Immortal Lord
In the Millennium Empire Ibrium, the number of S-class undead created by the Death Lord was expected not to exceed 1,000, no matter how many.
Of course, the number of Death Knights and Acrich was unprecedented in history, but they thought that it was a number that could be afforded by mobilizing the power of the Imperial magic tower.
However, it was a story when it was assumed that the 9-star knights and 6-circle wizards who were stationed there in the state of being invaded by the four territories of the Millennium Empire became undead by the power of the Death Lord.
It must have been that he had not expected that the corpses would come from the old battlefield and the entire tombs of demons who died in that war as a dungeon.
So, the sight that unfolded in front of Leon and his party now is an S-class undead corps with more than 10,000 units.
It was 10 times larger than what was originally expected.
“Okay, stop working. The Death Lord is definitely here! So, we have to call the lords of the tower and gather them here!”
It was Stilrat Kaurd, one of the elders of the Imperial Fire magic tower, who claimed so with a pale face.
Considering the current situation of the Millennium Empire, in which the command line of the troops was transferred from the imperial family to the magic tower, he was a leader who could give command to Leon and Olivia in name and reality.
However,
“The exit seems to be over there.”
When Leon pointed to the temple where the Death Lord reigned, Stilrat Cowrd shook his head in denial of reality.
“No, it cannot be. There’s already a breakout here. Even if it was a closed dungeon in the past, this means that the exit has already been opened.”
Then he retreated and with the wizards of the Imperial magic tower, he retreated toward the border of the dungeon and began to trace everywhere.
Usually the dungeon is closed by an invisible wall.
And the wall is set as an exit to the handover when a breakout of the dungeon occurs.
The structure of the dungeon is maintained by the power of the demon, and when the breakout of the dungeon occurs, the world itself that maintained the dungeon will collapse sooner or later, so the monsters that inhabit the dungeon can quickly get out of the dungeon. will be.
However, what the wizards of the Imperial magic tower found was the boundary of the dungeon that still existed like a solid wall.
“This cannot be! Why the hell…?”
Initially, this dungeon was a special product.
Even though a considerable amount of time has passed since the breakout, the exit is not closed, and it is a fact that can be seen from the fact that it still exists.
The demon gods of the Demon Realm were determined to destroy the Millennium Empire and constituted this dungeon.
Naturally, in order to protect the Death Lord, which is the core of the operation, the demons put more effort into the structure of the dungeon than usual.
Due to the structure of the dungeon, it is impossible to prevent the intrusion of outsiders.
If so, it has been made into a structure that can be entered but cannot easily get out.
“Sir Leon’s words are true. I found the location of the exit through observation magic…”
A wizard of the Wind magic tower wearing a green robe.
Wind magic has an extraordinary ability to participate in the flow of power.
For this operation, he was a person who was put into this operation as an expert in the field of magic observation that measures the grade of the dungeon.
“It has been observed that the exit of the dungeon is located in that temple.”
At those words, the faces of the wizards were dyed with despair.
Leon and Olivia, as well as the knights and wizards, the number of people in the party was 20.
Of course, considering each ability, it is by no means a small number.
Because the number of personnel in each unit heading to the four provinces that had been invaded by the undead legions was about that number.
But the opponent was the opponent.
An army of S-class undead over ten thousand.
No matter how great Leon and Olivia’s abilities were, they couldn’t handle all that number.
“I’m going to die like this…”
“It’s a dog death! I just pinpointed the location of the Death Lord…!”
“It is already late. look at that number Even now, the number continues to grow.”
“It is the fall of the Millennium Empire…!”
The mental power of the magicians, each in 7 circles, is so weak.
Well, it must be such a desperate situation.
But Leon did not despair.
“Are you going to give up like this?”
“What?”
“It’s not too late. The Death Lord has already raised a large number of undead, but if this is enough, it will still be a number that the Millennium Empire’s military might can handle. However, there must be plenty of corpses that have not yet become undead in this land. You must subdue the Death Lord. Even in order to prevent him from calling the number of the undead any more.”
Even if you subdue the Death Lord, the S-Class Undead will not disappear.
However, once the Death Lord could be subjugated, it would have been possible to prevent the undead from multiplying.
“It is, but how the hell?”
Of course, Leon did not have a clear answer.
However, I wanted to refrain from falling apart so helplessly just because the opponent’s power was strong.
“You have to resist until the end.”
frontal breakthrough.
Run the shortest distance to minimize power consumption.
You don’t have to face all 10,000 undead forces.
If only you could make a way to reach the temple, if you could subdue the Death Lord, you would be able to get out through the exit located in the temple.
It was an ignorantly simple operation, but everyone knew it.
that that’s the only way.
And once they had a simple but planned plan, the wizards were able to kindle the spark of resistance in the darkness of despair.
The formation was structured in such a way that Daniel, Leon, and Olivia, who had the most powerful inaction, took the lead and squeezed through the gaps in the undead army, followed by the knights who opened the way, and the wizards chased the undead from behind.
Prior to that, Leon developed a magic that would overthrow the undead army.
“Atomic Burst Blade.”
A dazzling sun rose in the gray sky covered with volcanic ash.
Leon, who forged the sun into a single sword with the power of the spirit of order Dice, demonstrated his power against the undead forces.
In front of that mythical inaction, the army of the undead splits.
The undead that came in direct contact with the sword of the sun turned into ashes and returned to darkness, and even if they were not directly exposed to that power, there was no way they could properly hold themselves in front of the authority that embraces the power of the sun.
