Witch Redemption

The most sensible approach to two witches who make a living by summoning is not to fight their summons to the death, but to eliminate the summoners as soon as possible and solve the problem once and for all.

The undead army, in particular, strongly suspected that they had no way to break the deadlock unless they killed Lorina Yuffie.

"Everyone, follow me!"

At this moment, the twenty-man squad led by Leo Hosen of the Abyss God race has already marched toward the gap on the border where a fierce battle is taking place.

Even across the endless night, they could feel the terror of that boundless sea of ​​the dead.

Chapter 52 Breakthrough in the Dark

As far as the eye could see, there was an endless army of undead, like a vast ocean.

Behind them, a large number of soldiers belonging to the Kingdom of Ross were using various light-based super-tier magic to block the undead army's offensive and confine it to this only gap.

The burst of brilliant light illuminated a dark mass of skeletons, and the deafening explosions unleashed towering white flames that caused countless fully armed undead skeletons to melt away in the holy light, turning to ashes.

However, this high-level light magic still had limited impact against the vast ocean of undead creatures.

No matter how large the gap was, it would be completely filled by new undead creatures in a short time. The terrifying undead army continued to advance towards this southern border, seemingly endless.

Faced with such an extreme situation, all the soldiers of the Kingdom of Ross were on high alert, using countless barriers and lethal magic to try to hold back this only gap.

Because everyone knows how terrifying the so-called death tide is.

In particular, the death tide unleashed by a goddess-level witch meant that all the undead creatures present were at least at the diamond level in strength.

This kind of low-level skeleton is usually equivalent to diamond-level strength, which is common knowledge.

However, once the battle began, people realized that these rampaging undead skeletons were actually at the peak of the legendary level, and their numbers were so great that only beings at the demigod level or above could withstand them. As a result, many of the weak soldiers in the Kingdom of Ross had been relegated to the second line and were only responsible for logistics.

If it weren't for the immense power of the death tide, the Kingdom of Ross wouldn't have struggled so much to withstand it, and the Abyss Gods of the Chaos Order would have had to personally intervene to break the deadlock for the Kingdom of Ross.

The terrifying death tide, coupled with the double suppression of the god-level domain, and countless unfavorable conditions, all seemed to indicate that no matter how long it took, they absolutely could not retreat again, and everyone had to be prepared for a protracted war.

Leo Hosen, the Abyss God, has led his brethren into the heart of the undead army.

They all opened their respective natal magic books, wielded their respective Libra Cross greatswords, and fought side by side.

With their physical advantages as members of the Abyss God race, they slaughtered with unparalleled ease. Yet, just like all the soldiers of the Kingdom of Ross behind them, all their attacks were like throwing mud into the sea.

Sure enough, in just ten minutes, the more than three thousand Abyss Gods present had only advanced about five hundred meters.

"The evil witch Karen Elf and Lorina Yuffie are probably more than 20 kilometers away. At this speed, it may take us more than six hours to get there."

Leo made a judgment: at this moment, not only him, but also the other Abyss Gods had already used their own professional artifacts.

Of course, since the nature of the Abyss Gods is similar to that of witches, their innate magic book skills will also have a limited number of uses when they cannot reveal their true forms. Therefore, at this moment, without knowing the details of their opponents, they will not use their biggest trump card to clear out the undead creatures in this vast area.

That's why such a conservative approach was chosen.

However, these abyssal gods have gradually realized that the other side will not let them have their way so easily.

Sure enough, in the area at the very front, more powerful creatures such as liches have begun to appear one after another. These tall, rotting creatures have begun to give all the abyssal gods present a strange sense of dread.

"There might be even stronger beings lurking in this Sea of ​​the Dead, trying to launch a sneak attack on us."

Since the scouting interface of the natal magic book can only identify monsters, but not undead, they still have to rely more on their own intuition to judge whether the surroundings are dangerous.

Currently, almost all warrior-type Abyss Gods have maximized the effectiveness of their "Mind's Eye" ability, reaching an unprecedented level of vigilance.

"Everyone, advance back to back, and be fully alert to your surroundings!"

Soon, this Abyss God race, numbering over three thousand, began to divide into smaller groups of about twenty people each, and officially began their southward march.

Then, the demigods and even gods from the Kingdom of Ross began to use magic to clear a path for them, removing all obstacles in the area and greatly reducing their pressure.

From this moment on, all the Abyss Gods began to fully utilize the effects of their usual training, advancing at their current fastest speed.

Four hours later, in areas where the powerful forces of the Kingdom of Ross could no longer provide support, the terrifying Sea of ​​the Dead changed once again, launching a frenzied attack on them.

“Ann Gnath previously mentioned that the other side also has a powerful witch, Della Bertie, who is a sharpshooter.”

Everyone already knows how to counter a witch who is also a sharpshooter with superhuman vision.

A sniper duel at the middle gate!

Done!

Therefore, when he judged that the distance was about right, Leo Hossen began to give new instructions.

"By withstanding these guys' attacks and protecting the ranged attackers, the assassins can now operate independently..."

Everything is just like the early days of exploring online games, except this is reality, where death doesn't mean resurrection.

Furthermore, reality is not like a game where you can mindlessly throw out all your skills; doing things randomly can accidentally hurt your teammates.

If it weren't for the need to guard against the death tide, all the Abyss Gods would be fighting alone right now, and this close cooperation is a last resort.

Soon, all the Abyss Gods associated with ranged spellcaster classes like Sharpshooter activated skills similar to "Extreme Eagle Eye" under the cover of their teammates, attempting to track down the witches.

They were lucky, because at that moment, they did indeed catch a glimpse of the three witches.

