Era of Castles: Starting with 99 Dragon Eggs Novel - Chapter 43

Chapter 43: Monsters Attack! Undead Creatures!

The world announcements in the world chat changed as well.

[World announcement: The novice protection period is over, the protective shield will disappear, and the Beast Tide will attack!!]

At this time, countless people were still talking in the world chat.

[It’s almost time, the power of the castle’s protective shield is gradually disappearing!]

[Even the world announcement is reminding us!]

[F*ck! I’m not ready yet!]

[The Castle Lord who came out with high-level and top-tier troops, who is ready? If you want to survive, then go all out!]

[That’s easy to say. There are at least a hundred wild monsters outside my castle. Once the protective shield is gone, they will definitely charge in! My castle’s troops are low-level kobolds. The weaker ones won’t be able to withstand it at all!]

[Not to mention that they won’t be able to stop them…]

[If they can’t even stop these wild monsters, how are they going to stop the Beast Tide? How are they going to attack the local forces?]

[At least, you still have your soldiers! My soldiers met with an accident the day before yesterday, and 90% of them died! My only way now is to retreat to the castle gate and try to rely on the narrow space to prevent the wild monsters from charging into the castle and destroying the heart of the castle!]

[Brothers, hold on!]

[Sigh, everyone’s situation is not optimistic! It’s almost daytime now, Hold on!!]

[Those wild monsters are very strange as if they can sense that our protective barrier is about to disappear, and are gathering.]

[There are already wild monsters charging at the protective barrier.]

[Damn it!!]

[Brothers and sisters, take care of yourselves! There are still three minutes left. I’m ready to fight to the death with the wild monsters!]

[I hope we can meet again tomorrow!!]

[Sob sob! I don’t want to die!!]

[Who wants to die? Everyone wants to live well in this otherworld!]

[Take care of yourselves!]

…

The world chat channel quickly went silent.

The battle was about to start, and no one had the mood to chat.

Mike also closed the world chat channel and looked outside the castle.

The dense forest covered by the light of the blood moon was dark and horrifying.

In the dense forest, the shadows were staggered.

Countless green eyes were like stars in the dark night, flickering and disappearing.

Like the other Castle Lords, his castle was also surrounded by wild monsters.

Moreover, many wild monsters were hitting the protective shield, as if they really knew that the protective shield was about to disappear.

The dense forest was shaking.

The roars of the monsters were like dense drums.

It indicated that a feast of slaughter was about to begin.

The distant horizon was also emitting a ray of white light.

It seemed that it would not be long before the daybreak, and the wild monsters’ berserk state would also disappear.

But now…

“It’s time!”

The castle’s protective shield began to tremble violently, and the light became dimmer.

Mike did not hesitate.

He put on high-grade armor.

This was a defensive armor tailor-made for him by the little loli from the underground world. Its defensive power was naturally very strong, and it could protect his own safety.

At the same time, a sharp sword appeared in his hand.

This sharp sword was also a high-level offensive weapon made for him by the little loli from the underground world.

Everything was ready!

Even Tyrell and the others led the earth dragon team to prepare a defensive formation.

Mike pointed his sword at the monsters in the wild outside the castle and said expressionlessly, “kill them all!!”

“Yes, my Lord!”

Tyrell and the others shouted in unison.

In an instant, they flapped their huge wings and flew out of the castle towards the monsters in the wild.

Tyrell spat out a dark green ball of venom while Barr spat out a huge ball of pitch-black fire.

Alan and Gail also released powerful magic energy one after another.

The other earth dragons also released their ‘ultimate skills’ one by one.

Instantly, dazzling balls flew towards the monsters in the wild.

Under the dazzling light, all the monsters hidden in the jungle were forced to reveal themselves.

Bang! Bang! Bang!

Loud explosions sounded in quick succession, and some of the weaker monsters in the wild were immediately turned into ashes.

The camp of the monsters in the wild immediately began to fall into chaos.

However, they were still under the influence of the blood moon and were still in their berserk state, so they did not retreat.

At this time.

Miserable howls could be heard among the monsters.

Mike looked up and saw that this wave of attacks from Tyrell and the others.

Had instantly cleared out quite a number of wild monsters.

However, Mike also discovered a few ghouls of the undead type.

One was a tier 5 elite, and three were tier 4 lesser elites.

After being attacked by Barr’s fireball, their bodies were covered in pitch-black flames. There was also black smoke, and they were rolling on the ground in extreme pain.

Barr was also a dark type. The fireballs he spat out were not ordinary fireballs.

Instead, they carried evil magic attacks.

The elemental energy contained within them also had a certain degree of lethality against the undead.

In addition, Barr’s rank had already reached the peak of tier 6, so the energy contained within the fireballs he released was even stronger.

These few ghouls, whose highest rank was only tier 5, naturally could not withstand it.

They fell to the ground, rolling and struggling with all their might.

They wanted to get rid of the pitch-black flames on their bodies.

However, this was obviously meaningless.

The flames were still burning on their bodies.

Sizzling sounds could be heard on their skin, and black smoke was also being emitted.

Soon, a few ghouls stopped struggling.

Their bodies were completely burned by the flames. Even their soul flames were extinguished by the flames.

Undead creatures could be resurrected with soul flames and some special undead materials.

However, facing Mike’s dragon…

Undead-type creatures were no different from monsters in the wild.

In fact, they died even faster!

“Even undead-type ghouls have appeared!”

“This is really the first time!”

It was the first time Mike had encountered an undead-type creature since he descended.

Generally speaking.

Undead-type creatures mostly appeared in places like cemeteries and graveyards.

In these places, the aura of the undead was thick, and it was easiest to give birth to undead creatures.

In addition, the underground world could also be considered a base camp for undead creatures.

However, the silent forest was mainly made up of wild monsters like beasts and birds. The local forces were mostly intelligent creatures like goblins, goblins, and two-headed demons that were half evil and half neutral.

Undead-type creatures were not common.

“It must be related to the Holy Dragon Palace!”

Mike had some speculations.

The Holy Dragon Palace had a friendly value between light and dark evil creatures. It was also attractive to undead creatures.

Therefore, these ghouls should have been attracted by the Holy Dragon Palace.

However, they did not expect to be burned by Barr’s fireball.
