Strongest Necromancer Of Heaven's Gate
chapter-610-2

"Kill that red-headed boy over there!" Great General Garret commanded the Rankers that were on the front lines. "He is the Necromancer that is summoning the Undead. Kill him first!"

The Great General's thunderous shout shook the battlefield, informing those who were near the Half-Elf to eliminate him as soon as possible.

"Looks like my cover is blown," Lux said with an amused smile.

Beside him stood his trusted comrades Pazuzu, Orion, ALL-MITE, and Revon. They were there to protect their Master from being targeted by the enemy.

It was not only his trusted subordinates that were there to shield him from harm. Baronar was also present because he had been entrusted by Lady Avyanna to ensure Lux's safety.

"Get ready!" Baronar growled as he summoned his Elite Spirit Warriors that numbered almost a thousand to act as their bodyguards. "They're coming."

More than twenty Rankers broke through the Orc's Ranks in order to reach the Half-Elf who was at the rear of their enemies.

Great General Garret wanted to personally eliminate the Necromancer, but he wasn't in the position to do that as the Commanding Officer of the army.

For the time being, he ordered his subordinates to also deal with the Magical Cannons, which had fallen into the hands of their enemies.

Now that the Human Army was being attacked from the front and the back, they had no choice but to divide their attention in order to cope with the unexpected changes on the battlefield.

Just as Great General Garret thought that all problems had been dealt with, he saw something from the corner of his eye that made the hairs on the back of his neck stand on end.

"Corpse Explosion!" Asmodeus shouted as he unleashed the devastating spell that had reaped countless lives on the battlefield.

A few days ago, he and Lux had buried countless dead bodies under the land where they assumed the Haca Dynasty would mount their siege against the Orc Capital City.

It was a gamble that they needed to try to gain the upper hand in the battle that would decide the fate of the Blackrock Clan.

Fortunately, the Army had positioned themselves just as they expected, allowing them to utilize the traps they had planted beforehand.

Truth be told, they were worried about Great General Garret's ability because according to the Blackrock Clan, the Great General had a knack for getting out of harm's way before it even started.

Because of this, they thought that their trap would be seen through. However, contrary to their expectations, the enemy even stood on top of them as if asking to be killed by Eiko's bombs, as well as Lux's Corpse Explosions.

Just like the rumble of countless fireworks, all of the corpses that were buried under the ground were detonated, sending bones and pieces of flesh flying in every direction.

The stench of death and destruction immediately spread across the battlefield, killing countless humans due to the stacking Necrotic Damage of the Corpse Explosion.

Asmodeus made sure to only detonate the corpses that were far away from the Orcs, to prevent them from getting entangled in the spell that couldn't differentiate friend from foe.

Just as the Great General thought that things couldn't get any worse, a Blood Golem towering twenty meters tall suddenly appeared on the battlefield.

It wasted no time in delivering the killing blow to the nearby soldiers, who were initially lucky to survive the effects of the Corpse Explosion Spell.

Unfortunately, the Blood Golem wasn't able to kill to its heart's content because it was split in half by the sword that the Great General wielded in his hands.

Great General Garett was an SS-Ranker, which was only slightly weaker than the previous Barca.

(A/N: Before Barca joined Heaven's Gate).

The Blood Golem had only reached the Deimos-Rank, so it was fairly easy for the Great General to eliminate the nearest threat before it could grow stronger.

'The Magical Cannons have been successfully reclaimed,' Great General Garret sighed as he glanced at the rear of their formation. 'I can't believe that the Head Engineer would betray us. Does he not fear the Dynasty's Wrath?'

The Great General couldn't understand why one of their people would go out of their way to sabotage their campaign and backstab them from behind.

He couldn't think of any reason why the Head Engineer would side with the Orcs, especially when they had the upper hand in the war.

With the threat at their rear taken care of, the Great General shifted his attention to the Orcs that were fighting fiercely at the front lines.

Due to how greatly they underestimated Barca and his subordinates, the High Rankers had no other choice but to ask the other High Rankers to reinforce them in battle.

This forced the High-Rankers to abandon their mission to kill the lower-ranked Orcs and wipe them out as soon as possible.

Although he wasn't too happy with how the war progressed at the start, everything was now being handled properly, allowing him to breathe a sigh of relief.

But as he gazed at his surroundings, he noticed that something was missing.

Something very important to their Army.

While the Great General was thinking about what that thing was, a loud shout reached his ears.

"Everyone, back away!"

Immediately, the Orcs who were fighting at the front lines retreated.

Barca, Oreg, and Tanabur also didn't hesitate to back away and return to where their army had gathered.

All three of them were covered with wounds, but these injuries slowly regenerated as they distanced themselves from the High-Rankers who had been assigned to contain them.

"Sh*t!" Ronan cursed out loud as he gazed at something that he never thought possible.

The other High-Rankers also gasped upon the sight of the Weapon of War that was now aimed in their direction.

"Erect the barrier on our right flank!" Great General Garret immediately ordered as the silhouette of a giant, Crystal Dragon appeared on the right side of their army.

He had noticed that something was missing from their army, but he didn't expect that the enemy had managed to snatch it while everyone was busy dealing with the mayhem around them.

Great General Garret sent a sidelong glance at the red-headed teenager who had just been stabbed by one of the Rankers that he had ordered to eliminate the greatest threat on the battlefield.

However, instead of being happy, a grim expression appeared on his face when the teenage boy suddenly turned to dust after getting stabbed in the chest.

"A Clone."

The Great General gritted his teeth before shifting his gaze at the fifty-meter-tall Crystal Dragon whose jaws were open wide in preparation to launch its signature breath attack.

The High-Rankers of the human army all cursed internally as a very familiar-looking giant magic circle, that would amplify any magical attack by several folds, materialized in front of the Crystal Dragon.

"Just how…" Great General Garret clenched his fists in frustration when he saw that one of their trump cards, The Destroyer, had fallen into their enemies' hands without their knowledge.

Lux, who was standing at the base of the magical artifact, roared as he unleashed the attack that would turn anything it hit into crystal statues, which was the Crystal Dragons' ultimate attack.

Since Lux was only an Initiate, the power of this Breath Attack only reached up to the full-powered strike of an E-Ranker.

However, The Destroyer increased the devastating power of this multiple times until it reached the realm of a Grand Spell.

No one among the high-ranking officers of the Haca Dynasty dreamed of having their own weapon turned against them.

They never thought about a way to counter it, so all they could do now was pray that they would survive this attack that could obliterate entire mountains.

"Crystal Dragon's Breath!"

The Crystal Dragon behind Lux unleashed a sparkling breath made up of countless crystals, which was amplified by the Magic Circle in front of it.

All the Mages, Clerics, and Defenders of the Haca Dynasty activated their defensive spells to their maximum limit, creating an almost impenetrable shield that would protect them from even the strongest of spells.

Unfortunately, a Grand Spell was different.

It was a spell that could only be blocked by a force that was equal to or stronger than it.

As soon as the Crystal Breath Attack and the barrier collided, the sound of countless crystals breaking spread across the battlefield.

A few seconds later, the barriers shattered allowing the Grand Spell to descend mercilessly upon the Human army, who didn't even have time to scream before they turned into crystal statues, whose beauty would remain for eternity.
