Chapter 1507 1347: War 2

''You guys should know what this means. The Undead Army is only 40 minutes away from us and we have to get everything ready by then."

Alex turned around and called one by one.

"Miss Madeline, get all the soldiers ready for Category A battle. Also, set up defenses, seal off the entrance doors, and pull up the drawbridge. Minerva, you're in charge of preparing all the alchemical armor and weapons. I want everyone equipped in the shortest time possible."

"Yes, Sir."

Minerva their alchemist stood upright and responded with a trembling voice. On the other hand, Madeline pondered in silence and nodded slightly before letting out a yawn. It seemed that she hadn't woken up yet. Alex turned to the others upon hearing their affirmations.

"Joe, from now onward, the Fortress will be sealed off entirely. Anyone is prohibited from heading out unless granted permission. I want you to lead your men to patrol the area. Johnson, I request that you gather your Cavalrymen to maintain order within the city in the quickest time possible and ensure that there is no chaos among the people. I will get a group to assist you with that. If anyone creates trouble or wreaks havoc, kill them without hesitation! Also, dispatch a squad out of the Fortress to gather the villagers and prepare them for evacuation."

"Yes, Sir Overlord!"

"Got it, my Lord."

Johnson replied urgently and even Joe, who usually put on a cheeky smile put up a stern expression. Time was of the essence now and Alex wasn't in the mood to care about such details. He even felt that giving commands was a waste of time. It would have been easy if this was an online game and he was being a monitor, he could just click and get done with it.

'Well, this is fun!'

Alex ordered with a solemn expression.

"Let's move out."

The pitch-black curtain drew in and shrouded everything.

Alex stood on the tall city wall and gazed into the distance.

 Even though everything had been covered in darkness and snowstorm, it wasn't what it seemed to be in his eyes.

The Fortress was as though a sleeping giant had awakened and flown into operation. As Alex had trained the soldiers specially for such events, they didn't appear to be flustered at all. They had gotten ready in an orderly fashion and stood on the city wall, gazing sternly into the distance.

The archers on the towers were also ready with their bows and arrows, aiming at the dark border.

"Hu… Ha… Hu…"

Standing at the peak of the city wall, Alex breathed deeply. He felt his body trembling subconsciously, where even his right hand was trembling. That was a mix of nervousness, thrill, excitement, and fear, like snow water flowing in his body. He had prepared a long time for this moment. Now that the Undead Army was approaching, how would the fight go?

This was just the beginning.

Swish… Swish… Swish…

This faint sound echoed in the whizzing snowstorm.

It sounded like waves splashing on the shore.

Alex lifted his head and gazed into the distance. He was able to see through the darkness, and he knew what was behind it.

Thousands of skeletons swarmed forward uniformly like computerized robots. They were fearless as they silently harvested every life in their path with the Death Knights, Vampires, and Necromancers following closely behind.

A raid unit.

Thanks to his powerful Divine Sense and Silveria's warning he became aware of the enemy ambush before it happened.

Alex perked up the corners of his mouth and revealed a smile. Raid was to catch an enemy off guard with a surprise attack, it was exactly what he wanted to do.

''Ask the Saintess to activate the Holy statue that works against the undead.''

He narrowed his eyes. Shortly after, a dazzling golden radiance emerged before him.

Silver-whitish, holy radiance blasted abruptly into the sky.

The crystal Holy Statue erected in the middle of the plaza blasted a beam of radiance that was as dazzling as the sun. It rushed into the sky and ripped through the clouds. As soon as it reached the highest point, it expanded in all directions to form a divine barrier that shrouded the entire Fortress. Then, the whizzing snowstorm gradually weakened, dark clouds faded, and shadows enveloping the land retreated like the tide which revealed everything that was hidden beneath.

The Undead Army camouflaged in the darkness was instantly exposed by the divine brilliance. Everyone witnessed the burning spiritual flames in their eyes and blades shimmering in ice-cold radiance. The Undead Army slowed down to the abrupt environmental changes and it was apparent that they didn't expect to be discovered.

