Chapter 889 Intense Tower Defense
-----
Hector was wearing the Cursed Armor and the Bright Lance which I had infused into the Blue Slime with him. Now that the Slime was "upgraded" some time ago with divine power, the armor, and the weapon it could summon had become stronger as well, gaining divine elements to them, the black clad knight wielding a lance of light was demolishing his foes with fast movements, and resisting blows with amazing defense!
As I saw my group fight their way through the army of powerful Divine Power-enchanted Ogres created by the Frost Tower, a sudden tremor happened, startling everybody for a few seconds.
TRUUMMM…!
Without my expectations, things suddenly began to change for the worse, the left and right walls began to tremble as two enormous new tunnels opened. And from within… an army of beasts emerged, all of them rushing towards us to target the Orb we had to protect! The Second Wave of foes already began, and the first one had yet to even be finished.
These beasts didn't looked like the Ogres, they looked more feral and animal-like, after discerning their appearances, I could only make them up to look like enormous tigers covered in black and blue fur, with an additional pair of limbs and tails with the tip being made into a large and pointy blade, each creature surpassing three meters big, and they were near a hundred as well!
Due to how our battle was structured, the frontlines were all occupied by the warriors and my Ice Dragon Golems, but the backlines were mostly protected by my Slimes and the few magicians with me. When these two new tunnels opened behind everybody in the frontlines, the monsters didn't even bother attacking those near them and ran straight towards the orb. They were simply programed to attack it like in a literal game.
The only thing I can do right now is fight them as much as I can and resist while the frontlines exterminate the Ogres, which had finally stopped emerging from their tunnels but that there are still a hundred or a bit more of them alive.
"Everyone, let's do this again!" I commanded, as I used [Magic Transfer] with everybody once more to slow down the tiger-like divine beasts rushing our way.
This time, I'll add even more Divine Power to this and more Mana, all the Mana I got! It recovers insanely quickly, so it doesn't matter!
"Magic Transfer: Khione's Divine Judgement x20!"
FLASH! FLASH! FLASH! FLASH…!
In front of the slimes and Pekora, Rose, and Charlotte received my Magic Transfer, merging their own Magical Power with mine, and thanks to the enhancements that they received through my own blessing buff into them and the equipment I made, the amazing combination of magic power emerged as twenty gigantic magic circles appeared, unleashing a storm of ice coming from twenty different giantesses made of ice!
TRUUUUUUUMMMM…!
The ice spread through the front of us, as the tiger-like divine beasts were all caught on it. The creatures groaned in anger, their sharps claws and their blade-like tail tips began to swiftly slice through my divine ice like nothing, easily freeing themselves. They were even more resistant to my ice than I had anticipated, but the Frost Curse was already inflicted in all of them! Only a handful died, less than 5%, but as long as they were inflicted with the curse, they were ripe for picking!
"Winter Dragon Golem Battalion!"
Seeing that my Mana had swiftly recovered to around 50% in a few seconds, I instantly used a dozen of Divine Power points and conjured my Ice Dragon Golem Summoning Divine Spell right away!
FLASH! FLASH! FLASH! FLASH!
From my soul phantasmal essence emanated, merging with my Mana, and then materializing into powerful ice dragons made completely out of ice which were also actually golems!
"I guess I shouldn't fake that you guys aren't here either… Come out all of you!"
A pair of gigantic black beasts emerged, led by a ferocious draconic wolf and two enormous and colorful crows! Its was Kuro, Kumo, Frost, Huginn, and Muninn! Alongside them came an army of Giant Black Spiders which were the strongest children of Kumo as well!
"Go, my beasts! Ice Dragon Divine Blessing!"
FLAAASH!
The enormous monsters were boosted through the roof with the power of my buffs, gaining great power and divine auras, they charged forward, clashing against the beasts. Kuro and Kumo had also been training inside my Divine Realm through this long time we spent inside. As the descendants of powerful Divine Beasts they were obviously holding incredible and untapped potential, which I was able to bring out of them with my Ice Dragon Divine Blessing Spell!
"GRYYSHAAAAA!"
Kuro roared, opening his enormous jaws, and unleashing a barrage of darkness beams, the tigers were more affected by it than the creatures had originally thought, slowing them down for my enormous snake to swipe his gigantic, scaled tail and blow them off the ground. The enormous tail crushed through the beasts, shattering them into pieces in an instant. He created spears of darkness which began to pierce through their bodies and breaking them apart. Due to the Frost Curse, they're more delicate than the beasts can really think of.
"GRUOOOHHH…!"
The enormous Kumo moved forward as well, unleashing a variety of powerful attacks using her enormous spider claws and then spreading her spiderweb to trap the divine beasts. Her gigantic fangs pierced and bite through the monsters' bodies until nothing but shattered remains were left last. Her spiderwebs were also easily catching them in a net, stopping their massive army from moving near the orb which I was guarding alongside my slimes.
The rest of the group was fighting fiercely as well, as Huginn and Muninn were putting aerial support of superb quality. Their enormous wings spreading out widely as they unleashed a storm of sharp feathers against their foes darkness and light stormed the tigers, while the furious Frost and his army of Frost Island Wolves began to rampage the weakened enemies, tearing them apart with claws and jaws.
We were handling the situation just fine, and the Ogre Army upfront was also falling in numbers, things were looking brighter!
Until another tremor happened…
TRUUUUMMM…!
And yet another wave rushed in.
