Chapter 4040
As he finished his sentence, Archfiend Antigonus raised his hands slowly. His deep, robust voice rang through the
whole Sealed Fiend Mountain.
"My great warriors of the fiend race. Rise."
The bloody fog enveloping the surroundings of the blood formation seemed to gain sentience, sinking to the
ground and condensing immediately before disappearing beneath the blood formation altogether.
Oh, no!
Master Magaera's face changed. His body trembled in outrage.
It was no wonder Archfiend Antigonus had been so calm even after he had lost so much of his energy.
It was because his fiend army was about to be revived any moment then.
Next to him, Grunt's face had also paled to a ghostly white.
Just as Master Magaera and Grunt were frozen in shock, a series of strange noises could
be heard from below the ground. It was closely followed by the appearance of countless

The figures were of countless blue skeletons. Their hollowed eye sockets shone with a
sinister bloody glow, sending a chill down one's spine.
There were hundreds of thousands of those skeletons. It was a blood-curdling sight.
Master Magaera and the rest of the soldiers trembled in fear.
They were suddenly aware of a crisis they had never encountered before.
Archfiend Antigonus had succeeded in reviving hundreds of thousands of fiends. There
was no escaping the tragedy that was about to occur.
While the soldiers were busy gathering their spirits, they saw many bloodied veins creep
up from beneath the ground. They crawled up the skeletons, condensing into blood-red
helmets on their heads.
Right after that, the hundreds of thousands of fiend soldiers bowed in unison to Archfiend
Antigonus.
Archfiend Antigonus was overwhelmed with emotion. It was finally time to reclaim his
glory after so many years.
At that thought, Archfiend Antigonus stopped smiling. He cried out with a solemn face.
"Fellow warriors of the fiend race! I'm sure you've all been waiting for this day for a long,
long time."
"Let all the rage and resentment you have harbored over the years be taken out on these
men in front of you. Take every single one of them down, and leave no survivors!"
The hundreds of thousands of fiends let out a series of howls, loud enough to pierce
through the heavens. They charged toward the soldiers around them like starved beasts.
"Argh!"
The soldiers were still frozen in shock. In the face of the sudden attack of the fiends, they
barely had time to act. Many of them fell to the floor upon being impaled, blood spraying
from their mouths as they collapsed.
"Why you—"
Master Magaera clenched his fists, rage coursing through his veins.
Archfiend Antigonus could hardly contain his glee. He called out to Master Magaera with a laugh. "Weren't you so
confident just a second ago, Master Magaera? Where's that bravado now?"

They're all going to die here today, every last one of them!"
Master Magaera's eyes were positively bloodshot with rage. "Don't look so smug. You don't know who will win the
war today yet!"
Master Magaera let out a deafening roar and charged toward his opponents.
At the same time, he called out to the soldiers around him. "Listen up! This war will change the fate and
wellbeing of the Godly Region. Now is not the time to back down. We shall defeat every last one of them, even if
it takes our last breaths to do so."
"Attack!"
Master Magaera's cries of fierce encouragement snapped many soldiers back into their senses. Channeling their
internal energy, they rushed forward into battle with the fiends.
The Sealed Fiend Mountain rang with the clashes of weapons and battle cries. The atmosphere, already sinister
before, only grew more ominous.
Both sides were equal in strength and manpower, and it was hard to tell a clear winner at first.
Yet slowly, the Godly Region's strength began to wane. A series of bottomless holes started to appear in the
blood formation. Those were the holes from which more fiends would appear, trapping soldiers to fall into them
as they materialized.
