Omega Summoner
chapter-237

Adrian teleported to another city that will be raided by the undead in about one hour. The destruction of Alabaster Fortress and the cities made huge waves of displeasure. The players who also joined in raiding the undead are on the fence because of the continuous defeats every time they try hitting the marching undead.

Though their hope is renewed when the undead is actually marching towards the next city. The next city is near the holy capital Sanctus which means more priests and paladins would be able to take part in the defense. It is even speculated that the Pope of the Church of Light herself will join the battle.

Adrian is now waiting in this city that is called Abelpoint. He actually tried to deter the undead marching their way every now and again but he would fail. It seems that the reported doom knight that is marching with the undead is specifically aiming at him whenever he teleports near them.

The sensing radius of the doom knight is so vast that Adrian could not get near within a hundred meters of the marching undead in order to do something. The doom knight even managed to take his arm out with just one attack so he had to immediately leave.

He even tried joining other player groups who are numerous in attacking the undead but the doom knight would always prioritize him whenever Adrian would cast a spell. It got to the point that it annoyed Adrian that he no longer participated in small sieges so he opted to wait in the city that will be sieged by the undead.

"That freaking doom knight always attacks me every chance I use a spell. It seems it can sense my demon aura every time that I use a skill. Well, he would not have the chance to strike at me this time." Adrian stated as he looked towards a familiar carriage that he has once seen before on Sanctus.

Adrian is starting at the carriage that is used by the Pope of the Church of Light. He also looked at the next carriage that is near the carriage of the Pope of the Church of Light. The carriage next to it has the sigil of the Church of Life.

The carriage from the Church of Life opened and he saw his best friend and Elder Willow along with other elders of the church and their disciples with them. He smiled as he got more than what he bargained for.

The undead should have not targeted Abelpoint but Adrian made it so. The undead should traverse the terrain that is a hundred meters away from this city but Adrian lured them here. He used himself as bait in order to change the course of the marching undead slightly by radiating his aura and provoke the doom knight.

If the players know what he did then he would become public enemy number one. All the pent up frustration of the players who had their familiar towns shattered will be directed to him. He might even have a kill on sight order against him if it was known.

Adrian wanted to lead them to Sanctus but the marching undead is strictly heading north despite his attempts. Fortunately, Abelpoint seems to be an important place for the Church of Light because this place has the next city that has numerous paladins of the church of light besides Sanctus. Adrian wanted to know why but the undead came first as there is 30 hours remaining before the undead reached the north.

"How are they going to reach the far north in one day? They should cross the sea and that should be impossible without crossing the frozen sea." Adrian thought.

=====

The forums are buzzing with the news of the marching undead still but two particular posts made everyone lose it.

"Ghost Ships are docking at the port that leads to the northern continent."

"I was turned into an undead by the black armored undead knight."

These posts made every player lose it as they now know why the strength of the incoming horde became stronger. Adrian also felt the horde increasing but he did not bother using his evil eye or could not because of the doom knight. If he did find out that players are increasing the ranks of the marching undead then he might have curse them for making his job harder than it already is.

=====

Adrian who just finished reading the forums could only frown as having players in the ranks of the marching undead changes the game. Creepysoo told Adrian that he has a unique revival option that he could immediately revive with 80% health as long as his body is not completely destroyed or hit with a holy attack.

Adrian is sure that the players will be able to revive instantly but their health should be lower when revived if compared with Creepysoo. It would be unfair for the first player to become an undead if others who became an undead will be the same as him.

"I want to team up with Marlon (Levin Cloud) but it seems he is already busy with something with the Church of Life. I guess I have to do this solo." Adrian stated as the officials of the two churches went inside the mage tower located in the city.

"They already went inside the mage tower for an hour already. What are they doing there?" Adrian stated and the he felt an explosion of energy coming from the mage tower.

The energy did not seem harmless but it is more holy in nature. The energy then became a dome of holy energy covering the entire city of Abelport which Adrian thought as something odd. He has his speculations why the two churches would expend their power to cover the entire city with a holy attribute barrier.

"Even Sanctus does not have a holy barrier like this despite being the holy city. Why would the Church of Light ask for the help of the Church of Life in setting up a barrier with this scale? It just does not add up. All those who participated in making a barrier this big would be unable to go into battle. Most importantly, the undead would avoid this place." Adrian stated in an annoyed manner.

Adrian is very annoyed because he tried very hard luring the undead here but now all of it has gone down the drain. He used his Blink to get out the city and flew above the clouds to see the route of the marching undead and to his dismay they did turn. It seems the Pope did not come to this location to subjugate the undead instead she came to protect the city of Abelport.

"What are they hiding in this city? Might as well ask Marlon (Levin Cloud) later of he has an idea." Adrian stated as he teleported to the port cities that are currently being siege by undead that came from the sea.
