Many ants could kill an elephant!
This was an old saying that Grimm had looked down on in the past, but now it was being used in front of him. He found it hard to accept.
If the Balrog was facing off against the humans, the human army would have collapsed the moment Lord Gao's roar appeared. How could they be like the Undead, fearlessly using their bodies and numbers to push back their enemies?
The Balrog had only appeared for a few minutes, but it had already incinerated tens of thousands of Undead. However, the tide of Undead still showed no signs of decreasing. As the Undead swarmed out of the caverns, they occupied every inch of space in the massive cavern. They were attacking the Balrog and Grimm's group of three from all directions.
Among the three of them, Alice was the weakest.
Although she had a few sealed Cards of Fate that could summon a few Wizard Beasts or Servants, summoning summoned creatures below Tier 2 would be suicidal in a situation like today's. Even if it was a Tier 2 summoned creature, if its physique and strength were slightly weaker, it could only wait for death.
Therefore, facing the current situation, Grimm could only erupt with large scale Fire Spells.
Flaming Storm!
Meteor Shower!
Mount Doomsday!
…
These Undead creatures had weak physiques and strength, and the only thing they had to worry about was their terrifying numbers. Hence, Grimm's fire spells were not powerful, but they covered a large area and lasted for a long time.
After clearing the cavern, the flames would be extinguished, but within half a minute, the Undead would swarm in and occupy the cavern once more. After another explosion, the remaining flames would be extinguished, and a new wave of Undead would swarm in …
Even with the support of the Flame Core, Grimm's endurance far surpassed ordinary Elemental Sorcerers. However, casting large-scale spells so frequently still put a lot of pressure on his body.
Fortunately, he had the Balrog's help. The two of them took turns to attack, alleviating some of the pressure on Grimm.
Meanwhile, Ulthar, who was at the back of the team, watched the battle silently.
However, as Grimm attacked again and again, the Tier 3 Dark Witch's face, which was covered by the shadows, started to reveal a trace of surprise.
This wizard's Power of Fire was very pure, and … it had a strong aftereffect that was beyond his expectations!
Judging from the scale of the undead army, Ulthar thought the wizard would have asked for help a long time ago. But no matter how dangerous the situation was, this guy named Grim was still struggling. Moreover, the dark red flame barrier that he propped up not only withstood the attacks of thousands of undead, but also tightly protected the two witches who were hiding behind him.
Alice had an ambiguous relationship with him, so it was not surprising that he would deliberately protect her. However, Shi Feng's dark-red flame barrier had trapped the Tier 3 Dark Witch, Ulthar. He had no intention of dragging her into the fray just because she was much stronger than he was.
This … surprised Ulthar, who had always been proud of her identity as a witch, and also made her a little angry!
Does he really think that all witches are as delicate and weak as Alice? Does he really think that all witches are as weak and weak as Alice? After all, in the North, it was the powerful Northern Witches who held up the sky. In front of the real Northern Witches, the so-called wizards were nothing more than tools for entertainment and decorations.
Hence, the more Grimm protected Ulthar, the deeper the shadows in Ulthar's eyes became.
Anyone who was familiar with the Dark Witch would know that this was a sign that the Tier 3 Dark Witch had lost control of her anger.
However, there was no one worthy of her anger, so Ulthar could only accumulate the anger in her heart and burn it in her shriveled chest …
Perhaps it had sensed that the price of using the low-ranked undead to kill the group of Magi was too high. Hence, with the crisp sound of hooves, an undead knight clad in metal armour and with a helmet covering its face, rode out from the depths of the fog on a huge skeletal warhorse.
As a high-tiered undead, the Undead Knight's every movement carried a domineering aura.
All the Skeletal Warriors and Ghouls around it naturally hid to the sides, not a single undead daring to get within five meters of it.
A Level 2 Undead Knight … Looking at the black fog surrounding it, it was obviously a Dark Knight that had grasped the energy of darkness.
Behind the Dark Knight, the sound of bones rubbing against each other could be heard, and a large group of skeletons appeared in front of them leisurely.
Looking at the skeletons' white bone armor, the white bone daggers at their waists, the white bone rings on their heads, and the white bone staffs in their hands … Grimm's heart sank.
They were Undead Spellcasters!
Although the aura they released was not very strong, they were at least a Tier 1 Skeleton Wizard. However, spellcasters were spellcasters, and they could not deal with them as casually as they did with ordinary undead.
