From there, there were those blocking the way.
The passage leading beyond the tunnel was distinctly different from the previous rocky area. A massive rock wall had split open to the left and right, with layers of black iron gates and collapsed stone structures stacked between them.
It felt as if the interior of the mountain range had been divided into separate spaces.
And in front of that,
The Death Legion was entrenched.
Shield bearers holding black skull shields formed an army. A dark barrier stretched between the shields, blocking the passage. Behind them, knights clad in black iron armor were leading the undead.
A sword-wielding soldier stepped forward.
A black aura radiated from the blade.
A sword energy flew in immediately.
I blocked them with a shield.
A shock sent a rip through my arm. At the same time, he thrust a spear and pierced the sword soldier's chest. However, Geombyeong swung his sword even just before he fell. The blade brushed the edge of the shield, trying to suck life away.
I twisted and pulled out the spear.
At that moment, the Death Knight charged through the ranks.
The massive spear faced forward.
I twisted my body just before the collision.
The spearman passed by and plunged the tip of his spear into the ground. A black explosion went off underground. A shockwave swept through the passage.
Behind them, the axe-bearer raised the sickle axes in both hands.
Dive.
He parried it with his shield, but the weight was still felt. Cracks spread across the surface of the shield.
He immediately stabbed the axe-wielder’s side with a spear. I pushed my body away and cut through.
However, the formation did not collapse.
During the period, the Death Shield Soldiers were facing off against the Black Skull Shield. The barriers of death overlapped, completely blocking the passageway ahead.
Behind them, the archers drew their bows.
An arrow of death rained down.
He raised his shield and charged. The arrow struck the shield, leaving a black mark. Through that, the assassin crept in like a shadow.
The sickle stained with poison aimed at the side.
He turned his body to dodge and swung his spear. The assassin crashed against the wall and fell.
But the hunter's grappling hook came flying at them immediately.
The chain got caught on the shield.
The Death Hunter pulled with all his might.
The moment his body was pulled forward, he slammed the spear into the ground and braced himself. Pulling the chains, he dragged the hunter out.
Then the execution officer appeared.
A giant scythe rose from the darkness.
The undead around them all stopped moving.
The execution officer struck down the sickle.
He tilted the shield and deflected the trajectory. The sick tree split the ground. He stabbed into the spear without missing an opening.
But a berserker charged from behind.
The armor was shattered in places, but the deeper the wounds, the more erratic the movement became. The Berserker stepped over the remains of the Oak Wood Bandit and struck in rapid succession.
The shield was struck repeatedly.
It was pushed back.
I let the first attack slip through my spear and blocked the second with my shield. Just before the final strike landed, he crouched and toppled the Zealot’s center of gravity.
I slid the window in just like that.
The berserker fell.
But a low chant spread from deep within the tunnel.
The Death Heukmadosa appeared during the period.
A dark sphere rose into their hands.
Darkness surged in from all directions.
At the same time, a faint light flashed from behind the legion. Black and pale lights intertwined over the barrier of death, filling the tunnel.
It wasn't only darkness that was attacking.
Even the light was sweeping across the battlefield there.
A dark sphere flew in.
He thrust the shield forward.
The stone at my feet cracked from the impact. As the Black Wizard’s curse began to spread across the shield’s surface, he turned the spear tip and pushed it away as if slicing through a dark sphere.
He charged straight forward.
I stabbed with a spear and pushed back with a shield.
The Death Knights charged back, leading their ranks. The black iron armor clashed, and the undead filled in the wake.
The passage was narrow.
There was hardly any room to retreat or escape to the side.
But if you didn't pass through here, you couldn't go beyond.
I lowered the window again.
They put up a shield.
They pushed forward once more toward the front line where darkness and light collided
