CHAPTER ONE HUNDRED AND TWO: ONE STRIKE KILL
So far, all the ordinary mercenaries had died, and only the three high-level warriors and Galen with his two mages remained on the scene.
The ordinary mercenaries were already at a disadvantage in terms of numbers, and since they were not a match for the undead beings, their failure was inevitable.
Meanwhile, the death warriors on the periphery had not managed to escape; they were completely wiped out under the leadership of Zhao Qi and Zhao Lian. In a direct confrontation, those death warriors were no match for the warriors, especially considering they had to face undead beings that were even stronger than ordinary warriors.
Now, more than a thousand undead beings surrounded the three high-level warriors and Galen, making it difficult for them to escape even if they wanted to.
Galen and Merlin did not stop; they continued to attack the three high-level warriors. Galen had to do this because the killing intent from the three high-level warriors was overwhelming. It was clear they were assassins. If they were given even a moment to breathe, they might find the opportunity to escape.
On Galen’s side, the undead beings surrounded them tightly, making it impossible for any of them to flee.
Galen felt quite frustrated. Originally, light magic was supposed to counter dark magic, but he didn’t expect an entity like space to exist, rendering the undead beings no longer afraid of light magic. His attacks with light magic had significantly reduced effectiveness against these undead beings, and now he felt somewhat powerless in dealing with them.
The Stone Spirit Duo was also having a hard time. Their most proficient magic was summoning stone giants. Although the combat power of stone giants was formidable, the magical energy required was also substantial. More importantly, careful control was necessary, so once they summoned the stone giants, it became difficult to use other magic.
Under normal circumstances, summoning stone giants would be the best choice for battle. Stone giants possessed immense strength, could throw stones for long-range attacks, were resistant to poison, and their large size meant they wouldn’t easily suffer against ordinary undead beings.
Unfortunately, they were facing undead beings enhanced by space today. While a single one might not defeat a stone giant, with so many attacking together, the stone giant could only defend.
Upon realizing the ineffectiveness of his light magic against the undead, Galen immediately shifted his strategy. He used a common tactic from light magic, supporting his teammates from behind.
His attacks were not effective against the undead beings, but his healing spells from light magic were still quite useful. It is well-known that light mages are famous on the continent not only for countering dark mages but also for their healing spells. They are the most revered mages because their light magic is the most effective healing magic on the continent, able to heal injuries and quickly restore magical energy.
Although by the level of high mages their offensive power is not weak, compared to other schools of magic, it is relatively the weakest. Because of this, whenever there is a light mage in a team, everyone will protect them in the safest area to allow them to heal and restore magical energy, while also occasionally casting light offensive spells to assist in the attack.
Currently, they were employing this method. The Stone Spirit Duo protected Galen in the center while he periodically restored their magical energy and occasionally attacked the undead beings with light magic.
At the same time, the three high-level warriors were also trying to approach Galen and his companions. Clearly, they had noticed Galen's battle strategy and wanted to come over to share the spoils, hoping that Galen could support them.
However, such tricks could not escape Galen's notice. As soon as he detected their intentions, he intensified his attacks and coordinated the undead beings to engage.
