Xiao Yianua did not anticipate this outcome.
If so, their strength, even if not of the peak lords, must surely place them among the upper echelon of the top tier.
Xiao Yinua was somewhat apprehensive about whether a king- level necromancer could handle the situation, but she quickly recognized her folly.
The ground was strewn with thousands of orc corpses.
How could they possibly lose? Initially, Xiao Yinua contemplated capturing the enemy for interrogation.
However, upon witnessing the two warriors troops, her perspective shifted.
The dark elemental beings would undoubtedly prove advantageous to Bayou.
Xiao Yinshi resolved to attempt to win them over.
If persuasion failed, she would resort to direct elimination.
She would personally engage with the castle's crystal, wagering on the affiliated barracks.
As for the light elementals, they were sworn adversaries, and without a second thought, Xiao Yianua felt they should be eradicated.
Yet, considering the alliance between the two below, she realized it was prudent to consult by you first.
Xiao Yianua felt fortunate to have come in person, though she was also perplexed.
It was indeed strange why beings of light and dark elements would unite in alliance.
Chapter 225.
siblings.
As the orcs were nearly annihilated, the siblings summoned every ounce of their focus, dedicating themselves entirely to the battle.
Completely unaware of Xiao Yianua hovering high above.
Suddenly, Chun stumbled and collapsed her knees.
With lightning reflexes, Chunfong intercepted a lethal strike meant for her, repelling the elite or commander before them.
"Are you all right?" Chunfong asked, his eyes scanning their surroundings without turning to look at her.
Brother, I Chun Schwear replied, her voice tinged with embarrassment.
Understanding immediately, Chanfong swept her into his arms and retreated swiftly into the castle behind them.
Without a word, he gently set her down, draping his coat over her shoulders.
"Take care of yourself," he murmured before charging back into the fray.
Yet, before Chin Fong and their forces could finish off the remaining orcs, chaos erupted a new.
Another far more formidable orc battalion arrived, launching a ruthless assault without hesitation.
They slaughtered indiscriminately, whether the surviving orcs or the siblings own troops, leaving none alive.
Chunfangs expression darkened, his heart sinking into despair.
This New Orc legion was not only more elite, but vastly outnumbered them.
Even at their peak, victory would have been uncertain.
Soon, the original orc forces were utterly annihilated.
Chunfong, battered and forced into retreat, found himself cornered near the town's borders.
The town's defensive towers, sensing the encroaching threat, activated autonomously.
Hearing the commotion, Chonu emerged to assess the situation, only to be met with a sight that crushed her spirit.
Countless orc warriors stormed toward the town in a relentless tide.
To counter the charge, both the Light Phoenix and the Dark Serpent abandoned their aerial advantage, descending to the ground to engage the orcs headon, desperately stalling their advance.
Already exhausted, Chunfong sustained further injuries in the desperate struggle.
Ignoring her own condition, Chun rushed forward to fight alongside him.
"Brother, I don't think we can hold out this time," she whispered.
"Don't speak foolishly.
Never surrender until the very last moment," he countered.
Though both had ascended to level eight commander status, their foes included a pseudo king-class leader and two level 9 commander guards.
An insurmountable mismatch.
Hello, I believe you two might need a little assistance.
Xiao Yinue's voice cut through the chaos as she descended near Chunfong s castle.
Her arrival unnoticed until she spoke.
Startled, the siblings turned to find two figures and a griffin standing behind them.
Their attire alone marked them as fellow lords.
Yet Xiaoinu s offer was merely rhetorical.
Even as she spoke, her necromancer had already acted.
Experience points were far too precious to waste.
The bone domain activated instantly, impaling and obliterating the orcs before foam and shinu in mere moments.
Stunned, the siblings realized the necromancer was merely a unit, not the lord herself.
Among the orc horde, their pseudo king leader, well-versed in the workings of domains, recognized the threat immediately.
Upon witnessing the opponent's royal status, rather than retreating in fear, he allied with his two loyal guards to launch an assault against the necromancer.
They exhibited no trepidation despite the royal ranking of their adversary.
The primary distinction between a royal and a commander lies in the realm of influence.
Although the orc chieftain possessed royal strength in various aspects, the absence of a domain precluded it from being deemed a true royal, rendering it merely a pseudo royal.
The disparity of realms cannot be compensated by mere attributes.
The necromancer is certainly not Miles.
The endless tide of bones effortlessly pierced through the two level 9 commander orc guards, ens snaring the orc chieftain firmly.
Observing that their opponent was solitary, the remaining orc warriors abandoned their assault on Chunfong, Chinua, and their troops.
Instead, converging in mass upon the necromancer.
In their eyes, the necromancer appeared as a frail wizard wielding a staff.
Even though it was royal, they believed that if they closed in, it would perish.
Alas, Hapuni Province was devoid of the undead, and this band of orcs remained oblivious to the true nature of necromancy, rendering their attempts to vanquish the necromancer feudal.
Chunfong and Chinua were momentarily stunned.
A royal troop was undoubtedly a top tier lord, far too formidable, capable of single-handedly battling thousands of orc warriors.
As the number of fallen Orc commanders increased, Xiao Yianua's anxiety began to dissipate.
Her grip on the griffin's reigns grew clammy, fearing that the necromancer might falter and necessitate an escape into the skies.
Though the necromancer harbored no fear of death, the brief interval required for its revival was ample time for the orcs to claim her life.
Ultimately, she underestimated the necromancer while overestimating the orc horde.
The corpses on the ground began to tremble with an everinccreasing number of undead rising from their resting places.
as 3,000 corpses were summoned in one instance.
Over 6,000 undead emerged, albeit slowly due to the simultaneous requirement of battle.
In the blink of an eye, the undead outnumbered the orcs and commenced a chaotic melee.
Initially, the orcs regarded the dimminionive skeletons with disdain, but they soon discovered the uncanny nature of the undead.
They were virtually indestructible.
skeletons, zombies, death knights, wraiths, ghouls, gargoyles, various undead began their slaughter of the surrounding orc warriors.
Green blood drenched the earth, and the number of undead continued to swell, instilling fear for the first time upon the once fearless orc warriors.
The growth potential of the necromancer was limited to the emperor level.
Although it could summon double the undead, this came with its own drawbacks as it could not summon entities exceeding its own level cap.
Consequently, higher tier undead such as liches, bone dragons, and destroyers remained beyond its reach.
The necromancer's skeletal domain enveloped the battlefield, ceasing its offensive and taking to the skies to prevent any escaping foes.
Meanwhile, Xiao Lianua was flanked by the undead guardians summoned by the two level 9 or commanders, standing vigilant against the two lords.
This was the undead.
If the two had failed to discern the nature of the necromancer's troop prior, the unmistakable features of the summoned skeletons left no room for doubt.
Shunfangs astonishment deepened.
As far as he knew, the undead lord was meant to reside in Marshall province.
How could they possibly manifest in Hapuni province? Chun Shuer gazed sorrowfully in the direction of Xiaoli and Shua to say nothing of this royal level necromancer.
Even the over 10,000 undead summoned from the orc corpses were beyond their capacity to contend with.
The formidable power of the undead shattered their understanding.
With a mere flick of the wrist, a royal level entity could summon a thousand unyielding and immortal beings.
What a terrifying breed of soldiers this was.
Shunfong realized they had no alternatives.
Regardless of the circumstances, it was this entity that had rescued the two siblings.
To this lord of the undead, "We are profoundly grateful for your assistance.
" He expressed earnestly.
Chunua immediately grasped the sentiment and stepped forward, adding, "Thank you, elder sister, for saving us.
