The Necromancer's Fourth Catastrophe-Chapter 275: Any Surprises? (Second Update)

After listening to Ored’s words, Rukaini’s face grew increasingly sullen.

At this moment, she turned her gaze to the fox-eared girl beside her: "Sarlin, why aren’t you speaking?"

This fox-eared girl was wearing a pitch-black long dress, with a mask half-covering her face, concealing the upper half.

Only the area below her nose was exposed.

Upon hearing Rukaini’s inquiry, Sarlin’s full red lips slightly parted: "Didn’t you hear Ored’s words? We don’t have any chance of escaping."

"Also, I can’t abandon my clansmen here and flee alone. We’ve lived here for so many years, never encountering any accidents."

"Now suddenly, so many top-tier entities are coming towards us here, I truly don’t understand."

"No matter how incomprehensible it is, there’s currently only one way out, and that is to fight."

Rukaini slightly clenched her fists upon hearing Sarlin’s words: "But you must understand that there are only three top-tier powers here, you, me, and Ored."

"Facing 64 top-tier entities, can you tell me how to fight?"

"Damn it, why not wait a little longer? Just wait for at most two months, and you and I could break through to the Epic Tier."

Sarlin gently shook her head upon hearing Rukaini’s words: "This world is full of surprises; how can everything go according to our heart’s desires?"

"If everything went according to our heart’s desires, without any surprises, we wouldn’t have led our clansmen to escape here in the first place."

Rukaini’s face turned even darker upon hearing Sarlin’s words: "Enough, Sarlin, don’t bring up the past; I don’t want to hear it."

"At this point, it seems there’s indeed no solution, so let’s prepare for battle. I’ll first use Wood Magic to probe who these guys are."

After her words fell, Rukaini gently closed her eyes and placed her palm on a nearby tree.

Soon, Rukaini reopened her eyes, showing a trace of despair: "Damn it, Undead Creatures? How could it be Undead Creatures? How could there be so many top-tier advanced Undead Creatures?"

"64 top-tier high-level Undead Creatures, meaning there must be at least seven top-tier Necromancers behind them?"

"And, many of the magic for summoning Undead Creatures by contract has long disappeared into history’s depths, yet now they’re summoned again?"

"Could it be that a bunch of Necromancers have banded together and risen up?"

"But each Necromancer is eccentric in nature, how could they band together? This is truly incredible..."

"And what exactly are the forces led by the Bright Church Country that focus on striking Dark Magic doing? Where is their role?"

Seeing Rukaini’s distressed demeanor, Ored and Sarlin beside her also had their expressions change slightly.

They truly didn’t expect that their island would be attacked by a group of Undead Creatures.

And just as Rukaini said, this is truly incredible, completely defying common sense.

Under her mask, Sarlin’s eyes flickered slightly, then she spoke up, saying: "Originally, I was thinking about whether, after the battle, we could talk with the other side, maybe make a deal to spare us. But now... prepare for a last stand..."

They had never fought with Necromancers before, but the rumors about Necromancers describe them as utterly vicious beings.

The rumor goes that when Necromancers strike, there are no survivors left, and they desecrate the corpses of those they kill.

So in their view, there’s no turning point in the matter anymore.

Rukaini reached out to cover her forehead, her emotions on the verge of collapse: "Why? Just a little more time, and we would break through to the Epic Level."

"At that time, even in the Chaotic Sea Domain, we’d be a force to be reckoned with, perhaps even able to find a better place for our clansmen, but now we suddenly face this kind of crisis..."

Sarlin also had a look of despair, but she still reached out to pat Rukaini’s shoulder, then offered comforting words: "Alright, Rukaini, being sad won’t solve anything now. All we can do is fight to the death; facing Undead Creatures, what good outcome can there be?"

Rukaini slightly gritted her teeth: "Fine, then a last stand; at least, let’s take a few down with us..."

"Our combat power here is at a disadvantage, with no chance of winning, so why not take the initiative to attack."

"Since they’re divided into several groups, let’s concentrate our attack on one area, hoping to take a few along in our final moments."

Sarlin nodded slightly: "Which side?"

Rukaini looked to the west: "The west... I’ll stay here with the others; I’ll use War Tree Man to support you, while you go to attack."

The War Tree Man, as part of the Elf’s series magic, was once leaked by a defected Epic-level Elf.

The War Tree Man magic from Basic Level to Epic Level isn’t hard to obtain; one can purchase it on the black market if willing to spend some money.

Upon hearing Rukaini’s words, Sarlin then gathered the Southern Beastmen on the island.

Letting the other Mages and Knights, as well as ordinary clansmen, stay where they were, along with Rukaini.

Sarlin and Ored headed toward the west together.

If it were a one-on-one top-tier fight, High-tier Knights and Mages could interfere, and if numerous, they could have a significant impact.

But a large number of top-tier versus top-tier battles aren’t something High-tier can interfere in, unless the number of High-tier entities is extraordinarily high.

Unfortunately, their clansmen don’t have many High-tier entities; if they joined, it would only be a hindrance, making it difficult for them to act, having to care for these clansmen.

Therefore, it is better to leave them with Rukaini instead of becoming a drag.

This way, the two of them can take the initiative and unleash their full potential.

After all, the outcome is already predetermined; there’s no chance of escape.

So why not give the opponent a hard blow in the best possible way.

On the island’s west side.

This group of players was led by Wangzai Little Buns.

Among the eight players, aside from six who were members of her Snowgaze Corps, there was also a Legion Commander from the Nightmare Beast Corps, Wipe Your Mouth and Run.

Wangzai Little Buns looked at the dense primordial forest on the distant island, then said: "Wait, let’s wait for the air preparation group of players to be ready."

After all, they have already blocked here, so no creature on the island could escape from them, so there’s no rush.

Before long, the air preparation group of players was in position.

Seeing this, Wangzai Little Buns waved her hand: "Alright, let’s head in; I wonder if there will be any surprises."
