Although the Group Corpse Explosion Technique could deal massive damage when a large number of monster corpses piled up, it required certain preconditions.
The most critical was triggering the explosion chain reaction.
The undead at close range obviously didn’t need to be considered.
With the attacks from three elite holy knights—Kai, Bemira, and Daisy—they could shatter these fragile skeletons into pieces.
Not to mention Bilis, who, after Him’s blessing, became a fixed artillery platform against dark creatures.
But the monsters at longer distances were limited by the attack range and couldn’t be reached.
So, they had to rely on the latter.
“Bilis, what’s the farthest area divine art you can cast?” I asked the one beside me.
“Radiant Judgment, up to seventy yards in range, with a ten-yard radius,” Bilis thought for a moment and replied. “Mana reflux takes three minutes.”
Estimating the short axis of the entire arena to be about a hundred and seventy to eighty yards, seventy yards was roughly more than half the width of the central field.
This distance was quite good.
Moreover, I recalled that Radiant Judgment’s damage in my previous life was at the bottom of the thirty-level divine arts for clergy.
But under Bilis’s elite cleric enhancement, it should be sufficient to handle these fragile undead.
Mana reflux time meant cooldown.
Three minutes of cooldown perfectly matched the corpse respawn time.
After a quick calculation, I made my plan.
“Bilis, later use Radiant Judgment to target from the three o’clock direction to the five o’clock direction at maximum distance.
After that, use some area divine arts to handle the undead in the middle, trying to control the range to cover the surroundings.”
“Satahia, you coordinate with Bilis to take care of the mid-range monsters.
The rest of you, defend well and whittle down the health of the surrounding monsters.”
After having Kai and the others hold this position and wait for my orders, I aimed for a gap at the top of the corridor and blinked to the seating area above the central field.
I had already observed earlier that there weren’t many monsters wandering on the stands.
But to be safe, I switched to my thief role and slowly sneaked to the position I had chosen.
From here, I could take in the entire arena at a glance.
Patrolling soldiers, gladiators, and various undead beasts piled up within.
Due to the aggro chain mechanism, nearly half of the undead in the central field were swarming toward Kai and the others’ distant position.
Even though we had eliminated many before, judging from this still surging sea of undead, the number eliminated was probably only about one-tenth.
Normally, it would take at least a day to clear all the monsters in this arena.
But now, I had an extraordinary method.
I wonder if that boss will blow up too.
I glanced at the right half of the field, far from Kai and the others—a massive griffin carcass.
Although I knew this idea was unrealistic, and just solving those demonized creatures would be satisfying enough.
I withdrew my gaze from the hordes of undead below.
To ensure no accidents, I quickly dealt with a few wandering undead around me.
Only then did I prepare the items.
Because of the range limitation of Bilis’s magic, I had to make up for the damage in the empty spots myself.
With my current level 13 meager Dark Word Mage abilities, I naturally couldn’t do it.
But if I added the magic scrolls obtained from Lobranch’s Mage Tower, it might be different.
Flame Domain, Thundercloud Storm, Glacier Sigh, Giant God Pillar…
Seven area-type magic scrolls—the last stock I got from the mage tower.
Although precious, I didn’t feel much heartache.
Tearing all these scrolls at once—the power of the magic scrolls collected by Lobranch was self-evident.
This could be seen clearly from the scene that appeared in the arena below the next moment.
Dazzling flames, terrifying thunderclouds, extreme cold frost, thick boulders—a series of grand magics enveloped the central field, turning this historic Mihri Arena into a doomsday-like terrifying scene.
And such a grand scene falling into the eyes of Kai and the others also meant a signal.
Holy light coalesced around the magic book.
As Bilis’s chant ended, a dazzling radiance instantly bloomed in the empty space not covered by the various area magics in the distance, like a divine judgment descending.
Countless undead, upon touching this holy light, melted like shadows in sunlight—the white bones gradually dissolving.
Satahia beside her wasn’t willing to lag behind.
She raised her staff, and after a lengthy incantation, a mass of scorching energy erupted in brilliant flames forty yards away.
Flame Tornado—the strongest area skill for fire mages at level 20.
Under Satahia’s casting with the demonic power enhancement, it seemed to have even more explosive power.
Him, as a cleric, mostly learned supportive divine arts, but he also mastered some damaging ones.
After applying blessings to our side, he descended holy light not far away.
Although the damage wasn’t as good as Bilis’s, it was still fatal to these undead.
Kai, Bemira, and Daisy defended while using the bone barrier as cover to clear the surrounding monsters.
Although holy knights were frontline classes, their damage couldn’t be overlooked.
As guiders of the Holy Light, holy knights were always the strongest force in epics against dark creatures.
In just one or two minutes, the hordes of undead in the arena suffered a heavy blow.
Whether it was the tough elite gladiatorial beasts or the undead martyrs with some magic immunity, they all turned into piles of fragmented white bones.
Even if not, their health was whittled down to an extremely fragile state.
However, for these undead, surviving such bombardment seemed like a kind of luck.
Though it wouldn’t be for long.
“Art, well, is explosion.”
Tearing the Group Corpse Explosion Technique scroll in my hand toward the place with the most undead corpses, I inexplicably thought of a phrase that perfectly fit the current situation.
Though it was a bit immoral.
Boom.
At first, over a dozen white bones exploded open, then affected the nearby corpses, like triggering a domino chain reaction.
Even some undead with remaining health that survived the explosion damage from their comrades’ corpses in front couldn’t withstand the shockwave from behind.
Even if they endured twice, there were consecutive explosions from the surroundings.
An unavoidable spread speed like a plague, but with a more shocking and terrifying power than a plague slowly infiltrating the body.
Moreover, in this environment where undead were clustered, in just a short minute, this terrifying explosion swept through more than half of the central field of the arena.
Countless undead were killed in the corpse explosion.
A field of red damage numbers floated in the air, like being in a blood-colored tide, telling me exactly how many undead were affected.
However, compared to this, the experience prompts sliding down like a waterfall seemed more intuitive.
