Chapter 329 Flesh Golem IV
**BOOOMM!!!
The impact knocked the body of the golem that was falling forward in the opposite direction, with a gigantic energy-constructed sword bursting out from its chest and piking it up in the air.
Seeing this snapped Evan out of his shock for a bit as he jumped into the air using void steps and activated his blessing of destruction's first activation.
Looking at the creature while pulling back his sword, Evan noted that even though Eliza had dealt with its death aura, the creature was still regenerating its wounds at a visible rate, while transferring a lot of flesh towards its chest area where Pride's energy blade had pierced through.
'This thing really is getting stronger over time.'
The young hero remarked internally as he activated vortex, feeling his arm scream out to him as the essence of life that Eliza applied to him and the essence of destruction from his skill seemed to be at odds.
"Well, damn."
Evan spoke those two words as the spiralling mass of aura slammed into the creature's chest and shredded all its flesh, turning it into chunks of meat and revealing the golem's core, a large two-metre-wide orb filled with death aura, magic power, and some other black liquid.
His vortex went on to finish the job that Pride's sword had started when she stabbed the edge of the core, colliding with the orb and shattering it to pieces, before going on to burst out of the other end of the flesh golem's body and slam into the ground.
The earth trembled as Evan's vortex dug a deep crater in the ground before Evan cancelled the skill and withdrew his energies.
**DON!!
Once again, the ground quavered as the golem's body fell into the large crater that Evan's vortex had created when it hit the ground, bursting into pieces of flesh, corpses and pretty much every other disgusting thing Evan could think of at the moment.
"…I don't think I'm able to think of anything more disgusting at the moment."
Evan remarked as he tossed the Unforged back into his inventory before turning towards Pride and Greed who were discussing something on the side.
"What's up?"
"This thing had demonic energy mixed with some other foreign substance in its core, however, it's weird that I only sensed it when I stabbed into its core."
Pride spoke as she stared at the 'deceased' flesh golem, with Evan shrugging his arms and saying.
"It's most likely the Eighth Finger's contracted demon's demonic energy. Storing undead isn't the only thing that guy is good at."
"His contracted demon?"
"Yeah. I'd fill you guys in on the dude later.
His main threat source is his large expansive space that lets him store loads of undead inside which could escape the detection of even those who are skilled at spatial magic."
Evan replied to Pride as he turned around and started making his way towards the town walls where a slightly pissed Eliza was waiting.
When Evan asked the reason for her displeasure, the answer she gave was as such:
"That thing managed to resist my life essence towards the end."
Apparently, she had sensed the golem's increasing capabilities in the form of its increased resistance to life-attributed energy.
"I told you that the thing would get stronger over time."
Evan replied as he rose his hand to ruffle her hair, much to the girl's displeasure, however, she didn't move to push his hand off making Evan chuckle a bit.
At least, until Pride flicked both their foreheads and turned their attention towards the town lord who was looking at them awkwardly.
"…um. I wo-!"
"HUH?!"contemporary romance
Eliza's sudden exclamation cut off the town lord who had barely started speaking as she turned her gaze towards the inner part of the town and shouted.
"Why can I sense death aura from inside the town?!"
Hearing this, Evan's eyes widened in shock as he realised the implications of that, with the town lord realising the meaning of her words a beat later.
He didn't even get a chance to ask as multiple screams simultaneously rang out, with Eliza's gaze locking towards a certain direction as she spoke.
"Follow me!"
The battle priestess jumped off the walls and dashed forward, with Evan and Pride, along with a few other adventurers trailing behind.
With their speeds, it took them barely a minute to cross the hundreds of metres of distance and arrive at the location where the screams came from, only to discover a large congregation of people with five sword-wielding mountless Dullahans, along with dozens of other regular undead in their midst.
"Why are there people here!? Shouldn't they have been all moved over to the other shelters?!"
One of the adventurers screamed out as she alternated her gaze between the people who were outside in this town square and the large fortified building that stood a few metres off the clearing.
As for Evan, he didn't even ask any question, releasing an energy blast towards the first Dullahan he saw and blasting it into the water fountain behind it, before snapping his fingers and activating chain lightning.
The golden tendrils of lighting struck the fallen Dullahan and ended its existence, before jumping off to another random undead and slamming into its head, instantly roasting it.
Evan's pupils darted around, trying to find the source of the commotion as he knew that it was simply impossible for Dullahans to randomly appear inside the town.
'Unless someone brought them inside, or summoned them directly.'
Evan jumped up and used threw a lightning spear towards an undead, ending its 'life' instantly before turning towards another group of undead and activating chain lightning again.
His feet landed on the ground as he scanned the area, with his mystic eyes instantly catching onto several figures who were still enveloped in the glow of magic power.
Before he could even call out to his companions, he saw one of them summon another duo of undead monsters who roared and ran over to two unlucky children who had fallen over in their attempt to escape.
"Pride, they're demonic hand members among the crowd! You and Liz should take them out, they should all have either a death aura or residual demonic energy on them.
I'd handle the Dullahans."
As he was sending that message to Pride, he was shooting out multiple energy blasts that destroyed the heads and hearts of the two undead, before turning around and dashing over to a Dullahan that was about to slash a random fleeing civilian with its sword.
Blitzing towards the Dullahan and coating his arm with magic power, he deflected the creature's sword slash with his right arm before holding out his left palm and activating a wide energy blast.
**BOOM!
The Dullahan's upper body was vaporized by the red beam of light that shot out of Evan's palm, with the young hero sighing in exasperation before turning towards the civilian who was staring at him blankly.
"You're still here?"
His question snapped the man out of his shock as he screamed out his thanks and took to his heels once more.
Seeing him run, the young hero turned his gaze around, scanning for any more undead enemies but his eyes couldn't help but widen when he saw multiple knights suddenly appear and begin to take out the undead.
'That crest on their armour…!'
