Strongest Necromancer Of Heaven's Gate Chapter 210.3

When Pazuzu was several hundred meters away from the defensive line of Twisted Destiny, the Demonic Defender stopped and faced the AlphRanked Deimos Monster with his shield raised high.

Lux wasn't afraid of getting any demerits, but he still had to make it seem like everything that would happen from this point on was merely an accident.

The Alpha Monster was originally fighting against the Guild, Thunder Oath, which was one of the Top 5 Guilds in Whitebridge City.

When the Diabolical Demon Flying Tiger descended on the battlefield, the Guild's defenses instantly broke apart. They were simply no match against the AlphRanked Deimos Monster, who was supposed to be handled by one of the Elite Teams from the Kingdom of Gweliven.

However, since five Deimos-Ranked Monsters appeared at the same time, they didn't have enough manpower to come to their aid.

Just as the monster was about to start a one-sided massacre, Pazuzu appeared and used Duel [EX] to force the Alpha Monster to follow him.

This allowed the Thunder Oath Guild to escape a calamity, and all of them, including their Guild Master, watched with bated breath as the Flying Tiger was lured away from their location.

Since Thunder Oath's defensive lines weren't far away from Twisted Destiny's, Pazuzu was able to reach them before the duration of his skill, Madlad Rush, ended.

With a single swipe from the Flying Tiger's claws, Pazuzu smashed into Twisted Destiny's defensive lines, and turned into particles of light.

"Damn you!" the Guild Master of Twisted Destiny roared in anger at the disappearing Pazuzu before giving out his order. "Everyone, retreat! Don't bother to face it. Just run!"

The members of Twisted Destiny didn't need to be told twice as they turned tail and ran with all of their might. They had seen how powerful this monster was when it had wiped them all off from the face of the Dungeon.

When people died in the Dungeon, they would respawn and lose a quarter of their combined stat points. But even if it wasn't real death, the pain and fear that they had experienced back then was still fresh in their memories.

Right now, they weren't inside a Dungeon, but in the open world.

If they died here, their deaths would be permanent.

Lux had summoned all of his Named Creatures, and placed them in different locations on the map. Ishtar and Orion were within the defensive lines of the Arcadian Lords, simply hiding underground and waiting for Lux's orders before striking.

The Half-Elf would gladly gain demerit points from their attack. Anyway, he could easily gain them back by allowing Diablo to fight as many monsters as he could. However, there were many ways to take advantage of the conditions that had been drafted by the City Officials.

In short, the red-headed teenager was exploiting the loopholes of the rules, which allowed him to sabotage his opponents legally.

Take for example, Pazuzu. What the Demonic Defender did was to save the Guild of Thunder Oath from being wiped out by the Alpha Monster. Because of this, his action couldn't be seen as a demerit as it was considered as an act of helping others.

The Half-Elf chuckled internally as he watched the Alpha Monster devastate the defensive lines of Twisted Destiny in a matter of seconds.

Aina, who was also paying attention to the chaos that was happening to her rival guild, urged her guild members to finish the Ivory Killer Warthog while they still had time.

Although they were taking it easy right now, it would be no laughing matter if the two Deimos Monsters joined hands and attacked them together.

'We should wrap this up,' Lux thought as he continued to use his Mana Drain to prevent the Deimos-Ranked Warthog from staging a comeback.

As if sensing its impending doom, the Ivory Killer Warthog gathered its strength and… ran away!

This development made the Eternal Guild cry out in surprise, never expecting that their opponent would flee the moment it regained its strength. Fortunately, Diablo was there so, before the Warthog could even run more than a hundred-meters, it was forced to turn back and face the Skeleton Rider, whose physical damage had now crossed over three hundred thousand.

Airon ran towards Diablo, and the Skeleton Rider leapt on its back, allowing him to use his mounted abilities. After understanding his opponent, Diablo deemed that he would now be able to fight it, alongside his mount Airon, due to the boost in attack and defense that he currently possessed.

Since he was a Skeleton Rider, the moment he gained access to his mount, his Rider Skills, as well as his Charge Skills had all become available to him.

