[VRMMO] Dead One Chapter 583 - 584 – Continent of chaos – Part 4

[Current location: Elven kingdom / Empire border]

"…"

(Dense ass forest, eh?) – thought ClownFrog while flying high above the forest.

(The entire elven kingdom isn't just giant ass forest…. But I honestly even see the open area in front as well…. But I guess that forest at front is sothing like defensive line, eh?)

(…. Honestly, considering how big of a ss they were making in the empire, they must have already set up their defenses. Maybe they have soldiers here hiding or they are just on lookout. Either of those options would result in my presence here getting exposed.)

"…"

"But who gives the shit?!" – said ClownFrog before then flying above the elven forest.

"…"

"!"

"Sir! Out scouts just reported in!" – said the elven soldier.

"They saw a humanoid figure flying above us and going right past us!"

"…"

"Did they got visual?" – asked the elven knight.

"No sir. The target was too far away." – said the soldier.

"All we could tell that it was humanoid with wings."

"…"

"Send out the hippogriff riders! Now! I don't care what that thing is, I want it gone!" – shouted the elven knight.

"Yes sir!"

"…."

"?"

(Sothing is flying towards ?) – thought ClownFrog as his detection skill picked up several targets from his right, causing him to look and spot few hippogriff in the distance that were being rode by the elves.

"Target in sight!" – said the hippogriff rider.

"Prepare to intersect the target!"

"!"

"WAIT! SIR! THIS IS- "

The elves with the binoculars tried saying sothing, but as soon as he did, a barrage of flying skulls suddenly ca and bombarded the elven riders, blowing them and causing so of the hippogriff riders to get taken down,.

"!?"

"THEY ARE ATTACKING!" – shouted the hippogriff rider that sohow avoided the explosion.

"We- "

ClownFrog suddenly picked up the hippogriff rider off his mouth like nothing, lifting him up away from his beast.

"Where is your queen?" – asked ClownFrog.

"!?"

"Y-you bastard! You are demon lord?!" – said the elf that was getting chocked, who then noticed his beast companion coming back, trying to attack ClownFrog from behind.

However, without even looking, ClownFrog just aid with his staff at the beast, before unleashing a blast of fire that roasted the beast alive and then fell down as the elf watched.

"I won't repeat myself. Where is she?"

"!"

"RUN FOR IT!" – shouted the captured hippogriff rider, before monts later the remaining hippogriff riders began flying away, trying to run away and inform the elves about the situation.

"…"

"[Sleeping Blizzard]."

ClownFrog unleashed an giant storm of snow in all directions that catched up to the riders that tried to get away, freezing them on the spot, before monts later every single rider started falling down as frozen sculpturer.

"So, again." – said ClownFrog before grabbing the elf arm with his tail and just breaking it in half, causing the elf to scream in agony.

"Where is the queen? Is she in the capital city?"

"YES! SHE IS IN THE CAPITAL CITY! SHE NEVER LEFT!" – said the elf.

"…"

"Okay." – replied ClownFrog before then opening his mouth extrely wide in front of the elf and then just chopping his head off.

"That is all I needed to know." – said ClownFrog before then flying off.

ClownFrog continue flying through the skies of the elven kingdom for quiet long amount of ti.

However, his presence was already found out by the elven scouts that saw the entire encountered, causing elven army to deploy their hippogriff riders as well as giant hunter hawks to take down the demon lord.

"…"

"Fuck it."

However, they understated the beast as it took on his dragon form and just obliviated entire battalion of the elven sky riders.

Boulder fallen.

Bones flew.

Thunders roared.

Lava burseted.

It was a massacre.

The entire squadron of the hippogriff riders accompanied by the giant hunter hawks were just tore to shreds by the demon lord

However, this caused a giant ss that not only revealed the exact location of his to the elves, but also made both the queen and the main army fully aware that the demon lord had managed to get inside the kingdom …. But it was too late.

Demon lord had arrived at the city of Marax.

"…"

"…"

"?"

"Mommy? What is that thing?" – asked elven girl.

"?"

The mother looked up, only to see an ginormous wave of necrotic fire coming from above, burning everything and eve body in the city center to death.

The sudden attack caused instantly panic among the civilians…. But it also made them question who did it…. Which resulted in so people instantly looking up in fear to see what had caused it…. Only to see a giant dragon accompanied by the horde of flying monsters that were keep multiplying….. Before monts later they all began coming down, attacking anything and anybody they see.

