Everyone Is A Lord: My Talent Is A Little Too Strong Chapter 2664: 1465: Encirclement (Part 2)

Previously on Everyone Is A Lord: My Talent Is A Little Too Strong...
Leo Ray revealed to the gathered allies that the indistinct giant statue in the ruins, surrounded by Witch Demons, is likely a remnant of an Evil God—a minion or servant that has bewitched the leader Waters, rather than a mere statue in slumber. The group realized this entity forms the true backing behind the Witch Demons, explaining their coordinated assaults on multiple alliances without interference from nearby second-tier powers. As tensions mounted, they reflected on ancient battles against such malevolent forces and pondered why even first-class clans atop the Peak of the Ten Thousand Clans have overlooked this hidden threat, steeling themselves for a formidable confrontation.

With a subtle nod, Leo Ray replied: “Or maybe they’ve already spotted it, but that doesn’t guarantee they’ll intervene, since this location is distant from their domains.”

“Even if they possess ample power, as long as it doesn’t affect their benefits or pose a direct danger to them, they simply won’t bother getting involved.”

“The gods have departed long ago; it’s neither the Sun Era nor the Silver Moon Era anymore—nothing remains as it once was.”

A helpless smile crossed Leo Ray’s face as he went on: “If not, with the Great Catastrophe drawing near today, those at the pinnacle of the Ten Thousand Clans would have cast aside their grudges ages ago, rallying every faction to brace for the disaster, rather than just safeguarding their own and viewing the vulnerable as mere weights?”

Leo Ray’s words prompted Loris and Sina to nod in unison, showing their accord.

The Human Sovereign speaks truth; the Ten Thousand Clans did once stride through a radiant age side by side, yet now the gods are absent, the enigmas of the Blank Era persist, and all has transformed.

The whole realm appears cloaked in thick shadows, teetering on the brink of a dark chasm, though nobody can pinpoint the real origin.

For an instant, the air grew profoundly heavy once more, as all present quietly grieved inwardly.

“Friends, luckily, we still hold the power to alter this fate—that’s precisely what I’ve been striving for.”

Leo Ray’s resolute and commanding tone echoed anew, touching every listener: “At the very least, we can press on as one; we haven’t surrendered our optimism. As long as we stand firm here, clasping hands without letting go, that spark of hope will endure forever.”

As Leo Ray finished speaking, the group nodded in sync, their resolve reignited.

Even seasoned Gary and the other elites from the Broken Valley Alliance directed gazes brimming with admiration. At first, they’d been covertly stunned to learn this youthful Human Emperor was orchestrating it all, given the famed frailty of the Human Clan, which hadn’t ventured into the Outer Region yet.

Yet now, it’s clear the Human Clan has evolved beyond its former self, and this young Human Emperor rightfully claims the foremost position among them.

Guided by this Human Emperor, they might genuinely achieve vengeance, confronting the demons hiding in darkness and the Witch Demons who crushed them before.

“Your Majesty, see—Frank has shattered a section of the Barrier!”

Moments later, Yonir’s thrilled shout pierced the air, alerting Leo Ray: “We’re free to depart this place!”

“No moment to waste—let’s advance right away.”

At this, Leo Ray gave a nod to the trio of leaders, then, led by veteran Gary and the Broken Valley Alliance’s elites, they hastened onward along the route.

Soon enough, the path ahead cleared abruptly, the area swarming with thick black mist again, and Leo Ray found himself back on the surface.

Nearby stood the enormous ghostly white Witch Demon city, a clear sign that their group lingered close to the site of the earlier disturbance.

“Your Majesty of the Humans, the team has reassembled; just a handful of gravely wounded elites remain concealed in the Underground City for healing.”

Loris inclined his head toward Leo Ray while updating him.

“Your Majesty of the Humans, our side is set too, awaiting any orders from Your Majesty of the Humans.”

Veteran Gary advanced as well, yielding authority to Leo Ray.

“Got it—then, everyone, get ready. We’ll proceed to dismantle the foe’s Absolute Defense Barrier around their central city.”

Leo Ray clutched Rolanddel firmly, his tone steady and forceful.

During the prior clash in the Underground City, though some elites fell, incorporating veterans like Gary had boosted their might considerably, easing their progress.

Yet right after Leo Ray spoke, a torrent of arrows blanketed them from every side, joined by surging bone spears and necrotic spells, whipping up fierce winds of death.

Thanks to Little Jie’s Mita array, they erected the Absolute Defense Barrier instantly, and with ample energy feeding it, no lethal strikes landed at once—still, the barrage of arrows and spells raining overhead jolted the entire group.

“What’s happening? We’re obviously beyond the reach of their main city—did the enemies emerge from it?”

Sina creased her forehead, her pale features etched with gravity.

“I suspect the foes haven’t exited the city; scan the surroundings more carefully.”

While directing additional elites to fuel the barrier, Leo Ray gestured toward the black mist’s depths.

Tracing Leo Ray’s indication, the others discerned, amid the haze, faint ghostly white silhouettes, pulses of thick malice drawing nearer.

Clearly, their perimeter teemed with vast undead hordes, steadily closing in on their spot.

Against their near two-legion force, the enemy’s ranks appeared at least tenfold greater, sealing them in a vise.

“Lord, from the vibes I sense, there are no fewer than 20 Tier 4 Undead Legions present.”

Xiao Jing focused briefly before informing Leo Ray: “Plus, more undead forces are pouring in swiftly toward us, totaling scores of legions.”

“Yes, by the rhythm of their march, roughly a million are swiftly boxing us in right here.”

After tuning into the earth for a bit, Loris rose and verified.

“Has the undead force from the distant Skeleton Fortress reached us so soon? Evidently, the adversaries moved quicker than we predicted.”

Sina crossed her arms, her frown deepening: “It’s wave upon relentless wave.”

“The enemy’s pace outstripped our forecasts, and we squandered excessive time in the Underground City too.”

After eyeing the undead masses surging closer, Leo Ray drew in a measured breath.

Sina had it spot on—troubles kept piling up without end.

And at present, with the undead throng bearing down, they faced yet another bind.

Their power matched just 2 Tier 5 Armies, sufficient to counter the 20 Tier 4 Undead Legions now hemming them in.

In such a bind, even pouring everything into wiping out these 20 Undead Legions would leave them drained for assaulting the city, to say nothing of the reinforcements en route.

While Leo Ray pondered their next move, a gaunt lich etched with dark demon runes materialized on the lofty undead city walls, gazing down at their trapped ranks—it was the Witch Demon Leader from before.

A flicker of scorn and derision twisted the Witch Demon Leader’s desiccated visage, his chilling timbre booming across the heavens.

“Emperor of the Humans, I never thought you’d slip away from the Underground City; it’s a shock, but that’s the extent of it. Today, your doom is sealed!”

Once done, the Witch Demon Leader’s bloodshot eyes, seething with malice, locked onto veteran Gary and the Broken Valley Alliance’s elites, his tone laced with heightened slaughterous fury.

“You pathetic curs are endlessly tenacious—daring to challenge me once more in this foolish way is both infuriating and laughable.”

“Do you believe you can truly unsettle me? I crushed you utterly before, and today I’ll annihilate every one of you anew!”

With that proclamation, the Witch Demon Leader lifted his skeletal limb, directing the undead legions beneath: “Wipe out these insolent insects entirely!”

As the Witch Demon Leader’s spectral command faded, a torrent of lethal aura enveloped them, while myriad savage assaults ripped through the air, hurtling toward them from all angles once more.