The Undead were undead creatures formed by some broken souls attached to broken bones.
If the broken soul was a powerful spellcaster when it was alive, it might have retained a portion of its casting techniques and knowledge. If such a soul landed on a broken skeleton, it could become the most basic Skeleton Wizard. If it landed on a zombie, it could become a Zombie Wizard.
After thousands of years of accumulation and evolution, the Skeleton Wizard could become the current Skeleton Wizard, and the Zombie Wizard could become the terrifying Lich.
After becoming an Undead Spellcaster, no matter what the soul's innate ability was, it would naturally change to the Necromancy Element. The Skeleton Wizards were naturally most proficient in Bone Spells.
Hence, as soon as the Skeleton Wizards appeared, a large group of white bone spears shot towards them like raindrops.
Bone Spear, a Tier 1 Bone Spell. Attack: 35-50 degrees. The tip of the bone spear would explode upon hitting the target, causing splash damage of around 3 degrees. In addition, the bone spear would also carry around 5 degrees of negative energy damage (Note: Creatures with negative energy are immune to it).
The moment the white bone spears appeared in his field of vision, the A.I. Chip's scanned data was projected into Grimm's mind.
In truth, the power of a single bone spear could be considered weak, not even worthy of being a Tier 1 spell. It could barely match the strength of a high-ranked acolyte in the Magus World.
However, it could not withstand the concentrated attacks!
The bone spears shot by over a hundred Skeleton Wizards did not stop piercing the dark red flame barrier. The negative energy on the bone spears clashed with the fire elemental energy, causing a slight elemental explosion in the air. However, the bone spears that were stronger than steel still managed to withstand the dark flames, piercing into the lava body of the Balrog.
With the huge Balrog in front, the rest of the bone spears were blocked by Grimm's lava shield.
The first wave of attacks did not cause any damage to the three.
However, as the master of the Balrog, Grimm could sense it clearly.
In order to withstand this volley of bone spears, the Balrog's elemental reserves in its heart had been reduced by 6%. If they did not think of a way to eliminate these Skeleton Wizards, the Balrog would eventually be beaten back to its original state, no matter how powerful it was.
Grimm's eyes flickered, and he issued a series of commands.
The terrifying Flame Demon that had been standing in front of him suddenly roared at the sky, and its entire body suddenly disappeared in the huge ring of flames that soared into the sky.
Flame Leap!
Under Grimm's command, the Balrog used Flame Leap to instantly appear in the middle of the Skeleton Wizards' formation. It did not even need to activate any spells. Just the lava shield and the high temperature flames around its body were enough to deal a terrifying amount of damage to the Skeleton Wizards.
But just as the terrifying Balrog raised its hands and was about to use a powerful Fire Spell to bury the Bone Spellcasters, a black lightning bolt flew out from the side and pierced through the Lava Shield around its body. It pierced through three of the Flame Shields and pierced through its chest in one fell swoop.
This sudden attack caused Grimm's brows to twitch. He could not help but cast a cold gaze at the Tier 2 Dark Knight.
Just now, it was the Dark Knight that had thrown its four-meter long spear, piercing through the Balrog's lava body.
Through the A.I. Chip's scan, Grimm could clearly 'see' the power of the Dark Knight's attack.
519 degrees!
For a Tier 2 Dark Knight, this was a shocking number!
Through the Dark Knight's attack, the A.I. Chip could roughly estimate the Dark Knight's basic stats.
[Dark Knight] (Tier 2 Undead Creature that has mastered dark magic. Basic stats: Strength:
21-23 Vitality:
Greater than 20, Agility:
Greater than 15, Spirit:
Greater than 13 …
This Undead creature's vitality was much higher than Grimm's, who had advanced to Tier 2.
After all, Grimm was an Elemental Magus, and did not invest too much in vitality and strength. Only by transforming into the Balrog could Grimm's strength and vitality exceed 15 points, and he could barely hold his own against these Tier 2 Magi.
However, as a Tier 2 Elemental Magus that specialized in fire, Grimm's spirit was at 27 points, which was a good starting point for a Tier 2 Magus.
Hence, if Grimm wanted to fight this Dark Knight, the best way to do so was to maintain a certain distance from it and drown it with powerful fire spells.
However, just as Grimm was about to step forward, the cold voice of the Outhar Magus came from behind him.
"You stay here. Leave the Dark Knight to me!"
