Ah Dai let out a soft sigh. Despite his high cultivation level, he was at a loss for a solution in the face of the recent event. Dealing with undead creatures proved to be nowhere near as effective as the large-scale attack from the Holy Magic of the church. It seemed that dealing with these undead creatures wasn’t so easy after all!
Yun Ying floated by Ah Dai’s side, still looking carefree and elegant. The previous attack did not seem to have drained much of his strength. He sighed lightly and said, "I did not expect these skeletons to be this tough. Ah Dai, are you alright?"
Ah Dai shook his head, saying, "Thank you, Elder, I’m fine."
Yun Ying smiled and said, "There is nothing to be thankful about. With your level of cultivation, you should also be able to deal with these skulls. You just haven’t thought of a method yet."
Ah Dai knew that he could handle these skulls by casting Heavenly Thunder Clash to completely destroy them. However, once he used Heavenly Thunder Clash, his allies would inevitably be affected, and that was something he didn’t want to see. He said to Yun Ying, "Elder Yun Ying, if the skeletons are already this tough, the zombies up ahead will likely be even more dangerous. How about this, could you wait here while I go and fetch the Light Priests from the backlines? With their support in Light Magic, dealing with them will be much easier."
Yun Ying nodded, saying, "Ah Dai, did you notice that once the source of these skeleton soldiers was destroyed, the evil aura that was once infused in every inch of this land has also disappeared?"
Ah Dai was taken aback. Due to his long-term use of the Sword of Hades, his sensitivity to evil aura was rather dull. After hearing what Yun Ying said, he checked carefully and found out that, indeed, the evil aura in the Death Mountain Range nearby had disappeared, completely disappeared. It made the place feel the same as the territory of the Tian Yuan Clan, except for the lack of vegetation. He expressed his joy, "So does this mean that we have completely wiped out the undead creatures? Without the support of the evil aura in the Death Mountain Range, these undead creatures should at least lose their ability to regenerate, right?"
Yun Ying smiled and said, "It’s not that simple. I think what you destroyed was only the source of evil of the outer two layers of the Death Mountain Range. The undead creatures further inside may still be difficult to deal with. We need to be extremely cautious and can’t afford any slip-ups. You go ahead and fetch the Pope and his men. We’ll rest here for a while before proceeding to eliminate the zombies, the twelfth catastrophe of the undead."
Ah Dai nodded and flew onto Sheng Xie’s back, taking the two giant dragons to where the church members grouped at the back. The Pope had also noticed the changes in their surroundings. After receiving confirmation from Ah Dai, he was immensely relieved, but the appearance of the Skeleton Emperor had also put everyone on high alert. To better destroy the enemy, Ah Dai led the two giant dragons back and forth several times to transport the Light Priests to the original territory of the skeletons. After everyone had rested, the Pope ordered them to head to the third checkpoint of the Death Mountain Range.
After crossing a few low hills, the green fog in the sky appeared in their sight. Below the hills were zombies covered in green mucus, their rotten flesh and disgusting fluid were nauseating. The Light Priests and fire mages led by Larthas lined up neatly, waiting for the Pope’s command. The Pope turned to Ah Dai and asked, "What do you think we should do with these zombies, Ah Dai? Haven’t you noticed that there’s no evil aura in this area of zombies? It seems that the source of evil you destroyed also included their energy source. Now that they don’t have the support of the evil aura, these zombies should be much easier to deal with."
Ah Dai nodded and said, "Grandpa, these zombies are too disgusting and incredibly toxic. How about we order all the magicians here to launch long-range attacks on them? After the zombies are destroyed, we’ll find a way to clear the green toxic fog in the sky. Compared to the skeletons, these zombies are much slower and less agile, but their defensive power and attack power are much higher. With so many powerful magicians here, we should not give them the chance to get close to us."
The Pope smiled and said, "Our thoughts align. We must be steady and prudent in the Death Mountain Range. Today, all we need to do is destroy these zombies. Now that the outskirts of Death Mountain Range no longer contain evil aura, we can move the main troops and supplies here after getting rid of these zombies. We can set up camp in the mountains and launch the next attack at the earliest time possible. Xuan Ye, Xuan Yue, lead all the Light Priests and prepare to cast the grand Divine Judgment. Mage Larthas, please lead all the fire mages and be ready to react at any moment. If any zombie breaks through and charges at us, I’ll count on you for defense."
Larthas said, "There’s no need to be polite, Your Holiness. We will do our best."
The Pope turned to Ah Dai and said, "You must have exerted quite a lot of energy in the fight against the skeletons. Take a break for now. The four of you Sword Saints don’t have to step in unless necessary."
