Epic of Ice Dragon: Reborn As An Ice Dragon With A System-Chapter 1654 The Dragon King Is A Necromancer
-----
BAAAM!
Drake's army of Undead clashed against Pandemonium's Demons. The territory that belonged to Surtr, which they had decided to attack first as it was much weaker against the demons' flames, was quickly covered by countless graveyards and a deadly phantasmal mist.
When Pandemonium celebrated and laughed at the "weak" beasts for having been easily slain so easily, he was quickly shocked to find them rising back from the dead. This was nothing else than the power of Drake's {Death Awakening} and {Divine Dracolich Phantom Graveyard} acting together.
Drake could expand both powers as an invisible domain and apply in which areas he wanted them to take effect. Easily, he was able to expand the Domains and combine them together where the Divine Monsters and Demonic Beasts had died.
Swiftly, they began rising back from the dead, their torn apart, burnt, shredded bodies unifying together. Some even growing into giant bone Dracoliches, absorbing countless bones surging from the ground, next to the many graveyards.
"W-What is this sorcery? He's rising the dead back to life?!"
"What am I seeing?"
"Lord Pandemonium, even after we killed them, they're coming back!"
Not even the Demons understood this power properly, even with their collective knowledge inherited from Legion, the Will of Hell, they had no such data of beings that rose back from the dead. Pandemonium was furious, smiling defiantly at such an act.
"Hah… HAHAHA! What are you waiting for, you utter fools?! Fight!" roared the mad demon. "It doesn't matter if they rise back, trash will always be trash! Crush and Burn them until there's not even ashes left!"
Their King gave a command, and the demons charged back, they didn't let these petty tricks intimidate them. Giant Demons resembling muscular red-skinned and blue-skinned Oni roared, swinging their massive arms against the Undead.
Both rise Undead and the Dracoliches created from Drake's Skills rushed in front of the arms, clashing against them together.
CLAASH!
"Ngh?!"
The Oni gasped in disbelief as he saw his arms being stopped by two Dracoliches, while a third Undead Frost Hydra opened its countless jaws, biting through his entire face and tearing his flesh apart.
"Uuaaaggh!"
The giant stepped back in agony before the two Dracoliches used their sharp claws to tear his enormous arms, opening their jaws and releasing explosions of accursed phantasmal flames, countless explosions bombarded over the giant.
BOOM! BOOM! BOOM!
The Oni tried to fight back, swinging his arms and releasing a storm of demonic flames from his mouth, but the Undead were protected by a strange Demonic Aura, a veil of strength and power that Drake had conjured using his Demonic Physique abilities.
The damage they took from demon-attribute attacks decreased, and that coupled with all the stat boosts they received, making them over ten times as strong as their living forms, made them capable of resisting the damage.
And not only that!
"ROOOAAR!"
A third Dracolich roared, falling from the skies and slamming the Oni's head into the ground, a loud thud made the entire surroundings tremble.
BAAAM!
"W-What- AARGHH…!"
The Oni screamed in agony before the other Undead started tearing his body apart and… Eat him! The Demons all watched in disbelief, beings of tremendous powers, whose physical compositions were simply on another level completely, tougher than the toughest of demonic monsters, beings that even Gods could not easily defeat unless they were Rank 10 and above.
They were being eaten! The same scene could be seen across the entire forest. The Demons and the Demonic Beasts were completely stopped from their charge, as the Undead started ravaging their numbers one after another. Of course, a single demon or demonic beast was still very strong, but when they were ganged against by many Undead, they were unable to respond in time.
And died, over and over and over again!
"W-What is the meaning of this?!" Pandemonium slammed his castle's floor. "Y-You damned weaklings! How come you're losing?!"
Pandemonium's eyes widened in both shock and anger. Many demons were beginning to die, but the Undead were also being constantly crushed. However, even then, he couldn't accept that.
He was furious that there was a stalemate instead of just totally crushing his foes!
"Back then, you bastards somehow survived twice against my Demons, but I imagined you did by barely surviving…" He muttered. "Yet now you're just using disposable beasts to take care of them?!"
He cursed himself for being in his current state. The limits of Pandemonium's summons were based on his body parts. Currently, with only eight body parts, he could only summon this level of demons or demonic beasts.
Undead and Demons clashed against one another in a never-ending battle, the forests of Surtr were kept unharmed, and the deserts of Drake were also being quite useful, making the demons constantly trip on themselves or fall into pitfalls he purposely set up using his Earth Magic.
"I'm grateful to the Earth Dragons for giving me their bloodline, because even at its low level, I can already do this much!"
RUMBLE!
The sands trembled, as Drake used his Divinity of Golden Sands and his Earth Dragon Bloodline power combined together, swirling sandstorms engulfed the army of demons, blinding their sight and constantly pulling them into gigantic holes.
"The desert was never really a bad terrain for me…" Drake smiled. "I can adapt to just anything! Now, attack them!"
Drake commanded his troops, Divine Origin Flame Beasts brought by Surtr jumped over the Demons and Demonic Beasts that were trapped in the swirling sands.
Their blazing claws imbued with the holiest of fire burned through their bodies, slashing apart them limb after limb.
The demons fought back even in this situation, splashing their acidic blood at their foes from their wounds, and killing a few of them like that.
They also conjured as much magic as possible, storms of demonic flames clashed against origin flames.
The Origin Flame Divine Beasts were dying as much as the Demons… Yet with Drake here, their death was not quite the end.
"Arise, my army! Death is not the end for you!"
The corpses began rising, encompassed by phantasmal energies, their bodies rose again, some transforming into Dracoliches even.
"ROOOAAAR!"
Almost an hour has passed since the First Trial began.
