A pale "aging" curse appeared on top of the blue Udal beast's head. It was so slow that it couldn't attack effectively.
Abel knew that even with the help of Bruce's aura, the spirit guardian Knight wouldn't be able to block many of the blue Udal beast's attacks. Therefore, it was important to reduce the number of attacks from the blue Udal beast.
Of course, with 11 spirit guardian knights, they were more than enough to block the blue Udal beast in turns.
The spirit guardian Knight only needed to block two directions. The grey bear and Bruce were in the other two directions, so they didn't have to worry at all.
After a few rounds of "revenge" combat skills, Bruce stunned the blue Udal beast with a "shield strike" from the "spirit" shield in his left hand.
Abel saw that there were only two "bone walls" left blocking the way. These hell creatures were stronger than he expected.
The blue Udal beast's strength was also beyond his expectations. From his experience, this blue Udal beast should have the "skin hardening" hell ability on its body.
Under the blue Udal beast's limited attacks, the spirit guardian Knight, grey bear, and Bruce all had the "damage amplification" curse appear on top of their heads. This meant that the blue Udal beast also had the "special curse: damage amplification" hell ability.
Plus the ghostly speed from before, that was the "special speed" hell ability.
This meant that the blue Udal beast had at least three types of hell strengthening abilities. It was no wonder that it was able to hold on for so long under such attacks.
Abel couldn't wait any longer. Especially with the "special curse: damage amplification" ability of the blue Udal beast. Once it entered a group battle, his combat team would suffer heavy losses.
He mobilized the space force in his soul. This was his strongest single-target attack, and it could only be used once.
The space force flew towards the blue Udal beast with his power of the Will. There were enemies all around, so the blue Udal beast couldn't dodge this attack. The space force entered the front of its head and flew out from the back.
This attack dealt a fatal blow to the blue Udal beast. The blue Udal beast stopped struggling, and its body fell to the ground as well.
Abel saw an illusory grey soul shadow and a golden ball fly into the Hradik cube on his right arm and let out a long sigh of relief.
At the same time, the last "bone wall" was broken. The Udal beast was at the front, and there were even more hell creatures behind it. There were at least a few hundred of them.
He had already made a decision. If he were to fight those hell creatures head on, he didn't know how many spirit guardian knights and spirit guardian wizards would end up dead, and he wouldn't be able to guarantee his own safety.
This was not the first or second continent of the Dark World. He could use spells to wipe out hell creatures, but ever since he was on the third continent, he would be in danger if he wasn't careful.
He didn't even dare to fight in close range for his own safety. There was no way he would let himself get caught in a group battle.
These hell creatures were just too alert. They were just discovered by the blue Udal beast, and all of them were chasing after them.
He made a decision in an instant. He wrapped his power of the Will around all of his summons and summoned creatures. A "move in a flash" spell pattern appeared in his hand, and he moved 400 meters towards the inferno furnace with his summons and summoned creatures.
It wasn't that he didn't want to move more. It was just that no matter how strong his power of the Will was, under the influence of the lava river, 400 meters was the limit he could bring so many summons and summoned creatures with his power of the Will.
As soon as the "instantaneous movement" stopped, he quickly scanned his surroundings with his spirit. He wanted to find an environment where he could have a strong summon like the grizzly bear in front of him, and where he could safely attack from behind.
He already had an understanding of the environment before, so he just needed to make a precise judgment.
When those hell creatures turned around and chased after the team, he wrapped all of his summons and summoned creatures with his power of the Will again. Afterward, they appeared on the inferno furnace altar.
The altar was a tall platform carved out of stone. There was lava flowing out from the center, and an anvil-like sacrificial altar made of some unknown material was placed in the center.
On one side of the altar was a giant stone statue with a scene of hell. The other three sides were stairs that could only be used to reach the altar.
Although the altar wasn't big, it was enough to fit all of Abel's summons and summoned creatures.
The three stairs were guarded by the grey bear, Bruce, and Frankenstein. The grey bear was a meat shield, so it wouldn't be a problem for it to guard the stairs.
Bruce was a fanatical Knight. With the help of a shield and armor, as well as his powerful close combat ability, he could definitely guard the stairs.
Frankenstein was a choice that Abel had to make. Letting a law-defying wizard guard the stairs was a bit too much for him, but there was no one else here other than him.
Luckily, he had the body of an iron puppet. Even if the hell creatures attacked him, they wouldn't be able to break through his defense. On top of that, Abel would take care of him, so it shouldn't be a big problem.
Abel stood in the center with his spiritual guardian Knight and spiritual guardian wizard beside him. The spiritual guardian knight had already equipped the rune word bow "Riphook."
In order to increase the team's survivability, he also summoned the Oak Sage.
When everything was ready, the hell creatures rushed over.
Other than the most eye-catching green Dark Gold-tier Hephaestus, the tall Udal beasts had stronger bodies and faster speed than the ordinary Udal beasts. It could be seen that they were all underlings of hell creatures that existed to protect Hephaestus.
On the side, there was a monstrous demon the size of a goat on all fours. Abel was not worried about the monstrous demon since it was a close combat hell creature. The only thing that gave him a headache was that it could give birth to many small monstrous beasts.
Monstrous monstrous beasts could be killed in 2 to 3 hits, but they were still very scary in numbers.