For the party, it was not just a light.
A light of hope that illuminates despair.
“Photonic Boost.”
Enhancement magic that directly produces bio-energy in the body based on the principle of photosynthesis.
I pass it on to all my companions.
The light emitted from the sun called Leon became a real power and was being supplied to them.
The Breath of the Sun, a martial art that only Reeves, the fairy of the forest can handle.
The blessing of the sun god that dwells in it was bestowed upon them with Leon’s magic.
“If it’s this, if it’s this, it’s possible…!”
At the same time, Daniel and Olivia ran out.
He swung his sword and claws towards the Death Knights, who survived in front of the sword of the sun wielded by Leon, but still couldn’t control himself.
They also managed to raise an aura and try to defend it to the minimum, but Daniel’s black ones, who have physical abilities enhanced by a photonic boost to Daniel, who has 12-star status, were simply slashed with an aura.
Olivia’s change was even more dramatic.
Daniel was already a completed knight, but Olivia was all about violently wielding the power of the Yongin people.
As the total amount of power increased, it was a natural result to show more power.
Of course, she was drunk with that power and didn’t take proper defense, so she looked precarious, but it didn’t matter to her.
The scales she wore all over her body were dragon scales.
The hardest substance made up of soul matter.
Death Knight’s aura pierced her chest, but Olivia’s skin was not scratched.
Her entire skin had been implanted with dragon scale, and as long as her heart kept beating, that level of attack could not hold Olivia’s breath.
The knights lined up in the form of a wedge widen the path behind them.
They tried to remain as cool as possible, but an uncontrollable force surged from within, fueling their excitement.
“They said he was recognized as a saint in the Holy Empire…”
“It is as if God directly descended on this earth.”
At that moment, the magic baptism of the Archrichs began to pour.
Although the solar sword wielded by Leon was certainly powerful, it attracted the attention of the Archrichs, and the Archrichs made with demons had the ability to hit the target with magic even from a distance of several kilometers.
7 circle magic.
Innumerable magics poured down like rain to stop Leon and his party.
It collapsed like a moth leaping into a bonfire before Veronica’s sword.
Not only that, but the scattered magical energy becomes Veronica’s power and burns fiercely.
The road once opened by Leon’s magic was filled up again by the surrounding undead crowds, but everything burned before the power of the Fire God wielded by Veronica.
divine swordsmanship.
Veronica’s swordsmanship, which had completely mastered the martial arts developed by Leon as her own, was at best at the level of 10 stars, but thanks to the magic-burning aura and photonic boost, its power was at a level comparable to that of the 12-star knight Daniel. .
However, if there is one disappointment, Veronica’s movements are not that excellent.
In front of Veronica’s flames, her entire lower body flew away and a Death Knight lying on the floor attacked her.
But before that, a thunderbolt falling from the sky crushes the skull.
“Look out. veronica. If you get hurt, Leon-sama will be sad.”
“Oh, thank you.”
And the party was finally able to reach the front of the temple.
It was not without sacrifice.
Two knights and five wizards were left behind.
However, the party had to forget the sacrifice of their colleagues and move forward.
The place that appeared after the long hallway was a huge hall.
A space filled with countless bones.
On the throne made of bones, three seals were waiting for everyone.
they speak together
[[[I didn’t expect guests to come here.]]]
Everyone instinctively realized.
Death Road.
A monarch who rules over death.
But who the hell out of these three is the Death Lord?
Leon felt that the three of them were all equally powerful.
A powerful magic wave that can be understood by any of the three Death Lords.
“Maybe there were three Death Lords.”
At the sound of one wizard’s voice, they began to laugh at the same time as if they were breathing with each other.
[[[I am the only monarch over death]]]
And Leon realized.
“The mental waves that they feel are all the same.”
Mental waves are a kind of fingerprint that makes up the soul.
In other words, the three skeletons were all the same person sharing the same soul.
“Maybe he split his soul into three parts.”
Necromancer is magic that deals with the soul.
A technique for turning a dead body into a dead but not dead undead with a soul, using a dead body as a vessel.
If so, wouldn’t it be possible to divide one’s soul into several parts?
[[[Not three]]]
The gnome revealed the truth about his identity as if he was giving him a favor.
[[[I am the lord of death, one of seven. Desperate to be alive.]]]
Leon could sense that what he said was true.
The Imperial magic tower had already speculated that the Death Lord would be in one of the four territories occupied, but in fact, all of those four estates were the correct answer.
The clones of the Death Lord were located in each estate, and the remaining three Death Lords were living in the Temple of the Forgotten Tomb.
“It doesn’t matter how many you are. I will destroy them all.”
Leon, who had been conserving his strength until he reached the temple, opened up the power he had accumulated.
Overcharge, Divine Impact.
Leon’s overcharged lightning bolts poured out toward the Death Lord in the form of the brightest light in the world.
But something was strange.
Leon felt their abilities were overwhelming.
No matter how powerful Leon’s magic is, they must have the power to block them at least once.
However, they accepted Leon’s magic into their body without any resistance.
And bone dust scattered in vain.
“What, what? Could it be that you messed it up?”
At that moment, the bones filled in the huge hall vibrated and the three seals rose again.
[[[I am the immortal lord]]]
Leon could understand.
‘If the seven clones share the same soul, if all seven clones possess the same immortal power…’
Was it even possible to kill him?
Even if I die, the other self rises up again.
In other words, the power of the Death Lord was an ability that could not be killed without destroying the seven clones at the same time.
