Removal of the Inner City Wall

Chapter 61 Retreat from the Inner City Walls

"What do you mean?" Lu Xu asked.

"A necromancer, far more powerful than the Demon Tyrant, is flying over!" Gojo Satoru stared intently in a certain direction.

The four super-level mages, Feijiao, Duxiao, Luxu, and Zhumeng, all looked in the direction that Wutiao Wu was staring at.

The four gazed through the light drizzle and were startled to discover a skeletal creature with enormous bony wings flying close to the clouds in the dimly lit world…

"Lord of the Underworld!!" Lu Xu uttered the name with a grim expression.

"The Demon Tyrant is a demon, the monarch among demons, and its appearance is always accompanied by a dense horde of demons!"

The Lord of Skeletons is a skeleton, the Lord of Skeletons!

"This is a super undead whose fearsome reputation even surpasses that of the Ghostly Tyrant!" Staff Officer Zhu explained.

Upon hearing this, everyone present except for Gojo Satoru changed their expressions drastically.

"Waaaaah!!"

With a roar like a death knell, the Skeleton King hovered several kilometers away from the city wall.

It raised its head high, revealing the main head among its three heads, and through its hollow throat, one could see black energy accumulating!

"It's going to destroy the city walls directly!" Lu Xu exclaimed in shock.

He could feel the pervasive power of death, and could only watch helplessly.

The same applies to Zhu Meng and others.

"I'll go!" However, Gojo Satoru was not afraid of the giant bone dragon at all. He instantly teleported and flashed in front of the bone dragon.

boom! !

A powerful whip kick forcibly changed the target of the attack on the head of the Skeleton King.

This action was so fast that even the three-headed Lord of the Underworld couldn't react in time, and the terrifying black light devoured many of the undead below.

"Good kick!" Zhu Meng shouted.

"Let's make our move too!" Du Xiao said with a grim expression.

"Don't be impulsive, there seems to be another one!" Flying Horn noticed that there was still a figure behind the Lord of the Corpse and quickly stopped the people who wanted to go forward.

"What!" Zhu Meng and the others were shocked.

……

The Lord of the Corpse Demon quickly realized that there were ants on its head, and then two heads tore towards Gojo Satoru's position.

Gojo Satoru leaped to the side, his body forcibly forced out of the Bone Dragon Lord's head range.

boom! !

Suddenly, the dragon claw of the Skeleton King appeared behind Gojo Satoru without anyone noticing, and slammed down with its claw.

It exudes a menacing aura, containing the power of death.

Gojo Satoru immediately maintained his boundless self, protecting his entire body.

However, the attack of a top-tier monarch was far beyond what Gojo Satoru could withstand at this moment.

This claw directly tore through Gojo Satoru's limitless defense.

Gojo Satoru was so struck by the attack, which was filled with the power of death, that he was embedded in the city wall, and his fate was unknown.

……

The entire city gate was exhausted. Everyone had just experienced a great victory, followed by the despair of being surrounded by a raging tsunami.

"All personnel, listen up! Abandon the city walls immediately and retreat to the inner city barrier!" The order from the command center was broadcast over the city walls in various areas.

The next moment, all the military mages quickly and orderly put up a final resistance, waiting for the logistics personnel inside the city walls to evacuate.

A dazzling purple light suddenly bloomed across the entire outer city wall, and ordinary people, magic association members, and even ordinary people began to retreat into the inner barrier.

……

The Lord of the Underworld hovered in the sky, blotting out the sun, overlooking the city. As for the ant that had just blocked its way, it couldn't be bothered to finish it off.

It roared in the air, and all the dead obeyed its command and rose from their graves, their bones standing tall and endless!

At the far end of the vast ocean of the dead, a mad corpse, towering like a mountain, appeared without warning. With each step it took, the ground trembled and reached the city, making the iron-clad city tremble under its feet!

The corpse of the mountain responded to the call of the Lord of the Underworld in the sky, its body becoming a sky-reaching corpse flag.

The countless corpses of the dead assembled their bodies and gathered together, whether crawling out from underground or surging in from the far north, their numbers so great that they could cover the distant horizon...

At the main city gate, Zhu Meng and Du Xiao, along with several other high-level mages, immediately dragged the dizzy Wu Tiao Wu out of the city wall.

The claws of the Skeleton King were filled with the power of death, and Gojo Satoru was struck on the spot.

If it weren't for the immense spiritual and healing power protecting his heart and soul, he would probably have died long ago from the corrosive power of death.

"We have to retreat too. The two undead lords have already appeared, and we can't stop them at all!" Staff Officer Zhu's face was so gloomy it could drip water.

Although Du Xiao, Lu Xu, Fei Jiao, and the others were unwilling to admit it, they knew it in their hearts.

"The corpse of the mountain peak is probably on par with the Totem Serpent. Obey orders and retreat to the inner city barrier. The inner layer still needs us!" Zhu Meng said calmly.

However, the veins on his wrists were bulging, showing that he was also very angry.

"Zhu Meng..." Mo Fan called out to Zhu Meng with a solemn expression.

"You should escape too, escape to the inner city wall, where there is a protective barrier..." Zhu Meng said dejectedly.

"Of course I know I have to escape, but I want to tell you how I feel..." Mo Fan said in a calm voice, his face more serious than ever before.

"Tell me," Zhu Meng said, looking completely bewildered.

"You should know I'm from Bo City... Believe it or not, I smell the Black Vatican!" Mo Fan said coldly.

"The Black Vatican! How so?" Zhu Meng was utterly shocked.

"Rain!" Mo Fan uttered only one word.

Zhu Meng was stunned.

"The method of this disaster is exactly the same as when I was in Bo City. It was also without warning, and it was also a heavy rain. You may think that the two rains are just a coincidence, but I think everything is related. Such a thing can never happen without a reason. Natural disasters must be mixed with human conspiracy!" Mo Fan said.

"You should leave with us. Otherwise, without Gojo's protection, you might not be able to reach the inner city wall barrier safely..." Zhu Meng believed what Mo Fan said.

"I still need to pick up a few friends, so I'll have to trouble you to look after Wu," Mo Fan said, shaking his head.

"I'll send someone..."

"No, your people are precious. Go save those who need saving. I'm no longer the guy who was barely surviving in Bo City. I can lead them away myself!" Mo Fan said earnestly.

"Alright then," Zhu Meng conceded.

Du Xiao and the demon man, carrying Wutiao Wu and Mo Fan, turned back to Mo Fan and said, "See you at the inner city wall!"

"Okay, see you at the inner city wall."

In fact, many cries of "See you inside the city wall!" have already been heard from inside this city gate tower.

These mages, having come together, won a victory, but lost most of the city.

Everyone has someone they're searching for amidst this chaotic apocalypse. Rather than despairing here, it's better to set off as soon as possible. So, all the words in the world can be summed up in one sentence...

It's a blessing, it's hope, but it feels more like a farewell.

……

This time, the purple alert was not only on the north city wall, but the entire ancient city wall was lit up in purple.

Everyone could only take their loved ones and retreat to the inner city walls before the city walls were completely destroyed.
