Ting! Ting! Ting!
Thoren shook the Choir Bell Charm repeatedly while issuing commands through the soul link connecting him to the undead army.
The eerie sound echoed violently throughout the narrow underground staircase like the cries of restless spirits wandering through a graveyard soaked with blood.
"Shield formation!"
"Press forward!"
His intention remained absolutely clear.
He would not retreat.
He would continue forcing his way downward no matter what horrors waited ahead.
The undead shield soldiers received the order instantly. Without fear or hesitation, they stepped forward together in perfect unison. Their heavy shields rose upward like an iron wall standing against destruction itself.
Whoosh!
Bang! Bang! Bang!
The terrifying sand attack slammed violently against the shields with monstrous force. The impact shook the staircase heavily while cracks spread across the surrounding walls. Dust and shattered stone rained endlessly from above.
