Chapter 303: Birth of a Legendary Undead, the Terror of Stargazer Far-Sight
In the Hills, besides his title of "Valiant King," Basai also had another: "King of Destruction."
The various demi-human races had bestowed this title upon him in praise of his combat style, which focused on destroying an enemy's weapons, claws, fangs, and horns.
He stared at the black tower shield, which hadn't sustained the slightest damage from his full-power attack.
"Hmph!"
Basai's expression soured. He quickly moved away, intending to find a new angle from which to continue his assault.
However!
The Alliance Leader's magic was faster.
"Crumbling Bone Prison."
*Crack—crack!*
A magic circle appeared on the ground beneath Basai's feet, and dozens of bone spikes shot out in an instant.
*Bzzmm—*
A translucent light membrane emanated from the green magic armor Basai wore, blocking the impact of the bone spikes.
"Magic like this can't hurt me!"
"I don't know what kind of armor this is, but once a magic caster like you is within my close-combat range, even if you can block the first time, can you block the second?"
Basai seized the moment the light membrane was holding back the bone spikes to try and leave the spell's range, only to find his legs wouldn't move. He quickly looked down.
He saw that his legs were caught fast by bones that had erupted from the ground.
"Bastard!" Basai's face changed drastically. While raising his shield in front of him, he activated a Martial Skill to try and break free.
"Unhesitating Assault!"
An astonishing power erupted from his body, and fine cracks began to appear on the bone spikes pinning his legs.
Just then, the Alliance Leader slowly walked out from behind the black tower shield.
"Are you surprised?"
"Never mind an attack of your level; this shield can block even powerful sixth-tier magic."
The Alliance Leader spoke in a magnetic voice that sounded like grinding bone fragments, the black mist around his body quivering, revealing his heightened emotions.
"This is an item I found in a ruin, a possession of a legendary undead. It's a pity there's only one."
"This arrogant human."
"He can't possibly think he's safe just because my movement is restricted, can he?"
Seeing the Alliance Leader emerge from behind the sturdy black tower shield, Basai's eyes lit up. He reversed his grip on his one-handed heavy sword, searching for an opportunity to strike.
"Common sense dictates that an individual cannot triumph over a group."
The Alliance Leader seemed not to notice Basai's subtle movements, continuing to speak to himself as his voice suddenly grew louder.
"Wrong!"
"That's merely because the individual's power is too weak!"
Having said that, the Alliance Leader abruptly looked at Basai, his magnetic, bone-grinding voice tinged with a strange, joyful tone. "I'll give you this legendary piece of magic armor. How about it?"
Basai froze.
"No, no."
"This piece of magic armor is already yours. It's merely returning to its rightful owner."
The Alliance Leader suddenly chuckled.
*Boom!*
Basai completely shattered the restraints of the bone spikes. He leaped high into the air, bringing his one-handed heavy sword down on the Alliance Leader. "You lunatic, die!"
"Teleportation!"
The Alliance Leader's figure flickered and vanished into thin air.
Basai's attack missed again. He hurriedly scanned his surroundings but couldn't find the Alliance Leader. Realizing what had happened, he looked up at the sky.
The Alliance Leader, who had just disappeared, had already reappeared high above the center of the battlefield.
"Flight!"
The Alliance Leader cast another spell, allowing himself to hover in the air. He gazed down at the thousands of low-tier undead who had been all but wiped out and murmured, "The final step is complete!"
"Let me witness your form—Legendary Undead!"
The Alliance Leader raised his hands high, pushing all the magic power in his body to surge out madly as he chanted in a booming voice:
"Modified Sixth Tier: Create Undead!"
*Thump!*
The black tower shield, placed in the center of the battlefield, vibrated on its own. A thick, black, negative energy burst forth from within the shield.
In an instant, it all flooded into Basai, who was closest to the black tower shield.
"What... is this... bastard..."
"Ah, ah, ahhh!"
Basai had no time to dodge. He felt the corrosion of negative energy washing over his entire body and couldn't help but let out a pained, agonized roar.
At the same time!
All the negative energy, death aura, and the faint blood mist on the entire battlefield began to converge into the black tower shield. Then, converted by the tower shield, it was all injected into Basai.
This terrifying scene instantly stunned all the demi-humans on the battlefield.
The wails of agony brought the demi-humans back to their senses. The warriors of the goat-folk tribe, in particular, desperately charged toward Basai's position.
But as soon as these demi-humans got close, the dense negative energy in the area corroded them, instantly turning dozens of goat-folk to white bones. This terrified the demi-humans outside the area, forcing them to retreat continuously.
The negative energy and death aura grew ever denser!
Basai's cries grew weaker and weaker, eventually ceasing altogether as his entire body was enveloped by a thick, black energy.
A suppressive aura spread out!
A faint roar could be heard coming from within the black energy.
"He withstood it! He withstood it!"
The Alliance Leader's entire body exuded a sense of weakness. His withered, skin-and-bones hands were aimed at Basai below as he continuously controlled the flow of energy for the entire ritual and the infusion of magic power.
"As expected of a powerful individual among demi-humans who has stepped into the 'Heroic Realm.' If it were a human, he would have long since been unable to withstand the corrosion of this death aura and negative energy."
"Unfortunately, I only have one piece of magic equipment left behind by a legendary undead!"
A thought of regret flashed through the Alliance Leader's mind, but it was immediately replaced by excitement. He could already feel the impending birth of the legendary undead below.
*RUMBLE!*
The dense, black negative energy swelled like a heart, then suddenly contracted rapidly.
A rotting arm covered in a black iron gauntlet was the first thing to emerge from the black mist. It snatched the heavy, two-meter-tall black tower shield from the ground and lifted it.
With this simple action, the heart of every demi-human watching this scene couldn't help but skip a beat.
Then, an indescribable chill ran up their spines.
The entire Hills area was dry and arid, and the scorching sun was high in the sky, but at this moment, the demi-humans felt an inexplicable chill.
*Clank!*
A sound like scraping armor was heard.
The dense black energy enveloping Basai completely dissipated at that moment!
What stood there was a knight clad in black full-body armor and a tattered black cloak. His body wasn't towering, but he was still over two meters tall. His armor was inscribed with deep crimson patterns resembling blood vessels.
From the joints of the armor protruded thick, black spikes that glinted coldly. His helmet was adorned with demon horns, and his face was exposed.
It was a completely rotten face, its shape somewhat resembling Basai's. Within its hollow eye sockets, crimson lights of hatred glowed.
It was an intense loathing and resentment for all living beings!
Every demi-human who met this red gaze felt a surge of spine-chilling fear!
