Chapter 112: Death Knights are Summoned
She selected it as she walked out of the gate, and a huge map appeared in front of her, covering the whole field of vision for her. "Wow, this world is much larger than the world in my game," she exclaimed in shock while starting to study the map.
"Summon all the remaining skeletons and let them kill the monsters," she gave the order to her system as if she was ordering pizza!
'There are no monsters in the vicinity, the nearest monster is tens of miles away!' The system reply astonished her for a moment before chuckling. "So the areas I freed from their hands turned into a forbidden zone for them? that's a relief. Ok, summon my phoenix"
"Shriek!"
The next moment the bony phoenix appeared and she simply jumped over its body. "Take me to the last point I was at when I was fighting here during the last time."
The phoenix moved rapidly while she followed the red dot representing her moving from the lower east corner of the map. She knew how large the world was, and in the centre of it, a huge abyss was there veiled in black color. Juxta to it was a large city, the mythic Apidon city.
"So I need to go there and kill whatever looms inside, that seems quite hard at the moment," she sighed before moving her eyes to the border region. She was close to the border region, and luckily the direction she chose last time was towards this region, not towards the centre.
So, she covered around one percent of the distance remaining to reach the border. She still had a lot to do, but at least she started in the right direction.
She noticed the small red circles that scattered on the whole border, surrounding the world inside. Just looking at them in a whole gave her the impression of looking at an oval portal gate. "So these are my current targets, nice," she muttered before closing the map after confirming the direction she would head next to.
In less than ten minutes, she reached the place where she stopped last time. "Summon all the skeletons now," she murmured before raising her staff and muttering:
"Death summon!"
"Death summon!"
"Death summon!"
Just as she tasted the sweet effect of the liches, she decided to focus entirely on this skill alone. As for the death arise skill, she would store it for any formidable foes, or when there are enough liches around, then she would circle back to summon the fallen monsters; as any skeleton counted.
The first wave of the fight was really brutal and hard, especially when she used only a portion of her army, the remaining one; leaving the rest back at the leveling monster ground she created.
As for her system, it started selecting those worthy skeletons and turning them directly into liches. In hours a huge number of liches were present, and their role started to show its worth, making the fight quite favorable for Oya.
"Time to use the other skill then," she muttered as she returned the couple of miles her forces freed and started using her second skill.
"Death arise!"
"Death arise!"
"Death arise!"
The skeletons started to show up like sprouts growing from the ground, white not green. The world changed to be covered with a thick white smooth layer of carpet, a deadly carpet that showed no mercy to anyone or anything.
In half an hour, she managed to summon all the fallen monsters into skeletons, and her army had a good boost in strength and diversity of its units, making the fight much easier than before.
And when she finished that, she returned to use her first skill again.
"Death summon!"
"Death summon!"
"Death summon!"
The fight kept raging on for more hours, however in an hour or two, the fight started to take a one sided attitude. Her armies started to walk, then run, sweeping everything in their path, while widening the area of confrontation, forming a large growing arc that was heading directly towards the border region.
Oya stood over her phoenix when the leaders of the cities came, but she was quite busy this time so she didn't go and greet them at once. she was at the phase of building the foundation to invade the whole world, and such a meager strength she had wasn't even close to make her quite reassured.
So, she kept summoning, alternating between the two skills, while the liches army underneath her started to take form, numbering in tens of thousands at the end of the day.
'I have a proposition,' the system suddenly said, interrupting her actions and making her speechless for a moment there. "Say it," she replied.
'There is another unit you desperately need, and they also can summon skeletons as liches, in addition to that they can also lead them to charge towards the enemies, a very frightening unit, very deadly force,' the system explained, and its words made her more eager to try this force.
"What is it?" she asked. "Does Ibro have it?" she added, as she had grown this habit to take attention to things Ibro was interested in.
'He loves them as well, and they are the death knights,' the system said.
"Those weak death knights are this mighty?" she exclaimed in doubt.
'No, these are just a weaker version of them. Let me show you the real death knights. Use your summon skill,' the system said in a prideful tone.
"Sure, Death summon!"
The next moment a new batch appeared of skeletons, numbering in ten thousands. As they appeared, the system, per usual, selected a few and supported them to become liches, and this time it also selected another group and changed them into death knights.
These death knights were much different that the ones Oya was summoning so far; they were stronger, bigger, with thicker bones. Their horses had grey fire raging underneath and around their hooves. They held one or two greatswords, making their appearance quite scary with that hideous and terrifying helmet, armor, shields, and horse gears as well.
'These are the true death knights,' the system bellowed in pride and arrogant tone, however Oya didn't care much as these death knights were worth every penny!
"I want them, I want all of them!" she muttered in a greedy tone, even she was starting to drool over them. 'Hahaha, I told you, you will like them. sure, I will divert more energy to support them. keep summoning skeletons then.'
She didn't delay and started using the summon skill in a more exciting way. The skeletons she summoned were now diverted into three parts; one turned into liches, one into death knights, and the last turned into normal skeletons.
She observed these death knights, and as the system said, they could summon other skeletons; then led them on a mighty charge towards the enemies. their horses worked perfectly together, adding more dreadful momentum to their charge, taking them all over the battlefield, causing much chaos either by their swords, horses, or their unexpected skeletons summoned everywhere.
"I love them!" she shouted, as she started to fervently summon skeletons while looking for the newly formed death knights.

'I told you, Ibro also appreciated them and used them a lot,' the system said.
"Tell me, do you always know what Ibro is doing? Is he alright?" she finally asked the question that kept brimming inside her for such a long time.
'Don't bother yourself with him, I swear even if the whole universe turned on him he wouldn't find a problem killing them all!'
"Hehehe, that's my man, hehehe," Oya was really glad and feeling proud of Ibro. The system didn't say anymore and she didn't ask anything.
She then kept summoning new skeletons, while her system kept upgrading them, into liches and into death knights.
The fight wasn't that tough for her despite the rough start with a small number of skeletons this time, as her two ace units were doing the hard work of summoning skeletons and adding more to her army.
And her system kept upgrading her skeletons non-stop. The number of the skeletons kept escalating while she kept pushing them forward, widening the area of operations, while heading directly towards the outer region.