For wizards, however, this wasn't too much of a problem. AoE spells were their natural enemy.
Abel was most worried about the 5 hell Knights with the "bone armor" spell. They were real long-range spellcasters, and their spells were very powerful.
The battle began. The Udal beasts were the fastest, and they quickly rushed to the side of the altar.
They were close-range attackers, and they used their giant arms to attack the grey bear, Bruce, and Frankenstein who were defending the stairs.
The grey bear and Bruce defended well against the first attack, but Frankenstein was stunned by the Udal beast's attack.
Abel shook his head slightly. This was the difference between a close-range attacker and a long-range attacker. Even if a long-range attacker had an almost indestructible body, they still couldn't be compared to a real close-range attacker.
He continued to throw out the "aging" curse in his hand, and all the hell creatures closest to the altar were cursed to slow them down.
At the same time, the 5 hell Knights began to attack. Fireballs, ice balls, and poison balls flew towards Abel.
The "spirit guardian Knight" took the initiative to block these attacks. What surprised Abel was that each of these attacks took away more than half of the life force of the "spirit guardian Knight."
In other words, it would only take 2 hits to kill the "spirit guardian Knight."
The defense of the "spirit guardian Knight" was not weak. With the buff of the level 29 "skeleton command" and the level 29 "summoning resist" to increase its elemental resistance, as well as the life force of the "oak sage", the defense of the "spirit guardian Knight" was already very strong.
The reason why it was said to be weak was because it was nothing compared to the other summons and contracted creatures.
The grey bear's strong defense, Bruce's close-range attacks, and all kinds of auras. Even Frankenstein was not something the "spirit guardian Knight" could compare to.
The Druil soul would not let the "spirit guardian Knight" die. As long as it wasn't a one-hit kill, the "full recovery vitality potion" would be able to heal it.
Abel no longer valued the "full recovery vitality potion" as much as before. Ever since he had the herb garden and the free labor of the "elite elves," he no longer lacked potion ingredients. He didn't have to search everywhere for herbs.
However, under such circumstances, he couldn't just let the five Hell Knights attack like that. Every attack would consume a bottle of Full Recovery Potion, and the consumption rate was too shocking.
The Udal beasts had already surrounded the altar. Behind them was the grotesque demon. The grotesque demon had already given birth to many little grotesque beasts, so the number of hell creatures around the altar had exceeded 1000.
Abel gave an order to the "spirit guardian Knight." The "hell Knight" no longer had any hell creatures around them. The 11 "spirit guardian knights" instantly disappeared from the altar and appeared next to the "hell knight."
Bruce activated the "faith" aura and lowered the defense and elemental resistance of the hell creatures around him. 11 "chain lightning" flew into the hell creatures.
Frankenstein cast a "blizzard" in front of him. As long as a hell creature appeared in front of him, they would be slowed down and frozen.
Without the threat of the hell knights, Abel's safety was guaranteed, so he went all out in his combat mode.
In this river of flames, almost all the hellish lifeforms had a natural resistance to fire elements, so using fire spells here wouldn't cause too much damage to the hellish lifeforms.
Therefore, he cast "frozen orbs" with both hands. Blue orbs flashing with ice crystals flew towards the hell creatures and continuously shot out ice bullets in the air.
The first hell creature to fall was the Udal beast in front of Bruce. After being hit by multiple spells, the Udal beast fell to the ground after being hit three times by Bruce's "Revenge" combat skill.
Abel's eyes landed on the Udal beast on the ground. This hell creature had a tough body and was the best medium for "corpse explosion."
The "corpse explosion" spell pattern appeared in his hand. Afterward, he extracted a strand of death qi from the soul of the Druil and activated the "corpse explosion" spell pattern.
The dead Udal beast's body began to expand violently. Fire elements crashed around inside the body. Finally, with a loud bang, the body exploded.
Affected by the explosion, the nearby hell creatures that didn't have much life force were directly killed.
Abel didn't stop. As long as there were corpses, he could continue to cast "corpse explosion."
The level 29 "corpse explosion" spell was terrifying. It was the main attack method of a priest. It was still one of the main attack methods of an intermediate priest all the way to an archpriest.
Just like the "corpse explosion" just now, with the Udal beast as the medium, 70% to 120% of the original life force of the Udal beast was converted into fire and physical damage, causing damage to all creatures in an area.
Even though the hell creatures here had strong fire resistance, Bruce had the "faith" aura activated, which suppressed their fire resistance to an extremely low level.
Corpses kept exploding around the altar. Each "corpse explosion" would cause the death of many hell creatures, which allowed the "corpse explosion" spell to be cast continuously.
The little monsters like the Wym beasts were a bit better. The damage caused was limited. However, the corpses of the Udal beasts and the Grotesque beasts would cause the death of dozens of hell creatures each time.
As the number of explosions increased, the life force of the hell creatures also decreased. This caused more hell creatures to die with each explosion.
It was like a domino. When one fell, it would cause more to fall.
With the advantage of the terrain and the bonuses of many professions, Abel could use more methods to attack the hell creatures in the most effective way.
When the thousands of hell creatures around Abel had almost all fallen, only the dark gold Hephasta was still holding on. At this time, Hephasta was facing the "grey bear." It wouldn't be able to cause much damage to the "grey bear" in a short period of time.
