As Felix saw the multitude of skeletal warriors but no sign of their flesh and blood, his ominous premonition grew stronger. The emergence of three massive figures from the shadows confirmed his worst fears!
Abominations!
These were terrifying patchwork monsters assembled from corpses!
The frenzied ogre battle servant quickly cleared the undead army. Felix withdrew the magical energy from the activated rune marks and took out a large piece of meat from the blue crystal, feeding it to the ogre battle servant. Puppet creatures also need food; although they've lost their minds, they still possess biological instincts. Lost strength needs to be replenished with food.
These three abominations were clearly incomplete. Besides the largest one in the middle equipped with a hook, the other two didn't even have weapons attached!
Felix wasn't sure what kind of creature's skeleton was used as a blueprint for these abominations, but he could tell they hadn't reached the level of undead creatures. Perhaps due to the low quality of the materials used, these life-given abominations appeared somewhat bloated, more like puppet-like patchwork monsters.
This realization brought Felix some relief, as truly elite abominations are terrifying killing machines.
In the Bible, there are records of wars against the undead, which never lack an ultra-strong abomination created from the corpses of mountain giants!
Top-tier abominations based on giant corpses are legendary, over ten meters tall, capable of breaking city walls with a single punch. Their thrown hooks could even pull down dragons from the sky!
Abominations have high magic resistance. They have no fatal injuries or vital organs like a heart; only by chopping off their heads can they be completely killed. Felix stepped back, preparing to leave these abominations to the women behind him.
But then, a piercing neigh echoed across the hillside!
"Clomp, clomp, clomp."
Blue flames flickered, and hooves stamped on the muddy ground. The ground dried up rapidly, cracking bit by bit, with traces of desolation spreading from beneath its hooves!
A knight in dark black armor appeared on the hillside, his blood-red gaze looking down at Felix and the others with bloodthirsty intent and a craving for wailing souls.
He raised his three-meter-long giant knight's lance, and his steed, a nightmare burning with ghostly fire, let out a loud neigh, charging towards Felix and the others!
A dark knight!
And a high-ranking one who had tamed a nightmare!
Felix stepped forward again, looking back at the three women behind him, and said solemnly, "I'll take care of these abominations."
The middle-aged nun ignored Felix's shameless behavior. She muttered a few spells, and frost formed under her feet, quickly spreading out. Her attendant knights drew their Viking greatswords, forming a protective triangle around her!
"If we can't beat them, we run. There's no need to die here!" Perhaps out of a touch of shame, Felix added this line.
After saying this, Felix reactivated the rune marks on the ogre battle servant and unleashed a series of negative stimulation spells on it. He then pulled Mammon’s Redemption from the ground and, with his servant back in a frenzy, roared and charged towards the three roaring abominations!
"Bang!"
A head-on clash. The largest abomination's left arm broke, and its huge form was thrown back, while the ogre battle servant also staggered from the surprise attack by the other two abominations, receiving two massive wounds!

"Protective Stone Skin!"
Felix raised Mammon’s Redemption, first casting a stone skin spell on the ogre battle servant, and then launched a corrosion spell at the severely injured complete abomination!
A dark red light struck the largest abomination's face, instantly corroding a huge hole in its head. Even with its undead nature, ignoring physical pain, it couldn't help but emit a piercing scream!
The giant hook, whistling through the air, aimed at Felix. He dodged nimbly, retreating and leaping towards the ogre battle servant entangled in close combat!
As he dodged the hook from the complete abomination, Felix placed his hand on the ogre battle servant's back. His lips moved quickly, muttering a few spells, then he said in a deep voice, "Dark Healing."
A deep black aura enveloped the ogre battle servant's wounds, and soon, under the influence of negative elements, the wounds on its body began to dry up, stopping the bleeding.
Since Felix lost the ability to use the power of holy light, he had no choice but to use Dark Healing, a spell that causes significant damage to the flesh!
The abomination missed its strike and let out an angry roar. It grabbed the hook's chain, spinning rapidly before hurling it towards Felix's location!
Since the ogre battle servant was right behind him, Felix had no choice but to brace for the attack. The huge physical impact, even after being mitigated by the shield, sent a shiver through his body, causing a trickle of blood to escape from the corner of his mouth.
"Damn it!" Felix pulled out a bottle of healing alchemical potion, drank it, and then commanded the ogre battle servant to retreat towards the back of the hillside. The abominations had no apparent weakness except for their heads.
But decapitating these towering creatures was easier said than done! Felix was considering whether to activate the "Terminal Rune," which would mean his carefully crafted ogre battle servant would be utterly destroyed if it went into "Extreme Madness."
As the huge hook came swinging again, the other two incomplete abominations also roared and charged!
Felix commanded the ogre battle servant to grab the chain. The immense impact even made the massive ogre battle servant slide back half a step, dragging two twenty-foot-long furrows in the muddy ground!
"Screw it! Going all out!" Gritting his teeth, Felix pressed his right hand on the ogre battle servant's neck, a blood-red light gathering in his pale palm, then infused it into the ogre battle servant's brain. "Roar!"
The stimulated ogre let out a painful howl, the immense pain overwhelming its mind. It fiercely yanked the chain it was holding, surprisingly flinging the six-meter-tall complete abomination into the air!
As if stimulated by the ogre battle servant's frenzied state, a fierce expression appeared on Felix's pale face as he intensified the mental stimulation.
Suddenly, three loud cries echoed in the sky!
Griffin knights!!!
Reinforcements!
Felix quickly withdrew his hand and, along with the ogre battle servant, retreated.
As Felix retreated, three five-meter-long rune spears whistled through the air! The terrifying penetration power! The rune spears, thrown with full force by the griffin knights, even produced a series of sonic booms!
These mithril rune spears, originally designed to penetrate mages' shields, now pinned the three roaring abominations firmly to the ground with unstoppable force!
Three more sonic booms!
The griffin knights in the sky spun around and threw another three rune spears! This time, the five-meter-long rune spears completely penetrated the heads of the three abominations! The tremendous impact blasted their heads apart like exploding watermelons!
Meanwhile, on the other side, a giant sword suddenly blocked the dark knight's lance, buying a brief respite for the overwhelmed middle-aged nun.
"The Silver Hand!"
Felix immediately recognized the scarred middle-aged man!
Having dealt with the three abominations, the griffin knights changed their attack direction, with a series of warning cries echoing in the sky.
At the same time, the middle-aged man who had blocked the dark knight's strike retreated. Sharp sonic booms rang out again, and three rune spears sliced through the air, targeting the dark knight on the ground!
"Clang!"
The dark knight discarded his lance and drew his giant sword from his waist, blocking the first rune spear. However, the remaining two spears pierced the nightmare he was riding. With a mournful cry, this high-ranking infernal mount was pinned to the ground by the demon-breaking rune spears!
"What terrifying penetration power!"
Felix looked up at the griffin knights in the sky, their silver armor reflecting light in the sun. Indeed, they were the elite force of the Titans Empire, capable of single-handedly taking on a scouting cavalry troop!
Such fearsome penetration power, perhaps only a legendary caster's magical shield could withstand such a formidable burst!
After killing the dark knight's mount, the griffin knights in the sky began to spiral down in a triangular formation, reaching about 150 meters above Felix and his party. They then drew another rune spear, the griffins letting out a loud cry before diving down like fighter jets!
When they were about fifty meters from the ground, the griffin knights hurled their rune spears and then beautifully arched back into the sky!
Such a terrifying strike!
At that moment, Felix even doubted that a dragon's formidable defenses could withstand such a terrifying strike!