Good.

Alex looked down at the Undead Army with an ice-cold expression. The Undead Army was so close to launching their ambush, but now, the situation had been reversed. Since they had barged into Alex's turf, they could forget about turning back now.

Alex raised his right arm and swung forward with all his might.

"Attack!"

°°°°°

Meanwhile, on the other side, right before the Holy statue was activated.

Rairhan lifted his head and gazed into the sky with his eyes burning in spiritual flames. Even though the dense dark clouds had concealed his vision, he could sense the pitch-black, pure, powerful force pushing forward. Although it wasn't fast, it devoured everything steadily as if a dark abyss.

Everything's going smoothly.

Rairhan unrolled a smile. Perhaps the pathetic mortals didn't expect us to attack at this juncture. They are timid, foolish, and only fit to live as slaves. Kingsley's Parliament's false bravado means nothing to Undead Creatures who have lived for one to two centuries. The Undead Creatures deemed the Kingsley's Parliament as unqualified to interact with them and they were only a group of immature, egotistical rascals.

But now…

Rairhan lowered his head. He looked forward and rubbed his chin with his hand covered in steel armor against his white skeletal jaw. It let out a sound of friction and that was

Rairhan's favorite sound. The sound would leave his mind calm and peaceful, which wasn't easy for Undead Creatures, especially for presences like Death Knights, like

Rairhan. As warriors with returning souls, their hearts were filled with either vengeance, murderous intent, or endless wars. Peace of mind was as rare as an oasis in the desert, where it could be discovered but not sought. As for

Rairhan, the sensation and sound of the friction between his jaw and steel armor was able to temporarily calm the surging flames in him. He liked it this way as this momentary peace meant that there would be much more violent eruptions ahead. He couldn't wait to charge forward, lead his subordinates against the enemies, and trample them into ashes.

"S-Sir Commander."

A feeble voice sounded.

Rairhan came to a slight halt and turned to the flustered young man, who appeared to be no different from the short-lived slaves. He looked miserable, skinny, and had messy long hair sticking to his face. A pitch-black cloak wrapped his body and the red substrate could be vaguely seen. The young man hugged a white cat in his arms, nodding, and bowing to

Rairhan. His name was Raoul, a Vampire who was sent here just before this war. Death Knights had always been annoyed by the Vampires who used crafty plots and machinations behind their backs, which was why Rairhan let out a snort in disdain.

"W-We're reaching our destination soon."

"Oh."

Rairhan replied in a perfunctory tone. He shifted his gaze forward and spotted a silhouette of a pitch-black, imposing structure. That was their destination: the Alex's Fortress and the most important defensive line in the western Renner Kingdom. As long as they broke through the defenses, they could penetrate the vast plain and slaughter their way to Apple City. At this moment, Rairhan pondered for a moment.

He randomly recalled the report regarding a dangerous young overlord in this territory. Besides, according to his companions, two of their elite soldiers had died at his hands. Not only that, but he had also eliminated the entire secret army that executed the mission with one of them. This achievement itself was enough to make Rairhan view him in a new light.

'I didn't expect that there would be such an interesting fella among the Humans.'

Rairhan let out a grunt. He wasn't interested in that Elite soldier's death. Even though they were all Death Knights, friendship between Undead Creatures was only a joke. On the contrary, he was amused by the young overlord. He heard that the Fortress was built in half a day. No matter if the rumors were true or false, that young overlord must be truly capable. If there was an opportunity, Rairhan wished to turn him into his subordinate.

'I'm thinking too much.'

Rairhan kept his thoughts and shook his head slightly. The spiritual flames in his eyes flickered. It was in total darkness at the Fortress, apart from sporadic dancing flames. It seemed that the people hadn't sensed the dangers yet and this night was nothing more than an ordinary one.

But it would be a different story soon.
