of the Dead.
Hundreds of monsters burst out from the crevice, yet a calm, green light reappeared on Ainz.
Due to the rule suppression, his super-tier magic was weakened by at least one-third.
The pale, Chaos Furnace Flame spread, scorching the Furnace itself, but they couldn't wait any longer and retreated one by one to the border, until the headless knight at the front crashed into a crystal wall.
Crystal War Banner?
They were quite familiar with this prop. Sure enough, a battle flag stood beneath the pile of corpses, next to an energy ball, and a puppet stood beside it, constantly converting and inputting energy.
The Stand User acted as power banks, while the Divine Torch suppressed their firepower. Even when they concentrated their energy, the reflective mirror formed by the Demonbreaker's Domain perfectly countered it.
The problem is, to escape the border they must break through the crystal wall, and to break through the crystal wall they must seize the mountain of corpses. But standing in their way is the Roar Khorne Champion.
On average, level Monster I monsters were hacked down like chickens. Trying to bypass them meant clashing with the Living Corpse. The demons, wielding their Black Blade, were ferocious and terrifying, radiating pure will.
Blood sacrifice to the Blood God, skull offering to the skull seat, slaughtering all things to achieve oneness!
Chapter Eight: One Roar Repels Ten Thousand Armies!
Jedi.
It seemed that the Total Annihilation had broken through the seal and was no longer an inanimate object. It superimposed with the Light of Divine Punishment, and the black and white blade light shattered all the matter in front of it.
Shields were shattered, armor torn apart, and even magic was shattered. Khorne's advance was unstoppable, bringing the purest carnage.
Ainz had specially enhanced his demon army, which was used as a trump card, and it was cut through. Countless corpses filled the sea of blood, but the demons in his eyes never tired.
No, to be precise, it became even more powerful. The blood flames on its body continued to boil. It didn't need any tactical planning; it simply squeezed out every last bit of energy to kill all living things in front of it.
What should we do?
Neltharion, a player who had been a boss before, was unexpectedly in dire straits. He blasted cracks into the crystallized wall, but ultimately could not break through it.
The billowing, pale flames of the furnace constantly squeezed their space for hiding, and the flying swords weaved back and forth, making it impossible for them to concentrate their firepower.
Unable to escape, with the god of death closing in, are they simply waiting for this Furnace to collapse on its own? But even if they escape, what good will it do? Can they avoid that black butcher's blade?
Kill!
Yuki didn't care what these people were thinking. He raised his gun and blasted a player who had gone mad with fear to pieces. The tide then spread around him again.
The Sea God's Blessing.
The headless knight Beldia transformed into black lightning, his Epic Metamorphosis capable of instantly annihilating any opponent, only to find his speed slowed by the tide. The burning demon had already regained its senses, raised its hand to grasp his spear, and slammed him and his horse into a sea of blood.
Boom.
A giant foot stomped on it, and the black armor instantly deflated. At that moment, a bright breath of lava flew in from afar.
Death Light!
The compressed breath was no more than the thickness of a fist, but its power had increased hundreds of times, carving a bright crack in the Furnace space until the Sea God's Tide slowed down.
Visible.
Yuki ducked to avoid the ray, but as Neltharion lowered his head, the crimson beam slashed down like a sword. Several layers of the Demonbreaker Mirrors that had been blocking it were instantly split in two, but that was enough time for him to react.
His right hand gripped the headless knight like an iron clamp, using it as a shield above his head, and he used his incredibly hard black armor to resist the sweeping beams of Death Light. His other hand held Black Blade and slashed at the black-armored warrior who suddenly appeared beside him.
Clang--
The black axe clashed with the Black Blade, and the overwhelming force sent Albedo flying. In the instant the headless knight was cleaved by the ray, Yuki spun in place.
Swish.
The ray slashed past his chest, cutting into the sea of blood and causing his chest to rot. The black muscles withered away, revealing the stark white bones, but he didn't utter a sound. He casually flicked his Black Blade, sweeping towards Albedo was still in the air.
Bite.
The guardian spun in mid-air, using all her strength to deflect the longsword. A flash of black and white light appeared, slicing the closed helmet in two. Her black hair cascaded down, and her beautiful face was filled with bewilderment.
Destroy!
The girl saw the monster clench its fist in the air, crushing the soul that had escaped from its armor, and then pull out a hunting rifle with its other hand, pointing it at the King of the Undead was gathering magic power not far away.
"You must not harm Ainz!"
Epic Metamorphosis. Loyal Guardian.
A chain linked Albedo to the Undying King; the projectile aimed at the Undying King vanished into the void, while spiderweb-like cracks appeared on her black armor's chest.
Combining protection and damage reduction, any attack on the Undead King will be reflected back at them. The two have used this combination to kill countless bosses, so it's no wonder that Ainz doesn't even glance at them.
One shot missed; the encirclement had begun.
Neltharion descended like a meteor, his wings blotting out the sky, while a beam of azure light, Falling Sky, struck the enemy's head first. Yet, Yuki remained expressionless, and a ghostly horse materialized beneath him.
Epic Metamorphosis. The War God Plunder.
Death Charge!
This was an ability recently usurped from the headless horseman Beldia. The enemy didn't have the Sea God's Tide to slow down their speed; the Extreme Speed, instantaneous charge left only a black line in the Furnace.
Whoosh--boom--
The Falling Sky and the exploding Death Meteor behind them caused the entire Furnace to shake violently. In that instant of confusion, Albedo was sent flying through the air, Yuki grabbed her by the throat and plunged straight into the pale river of flames.
The Chaos Furnace Flame scorched the two of them, melting any defensive items. After the battle, the furnace fire had gathered into a small lake, and Yuki pressed her down to the bottom of the lake.
This madman...
