Chapter 87
Chapter 87: Leaping Slash
Sophia was the first to launch an attack. After analyzing the slime’s characteristics, she waved her staff, and the magic circle she condensed sprayed out bullet-like acidic liquid, sweeping toward the slime.
The dense green acid connected into lines. The slime’s body was instantly dissolved, and the faces on its surface rapidly shriveled as masses of black mist surged out.
Charging through the mist, Dane let out an angry roar. His axe blade, carrying immense explosive force, chopped through the tentacles. Then he leapt fiercely into the air, raised his giant axe, and released an earth-shaking blow straight down at the slime just as it was about to recover its form.
The highly elastic slime had no time to rebound. Countless chunks of blood and flesh exploded apart with a boom. From John’s palm, countless holy spears formed from golden light came sweeping over like a storm, accurately locking onto the airborne blood chunks and disintegrating them one by one.

After restoring its enormous form, the slime wriggled and healed its wounds. Tentacles as thick as tree trunks lashed toward the group.
As the frontline fighters, Medivh and Dane immediately moved to meet them. They constantly increased their speed, the sword and axe in their hands bursting with cold light as they swiftly tangled with the tentacles, preventing the rear line from being disturbed.

As light and shadow danced, Charles, the archer and one of the finest members of the royal family’s guard, naturally refused to fall behind.
With a loud shout, he stomped and cracked the ground beneath his feet. His long brown hair fluttered in the wind, veins bulging across his arms layer by layer. His bowstring was drawn like a full moon, and arrows shot out one after another, stirring dazzling trails through the air.
And then came the ever-popular scene of an archer fighting the undead.
If the bone dragon had at least possessed bones that could be attacked, then arrows whose primary damage came from penetration seemed utterly harmless when they struck the highly elastic body of a slime that also possessed undead characteristics.

Not to mention, this was no ordinary slime. Its body was so huge that it could even treat the arrows as little wooden sticks inserted into its flesh. In moments, it completely absorbed the impact, then swiftly dissolved them inside its body.
With a thunderous boom, Dane was still sent flying dozens of meters away after being heavily struck by a tentacle because his sustained combat ability was lacking.
Green magic lit up. Under John’s healing, Dane quickly recovered his combat strength. He looked again toward Medivh. The old man’s sword techniques came out one after another, coordinating with the blades of light that kept firing from his staff. He had actually relied on his own strength to forcibly stop the slime from advancing any further.
Sophia ran around to the slime’s side, once again unfolded a magic circle, and sprayed out acid, rapidly splashing it across the slime’s body and dissolving large amounts of black mist.

Several tentacles attacked. Dane leapt forward and blocked Sophia’s front, smashing a tentacle apart with his axe. The tentacles snapped one after another, spraying out large amounts of foul-smelling flesh and blood.
The archer’s role was limited. John turned back and glanced at Oswald in the distance. After discovering that he had no intention of acting, John merely sighed and stepped forward, unfolding goddess magic.

Brilliant golden light lit up. Several-meter-long holy spears emerged at an angle in midair and continuously bombarded the mountain-sized slime. The light spears carried the might of goddess magic, instantly disintegrating its flesh and tearing apart the faces one by one, causing thick smoke to billow out.
After a fierce battle, the situation finally reached a stalemate. As the squad members gradually found their rhythm of cooperation, the slime’s massive body rapidly began to shrink.
It still had not taken a single step forward. From here on, victory would depend on which side could continue holding out.
Oswald sat on the fallen tree trunk, took out his pipe, and silently watched the show. However, his attention was soon drawn to the dazzling spell light inside the city wall.
What reached his ears was the dense sound of soldiers fighting.
Bang! Bang! Bang!

Discordant heavy impacts rang out once more.
The mages gathered on the city wall were extremely busy. With horrified expressions, they rose into the air one after another and continuously released dazzling spells toward the city gate.
The city gate was bleeding… Oswald’s hand, which was holding his pipe, paused. Amid the shaking, a broken bone pierced out, and immediately afterward, the city gate collapsed heavily.
When the dust scattered, a twisted, crawling mass of human bodies charged out of the Royal Capital on all fours, rushing toward the slime at astonishing speed.
The road looked as though it had been painted with a thick stroke of red ink. Upon that bloody ink were all kinds of broken human limbs, bouncing, rolling, and leaping forward.
They followed the human mass, ignoring the soldiers’ and mages’ frantic attempts to stop them, and rushed into the slime’s embrace.

With a splat, a mass of active entrails struck Sophia in the face. She turned back in panic and discovered that behind her was a mountain of corpses and a sea of blood rushing toward her.
“Spatial Confinement, deploy!”

Her staff pierced into the ground. A ripple violently pulled on space, and as it spread, everything before her seemed to slow. Finally, with a tremor of light, all the severed limbs and shredded flesh were sealed inside the confined space.
Sophia gasped for breath. The dizziness caused by rapid casting made nausea surge within her.
However, behind her, Dane was still blocking the tentacles’ bombardment for her. John, on the other side, was not so lucky.
His old bones were nearly smashed apart by the human mass. If Charles the archer had not pulled him away and swiftly brought him to a distant location, the Archbishop would probably have long since been submerged and devoured by the corpses.

The mages arrived in time to provide support. They blocked the city gate, rows of spell lights flaring as surging layers of magic cut off the endless corpse flow.
Black snow drifted down. The city had already become a complete mess. People discovered in terror that the corpses of the severe patients who had been executed were struggling free from the walls and beginning to move again.
Moreover, the symptoms of the infected were worsening at extreme speed. From time to time, an infected person on the street would vomit blood all over the ground, after which his body would twist and swell, and he would sprint toward the city gate as though he had lost consciousness.
The soldiers maintaining order were overwhelmed. They fell into pools of blood, then soon stood up again, their bodies rapidly mutating as they joined this bizarre carnival.