Diablo had temporarily changed his weapon to a spear, which Randolph had crafted for him.

Although it was only a Unique Weapon, and only had one single ability inside it, which was Indestructible, it was still the best weapon that the Skeleton Rider could use in this scenario.

Airon's body was enveloped in flames, as he ran towards the charging Warthog like a fireball. Diablo was about to use one of his strongest mounted abilities, which he had acquired from the medallion that Lux had found in Barca's possession when they went to the Dungeon of Orc Dominion.

Avetia Kingdom's Elite Cavalry Medallion.

Rarity: Mythical

Requirement: Only for Professions that specialize in mounted combat.

– When wielding a spear, you will be able to use the skill Hero's Charge.

+20 to All Stats for any classes that allows you to fight while mounted on a beast.

+10% increase to mobility, and physical attack.

+100 to Physical Attack.

< Hero's Charge >

– A full powered charge attack that deals 300% of your overall physical damage to your target. Can only be used when mounted on a beast.

– If your enemy is bigger than you, it deals an additional 100% damage to your target. Can only be used when mounted on a beast.

With Diablo's Physical damage amounting to over three hundred thousand, the skill, Hero's Charge, was no laughing matter.

Just as Lux expected, the moment the two forces clashed, the Ivory Killer Warthog uttered a blood-curdling roar before collapsing on the ground.

Airon, and Diablo, were blown away by the impact of the collision.

The Skeleton Rider was mostly safe, but Airon only had a quarter of its health remaining. If Diablo hadn't taken the brunt of the damage, the Nightmare Horse would have certainly perished after that single collision.

"Aina, please heal the Nightmare Horse," Lux said and the doll-like beauty nodded her head in understanding.

A moment later, a healing light descended upon the fallen Nightmare Horse, which allowed it to regain a third of its Health.

The Guild Members of Eternal raised their weapons high up in the air and shouted their victory cries, which spread across the battlefield.

Lux and Aina glanced at each other and smiled.

The Half-Elf was dumbfounded. Although Aina's smile only consisted of the corner of her lips rising by a fraction, it was still enough for the red-headed teenager to receive a critical hit to his heart due to how beautiful it was.

However, the brief smile on Aina's face disappeared when the body of the Ivory Killer Warthog disappeared in front of her eyes

A moment later, Diablo walked towards Lux holding the enchanted Beast Ring in his hand. The Skeleton Rider had taken the corpse of the Deimos-Ranked Monster for safekeeping, making Aina, as well as the members of Eternal look at the Half-Elf with a face filled with injustice.

"I-I'm just going to hold onto it for safekeeping," Lux stuttered. "Relax. Everyone fought hard, so it is normal that we should split the rewards 50/50. I will take the Beast Core, and your Guild Leader will have the Warthog's body. That way, she can commission skilled blacksmiths to craft weapons, and armors, for your entire guild."

Lux's explanation made the Dwarves regain the smile on their faces and nodded their heads amicably.

Although Lux was the one that would get the beast core, none of them had any qualms about it. Aina and her guild members weren't stupid. They knew that they wouldn't have been able to defeat the Deimos-Ranked Warthog as quickly as they did without Diablo's help.

Their only concern was whether or not the Half-Elf would be taking everything with him and not give them anything for their hard work.

Suddenly, a thunderous roar erupted not far from them.

The Diabolical Demon Flying Tiger was finally pushed back by the concentrated barrage of the Gweliven Kingdom's Army, and had shifted its sights in their direction.

With a single glance, Aina knew that the Beast Monster was too strong, so she immediately ordered the retreat of her forces

Lux stared at the Monster with a grim expression on his face. The Elysium Compendium had given him some information about this new opponent. He instantly knew then and there that the Deimos-Ranked Warthog that they had just killed was nothing compared to the foe that was now currently headed in their direction.

"Diablo, buy us some time to retreat," Lux ordered

The Skeleton Rider nodded his head in understanding as he ran towards the Flying Tiger.

Lux only hoped that his Named Creature would be able to buy them enough time so that the Eternal Guild could distance themselves away from the Flying Monster that had marked them all as its next target.
