The man in front of him was Shinja, the Stormblade, a legendary warrior who had just returned from a dangerous mission in the Toxic Zombie Den.
After clearing that Dungeon with Eldric the Scavenger and overcoming insurmountable odds against the Den filled with Toxic Zombies, he had finally come back to his shelter, only to find it under siege by this vile Necromancer.
As for Eldric and the three new Super Soldiers that Shinja had converted, they were still behind since they were quite slow.
"Who dares to challenge me?!" The Necromancer roared after sensing the threat that Shinja posed.
However, Shinja had no plans to answer this enemy.
Without a moment's hesitation, Shinja raised his blades, their edges also started to accumulate storm energy as he locked eyes with the Necromancer…
"Die!" He declared to the furious Necromancer.
With a swift downward slash, Shinja aimed to split the Necromancer into two…
The surrounding area was filled with the blade's storm energy and his blade seemed to have grown in size, and he covered five meters of range with that blade!
Caught off guard by the sudden assault, the Necromancer barely had time to react.
He instinctively raised his hands, preparing to summon a protective barrier, but Shinja was faster. The blades sliced through the air and destroyed the natural energy protection of the Necromancer! Then, it went straight for the head of the Necromancer!
The Death Knight beside the Necromancer acted quickly and raised his blade to defend its master…
The energy blade that Shinja released clashed with the deathly aura of the Death Knights and its dark sword.
However, Shinja seemed to have gotten a lot stronger after his mission. His strike also created a small lightning force around and stopped the Necromancer from casting another spell.
It didn't end there as Shinja boasts a few Level 10 Skills in his Arsenal! Two of them were Warlord's Bloodlust and Blade Storm Technique!
[ Warlord's Bloodlust Lv10 ( Max): A fierce skill that taps into the Warlord's primal rage, granting increased strength and ferocity in combat, inspiring fear in enemies and boosting morale in allies. It grants the following benefits:
+30% damage dealt and critical hit chance while under the effects of bloodlust
+30% chance to intimidate and weaken foes with the Warlord's intimidating presence
+30% duration of bloodlust effects, fueling the Warlord's assault ]
[ Blade Storm Technique Lv10 ( Max): An aggressive skill that enables the Warlord to unleash a whirlwind of blades, striking fear into enemies and causing chaos on the battlefield. It grants the following benefits:
+50% area of effect damage with blade storm attacks
+50% chance to inflict bleeding or crippling effects on foes
+50% speed of executing blade storm maneuvers ]
The Critical Chance was triggered with this strike as his Bloodlust was activated. Furthermore, the attack itself contained the power of the Blade Storm and added additional damage with crippling effect!
That single strike from Shinja crushed the Death Knight and continued hitting the Necromancer!
"This! Impossible! Aarrghh!"
The Necromancer still had so many Spells he could use. He also had other Cursed Artifacts in his possession. He could still activate Death Rays a few times and, perhaps, use Corpse Explosion! However, after confirming that everyone in the estate had turtled inside the inner wall, he became too confident and only left one Death Knight to protect him!
The Necromancer was furious and wanted to curse Shinja, but it was already too late!
Shinja's sword just cut through him!
At this time, Shinja also confirmed the death of the enemy as he received a message from the system.
[ You have eliminated a Wild Necromancer. ]
The death of the Wild Necromancer happened so quickly! Because of that, the Bone Monster and the three
After seeing this, he glanced at the estate that was being sieged.
Apparently, only the Bone Monsters, Zombie Warriors, and Death Knights had disappeared after the death of the Necromancer.
The five Lich were still active!
Nonetheless, with the disappearance of the Death Knights, everyone could focus on these bone wizards.
Shinja could tell that they no longer needed his help and just watched their battle from a distance.
Then, also decided to loot the Necromancer.
[ You have earned 250 Experience Points. ]
[ Loots obtained: Item Upgrade Crystal x1, Dark Mage's Staff x1, Dark Mage's Robe x1, Orb of Undead Summoning ( High ) x1 ]
Shinja had no use with the Staff and Robe since he wasn't a Dark Mage or Necromancer. He also had no idea about the Orb of Undead Summoning, but he could tell that they were all important items.
Nonetheless, this event of Necromancers attacking various shelters wasn't just happening in Shane's Springriver Manor. To be exact, all the Survivor Shelters that were within 50 kilometers of the Wild Shelters were also being attacked!
During this time, some shelters were able to defend against the threat of the Necromancers while others had already fallen.
Because of that, those Survivors who would be returning from the Boss Raid Event would be experiencing another battle.
However, if their defenders managed to win against the threat of the Wild Shelter, then they would surely obtain not just the loot from the undead but also the wealth of the Necromancers once they attacked the undefended Wild Shelters.
Well, some traps or maybe automated turrets must be installed in those Wild Shelters, but without a Necromancer commanding the place, it was just a matter of time.
In the meantime, while the Necromancers were causing havoc in the numerous Survivor Shelters, Shane and his team finally received a message confirming that they were the fastest to clear the third stage of the Boss Raid event!
[ Congratulations, Team 1!
Your team has been confirmed to be the fastest Raiders of the 3rd Stage. Each member of the team will receive the following rewards:
Exceptional Skill Scroll x1
Tier 3 Explorer Set ]
[ Your rewards have been transferred to your Inventory. ]
Shane, Diana, and Sandra found these new rewards interesting… The Perception Stone and Epic Recruitment Stone had disappeared, but they were replaced by Zombie Cores and a new set of clothes!
