"Your Excellency! We are willing to submit! Please don't destroy us!"
After hearing Mako's words, the three most powerful Ghosts, who were in the lead, shouted at him.
Following that, they and the other one hundred or so Ghosts behind them all knelt on one knee, reciting oaths of allegiance to Mako.
However, there were still some Ghosts glaring at Mako with resentment, as if they were still considering a last-ditch effort!
Danni Filint and the other two also noticed their peers eyeing them with hostility. But before they could react, they saw a terrifying pressure erupt from Mako!
Ding! Congratulations to the host for completing the hidden quest, 'Tumor' on the Magic Array. You have received resource rewards: Gold 10000, Wood 10, Ore 10. Ding! A large number of Ghosts admire your power and wish to join your ranks. Do you accept? Ding! It is detected that the host is in a non-physical state and cannot normally accept undead troops...
"Ding! Initiating forced integration function, importing Valerian Magic System, importing Forest Child Magic System, importing Necromancer Magic System, importing Rune Magic System, importing War Cry Magic System!"
With a "boom," a flood of information, like a breached dam, surged into Mako's soul.
Endless information and consciousness, driving the massive amount of magic within Mako's body, seemed to have strange consciousnesses infiltrating his soul.
Mako's body slowly transformed into a Blood Mist, and blood-red energy Blood Tentacles rapidly struck at the Ghosts.
Danni Filint and her two companions nearby were terrified by this terrifying scene, able only to watch helplessly as those dreadful blood-red energies captured them one by one.
The remaining Ghosts howled, trying to escape, but found themselves held in place by a powerful pressure, unable to move a single step. They could only watch as the Blood Tentacles captured them!
One after another, these Ghosts were bound in the sky by the Blood Tentacles that had manifested from Mako.
With a "boom!" The Blood Mist suddenly exploded violently. After the intense light dissipated, Mako reappeared before the eyes of the many Ghosts.
Mako's state was also extremely strange at this moment. His silver hair had turned blood red, and his eyes shimmered with purple light, seemingly constantly absorbing the surrounding energy.
A pair of massive Wings also appeared behind Mako, red as if they were about to drip blood. The Wings were laced with blood-red energy lines, which were the origin of the blood-red Blood Tentacles in the sky.
Mako's body, which had grown even taller, was covered in armor that looked like yellow crystal. Numerous palm-sized runes were attached to it, shining with a bright yellow light.
At this moment, various magical powers of different attributes surged through Mako's body. They counteracted each other, regenerated, and formed a bizarre balance.
Mako suddenly opened his palm, and a basketball-sized sphere of light suddenly appeared in his hand. Under Mako's magical power, the sphere's volume grew larger and larger.
With a loud "boom," the sphere of light suddenly exploded. A massive amount of luminous energy continuously gathered in the air, gradually forming a huge 12-Pointed Star Array.
Mako's blood-red Wings gently flapped, and he slowly flew to the center of the Magic Array.
Mako's eyes, which emitted purple light, slowly scanned the newly formed Magic Array, and finally turned his head towards Danni Filint.
The short-haired female Ghost, still struggling against the Blood Tentacles, suddenly felt a wave of fear wash over her. Her spectral form trembled, seemingly terrified.
"Boom!"
Before Danni Filint could react, a powerful force yanked her into the center of the Magic Array.
Within the 12-Pointed Star Array, Danni Filint was now bound by a massive Cross Light Array.
Danni Filint's face was etched with terror as she desperately pleaded with Mako above. She believed Mako was seeking revenge for what had just happened!
But Mako didn't hear a single word of her pleas, as the forces within him continued to clash and struggle!
"Argh!"
Mako roared, the feeling of helplessness filling him with rage.
After that roar, an even more powerful force suddenly erupted from his body, instantly suppressing the various magical powers of different attributes back into his soul!
Following that, Mako's aura abruptly changed, appearing very gentle. He looked at the short-haired girl in front of him and said with a smile:
"There was a slight mishap just now, but it seems you can't leave here with me anymore. Thankfully, I've thought of another way: combining you all together!
Become an even more powerful individual! Rejoice! My loyal followers, you will become the most powerful undead creature in this world!"
Although Mako's consciousness had returned to normal, and control of his body had been restored.
However, those magical energies with different attributes seemed to contain the consciousness of certain powerful beings, and some of their emotions still influenced Mako's behavior.
Upon hearing Mako's words, the numerous Ghosts panicked, constantly cursing, insulting, and begging for mercy.
These strange emotions made the entire space incredibly noisy, making it extremely irritating.
Mako snorted coldly, the Blood Tentacles striking out with a burst of energy, silencing all the Ghosts' cries.
"You are already dead, no longer belonging to this world. Those who choose to serve me, obey my commands! Those who resent me, be destroyed!"
"Anyway, your final fate is to be devoured by the strongest one, haha! Fate is truly unpredictable! In the end, you will all meet this outcome!"
After saying this, Mako manipulated the powerful blood-red energy within his body, beginning to carve the Magic Array.
"Danni Filint! Your troubled fate has made you hate this world. Continue on! Pain, hatred, destruction!"
Mako's voice gradually became frenzied and eerie, the madness and slaughter within the blood-red energy seemingly influencing him.
But the incantation had already begun; he couldn't stop, nor did he want to, because he knew he could create an extremely powerful undead creature this time.
Danni Filint, bound in the center of the Magic Array, was in immense pain. The Ghosts she had once devoured were now slowly consuming her soul.
The pain, which struck directly at her soul, completely unleashed the hatred she had suppressed.
"Ah! Die! Die! You all deserve to die! Ah!"
Danni Filint's crimson eyes suddenly blazed with a ghostly blue flame. This flame didn't free her from her predicament; instead, it intensified the agony she felt in her soul.
