Another World’s Versatile Crafting Master - Chapter 943

Chapter 943: Individual Power

Of course, while feeling a bit dejected, Jeremiah also felt thankful for the fact that he had not provoked the Tower of Dusk’s team or told his Holy Light Knights to spar with them. Otherwise, he would have embarrassed himself greatly.

However, as the battle continued, the members of the teams of the Brilliance Shrine and Rotterdam Kingdom were all extremely shocked.

Connoris wielded his Eternal Frost Blade effortlessly, and a large sword light arc appeared in front of the army of Undead creatures. As the sword light flashed, countless Undead creatures were slashed at the waist like crops that were being reaped. They could not resist at all.

Master Basel raised his scepter, and magic spells descended from the sky and blasted the Undead creatures, creating bare white areas. The Crimson Humerus Wyrm, the Lord of Nightmares, and the Demon Gordon were all summoned by Lin Li to join the battle too.

The ones fighting were a President who could easily kill an Elemental Dragon at the peak of the Legendary-realm, two Undead servants whose combat power was not inferior to Legendary powerhouses, Connoris, who was at the peak of the Legendary-level, the level-24 Master Basel, and, the level-23 Legendary powerhouses like the Crimson Humerus Wyrm, the Lord of Nightmares, and the Demon Gordon.

The teams of the Brilliance Shrine and the Rotterdam Kingdom were each led by just two Legendary powerhouses. However, the power displayed by the Tower of Dusk in this battle had clearly surpassed the two teams, and they even possessed an overwhelming advantage.

Archbishop Martin couldn’t help but sigh a little. He really had no idea how the Tower of Dusk operated. They actually managed to gain such terrifying power within such a short period of time. With such incredible strength, the Tower of Dusk was probably a top force in Anril now.

The Tower of Dusk exhibited powerful strength. Regardless of whether they were surprised or scrupulous, the people from the Brilliance Shrine and Rotterdam pinned all their hopes of solving the crisis at hand on the Tower of Dusk. They hoped that they could overcome the ordeal like they had during the battle with the Elemental Dragon previously.

However, as time passed, not only did they not see a glimmer of hope, they even felt that their hope was getting farther and farther away from them. The Tower of Dusk was extremely strong and they had astonishing abilities. They were simply killing the Undead creatures one-sidedly. Even Humerus Wyrms could not escape the fate of being slaughtered. However, there were too many Undead creatures, and no one knew when they would stop coming. They only knew that ever since the beginning, the army of Undead creatures did not slow down for a moment at all.

If it was a Tide of Death was cast by a Necromancer, every Undead creature that was summoned would require a portion of mana from the Necromancer. Once the mana of the Necromancer was depleted, the Tide of Death would naturally end. However, the 36 Double-Realm Psychic Towers turned the entire space in the Sky Castle into a projection of the world of the Undead creatures. The Undead creatures were truly infinite. Under that premise, no matter how many Undead creatures were destroyed, there would be no change to the current situation.

However, the expedition could not afford to keep up with it, while the Undead creatures could afford to suffer a huge number of casualties. After all, the mana of mages was not infinite, and the priests would run out of Power of Light too. The Sword Sages would be exhausted as well. The Alchemy Colossuses similarly had to be powered by magical crystals.

The mages of the Tower of Dusk were each wearing their top-grade magical equipment that could greatly increase the recovery speed of the mana of the mages. However, the recovery could only be performed by absorbing plenty of magical elements from the surrounding space in order for them to be converted into mana that the mages needed.

However, the space that they were in had become a projection of the world of the Undead. Apart from the intense death aura, there were no other elements at all. Under such circumstances, even if one possessed excellent magical equipment, they would not be able to exert one percent of their usual power.

The mages of the Tower of Dusk soon discovered that issue, and changed their tactics. They stopped attacking the army of Undead creatures with their magic storm, and instead placed the army of Undead creatures in front of them before using precision strikes to improve the utilization of mana. However, that method actually did not solve the root cause of the problem. Although the usage of mana had become much more reasonable, there would still be a time when the mana ran out since they were facing an infinite amount of Undead creatures.

