At the same time as I was finally done with my two new pieces of equipment, the mighty roar of giant reptilian creatures that dwelled in the pools of lava echoed within the cave.
"ROOOOAARR!"
RUMBLE!
The pools shook, as from within them, several giant creatures crawled out from, swiftly noticing the presence of my Undead Army and all of us in here.
They were gigantic creatures, with seemingly draconic features, but being too monstrous to be actual dragons.
These were most likely dragon-type monsters!
[The Presence of your Undead Army has awakened the Guardians of the Underground Volcano.]
[The powerful [Underground Dwelling Volcanic Drakes (A+ Rank)] have begun to move out of their lava pools, seeking the ones that disrupted their slumber!]
[As they\'re powerful Drakes of the Volcanic Attribute, they thrive and grow stronger within this area, increasing their Stats by +100%.]
"Ah, there are a bunch of them!" Tear panicked slightly, glancing into the distance.
These Drakes resembled stegosaurus more than I could have imagined, with long necks and enormous sizes.
They were covered on crimson scales, with blazing rings made of flames circling their long necks and backs.
These creatures didn\'t look freed from the Miasma either, I could notice a few which had several black scales here and there.
And others looked completely pitch black, with larger, more muscular, and more threatening appearances as well, Demonite spikes growing on their backs and all.
There were at least a hundred coming our way, with many more emerging constantly from the magma pools.
"Alright everyone! Similar formation than before!" I roared, as my Undead kept surging from my Shadows, marching into large squadrons against the incoming foes.
This time there were a few hundred new recruits, including our previously fought monsters, such as giant mudskippers and crabs!
Aside from that, the Salt Golems also joined as Undead. If I was able to rise the Demonite Golems from the Elf Forest, then these guys were no problem either.
However, before the battle could even start, there was a slight problem.
"GROOOAARR!"
The Drakes began absorbing air and inflating their throats, which blazed with a bright red and orange color, before they released several fireballs of enormous sizes.
Each of these monsters was around thirty meters tall, and their fireballs were at least fifteen meters large too, based in the amount of flames they released.
BOOM! BOOM! BOOM! BOOM! BOOM!
A bombardment of countless flames started falling over my army, my zombies and skeletons burning and perishing one after another.
"I should had guessed they would do this…" I facepalmed. "Alright, [Umbral Void Barrier Shields]!"
FLAASH! FLAASH! FLAASH! FLAASH!
I designed a spell right in that moment, as dozens of shields crafted out of darkness and void essence emerged, blocking the fireballs in front of my army as they advanced.
However, the attacks were way too many, descending on all places, it was quite a hard to block them all.
"I guess I\'ll have to eat the loses for now." I sighed. "I still got many corpses to turn into Undead for later anyways, and these big guys will surely become some new allies!"
And naturally, I had some use for the corpses, which I quickly imbued with my Shadows and moved as if it were through telekinesis.
I dropped them right over the monsters, who glanced at the burnt corpses with confusion in their eyes.
"[Undead Detonation]"
FLAASH! FLAASH! FLAASH! FLAASH!
With a single activation of my Skill, these corpses swiftly glowed with bright red and orange light, detonating into wide explosions of phantasmal flames, death, void, and even moonlight.
To add things to the damage dealt, thanks to my [Explosion Maniac] Title, there was a chance for each explosion I provoked using Undead Detonation to create a chain reaction.
BOOOM! BOOOM! BOOOM! BOOOM! BOOOM! BOOOM!
Naturally, even more explosions covered the entire landscape, the monsters were incredibly tough, tanking dozens of explosions, but many ultimately fell anyways due to the severe accumulated damage.
As the accumulated damage became deadly, the weakened monsters were swiftly overwhelmed by my Undead, that ganged on them using their wide numbers.
At the same time, the rest of my team mobilized. There were so many targets, and the landscape was so wide that even our strongest members had some time to shine too and let out some steam.
The young trainees attacked the monsters that were weakened, targeting their wounds. Fabian and his team had grown much more versatile and stronger as they learned how to conjure Spells from Emeraldine and myself, and also how to use Techniques and manipulate Ki from Jonathan.
This combined with the top-notch armor, necklace, and weapons I provided, made them for incredibly efficient hunters, even when they were fighting A+ Rank Monsters several times their own strength.
Celes and Nia in specific were shaping themselves to become incredible fighters, even the little Celes had become amazingly more proficient with his magic, now naturally channeling it with ease after Emeraldine opened his Mana Circuits and Jonathan helped him awaken his Meridians and Ki.
He conjured several lightning-imbued spears of spiraling water, frozen spears of frost water, and also conjured healing and buffing spells.
His magic was one of the most effective ones against these fire-attribute monsters, and the little boy had become a serious threat, even more as he continued improving his magic and discovering more of his natural abilities, inherited from his unique reincarnated soul.
Meanwhile, his mother Nia, was becoming amazing, further improving herself as she recalled what she was taught by her late husband. Her Wind Attribute Magic had given a great leap in strength, and now combined with her lightning spear, better armor, and a necklace that boosted her magic even further beyond, she was summoning literal thunderstorms and windstorms with each of her blows.
Both have been leveling up a lot. Because they were humans though, they didn\'t seem to be capable of evolving, but with my Saintess Blessing, their small Level Caps were being unlocked as they hit them, leveling frantically.
"ROOOOAAARR!"
RUMBLE!
However, not everything was fine and dandy, as three ginormous figures surged from the largest pools of lava.
They were three Bosses…
All S Rank!
