Chapter 1547: Long Drawn Battle
Sivan was shocked when he heard the description of the undead creatures.
It could be said that he has a fair knowledge of the undead creatures from Sam's memories. And in fact, he can find some similarities to the undead creatures from those memories.
But he cannot exactly figure out what these undead creatures are. What kind of creatures they are? How advanced they are in the undead hierarchy. He cannot identify that.
And if there is only one kind of new undead creature, he would have been able to swallow it. But the descriptions he got are extremely confusing and terrifying.
"An undead creature was being hit by a soldier constantly, but it is constantly emitting black smoke which consumed the soldier who is currently crazy and seemed to be in intense pain.
He is acting as if he is hallucinating and attacking the same team members.
"A soldier killed an undead creature, but the black liquid that came out of the undead right before it exploded was splattered on it.
He seemed to have been exposed to the curses and the poison. His body is corroding at a rapid pace and his vitals are dropping by every second.
Oh, he is also being consumed by the white crystal. We need orders on how to tackle these things."
Sivan was overwhelmed by this.
These three kinds of undead creatures are something that he didn't know. He started going through the information he had in his head. There are some features that are matching, but he cannot find the exact one to find out how to deal with them.
Sivan didn't have any orders or advice to give except for letting them use every card he had. And that is all he did.
But as he observed the battle, he noticed that his mercenary soldiers are falling too fast. He could only command his special troops to join the battle and reduce the wastage of soldiers.
He needs mercenary soldiers to barge into the Gaja clan and engage the clan forces directly.
They need to be there to exhaust the energy of the other party and then give a slight advantage to their own elite subordinates.
That also didn't change much. So, he had to run to Cray who is currently resting. For some reason, he trusted this guy more than Avlyn and he also liked talking to him.
He believed that he might help him out. Even if not directly, he can help him by sharing some knowledge.
He ran towards him and explained the characteristics of the undead creatures.
Cray was surprised and almost wanted to come out to watch them himself.
But his teammates stopped him.
"I need to see those things, guys. That is way too abnormal for me to ignore."
"Well, you don't need to. The kid is right and he is saying the truth. There are indeed such weird undead creatures outside. We cannot identify, but we didn't care much. They are undead creatures at the end of the day.
As long as these idiotic mercenaries can find a way to avoid the traps laced within the undead creature's bodies, they will be completely fine.
They are just idiots that is why they are losing."
"So, there are indeed variants of the advanced skeletal, cursed, and poison undead?"
"Yes, I think so."
Cray looked at Sivan asked.
"You do know what I am talking about right?"
"Yes, I understand. Based on Sam's memories, there is some special undead created by some of the high-level necromancers. Some of them focus too much on one category of undead and develop them and some of them are these skeletal, Poison, and cursed undead creatures.
But even those descriptions don't match the current undead that is running rampant.
They are way too problematic and abnormal. I cannot find a way to counter them. The only way is to get into a direct battle with them and the long-range attacks. But they can only help us get past so far."
"Sam didn't have the remedy for this in his memories? You can tell me the creation process then. I will try to figure out a way."
"No, that is not possible. I think he made these creatures from the scratch in the Gaja clan. He didn't even have any design plan or even idea regarding them before."
"I thought he was quite skilled in necromancy."
"Yes, he is. But that is not his main object of focus. He just dabbles in many things and necromancy is a very tiny part of his dabbling."
"Then, we can't do anything more. If you can capture a few and bring them here, I can try and figure out a weak point. But that is impossible given the current circ.u.mstances. Because before I might figure it out, you will already be in a very perilous situation.
If you cannot do that, try to get me a recording of the undead creatures, I will try to help you out."
Sivan nodded and went to bring back footage ten minutes later.
Cray looked through the footage and was surprised.
"I have a few theories, but they are not enough. It seems like all the undead creatures are loaded with curses.
They are unnaturally strong.
The bone weapon enhancement might be the partial usage of the bone enhancement curse which is used to normally reduce the agility of the targets.
The targets' bones are solidified to the extreme and they will not be able to move their joints.
It could be a variant of that curse or it might be a completely new curse altogether.
As for the poison and corrosion one, I don't think you need any help there. It is impossible to just normally counter them with regular means. Because the poison is custom-made.
I can immediately say it for sure and I also think it is laced with the essence of many poisonous concoctions. You can either kill them one by one or you kill them all, you have to pay a price if it is from the short-range.
As for the cursed undead, they are pretty normal. As long you are sure that you can find a way to get rid of the curses, you can attack them. I don't know what is up with the white crystal thing though, but even the curses part is pretty tough.
You won't be able to deal with it that easily. You will need a lot of effort and time to find out what the curses are and find a counter for those curses. Do you understand what I am saying?"
"So, pretty much give up on it?"
"Yes."
"But they are way too many losses already and they will only keep on increasing if I let things go on like this."
"There is no other way. You can either use some kind of tricks that are left up in your sleeve or you can just let the mercenaries deal with them."
"Alright. Thank you for your advice."
Sivan walked out of the tent with gritted teeth as he felt extremely conflicted and troubled.
After some consideration, he immediately took out the communication token and gave out orders. Send all the puppets to the front end. Even the animal puppets and the normal puppets. Gliders and the Ambush team a.s.sist the puppets and kill the undead creatures.
The rest of the mercenaries stay behind the puppets and a.s.sist. Save your lives and preserve your energy as much as you guys can."
"Sir, but the undead are spread too much and too deep. This is going to be hard."
"Try your best. The elites joined the battle, so they will be a.s.sisting you. The puppets will be going all out. Use them as s.h.i.+elds if you want to. But I need as many soldiers as possible to destroy the Gaja clan."
While he is giving out orders, meanwhile another batch of undead creatures came out of the Gaja clan.
But they are special.
Unlike the undead that is spread across the battlefield, these undead creatures don't just belong to one specific category. Instead, they belong to all three categories and they are made from the corpses of very high-level cultivators.
They zoomed into the battlefield as they ran past the current conflicts.
They are aiming straight for the Mari clan's camp and they ran at the full speed.
As soon as the Mari clan members who are battling observed their speed, they became panicked.
Some elites from the earth armor group tried to block them, but they were all crushed in just one moment.
The speed and strength were obviously beyond them and the information was quickly shared back to the main camp which was in the middle of reorganizing.
Sivan heard the news and immediately called for the elites of the late-stage Consummate stage to engage them.
They are currently not partic.i.p.ating in the battle as they don't want to waste their time on the undead creatures before they went to the city.
But now undead creatures of their level showed up, there is no point in holding back anymore.