Beneath that eerie golden sun, a silver-haired elf stood motionless, his face grave, occasionally seeming to be giving orders. Beside him stood a black-haired witch resembling a "Yamato Nadeshiko," wielding a strange, jet-black chain, summoning endless dark creatures before her—her identity was now clearly revealed.

Of course, what truly terrified them was the witch with long, crimson hair.

"Witch, Della Bertie, the sharpshooter!"

The moment they identified the witch, all the Abyss Gods who were archers witnessed her draw a Snow Feather Longbow, her blood-red beast eyes seemingly capturing all the Abyss Gods in an instant.

"Everyone! Prepare for battle!"

How fast can these powerful individuals act?

All the warrior-class Abyss Gods used their strongest defense to protect all the ranged Abyss Gods, and all the ranged Abyss Gods had raised their own class artifacts.

"This distance?"

Damn evil witch, do you have enough skills?

Chapter 53 Archer Class

Li Lan's 30,000 humanoid followers were all lying in wait amidst the raging tide of the undead army.

Before the Kingdom of Ross launches its trump card offensive, he does not intend to use this part of his main force prematurely and rashly expose his true strength.

Furthermore, since he can use the slime's long-range perception to contact these followers, he can be said to be aware of the entire battlefield situation.

For example, he had already learned from his followers that the Kingdom of Ross had sent more than three thousand Abyss Gods to crush him, Li Lan, but he had not yet witnessed the situation firsthand, so he could not draw any conclusions for the time being.

"Have they been divided into multiple groups and sent to thirty-two different locations?"

Li Lan had already noticed just a small movement from the Abyss Gods, and all their intentions had been captured by the Kingdom of Ross.

He wasn't discouraged by this. His enemies were never to be underestimated; who knew what methods or costs they might use to obtain the information they wanted in advance?

To be precise, Li Lan himself was also hoping that the Kingdom of Ross would know all of his positions in advance, and the fact that the other side was spreading its forces out was exactly what they wanted.

"The strength of the Abyss Gods should be beyond the norm, far greater than the current gods of this world."

After all, all the Abyss Gods were transmigrators, making them half-witches.

The only ones who can truly understand and precisely target each other are those who are like themselves.

"Right now, Lolina, Della, and I are facing the largest group of them. Due to our profession, we are actually the ones under the least pressure."

The one under the most pressure is probably the witch Violet's side, along with thirty special mechanic elves scattered along the border of the Kingdom of Rose, responsible for setting up restrictive barriers.

Upon realizing this, Li Lan quickly shared her thoughts with Luo Lina.

Soon, the majority of the followers, along with powerful undead creatures, began to provide strong support to the friendly forces scattered in various locations.

"The strongest army in the Kingdom of Ross is not only the Abyss Gods of the Chaos Order, but also the Ross royal family has not yet made a move."

Li Lan was very cautious, but he himself did not expect that the Kingdom of Ross was also very cautious.

Faced with an undead army as vast as the ocean, and with two special god-level domains suppressing the strength of most of the powerful individuals, preventing them from performing at their full potential, these individuals began to make conservative decisions and dared not fight with their backs against the wall.

The main force of the Kingdom of Rus is still doing its best to plug the only gap on the southern border, while other border areas are being reinforced with all its might to deal with the attack of the Death Tide at any time.

If Li Lan were on the side of the Kingdom of Ross, facing an endless horde of zombies, she would probably make a similar choice first, rather than mobilizing everyone to seek out the Summoner and perish together.

Everyone knows what would happen if a large army of undead broke through the defenses.

Unless absolutely necessary, sending out all your forces indiscriminately is definitely a bad strategy.

After Li Lan and the others had been waiting for several hours, suddenly, Della began to summon her own professional artifact and then took a few steps forward.

"Karen, Lorina, I'll be leaving for a bit while your attendants provide support."

Relying solely on ranged attacks is soulless and fails to leverage Della's greatest advantage in breaking the deadlock. "If possible, I hope you can help me gather them together."

"you mean......"

Li Lan didn't expect Della to be so reckless. Isn't this just like playing online games where you have to pull monsters?

Pulling monsters is a skill.

“In terms of ranged attacks, they have an absolute advantage. Neither you nor Lolina have the passive intuition of warriors, unlike me.”

Therefore, according to Della's understanding, the best course of action is close combat to overwhelm these Abyss Gods, rather than letting them build up positions and causing Li Lan and his team to eventually adopt a defensive posture.

At that time, it will be the same choice that the Kingdom of Ross is making now, which is tantamount to boiling a frog in lukewarm water, a slow suicide.

"Indeed, the Abyss Gods, who are ranged beings, are somewhat unsolvable for us."

The natural advantage of the marksman class is its extremely long-range vision and attack capabilities.

Not to mention that Li Lan's team has a sharpshooter-type witch that others are wary of, even if others have similar ones, it will put immense pressure on Li Lan and his team.

After all, for a witch to unleash god-level power, she basically has to rely on her own innate magic book, rather than the innate magic book of each profession, which can extend her reach to the point where she can rival a sharpshooter.

"coming!"

From that moment on, Della's blood-red beast eyes began to reflect many black-haired people. These people also had their own natal magic books and Libra Cross Greatswords, making their identities immediately apparent.

Watching them effortlessly repel the attacks of the entire undead army was enough to show just how powerful they were.

In an instant, both sides' sharpshooters had already spotted each other.

Without the slightest hesitation, both sides drew their bows in a flash, preparing to attack.

Della's side job is being a mad dog.

That's right, but what she's most proud of isn't just her close-combat skills that get stronger with each battle.

Even in ranged attacks, her strength surpasses that of most archer witches.
