  Facing the wave of Skeletal Warriors, the expedition did not need to consider anything else at all. Their only option was to fight the Skeletal Warriors head-on.

  The Alchemy Colossuses of the Rotterdam Kingdom's team were in front. Normally, it would not take much energy for the Alchemy Colossuses to deal with Skeletal Warriors, as they would simply crush them with their feet, but that did not work here. Even though they crushed plenty of Skeletal Warriors and turned them into powder, most of the Skeletal Warriors managed to jump and climb up the large bodies of the Alchemy Colossuses thanks to their agility.

  Not long after the Alchemy Colossuses came in contact with the Skeletal Warriors, the large Alchemy Colossuses were covered with Skeletal Warriors crawling over them, making them turn into moving hills of Skeletal Warriors. Those with poor willpower might even throw up their dinner from the night before at this sight. Besides, after hanging off the Alchemy Colossuses, the Skeletal Warriors continuously slashed the Alchemy Colossuses' outer shells with their swords.

  "Damn it, are these still Skeletal Warriors? What was that Immortal King researching? How did he create such a perverted thing!?" No one could calm down at the sight before them, but when they turned around, they discovered that that door had long vanished.

  Chapter 959 - World Of Skeletons

  The main reason that the Skeletal Warriors would become cannon fodder of the Undead was that their movements were stiff and sluggish, and they had little to no offensive power. Even a farmer would be able to deal with a Skeletal Warrior alone as long as he could overcome his fear of Undead creatures. However, those Skeletal Warriors were behaving far more outstandingly than elite human soldiers. They were like psychopaths.

  Even the Skeletal Warriors, which were the cannon fodder of the Undead creatures, were incredibly outstanding. What would the Undead creatures that were superior to the Skeletal Warriors be like here!? At the thought of this question, everyone was dismayed.

  Although the team from the Brilliance Shrine was part of the expedition, and dealing with Undead creatures was their forte, even Archbishop Martin couldn't help but put on a sullen expression when he thought about the time when they were dealing with the Undead creatures summoned by the Double-Realm Psychic Towers.

  There was a massive army of endless Undead creatures that were all over the mountains and wilderness. There were definitely more numerous compared to the previous battle. Even if the Undead creatures did not resist, and allowed them to kill them, they probably would not even be able to finish killing all of them, not to mention that they were extremely powerful.

  "Master Felic, what should we do next!?" Archbishop Martin asked Lin Li with an anxious face. Looking at the current situation, he knew that it was definitely worse than before. However, they could at least get by by destroying the Double-Realm Psychic Towers before, and there were no Double-Realm Psychic Towers for them to destroy here. Did they really have to annihilate all the Undead creatures?

  "President Felic, didn't you use a magical weapon to kill the peak-Legendary-level High Elf in a moment previously? I don't know if it's still usable, but I believe that with that magical weapon, it shouldn't be too difficult to kill these Undead creatures even if we have to wipe all of them out." Donald seemed to be raising an idea, but in reality, he was trying to see through Lin Li. He wanted to know if that magical weapon could still be used, or what the consequence of using it was.

  However, Lin Li did not answer Donald's question. He simply looked at him before saying to everyone, "No matter what we'll do next, get the team moving first. We can't stay trapped here. Otherwise, the number of Undead creatures will increase, and then the team will become unable to move an inch at all. Even if we can come up with a solution, we won't be able to put it to use if that happens."

  "Use all the items that you can now. Even if we leave, where can we go? What if we get further and further away when the time comes?" Kanber was clearly displeased about the fact that Lin Li did not answer Donald's question. However, he also knew that he could not make it too obvious.

  However, Lin Li did not bother with Kanber's complaints at all. Instead, he turned to look at Archbishop Martin. It would not be an exaggeration to say that Archbishop Martin had already started following Lin Li's instructions. After all, Lin Li was the Son of The Holy Light who could cast the Judgment Day spell. In terms of status, he was superior to Archbishop Martin.

  Hence, as soon as he saw Lin Li looking over, Archbishop Martin immediately understood, and did not question Lin Li's decision anymore. He turned to look at the Brilliance Shrine's team and gave them instructions.

  Donald did not understand anything about the Son of The Holy Light. Hence, he was incredibly astonished to see that Archbishop Martin had agreed so readily. He frantically asked, "Archbishop Martin, are you agreeing to his arrangements without asking any further questions?"

  Although the people of the Rotterdam Kingdom were extremely narcissistic, and looked down on people and forces outside the Rotterdam Kingdom, Donald knew that the Brilliance Shrine was one of the top forces of the world. As one of the four archbishops of the Brilliance Shrine, Archbishop Martin was second only to Pope Rosario, and was a respected figure. How could he comply and follow the instructions of the leader of a small force?

  "Master Donald, think about it. So far, has Master Felic made any wrong decisions? Don't go on further. If you're willing, just follow Master Felic's instructions." Archbishop Martin did not explain any further, and simply expressed his trust in Lin Li.

