The number of creatures trying to invade and take over the city of Crystal increased with each passing second. At first, it was only the ghouls, but then skeletons started to show up, along with stone gargoyles and even undead wolves.
"The undead are resurrecting beasts from the forest," Alex yelled as he slashed with his Umbra Blade.
A skeleton swung its curved sword to attack him. It was a fast attack for a skeleton, but Alex's dexterity was on another level. With swift and planned movements, he dodged to the side and counter-attacked the skeleton.
His Umbra Blade had tremendous power, and his Shadow Strike dealt a lot of damage to the skeleton, killing it on the spot. He relaxed for a second, which was enough for Alex to get hit by three bone arrows, piercing his chest.
"Argh, damn it. There are archers hiding behind the trees!" Alex shouted, making others fighting alongside him aware.
