"Atlas, Lucia, Lina buy me some time!"

Seeing how many monsters are currently going to face me, I am at a very overwhelming disadvantage. Not only that but their levels are way higher. Not only that but I don't have an inkling of their weaknesses and exploit it to kill them faster.

To mitigate my lack of knowledge against them, I have to increase my power. Lucia quickly made a wall of flames and Atlas released his killing intent. Even though they are higher leveled beasts, that doesn't mean they can just ignore a killing intent. Since Atlas is capable of increasing the effect of his killing intent, the monsters will have second thoughts about charging toward us.

I opened my stats panel. When I leveled up last time, I saved up all my stat points and there are some quests last time that awarded me a few though I didn't track how many SP points I have accumulated from ignoring them. But since I needed extra power, this is my only choice of survival.

Then, the accumulated SP is amassed to 94. It wasn't much but that should help increase my stats even for a little bit. I put 20 on STR for increased firepower, 30 on END to increase my health and defense values, 20 on INT to increase my magic power and MP capacity, and the rest are all in DEX. I didn't put any on my AGI at the moment. As much as it will help with my movement, what I needed right now is to survive a hit much longer than usual and for the rest of my stats, it increases my ability to fight back so I will have to delay my AGI stat.

The next thing I did is to drop off all of the dispensable equipment I made before. When I was making all the equipment for all of my companions, I made plenty of items that are all flop and are not that good. I don't have uses for them but I decided to keep them in my inventory. I was planning to just let the Versatile Weapon eat them slowly but because I needed the extra stats my weapon gets every time it eats, I will be using them all in one go.

"I'm counting on you, Versatile Weapon. Pump up those stats you have and help me get away from this predicament! [DEVOUR]!"

The black shadow dragon emerged from my Versatile Weapon and it started licking its drooling before the weapons and armor. After doing the same movement it usually does, it opened its big mouth and in one fell swoop, all of the weapons are gone and they all went inside the mouth of the insatiable monster in my weapon. With all the weapons devoured, the black shadow dragon returned, and the blade of the Versatile Weapon glow red after the monster managed to settle down.

As much as I want to immediately look at the changes, I think I don't need to keep wasting any more time. I needed to fight now. Whatever changes the Versatile Weapon gained, I can look for that later. Time to fight back.

The monsters started to congregate more than usual. Even with the Walls of flame that Lucia released, the enemies are still not moving away. Sure they are not attacking but they aren't backing away either. That is a very bad thing. I only heard from experienced players before about the Crack in the World as I have never encountered one before but to see how troublesome it was going to be, it looks like the players who encountered it in the past understated the danger factor the Crack in the World possesses.

"Everyone, let's begin the battle. I know they are much stronger than us but that doesn't mean we can't win! Let's fight them and kill them all!"

Lucia snaps her fingers and the wall of flame got extinguished, allowing the flow of monsters to reach through us.

Gripping the handle of the Versatile Weapon, I started going head to head with a big orc that seemed to look like a chieftain orc to me. It is holding a big mace with spikes on it and swings it to me who is almost in his range.

"Don't you dare get in my way!"

,m Switching the form of the Versatile Weapon from sword to an ax, I swing it upward with all my might. And to my surprise, the orc chieftain look-alike got his upper half body lopped off, immediately killing the monster. Though that was awesome, the enemies are not going to stop because one monster died in one hit, they don't care whether those guys die or not, they will continue to attack.

"Master!" Lina shouted and put her palm before me.

-Attack Up Applied.

-Critical Rate Increase Applied

"Thanks, Lina!"

Lucia and Atlas are also attacking the monsters as fast as they can. Atlas has quick reflexes and despite using a Greatsword, his attacks are fast and comparable to how fast a shortsword does. Lina is fighting from time to time but she is acting as our buffer and healer this time around.

"Tina! Help us with your abilities!"

Since Tina awakened her abilities as one of the Insect Royalties, she gained the ability to use different kinds of debuffs and magic spells.

"I will not let you down, Master!"

Tina started to hover above in the air and she spreads her rainbow wings. I didn't notice it before but her wings started to get radiant after she awakened her abilities.

"Poison Dust!"

The violet-colored dust started to fall over the monsters. It seems like Tina is controlling the dust since there's not a single speck of the dust to anyone of us.

With the Poison dust, the monsters started to cough up to get rid of the dust entering their bodies. And that became a good opportunity.

SWISH!

SLASH!

PEW!

BANG!

With all the corpses of the monsters killed, isn't it a good chance for me to increase the levels of my Necromancer class?

"Stand up! And Serve your owner, you bastards!"

The dead bodies started to shake and the flesh in their bodies started to rot rapidly like it was being ripped apart by maggots at a fast-forward pace. Soon, only their skeletons were left behind and these skeletons were immediately enveloped with a red aura and they started to move around like they are still alive.

But this time, they are not from the side of the monsters, they are now on my side.

-you have converted an [Orc Chieftain]

-you have converted an [Iron Wolf]

-you have converted [Hobgoblin Warrior]

...

Messages keep popping up after I started raising the dead monsters back from the dead. Now, our numbers are no longer at a disadvantage as the number of monsters I raised back from the dead started to amass in numbers too.

The monsters that are attacking are also getting confused as to why the skeletons seem to defend the enemies and tried to ignore them but because the skeletons aren't just going to stand and act like a figurine made for display, they didn't expect that these skeletons will start attacking them. The monsters will not be able to understand why but since they are also attacking them, the monsters redirected their attention to my skeletons.

"Master, it seems your ability to turn the corpses into monsters is a good bait against these monsters!" Lucia is happy to see the monsters fighting against their former comrades.

"Less talk, Miss Lucia. The more monsters we kill, the lesser things we needed to take care of while the skeletons are taking the attention of the monsters."

"I know, I know! I am ready to incinerate them all!"

With my followers hyped for the battle, I also can't lose to them and started to kill the monsters. I changed my weapon into a Hammer and redirected my attention to the constructs and golems. Compared to the normal monsters that have flesh and blood that can be easily cut through by sharp tools, the constructs and golems are fairly invulnerable to these type of weapons, making them a dangerous enemy against players who only has the ability to wield a sword and their melee weapons. Those who didn't have the proper skills to fight them back are all going to get their asses handed to them.

Compared to the normal monsters that have different weaknesses and can easily die if they are decapitated or sliced in half, golems and constructs are different as they function as long as their cores are intact. And it seems like it is a normal design for the golems to keep their cores exposed. Normally, a weakness is one of the things that should be fully guarded but constructs and golems seemed to be different as they have their designs exposed purposely for that.

Since the cores are the main weaknesses, the only way to kill them is to remove all of the cores or to completely destroy them if they possess multiple of them. To destroy them, magic spells or breaking them with any kind of damaging skills will destroy these circle artifacts easily. In simple terms, these are their hearts.

Still, despite our current progress in eliminating them, it doesn't seem our current situation is getting better. With the portal existing and open, our current situation will not improve and we will still be getting a worse situation as time goes by. I needed to think something about how to fight back and kill them all without exhausting our options.