Fists powerful enough to split mountains and cleave rivers relentlessly pounded on Yuki's body. Albedo's eyes reflected a crazed shadow, also ignited by the furnace fire, resisting with its own blood and flames. Its body was still being burned relentlessly, but it seemed to feel no pain, its eyes filled with a thirst for slaughter.
Epic Metamorphosis: Damage Transfer.
Albedo initiated her second qualitative change, and a player fighting on the outskirts was instantly turned into a human torch. This was a pre-prepared scapegoat, but how could Yuki possibly compete with her in terms of fire resistance?
Here comes the knife.
Total Annihilation the Black Blade in his hand; it was impervious to any Chaos Furnace Flame. At the same time, the King of the Undead outside the 'Lake of Flames' was frantic with worry, for the chains allowed both sides to share each other's five senses.
Albedo!
It pulled out a crystal knife, which expanded hundreds of times in the air after being thrown.
Abyss Grade Item: Sever All Things!
Swish--
This strike cleaved through the Chaos Furnace Flame, revealing the girl pinned to the ground and the demon pressing down on her.
Yuki didn't dodge, but instead Black Blade. Albedo didn't dodge either, but instead pressed down on Yuki's left hand, turning her head to look at the Undying King.
"Lord Ainz, I love you."
Destroy!
Yuki cleaved the female demon in two with a single strike, but he himself was also cut in half by the level seven item, the Crystal Blade. The wound stretched from his left collarbone to his right rib, yet he felt no pain.
Vitality Shift.
It wasn't killed with a single blow; the severed body grew granulation tissue, connecting with the wound.
Regenerative Tail!
Khorne's champion seemed immortal; his left hand, encased in a grotesque gauntlet, crushed a soul, and he heard a blood-curdling the Roar behind him.
"I'm going to kill you!!"
The passive skill of forced calm failed, and the Undying King was enraged. All the comrades he brought from his homeland had been slaughtered by this person. He controlled the crystal blade and slashed at Yuki again, even ignoring the densely packed flying swords.
"Idiot, cut down these light bands first."
Neltharion flew over, spreading his wings to block the flying sword. He wasn't shocked by the Undead King's trump card; instead, he sensed that something was terribly wrong.
This bastard has lost his mind. You're trying to out-madness a lunatic; isn't that like using your weakness against their strength?
The Undead King completely ignored him; he was no longer the lord of the Great Tomb, nor a powerful mage, but merely a vengeful spirit.
Kill him! Kill him! Kill him!
The Sever All Things, like a flying sword, slashed back and forth, bombarding the ever-advancing demon, but with little effect.
Even if it strikes the Yuki, it can still repair itself at supersonic speed. All the real vital points Total Annihilation by the annihilation. The 'Sever All Things' does not include this Black Blade. Moreover, the side effects of a level seven item are astonishing.
Dense cracks appeared on the Crystal Blade and the King of the Undead, as if each strike would also cut into himself, but Ainz was completely insane, and Neltharion did nothing more than provide cover.
"Better to sacrifice a friend than myself." Since the King of the Undead wants to fight tooth and nail to kill his opponent, why not just quietly cover for him?
Click.
The crystal blade shattered into pieces, scattering everywhere. The Undying King's eyes flashed red, locking onto the advancing demon.
"Let's see how you stop me! We'll die together!!"
Hundreds of fragments crashed down at once, as if being slowly Total Annihilation. Even the toughest Jumie couldn't stop them all, but Yuki only needed one move.
Epic Metamorphosis. The War God Plunder.
Damage Transfer.
Hundreds of fragments Piercer his body, shattering him in terms of time and space, but like Kyoka Suigetsu, his body instantly recovered, while only the substitute beneath the mountain of corpses in the distance exploded into a cloud of Blood Mist.
The death of the Stand caused damage to Yuki, leaving his body covered in dense bloodstains, but this was far from fatal.
What!?
The elation of a desperate comeback had barely begun to rise before it was shattered. As the demon, covered in blood, flames, and blood-stained blades, continued to charge, the Undying King's head buzzed.
As the price for overloading a level 7 item, its steel-like body shattered; the cost of its ability to Sever All Things was that every swing of its blade struck itself.
"That bastard can steal our skills!"
Neltharion fled instantly, then turned around and saw his doppelganger shatter beneath the mountain of corpses, and a surge of wild joy welled up within him.
The opportunity has arrived!
Without a word, he immediately pounced into the distance, and upon hearing the crisp sound of sharp weapons slicing through bone, he frantically flapped his wings.
We can't win, we absolutely can't win. Once we get out, we must escape immediately and go fetch the Judge.
As long as you can run faster than your teammates, you can survive. The mighty Deathwing didn't even dare to turn his head. Driven by the sounds of slashing and screams, his wings left afterimages.
Click--
It smashed through the crystalline wall with all its might. Without a continuous supply of energy, this thing couldn't stop it at all. It flew into the blood-red sky, crossed the barrier of night, and tore apart the oncoming net of light in an instant.
It's out.
Neltharion could vaguely see the battlefield ahead. The starry sky had been destroyed, and his remaining subordinates were fleeing in disarray. However, all the players in the tower were huddled around the teleportation crystal, refusing to give chase.
Deathwing preferred to charge the defenses rather than return to that damned Furnace. The boundary of night was right before him; he could even see the tower players preparing for battle.
But at that moment, the enormous longan froze, because a phantom was right beside it, and some memories that had been erased by fear resurfaced.
The last of the Moonlight Clone were pulled into the Furnace by this thing, and then it became the goalkeeper...
Crimson flames ignited on this spatial coordinate, and the completely berserk Yuki appeared before it, raising its gun and using the soul material of the headless knight Beldia as a projectile.
There was no plan; it was simply the instinct to fight and kill.
No!
Bang--
