Strongest Necromancer Of Heaven's Gate
chapter-890-6

"She's really mad now, Lux," Gaap smirked. "Don't let her catch you, or she will wring you dry down there."

"That's a very scary thought, Master," Lux replied. "My little brother only belongs to my fiances."

"You Master and Disciple pair can still joke at this time!" Hana complained. "Who do you think is making sure that she doesn't catch either of you?!"

Among the members of Gaap's Covenant, it was Hana who specialized in formations as well as the one who served the role of Disruptor.

She could help teleport her allies as well as give them a boost in their overall performance with her powerful enchantments.

But right now, she was solely focused on teleporting the pair away from the Succubus Queen, whose speed and attack power were no laughing matter.

Hana was certain that if one of Queen Rhiannon's attacks really connected, her Master and Lux would definitely be seriously injured or, worse, killed on the spot.

Iris was currently under the protection of Eiko and Blackfire, so Lux didn't have to worry about her.

He had even given Eiko an explicit order to swallow Iris and run away with Blackfire if things really got messy, and right now, things were really starting to get messy.

The Dark Forest, which spanned for miles, was no longer the same forest as it was an hour ago.

It was now almost completely destroyed, and deep fissures could be seen in the land where trees used to stand tall and undisturbed for centuries.

Only Lux's and Gaap's Named Creatures and Covenant Members were still alive, and only a few dozen remained of his Undead Legion.

Due to this battle's high danger level, Lux didn't summon Bedivere or Garret to fight alongside him, knowing that both of them had families to take care of.

Also, he wasn't confident that he would be able to protect them in a battle of this magnitude, where one mistake could end their life in a heartbeat.

Only Zagan, ALL-MITE, Shax, King Leoric, and Draven were present from Lux's Covenant, who were also hard-pressed to evade the Succubus Queen's Wrath.

Just as Queen Rhiannon was about to chase Lux and Gaap, several colorful light rays once again flew in her direction.

She immediately turned into her Ethereal Form, allowing these attacks to pass harmlessly through her body.

Lilian had returned to the battlefield and she was angry as hell.

It had been a while since someone had managed to hurt her. The last time she suffered a similar fate was when she fought against the previous King of Agartha, which ended in a draw.

Now that her rage had been fueled, she returned to her original form, which towered ten meters tall.

Queen Rhiannon, who understood the Wicked Queen Slime's threat, changed her target and flew in her direction.

But just as the Succubus Queen was about to engage her enemy, she noticed something that made her face turn grim.

Inside the Wicked Queen Slime's body were nearly twenty Succubi who had left Passion Castle in order to help their Queen fight against the people that invaded their realm.

Unlike Lux and Gaap, Lilian didn't care about fighting fair and square. She was a Calamity-Ranked Monster who had fought against countless Monsters in the past, and she would do everything in her power to win.

It didn't matter what methods she used, whether it was moral or immoral, as long as she was able to grasp victory.

"You fiend!" Queen Rhiannon shouted. "Release my people!"

Lilian ignored the Succubus Queen's demand and unleashed an acid spray that could melt Adamantine.

Queen Rhiannon dodged to the side and circled around the Wicked Queen Slime, looking for a way to rescue her people.

"Your Majesty! Don't worry about us!" one of the Succubus inside the Wicked Queen Slime's body shouted through telepathy. "Just kill this monster!"

"That's right, Your Majesty! Kill it!"

"We don't want to drag you down, Your Majesty! Forget about us! Eliminate all of them without holding back!"

The Succubus Queen gritted her teeth in anger before drastically increasing her speed, allowing her to close the gap between her and the Wicked Queen Slime in the blink of an eye.

"Die!" Queen Rhiannon slashed furiously with the intention of cutting the Wicked Queen Slime in half, but she made sure to only target the place where none of the Succubi were being held captive.

But her attack didn't hit anything because Lilian split her body in half, evading Queen Rhiannon's attack completely.

"Die!" Lilian's hateful telepathic voice reached Queen Rhiannon's ear at the same time her two bodies unleashed an Acid Spray at point-blank range.

"""No! Your Majesty!"""

The captured Succubi cried out in shock and anger as their Queen was sprayed with the Wicked Queen Slime's Concentrated Acid, which Lilian always used against stronger opponents.

This attack would almost, always, melt her opponent's flesh and bones, allowing her to gain the upper hand.

The only downside of this strategy was that its effective range was short, extending only thirty meters.

