"It got you,"

[Ultimate Skill: Touch of Nightmare]

[Ultimate Skill: Touch of Ancient Cursed]

From behind, Gherrar suddenly appeared and immediately grabbed the back of Acs and Viez's necks, and a black aura emanated from Gherrar's body, beginning to infiltrate Acs and Viez's bodies. Acs and Viez instantly turned around and tried to counterattack, but the Ancient Lich, Gherrar, vanished once again.

"Be cautious! Stay vigilant!"

Based on the memory of the anomaly monster that possessed Drazz's body, he remembered one of Ancient Lich's ace cards. This ace card was a high-level illusion created by the Ancient Lich.

"His original body must be hidden here! Quickly scatter and find him!"

According to Drazz's memory, when the Ancient Lich activated his high-level illusion, there was one crucial condition that became the weakness of the Ancient Lich's skill. The Ancient Lich had to conceal his own body, and his body would receive a defense debuff, making him vulnerable to attacks.

However, if the opponent couldn't find the Ancient Lich's body, the game would end up in the Ancient Lich's favor.

Drazz also decided not to use anomaly magic to counter [Ultimate Skill: Nightmare Area] because it would consume a lot of mana. Inside the Goblin settlement, there were still two very dangerous individuals: Aether and Saphielle.

"Surrender! And I will give you a painless death if you do!"

"Then return the item of Lady Alice that you stole!"

An unknown voice resounded loudly, coming from Gherrar, the Ancient Lich.

Drazz understood Gherrar's intent, which was the red crystal item he had previously stolen from Brain Doppelganger Vazz. Of course, Drazz wouldn't give it up easily, as the item would be very useful for his plans.

"This item? I need it to help me obtain an anomaly body."

"You are truly audacious! You've disrupted Lady Alice's plans, and I will give you the most painful death!"

Suddenly, the necks of Acs and Viez, previously held by the Ancient Lich, began to turn black and inflict severe internal injuries. However, Acs and Viez managed to endure thanks to their anomaly regeneration.

[Ultimate Skill: Summon Enemy Spirit]

"Arggghhhhhhhh!!!!!!!"

"Arrgghhkkkkkkhhhh!!!!"

Acs and Viez felt an incredible pain in their necks. The pain was like their necks were being doused in hot liquid with a temperature of tens of thousands of degrees, then crushed by heavy iron, and their neck bones seemed to break slowly.

However, this was not enough to defeat Acs and Viez, as their HP still had a substantial amount. Gherrar also knew this; all he needed to do was to stall for time as long as possible and, if possible, defeat all three of them, or at least one.

From Acs and Viez's necks emerged a spirit with a dark greenish-black hue, and they now stood before Acs and Viez. This spirit was a copy of Acs and Viez and possessed 70% of their statistics. Although the copy had only 70% of their original stats, it was enough to buy time.

"UNDEAD BASTARDS!!!!!"

"UNDEAD WRETCHES!!!"

Acs and Viez were truly furious now because they had been injured so easily. Their gazes were now fixed on the spectral copies of themselves in front of them.

[Ultimate Skill: Anomaly Anti-Spirit Sword]

[Ultimate Skill: Anomaly Anti-Spirit Spear]

A sword appeared in Acs's hand, and he tightly gripped the hilt, assuming a combat stance, ready to attack.

Meanwhile, a spear appeared in front of Viez, and he grasped it with both hands.

These swords and spears had peculiar and deviant shapes. The blade of Acs's sword wasn't sharp or pointed but dull, yet the hilt's end was sharp like a sword's edge. The blade of Acs's sword was also rectangular and appeared very weak.

A normal person or a regular warrior who saw the shape of Acs would likely burst into laughter due to the strange design. However, someone who knew about "Anomalies," would become more cautious and not underestimate their opponent.

Meanwhile, for Viez, the tip of his spear that is typically used for attacking was like the hilt of a spear, while the spear's hilt resembled a blade or the tip of a spear.

In other words, the forms of Viez's spear blade and its hilt were swapped, but their functions were not. If a normal person were to face Viez, they would also burst into laughter because Viez appeared to be holding his spear backward.

However, only the appearance of her spear was swapped, not its function.