  After hearing Archbishop Martin's words, Donald was left with no other choice. Archbishop Martin's attitude made it clear that Donald could choose to either go along with it or part ways with them. Under such circ.u.mstances, no matter what trump cards the Tower of Dusk might have, leaving the team of the Brilliance Shrine which was the best at dealing with Undead creatures meant that they would probably be drowned by the Undead creatures in no time.

  Hence, the Alchemy Colossuses of the Rotterdam Kingdom stayed in front, while the Holy Light Knights of the Brilliance Shrine protected the team on the flanks. The mages of the Tower of Dusk conducted a remote wipeout, while the Death Knights guarded the back. The expedition was like a boat in a thunderstorm, struggling to trudge forward amidst the tide of Undead creatures.

  However, just like what they were worried about, fireballs emerged from the depths of the army of Undead creatures when the team was slowly advancing, blasting at the army of Undead creatures. Although the fireballs were not extremely powerful, and could not cause substantial damage to the expedition, all their enemies were Undead creatures. Even if there were Undead creatures that could cast magic, they should be casting Necromagic spells. How could elemental magic appear!?

  However, they soon discovered that there were not only fireballs, but also Wind Blades, Ice Spears, and Ground Spikes. Although they were all beginner-level magic spells, they were associated with the Undead creatures there, which gave them chills. The Undead creatures actually knew how to cast Elemental magic spells. Could that be a result of the Immortal King's research? In that case, how sick would the higher-level Undead creatures there be!?

  After killing batch after batch of Skeletal Warriors, the expedition finally saw the Undead creatures that could cast beginner-level elemental magic spells. They were a group of Hell Ghouls that varied in color. Like the Skeletal Warriors, the Hell Ghouls were also cannon fodder among Undead creatures. However, they often ranked
above the Skeletal Warriors because they were ranged attackers.

  The ability of the average Hell Ghoul was initially just casting Hellfire Bombs. That was also a type of beginner-level Necromagic spell. However, those colorful Hell Ghouls were casting all sorts of beginner-level elemental magic spells.

  Upon seeing that, the people in the expedition couldn't help but think, The Hell Ghouls are already casting all sorts of beginner-level elemental magic spells. Will the Skeletal Mages cast mid- to high-level elemental magic?

  It was soon proven that they had made the correct guess, even though it was not a good thing for them. The fact that the Undead creatures could cast elemental magic spells meant that Holy Light Magic no longer had the additional effect that it originally had in terms of defense like when facing Necromagic. Initially, Holy Light Magic would at least have a restraining effect on the Undead creatures because of its purifying effect. However, not only did they lose their original advantage, they in turn had to be restrained by the Undead creatures.

  In the Magic System of Anril, there was a rather crude law that Holy Light Magic would restrain Necromagic, which restrained Elemental Magic, yet Elemental Magic restrained Holy Light Magic. Of course, the restraint was affected by many other factors, and it was not necessarily absolutely accurate. However, according to the verification of many magic scholars, the law was true even though it was not that obvious at times.

  However, the expedition was now facing a massive number of Undead creatures that could almost be considered endless. The Elemental Magic cast by tens of thousands of Undead creatures would definitely pose a threat to the expedition even if they were only low-level elemental magic spells, which could not be ignored.

  The only thing to be thankful for might be that the damage that the Holy Light Magic caused to the Undead creatures did not seem to be reduced because of the elemental magic. Hence, facing such a situation, the expedition quickly changed their tactic. A portion of the mages joined the defense, and the priests became the main ranged attackers.

  The tactical change had worked a little, but the Undead creatures that the expedition was facing were simply too numerous. They could not kill all of them at all. Under the siege of the army of Undead creatures, the expedition couldn't but slow down in their advance. They went from taking a step every minute to taking a step every 10 minutes.

  "These Undead creatures can't be killed at all. How much longer are we going to keep killing them!?" The people from the Rotterdam Kingdom's team panicked. After all, the Alchemy Colossuses were in front.

  Although the Alchemy Colossuses' defense meant they would not be destroyed by the Undead creatures that quickly, they consumed a huge amount of power with each step that they took forward, as if they were pushing a mountain. It had been half an hour since they entered this world, but they only managed to cover a short distance. However, the Alchemy Colossuses required swapping their power magical crystals.

  The Alchemy Colossuses were massive constructs that seemed oppressive and had powerful defensive and offensive power. However, if they did not have any energy, they would just be piles of scrap metal. Fortunately, during their previous exploration, the team from the Rotterdam Kingdom had also gotten plenty of magical crystals. Otherwise, their Alchemy Colossuses would have all been crippled in the previous world.

  However, even with the large number of magical crystals that they had obtained, there would still be a time when they ran out of them, especially now that they could not see the possibility of getting out of this predicament. No one knew how long they would have to fight in this world with the infinite army of Undead creatures. Even if they possessed more magical crystals, they would have to use them sparingly. After all, they knew that their value lay in the Alchemy Colossuses. If they did not have the Alchemy Colossuses, the other two teams would immediately abandon them.

