[Your party member, Peridot, has entered a special space and cannot be contacted.]

[Your party member, Creepysoo, has entered a special space and cannot be contacted.]

Adrian and Levin Cloud rushed to the village, and it was no longer a village. The whole area has turned into a field zone with a looming dark castle at the very middle of it. The Dread Mansion was not located at the forest because it has already swallowed up the village and the villagers inside of it.

"Master, a special barrier has swallowed the entire area. Going inside in a different area is deemed to be impossible unless we use 90% of your mana to destroy the space itself." Paradox reported as it has already analyzed the barrier surrounding the village.

"Master, even my shadows cannot penetrate the barrier as there is no gap." Sirius reported.

"I cannot phase through it." Charon added.

"It seems the only way that is not a hassle would be to enter the village entrance that is left open just for us." Adrian stated.

"So, we are basically just walking to our enemies without a plan for a sneak attack. I guess we must have grown a lot of confidence. Let us just hope that Peridot and Creepysoo are doing fine." Levin Cloud commented.

Adrian and Levin Cloud entered the gates of the village as they know that the fight with the Dread Mansion will start the moment they step inside. They made sure to be ready upon entering as they might get attacked the moment, they took their first step inside. Both of their figures vanished the instant that they stepped foot in the village entrance.

[You have entered the special space called the Dread Village.]

As soon as Adrian and Levin Cloud entered the village, their bodies vanished on sight as if they were sent to another world. The peaceful looking village scene returned as if the dark looming village was just a figment of one's imagination. It was as if the village itself waited for the two to enter before vanishing from the eyes of the outside world.

Peridot and Creepysoo were immediately transported to the space of the Dread Village as they were swallowed up. They could use teleportation scrolls, but this was the reason why they came here in the first place. They needed to find the Dread Mansion, but they found a different entity called the Dread Village.

The village itself became dark and decrepit as all the people that were walking were actually undead. The fact that even Creepysoo's eyes were deceived meant that the undead responsible for such a space is definitely powerful. Even the potato stall owner that they talked to was actually an undead that hanged out and sold rotten potatoes.

[You cannot contact your party member, Equinox.]

[You cannot contact your party member, Levin Cloud.]

"We are isolated. We cannot contact the big bros." Creepysoo stated as he tried reaching out to both Adrian and Levin Cloud.

"That is the least of our problems because we need to deal with that." Peridot stated as she saw tombs grow out of the ground.

[The first wave of undead shall rise from the graves.]

[Number of enemies to be defeated: 50]

"Can you deal with undead even if you are one?" Peridot asked as she knew that Creepysoo needs monsters that are recently killed to create other undead.

"The great thing about an undead that serves the God of Death Abaddon is that we are undead that has mastered killing other undead. Even the holy churches that hate undead cannot defeat us in making the dead rest in peace." Creepysoo stated as he summoned his undead knights.

[You have summoned your undead knight, Don Quixote.]

[You have summoned your undead knight, Robin Hoodie.]

[You have summoned your undead knight, Mummie.]

[You have summoned your undead knight, Voodoo Marie.]

[You have summoned your undead knight, Frankie.]

"Empower the dead with the might of the gods of death! Hymn of the Dead!" Creepysoo stated as he used a spell using the Necronomicon.

[All undead that serves you will have 20% increased attack damage.]

[All undead that serves you will have 20% increase defenses.]

[All undead that serves you will have 15% increased movement speed.]

[All undead under you will have their attacks be enchanted with death attribute miasma that deals 10% of their total damage for ten seconds.]

[All undead that are under you will revive once when they die in battle at 50% health.]

"Since you are that excited about the battle then let me help you as well." Peridot stated.

"Earthen Armor!"

"Flaming Aura!"

"Aqua Ring!"

"Wind Blades!"

[Your party member, Peridot, has imbued Don Quixote with four different buffs.]

[Your party member, Peridot, has imbued Robin Hoodie with four different buffs.]

[Your party member, Peridot, has imbued Mummie with four different buffs.]

[Your party member, Peridot, has imbued Voodoo Marie with four different buffs.]

[Your party member, Peridot, has imbued Frankie with four different buffs.]

[Your undead knights are buffed with Earthen Armor. All of their defenses will increase by 15% and will receive a defensive barrier that absorbs 10% of their maximum health.]

[Your undead knights are buffed with Flaming Aura. They will radiate a flaming aura that deals 0.05% of the enemy health per three seconds. If any unit buffed with Flaming Aura is hit by a physical attack or deals physical attacks, they have a 5% chance of inflicting Burn on the enemy.]

[Your undead knights are buffed with Aqua Ring. They will restore 5% of their health every 10 seconds for twenty minutes. Doubled when the weather is raining.]

[Your undead knights are buffed with Wind Blades. They have a 5% chance of releasing wind blades that deal 1% of the maximum health of the enemy when they attack.]

[Your undead knights are afflicted with four elemental buffs but are in harmony with each other.]

[All buffs will be increased by 5% due to Elemental Harmony.]

"Clear the first wave before the other boys get here. If they come, then we will not have fun." Peridot stated as she also created clay golems.

"Roger! All knights! Go and rampage to your heart's content." Creepysoo stated as only fifty zombies were the enemies that came out in the first wave.

[You have entered the outskirts of Dread Village.]

[Defeat the enemies that spawn for five waves and you will be able to advance.]

[The first wave of enemies is spawning.]

[Defeat 10 zombies.]

"We already have a welcoming party even if we just stepped inside." Adrian stated as zombies suddenly rose from the ground as tombstones spawned in front of them.

"We cannot reach them even if we entered the same area. They must be in a deeper area than here which means this place has several layers of security." Levin Cloud stated as he tried using the party chat once again.

"Sirius, tear all of them to shreds." Adrian commanded as Sirius came out of the shadows and destroyed all of the zombies.

[You have defeated the first wave.]

[The second wave of enemies is spawning.]

[Defeat 20 zombies.]

[You have defeated the second wave of enemies.]

[The third wave of enemies is spawning.]

[Defeat 40 zombies and 10 wraiths.]

[You have defeated the third wave of enemies.

[The fourth wave of enemies is spawning.]

[Defeat 80 zombies and 20 wraiths.]

[You have defeated the fourth wave of enemies.]

[The last wave of enemies is spawning. Defeat all of the enemies in order to proceed to the next area.]

[Defeat 160 zombies, 40 wraiths, and 1 Skeleton Knight.]

"Kanlaon, defeat all of them with your breath attack." Adrian commanded as Kanlaon released his Genesis Dragon Breath upon the horde of enemies.

All of the enemies died the moment they got hit by the breath attack but that is due to the enemies being level 150. The horde of enemies that they faced was not powerful which made them proceed easier. Adrian and Levin Cloud are now thinking what Peridot and Creepysoo are doing as they might also be facing a monster horde like them.

[You can now head to the next area.]

"Let us go! They might be in the next area." Levin Cloud stated as both of them stepped inside another gate.

[You have defeated the fourth wave of enemies.]

[Number of waves before being able to proceed in the next area is: 6]

[The fifth wave of enemies will now spawn.]

[Defeat 800 zombies, 320 Wraiths, and 16 skeleton knights.]

"If undead did not tire then we would have been exhausted." Creepysoo stated as he started buffing all of his undead knights once again.

"If I actually used mana for some of my spells then I would have been out already." Peridot stated as she crushed an epic tier gemstone and created a powerful cyclone that ravaged through the enemy horde.

[Two new participants have entered the area. The next wave will be adjusted according to their power.]
