CONQEROR - Chapter 117 - 117

Chapter 117 – 117

"Dammit!! These undeads are really hard to kill, our weapons just bounce on their hard bones." A Tier 2 adventurer said with a gloomy face. If not for him having fire-type skills, it would take him a long time to kill a low-level undead. Even a Tier 1 undead needs some time for him to kill it as a Tier 2. Much more than the other adventurers, after all, Tier 2 is relatively rare in this area.

Most of the adventurers and soldiers stationed in this small stronghold were Tier 1, with only one Tier 3 overseeing the situation.

"That's right, the undeads we have fought before, would pale in comparison with these undeads, Captain." His Tier 2 companion said while swinging his sword, breaking a Tier 1 rat-like undead that he fought for like a minute already. However, he didn't rejoice that he killed it. But looking at the undead that reconstructing again, which filled them with dread.

"Odessa!!" The captain shouted at his companion.

With a tacit understanding, the Tier 1 mage girl, chanted an incantation and waved his staff. In the next moment, a fireball comes out of his staff, which burned the undead killing it completely.

"These undeads are really weird captain. Apart from they are hard to kill, they are also resurrecting." Odessa said with fear in her eyes.

The undeads that they fought before were not this strong, although they have some immunity to weapons, they're not this perverted.

Their adventurer team comes from the neighboring town, having two Tier 2 and a Tier 1 mage they were relatively famous among adventurers in this area. So they come here for… Of course, apart from, getting invited by the lord, they also wanted to see if they can get some items after the lich was killed. After all, this is a lich we're talking about. Any lich was an ancient one, naturally, they amassed a lot of items because of their long life span.

Furthermore, the church was already involved, the church was a top force in this land. So they were pretty confident that the lich will die, but now they can't help but have some doubts. They underestimated this lich.

"We underestimated this lich, we might be in big trouble this time. But no need to fear, we have the church on our side. As far as I know, they are going to dispatch a Tier 4 priest. Also, we can't back off now, we already accepted the mission. Now, go back to fighting!"

"Roger!!"

"Yes, Captain!"

The two said, regaining some confidence. Having the church on their side was a huge relief for them. Since the church was dispatching a Tier 4 Priest, that means this lich can't be a Tier 5 being. Because the church has some means to know the level of Lich they are going to eradicate, as long as it won't exceed Tier 5.

The whole place was full of fighting and screaming, there was someone who was getting mauled by beast undead. Anyone wants to help but they can't since they were also fighting for their lives.

This night the undeads were more aggressive than the last attack. And their number is a lot more than the last. At first, they were only 100-200 undeads assaulting the stronghold every now and then. But tonight there were at least a thousand of them.

That's a lot, considering there were only 300 plus strongmen in the stronghold defending it… Suddenly…

"Screech!!!"

A sharp cry reverberated on the battlefield, making the battle stagnant, as though someone cast a time-stop spell.

Looking up everyone saw a huge skeleton bird carrying a person on its talon. Surprisingly it can fly without flesh on its wings. The skeleton bird dropped the person it was carrying and the person landed in the middle of the battlefield. As for the skeleton bird, it flies away from the battlefield, surprisingly it didn't join.

A person then walked out of the stronghold, looking at the newcomer with sorrowful eyes.

"My Friend, Nedes…."