Feeling the resentment emanating from Danni Filint, Mako nodded in satisfaction. His aura slowly shifted, transforming into a different state!
"The inconstancy of rivers shall bless you, granting you an immortal body; the violence of flames shall empower you, granting you the power of destruction;
The vastness of the earth shall bless you, granting you endless vision; the swiftness of storms shall protect you, granting you a sharp form; the roar of thunder shall safeguard you, granting you limitless power;
Rainbows... mists... desolation...; the dead... life... plants...; animals... mountains... oceans... past... future."
As the incantation echoed, one Ghost after another was pulled into the Magic Array by Blood Tentacles, utterly obliterated by the powerful magic, transforming into pure life energy to activate the points of the array.
Danni Filint had transformed into a crimson giant. Enhanced by the magic array, her soul's strength had reached a terrifying level.
The Cross Light Array seemed barely able to contain her. Her powerful body was almost bursting the array, yet she was still bound in the center, unable to break free.
"I will make you die!"
A terrifying force erupted from Danni Filint's huge body. The sound waves from her roar were like a physical attack, slamming towards Mako.
A chilling killing intent locked onto Mako, seemingly aiming to kill him with this single strike.
Mako's burning purple eyes slowly turned to Danni Filint, a hint of disdain on his face.
His aura shifted again, crimson energy surging, as if ready to erupt!
Mako said coldly, "Is this all the power of your rage? You disappoint me. The battle continues! The army's soul endures! Kill!"
Wrath of Ten Thousand Armies
As Mako shouted the word "kill," an even more terrifying aura erupted from him.
Immediately afterward, the blood-red energy surged towards Danni Filint's massive form, accompanying Mako's roar.
Boom! Boom!...
A series of rapid explosions tore her immense body apart. Each blast transformed the Ghosts within her into pure energy.
Many powerful Ghosts tried to break free from her form and escape, but it was futile. Each time they attempted to flee, the power of the Magic Array forced them back.
Gradually, Danni Filint's giant soul-form shrank, being compressed back to a normal state.
The Magic Array acted like a sculptor, continuously absorbing the escaping life energy and using it to repair Danni Filint's shattered body.
In a short while, Danni Filint returned to a normal human size, but her appearance was now extremely strange, with three heads sprouting from her shoulders.
Through their outlines, one could vaguely recognize Sherrit Tamptun and Kort Leswell, who were constantly roaring and muttering incoherently.
Mako looked at her and saw three different colored energies continuously battling within Danni Filint's soul, seemingly trying to tear her body apart.
Mako watched this bizarre scene, his face devoid of any expression, as the magical attributes on his body shifted again.
Before long, a string of strange chains made of runes flew out from Mako's body.
Guided by Mako, the rune chains tightly bound Danni Filint's nearly split soul.
As the chains wrapped around her, the roars of the other two souls gradually weakened, eventually disappearing completely.
Mako continued to chant, "The oath-breaking king! His pain and hatred will make you immensely powerful; the oath-keeping knight! His helplessness and bitterness will make you fearless;
"Warrior of sorrow! No one understands the meaning of pain better than you, nor does anyone understand hatred better! Your soul shall continuously ascend, and the runes will make you even stronger!"
The chains formed of rune energy were dyed red bit by bit, and the rune chains gradually merged into Danni Filint's body.
Crimson energy overflowed outwards, and finally solidified, turning into a humanoid chrysalis made of crystal.
After taking shape, it greedily absorbed all the surrounding energy, even the energy generated by the Magic Array was devoured by it little by little.
The Cross Light Array that sealed it also began to crumble bit by bit, as if it was about to disappear.
Mako looked at this greedy undead creation, and was slightly dissatisfied. With a thought, he directly launched a Soul Link towards the crystallized Danni Filint.
As soon as the two connected successfully, a chilling energy attacked Mako.
"Ah!"
The oily, green, wave-like energy surged towards Mako. This attack was filled with negative emotions, and Mako felt a deep sense of malice!
"Roar!"
A clear dragon's roar exploded within the space. Mako beat his Wings, filled with boundless rage, and charged towards the red Crystal Cocoon.
Mako's right hand easily sliced through the tough Crystal Cocoon, gripping Danni Filint's neck and pulling her out.
At this moment, Danni Filint was completely naked, her body flickering between real and illusory states. The various powers in Mako's hand were constantly shifting, preventing her from breaking free.
Mako said to her, "I created you, and I can also destroy you. You don't think you're already stronger than me, do you?
I know you've completed your evolution. Being too greedy isn't a good thing, huh!"
After Mako said this, a magic book appeared in his hand. Mako carefully studied the two skills of the Necromancer, chanting the final incantation.
"You shall gain eternal life, you shall obtain an undying body, embrace death, control pain, and command hatred!"
As the last syllable fell, Danni Filint in Mako's hands turned into a wisp of dark green energy, which was absorbed into the magic book.
"Ding! Congratulations to the host for creating a powerful undead creature. Creature abilities: Undying, infinite resurrection, incorporeal, Banshee's Howl, Torment (Level 10), Vampiric Strike (Level 15)..."
"Ding! As the host's level increases, the abilities of this summoned creature will further improve. Please continue to work hard!"
"Ding! Congratulations to the host for improving Necromancer abilities, all three exclusive skills have been obtained, rewarding the host with an item, the Banishing Ring."
"Banishing Ring, heroes can use the banish skill to reduce the effect of enemy summoning magic. (Effective against wight and ghoul magic.)"
"Ding! A new type of undead creature has appeared, please name it. Rewards: Gold 1000, Mercury 1."
Mako spoke:
"Hecate!"