  Chapter 960 - Sea Of Undead Creatures

  "Master Felic, we really can't go on like this," Archbishop Martin said worriedly when he walked to Lin Li's side. After all, the cooperation between the Tower of Dusk and the Rotterdam Kingdom happened because of him. Hence, now that the two forces were clearly not going to deal with it, he could only be the bridge of the communication now.

  Lin Li still respected Archbishop Martin quite a lot. Hence, after hearing the question, he pointed at the front of the team. He said, "Archbishop Martin, do you see that place shrouded in a shadow? According to the movement direction of the Undead creatures, it's likely that that might be the source of the Undead creatures. Since this world is the Immortal King's Undead laboratory, that place might be the key to how we get out of here."

  "What!? Go to the source of the Undead creatures? Don't you think there're enough Undead creatures already!?" Before Archbishop Martin could say anything, Kanber from the Rotterdam Kingdom had already begun yelling.

  Indeed, according to the thought process of ordinary people, one would naturally have to leave towards the periphery of the Undead creatures in order to break free from the siege of the Undead creatures. If they were to head towards the source of the Undead creatures, it would be the same as sending themselves to the lion's den. They would only end up sinking further and further into the army of Undead creatures.

  However, as Lin Li said, that was the place where the Immortal King would experiment with Necromagic. Besides, it was very likely that the Undead creatures had been created by the Immortal King. Hence, the same place where the Immortal King would experiment with Necromagic should be the origin of the Undead creatures. That was the only place where they could find the information left behind by the Immortal King, which would most likely contain some tips for leaving this world.

  Archbishop Martin did not have any doubts at all about Lin Li's decision, just like before. Regardless of how reluctant the people of the Rotterdam Kingdom were, they could not leave on their own anyway. They could only accompany the rest obediently as if they had been kidnapped and held captive on a boat.

  In reality, although Donald and Kanber were displeased, feeling like they had been kidnapped, they carefully thought about Lin Li's opinion, and knew that that was indeed the only way out for the expedition given the current situation. After all, staying put at the same spot and preserving the status quo might seem safer, but they would have no hope of leaving this place. Was it really possible to kill all the endless Undead creatures?

  Hence, Kanber and Donald were not really bent on opposing. Anyway, they were all now tied to the same rope with the rest. If they were going to die, they would die together. However, due to their arrogance, the people of the Rotterdam Kingdom were not willing to follow the commands of an unknown, insignificant figure.

  Fortunately, Archbishop Martin was acting as a middleman. He was advanced in age, and could be considered old and cunning. He managed to give the people of the Rotterdam Kingdom an out without causing more tension.

  The expedition was painstakingly advancing towards the source of the Undead creatures like a small boat that was traveling against the tide. Not only were they extremely slow, they also looked like they were about to be overturned by a wave at any moment. The expedition consisted of the elites of the three forces which dominated Anril. However, the ones who brought them trouble were just Skeletal Warriors, Skeletal Mages, and other low-level Undead creatures.

  There was one thing about the strange and unusual Undead creatures that was the same as what everyone remembered, and that was that they were unafraid of death. They did not know what death was at all. However, that was not a good thing for the expedition. Being fearless of death, coupled with their flexibility and various special abilities, meant the resistance that the Undead creatures mounted against the expedition was truly incomparable to wha
t the Undead creatures summoned by the Double-Realm Psychic Towers had amounted to.

  The members of the expedition could totally imagine how the Undead creatures would sweep across Anril tyrannically, and cause it to sink into infinite darkness. At the thought of it, everyone in the expedition couldn't help but shiver. They also couldn't help but have a doubt in mind. What did the Immortal King create so many Undead creatures for? Did he plan to attack Anril?

  After all, legend had it that the Immortal King merely disappeared, and there was no evidence to prove his downfall. People had even associated the God of Mages Geresco's departure with the Immortal King. They said that Geresco had probably left Anril to hunt down the Immortal King in the endless chaos of time and space.

  There were remnants of the High Elves in that world, which the High Elves claimed was their last refuge, as well as the Immortal King's proud disciple Osric. There was a massive army of Undead creatures in that world that was enough to dominate Anril. If those two matters were linked together, they definitely had to worry about just what the Immortal King was thinking!

  Of course, the expedition was not worried for long. After all, their survival was uncertain. What they should really consider now was how they should preserve their lives.

  Although their capability was one of the reasons that the expedition could survive until now, the most important reason was that there was a smaller surface area of contact between them and the army of Undead creatures. No matter how many Undead creatures there were, they would not be able to attack the expedition at the same time. They would only be in touch with the area surrounding the team. Besides, the Skeletal Mages that were attacking from afar were still using low-level magic spells, after all. They could not really pose a threat to the expedition.

  However, as the expedition advanced towards the source of the Undead creatures, they would have to face the reality, which they could not escape.
