KEEP BUANA (Rise of Darkness)
The Attack on Palace V
When the nine warriors entered the paseban hall or the meeting hall of the king, they were greeted with a terrible sight. Hundreds of undead seemed to be killing everyone inside the palace building with sadism!
Hundreds of the undead turned out to be the perpetrators of the massacre of the soldiers, including all the servants and the family of the king in the palace. Not the warriors of the Star of Hope alliance as they had previously expected.
They kill in all sorts of ways. The most sadistic is with their bite and sharp claws like poisonous daggers.
The other terrible thing about these undead, the entire army and the people they had killed were then part of them, the undead group!
“What is this?? Goddamn it..! Out.. everything out.!” The leader of the Nine, a young warrior named Bujang Juaro, told his comrades.
He ordered them to get out of the spacious room as soon as possible because they realized the danger lurking before their eyes.
The ten warriors retreated back towards the palace grounds while directing various long-range punches and weapons at the undead crowd that began to move against them. However, all the weapons that managed to stab or decapitate them even though it did not stop the undead from moving.
Some who had been bounced off the long-range blows also immediately rose up, although some parts of their bodies were torn apart, shattered, and some still left a burning fire burning through their bodies. It seemed that they no longer had any pain, and they might no longer be able to be killed like ordinary humans.
What increasingly confused the warriors, among the undead seemed one of the figures who led them. A man with a face that has no flesh, yet is dressed luxuriously and has a crown on his head.
“Toll Exorbitant?!” The warriors said simultaneously. They had never met the king, but from the physical characteristics conveyed, the king's crowned undead was Tulung Selangit.
“What happened to those living corpses? Why did they slaughter the soldiers and black warriors? Then, why did Tulung Selangit become the undead and lead them?” Tanya Salek Panji, the youngest warrior besides Bujang Juaro.
“Where do we know??” Replied his nine comrades in unison while glaring at him.
“What should we do? Fight them, or we'll just go? Toh Tulung Selangit is dead.” asked Maheswara to the leader of his squad. He intended to just leave the place instead of having to deal with such a large number of monsters.
“They will be very dangerous if they get out of the palace and make the residents as targets. Could-can, this entire country will be the undead kingdom” Bujang Juaro gives opinions as well as the attitude of the group to be taken.
They all nodded in agreement with the thought of the squad leader. “Burn them all to dust! Don't let any of them escape!” His word continued.
The three warriors who possessed abilities with basic fire techniques advanced to face the undead. They carried out their respective movements before a fire attack was formed that hit the group of the undead.
The living bodies came out of the building by jumping, much like a monkey or a tiger was about to pounce on prey, attacking the ten Star of Hope warriors in the courtyard.
Their arrival was met with a great fire that surrounded and burned their bodies. That fire came from the strength of the three Star Hope warriors. While the other seven warriors are watching and on alert. Just in case there's an undead trying to escape.
The fire soon grew bigger and bigger as the palace buildings began to burn. There were shouts and grunts from within the flames among the rumbling sounds of burning building materials.
Suddenly, from within the blazing flames appeared hundreds of undead with bodies filled with flames. But the corpses failed to reach the position of the warriors, as they instantly collapsed as their internal organs began to burn.
That is, from behind the fire that blazes continuously seen the bodies that try to break through the fire. Some of them managed to get out of the flames, but soon collapsed shortly afterwards with their bodies burned out.
“Capital..We can't hold out much longer! Our inner power is starting to decrease!” Shouted Argageni, one of the three warriors who exerted the power of fire to burn down the palace and the corpses in it.
“Quiet! The fire has grown! Rest.. and recover yourself.we will watch over them from here.” Bujang Juaro said. His eyes could not escape the flames that had now been completely pure of ordinary fire after the three warriors had chosen to rest.
With the fire coming from the inner power, most of the undead would disintegrate their bodies before escaping from the flames. But with this ordinary fire, the undead were still able to move a little after being outside the flames.
The sounds of growls, screams, even moans continuously rang out as the living corpses continued to try to break out of the flames. Those who managed to get out of the fire were immediately exterminated by the other warriors on guard with various weapons capable of blowing up the bodies of the undead
On the other side of the kingdom, the senopati who were assigned to handle the security of the fortress were shocked upon receiving reports that their fortress had been attacked. The soldier who reported immediately collapsed, because when reporting he did suffer from arrow pierced wounds in the area near the heart and one arrow on the back.
Upang Jenglot, Senopati's name, is little left of the current Black Centipede college. As soon as he came out of his residence, about five hundred soldiers had lined up waiting for orders. The soldiers gathered as soon as the bells rang.
“We intercepted the rioters! Destroy them, don't get away! Give them the most painful death for daring to harass us! Both of you, tighten the security of the east and west wings!” Upang Jenglot orders on his two retainers.
Each of the appointed retainers immediately broke away carrying a series of soldiers to the east and west wings as ordered.
Upang Jenglot himself then with eight retainers immediately drove his horse towards the gate of the fort that was reported to have been broken down. Behind them, the soldiers immediately followed their lead moving towards the front gate of the fortress. Each of the retainers or captains of the army commanded more than fifty soldiers.
The horses of the retainers drove up following Upang Jenglot. While the soldiers behind caught up with them by running.
When it arrived in front of the fortress wall, Upang Jenglot immediately jumped from his horse lunging forward, towards the gate of the fortress as dozens of arrows shot towards it.
His hand nimbly and nimbly caught dozens of arrows that were addressed to him. While his horse had collapsed because his neck was pierced by two arrows. The eight retainers or captains behind him also immediately jumped off the horses and were like running in the air towards the gate of the fortress.
Under their feet that were like walking in the air, dozens of darting arrows were made like footholds. The eight men landed not far from the senopati side. Back then, the arrows no longer attacked them.
Instead, hundreds of incandescent stones bounced from behind the darkness.
The nine higher-ups of the soldier simultaneously jumped away. The incandescent stones smashed into trees, walls, and pierced through the bodies of their horses.
The horses immediately collapsed. Trees and buildings that were hit by incandescent stones immediately burned.
Suddenly, the attackers stopped their attack when they saw a squad of soldiers arrive at the gate shortly afterwards.
They seemed to retreat in a hurry. In the darkness of the night, only their torches could be seen running away from the palace walls into the forest not far from the fort.
“You run after messing up? Don't hope! Don't call my name Upang Jenglot if you don't catch them..! Soldierlike.. Seraaaang and destroy the rioters...!!!” Upang Jenglot seemed to be very angry after seeing the condition of the gate he was responsible for had shattered. His patience was completely on the verge of receiving direct attacks, but he had not had time to retaliate and the attacker fled.
The four hundred warriors behind Upang Jenglot immediately advanced on the enemy who was seen moving back regularly.
They chased the attackers into the forest. Not knowing at all, that hundreds of torches were carried by only a few people. Each of them carried at least fifty torches bound with wood in a row. At night, the movement of the numerous torches will be counted as enemies in the hundreds.
'BOM!!'
There was a loud sound of explosions above the sky. The night sky was brightly lit for a few moments by a giant fireball forming a mushroom.
Faintly due to the distance, they watched as five human figures floated in the sky circling around a person.
"What's that??" Excited the soldier beside one of the captains of the army.
"Well...!! gobl! Our business is to pursue those enemies! Inside the palace are many others who take care of it! Hurry up!!" snapped the captain while kicking the buttocks of the soldier who commented just now.
However, the captain himself turned his head once more towards the origin of the explosion before catching up with his men chasing the fleeing enemy.
