Chapter 463 - Favor for a Favor
Chapter 463 - Favor for a Favor
Dave yanked the chains harder, causing the sharks to burst with more speed, they were the kings of sea, and the enormous, awkwardly moving Stalwart was no match, even the protective heat around it was no more and it could do nothing as the sharks ripped at pieces of its stone body while they moved around it.
Sharks were one of the few creatures in the world that didn't care much for what their jaws locked on, and unless fang met fang, they would never let go once they bit on something.
The Kraken's burnt limbs regenerated with visible speed, then they latched onto the Stalwart's neck, limbs, and tail, locking the creature in place. It had no way out of its current predicament.
Kalel made great use of the Shark Chariots, he charged forward and sliced with his sword at any part of the Stalwart that was open to damage. The creature howled underwater, its voice muffled but its rage apparent, it could not escape, and could not counter-attack. No matter how powerful it was on the ground, once it was in the domain of the Sea God, it was not a battle anymore. It was only how long could the Stalwart Last before it was going to die.
To make things worse for the Stalwart, hundreds, then thousands of undead jumped from the port of Qin, and into the sea, the Kraken gave them access to the bottom of the sea and they dove down to aid their Undead Prince.
Undead slashed, smashed, crushed, and cut at the Stalwart, nibbling at its HP, unable to fight for its life, the Stalwart's more than two hundred million of HP fizzled to nothingness.
The Ash King's blessing soon revived the creature, with even more HP, yet it was nothing different than before, as long as the Kraken lived, the Stalwart could not get out of the sea, and as long as it could not get out of the sea, he was going to lose another life soon.
Dave shouted commands, ordered his undead to break the Stalwart, in such an advantageous position, there was nothing the lizard could do. It even tried to ignite its body underwater, several times, but no matter how the Stalwart Tried, the seawater was endless, and it soon snuffed its flames, rendering it even more feeble.
Using his strongest attack was out of the question, the Stalwart needed to ignite its body then consume the flames into its gullet and shoot it outward, yet the seawater continuously snuffed the flames, continuously locked the creature out of its most powerful ability. Fully neutralizing the threat that the Ash King has issued to break Kis'Shtiengbrah.
Dave saw up, he didn't need to fight anymore, the situation was obviously in the Undead's hands, and he didn't need to do anything else for the Stalwart to die, it was only a matter of time. It was like a trapped beast that his undead will slowly whittle down.
Dave left the raging battle undergoing under the sea and to the shore.
He still needed to take out the chalices at the other two temples, but first he had something to do.
Dave tore a teleportation scroll to the Pharaoh's Tomb raid area and went up the pyramid. The undead gave way and bowed whenever Dave walked, he was not used to being treated like a royalty and was not going to start correcting every single undead that bowed to him.
Even if all undead were family, he only exempted his Boyz from the bow, because they had gone through hardship with him from his first day, Bud, Spark, Dog and the rest were with Dave since his first days of playing the game. They fought, shed blood, and broke bones fighting with Dave, and only they were the most deserving of such a treatment.
Dave reached Dagla's library soon, he found the Arch Lich studying, his body in a much better condition than he last saw him. It seems that Dagla only needed time to recover his powers, powers that he used to save Samael from the harmful effects of the God Slaying Bolt, and also teleported him forcefully from the Ash King's raid zone to get him out.
"Prince, how may I be of service," Dagla said, he didn't have to bow to Dave, and Dave didn't say anything for the old lich not doing so. Afterall, Dagla had seniority, and was friends with the Undead King, and also was a mentor to Dave.
"Hey Dagla, I need your help with something," Dave said.
"Another favor? You haven't forgotten that you already owe me one already," Dagla laughed.
"Oh, don't worry, this help will pay off the last time's favor, believe me," Dave said.
"Then what is it?" Dagla asked.
"We'll have to go to the Wilds first, I have a scroll to Urburg, we can go there now, I need you to do something for me there."
"Right," Dagla took the scroll and tore it, and Dave followed after.
Once the two were in front of the town's gate, Dagla spoke, "This palace is livelier than expected," Dagla probably hinted at how many NPCs roamed the area.
"Yeah, it's a good hub for NPCs, and I'm planning on inviting a few people here later, but I need to have this done before."
"Then what do you require my aid for?"
"We'll have to get there first, Grumpy," Dave slammed his palm on the ground summoning the onyx lizard, he rode on and asked for Dagla to hop on the back.
Grumpy followed Dave's instruction and moved south of Urburg. Soon, after crossing a lot of the foliage and scaring the living soul out of many of the Wild's monsters. Dave arrived to a location in the map that had a huge chunk of its earth turned upside down.
"Hmm, I sense a strong presence under the dirt, it is dead, but… if I get this correctly, you want me to revive it?"
"Yep, there's a black dragon here, and I can't do it myself, but if it's the Arch Lich Dagla, then I believe it wouldn't be a problem."
"Good try on buttering me up, but I can't seem to understand why you want me to revive this, it is true, that it will be a powerful asset, but you already have a dragon of your own."
"Yeah, this is not for me, it's for the Undead King, and you'll be offering it to him tomorrow. Consider this repaying your favor," Dave said in a wide grin.
Dagla remained stupefied for a moment then said, "But this is too much, I cannot accept this, this way I'll be owning you an even greater favor, I don't think I can do this," Dagla said.
"Don't worry, I won't ask for anything I return, this is actually very useful and will help against the Ash King's raid. We need all the allies and power we can get don't we?" Dave said.
"Right, then, here it goes…" Dagla placed a palm on the ground, and the world began to shake.
