Limitless The Strongest Revenant

My girls quickly dispersed on my command. Jas quickly found the highest point of the building we were on and scanned the entire structure for enemies. With {Perceive}, {Imaging}, and {Sonar}, it was extremely unlikely that she would overlook an enemy.

Even if something miraculously did, [Guardian Angel], [Autoload], and [Autosave] would ensure my family's survival Unless another champion-ranked bastard like Roach appeared, we should be safe. If ever, it would be the rest of our group that would be in danger.

"You two, come with us. We will draw everything in this zone into a melee. Protect Liv while Jas and I provide support," Lilly Browning commanded.

"Yes, my lady!" x2

Liv walked to an open area and began to invoke [War Cry]. While this would be perfect for clearing out this base, it would be dangerous if we get overwhelmed by vampires.

As if reading my mind, my Princess provided an answer. I noticed that the sound waves did not extend past this building. she seemed to be using spatial doorways to ensure that the taunts did not leave this area.

Meanwhile Nyda's body began to surge with powerful electric currents. Like a goddess of thunder, her eyes began to glow, and if I didn't know better, I would have thought she was a comic book superhero.

Her {Kindred} was extremely boring in comparison. Leo drew his sword and walked beside Liv as her escort. With him specializing in physical damage and his wife seeming to adapt to elemental attacks, their group should be able to handle anything that came their way.

"{I AM FREYJA! THE SHIELD OF THE LIMITLESS! COME FORTH ALL WHO CHALLENGE HIS WILL!}"

I couldn't help but chuckle when I heard my northern lover's violent roar. However, the moment the taunt traveled around the structure, {Sonar} suddenly showed over two hundred signatures. It was as if the castle had suddenly come to life.

Zombies and white corpses erupted from every corner. Once again, the monsters were able to hide from our detection.

{Sonar} should be able to find anything with a soul or those {Listen} could hear. So far, it was able to find every reaper, but it seemed that wasn't the case for the monsters.

'...'

But then it hit me. Phillip's explanation came up again.

"Now the next combinations are only in Hellsgate but still fit this explanation rather well. A dead body without a soul but has spirit is a zombie. A body with soul but has no spirit is either a golem, or an undead or something similar. Finally, a spirit with soul without a body would be a ghost."

At present, the terms were quite confusing. In the body, soul, and spirit analogy from religion, the Reaper equivalent was body, soulgem, soul energy. Rank F's, the textbook example of zombies, were bodies that moved without soulgems.

Thus, by {Sonar}'s definition, it was a given that they would not appear. Similarly, Roach, a champion-level monster, seemed invisible to it. Likewise, Gaspar and Evelyn remained undetected until I saw them and felt them move.

This would lead one to believe that they all had no souls. But if that was true, how could they think? Maybe that was why they were different from reapers? The absence of a soul?

'Maybe they were like dogs? Beings that had personality but no ego. But where would that put them? Does that even matter to us?'

Anyone who loved a pet knew that, despite being of the same breed and family, the animals themselves had differences. More than just physical in most cases.

Despite not having a soul, most pets had personailty. Some dogs loved to bathe while others did not. Because dogs had limited intelligence, they were not considered equal to humans.

But even though everyone acknowledged this fact, they were excellent companions. They knew how to learn, how to hate, and above all, they could express loyalty and affection.

As I thought about this, the parallel between monsters and dogs became clearer.

'Were undead and demons the same?'

"KYA!" "PIX!"

Brought back to reality by my {Vassal}'s scream, I saw one of the white corpses bump into Pixie. The corpse was white as snow and had no hair, although it looked human. Its eyes were black as night, and its bones were sticking out of its skin even though it was muscular.

D, quickly helped Pix up and began to beat the undead with his weapon. Since his job was to investigate, the hesitation to shoot made him resort to bludgeoning the corpses. Those that were hit shook their heads before coming at D.

'I see, the taunt breaks when you get hit in the face. So a blunt trauma could undo the slight brainwashing from [War Cry]. Unlike the way Jo does it, [War Cry] could not be used to braninwash an army while in battle.'

"{Day by Day}, [Shared Armory]."

Summoning my army of soul avatars, we formed a defensive line and began to pulverize those coming for D. Four were using lead while only two of my avatars used Sacreds. The corpses, similar to those of Rank F, disintegrated when damaged by our blessed bullets.

"D, Pixie. Concentrate on your task. I will protect you," I reassured them.

"Yes, my lord!" x 2

Using my avatars, we began shooting the legs and arms of those who approached my {Vassals}. Effectively turned into snails, these white corpses lost their focus on Liv and instead crawled pitifully toward me.

The difference between the species became apparent when they were shot with Sacreds.

The zombies turned to golden ash, no matter where they were hit. The white corpses, on the other hand, had large parts of them turned to golden dust, but they were able to resist the purification somewhat.

Using Sunday, I carefully approached the ones moving like snails and shot them in the jaw with the Raging Hunter. Two unblessed .500 S&W Magnums shattered the parts connecting their jaws to their skulls. Although the skin was still intact, the muscles were completely destroyed by my violent attacks.

In order to bite something, you needed an upper jaw and a lower jaw. By smashing the lower one, it would prevent these bastards from hurting my men.

Explosions echoed behind me. The familiar sound of M433 40mm low velocity grenades was comforting. As if that were not enough, I saw a trail of glorious blue light streaking down from the sky.

"{LIGHTNING BOLT}!"

The devastating sound of thunder soon followed. With a mighty crash, the impact of Nyda's strike resounded. I began to feel sorry for the poor zombie who was unlucky enough to be on the receiving end of such a imposing attack.

{Listen} also picked up the brutal sounds of metal tearing flesh. Along with the oppressive sound of metal crushing bone. Even though he was using only a greatsword, Leo's swings sounded like the blades of a giant windmill.

The sound of liquids fell like rain droplets on the ground. It proved how violent and effective Leo's fighting style was. However, since he used a normal sword, I began to wonder how he would fare against the tainted undead. My weapons suffered greatly when I fought the Draugrs once before.

'{Imaging}- Microscopic. Exa, show me the characteristics of Leo's weapon.'

[Yes, my lord. His weapon has the following chemical composition. Iron - 95%, Carbon - 2%, Manganese - 1.65%, Silicon - 0.60%, Sulfur - 0.5%, Phosphorus - 0.4%, Tungsten - 0.2%, Vanadium - 0.2%, Nickel - 0.01%, Chromium - 0.01%, Copper - 0.02%, and Molybdenum - 0.01%].

'That sounds complicated as fuck, does such a composition have any special properties?

[No, my lord, the following elemental composition is for ordinary steel. There is nothing about his sword that would give the impression that it is special, except for its weight, which seems heavier than normal].

'I see. I guess he doesn't show his cards that openly. Forget it. With him and his wife, Liv should have no trouble wiping out the enemies.'

I shifted my focus from the cleaning group's battle to the one in front of me.

My six avatars accompanied Pixie and D as they went about their duties. Disabled zombies and white corpses littered the ground.

Even without arms, legs, and jaws, the severed torsos tried to writhe towards Pixie and D. Not holding back, I bashed them with the butts of my rifles or kicked them away like soccer balls.

"What the hell are you fuckers?"
