Diablo traveled through time and became a necromancer

The icy winds of the frozen plateau swept across the bare rocks like razors, whipping up fine snowflakes that lashed against Wu Ye's bone armor, making a rustling sound. He clung to a section of black basalt cliff covered in ice, his breath freezing into frost the instant it touched his helmet and visor.

Despite the robust vitality and frost resistance granted by his 280 points of physical strength, this desolate snowfield still instilled a deep-seated aversion in him—there was no life here, only eternal cold and lurking killing intent. He couldn't help but recall the world before his transmigration, with its distinct four seasons; if an ordinary person were to step into this place, they would probably turn into an ice sculpture within an hour.

"Abnormal energy fluctuations ahead, a large... heavy thing is approaching." Skeleton's empty eye sockets were fixed on the north, his jaw opening and closing silently, sending a warning through the mental link. His dark bone armor gleamed with a cold, hard luster in the dim light, his greatsword pointing diagonally at the ground, like a hunting dog that had smelled blood.

Almost simultaneously, a dull tremor came from the ground!

"Boom! Boom! Boom!"

Like the footsteps of ancient giants, each stomp shook the frozen earth! The thick snow covering the ice cliffs on both sides slid down, raising a cloud of snow mist around them! In the distance, icicles on the canopy of the coniferous trees broke off one by one, falling to the ground with a crisp cracking sound!

"Take cover!" Wu Ye shouted, and the entire squad instantly retreated into the shadows of the cliff. He activated his [Bone Armor], and eerie blue bone spikes burst forth from the ice, forming a sloping barrier in front of him, blocking his view.

The tremors grew closer and more intense! Through the gaps in the snow mist, Wu Ye's pupils suddenly contracted—

On the horizon, a moving "metal mountain range" is crushing in!

Those were a full twenty siege beasts! These behemoths were over five meters tall and nearly ten meters long, like a hybrid of a rhinoceros and a pangolin magnified several times over! Their entire bodies were covered with thick, dark blue metal plates that gleamed with a cold light, with large rivets embedded in their joints, and a thick layer of ice had formed on the surface of their armor.

With each stomp of their thick limbs, they sank deep into the frozen ground, leaving huge craters. Their heads hung low, and hot, sulfurous white steam billowed from their mouths and nostrils covered by metal masks, quickly condensing into ice crystals in the frigid air.

Even more chilling was the sight of a massive metal saddle strapped to the back of each siege beast! On these saddles, several Fallen Overlords, wielding flaming whips, were furiously lashing the beasts' thick hides, driving them forward. On the supports flanking the saddles, several hellish slingers rode, these hunched demons gathering ominous crimson fireballs in their hands, vigilantly scanning their surroundings!

At the very front of the procession, three exceptionally large siege beasts, their armor etched with ferocious fel runes, stood out conspicuously! Their eye sockets burned not ordinary red light, but a dark golden flame like molten lava!

"Hiss..." Wu Ye gasped, the icy air stinging his lungs. A full twenty siege beasts! Three dark gold leaders! This lineup was enough to directly attack Harrogath's ice wall! Their target was self-evident—it must be some weak point in the wall's defenses! "No wonder I didn't encounter any in the frozen tundra, they're all gathered here!" he cursed inwardly.

"Master, shall we fight?" The high priest's voice was solemn, and holy light flowed around her, ready to deploy a shield at any moment.

Wu Ye's eyes were sharp as knives as he rapidly weighed his options. Run? Given the speed of the siege beasts and the range of the slingers on their backs, retreating on the open ice plains would make them sitting ducks! Fight? These iron behemoths' defenses were simply insane! Whether Skeleton Brother's greatsword could even penetrate that thick armor was uncertain!

"Attack!" Wu Ye gritted his teeth, a glint of madness flashing in his eyes. "But we have to fight at my pace! Skeleton Bro, target the leftmost 'City Crusher'! Storm Strike, create an opening in its armor! High Priest, prepare Blessing of Honor! All Skeleton Warriors, Bone Shield defensive formation, withstand the first wave of attack! Archers and Mages, prioritize taking down the Overseer and Slinger on the saddle!"

The order was issued instantly!

"Roar!" Soulfire exploded in Skeleton Brother's eyes! He threw down his short sword and activated Teleportation! His figure transformed into a black lightning bolt that tore through the wind and snow, instantly appearing beside the leftmost Citybreaker Golosh! The greatsword, wrapped in shadowy power that tore through space, slashed fiercely at the relatively weak shoulder joint of the Siege Beast with a piercing shriek!

"Storm Strike!"

boom!

Click——!

A piercing clang of metal clashing against metal was accompanied by a teeth-grinding cracking sound! The sword, imbued with the power of thunder, slammed into the dark blue armor! The thick metal plate caved in and twisted! A deep crack spread out, scattering ice shards and metal fragments! But… it didn't completely break through! Gorosh, in pain, let out a deafening roar, his massive, frost-covered head slamming into Skeleton King! At the same time, a divine freezing aura suddenly erupted! A bone-chilling cold swept through the surroundings!

Skeleton Bro blocked with his greatsword!

"clang--!"

A dull, deafening roar! The immense force sent Skeleton Brother sliding back several meters, a thick layer of white frost instantly forming on his bone armor! His speed visibly decreased!

"Aging! Increased damage!" Wu Ye's curse, like a leech, instantly clung to Golosh! Its movements visibly slowed down, and the despairing defensive sheen on its body dimmed considerably!

"Blessing of Honor!" The High Priest raised his hands high, and holy light shone brightly! A warm and powerful golden halo instantly enveloped Skeleton Bro and the skeleton warriors in the front row!
