Blake used magic to clean himself off while telling Yui to rest up. He did not want her to go rushing out to combat when she was in her current state. He got dressed and headed to the top floor and immediately found Mike running towards the meeting room. "What's going on!?"
"No idea yet. Bret said he would brief us on what is going on when we get to the meeting room." Mike replied as he continued to run towards the meeting room.
The two arrived quickly, along with the other council elders. Even King Frondor, who was still visiting, and even Ancient Tamal appeared to find out what was going on. Not long after everyone arrived, Bret came running into the room with sweat dripping down his face. "Sorry it took me a bit longer to arrive. We have a massive army of what seems to be undead and dragonic coming this way. When I say massive, we are talking a little over fifty to sixty million in forces."
"What!? When did my dragonic clan start associating with the undead!?" Ancient Tamal couldn't believe it.
"Look, I am just telling you what I know. But I do not think this is the undead you are thinking about. This seems to be more like the zombies during the rain of death. But more orderly, like they are being controlled by someone, yet they still seem brainless. " Bret replied.
"Necromancer!" Ancient Tamal and Lillia both cried out. The two looked at each other and nodded. They both came to the same conclusion.
"Blake, remember when the zombies all disappeared when we returned from the tomb? It is more than likely a necromancer called them away. Such a necromancer will not be easy to deal with." Lillia had to admit the number of undead, if they were now magic resistant would not be easy to deal with.
"Then what should we do?" Blake's eyes were cold. He looked at Ancient Tamal and asked: "Is your dragonic clan so hell bent on wiping out my city that they would even form an alliance with a necromancer!?"
"No! If I was there, I would never allow such a thing! Necromancers are not trustworthy! That stupid idiot of a king actually dared to make such an alliance. I will have his fucking head! How dare he try to ruin the city my Meimei-chan was born in!" Ancient Tamal's outburst made many in the room look at him strangely, but at the same time, they could feel his anger was real.
"Alright, calm down." Blake stood up. "Ancient Tamal, I will rely on you to make your people turn away so we can reduce the numbers we have to fight. If they will listen to anyone on our side, it would be you. As for the undead, we will need to destroy them as quickly as possible. We will go out in full force. The main force will consist of me, Lillia, Ancient Tamal, Gemini, and the Death Guards. This should be enough. Tina, Clance, Bret, and Mike, you will lead the rest of Destiny City to prepare for defense. If our forward group is unable to keep things under control or we are attacked from our backs, we will need you two on the front lines."
"Understood." Tina and Clance replied at the same time.
"Okay, no time to waste. Let's get moving!" Blake finished speaking before leaving the meeting room.
Ancient Tamal and the rest quickly followed after Blake. King Frondor stood there wondering if he could help. When Tina saw him standing there, she smiled and said: "If you wish to help, then you can. We can always use another powerful ally on the front lines."
"No problem! It has been a while since I have stretched my claws." King Frondor fist bumped his chest as he said this.
Tina laughed and replied: "That is only if they allow us to do anything. Let's just say that the strongest existences in this world known as of now are all currently flying towards the front lines. They make us look like babies still in their mother's womb."
Tina had to admit that even though she had evolved, she was maybe on par with the beast king. She was nowhere near Blake and Lillia's levels. Not yet, anyway.
Blake and his group quickly arrived at the front lines and frowned. When they saw the massive army pushing down trees in the forest laying waste to the land. The air of death filled the area and was giving rise to even more zombies. "This is a bit more than I had expected…."
"It seems many more zombies have been born…." Lillia frowned when she saw this.
"It doesn't matter. Even before your time, undead roamed the world. It is a natural thing for mana to give birth to the undead. Only those undead lucky enough to retain the memories of the past will be able to gain proper sentience. But those who have long had their brains eaten or destroyed would only turn into this. But under this necromancy thing, it seems to make them mindless even if they still have memories left in their brains. But I have a way of dealing with them quicker. Let me inject the spell into your minds. As for Tamal, you will need a second contract placed on you to never give out any spells or techniques you learn from our destiny city." Gemini was strict on this. She would not let any harm come to her new home or the people her husband wished to protect.
"Understood." Ancient Tamal was fine with contracts being placed on him as long as he could protect his Meimei-chan! To him, his new life was something he was fully enjoying. He had never had such fun while in the dragonic clan. That place was like an ice box. Everyone was cold to one another, and only strength mattered. But now, he had found his true calling.
