Chapter 2425 Destruction
In the next moment, a dense barrage of bone spears exploded forward and pierced through!
Fang Heng was lunging forward when he suddenly saw a vast expanse of bone spears flying straight at him. His heart skipped a beat.
D*mn, that intense?!
Fang Heng tried to dodge.
However, the passage was simply too narrow, and such a dense array of bone spears made it impossible to evade. He had no choice but to retreat, sprinting backward and taking cover behind hispanion''s undead body to shield himself from the attack.
What a hassle!
Fang Heng thought to himself that the enemy was troublesome.
If it had been before, he would have used his secondary space projection skill to quickly close in on the enemy and unleash a rampage.
It was never this much of a hassle back then!
"Bang! Bang bang bang!!"
The bone spears pierced through arge number of undead ahead, clearing a passage that extended over thirty meters.
After the initial explosion, the faint blue energy enveloping the necromancy mage weakened noticeably.
Fang Heng seized the opportunity and quickly moved closer!
The three necromancy mages were rmed.
Here ites again!
This undead even possessed such high-tier intelligence? It knew how to use itspanions'' bodies as a barrier to defend against attacks.
"Bone spear!"
Having just used an area-of-effect skill to clear a section of undead, the necromancy mage gritted his teeth and, seeing another wave of undead closing in threw another bone spear forward!
With their power greatly suppressed in the death realm due to the effort required to maintain their willpower, their mental strength consumption increased exponentially. Even high-tier skills that seemed routine outside were practically unusable multiple times in quick session here.
"Bang!!!!"
Fang Heng swung his bone de to block again.
The "soft persimmon" was right in front of him!
"Bone barrier!"
The necromancy mage''s forehead immediately beaded with cold sweat as he mmed his hands onto the ground.
"Boom!!!"
A wall of bones suddenly rose from the ground, blocking Fang Heng''s path.
"Boom!!!"
Fang Heng shed forward with his bone de, causing the entire bone wall to explode into fragments.
The "soft persimmon" was within reach.
"Chi!!!"
The bone de descended.
The shadow barrier around the necromancy mage shattered with a bang, and a blood mark appeared on his neck.
Whoosh!
The necromancy mage turned into a zing inferno and vanished from sight.
[Hint: The yer team has repelled 1 invader; 39 more invaders need to be repelled toplete the mission.]
In the next moment, Fang Heng sensed a sudden surge of mental strength from the side. N?v(el)B\\jnn
Oh no!
Fang Heng''s heart skipped a beat.
Seeing hispanion fall, a necromancy mage unleashed a desperate close-range barrage of bone spears with thest of his mental strength.
"Chi! Chi chi chi!!!"
Fang Heng''s body was pierced through by more than ten bone spears at close range, making a series of dry sounds.
However, he could not feel any pain.
Fang Heng frowned and shed at a mage beside him.
In his final moments, the necromancy mage''s eyes showed a flicker of astonishment.
Why?
Why was this elite undead so resilient!?
"Bang!!!!"
Tan Shuo and Li Shaoqiang, leading their undead from the rear, broke through the undead squad''s defenses and helped Fang Heng deal with the remaining three necromancy mages.
[Hint: The yer team has repelled 1 invader; 35 more invaders need to be repelled toplete the mission.]
Finally, they had taken down five of the "soft persimmons" in one go.
Li Shaoqiang, having witnessed the difficulty of the mission, let out a sigh of relief and turned to Fang Heng, "Mr. Fang, are you alright?"
Fang Heng reached out and slowly pulled out the bone spear that had pierced into his body one by one.
It was likely that the possessed undead inherited the necromancy mage''s high health, which allowed it to withstand the bone spear attacks.
If it had been Li Shaoqiang, he would have been forced to respawn after such a hit.
"It''s nothing, just a bit too greedy..."
Fang Heng reflected on the situation, realizing that it had been a close call and he had taken a significant risk.
From now on, he needed to be more cautious.
"The invaders entering the mausoleum area are stronger than those we faced before, making them harder to deal with."
Tan Shuo added, "And this area is narrow and difficult to avoid attacks. Next time, we should avoid targeting teams of three or more."
Li Shaoqiang felt that the two of them were a little too careful.
In any case, he could still do it again after he died.
Compared to taking risks, efficiency was the most important consideration.
Since Fang Heng agreed with Tan Shuo''s assessment, he naturally fell silent.
"Alright, let''s go. Continue."
The two of them formted a new strategy and entered the passage once more, searching for more vulnerable invaders to eliminate.
...
Tower of Bones
Underground sealing hall
"Sir!"
As the Holy Realm adjudicator Orkney led a group of Purifiers into the hall, everyone present immediately knelt on one knee.
"Where is Fang Heng?"
Orkney nced around the room before focusing his attention on the sealing stone pir in the center of the Great Hall.
Purifier leader Karolina nodded and responded, "We arrived toote; Fang Heng has already entered the death knight space."
"Indeed..."
A hint of surprise appeared in Orkney''s eyes.
Such audacity?
"How long has he been inside?"
"Nearly an hour."
"That long..."
Orkney was even more surprised, his gaze fixed on the sealed space within the stone pir, his eyes growing colder as he spoke, "The death knight space..."
A Purifier, feeling uneasy, spoke up, "Sir, Fang Heng hasn''t shown any signs ofing out. If he remains hidden inside and the undead factionpletes their exploration of the death realm, they might soon send reinforcements to Punoze."
"Yes, that''s a valid concern."
Orkney grunted and stared at the broken seal in front of him.
Back then, the space left behind by the Holy Court was only sealed and not destroyed. The reason was very simple.
They were unable to achieve it.
After investing considerable time and elite effort, they could indeed temporarily destroy the space.
However, as long as the will of the death knight remained indestructible, the death knight would eventually be reborn over time, and the space would gradually re-condense.
Thus, destroying the space was ultimately pointless.
Sealing it temporarily was the best option.
Now, things were different.
With the disappearance of Empress Persephone, the death realm was far from what it used to be.
Moreover, Fang Heng was hiding within the death knight space.
"Let''s act. We need to destroy the death knight space together."
The Purifiers all paused briefly, then nodded in agreement, "Understood!"
...
In the death realm, as Fang Heng and hispanions spent more time in the Empress''s mausoleum, they gradually became aware of the increasing trouble.
They found that the number of isted enemies was rapidly dwindling.
Most of the lone necromancers had been devoured by other undead, leaving few opportunities for them to get kills.
To make matters worse, they still needed to eliminate three more toplete the mission!
Suddenly, Li Shaoqiang''s controlled undead burst out from around a corner, swinging its stiff arms, and called out, "Mr. Fang, there are three in that grave over there—good opportunity!"
Li Shaoqiang, growing anxious as he struggled to find a chance, immediately signaled Fang Heng and his team to gather.
"Let''s go!"
Hearing this, Fang Heng quickly headed toward the grave area.
