Weng!
The sound of a vibrating bowstring rang out. More than twenty bone arrows shot straight ahead and instantly hit the striding skeleton war general.
This volley of arrows completely disregarded whether they would hit the skeleton guards engaged in battle with the skeleton war general. Apparently, the skeleton wizard knew very well how to make choices. At this moment, he chose to sacrifice the pawns to protect the king.
And his choice was undoubtedly correct. As the arrows rained down and exploded one after another, although two skeleton guards were killed instantly, the remaining ones were also missing limbs.
But the skeleton war general who was directly hit by the attack didn't have an easy time either. Amidst the flying bone fragments all over the sky, this guy was sent flying backwards. There wasn't a single undamaged part on his body.
Before the skeleton war general could struggle to get up from the ground, several bone lances stabbed down from above. They inserted through the gaps in his bones and instantly pinned him to the ground.
The Lance Locking Technique! The very technique that Gu Erdan used to handle another skeleton war general a few months ago and managed to kill him!
At this moment, it was actually imitated by the skeleton wizard!
Originally, the gaps between the bones of a skeleton soldier were large. If someone used a weapon to jam the joints, he would have nowhere to exert his strength and could only be at the mercy of others.
This was the plight of the skeleton war general at this moment.
"Roar!!!"
The skeleton war general pinned to the ground struggled desperately to break free from the bone lances, but unfortunately to no avail.
Just as he was struggling desperately to break free from the bone lances, a mass of black mist suddenly emerged in front of him.
Only to see the skeleton wizard raise his arm. The mist above the bone staff in his hand condensed and instantly turned into a small, crystal-clear bone spear! With a whoosh, it flew out!
Three-ring Nether Spell! Spear of the Dead!
This was the signature move of the skeleton wizard and also his most powerful means of dealing with enemies! The last skeleton war general died under this move!
The Spear of the Dead could be said to be one of the most powerful in terms of attack power among three-ring spells. Its characteristic was extremely strong penetration. However, this move consumed a great deal of energy. With the intensity of the skeleton wizard's soul fire, he could at most fire it three times in a day.
Moreover, although this move had strong penetration, it had more speed than accuracy. Especially when dealing with close combat masters, it was easy for them to dodge with their flexible movements.
If it were normal, as long as the skeleton war general was on guard and the distance wasn't too close, he wouldn't be hit by this move.
But at this moment, he had already been pinned to the ground and couldn't break free from the restraint in a short time, which happened to provide the most favorable opportunity for the Spear of the Dead to attack.
With a sharp crack, the swiftly shot Spear of the Dead precisely pierced the chest of the skeleton war general, shattering his spine and sending his ribs and breastbone flying in all directions. The entire person was actually blown in half from the middle.
Seeing this scene, the skeleton wizard didn't relax his vigilance. Instead, he waved the staff in his hand and used another move on him.
The second Spear of the Dead was launched and struck the skeleton war general who had fallen to the ground. At this time, his upper body was propping itself up with one arm and struggling to crawl towards him.
With a loud bang, the head of the skeleton war general separated from his body. The already cracked head rolled to the feet of the skeleton wizard, who stepped on it with one foot.
Looking at the skeleton war general with its upper and lower jaws constantly snapping shut as it still tried to bite him, a hint of a smile appeared in the eyes of the skeleton wizard.
Another huge harvest! Absorbing the soul fire of the same level can allow him to evolve rapidly. Growing at this rate, he will soon break through the limit of the third rank and become the legendary fourth-rank Great Skeleton Wizard!
By that time! He will undergo a complete transformation! The small group he could originally control, which was only a hundred strong, will increase sharply to a thousand, becoming a real army!
Just as the skeleton wizard was daydreaming about the wonderful future, the skull he had stepped on suddenly struggled and lifted.
In the next moment, only to see the skeleton head open its big mouth. As the ghost fire danced in its mouth, the black mist actually condensed into a ball and was spat out with a "spit" sound.
[Second-ring Undead spell! Breath of Hatred!]
Boom!
The skeleton wizard, caught off guard, had his leg blown off. His body lost his balance severely, and he fell to the ground on the spot.
As he fell, he happened to look directly into the eyes of the skeleton war general's head. Looking at the open mouth of the skeleton war general and the black mist still gathering in its mouth, the skeleton wizard felt his soul freeze with fear.
I'm going to die!!!
Boom!
Another loud noise. The black ball that was spit out flew past the top of the skeleton wizard's head, even leaving a black mark on his skull, but failed to hit the skeleton wizard's bones.
It turned out that at this critical moment, Gu Erdan, who sensed something was wrong, pounced forward, grabbed the remaining leg of the skeleton wizard, and forcefully dragged him away from the spot, thus saving him from being killed by a direct hit to the head.
The reaction of the skeleton wizard was extremely fast. The moment he dodged this move, he had already raised his finger and forcefully pointed at the only remaining head of the skeleton war general.
[The third Spear of the Dead! Launch!]
With a loud bang! The skeleton war general, who was still trying to fight back, had his entire head blown to pieces and lost his life signs on the spot.
A large amount of high-quality third-rank soul fire spread out and condensed in mid-air, causing a commotion between the remaining skeleton soldiers and skeleton guards nearby.
This was an instinctive greed. If it weren't for their fear of the skeleton wizard, whose strength far exceeded their own, they would have probably come to scramble for it long ago and started fighting between themselves.
Just as the skeletons around were in constant commotion and some even began to move towards this direction, the skeleton wizard lying on the ground suddenly snorted.
Along with the sound came the soul pressure, which instantly silenced the rioting skeletons.
With the help of Gu Erdan, the skeleton wizard quickly recovered his injuries. As for that poor sod whose leg was torn off? Who would care what treatment a skeleton soldier received?
Leaning on his staff, the skeleton wizard stood up, quickly put away the ball of soul fire, and gleefully found a corner to sit down and absorb it.
As for Gu Erdan who had helped him? He completely ignored him.
No! He didn't completely ignore him! Before absorbing the soul fire, this guy didn't forget to give Gu Erdan an order, which was to treat the injured skeleton guards.
And he even assigned two skeleton soldiers to help him.
Looking back at the bony figures following him, Gu Erdan's eyes flickered, and he couldn't help but sigh.
Sure enough, he's an ungrateful brute who never learns! I saved his life! Not giving any rewards is fine! He's actually still on guard against me!
These two bony figures following are not helpers at all! They are clearly here to supervise! As long as Gu Erdan makes any move to take the soul fire, they will surely stop him.
(Fine, fine! You're tough! If I weren't scared that if you kicked the bucket, I'd get ripped to shreds by those other bone - headed soldiers, I wouldn't have saved your sorry ass!)
Muttering angrily to himself, Gu Erdan could only follow the skeleton wizard's orders. Looking dejected, he began rummaging through the bones to help the others heal their wounds.
Just as he was directing a skeleton soldier to work - he could only direct one at a time, with the other always staying behind to watch him - Gu Erdan accidentally kicked a skull with his foot.
In the next instant, Gu Erdan suddenly froze in place, and his whole body trembled uncontrollably for a moment.
What the hell is this?!
