Chapter 221: Necromancy Against Machines ----- RUMBLE! The underground caverns trembled. A battle between my entire party and the robots below was going on full swing. The explosion of demonic flames, holy light, and laser beams reverberated across the wide underground corridors. A never-ending swarm of hundreds of mechanical beasts rushed towards us. This time I didn’t ask the Death Apostles to become weapons or equipment; although I had considered that for my Familiars, who were slightly weaker before being able to evolve again, I reconsidered that and decided to summon them as bodyguards instead. Now that their souls are bound into the Purgatory, even if they perish now, they’ll respawn inside the Purgatory and take some cooldown before fully regenerating and being able to be summoned again. This played around with the concept of Death Apostles being entities that could create manifestations of themselves. Their “true bodies” were their powerful Demonic Souls, which were kept sealed shut inside the Purgatory. This made it so I had a squad of suicidal death apostles ready to roll with anything I had in mind anyway, in exchange for better treatment and food later. Some even asked me for specific things. Neberius said that as long as I give him some delicious seeds later, he’ll be fine. Meanwhile, Astaroth asked for grilled meat from the highest-quality demonic beasts I could find. I think I had some in my inventory, so I’ll be feeding him that. All of them had specific conditions like these. Although I could force them to cooperate anyway, it wasn’t my style, and I wanted a relationship with them that felt more like equals than a master and their slave. I don’t want to take any slaves. They already knew they were “forced” into this situation due to their misdeeds. I could have easily killed them like I did with Uroboros, but I decided to keep them alive instead. They’ll pay for their wrongdoings by helping me do good things instead. Isn’t that a nice sentence? CLAAASH! My Nameless Axe-Sword clashed against the head of a giant spider-like mechanical beast. I didn’t even activate its special abilities as they consumed a lot of Mana, which I didn’t have, and it would consume too much Ki. However, the weight alone of this weapon was more than enough to pulverize the heads and limbs of most of the generic mechanical beasts. Although the three basic techniques require Mana, the Labors consume no energy but are limited to a certain amount per day, so I am saving them when I fight a big enough foe. “SHAAAH!” “GROOOH!” “ROOAAR!” Over a dozen more mechanical beasts rushed from behind me, opening their jaws and pointing their sharp metallic fangs and claws against me. Tigers, wolves, spiders, ants, and mantis-shaped ones were the most common of them. The ants were mostly designed as workers that carried items; the mantises used their pickaxe-shaped arms to dig the ores; and the spiders opened the caves by digging them and securing them with spider-web-like substances. Tigers and wolves were guards and were not as numerous. They were all fiercely fighting, but it was clear that the miners and carriers were simply not made to fight against the Martial Artists of a Murim World. And it showed. CLAAASH! Their claws and fangs reached me, yet I was able to block them with my weapons, Gram and the Nameless Axe-Sword, and my own armor and body. The combination of several passive skills boosted my endurance and weight, with the best ones being Warrior Princess Physique and Steel Body, my tough armor, my shield, and my weapons and martial arts. I was kind of invincible right now, and for once, it felt really good. “What? Is that all you’ve got? You’ve tormented this world’s people and killed almost everyone, but you can’t stop a single girl from coming to destroy your little factory?” “RAAAH!” The robots were clearly pissed, with the tigers opening their jaws to unleash beams of neon blue laser energy. Which I quickly sliced with Gram, releasing a
