Chapter 1860: Fighting A Monster Army With Another Monster Army

The ground was shaking, and the roar of hundreds of beasts echoed across the entire jungle. A Jungle King was approaching. I'm guessing he has been sent here by the Genie after he detected our presence and, because the chief invited us to her tribe, she ended revealing her hideout to him as he tracker our strong presence.
I guess we have to take responsibility for this.
"T-The Jungle King is coming?! Already?!" The chief panicked. "So soon?! We won't have enough time to escape...!" She quickly grabbed a spear imbued with mana and miasma, her only weapon. "I'll try to stop the monsters, all of you should run away!"
"What are you talking about? There's no need to run." I said with a smile. "Leave it to us."
"Eh?! But...!" The chief seemed concerned about us as well. Geez, she doesn't show it but she's actually a really considerate person.
"It might be partially our fault this is happening." Luminous said. "We are enemies of the Genie, he must have tracked our presences here and then discovered your hideout."
"You are his enemies?" Wondered the chief. "Like... he recognizes you as his foes?! He had only called us insects..."
"Well, we've got quite the history with the bastard." Elfina said angrily. "I've got some grudges to settle with him as well."
I grabbed the jewel the chief gave me and smiled back at her.
"Still, come with us so you can see for yourself our strength. I'll take down that Jungle King and free your people from the fear that bastard has spread into your tribe." I said. "I promise you."
"K-Kireina..." The chief felt slightly moved. "V-Very well!"
She quickly ran with us outside the camp, as I quickly left Yggdra in here, who encompassed the entire place in her branches similarly to Goldsand.
Once we reached the outskirts, we saw the enormous beast approaching. It resembled a gigantic long-necked dinosaur, something like a Brachiosaurus. However, it was coated on black and purple scales, and it had six red eyes, several spikes all over its back, and a sharp tail with a spear-like end.
It had the size of around seventy meters of height, and it was certainly a titan gazing over the Jungle with great authority. Unlike the dinosaur-like monsters it controlled, which made an army of at least a few hundred, it was walking slowly towards us, most likely believing it was an unstoppable force.
Well, that was about to change.
"I-It's him... the long-necked devil!" Cried the chief. "He... he was the first one to appear, he destroyed our temples, our houses, he trampled over my people..." She gritted her teeth, imbuing her powers into her spear. "I'll fight as well! I cannot simply stay and watch!"
"I guess it cannot be helped." I sighed. "Now, Silva! Bring our army as well!"
"Okay~!" Silva said happily, quickly summoning a gigantic Gate in the middle of space, and bringing out an army of monsters.
Silva had evolved into an A+ Rank Ego now, and all of her Skills have developed greatly too. Now, she was even able to summon some new monsters, much stronger than before.

Not only she gained many new Skills, but many of her old ones have also leveled up greatly, becoming much stronger than before, especially her Summon Dungeon Monster Skill, which was now Level 7 and could summon A Rank and S Rank Monsters.
[Summon Dungeon Monster: Lv7]
Skill Proficiency: 0/70000
As a Dungeon, you're able to summon Dungeon Monsters. Each Dungeon has their own set of unique monsters they can summon. The monster's innate power depends in the strength and level of the Dungeon and the level of this Skill.
Summoned Dungeon Monsters cannot level up by themselves nor develop skills but can become better at their already acquired Abilities through practice, and if they have high amounts of Intelligence Stat, they're able to learn patterns and even languages.
New monsters are unlocked with each Skill Level. All Stats of all Summoned Monsters increase by +20% with each Skill level naturally. Additionally, their HP and MP regeneration increases by +5% with each Skill Level. These effects double for Monsters below C+ Rank.
Available Monsters:
Level 1: [Monkey Barbarian (F- Rank)], [Armored Rhino (F+ Rank)]
Level 2: [Ogre Warrior (E- Rank)], [Fire Salamander (E+ Rank)]
Level 3: [Skeleton Knight (D- Rank)], [Stone Golem (D+ Rank)]
Level 4: [Lesser Basilisk (C- Rank)], [Blue Slime (C+ Rank)]
Level 5: [Cursed Treant (B- Rank)], [Abyss Spider (B+ Rank)]
Level 6: [Frost Wyvern (A- Rank)] [Lesser Fire Dragon (A+ Rank)]
Level 7: [Giant Glacial Wolf King (S- Rank)] [Gold Dragon (S+ Rank)]
However, they were a bit in the expensive side... S- Rank Monsters cost 1 Million Mana and S+ Rank costs 2 Million Mana, it wasn't a cost we could afford, so we went for the Level 6 Monsters instead, joining the army of weaker monsters as their leaders.
FLASH! FLASH! FLASH! FLASH!
An army of hundreds of monsters appeared in mere seconds, as they immediately clashed against the army of monsters led by the Jungle King. Naturally, Tahat-litu was shocked.
"Y-You can summon your own monsters?!"
