Supreme Magus novel Chapter 2798

Chapter 2798 Counter Measures (Part 2)

<nulli>'I am the only one who can recharge the Demons quickly, sure, but the more I use Invigoration on them, the less it works for me.' Lith sent Valia and Varegrave forward, expecting an ambush.

He wasn't disappointed.

Two Wendigos welcomed them with a Chilling Wail that froze the Demons and conjured an ice wall that cut the reinforcements off. Valia and Varegrave were prepared for something like that.

During the interrogation of the assassin unit sent to the Verhen Mansion, Lith had extracted from them the countermeasures that the Undead Courts had devised against his different forms.

Wendigos for the Dragon, Nightwalkers for the Abomination, and Blood Witches for the Tiamat.

The two former members of the Queen's Corps had moved forward while holding their breath so that when they exhaled, they released a burst of Origin Flames from all over their bodies.

The mystical flames turned the ice into steam, blinding the Wendigos from seeing the blades aimed at their intestines. Smashing the head or puncturing the heart of a Wendigo was useless.

Born from a person starving during a harsh winter to the point of feeding on the corpses of members of their own race, a Wendigo's weak point was the never-rotting flesh of their first victim.

Unless it was destroyed, the hairy undead would endlessly regenerate, given time and enough power in their blood cores. The blades failed to get past the Adamant armor of the undead but the darkness element coating them did.

Valia's opponent experienced discomfort while Varegrave's was unlucky.

The blow glanced at the right spot, causing the remnants of her first meal to rot. The Wendigo's strength plummeted and she tried to back down but the Demon of the Fallen kept pressing forward.

"Help me, dammit!" She screamed in fear as the eternity that had been promised to her slipped through her fingers.

Thralls and undead came to her aid but as soon as Lith's array-detecting spell and life-sensing array provided him with the information he needed, the rest of the He was close enough to help and support them, but also out of reach for the undead.

"Now!" A familiar voice shouted and the undead jumped to the side, uncaring if it left Demons stormed the room.

Having no idea how deep the building went and how many enemies he would face, Lith used the Demons for recon while he studied the situation from a safe distance. He was close enough to help and support them, but also out of reach for the undead.

"Now!" A familiar voice shouted and the undead jumped to the side, uncaring if it left them exposed to a blow.

A massive construct shaped like hands made of pure darkness reached the crowd of Demons, splitting into many smaller limbs that grabbed their respective targets and pinned them against the wall.

The Demons tried to shapeshift out of the restraints, but darkness could interact with darkness and the constructs shapeshifted along with them, blocking their escape.

The undead didn't miss the opening and poured their spells and bloodline abilities against the helpless Demons.
