Hero of Darkness Chapter 423: The Apostle

Chapter 423: The Apostle

A command filled with a sense of supremacy landed on the ears of the Magic Swordsman and h.e.l.l Berserker generals who were mowing down thousands of rabid and fierce monster waves by themselves.

However, both of them knew the owner of this familiar voice.

50 kilometers inside the inner area of this region, the main door of the ma.s.sive wars.h.i.+p opened and the very next moment, a flying figure of a mage who had a grimoire in his left hand, a scepter in his right and wore gla.s.ses suddenly appeared in the air.

This mage donned in epic rank gears for magicians and a white and violet robe levitated in the air without a worry. And his fierce and ominous aura filled with extremely dense mana and world energy was exuding to the point where one would easily get plastered on the ground given the heavy pressure.

This general who had been out of action for nearly 4 months at this point let out a sinister smirk as he looked at the enemy forces gathered around the center of this region.

"Ha ha ha! How lucky of me to get here in time. Finally, I can test my new strength.

And this creature seems to be the perfect test subject." spoke the mage as he released his ghastly aura and flew towards the legendary rank monster commencing this attack.

It was none other than Ceril, the Dark Summoner general.

However, the aura he emitted was more than enough to give a hint at one thing. That now he was at the….

Legendary Rank!

As Ceril flew in the sky at an extremely fast pace without even needing any magic formation, spell or artifact of sorts… he quickly noticed that the ability to control so many monsters telepathically even from fifty kilometers away was extremely commendable.

Unbeknownst to Omega, Jugram and the two semi-saints who were fighting against the monster wave… the uncountable enemies they were fighting at the border of the Berawaa region… was not even half of the army of monsters this legendary rank creature had under its control.

While its attention was focused on the defending party, Ceril masked his aura completely to the point he became completely undetectable.

Soon, he entered the 5 kilometers vicinity of monster forces mostly composed of tree-like creatures. And in the center of their overly populated army, stood 100 meters tall and 30 meters wide creature that had two ma.s.sive hands and a hollow head with no eyes or even a mouth.

This creature did not have any legs and its entire body was covered under long and thick tree trunks. Ceril noticed over 20 ma.s.sive tall trees with thousands of branches coming out of its body from various places.

Hundreds of st.u.r.dy and dense roots at the bottom were plunged deep inside the ground to the extent that Ceril felt like it touched the core of the planet itself.

Instead of looking like a horrifying monster that would shake the core of any being who saw it…

This legendary rank creature looked rather like a gigantic tree planted in the middle of a dense forest.

"What a big houseplant." spoke Ceril in amazement.

"A wood elemental legendary rank creature. It's my first time seeing one." he said and tried to sense the density of world energy emitting from this ginormous creature.

"Hmm… at least level 223. The total number of creatures it has in its army seems to be above 10 million. Even the 50 kilometers of the forested region is filled with them like a nest of ants." he said as he looked towards the crowded forest that was being rummaged by the incalculable numbers and variety of species as well as tree monsters.

"It plans to wear off the soldiers and all fighters with its sheer numbers. At this rate, unless there's a saint, they won't even last for the next 10 hours. The numbers alone are tremendous and even someone like a semi-saint will get tired out to the point they can't continue fighting.

It really has advantages in numbers, a variety of strong underlings and terrain advantage.

You two are lucky that I came here in time as soon as I broke through to legendary rank." said Ceril as he transmitted the real situation to Omega and Rudra.

"Then make yourself useful, you numbskull!" replied Omega as cut off over 50 monsters in half with a single strike of his lightning flash skill.

He then used the Sword King skill and his hundred 5 meter long katanas made of different elemental auras swarmed and cut open more than two hundred monsters in a single go.

"Yeah, I'm busy here too. So if you want to act all mighty and prideful, go gloat somewhere else." said Jugram as he plunged his giantsword in the head of a 20 meter tall tree sentinel monster as he cut it off in two.

BANG!

The ma.s.sive body dropped on the ground but his figure instantly flickered and the next moment, he was high in the air in front of another monster.

Slas.h.!.+

With a single burning slash attack with his giantsword, he cut off another tree sentinel monster in half.

His black armored figure in the human form was still terrifying to enemy forces because of the chaotic and murderous aura he was emitting that scared every enemy monster within 2 kilometers radius.

Omega and Jugram were like a one man army and kept fighting like madmen while facing hundreds of opponents on their own.

Although they were comparable to peak grandmasters… the soldiers serving under their command felt like they were looking at bonafide semi-saints instead.

Ceril on the other end however felt his chest constricting after this sudden insult.

He wanted to flex his superiority after the new rank-up he achieved through months of hard work and tirelessly studying dark magic and creating undeads day and night for the past 4 months.

But all he received was an earful for trying to show off by the two fellow subordinates of his.

"Fine, fine… given the sheer numbers… it shall still make a good opponent.

A perfect match for me." he said and let out a content smile.

"Let's see what my new Ancient Rank job can help me achieve in a large-scale battle.

After all, I am now the…" said Ceril and fully released his deathly aura as he made his presence known to the legendary rank monster. He continued in a grim voice that echoed in the 1 kilometer radius…

"Apostle of Necromancy."
