Chapter 160 The Headless Horde



Stay updated through My Virtual Library Empire

The next day, everyone was ready to do their part in training. Logan stood beside Ms. Claire, who was now used to ordering the troops around. Three of the soldiers were training to stay on top of the Inferno Raptors as they moved.

Others were mounted on either Basilisks or Bears, depending on their element. For fire monsters, a wind user was the most effective to increase their power.

For water creatures, they were paired up with an earth user to provide more mobility for the heavy bears and complement their defense.

For those mages on top of the basilisks, they had to be able to use either fire or water magic. This combination was great for increasing their range of abilities.

Smaller, light mages were paired with Eagles. In this case, water was perfect for creating ice spears to throw from above. Fire was thought to be good at first, but it was hard to control without harming an eagle.

Since Rocs were easy to find in the wild, many had been bought or captured to increase the cavalry unit. The large birds were under the care of two monarchs. One of them was Chloe's bird, which was powered up and made the queen of the two-legged large birds.

The second monarch roc bird was under the care of Valor, a man who rose in ranks to be one of Logan's generals. His strength was unmatched by the other soldiers, falling short only of Chloe and Kai, who were empowered by being Logan's tamed.

Kai was particularly jealous of the man who spent a lot of time with Chloe. Valor seemed to harbor some feelings for the girl, creating a challenging love triangle that Logan had to keep an eye on in the future.@@novelbin@@

As far as training went, the troops had adjusted to the tamed monsters and would protect them with their lives if needed, knowing the beasts would do the same for them.

Many friendships were forged between monsters and soldiers, making Logan's force not only powerful but also holding many advantages on the battlefield.

Having someone to watch out for your back in a fight increased both motivation and a greater will to fight.

Everything was going great, and everyone was even ready to have lunch when Logan heard a voice from above.

"Master, monsters are acting strange…" Zephyr flew near from above. Logan looked towards the bird in the sky with a serious expression. He made his wings manifest and flew up to see where Zephyr was calling from.

"Kai, start the alarm. We may have some problems brewing," Logan called out to his knight, who knew what to do.

As soon as Logan reached a certain point, Zephyr swooped down to bring him higher and faster than Logan could have managed alone.

Logan was flown near where Zephyr spotted something weird. It was a few kilometers from where the town stood.

There, he began seeing headless monsters walking like zombies towards Highcrest. There were thousands of them.

Logan asked Zephyr to use his strongest magic to create a strong vortex forward. He began using Infernal Wrath to empower the great wind with fire magic as it went through the plain filled by undead.

Each one burst after being hit by the first tornado, causing it to only kill a few hundred before it could no longer hold itself with each explosion of mana produced by the undead bodies.

"This will be hard… if we get too close they will explode, causing harm, while if we let them advance to bring our troops it will be hard to fight near the walls," Logan thought to himself.

Being undead, he thought of another possibility and began to charge up Holy Nova. An orb of radiant light manifested before Zephyr as Logan poured all of his mana into it. He wanted to see just how deadly this new magic would be. It was probably going to be Lisa's strongest skill for a while.

Before releasing it, he cast Celestial Blessing, Mana Surge, and any other buffs he could gain before using the powerful spell.

Soon he released it like an atomic bomb towards the undead below, who kept advancing without fear.

Within a few seconds of the orb falling towards its target, a large light shone, rivaling even the sunlight in radiance.

Logan stood waiting to see what the outcome would be as the light faded after a minute. The boy didn't think it was normal but more like a chain reaction, similar to before, where the monsters' bodies blew up when in contact with magic.

After the dust settled, he saw that a few hundred, possibly even a thousand, were taken care of this time since the monsters did not try to defend themselves or fight back.

Still, the numbers that kept coming were more than enough to cause problems for his town.

"Lisa? I will need all those who can get on flying mounts to come. We have a few thousand headless mutations coming. I think this is only the first wave. Bring in Chloe to start making plans!" Logan called with his communication device.

"No problem, Logan. We have already begun to assemble," Lisa said from her device.

He then called Rubina, who would be more knowledgeable about the happenings within the town.

"Rubina, we need the town to be on alert. The demons' attack has begun. If possible, inform the surrounding towns. They have sent mutations. By the look of things, they are mindless beasts made to cause chaos. We can't face this first wave head-on."

After Logan finished contacting Rubina, he began drinking mana water to refuel his dwindled mana, trying to see a possible leader within the group.

"Alright, we have begun bringing in all those who were outside the walls. I will get in contact with Commander Biron from the nearby fort," Rubina said, hastily hanging up to make calls.

Logan got ready to recast the spell he had done, trying his best not to overload his core before the battle started.

It was a good thing that after reaching level 40, their cores had become stronger and larger. He felt the difference just now that he had used the large-scale magic.