Actually, the situation on the Tower of Dusk’s side was not too bad. The people of the Rotterdam had already replaced the magical crystals of the Alchemy Colossuses several times before, and were running out of magical crystals. The priests and knights of the Brilliance Shrine had begun using potions to replenish their own power. However, to put it bluntly, no amount of potions would be enough, as they would just allow them to barely survive.

Compared to the previous battle with the Elemental Dragon, the current battle with the Undead creatures wasn’t really considered thrilling. The Undead creatures were continuously surging towards them. The three teams seemed to be effortlessly destroying the Undead creatures and repeating the process continuously. However, that was what made them feel even more hopeless, and they were on the verge of losing their minds—no matter how many Undead creatures they destroyed, it would not be of any help.

That was the battle tactic of the Necromancer. It was simple yet extremely shameless. It was just like using water to grind away the edges of a stone. He used the Undead creatures with infinite combat power to suffocate his opponents to the point of death by exhaustion.

“President Felic, Master Donald, we must hurry and think of a solution. If this goes on, sooner or later we’ll be worn to death by this group of Undead creatures.” Considering that the relationship between the Tower of Dusk and the Rotterdam Kingdom was strained, Archbishop Martin, the middleman who facilitated the cooperation, decided to step in and say something.

Soon, Lin Li and Donald each left their own teams and arrived at the spot where the team from the Brilliance Shrine was. Even though the situation had reached this point, Lin Li still had a calm expression. He could just use the control crystal and leave with his underlings. There was nothing too hopeless about it. However, Donald’s face was extremely sullen. The situation of their team was much tougher than the Brilliance Shrine’s. Besides, unlike Lin Li, they did not have a backup solution.

“These Undead creatures can never be destroyed completely. The root cause of the problem is still those 36 Double-Realm Psychic Towers. We have to think of a way to destroy those towers, otherwise it’d be useless no matter how many Undead creatures we destroy.” Actually, everyone was well aware of the problem that Donald mentioned. However, it was one thing to know the issue, and another to solve it.

“Indeed, the only way to break through this space is by destroying those Double-Realm Psychic Towers. However, with our current strength, we probably won’t be able to afford to shelve out sufficient numbers to do it. If the amount of powerhouses we send out is too small, we won’t be able to complete the task. If the force we dispatch is too strong, the ones remaining here probably won’t be able to resist these Undead creatures…” Archbishop Martin said helplessly with a frown. Now that they were faced with a dilemma, he could not think of a solution.

Although he knew that the fundamental problem was those Double-Realm Psychic Towers, they were not meant to be destroyed. Every tower had to be supported by a powerful Necromancer.

If they were in any other environment, Archbishop Martin, Donald, and the rest would not feel conflicted as long as there were no Necromancers in the Sanctuary-realm. However, with the help of the Double-Realm Psychic Towers, even level-20 Necromancers would have their combat power increased to the peak of the Legendary-level. Their vitality would be extremely strong, and they would become nearly immortal, making them become difficult opponents.

Now that they were facing the oppression of the army of Undead creatures, the teams of the three forces were already doing their best to resist. How could they have the spare energy to destroy the towers? Just like what Archbishop Martin had said, dispatching an insufficiently strong force would make it impossible for them to achieve the goal at all, but if they were to send out more powerhouses, the remaining forces wouldn’t be enough to slow down the infinite army of Undead creatures.

“How about this? I’ll deal with the Undead creatures while you destroy those towers.” Lin Li suddenly made an unexpected suggestion that made others feel like he was somewhat arrogant.

He was offering to deal with the entire army of Undead creatures alone. Didn’t that mean that he was trying to say that he was stronger than the three teams combined!? Upon hearing that suggestion, the first thing that Archbishop Martin and Donald thought was that Lin Li was out of his mind. However, thinking about how Lin Li had easily killed the Elemental Dragon and the numerous Ghost Mages previously, they felt that that did not seem to be something that someone at the peak of the Legendary-realm could do. Perhaps he could really resist the Undead creatures and help them buy some time to destroy the Double-Realm Psychic Towers.