Lilian had to fight her opponent at close quarters in order to bring them close enough for her to unleash the Concentrated Acid, which was one of her Trump Cards in battle.

Suddenly, two gigantic hands materialized in the air and enclosed the Succubus Queen between them.

The Wicked Queen Slime, who was already certain that her foe would suffer serious injuries from her attack, frowned after seeing this scene.

At first, she thought that the Gigantic Hands appeared in order to crush their enemy.

However, after taking a good look at what happened, instead of crushing their foe, the Gigantic Hands protected the Succubus Queen instead!

"What's the meaning of this Halfling?!" the Wicked Queen Slime's telepathic voice reached Gaap, making the latter narrow his eyes.

He wanted to ask Antero the same question—why did it choose to protect their enemy instead of ending the battle?

The Succubi were initially crying out due to anger and frustration because of their own weakness, causing their Queen to suffer terribly, but they were all shocked after understanding what had happened.

When the acidic mist disappeared from its surroundings, the two hands opened, revealing an unharmed Rhiannon, who was just as confused as everyone else.

Suddenly, a gigantic face appeared above the Succubus Queen and chuckled.

"Little Rhiannon is now a Demigod," Antero chuckled. "Very funny."

"L-Lord Antero?!" Queen Rhiannon, who now realized the reason why the Gigantic Hands looked familiar, finally connected the dots.

The Golem of Destruction, which disappeared from the Abyss over a hundred years ago, now appeared in front of her once again.

Antero laughed, and his laugh reverberated across the entire 13th Layer, making the land tremble as if a giant was walking across them.

"Good girl," Antero said as it used its finger to pat Queen Rhiannon's head. "Now, behave."

Everyone on the battlefield was dumbfounded by this sudden turn of events.

The Golem of Destruction had moved autonomously, regardless of Gaap's will.

Truth be told, even if Gaap were to temporarily unseal the limiter that prevented Antero from unleashing his full powers, the Golem didn't drain much of the Halfling's life force.

One of the reasons for this was due to the fact that Gaap was only using Antero's hands to fight against Queen Rhiannon.

The other reason was that, in the Abyss, Antero's power was magnified by several folds, allowing him to take nourishment from his surroundings.

In short, as long as Antero was in the Abyss, the Golem of Destruction would no longer need to drain Gaap's lifespan in order to materialize.

But the problem was the seal that bound him to the Halfling.

As long as he was bound to Gaap, Antero had no choice but to listen to his orders.

It was different now. The Golem of Destruction could move autonomously as long as he was in the Abyss, which gave the Halfling a bad premonition.

"Run!" Gaap shouted because he knew that Antero now had full control of his body, allowing him to resist the Halfling's orders.

Lilian, Piccoro, Eiko, Iris, and Blackfire, all moved towards the Halfling. Gaap didn't hesitate to take one of the White Marbles out of his storage ring in order to use it.

Just as Gaap was about to activate the White Marble, Queen Rhiannon snapped her fingers, and Cai appeared in front of them.

Seeing the person that he wanted to rescue, Lux's body subconsciously moved by itself and flew towards his fiance in an attempt to rescue her.

Antero watched this scene with a smirk on its face as its eyes glowed crimson.

The White Marble on Gaap's hand activated by itself, creating a black hole that sucked the Halfling, Eiko, Iris, Piccoro, and Lilian inside it.

The strong suction force was about to suck Lux and Cai as well, but Antero's Giant Hand caught both of them, preventing them from escaping.

When the Black Hole disappeared half a minute later, the Golem of Destruction placed the unconscious Half-Elf, and his fiance on the ground before looking at the Succubus Queen with a smile.

"Bye bye, Little Rhiannon," Antero chuckled. "Play nicely."

Although he could move autonomously in the Abyss, the fact still remained that he was bound to Gaap's body.

The moment the Halfling disappeared from the Abyss, his bond with Antero would pull the Golem of Destruction back to him, whether he liked it or not.

The Succubus Queen stood rooted on the spot because everything that had happened was like a blur to her.

When she finally regained her composure, she looked down at the two unconscious teenagers beside her feet.

"Although there were several mishaps along the way, I finally have you," Queen Rhiannon muttered. "The one that shares the other half of the Celestial Maiden Physique."

Queen Rhiannon was worried about her people who had been captured by the Wicked Queen Slime. However, she knew that since the Half-Elf had been left in the 13th Layer of the Abyss, they would have no choice but to come back and come to his rescue.

That would give her enough time to get what she wanted and make the Half-Elf pay for the things he did to her.
