Chapter 605: Undead Fierce Battle
The moment the bronze giant gate was completely pushed open, a storm of decay and chill swept across the entire battlefield. The darkness within the **[Ghost Gate]** surged like a tide, and countless undead creatures roared as they rushed out. Their twisted forms appeared in the green candlelight, as if the gates of hell had been completely opened.
At the very front of this undead flood, three exceptionally massive figures took heavy strides forward.
A war colossus, pieced together from rotten corpses and rusted iron, was the first to charge out with rumbling, earth-shattering steps. It was clad in hundreds of shattered pieces of armor, and from every seam of the armor, foul pus and blood seeped out. In its hand, a rusty horse-chopping saber dragged chains. Wherever the blade passed, the ground was plowed into scorched and corroded ravines.
The moment this monster saw the White Bone Giant, its festering eyes erupted with intense Death Energy, emitting a dull roar. It leaped directly towards the giant battlefield occupied by the White Bone Giant. Its rotten giant claws suddenly gripped the chain connecting the saber’s hilt and blade. The entire giant saber instantly transformed into a rotating storm of death, sweeping towards the White Bone Giant’s knee joint!
Following this, a mountain range of squirming flesh and blood rolled out from within the gate. Thousands upon thousands of pained human faces appeared on the surface of this constantly shifting mass of flesh, sometimes condensing into giant palms that struck out with tentacles. Most horrifying of all was the spectral skeletal giant’s skeleton at its core, forming a supporting structure forcibly pieced together. Every time it was attacked, new bones would pierce out from the flesh and blood, protecting vital areas like living armor.
The last to appear was a mutated Dragon Undead. Its spinal segments bulged out prominently, with asymmetrical sharp bone spurs growing from each segment. Three tailbones rose high like giant scorpion tails, their tips constantly dripping corrosive black fluid. As it spread its damaged bone wings, countless insect demons and corpse worms parasitizing the rotten membranes soared into the sky like a black cloud. These worms, as if having received their master’s orders, transformed into large swaths of black fog and surged towards the White Bone Giant’s location.
“It seems to be as you thought,” Kazumi said, hugging her arms as she coldly watched everything unfolding on the battlefield from above the **[Ghost Gate]**. “With the added Death Energy in its territory, the **[Ghost Gate]**’s capabilities are even more powerful.”
“Indeed, as Kazumi predicted, the correct way to use the *ultimate* ability of the **[Ghost Gate]** is when defending a city within its territory.”
“Although I cannot control the undead released through the **[Ghost Gate · Open]**, the wisdom of these ownerless undead themselves is not very high.”
The enemy the girl was facing was directly opposite the **[Ghost Gate]**. Given the brutal and savage nature of Undead Creatures, the first beings they saw upon emerging from the **[Ghost Gate]** naturally became their targets. Not to mention the high-quality Death Energy currently boiling on the **[White Bone Giant]**, which held an innate attraction for these powerful Undead Creatures.
Coupled with the majestic and sturdy city wall behind them, it was self-evident which direction the Undead Creatures emerging from the **[Ghost Gate]** would lean towards attacking. As Kazumi’s enemy, **[White Bone]** could not possibly know the flaws of this ability. As long as he subconsciously retaliated against the attack, the only outcome would be for the attacking side to be consumed before it could stop.
“Netherworld Passage! You truly possess the authority to open the Netherworld!”
The **[White Bone Giant]**’s voice boomed across the battlefield. The eerie green flames in its eye sockets suddenly contracted fiercely, then erupted like a volcanic eruption, shooting out a blinding **[light beam]**.
“Kazumi’s use of energy has made **[White Bone]**’s already enraged state even more violent, but it immediately fell under the siege of three terrifying high-level undead.”
The **[White Bone Giant]** let out an enraged roar. The endless Undead Creatures released from the **[Ghost Gate]** forced it to abandon its pursuit of Satō Shin’ichi and instead deal with these three suddenly appearing colossal undead. It fiercely gripped the horse-chopping saber of the Rotten Corpse Colossus with its massive bone claws. Instantly, green flames spread along the blade, and the blade was instantly turned into molten iron.
However, the Rotten Corpse Colossus still released its weapon and pressed its rotten giant palm fiercely against the White Bone Giant’s wrist bone. A “hissing” corrosive sound emanated from where the bones touched!
At the same time, the deformed dragon beast’s bone limbs whipped against the White Bone Giant’s spine, splashing large amounts of bone fragments. The poison mist spat from its three heads, while unable to extinguish the soul fire, made the flames burn sluggishly.
The flesh and blood aggregate was even more troublesome. It clung to the White Bone Giant’s leg bones like viscous asphalt, dissolving the bone armor it passed into honeycomb-like holes!
The entire battlefield boiled over due to this sudden variable. Undead continued to pour out of the **[Ghost Gate]** ceaselessly. Led by the three high-level undead, they swarmed up the White Bone Giant’s body like ants, attacking frantically with teeth and claws, all in an effort to gnaw off even a single bone fragment from its body.
“Mere unintelligent Undead Creatures, you wish to devour me?!”
In its berserk state, the **[White Bone Giant]** went completely mad. Its massive skeletal body suddenly erupted with a suffocating pressure. Every bone began to twist and deform, spinal segments elongating into bone whips densely covered in barbs. Its arms reconfigured, forming two giant bone blades. Its chest bones folded outward, revealing a rotating vortex of death within. Most terrifyingly, in its hollow, cylindrical eye sockets, eerie green fire condensed into tangible crystals, and two death rays, condensed to the extreme, swept across the battlefield again.
The **[terrifying]** death rays instantly vaporized the bone armor of the closest Rotten Corpse Colossus and the Flesh Monster. Its body, composed of countless corpses, left a deep gash. The flesh monster’s tentacles turned to ash and scattered. The entire mass of flesh and blood was directly split into several scattered clumps. Only the Dragon Skeleton Undead, relying on its wings, narrowly dodged this fatal beam.
However, these injuries, capable of killing flesh and blood creatures, were completely unable to affect these massive undead creatures. The Rotten Corpse Colossus completely ignored the wound on its chest, grabbing the White Bone Giant’s bone hand with one hand and smashing its right fist towards the skull burning with eerie green flames with heavy force. The separated clumps of flesh and blood expanded directly, madly devouring the densely packed low-level undead on the battlefield like ants. The small clumps of flesh grew at a visible speed, transforming into three flesh and blood monsters of their original size, once again surrounding the White Bone Giant. The Dragon Skeleton Undead, flying into mid-air, also spat out poisonous breath from its mouth, and one by one, it dove and charged towards the White Bone Giant again.
*********
High above this chaotic battlefield, a **[large]** flock of Corpse Crows circled in the sky. Beneath the vast shadow cast by the Corpse Crows, a blond man squatted on the backs of the Corpse Crows, silently watching everything unfold below. The purple crack on the fist of his right hand emitted a strange, faint **[glow]** in the dim space.
