Global Awakening: Apocalypse Ender's Chronicle-Chapter 1110: Roan the Fire Dragon
In her meditation chamber, Fiona finally felt ready...
The chaos happening within the Ghoul Shelter was observed by her through the rat accompanying Lysandra’s group...
She knew about the bombardments, the appearance of the other clans, the Zombie Lords, and their clash against Lysandra’s forces...
Although it seemed dangerous, she remained calm.
Her mission was crucial to the success of their siege operation.
At this time, she had already opened the box of items that Shane had gifted to her.
Inside the box were the treasured items he had gifted to her. Each piece wasn’t anything ordinary at all... One by one, she equipped them.
"Nice... It’s been a while." Fiona muttered as she checked her set.

Needless to say, the two were all obtained from Stalker Zombie King. Shane, of course, provided the complete set to Fiona.
However, after some deliberation, Fiona decided not to take the complete Stalker King Set... The Set Effects may be good, but she felt that it would be more appropriate to use other equipment that would balance her set of skills.
So, instead of taking all the Silent King Set, she also wore three other pieces of equipment, and this time, they came from the Hunter King Set!
[ Hunter Leather Armor ( Legendary ): Flexible armor forged from enchanted leather, layered to absorb impact without noise. Provides high defense while maintaining stealth.

Needless to say, after wearing three of the Hunter, it was recognized by the system.
[ Set Effect Activated! ]

"Ohhh... This is awesome..." Fiona muttered.
She knew very well that being able to summon a Hunter King Zombie would greatly boost her strength. The summoned Zombie would also greatly help her in case she was in a pinch and needed a distraction in order to escape.
Just like that, Fiona stood fully equipped now.
Cloak draped over her shoulders, boots felt comfortable on her feet, armor fitted snugly, while the dagger gleamed faintly in her hand.
She looked less like a Summoner but more like an Assassin now.
"Hehe..."
She was no longer just Fiona, the manipulator of rats. She felt like a shadow of death, cloaked in silence, prepared to infiltrate the deepest chamber of Ghoul Shelter...
"This will be exciting..." She muttered.
She closed her eyes, focusing on the bond with her surviving rat. Through its senses, she saw Roan chained, struggling with his draconic aura flickering faintly.
Her lips curved into a smile. "It’s time."
She raised her hand, channeling her Spirit Points. The bond with her rat pulsed, threads of energy weaving between them.
[ Rat Swap Lv5 (Active): Exchange locations with a bound rat. Cost: 500 Spirit Points. ]
The chamber was soon filled with light...
In just a few moments, Fiona’s body dissolved into shadow, while her rat vanished from the prison in a burst of light.
In the same instant, their positions reversed!
Fiona appeared beside Roan with her cloak fluttering silently as her boots touched the cold stone floor. Then, her rat materialized back in her meditation chamber, squeaking faintly before curling into the bed she had left behind.
It could finally relax after doing so many tasks within the shelter. It certainly deserves to have some vacation now... 𝒻𝑟ℯℯ𝑤𝑒𝑏𝑛𝘰𝓋𝑒𝓁.𝒸𝑜𝘮
’Gru?’
Meanwhile, Roan’s eyes widened... Then, after smelling the rat from Fiona’s body, he immediately calmed down and felt excited.
His chains rattled as he recognized that she was an ally!
His growl softened as he was filled with relief.
Fiona smiled and stepped closer and took out her dagger...
She placed a hand on one of the chains and whispered.
"Calm down, Roan... I’m gonna save you now."
***
Outside Ghoul Shelter, the battle was still on going...
It was all thanks to their Barrier Generators that seemed to be capable of regenerating many times, allowing them to defend their base...
Furthermore, Alexander seemed to have a lot of Zombie Recruitment Stones.
Still, the clash between undead monstrosities and Lysandra’s disciplined army should be ending pretty soon...
The Zombie Lords, Bloated Chin, Tongue Reaper, and Raven Horror, had rampaged unchecked for several minutes, scattering soldiers and damaging mechs, but that was it.
After some time, Lysandra’s Aegis Mech units had finally adjusted their formation.
Although the Aegis Mechs were having a hard time against the Zombie Lords, they were able to slowly wear the Lords down.
No matter what, their injuries would accumulate and hinder their movements.
Bloated Chin stumbled as another shell detonated against its swollen chest...
Boom!
Acid then started spraying out of its body as it was slowly losing strength...
Tongue Reaper’s tongues lashed out, but one was severed by a mech’s saber strike, forcing the creature to retreat momentarily.
Raven Horror also shrieked in fury as its wing was pierced by a barrage of anti‑air fire, sending it spiraling before regaining altitude.
The Lords were still dangerous, but they were losing their strength...
Being able to last this long against the coordination of the Aegis Mech and the powerful mages on Lysandra’s side was truly impressive.
Even Sona and Otto could only focus on the enemy Survivors since the Zombie Lords this time were a bit too tricky for them to handle...
"They’re getting serious now..." Lysandra muttered as she noticed that the three other clans increased their pressure.
Skyfang’s Flying Crews appeared in the air once more with a greater number...
Soon, they launched a second wave of poisoned arrows, raining down on Warden Units and artillery crews. Their falcons also dove into the battlefield, clawing at soldiers and distracting turrets, making their targeting system fail multiple times!
Ironclad Brotherhood pushed harder, forcing Warden Units back.
Then, the Mystic Gate assassins struck again, planting explosives on another artillery truck!
The detonation sent shrapnel flying, silencing another cannon!
The battlefield grew more chaotic as Lysandra’s formation started crumbling under the combined pressure of Lords, Tyrants, and clan forces.
Still, she wasn’t panicking...
She had finally received Fiona’s signal!
"What took you so long?!" Lysandra complained. Then, she secretly informed her troops to slowly retreat!
***
Meanwhile, from the battlements, Alexander watched with excitement...
His gamble was paying off. The Lords had drawn Lysandra’s fire, the clans had finally committed more effort, and now the tide seemed to be turning.
But he wasn’t finished. He raised his hand, signaling his commanders.
"Release the Phalanx Battalion!"
The gates of Ghoul Shelter opened, and Alexander’s elite troops surged forward.
Clad in heavy armor, wielding enchanted weapons, the Phoenix Phalanx moved...
At this time, they were all drugged to ensure that they would be able to fight against the Warden Units with ease!
They charged into the battlefield, reinforcing their comrades and pressing Lysandra’s forces harder.
The battlefield erupted into full chaos!
For a moment, victory seemed within reach.
Then, the atmosphere on the battlefield changed!
Roooarrr!