"Shit! Enemy attack! Raise the alarms!" – shouted the city guard, before then getting squashed to death as ClownFrog just landed on top of him.

"Bla your greedy queen for this." – said ClownFrog before then summoning a horde of undeads that started chasing and murdering them, before monts later they were resurrected as undeads.

ClownFrog went on completely rampage upon arriving at the city.

He started blasting magic left and right, destroying buildings with ease while sending out the hordes of his monsters to chase down the city citizens.

So of the city guards and knights alongside few players that were in the town tried fighting back, hunting down the undeads and giving civilian chance to evacuate…. But all of them were just burn to death by the ClownFrog, before then having their corpse join the hunt.

….

It was a nightmare.

The ClownFrog sudden attack had caught the entire city completely off guard, resulting in not only the destruction spreading through the whole city, but also resulting in a undead epidemic to be present in every corner of the city.

And as the ti went by, all sights of life in the city had been completely exterminated.

The entire city was completely conquered by demon lord ClownFrog.

[Current location: Elven capital city.]

"Marax city was conquered?! How?!" – shouted the elf elder.

"…"

"Demon lord ClownFrog…." – said the elven knight.

"According to the survivors…. The one that was behind everything was the demon lord…."

"He devastated the entire center of the city, before then unleashing a horde of monsters that rained down from the skies…. Afterwords…. All the civilians… The guards… Anybody that were murdered…. They were turned into undeads…."

"The demon lord has turned the entire city into the graveyard."

"…"

"Can we even trust this report?" – asked young high elf.

"Don't take wrong, but even if he was a necromancer and everything, there is no way a single individual could have done everything!"

"…"

"And you are forgetting that the said individual is a "demon lord", right? Specifically, a one who is known as the "Dead One", the one who leads death legions whenever he goes and also being the very sa person that murdered the Hell Lord in the past?" – said the elderly female high elf.

"Still…. This is far more dangerous than we had thought…. You are saying that the entire Marax city was turned into undead graveyard?"

"Yes… According to the survivors, the demon lord has turned anybody that had fallen in or near the city into undeads…." – said the elven knight.

"…"

"But why Marax?" – said the elderly male elf.

"The demon lord was able traverse our kingdom quiet quickly before we had received the warning about his presence in the kingdom…. But why exactly Marax? This don't make sense."

"?"

"What do you an?" – asked young high elf.

"I an… Look at the map…. Shouldn't he had attacked the capital city instead? Marax is one of the nearest city to us." – said the elderly elf.

"…"

"Because Marax was undefended." – spoke up queen suddenly.

"The Marax isn't located anywhere near frontlines, so there was no point having an army being deployed there or anywhere near it…. Simple put, this entire city wasn't filled with proper soldiers but instead just civilians…. And that was his goal."

"His plan is simple."

"Create an army."

"!"

"Wait, you are saying that the reason why he attacked Marax was to create an army of monsters inside our own kingdom?!" – asked worried high elf.

"No matter how we look at this, that was his goal." – replied the queen.

"But the problem is that we don't know what he would do next."

"Marax is one of the cities that are nearest our capital, but even so, there is quiet long distance between us and that place."

"Demon lord currently have 4 options."

"First is to just stay in place and just threaten us with his presence, causing panic and fear to spread."

"The second option would be for him to march towards the capital city alongside his brand new army."

"Third option would be with him going back ho, trying to attack our own army from behind while the Garog empire army would join in from the front."

"And fourth option would be with him just ordering his monsters to spread around and attack anything they see."

"Honestly speaking, the option 2 and 4 are the most problematic."

"There is also another thing we would also need to be wary about."

"It is the demon lord mobility."

"He can travels way more distance than we had thought in short span of ti."

"There is a good chance that he may went with option 2, sending his army of undeads, while he himself would quickly launch another attack on another settlents, replenishing the undeads that would get destroyed by us."

"He could repeat that process over and over, wearing us down before then destroying us personally."

"!"

(But still… I guess I miscalculated…. I've thought that the demon lord was much weaker…. Not only that, I was not expecting him to just fly above our kingdom like nothing…. I've received reports about the scouts and hippogriff riders that had encountered him… So were able to survive… While others were brutally killed off…. To the point it was too much?)

(He was standing out… According to the reports, he flew here in his humanoid form, probably to stay hidden… But then why did he eliminated every single hippogriff rider he had encountered? Did he wanted to get found?)

"…"

(What is that bastard planning?)
