Reincarnated as the Demon King's Son

chapter-348
Brath roared and slashed the golem's right arm. A large cut appeared on the golem's shoulder, and Brath slashed once again, cutting it off.
The arm went flying a few meters away, and the 2-meter tall blade stabbed the ground. The type 2 fighter golem staggered a few steps back before a gigantic lightning arrow blasted its chest, making it fall on its back.
"Devil Lightning!" Breth shouted.
Claw-shaped lightning came from above and struck directly at the golem, creating a ten-meter-wide crater. The golem had lightning crackling around its body as it struggled to stand up.
"This thing is quite resilient," Breth commented"But it's already on its last leg." Brath lifted his sword about to attack, but he frowned when he saw cut-off limbs move back toward the golem, and then connected back again.
Breth widened his eyes. "A golem that can regenerate… this is very interesting. To have this power, a golem must consume an enormous amount of mana. How can this golem contain it so much? And there's no sign of it running out of energy either."
After a few seconds, the golem stood tall once again. It was inexhaustible, tireless, emotionless, and even unfeeling.
This was the true power of a golem. It lacked flesh and blood, which meant it lacked the weakness of a mortal being.
Brath snorted. "All I need to do is cut you faster before you regenerate."
Aldred smiled in the war room when he heard that. "Time for phase two."
A portal opened above the golem and a weird-evil-looking weapon, the combination of a longsword and a spear fell from the portal.Brath, Breth, and Broth shivered when they felt the presence of that weapon. Breth was especially sensitive to aura, and his expression was dark.
The type 2 fighter golem put its two swords and picked up the Phantom Doomblade. Suddenly, bloody-red lines ran from its arms and went all over its body. Its strength was increased manifold because the Phantom Doomblade not only contained the soul of every creature Aldred killed, but also a small part of his blood essence.
The type 2 golem raised the blade and swung forward. Suddenly, the blade shattered into dozens of parts but was still connected by an invisible link.
Like a whip, it went towards Broth.
"Fuck!" Broth fired his bow. "Precise Arrow!"
One powerful arrow shot toward the blade, but the arrow was engulfed by flame when it got near.
He could not react as the blade parts wrapped around his left arm and ripped it off.
Broth screamed in pain before the blade moved toward his neck and beheaded him.
"Broth!" Brath and Breth shouted.
"Fuck, we have to get out of here." Breth activated his haste spell.
"No, we have to avenge Broth."
"He's dead! And we will suffer the same fate."
"You go. I will stay and kill that thing."
"Suit yourself. I am out of here." Breth rode on his magic staff and flee.
"Golem, fight me!" Brath charged toward the golem, leaping, and swinging his sword downward.
The Phantom Doomblade retracted to its original form, making a clunking sound as the blade parts clashed with each other.
Brath's sword landed on the golem's head, but it was blocked with its hand. It didn't even manage to make a dent, unlike last time.
"Impossible…" Brath widened his eyes in disbelief.
That was when the Phantom Doomblade slashed his neck. His head fell.
Breth looked back and gritted his teeth. "That fool! I am going to avenge you two. I will find whoever did this and torture him for 1000 days!"
A mist of blood appeared in front of him, and it transformed into the type 2 fighter golem.
Breth pulled his magic staff, breaking in the air before he steered it toward the side. "FUCK! FUCK! FUCK! Get away from me!"
Suddenly, the magic staff was stopped abruptly and he tumbled onto the ground, rolling a few times before he hit a rock.
Opening his eyes, he saw his magic staff was wrapped around by the blade parts. "Shape-shifting weapon… not only that, it even has a soul of its own. Just who is your creator?"
The golem approached him and mercilessly stabbed his chest.
The atmosphere on the battlefield and in the war room became silent.
The lizardmen on the walls wore dark and worried expressions. Now that the Three Lizardmen Brothers were killed, who would protect them?
Shagatik widened his eyes in disbelief as he slowly stood up from his seat. "I have killed the Three Lizardmen Brother… My name will become legendary!"
Bartrem and Aldred's wives glanced at Shagatik with weird looks. It was obvious that Aldred's golem was the one who killed the Three Lizardmen Brother. Yet, this young lord dared to take credit.
Aldred nodded at them, signaling that it was okay. In fact, he was fine with being discredited for the kill. Killing not one but three of the most prominent figures would put a lot of bad attention on him. Especially from the Lizardfolk.
Should he cut off his deal with Shagatik, he could still make other deals with other lords in this nation.
So in his case, being discredited for the kill was actually a good thing.
Aldred conquered Solvevland County under Shagatik's name because he didn't want to have a bad reputation.
"What are you waiting for, Aldred? Take over the city for me." Shagatik pointed at Stella's mirror which showed the image of the city.
Aldred took a deep breath and opened his palms. "Send in the army."
Numerous portals opened in front of the city walls, and the golems began to flood in. Not only that, hundreds of hideous undead creatures appeared out of the shadows, and Xer Xai tunneled out of the ground and roared.
This scene made the lizardmen on the walls shiver.
"We cannot win against them. This is useless."
"No. We can still fight."
'Shut up! They have killed the Three Lizardmen brothers. What can ordinary Gold Rank like us do?"
The lizardman that tried to rile them up was astonished by that reply. He looked at the army in front of them and sighed. "Is there really no hope?"
The type 2 fighter golem walked towards the gate. Pointing its blade at the guards, it said: "Surrender and you will be spared."
The guards listening to that were glad and finally saw some hope. They quickly threw their weapons and opened the gate for the golem army to enter.
Immediately the golems entered a rigid formation and stomped the ground with every step. The ground shook with a bang, and each time the bang echoed, the hearts of the lizardmen thumped even harder.
After they entered the city, all the lizardmen looked at them with worry, not knowing what would happen to them from now on.
Suddenly, two golems lifted a flag of Haukjar County, Shagatik's flag.
Suddenly, Shagatik, Aldred, Bartrem, Mary, and the others appeared in front of the gate. The golems turned around and lifted their swords, welcoming them.
"Bow before your new lord and savior, Lord Shagatik Haukjar!"
Shagatik held his chin up and grinned.
