Global Awakening: Apocalypse Ender's Chronicle-Chapter 1065: Knight-Class Zombie Lord

Sylas appeared from behind, his dagger moved so fast as he activated his Assassinate Skill!

He struck into Cladron's exposed flank.

In the meantime, Taylor also charged forward with her steed and drove her sword into the gap! This happened so quickly as Stormbane just trampled all the lesser zombies that tried to block and swarm them!

The combined assault finally forced Cladron to stumble, its shield shattering into fragments. 𝙛𝓻𝒆𝓮𝒘𝙚𝙗𝒏𝙤𝙫𝓮𝒍.𝓬𝒐𝙢

But even then, the Lord did not fall. It roared, and Gravehelm's command rallied the horde tighter around it, Walkers forming a living wall to protect their master.

Shane drew Sylph's Whisper once more and elemental energy gathered around him...

"Focus fire!" he shouted.

Elandor raised his staff and used an Elven Spell!

"Mana Convergence!" Pure mana gathered and instead of powering himself, he used it to rain down bolts of Arcane Energy, striking the weakened Bulwark.

Roscoe's arrows followed, piercing through the Zombies while Earl's blade sliced all the Walker and Runner Zombies protecting the Zombie Lord!

Finally, under their combined assault, Cladron collapsed to its knees, its shield crumbling into rust. With one last roar, the Bulwark dissolved into ash, leaving only a one red crystal!

[ You have eliminated a Lord-Tier Zombie. ]

[ New Title Unlocked:

[ Additional Rewards: Gold Treasure Chest, 20,000 Experience Points, and Territory Key Fragment ]

But there was no time to celebrate. Ravens lowered its lance again while Gravehelm's aura thickened, and for some reason, more Zombie horde charged forward as if they were just spawning out of nowhere!

Shane was stunned as he realized this.

"What the—No wonder Travis failed… It feels like they can summon zombies out of thin air…"

***

Soon, Ravens the Charger lowered its lance again.

The weapon even seemed mystical as it unnatural energy gathered around it.

Then suddenly, its armored body blurred forward!

It was as if he used Armored Dash on his own! For its physique, it moved with a terrifying speed.

Even the ground cracked beneath its charge as lesser zombies scattered aside as if they knew to clear the path.

"Brace!" Shane shouted, raising Sylph's Whisper.

Taylor urged Stormbane forward, shield raised high.

The Iron Paladin met the charge head‑on!

Boom!

A powerful impact blasted as the lance clashed against steel.

The impact even thundered across the valley, forcing Stormbane to skid back several meters with its hooves carving trenches into the earth.

It was so powerful that they couldn't help but feel confused why it didn't use the technique when the other Zombie Lord was still alive!

However, there was no time to think about this.

Taylor gritted her teeth, her shield glowing faintly as she absorbed the force.

But Ravens was not stopping just yet!

It twisted its lance, trying to pierce past her guard!

"You're not doing that!"

Shinja surged in from the side, with another storm energy across his blade.

"Not with me here!" His strike slammed against the lance as lightning exploded outward.

The weapon shuddered as its tip was deflected just enough to miss Taylor's chest.

"Thanks!" Taylor shouted as she retreated for a bit.

If any other Survivor took that attack, they would definitely die. However, Taylor was a Legendary Recruit for a reason!

Meanwhile, Roscoe's arrows whistled through the mist, piercing Crawlers that tried to swarm the flank. Earl appeared from shadow, his blade flashing as he severed tendons of Runners that had slipped past the frontline.

At this point, Earl was more focused on stopping the advance of the numerous Runners rather than eliminating them…

Still, the horde pressed harder. Their numbers were getting a bit too overwhelming compared to their numbers.

Furthermore, Gravehelm's aura thickened, forcing Walkers into disciplined ranks.

"Acid!" Shane shouted as Spitters launched acid volleys in coordinated arcs, raining down on his group.

Once again, Serenya raised her staff, vines and roots moving to create barriers.

It happened so quickly and shielded the team before the rain of acid spit could touch them.

"Don't stop, everyone!"

Shane fired Sylph's Whisper, an arrow of ice streaking into Ravens' legs. Suddenly, frost exploded across its armor, slowing its movements.

This time, he didn't just rely on his Mythic Sword, he decided to use his recently looted Survivor Skill as well!

[ Ice Manipulation Skill Lv4: Allows the Survivor to generate and control ice within a limited radius. Can freeze water, create ice barriers, and preserve food. Costs 40 Spirit Points per use. ]

Of course, it wasn't very strong as he was only using it to preserve fish. However, it adds more energy to the Ice Element he just used.

"Now!" he shouted.

Just like that, Elandor lifted his staff, and cast a Spell…

"Arcane Bind!"

Chains of pure energy erupted from the ground, wrapping around Ravens' limbs.

The Charger roared, thrashing violently to release himself, but its strength was compromised under the combined restraint and attacks!

Brion seized the moment.

His polearm glowed as he prepared his devastating skill once again…

"I got a clear sight… Dragon Piercer!" He charged and the thrust aimed directly at Ravens' chest.

Boom!

The strike pierced through its armor, and the force was amplified by the skill's penetration. Ravens staggered, and its lance dropped as black matter spilled from the wound!

Taylor then urged Stormbane forward again with her sword glowing with holy light!

With a dash from the steed, Taylor drove her sword into the wound Brion had opened, forcing the Charger back!

Unfortunately, these Zombie Lords' regeneration was simply too fast…

To ensure its death, Sylas appeared from behind with his dagger!

"Assassinate!"

He struck into Ravens' exposed neck, the blade sinking deep. He wanted to cut off its head but the blade got stuck, and he had to retreat!

During this time, Shane had also been suppressing Gravehelm in order to stop it from helping Ravens… Seeing that the Zombie Lord was about to die, Shane drew Sylph's Whisper once more…

This time, he chose lightning!

The arrow streaked forward, piercing Ravens' skull.

[ You have eliminated a Lord‑Tier Zombie. ]