One advantage of various anomaly skills or magic is their deviant shapes or functions, leading opponents to make incorrect assumptions or predictions, especially if they haven't encountered anomaly monsters or races before.

As a result, some players were killed by anomaly races within the game Monsterland. They regarded anomaly monsters as simply strange creatures with magic or skills of deviant forms.

On the other hand, Drazz continued to search for the original body of the Ancient Lich or Gherrar, which remained hidden in the thickening mist. He was confident that his comrades could handle their problems, as they were both strong and reliable.

"So, where is your original body?"

[Maxima Magic: Summon Massive Elder Lich]

[Special Skill: Boost Damage, Elder Lich]

[Special Skill: Reduce Cooldown Elder Lich]

[Ultimate Skill: Evolve Elder Lich to Nightmare Elder Lich]

"This is a combination of magic and skills that not every Ancient Lich knows, be grateful! Because you can witness one of my best combinations!"

Thirty purple magic circles appeared right in front of Drazz. He knew that something dangerous was about to emerge, so he decided to use his skills.

Furthermore, Drazz had never seen a combination of skills and magic related to Elder Lich. It could be said that in the game Monsterland, anomaly races or monsters rarely encountered the undead. With limited information, Drazz had to remain vigilant and not underestimate his opponent.

Besides statistics and levels, the strategy would greatly affect the outcome of the battle. Their statistics and levels were the same as the Ancient Lich, so the strategy would determine the winner of this battle.

Each magic circle summoned an undead, namely an Elder Lich. The appearance of the Elder Lich was quite similar to that of the Ancient Lich, except their attire appeared much simpler than that of the Ancient Lich. They all formed a formation by lying horizontally.

Fifteen Elder Lich stood horizontally while fifteen others knelt in front of the standing Elder Lich. In simple terms, their formation closely resembled the formation of Musketeers or soldiers in a firing position during the era of Napoleon or the American Civil War.

Each Elder Lich extended one of their hands with their palms wide open. And there was a red magic circle in front of each Elder Lich. Before long, dark masses appeared above each Elder Lich and seemed to possess their bodies.

This caused the white bones of the Elder Lich to turn black, and the red light in their eye sockets grew brighter. The red magic circles also gradually transformed into dark red magic circles.

The Elder Lich evolved into Nightmare Elder Lich.

[Ultimate Skill: Anomaly Holy Sword]

This was a sword with the same shape as the one used by Acs but had different attributes and functions.

Generally, undead are highly vulnerable to light elements or anything with a light attribute. Drazz wanted to leverage this to slaughter all the Elder Lich, tightly gripping his sword.

======================

At present, Aether is floating in the air, and his position is not far from the location of the battle between the Ancient Lich and the 3 Anomaly Goblin Berserkers.

Aether's face appears very calm, even though he knows that there's an intrusion that has disrupted his plans to conquer the goblin race.

"Anomalies, huh..."

Aether has never once fought against anomaly monsters or races, so he has very minimal information about anomaly races. Aether then slightly opens his jacket to reveal that he is wearing a wristwatch.

It is an additional accessory and an item from the game Monsterland. It looks like a typical adult wristwatch but is made of pure gold. Naturally, if sold, it would be very valuable, but Aether has no intention whatsoever of selling his possessions.

"In 2 hours and 40 minutes, Alice-sama should arrive."

Aether smiles because he still believes that the peak of the plan to conquer the goblin race will proceed smoothly, despite a minor interruption.

[Telepath]

"Arina, this is Aether."

Aether decides to contact Arina to provide important information. Aether believes that Arina should at least be aware of this information before heading to the goblin village.

"Yes, Aether, is there something?"

"The plan will proceed as scheduled according to the time I previously provided."

"Yes, of course, we will complete it tonight."

"You should already know that I, or Alice-sama, is aware of the timing, is there a reason you had to contact me?"

"It seems - no, a few rats are disrupting our plans, but the plan will proceed."

"I see. Exypno's plan should go very smoothly."

"Yes, I hope so too."

"So, who are the rats - no, the guests disturbing us?"

"Anomalies."

Arina is greatly surprised after hearing Aether's words. She is so shocked that she remains silent for a few moments.

"Tell me more in detail!"
