Chapter 1075: Fusion
Chapter 1075: Fusion
Even if the lich complained in an aggrieved voice, it wasn't as if it was able to do anything. That was because it had been completely suppressed by everything that was thrown at it.
The dark energy that surrounded it became weaker and weaker until it completely disappeared and once that happened, the lich had no more defenses left against the attacks that were raining down on it.
With the attacks shattering the bone that made up the lich's body, it really wasn't able to do a single thing against the attacks that rained down on it.
So the lich was taken out by the combination of everyone's might and a bit of divine intervention.
The moment that the lich collapsed, it seemed that the undead horde froze as if they had lost the one thing that was connecting them. It was as if the brain for the undead horde was suddenly cut off and they weren't able to do a single thing.
But at the same time, I fell down onto my four limbs on Joan's back.
Using the power of the Staff of Earth had drained me, so I was close to running out of energy completely.
Only before I could let myself fall unconscious, there was something else that I had to do first.
I tapped Joan on the back and pointed forward at where the lich had fallen. She seemed hesitant as if she didn't want to approach it, but she still went over when I patted her on the back again.
When Joan went over, the others also came over to where the lich was and formed a defensive line.
When Klein came down, I could feel his glare on me.
There were clearly some choice words that he had for me, but he didn't say them now since we were still in the middle of the undead horde. Only there was no doubt that he would make these words clear to me once we headed back.
There was a small part of me that didn't want to go back seeing him like this...
Still, there was a reason why I had come over to the lich's remains.
I could sense that there was still a trace of dark energy coming from the lich, so I knew that there was something that was still there. It was possible that the lich would have some way of preserving its life, so I wanted to make sure that it was dead before leaving.
I didn't let go of the Staff of Earth as I approached the lich's remains, but it turned out that there was no need to be this worried.
That was because where the dust from the lich's bones were was an orb.
The moment that I saw this orb, I immediately recognized what this orb was.
It was another Orb of the Dead.
It was almost exactly the same as the one that I possessed, but it seemed that this one was a bit bigger. At the same time, it seemed that there was a darker form of energy inside of this Orb of the Dead.
This Orb of the Dead was most likely one that had been nurtured by the lich.
The lich was a master of that dark energy, so it was only natural that this Orb of the Dead would have a greater concentration of dark energy inside of it. With the amount of dark energy that the lich had demonstrated, it wasn't surprising if there was a terrifying concentration of dark energy inside of this Orb of the Dead.
It might even be something that would be dangerous to approach...
Or that was what everyone thought until I suddenly started moving forward towards this thing.
As I went towards it, there was a bitter smile that was on my face.n/ô/vel/b//jn dot c//om
It wasn't that I wanted to move towards this Orb of the Dead since I knew that this thing was dangerous. It was that there was something that was pulling me towards this Orb of the Dead unwillingly.
It was my own Orb of the Dead that was pulling me towards it.
With the way that it was pulling me, it was as if there was something about the lich's Orb of the Dead that was drawing in my Orb of the Dead.
The others narrowed their eyes, but they didn't say anything as they moved in closer as well to cover me.
Even if the undead horde seemed like they weren't planning to do anything and even seemed like they were a bit lost, there was no telling when that would change. If they let their guards down and were caught unaware by the undead horde, then it would be dangerous.
But it didn't seem like the undead horde were planning on doing anything.
After I came over to the lich's Orb of the Dead, the pull from my Orb of the Dead seemed to become even stronger.
It was as if it would stop at nothing to reach the lich's Orb of the Dead.
With it acting like this, I had no choice but to pull out the Orb of the Dead and see what it wanted.
The moment that I pulled it out, there was a strong pull that came from it as it moved towards the lich's Orb of the Dead on the ground. I wasn't able to keep my hold on the Orb of the Dead, so it flew out of my hand in the end and went towards the lich's Orb of the Dead.
The moment that the two orbs made contact, it was as if there was some kind of external force that pressed the two of them together.
The two orbs continued to go into each other until they finally...
Fusion.
The two of them fused together to form a singular Orb of the Dead.
The moment that this Orb of the Dead appeared, all of the undead suddenly reacted.
They all turned in the direction of the Orb of the Dead and looked at it as it laid there on the ground.
