The five Gargoyles stood side by side, their wings stretched to their full lengths. They looked menacing as their vertical eyes opened and revealed pitch-black eyeballs that gazed at Ralph and the undead General as if they were trying to look into the souls of the two.

Ralph’s smile slowly disappeared, and his expression became serious; he immediately summoned the undead knight.

The knight and its shadow horse appeared in front of him and the five Gargoyles immediately reacted to the appearance of the shadow horse.

They opened their mouths and spoke in strange languages that Ralph was unable to understand, it was as if they were arguing about something.

They continued for a few seconds before suddenly stopping, one of the Gargoyles suddenly flew into the air with its arms stretched wide open and its head facing the red mist that covered the surface of the labyrinth, it opened its mouth and mumbled words that Ralph found incomprehensible; it was as if it was praying.

Not intending to wait for whatever it was going to do, Ralph gave orders for the undead General to attack while the undead knight stayed beside him.

Swoosh!!

Like a red streak of light, the undead General faded from its position as it rushed toward the Gargoyles.

The Gargoyles that had flown into the air just happened to have finished its prayers at this moment and its gaze returned to the ground, falling on the red light that was shooting toward them.

Like the sound of swords cutting through the wind, the gargoyle made a turn in the air and dived down at the undead General like a comet.

BOOM!

Both of them met and threw a punch; a loud sound rang out, and both parties were pushed several steps back. Continue your adventure with empire

A strong shockwave spread out due to their clash and Ralph had to block the shockwave by putting his hands in front of his face.

The gargoyle and the undead General stared at each other; a pair of pitch-black eyes and a pair of red misty eyes exchanged intents.

The undead General suddenly flashed forward again, appearing in front of the gargoyle like a ghost; its hand formed a palm and struck at the chest of the gargoyle.

BAM!

The palm landed on the chest of the gargoyle before the monster could react, the force lifted it off its feet and sent it flying back as a loud cracking sound followed.

The gargoyle flew several meters back before flapping its wings and controlling its flight, soaring into the air and hovering ten meters above the ground.

On its chest was a palm-sized crack, which was the result of the undead General’s attack.

The Gargoyle opened its mouth and spoke in their strange language again, the remaining four gargoyles on the ground reacted after it said whatever those sounds meant.

Their wings flapped as their legs hovered above the ground, and with another flap of their wings, all four of them shot toward the undead General.

Ralph’s expression hardened and he was ready to send out the undead knight if he saw that the undead General was unable to handle things by itself.

The undead knight shifted beside Ralph, its eyes following the movements of the gargoyles.

The first gargoyle reached the undead General and immediately attacked with its wings, sending it swiping toward the face of the undead General like a blade.

With a wind-splitting sound, the undead General faded into red light and dodged the wing of the gargoyle. It appeared on the other side of the wing and grabbed it before launching the gargoyle to the side with a powerful throw; it had easily dealt with that one but the remaining three were already upon it.

One sent a swipe of its hand that looked like a claw from above at the head of the undead General, another one sent out a flying kick as it inched closer to the undead General, and the last one had its mouth wide open as if it was planning to munch on the undead General.

Their speed was incredible and they were already too close for the undead General to carry out excess maneuvers.

Still, that didn’t mean it was just going to stand there and get hit.

Just when the claw was about to land in its head, the undead General sidestepped before reaching out and knocking the claw away with one hand while its other hand landed a solid slap in the face of the gargoyle that was trying to bite it; the strong slap sent the Gargoyle flying to the side while spinning along the way.

BAM!

With the undead General dealing with the other two Gargoyles, the last one had no obstructions and its punch landed squarely on the chest of the undead General.

The latter was sent flying and crashed into the ground, coming to a stop in front of Ralph and the undead knight. It immediately jumped up to its feet and faced the gargoyles again.

The undead knight turned to look at Ralph at this moment, and Ralph felt the emotion of the undead knight; it wanted to fight with the undead General.

“Go!” Ralph gave the command; he wasn’t a fan of watching his undead getting bullied, to begin with, so he wasn’t going to let the undead General get ganged up on.

Upon receiving the order, the shadow horse neighed into the air before stepping forward, the undead knight on its back stretching out its sword.

BOOM!

The shadow horse suddenly charged forward with a loud sound, its speed was even faster than that of the undead General!

A black-light shot across the distance between Ralph and the gargoyles, which stopped right in front of one and transformed into the undead knight who already had its sword raised high and a dark aura gushing from its blade.

The undead knight swung down.

Swoosh!!

A wave of dark aura flew out like a wind blade and slammed into a gargoyle, the dark sword wave was ferocious as it sliced through the gargoyle and continued flying until it crashed into the blood wall and finally collapsed.

Ralph’s eyes lit up at the sight of this; his expression became even brighter when the gargoyle that was cut by the sword wave fell apart, and a small shiny crystal fell down.

It was a Nexus crystal!

Immediately giving another command, both the undead General and the undead General attacked the remaining gargoyles with ferociousness, pushing them back.

Ralph took the chance and ran toward the Nexus crystal before picking it up.

At this moment, Ralph suddenly felt a shadow loom above him.

He turned his gaze upward and saw the gargoyle that had exchanged punches with the undead General before was currently flying above him; it had one of its hands stretched toward Ralph, and red energy was currently gathering in front of its palm.

Swoosh!!

A black-light suddenly flashed as a sword even flew past.

Pfff!

The hand of the gargoyle was cut clean at the elbow and fell from the air, the energy attack that it was preparing to launch at Ralph also vanished as well.

They had yet to react when the undead knight appeared in front of Ralph and slashed out again, sending another dark sword wave that split the gargoyle in half from the waist.

The sword wave sent it flying backward. As its body separated mid-air, a shining crystal flew out.

Another Nexus crystal!

Ralph was stunned at the sight but before he could make a move.

Rumble!

The ground shook violently as blood walls burst out from the ground, the labyrinth was shifting again!