(I feel like I’m watching World War Z. System, are you sure this is a plague and not some kind of biochemical crisis?)
[Undead magic. Fascinating, isn’t it?]

Oswald silently took a puff of his pipe. If his own subjects became like this, his Dao heart would shatter…
On the city wall, Maria and the three others avoided the battle zone and arrived at the highest position.
Her pure white Saintess robe fluttered in the wind. Maria held the Wishing Star, and her whole body radiated gentle golden light.
Inside and outside the city wall was a painting of hell, yet she stood within the light, as though she were the savior of this suffering land.
Nicole and Thorne were both stunned for a moment. They had also discussed whether they should use the Wishing Star at this moment, but Maria’s holy face at this time made them absolutely certain that this was the best opportunity.
There was no achievement more eye-catching than turning back the collapsing tide and propping up a mansion on the verge of falling.

Now, the mutation caused by this plague had already led to the Royal Capital’s fall. Outside the city, even a squad formed by several powerful individuals could not quickly deal with the calamity that had taken shape.
However, as long as Maria eliminated the plague at this critical moment, all problems would be resolved like clouds scattered by the wind.
The incomparably dazzling light attracted the gazes of many people inside and outside the city. Even Frank, who stood before the palace, noticed the Saintess’ presence and fell into astonishment for a time.
The hopeful gazes of the survivors and John’s faint smile when he raised his head were all taken in by Maria.
The only thing she missed was Oswald’s icy gaze when he put away his pipe.
Holy Light shone upon the earth. She gripped the Wishing Star before her chest and called upon the goddess in her heart to listen to her wish.

Light illuminated the world. Vast Mana passed through the dark clouds, and hope descended at this moment.
Oswald raised his eyes and sneered coldly. Is this salvation, or destruction…

Under everyone’s gaze, that light vanished with a boom, and the world instantly fell into gloom. Hope shattered, and the wind still wailed in midair. Maria loosened her filthy hand and discovered that her palm was completely empty.
[Host, it’s gone! The disappearance of the item can only prove that this world has already lost the goddess’ power!]
Is that so? So there is no wishing anymore, and no divine interference either…
Oswald gently exhaled a cloud of thick smoke, his fingertips trembling beyond his control. In this second, many things came to his mind, from the bone club in a primitive human’s hand becoming a spaceship before it ever hit the ground, to how post-founding mythology no longer allowed beings to become spirits.

From “I think, therefore I am” to matter determining consciousness; from CG scenes in eroge to seeing heaven and earth, seeing himself, and seeing all living beings in reality.
Gods had merely created the races. This world had still formed along the orbit of the universe’s development. Nothing could dominate everything. No existence could transcend everything.
His mind was in chaos, uncontrollably thinking of all kinds of strange and bizarre things. Beneath his tyrannical smile, Eileen slowly drew her bone-tooth twin blades.
“The wish… failed?”

The four people on the city wall fell into confusion. What exactly had happened just now? The goddess’ Mana had clearly appeared, so why had it suddenly vanished again?
The roaring wind filled the air. Their minds were in such chaos that they did not hear Archbishop John’s urgent cry from afar.

John was the first to notice Oswald’s strange movement. He urgently activated goddess magic, and chains of light shot out of the ground, fiercely dragging down Oswald’s legs as he rose into the air.
Eileen completed her acceleration with a flash step. After exchanging a glance with Oswald, she turned and arrived in front of him.
By the time John wanted to stop her again, it was already too late. Stepping on the palm that the Duke held up for her, Eileen rose like a firework into the sky, her beautiful red hair revealing itself.
She crossed the city wall almost instantly. Under Maria’s panicked gaze, appearing together with Eileen’s cold face were two streaks of cold light that crossed past each other.
Flipping over and landing, Eileen stood lightly on the battlement and flicked the blood from her blades.
The world seemed to fall silent at that moment. Thorne and Nicole’s faces became incomparably pale, and their pupils trembled wildly.

There was only a soft thud as Maria’s head and body slowly separated. They staggered and fell from the city wall, followed by two heavy impacts.
“Miss!”
Nicole’s scalp went numb. Then, hearing a startled cry by her ear, she saw Wolf, who had flashed forward to block in front of her, have his chest split open on the spot. The terrifying wind pressure blew her to the ground, and blood poured over her with a rush.
Thorne reacted the fastest and drew his sword, narrowly avoiding Eileen’s sudden attack. Nicole snapped back to her senses, quickly stood up, pulled the spear from Wolf’s back, gritted her teeth, and charged at Eileen with an angry roar.
On the ground, Oswald, who had climbed the city wall a step too late, was already trapped in Archbishop John’s endless magical bombardment.
Maria’s corpse fell to the ground. Along with John’s painful cry, Oswald also took the opportunity to break free from his entanglement. With one slash, he shattered dozens of chains of light, then vanished from where he stood in the blink of an eye.

“Protect the Hero!”
Realizing the sudden situation, Sophia immediately released Spatial Confinement and activated flying magic on the spot. Spatial slashes grazed past Oswald one after another, cutting apart the flow of wind and forcing Oswald to land again.

Her expression was anxious. As she shouted to the mages, she rapidly approached Oswald, the staff in her hand flashing with light again and again.
“Secret order from the guildmaster! All mages of the Mage Association are to protect the Hero at any cost! I repeat, protect the Hero at any cost!”
