Undead Mage: I Have a Skeleton Clone

But now the magic was prematurely detonated, turning into an indiscriminate attack mode, Shen Zhongyun didn’t want to feel what the Glory Magic falling on him would be like at all.

"Boom! Boom! Boom!"

Massive thunderclouds descended from the sky, each one possessing an attack power no less than Silver Tier magic.

Some large remnants of the magic even had the destructive intensity of Golden Tier magic.

The fortress had Magic Shield defense; each thundercloud that fell on the shield exploded with more thunder and lightning, causing ripples across the shield.

The defense value of the Magic Shield was constantly being consumed, and the pile of magic stones at the energy supply port was decreasing visibly.

However, fortunately, the defenders of Tiger Suppression Fortress still had the Defense Array to support them.

Compared to the defenders inside the city, the Beastmen outside were in an even more miserable state.

They had no Magic Shield defenses, and waves of magic thunder fell, leaving the Beastmen soldiers wailing and crying.

The thunder ignited their fur; they wailed, rolling on the ground, but these thunders were far from extinguishable by such means.

The thunder kept conducting through their bodies, not diminishing with their movements but getting even more vigorous.

Some lucky Beastmen hid in the Magic Energy Assault Vehicle or Enchanted Cloud Ladder; their luck was relatively better.

These siege equipment all had a trimmed-down version of the Defense Shield, able to withstand the descending thunder.

But the good times didn’t last long, and the shield’s defense value soon reached its limit.

The magic stones in the siege equipment were also quickly exhausted, and these Beastmen hastily contributed their own magic stones.

Yet even after all contributing their stones, this quantity was just a drop in the bucket.

Facing the constantly rolling thunder attacks, it was to no avail.

Soon, the Defense Shields of these siege engines were one by one breached like bubbles.

These tall pieces of equipment also collapsed and withered under the electric strikes of the thunder, turning into large grave mounds.

The Beastmen inside, like trapped beasts, howled in pain, unable to escape the fate of being electrocuted.

Some middle-high tier Beastmen officers and nobles desperately ran, dodging the thunder coming down from the sky.

Those who couldn’t dodge used witchcraft, magic, or burst battle qi to resist while quickening their escape, fleeing far from this thunder hell.

The strongest, Yale the Centurion, was a Golden Tier Combat Professional, and the remaining thunder attacks had little effect on him.

Now he was charging through the battlefield like a firefighter, bursting with battle qi and striking the thunder clumps in mid-air to burst them.

But later, his battle qi was consumed too fast, and it became unsustainable, so he had to pick up a few Silver Tier Beastman nobles and flee down the mountain.

As he fled, his heart was bleeding.

A significant number of the Beastmen electrocuted were private soldiers from his tribe.

The losses in this battle were too great, and crucially, no substantial results were achieved.

Returning in such a sorry state, the Great Chief would probably tear him apart!

..............

Bang, bang, bang!

As the last thunder fell, the Defense Shield of Tiger Suppression Fortress also ran out at this moment, shattered like broken glass, fragmenting into pieces.

After Shen Zhongyun and Fang Zhou used magic to disperse the last few thunder clumps falling from the sky, they couldn’t help but wipe the cold sweat off their foreheads.

Everyone left inside the fortress also exhaled in relief, feeling like they had survived a disaster.

The overwhelming thunder just now had practically suffocated them.

As if in the next moment, they would be devoured by the thunder, luckily the shield held out till the end.

Shen Zhongyun quickly ordered the servants to go down, placing a large batch of magic stones into the Array; the most urgent task now was to restart the Defense Array.

Otherwise, if the Beastmen took advantage of the shattered shield and launched a counterattack, it would be troublesome.

However, compared to the defenders of Tiger Suppression Fortress, the losses on the Beastmen’s side were greater.

Not to mention those who died in previous siege attempts, even more Beastmen warriors were electrocuted by the thunder, the condition of the corpses was chilling.

Now, except for the Beastmen who were electrocuted, the others who could escape had long fled to the foot of the mountain, with no intention of staying.

