Chapter 1140 Despair Amidst Chaos
-----
"PRINCE GUSTAAAAVVV!"
David went insane as he tried to carve his way through hundreds of Undead at once, his holy light surging endlessly, burning through the monsters as he tried to push himself through them.
However, constantly, more and more Undead appeared, grabbing him, and dragging him back! Even Planta's Spirits and Plants were unable to stop the sheer amount, as their Nether and Demonic Miasma infected the spirits and plants, weakening them.
He saw how one of those bastards, part of the trio of Forgery Brothers had kidnaped the prince right below the King and the Queen's noses, using a powerful ability that wielded shadows to their will, and with slimy, miasmic tentacles, wrapping them around the boy and dragging him away into a pool of darkness.
Then, he saw the monster slowly move away, resembling nothing but a tiny black dot in the entire battlefield, which was easy to miss, but that David had not missed, his eyes were fixated on the moving dot of darkness, which had already reached the seat area.
It was soon going to leave the arena!
"I cannot move away my eyes from him, if I do, he'll be lost forever!" he roared. "Dammit... Dammit...! DAMMIT!"
As he kept slashing away, the rest of the paladins and magic knights remained close to him. Aside from a dozen paladins, there were also his young recruits which had been brought to see the event.
They were all his apprentices, powerful and talented young magic knights which Planta and her team had met before.
"Sir David, please calm down! Don't strive too far on your own! These monsters have been enhanced with tremendous amounts of demonic energy! They're not mere creatures!"
Joustin, a boy with short blonde hair, wearing glasses and wielding a pair of swords that unleashed powerful gusts of emerald winds, called for David as he slowed down an incoming wave of Undead.
"This is abnormal! The Undead had particularly concentrated around us, they're doing this on purpose, so they can comfortably kidnap the prince!"
Heshmerie, a tall, muscular red-haired boy swung his giant blade, encompassed on his Sword Aura in the shape of flames, cutting through the aberrations as much as he could.
"SIR DAVID! PLEASE WAIT!"
Patricia, a beautiful noble lady with golden eyes and pink hair made into twin tails constantly tried to chase David, unleashing a storm of petals with her powerful and precise rapier attacks. Seeing David losing his mind as hundreds of Undead rushed towards him made her try to chase him down into the hellish battlefield even more.
"Patricia! Don't be foolish!"
"We have to remain together; you can't go on your own!"
And then a pair of twins with long blue hair and golden and silver colored eyes respectively stepped in, both of them wielding spears and whose Auras resembled swirling liquid water constantly protected Patricia from incoming blows. They were Emerette and Juliette.
"But if we stay here he's going to die!" Patricia said. "We have to do something!"
She suddenly found herself surrounded by giant Bone Wyverns, the monster inhibiting everyone from flying into the skies using movement techniques or magic.
Two paladins had already tried flying, only to get torn to pieces by countless bone wyverns that caught them and attacked them.
Not even the sky was safe!
"PATRICIA! DON'T!"
As the atmosphere only grew more tense, suddenly!
RUMBLE!
"GRUOOHHHH!"
A gigantic Undead Chimera surged amidst the Undead, a creation made by fusing over fifty of them.
A Level 330 threat!
"Careful!"
David threw the King away, using his shield to protect everyone from an incoming claw attack that could crush them all to death!
CRAAASH!
An explosion of Nether and Miasmic Demonic Energy erupted, engulfing David as it slowly began to overpower his Holy Light Aura!
"T-This is impossible! How strong is this thing- ARGH!"
As David and everyone else despaired, something suddenly emerged.
The ground trembled yet again, this time, however, it was much different than before!
RUMBLE!
Countless wooden roots surged, wrapping around the chimera's body and then shattering it into countless pieces within mere seconds.
Crack, crack...!
CRASH! Experience tales at empire
As this happened, everyone saw a figure emerge out of nowhere, a woman made of wood and covered on a silver armor of scales, emanating a powerful rainbow-colored Spiritual Aura.
"P-Planta?!"
David gasped as he saw his savior.
It wasn't the original Planta, but one of her Yggdrasil Avatars, sharing her mind and soul.
"My familiars! Go!"
She summoned her Divine Familiars, as the gigantic beasts started ravaging dozens of Undead at once, clearing a path.
"I'll go look for Gustav, you remain here!"
She quickly jumped away, chasing after the black dot that was escaping.
