Necromancer Supreme System - Chapter 98

“We won’t disappoint you,” Salsola said, in the name of others, replying to her.

“Great, now Ela has something to share with you guys, another card we can use tomorrow,” Oya then turned to glance at Ela, who took out a small item from her inventory.

The moment this item appeared, everyone sucked a cold breath of air; it was a flying balloon, a great balloon that had dozens of towers and many cannons.

“Is it the flying warring balloon?” Dante asked, with disbelief in his tone.

“Sure, it is, and it’s one of the finest grades as well,” she nodded, “I had bought this with half of my wealth during an auction at the universal city here,” she explained, with much pride in her tone.

“Universal city?” Salsola asked, and Oya relayed well with her surprise and doubt, as she herself felt the same when Ela first told her about this balloon story.

“Sure, in each game world there lies a huge city that can be accessed by all players in any domain. It has no loyalty to any domain, acting as the current headquarter and capital of this game world. there is a great auction house, with many valuable treasures, and many arrogant and rich NPCs.”

Ela’s words made everyone’s eyes widened from shock! “Can we go there?” Mila asked. “Sure, but I have only five tokens under my disposal,” Ela replied, while adding, “it’s not easy to get a token from such a city, and the journey there would require much money to get great gains from it. I mean no offense, but currently you aren’t suited to go there,” she added, while advising them about their own thoughts.

“That’s a regret,” Avada muttered, as Oya had the same regret when she heard Ela’s advice. However, when Oya asked her about the value of legendary materials, and extremely rare material like Jognak’s brain, she was extremely pleased to know these things would be fetched there in huge prices, enough to make her buy whatever she wanted.

“This little baby here won’t appear early on, and it will only be used when the fight is in its intense stage. We don’t won’t our enemies to use any undermined tricks to counter it; let it be a sudden surprise for them to marvel and startle.”

Oya’s words were met by a wave of nodding from everyone. “Now go, start arranging everything, and prepare our players for tomorrow’s fight. As for the arrangements of the teams, I will trust you with this task,” she added, as she watched everyone silently leaving the palace.

“Won’t you tell them about the true dangers of these monsters?” Ela softly asked, as she stood by her side, watching the players leave.

“And cause more panic? I would be damned if I opened my mouth and said a single word about it,” she shook her head as she added, “let this curse be burdened by me alone, as this is war, and I have to be very prepared to shoulder all the bitter and heavy prices this war will bring upon us,” she added in a very cold tone, as there was no mistake in it, tomorrow many would die, even including her best friends.

“Sigh, you have matured, fast,” her master commented with a short sigh.

“For better or worse?” Oya asked, with much curiosity.

“For better, of course, these monsters, this long and ancient war, doesn’t need soft hearted muddle headed leaders to rule over the world, or else destruction would be the only sole outcome of this clash!” her master said, while expressing her own support to her.

“For better, of course, these monsters, this long and ancient war, doesn’t need soft hearted muddle headed leaders to rule over the world, or else destruction would be the only sole outcome of this clash!” her master said, while expressing her own support to her.

The night passed calmly, like a heavy silent curtain before a fire would burn out. Oya stayed the rest of the night reading and following the threads on forums. She wasn’t stressed, like the rest of her alliance, instead she was feeling much excitation about this.

She was finally able to deal a great blow to these monsters and their controlled players!

The topics posted there were all filled with arrogance and insults, but she didn’t give a heed about any of this, after all she was very confident in her win, and the more they were arrogant, the better their fall would be.

And so, the next morning came, and with it a huge roars appeared coming from far and wide, surrounding the alliance forte.

“Stay calm, be steady, they won’t be able to touch the walls of our city!”

This strange cheering was what welcomed Oya the moment she stepped outside the palace! Every single player out there was singing this strange song, and when she reached the gate of her castle, standing on top of it, she found Salsola waiting for her there.

“What is this song?” she asked.

“It’s one of the songs common now inside our alliance,” Salsola replied, as she added, “one of our players versed it yesterday, and many started to sing it all night.”

“A nice song, and a good omen,” Oya smiled, before she glanced at the horizon. She was currently standing at one of the highest points inside her alliance forte, with only her own palace being higher than her.

The lands up front were void, but Oya could already smell the scent of these dirty monsters’ seeds gathering around here.

“Be ready, it will start soon,” she said to Salsola, as she was able to sense these monsters moving here.

“Mila will lead the frontlines with Avada, while Dante is responsible for arranging the teams inside the forte,” she said, in reply to Oya’s words.

“What about you then?” Oya turned to look at her in question. “I will be leading the main defenses here, while you move out in time,” Salsola replied, while hiding the main intention behind doing so.

“Interesting, are you worried they might kill me here?” Oya chuckled, as this mere thought made her feel warm, and also laugh.

“It’s not a shame wanting to guard our alliance leader, right?”

Oya just laughed and said nothing. Amidst her laughs, in this early morning, a thin dark line suddenly appeared, coming from far, heading directly towards here.

“Be ready, they are here!” The shouts started to spread all over the fort, and Oya only glanced at her players, moving in unison towards the first wall, while some only remained inside the second walls.

“are they…?” Oya asked, while motioning with her head towards the direction of the inner wall. “Yes,” Salsola simply replied.

As they told her yesterday, Oya noticed their numbers didn’t stop at ten thousand, but climbed to reach thirty thousands by now! This was a huge number indeed, however for her, it was nothing.

“Let’s hope they won’t break anything inside my fort, or else I will kill them!” Oya coldly said, while Salsola weirdly glanced at her as she asked:

“But we are going to kill them, aren’t we?”

“Sure, but I can summon their skeletons and smash them with my bare hands, right?” Oya said with a calm smile, which Salsola saw as so creepy and weird.

The thin distant line just kept moving forward, and in an hour, the whole world was covered with dark, different sizes and shapes of monsters, all were heading straight towards here.

“Will they be enough on their own?” Salsola asked with much doubt, while watching the great number of monsters appearing towards here.

“They will,” Oya simply replied, without saying no more. She was sure, this wave was just an exploratory one, as the real attack would come later on, from players, from monsters, from inside, from outside, all at the same time.

In minutes, the monsters entered the range of the defenses of the forte, and the sound of Mila appeared to them from far, ordering the players to attack!

Huge wave of attacks fell upon the monsters, from the towers and the walls, heavily killing the monsters, or severely wounding them.

The attacks fell in all forms of fire, ice, and even rocks! The first wave of monsters couldn’t get so near the forte, despite their huge and relentless attacks onto it.

The defense of this alliance forte was really superb! After an hour of constant fighting, the monsters didn’t even manage to touch the outer walls of the forte, not even setting foot inside.

“Great, Mila is doing great,” Salsola was really excited, while Oya just nodded. This was only the first wave, and Mila did a great job dealing with it.

Which means the next and real attack would come soon!

As Oya expected, after another hour, the monsters suddenly showed a change, where many huge shaped monsters started to move, slowly, with their huge mountain-like bodies, towards the walls of the alliance.

The skills and attacks fell upon these monsters like rain, however this didn’t even kill a single one of them. the most that happened was for the monsters to be wounded, nothing more!