After a few minutes, when Shen Zhongyun restarted the Defense Array and saw the solid shield rise above the fortress, everyone inside could finally breathe a sigh of relief.

Outside the city, Beastmen soldiers lay dead everywhere, each electrocuted into a clump of charcoal.

Fang Zhou stood atop the high tower, unable to help but take a few deep breaths.

The scene just now was something he encountered for the first time; the destructive effect of a Glory Champion Level high-level magic was truly powerful.

Previously, during the interception battle at the Demon Tower, he had observed from afar, through a distant World Barrier, Admiral Zhu Rong’s legendary powerhouse [Heaven-Burning Fury] in action.

A single Legendary Level Fireball Skill annihilated blood, shadows, and undead, the three Great Demon champions, in one blow.

But back then, separated by a chasm-like distance, Fang Zhou only witnessed the apocalyptic sight of fireclouds filling the sky.

All other magic fluctuations and energies were well-restrained by Colonel Zhu Rong.

Thus, Fang Zhou never had a direct sense of the power of Legendary Magic.

But now it was different.

He had just faced the aftermath of a Glory Champion Level Thunderous Bomb.

Even with the blockage of Tiger Suppression Fortress’s Defense Shield, the mighty energy fluctuations were fully visible to Fang Zhou’s Soul Eagle Eye.

The gap was indeed too large.

A long-lost yearning arose in Fang Zhou’s heart.

A Glory Champion Mage several hundred kilometers away, stationed at the Magic Tower in Beast Fighting City, could casually unleash a world-destroying Glory Magic.

Even with the enemy’s Glory Champion Caster trying to block, they still obliterated hundreds of low-level Beastmen in one hit.

This is the power of High Tier Mages.

He wondered how long it would take him to reach such a level.

Fang Zhou clenched the Soul Shattering Bone Staff in his hand, feeling the constantly spinning Silver Tier liquid mana core inside him, igniting furious determination.

He had spent two years growing from a newly awakened Apprentice-level recruit to a Silver Tier military Major.

Next would be to coagulate a solid mana core and advance to the Golden Tier Undead Mage.

Then he could begin to gather the Champion’s Will, following the path Master Sandro paved to rise to Glory Champion.

The power of Glory Champion Level Undead Magic should not be inferior to this Thunderous Bomb, right?

Coming back to his senses, Fang Zhou stood looking out over the city from a high point and couldn’t help shaking his head.

It’s such a waste, a shame to squander resources!

All these Beastmen corpses were charred by the thunder.

Regarding whether the corpses could be resurrected as Flesh Servants, even the Enchanted Equipment on some of the Beastmen might have had their runes destroyed, some might even have their base plate burned out.

"Boom, rumble!"

At this moment, the main gate of Tiger Suppression Fortress opened, and three Shadow-Devouring Knights rushed out like a hurricane.

Following the orders of Lieutenant Colonel Shen Zhongyun, they took advantage of the enemy’s chaotic escape to eliminate some injured middle-high tier Beastmen who had escaped.

Seeing this, Fang Zhou immediately commanded over a dozen of his swiftest Blood Spirit Knights, Blood Spirit Giant Bats, and Blood Spirit Assassins to set out with the Shadow-Devouring Knights.

The few elite Undead Creatures around him also charged out together.

Now was the time to expand the victory.

Especially for a Undead Mage like Fang Zhou, killing a few more Silver Tier Beastmen warriors would soon result in a few strong Silver Tier Artificial Undead!

Along the mountain from the middle down to the foot, lucky Beastmen warriors scattered everywhere, their levels varied from high to low.

Middle-high tier Beastmen warriors escaped by their own strength from the Thunder Punishment.

Low tier Beastmen, escaping, were truly relying on luck.

The three Shadow-Devouring Knights, exuding the pressure of Silver Upper Rank, activated their Shadow-Devouring Spirit Light to the max, and along with Fang Zhou’s Blood Spirit Undead Guard, killed all encountered Beastmen on their way.
