Great Nobleman.

Chapter 2040 The waters have been stirred up!
He led the knights as they strolled through the air.

Looking at the massive mixed formation gradually approaching from the distance ahead.

Yersin gripped his lance and said coldly:
"Where do these guys get the audacity to provoke us?"

Upon hearing this, the magical communication connection remained intact.

Finn, leading his mage party, stood on a wide platform high above the stone fortress below, shaking his head and saying:
"In any case, this is still a very large scale."

The only question is how many powerful individuals are inside.

As he spoke, his eyes flashed with magical light, and he activated a detection spell.

Soon, eight junior to intermediate-level Grand Knights, scattered in the distant ranks, along with a high-level undead orc, came into his field of vision.

It is obvious that their superior military force is clearly superior.

However, the enemy's troop strength was still much larger than theirs.

—After all, this is a coalition of many forces.

After recounting the intelligence he had gathered, Finn added:

"So far, we have only detected these powerful individuals."

There might also be some people hiding their presence and taking advantage of the chaos.

Everyone should be careful and vigilant.

Upon hearing this, in the continuously connected magical communication, Neo Anforsen, the leader of the [Black Hound], said in a deep voice:
"A mob is nothing to fear!"
We'll act as the vanguard in the ground battle; please provide support!

Upon hearing these words, Finn turned his head to look.

Not far away, outside the Black Hounds camp, the skeletal army, now fully assembled, quickly began to march from its standstill.

—Faced with the massive army approaching from afar, they charged forward at an ever-increasing speed!

Following closely behind, the other side's [Bone Society] team, led by Karel Kruger and a junior necromancer, also went along.

Seeing this, Finn turned his head and said:

"Andy! The defense of Stone Castle is in your hands now. We're going out to meet the enemy."

Upon hearing this, Andy, who had now changed into a mage's robe, donned various magical equipment, and was leading his team approaching from behind, nodded and said:
"Understood, leave the defense of the stone fortress to us."

After nodding to Andy, Finn's magic began to circulate rapidly, and his water elemental magic field spread out.

After a few breaths, the invisible three-headed lion leaped up and joined Yersin and the others at the top.

Then, maintaining a steady pace, the two forces, along with the two undead legions on the ground, approached the distant enemy.

Before long, the vanguards of both armies closed to a dangerous distance.

Skeletal behemoths and skeletal giants rose rapidly from the front of their respective armies, and soon clashed with each other.

Large chunks of bone fragments scattered in all directions!
Riding their warhorses through the sky, after glancing at the fierce battle below, Yersen and Finn didn't hesitate for long.

They pinpointed the locations of the two strongest enemies and swooped down from the sky, instantly creating noticeable ripples in the massive wave of bones.

—And so, a fierce battle officially began!
And then, unexpectedly:
On the ground battlefield, Neo, leading the charge, gradually repelled powerful enemies amidst a sea of ​​bones, and then led his army to completely break through the enemy's formation.

He was sneering, thinking that these enemies were indeed a rabble.

But when he looked back, he was surprised to find that their enemies had now split into many small teams, shouting all sorts of slogans, and were charging directly toward the entrance to the ruins.

Seeing this, Neo was about to lead his team to turn around and give chase.

However, at this moment, another powerful figure arrived with a team to stop them.

Looking at the person blocking his way, Neo sneered:
"What? You think all our people have come out? Now we have a chance to rush into the ruins?"

Upon hearing this, the powerful figure confronting him sneered:

How do you know we've already revealed all our power?

Hearing this, Neo sensed something was wrong but said nothing more. He gripped the bone spear tightly and charged at the leader who was blocking his way!

Meanwhile, at the same time, Andy and his group were at the ground entrance of the ruins.

Watching the scattered groups of soldiers who had managed to avoid their ground forces and were approaching the entrance to the ruins, Andy first curled his lip in disdain, then began to rapidly circulate his vast magical power.

Then, with the help of his mages, crimson flames burst forth, and the outline of the fire giant's upper body became visible to the naked eye.

Immediately following, the fire giant spread its right hand out, palm facing the distant enemy.

Soon, a thick, cone-shaped pillar of crimson fire roared continuously forward from the palm of the fire giant's right hand!

In an instant, the entire vast area in front of them was enveloped by the fire giant's attack range.

But unexpectedly:
This massive, wide-ranging attack failed to cause any casualties.

After the fire giant gradually stopped attacking.

In the direction of the attack, a gigantic skeletal giant, wielding a bone shield, stood at the forefront.

Above the skeletal giant's head, a high-ranking necromancer who had just appeared let out a chilling laugh with an air of arrogance.

At that moment, Andy glanced at the groups of people trying to bypass them from both sides, as if they wanted to enter the ruins directly.

He frowned and quickly communicated briefly with the Black Hound and the remaining powerful members of the Bone Society via a continuous magical communication connection.

He then led his mage corps out of the stone fortress and headed towards the formidable enemy ahead.

As the incomplete power of transcendence began to operate, the aura of the fire giant became increasingly profound!
—The intensity of the battle is rapidly escalating!
What infuriated Andy and the others next was:

Because the enemy was unusually numerous, and because they misjudged the enemy's true strategic intentions.

Gradually, ground teams successfully broke through to the entrance of the ruins and then quickly began to descend deeper.

After some time had passed, Yersin, Andy, and the others gradually suppressed the enemy's powerful opponents.

Meanwhile, their own ground forces quickly returned to reinforce, recaptured the entrance to the ruins, and established a solid defensive line centered on it.

Above the skeletal giant facing the fire giant, one of the enemy's strongest, a high-ranking undead mage, panted and shouted:
"Our people have entered the ruins!"

They will soon hold a sacrificial ceremony inside and then open a spatial rift!
Your plan to monopolize the ruins has failed!

I think you should save your energy and just open the ruins to us!

Upon hearing this, Andy angrily retorted:

"You're dreaming!"

Even if we were to open the ruins, it would only be after we had defeated and captured you!

No sooner had he finished speaking than Yersin and his Royal Guard, leading their knights, charged forward, raising their spears high.

A massive lance made of crimson life force instantly pierced through one of the enemy's strongest members, a high-ranking undead orc!

Immediately following, streaks of bright red thorns wrapped around the lance, binding it tightly and then gradually devouring it!
Sensing the powerful aura that was gradually disappearing completely, and the scattered crimson particles.

The numerous enemies on the scene suddenly lost all courage and fled into the distance without looking back.

Under such circumstances, the already suppressed powerhouses would certainly not linger here.

However, only a few minutes passed.

All that remained at the scene was the devastation left after the fierce battle, along with Yersin and his allies, whose faces were unusually grim.

—Undoubtedly, the exploration of the underground ruins will introduce many variables.

What they are still unaware of is:

A powerful being also mingled into the ruins.

At this moment, deep underground, in a spacious cave on the outskirts of the ruins.

Watching the undead in front of him deftly set up the sacrificial ritual and open the spatial rift.

A pleased smile appeared on the face of Kandros, who had transformed into a tall humanoid figure, wearing a black cloak with a stealth effect, and mingling among the adventurers.

—The water has been stirred up.

—Now, all he needs to do is wait for the right opportunity!
