The First Legendary Beast Master novel Chapter 910

Chapter 910 Excess Energy

Karl gave the demon an amused smile. "Oh, I am already on it. They might have created twenty portals, but we have a Cara."

Cara looked up from beating a skeleton's face in with its own shield when she sensed her name being mentioned.

[Is it time to close the portals now?] She asked.

[Yeah, there's nothing there. Not even loot.]

Those were magic words, and the first three portals were closed within a second of each other. That served as a signal to the mages of the two units, and they began taking down the rest of the portals, while Karl [Nullified] the two closest to himself, then resummoned the Lamia pair, so they didn't accidentally bring a curse back with them.

He might not know what a Totem Ranked Necromancer was capable of, but a lingering curse didn't seem unrealistic. In fact, he wouldn't be surprised if they spent weeks cleaning the lingering curses and unholy magic from this battlefield, even with Delilah, Tessa and Lotus working together.

{Leave one portal. It is feeding the Undead. If we close them all, we leave a reserve of power for the Necromancers to draw on.} Delilah shouted as Cara was about to close the last of the portals.

The Void Badger was starting to like this dragon. She knew what was important. You didn't just defeat the enemy, you had to remember to troll them and extract maximum amusement value before you finished them.

Delilah would have been somewhat horrified to know that was how the Badger thought of her. The decision that she made was purely strategic, with the larger nationwide war in mind. The psychological effect of having drained their reserve of mana wasn't even a consideration when the act was already a strategic necessity.

Now that there was only one portal open, Karl could clearly feel the flow of power from it to the undead army, as well as to the area over the battlefield, where it lingered like a miasma, except for four distinct areas.

Over the village, where Lotus was set up as a healing tree to provide treatment for the injured.

Over Thor and Tessa, who were wielding Holy Magic like a rampaging force of divine justice.

Under Priestess Delilah as she passed above the battlefield.

And finally, around Karl, who still had [Consecrated Ground] active.

But the way that they power was building, if they didn't spread this effect, there could be real issues as it began to corrupt the soldiers. There might be something that they could do, Karl thought. {Hey Tessa, take Thor and your group to the last portal. Your Holy Magic auras and spells should help cleanse the miasma that is coming in with the Unholy Power. Even just keeping [Consecrated Ground] cast over the portal area should be fine.} Karl messaged the War Cleric.

They were the closest to the final location, other than Cara, who wasn't capable of casting the spell that they needed this time.

Overhead, Hawk was glowing with an immense amount of ghostly green flame, a second sun in the sky, too bright to look at as he prepared. _{freёwebnovel.com}
