Chapter 24

Not only did Augustine notice this "Bigger" zombie, the children were confused when they saw it, but they wanted to kill it and become even stronger. This creature was 2 meters tall, and it looked like it was glued together from different pieces of flesh. It was long but thin, his movements were deft and quiet.

- Lisa! Let's unite and try to kill it -Jonathan shouted.

-Well. Why not - she said with a smile.

After that, their squads were already preparing to kill it When they surrounded it…

-*Crack* -there was the sound of a cut neck. They were surprised that such a creature died just from the blade of the wind. After that, its head flew in the direction of their master. He picked it up and started examining it.

- Hoo? -There was a Lich in the deep part of the valley. He lived in a crypt next to the cemetery. He saw how one of his observers, who usually brings fresh bodies and is used by him as a live camera, was killed. All he saw was a creature he had never seen before. But when he saw him, only one thought appeared in his head, which he immediately uttered

- I want it! I want his bones! What are they, and what kind of magnificent creature will I create from them? I want it!

While he was talking, a spell of the highest rank "knocked" on his crypt. Namely, the "Sea of Flame". It covered the entire crypt with fire, like magma. And this creature exhaled it. Fortunately, the Lich was able to leave the "house" before it burned to the ground. He had cast a flight spell on himself and was now in the air. There was a desire in his eyes. He wanted the bones of this creature.

- You! Give me your bones! I need you. I want this!

"Hmm? Can you get them?"

- Oh? So are you reasonable? Then I'll tell you right away, that I'm stronger than you think.

"I'm also stronger than you think," he said, conjuring a chain of lightning and swinging it.

"Is that all?"- he said, dodging easily.

"Of course not"-waving his free hand, he conjured a Compressed flame

- Oooh? So you're a level 12 mage? Interesting interesting. Your bones will serve me right, trust me…

If you spot this tale on Amazon, know that it has been stolen. Report the violation.

Before he could finish, a chain flew into his head. While he was stunned, a compressed flame also flew into his head. At the last moment, he dodged and was hit in the chest. After that, he became much more serious.

- Summon the undead!- birds, gargoyles, and other relatively strong flying creatures came out of the ground. Their bodies were stored there from the very beginning of the battle, because of the flames they were slightly burned somewhere, and every tenth drowned in the flames.

- Buddy, you're not the only one who can fly. My kids can do it too. Attack!

A wave of flying creatures flew towards the dragon. But he only conjured chain lightning twice, and half of the armies were swept away, and the other was killed by his breath. Undead are especially sensitive to flames, so they died quickly.

- You! You!!- He couldn't find words and silently tried to escape, he also silently chased after them and began the pursuit. After two minutes he says

- Leave me alone! My army will come soon and you will die!

"Bring your army here, at least it will please my eyes."

-You, you! Well, we'll see who will be laughing last- They made a circle and returned to the crypt again. All the magma has already disappeared without a trace. There were a couple hundred "soldiers" there, but when he got there, he raised his hands and shouted - My children! Stand up and fight! Attack!- Thousands of monsters burst out of the ground. They were of all sorts, zombies, spirits, orcs, humans, and even some elves. Everyone was here.

- See my army, and know the pain of it! Hahahaha!

"Are these all soldiers?"

- Are you afraid?

"Alright, you are no longer of any use" - as soon as he finished, a blue flame got into the skeleton, it did not take 10 seconds as he was burned to the ground.

"Tch, Great Rank spells are still expensive for me. And this idiot, why wouldn't he immediately summon everyone and die silently without making noise?"- After that, he conjured an earth spell and closed all the undead.

PoV Jonathan

Before the master left, he ordered us to wait for his orders and be ready to move. But I recommended resting for now. We did so by placing the cloth on the ground and lying down on them. After about 20 minutes, we received a message to go in a certain direction. There was surprisingly no undead along the way. When we reached the place, we were horrified. There was a huge wall. There was a small hole in it through which the undead came out.

"You've come. I have prepared "game" for you to hunt"

-D-do we need to kill them all?- someone asked

"Naturally, to begin with, divide into two, no, three squads and start. The passage is narrow enough, and if there is danger, the shadow snakes will save you."

The cleanup was long and difficult. We had to kill thousands of zombies continuously for 8 hours a day. If no one could fight because of fatigue or the entrance was filled with corpses. Then the master sealed the entrance and burned the corpses with his breath. It's unbelievable. Those with whom it was troublesome for us to deal were easy for our master only ants, unworthy of mention. It was inspiring, we serve such a great being, and one day we will be just as strong.

It took 10 days, food was brought by groups sent by the Lord of the city. During these days I became very friendly with Gil and Lisa. I sparred with them a couple of times. Gil, even though he is a magician, still skillfully used spells and did not let me approach, and Lisa was not wary of the distance, and even if I approach close to her, it was not a fact that my strike will reach her.

She was incredibly agile, and her alteration spells. She changed her body in perfect moments so that it would become better suited to the circumstances. She might change her legs to rabbit legs and jump higher, then grow claws and fight with me for a short time on "swords", then she will make snake bones and be incredibly flexible. Because of this, she became a difficult opponent for me. But she can't maintain this state for long, when I asked her why she said

-Imagine that your body is metal, which, no matter how bent, would always align. This means that you need to move this metal from the inside, and then keep the metal in this state. It interferes with concentration a bit but is of great value in combat. This is how our tribe could survive on the outskirts of the central region.

It was amazing. After a couple of sparring sessions, I forced Lisa and Gil to spar. Lisa came out to the winners, and then barely. Gil almost hit her in the head with a fire spell, but Lisa's claws came to his throat faster. Fortunately, the protective field protected them. However, the next time Gil came out the winner, hitting her in the head a second before her claws. Because of this, we agreed that we are approximately equal. Each of us has a 50/50% victory percentage in duels. Bern has also been added a couple of times, but he still needs to grow and is weaker than us.
