"...."
Everyone fell into a state of stupor as no words come out of their throat and a deathly silence enveloped the whole room.
Lucas's single slash cleared almost every undead that stood on the path.
They looked at the scene which looked as if a crevice on the ground was formed in hell and its lava was crawling out along with the creatures of Netherworld.
Briana looked at Lucas's sharp gaze and thought 'There is no way a weakling can work as Princess servant. The rumours of him being weak were surely false and his strength had been underestimated .'
Wilson closed his mouth and shake his head to wake up from the stupor. He knew he can't lost in thoughts and admire Lucas's moves.
Though from inside he had been excited to see such a strong and worthy opponent, it was a pity, that he can't fight him here.
Lucas and Wilson ran toward the lich, the road ahead which had been blocked by the horde of undead was cleared away by Lucas's single slash of a sword but new undead was still crawling out
Lucas stayed ahead and slashed his sword at the undead that tried to get in his way and both of them appeared quite near the Lich.
While Lucas kept his guard and cleared the huge number of undead that tried to protect their master.
Wilson stomped on the ground and jumped over the sea of skeletons and as his momentum seems to fall, a block of huge ice appeared before him.
Wilson looked at it and landing on it, jumped again using the block as a foothold.
The block of ice was crushed by the impact of Wilson jumping.
Wilson appeared on top of the Lich and raised his greatsword, he descended onto the Lich to give a huge and mighty slash.
Wilson thought that it would be the end but alas.
TANG!
A metallic sound reverberated across the space and the great sword that was falling on Lich was stopped in the mid of its track.
A scythe and a hammer appeared out of nowhere and collided with the greatsword and blocked it from reaching the Lich.
Wilson's blow was packed with a strong force, even though his strike was blocked the impact didn't disappear and the platform cracked and the throne sank to the ground a little by the collision and a huge shockwave spread across the space which shook the ground.
Wilson was shocked by the sudden turn of events and before he could even retract his blade, a scythe and the axe slashed his greatsword.
Wilson pulled the hilt of his sword and raised the huge body of the greatsword to protect himself.
TANG!
Another metallic sound was heard and Wilson was blasted away by the strike and his body flew in the air towards Lucas.
Lucas's eyes narrowed as he saw Wilson's body flying towards him and he was caught up in a push or pull, to decide whether dodge him or try to catch him.
Finally, Lucas shook away his thought to dodge and raised his hand trying to minimise Wilson's momentum but Lucas was also blown away along with Wilson and their figure stopped a few distances before crashing against the wall.
Lucas pushed Wilson away who was on top of him and looked at the lich, a frown appeared on his face.
The situation which seems to be in their favour tilted to the Lich's side because of his two new summons.
Two new undead appeared bedside him, one seems to be in 5-Star and another in 4-Star.
They seemed to be different from the other summoned as both of them seemed to be well equipped with weapons and armour. The conditions of their weapons and armour were also in great shape which was in contrast to the rugged and broken weapons used by these minon skeletons.
Lucas's back was already drenched in sweat but what happened to them next, frightened him more.
The two figures started to blur giving a black smoke and disappeared along with many undead. Lucas looked around with surprise as he saw a significant decrease in the number of the undead army.
But this only heightened his fear of the upcoming turn of events.
Everyone present out there was slightly stunned and pondered what was going on when they felt a creepy feeling coming from the Lich, dark fumes started to appear as the Lich summoned another undead.
Lucas's eyeball widened and his heartbeat hastened as he felt the strength of the undead and he finally figure out what the Lich did.
The lich disposed off, the weaker ones while reducing the number that was wasting his mana, he summoned his strongest undead.
Everyone frowned and screamed at the same time cause they can see what kind of figure the summoned was.
"Death Knight."
No one had to see with for real to know what the undead was. It was wearing a full-body armour and had a huge sword on its waist and a shield in its hand.
Each of its weapons seems to be C-Ranked.
The death knight didn't seem to give his opponent a chance and took a step forward.
"Wilson get up and attack," Lucas yelled and activated the flash step and increase his speed to the limit but he was able to react barely in time as the image of the death knight blurred and appeared before Lucas and Wilson.
Lucas and Wilson slashed their swords at the incoming sword of the Death Knight.
A powerful shockwave spread and both Lucas and Wilson were blown away by the force of the strike and flew off in the air, crashing against the wall making a big hole.
Lucas felt as if his body crumbled and he felt a cracking sound and his body stuck to the wall.
Lucas tried to free himself and moved his body but he felt a pain in his gut and coughed blood and fell to the ground like a twig.
A terrifying pain assaulted him and his body wriggled as he felt the true horror of facing a real 5-Star.
Lucas turned his has to see Wilson who was already passed out by the blow.
Lucas tried to stand up but his chest felt heavy and he felt difficulty. in breathing.
"So, this is the true strength of 5-Star, just a simple clash and I am now at the end of the ropes," Lucas laughed bitterly.
He had a gut feeling that the Death Knight somehow went easy on them and could have killed them if wanted.
The Death Knight after blasting Lucas and Wilson rotated his head towards Briana and Lora.
A cracking sound was emitted when he turned his head which made Briana and Lora frightened.
Briana flinched, taking a step back and seeing the creepy Death Knight they almost screamed but she didn't lose her composure and cast Lightening Punishment.
Lora tried to stop her from doing so as Briana had already exhausted most of her mana.
A chain of lightning poured down on the Death Knight with a loud thundering sound.
Briana felt dizzy and her head started to ache and she felt nauseous and weak trying to maintain the spell.
The Death raised his shield to defend against the streaks of lightning pouring on him and the power of lightning started to hit him but his shield protected him from taking the damage.
Briana was unable to maintain the spell, the attack power of lightning decreased and the image of the death knight disappeared and he appeared before Lora and kicked her sending her flying.
Briana's face became pale and her body went limp seeing the scene and she falls to the ground after exhausting all her strength.
The Death Knight appeared before Briana and was about to hit her when he felt a sudden sense of crisis and jumped back.
As he landed on the ground, he saw a huge demonic beast before him which had a red aura around it that was glaring at him.
Lucas felt that he was lucky as no one saw him summoning the undead.
The death knight stared at the beast and charged toward it.
BANG!
The sharp bony claw of the demonic beast collided with the shield of the knight.
The ground beneath their feet was crushed and huge a cater was formed and both of them took a step back.
Lucas felt that both of their strength was similar but what made the difference was durability.
While the demonic beast undead was an old sack of bones. The Death Knight had its full body attached allowing him to have good durability and endurance.
Lucas ran toward the demonic undead calling him and jumped on his back and held a pointy bone on the back to get a firm stand on its back and looked coldly at the Death knight.
Lucas shot many fire bullets but Death Knight moved his feet strangely as he was dancing and surprisingly he dodged all the fire bullets.
The next instant, he became a gust of wind and shot forward, dodging the bullets and if he knew where the bullets were going to hit him.
Even after firing around hundreds of bullets, Lucas wasn't able to give a scratch on him.
The Death Knight and the demonic beast collided again and again.
Lucas commanded the demonic beast to move closer to the wall, after reaching collision.
As they got closer to the walls and the Death knight was about to slash again but the demonic beast suddenly opened his mouth and shot a beam of light.