“President Felic, will that not be… too difficult? Why don’t you let our teams do that while your team stays and helps you resist those Undead creatures together?” Archbishop Martin suggested, feeling a little worried. After all, Lin Li was the person Pope Rosario claimed was the Son of The Holy Light. If anything really went wrong with the Son of The Holy Light, no amount of treasures he obtained from the Sky Castle would be able to make up for the loss.

“No need, the key now is to concentrate the elite forces and break through this space. The longer we delay, the worse it will be for us.”

Lin Li was not a selfless person. However, if possible, he would not want to flee the Sky Castle just like that. After all, he and Highlord Osric had already formed a huge feud with each other. He did not want Osric to take control of the Sky Castle and look for him one day.

Archbishop Martin and Donald originally still had some doubts about Lin Li’s strength. However, at this moment, Lin Li pointed the Helios’ Scepter at the army of Undead creatures, after which countless burning meteors and huge chunks of ice whistled in the sky and fell on them. In an instant, the army of Undead creatures was split in two, and apart from the Undead creatures that had rushed closer to fight the three teams, a large empty spot appeared at the back. They could only see the army of Undead creatures pouring in from a spot that was further away.

“Hurry up,” Lin Li said to the two of them sternly without further explanations as he turned around.

Seeing that, Archbishop Martin and Donald were shocked, but they also finally gained some confidence in Lin Li’s strength. They both knew in their hearts that this might be their last chance, so neither of them paid any attention to Lin Li’s tone. Instead, they instantly ordered their teams to regroup and withdraw from the battle in front.

Likewise, the team from the Tower of Dusk had also received Lin Li’s orders and left Lin Li to fight at the frontline. After meeting up with the teams from the Brilliance Shrine and the Rotterdam Kingdom, they began retreating again. The Double-Realm Psychic Tower that was the closest to them was naturally the one they passed on their way here in the avenue square where they fought the Elemental Dragon.

However, their current path was not unobstructed, as it was already crowded with the Undead creatures that were pouring in. The three teams gathered all of their power, while the several Legendary powerhouses charged towards the Double-Realm Psychic Towers quickly without restraint.

After the three teams left, Lin Li was the only one left to face the Undead creatures. Although his strength had changed drastically after stepping into the Sanctuary-realm, it was still not an easy task to deal with such an endless army of Undead at this time.

Although Lin Li had wielded his Helios’ Scepter and destroyed countless Undead creatures, they were, in fact, just the cannon fodder of the army of Undead creatures. Perhaps it was because they had sensed the intentions of the expedition, but the Undead creatures that were surging in were no longer just the Skeletal Warriors that were used as cannon fodder. There were also many other high-level Undead creatures like the Skeletal Mages, the Vampires, Skeletal Beasts, and many others. The Legendary-level Undead creatures made up the majority. In fact, there were hundreds of Humerus Wyrms that tried to fly above Lin Li’s head in a bid to destroy the team aiming for the Double-Realm Psychic Towers.

However, even if those Humerus Wyrms did not attack him, Lin Li would not let them off. His current mission was not to destroy numerous Undead creatures, but to block them there so as to leave the expedition with no worries. Regardless of whether they were running on land or flying in the sky, he could not miss a single one.

That would be difficult. It was no longer a matter of strength. Even if he was a Sanctuary powerhouse, he was, after all, still alone.

Lin Li flew straight up into the air, and he had already put away the Helios’ Scepter, replacing it with Holy Light and Gloomy Dark, the two pieces of the debris of the stars. Facing the Humerus Wyrms that were trying to pass him, Lin Li activated the power of the debris of the stars, and Angels of Light and Dark immediately condensed in the sky. They were flapping their black and white wings, and holding various weapons such as spears and swords.

Ever since he had comprehended the killing move of the Light and Darkness Sword a long time ago, Lin Li had not used the Angels of Light and Dark. After all, in many high-level battles, the power of the Angels of Light and Dark was too weak. However, what Lin Li needed the most now was not concentrated power, but dispersed one. Only then could he truly cordon off the sky.

However, Lin Li had already stepped into the Sanctuary-realm, after all. He had experienced a huge qualitative change in his power. The Angels of Light and Dark that he had condensed were also vastly different in strength as compared to before. Each of them had reached level-20, and they had also become much more agile during battles. They were no longer as stiff as before.
