Strongest Necromancer Of Heaven's Gate



Aur, who had secretly followed Lux, looked at the Wraith Army in the distance with a calm expression on his face.

Currently, everyone was depending on the Half-Elf to overcome the wall that was preventing them from conquering the Dungeon.

'You're really full of surprises, Lux,' Aur thought.

A dozen members of the Crystal Palace, who served as Aur's bodyguards, were also in awe at the hundreds of Wraith Soldiers that the Half-Elf had acquired in a short period of time.

Although they were still not sure whether the Half-Elf's Undead Legion would be able to overcome the disparity in numbers, they no longer felt as hopeless as they did when they left the City of Peyton.

"Let's go," Aur ordered.

The Dragon Prince gave Lux one last glance before flying back to his temporary residence to rest.

Even now, he could still feel a pair of eyes observing him from somewhere. But, after being subjected to this gaze for many days, he had gotten accustomed to it already.

With the Wraith Soldiers guarding the city and keeping an eye out for possible Monster attacks, the teenagers slept peacefully despite the fact that they were currently in a ruined city, where countless people had died.

Perhaps, it was due to how dangerous the world of Elysium and Solais was that they were able to tolerate staying in such conditions.

When morning came, the teenagers ate their breakfast, after which Lux gathered everyone to tell them about the strategy that he had in mind.

"All of you already know that we will be facing at least two Dreadnaught-Ranked World Bosses when we arrive near the Capital City of the Ammarian Kingdom," Lux stated. "I can effectively deal with one of them, which leaves one more World Boss to contend with. In order to fight the last remaining threat, I will need your help, Aur."

The red-headed teenager looked at the Dragon Prince which made the latter arc an eyebrow.

"What kind of assistance do you need?" Aur asked back. "As long as I am able to do it, I will cooperate with you in order to conquer this Dungeon."

Lux smiled as he explained what he had in mind.

"When we first arrived in the Dungeon, you had an artifact that allowed you to amplify the power of your Dragon Breath, right?" Lux inquired.

Aur nodded. "Indeed. However, I have almost used up the power of this artifact. At most, I can only use it one more time."

"Once is enough. However, can it amplify anything aside from your attack?" Lux wanted to know if the plan he had in mind was feasible or not. "For example, if we all use spells at the same time, will you be able to amplify all of them?"

"Impossible," Aur answered in a heartbeat. "At most, it can amplify two kinds of attacks. If I attempt to amplify more than two, the artifact will break before it can even amplify anything."

Lux breathed a sigh of relief because this was the thing that he wanted to hear.

"Two is fine," Lux stated. "I will need you to amplify both of our attacks. I believe that if the two of us combine our powers, we will be able to deal with one of the Dreadnaught-Ranked World Bosses. If we can't kill it, we can at least freeze it for the time being, giving us time to deal with the first World Boss."

"Very well," Aur commented. "I will cooperate with you."

Now that one of his immediate concerns was taken care of, Lux then glanced at the faces of everyone around him before explaining the next step of his plans.

"Just like what happened in the City of Peyton, we can expect to fight against several Deimos and Argonaut-Ranked Monsters," Lux said. "There is nothing we can do about the disparity in Ranks, so all of you should focus on helping each other overcome dangerous situations.

"I will also be summoning the entirety of my Undead Legion, which might be able to hold off the Monster Army for a while. Our survival will rely on how fast Leoric and his Wraith Knights will be able to kill one of the World Bosses.

"As long as he is able to defeat it fast, we will be able to overturn any situation with his help. So, I implore all of you to set aside your differences with each other. I know that some of you don't like me, and believe me when I say that the feeling is mutual."

The Half-Elf eyed Prince Cyrus as if telling him "I know what you did last summer," making the Second Prince of the Vahan Empire snort.

After making sure that the Prince understood what he was trying to say, the Half-Elf continued his explanation.

"Right now, we are here as one, and fighting on the same side. I would also like to remind you that people are watching you from the outside. If you don't do your best, and hold back from using your full powers, they will know about it.

"Wouldn't it suck if you get punished because you look like extra baggage in the eyes of your superiors? So, if I were you, I'd go all out and ensure that we clear this mission with flying colors."

Although they didn't say it out loud, everyone who was there knew that the Half-Elf was using blackmail in order to keep everyone in line.

Even the Rankers and other envoys of the different factions could only shake their heads after hearing the Half-Elf's words from the projections outside the Gate of the Fallen.

But, having reached this far, everyone who was looking at the Half-Elf right now understood that he was right.

If they didn't give their best, it would reflect badly on them when they returned to the outside world.

"Well then, there is one last thing you need to do," Lux said in a teasing tone. "No matter what happens, do your best to survive. The more survivors we have, the more people we can bring when we challenge the final Gate of the Apocalypse. Isn't this why all of you are here?"

The Six Kingdoms, Skystead Alliance, and Xynnar War Pact were very desperate to increase the number of candidates that they could send inside the Domain of the Fallen.

The Crystal Palace had a special artifact that allowed them to bypass this rule. But, even then, they could only send a limited number of Initiates that served as Aur's bodyguards.

If many of them were able to survive, then they would no longer feel so restricted or have to go as far as to negotiate with those who had the ability to enter the Domain of the Fallen again.

"Now that we're done here, do you have any questions before we leave?" Lux asked.

Surprisingly, no one asked him any questions. Now that everything had been said and done, they once again embarked on their journey toward the capital city of the Ammarian Kingdom.

As to what surprise they would be welcomed with once they got there, Lux and his team had no way of finding out until it was almost too late.
