Ten or so Paladins could clear all the Undead monsters by themselves .
There were Dwarves on either side of the Paladins . Most of them wielded weapons such as axes or hammers, which were heavier than the Paladins’ weapons . Who knew where they got all their strength from?
Unexpectedly, they were actually quite mobile . Most would think that their short legs would make them move slower, but reality was quite the opposite .
They were almost like little bombs that travelled quickly alongside, making them the perfect cover for the Paladins . It was almost as if they had rehearsed this before .
They swept across the area and sent the Undead flying everywhere . None of them could stop the horde of Paladins and Dwarves .
Lu Li followed closely behind, assassinating the Undead that remained . There was bountiful loot on the floor . These were the main rewards because Lu Li didn’t know whether Tirion Fordring had anything to give to them .
The fight began well, but the frontline quickly encountered some difficult enemies .
The monsters that they first faced off against were mostly weaker mobs such as Skeleton Warriors or Zombies which moved slowly . They were controlled by the Warlocks and Witches, who were a lot more intelligent and moved faster, making them more difficult to deal with .

However, these were still considered regular mobs which could be easily handled by a small team of players .
Then came the Banshees who were created by The Lich King . These were spirits and ghosts of
deceased Mages controlled by the Scourge, but they retained their magical powers from their previous life . Banshees could also charm enemies to control them .
Those that were controlled by the Banshees could attack their allies .
Paladins and Dwarves were not afraid of these Banshees because they burned alive when they were close to the Paladins and the Dwarves seemed unaffected by their charm .
Groups of Skeleton Mages and Abominations were also difficult to deal with because they excelled at both melee and ranged combat .
However, the monster that slowed down the frontline the most was the Death Knights .
Death Knights could move quickly and could charge towards enemies to tear through their defenses . Unlike traditional Knights, Death Knights had magical powers instilled within them that they can wield .
Fortunately, there weren’t that many Death Knights here .

Tirion Fordring’s Paladins began roaring at the sight of these Death Knights and their bodies began shining brightly .
Lu Li rubbed his eyes and it was almost as if he saw the tears on the Paladin’s faces . Upon a closer look, he was sure that some of the Paladins were actually crying .
He contemplated for a while and guessed why .
Because the Death Knights were so powerful, the Scourge demanded a high success rate in transforming Paladins into Death Knights . They would capture live ones and collect their corpses .
Transforming a Paladin that was still alive was excruciatingly painful, but this increased the success rate as well as the overall power once transformed .
The Death Knights before them were likely all once Paladins, and some might have even fought alongside them in their past life . Tirion Fordring’s tears were tears of compassion for their fallen comrades that had once risked their lives to protect each other .
The Death Knights clashed against the Paladins .
There was no mercy or hesitation from either side . Paladins needed great potential and willpower to obtain the power of the Holy Light . Therefore, each and everyone of them had the willpower far beyond ordinary people .
In their eyes, though they used to be comrades, they were now enemies that needed to be eliminated .

“Add some pressure . Mages, use your crowd control to lock down the Death Knights and Hunters put down traps,” Lu Li instructed as he jumped down and joined the fight .
There wasn’t much time to give out commands and observe the enemy more . The main forces from each side had already clashed and this would probably be the climax of the battle .
The Death Knights had lost the Holy Light, but their new gained power was more powerful so the Paladins didn’t stand a chance by themselves . However, with the help of a few Paladin players, the Death Knights’ advance was mitigated .
The Death Knights were falling one by one and the Scourge’s numbers were depleting .
Silverhand Paladins, Dwarves and countless adventurers . Lu Li was proud of the team that he’d formed . Each and one of these groups could be a formidable force alone, but combining the three would make them almost unstoppable .
Since the Silver Hand Paladins were trying to save their comrades, they gave it all they had .
The Dwarves were protecting them homeland and also gave it their all .
The 20,000 players that Lu Li recruited were motivated by the loot that the Boss would drop . There were countless Dark Gold equips just from clearing these regular mobs and there was also a high chance of obtaining a legendary weapon from the Boss . They had collected more loot than dungeoning for an entire week .
It was no wonder why the major guilds kept growing stronger and stronger . Once you had the numbers, you could accomplish almost anything you wanted to .
Lu Li’s group suffered very few losses because Paladins and Dwarves were tanking everything and all them needed to do was to DPS . The healers were also doing a great job keeping everyone alive . Because of this set up, the fight was over in minutes .
“Everyone, rest up,” Tirion Fordring ordered .
The Paladins and the Dwarves both stopped . The Paladins were like well-trained troops that immediately got down from their horses to rest, using their Holy Light to heal the wounds of their steeds .
“There’s a powerful force coming towards us; it’s coming from Lake Mereldar . We will rest up and face off against it!” Tirion Fordring yelled . Although he was fierce and battle-hardened, he was visibly tired from the fighting .
“Sky Moon, there’s a Boss around where you are that’s moving towards us . Send in waves of people to slow him down,” Lu Li messaged Sky Moon .
They found the Boss and began charging towards it in groups . Although it was basically suicide, they were able to slow it down .
