BXBX NOVEL Chapter 444 Against An Army Of Furious Monsters!
-----
The figures that approached us seemed to be emerging out of thin air, but they were actually coming from underground, it was a massive group of over fifty moles the size of cars, probably the biggest one reaching as big as three meters. Not only their size was absolutely monstrous, but they also packed gigantic claws they used to dig underground, and big star-shaped snouts that seemed to help them guide themselves even if they looked blind.
"GRUOOH!"
CLASH!
One of them immediately reached us in an instant, clashing over the floor right before us and shaking the earth. Cracks began to appear across the ground as the floor was just about the crumble!

[Giant Death Mole: Lv48] [Rank: B-] [Status: Hungry]
A monstrous mole from the first floors of the Dungeon. It appears in groups of almost a hundred, and they are vicious creatures capable of easily digging underground, conjure Earth Magic of high level, and provoke powerful and devastating earthquakes with their body size and weight.
They lack eyesight but use their star-shaped noses to guide themselves even when not being underground. Their enormous claws are not only able to wonderfully dig underground but can also slice apart their prey quite easily.
Skills: [High Speed Digging] [Deadly Claws] [Spinning Attack] [Earthquake] [Seismic Wave] [Pitfall] [Slashing Attack] [Stone Blast]

"Careful! They\'re B- Rank!" I said, as the dwarves quickly roared, getting into a position where they got up together and formed a congregation of shields with their weapons out.
"GRUOH!"
CLASH!
Another mole emerged underground and attempted to clash against them, but their combined tactics worked, as the mole\'s claws ended being blocked by the dwarfs\' combined shields, just before the creature was attacked with several weapon techniques unleashed at once.
"RAAAAHH!"
CLASH! CLASH! CLASH!
"GRUOOOHH…"
BAAM!
The mole\'s entire body was suddenly covered on wounds, as it struggled to get back up.
"G-GROHHHH…!"
"B- Rank, huh? You could easily kill one of us alone, but if we are together, we are stronger!" Helga roared, jumping over the shields of her comrades, and raising her hammer, falling down over the mole like a meteor and crushing the beast\'s head with the might of a dwarven mother!
"Skull Cracker!"
CLAAASH!
The mole\'s head was easily cracked and splattered over the floor by the enormous weigh and might of Helga\'s hammer.
However, it was too early to call it a victory, as dozens of Moles began to emerge from underground, surrounding us. And from behind them, there were even more moles!
"Just how many are there?!" Lucifer roared, as he confronted three himself, transforming into his dragon form as every dwarf here had already see his form already, and using his claws and tail to attack them.
CLASH! CLASH! CLASH!
However, the three moles resisted his physical attacks by using their gigantic claws as shields, and barely managed to come out of his blows unscathed.
"Hmph, rats!" Lucifer roared furiously, as his claws suddenly flared with phantasmal flames.
CLASH! CLASH! CLAAASH!
Once more, he hit the three Moles with all his strength, this time, their claws were unable to resist the blows completely, as their entire bodies were also caught in the fire of the phantasmal flames covering Lucifer\'s claws.
With their claws shattered and their bodies burning, the giant moles perished almost on the spot. Giving Lucifer the time to fight even more incoming beasts.
Meanwhile, the rest of my Undead led by the powerful Gero fought bravely. Gero unleashed his Domain of Venom as he poisoned many Moles, weakening them in the process the moment they stepped into his domain, giving the time for the other undead who were weaker to fight back, using their bodies or the weapons they held to fight. Some moles quickly began to perish as they were ganged over with old rusty weapons held by the human skeletons and zombies and the claws and fangs of the undead monsters.
However, many of my Undead were easily getting demolished as well. The moles were mightily strong, using their claws to easily tear apart my giant spider zombies, the miasmic bugs, and the skeletons and zombies from soldiers I had once defeated in the past. Maybe if I brought the Vampire Zombies led by that Werewolf, it could had been different, but this was all we had anyways.
Well, it wasn\'t as if there weren\'t any materials readily available for me to use…
"Let\'s do some basic Undead Raising then, boys! [Transfiguration of Death]!"
FLAAASH!
A wave of phantasmal essence was unleashed from my hands as I watched the scene with a smile, the lying bodies of the moles quickly began to move once more, as their souls were forcefully put back to their bodies at random, forcing them to raise and move once more even after death.
[Transfiguration of Death] was the awakened version of [Fake Life] which packed even stronger power, as it granted raised Undead extra power and skills, and even a higher power than their original living selves if they were weaker than C Rank monsters. Of course, the moles were B-, but even if raised as they were, they were pretty strong.
"Now go and catch your kin! Make sure to not leave any alive!"
With a dozen Moles at my disposal, I immediately ordered them to dig underground and create traps for the other living moles, while also intercepting them underground so they wouldn\'t surprise us with attacks below our feet.
"And the rest… [Undead Healing]!"
FLAAASH!
Another wave of phantasmal essence flew away as it caught all of my defeated Undead, their shattered bodies quickly stitched back together as they were fully recovered to how they looked before getting destroyed. My MP was getting drained quickly, but thanks to [Ultimate Skill: Yog-Sothoth], I was able to easily drain MP from the monsters surrounding us.
"March forward!"
As the undead continued fighting and getting destroyed, I continued healing them back up over and over again, as the Moles numbers seemed to have no end, I joined the fight by firing projectiles from afar, snipping the incoming beasts and stopping them from flooding us completely.
