Chapter 25: In the Sea of Skeletons, One Slash To Kill a War General!

Bruce was looking at the skeleton commander.

The skeleton commander was also looking at Bruce.

The leaders of both sides had not given the order to attack. The two skeleton corps, which had a huge difference in quantity and quality, were also facing each other from hundreds of meters away.

Bruce was observing the skeleton commander to calculate the general four-dimensional attributes of the skeleton commander. At the same time, he was also looking for a breakthrough point. He was looking for the direction from which he should break into the center of the sea of skeletons to hunt the skeleton commander.

The skeleton commander was observing Bruce because its immature intelligence could not figure out why such a strange-looking elite skeleton would destroy eight skeleton armies in such a short time.

There were benefits to being among the undead.

Since it could not figure it out, the skeleton commander did not want to think about it anymore.

When the skeleton army under its command was only a few hundred meters away from the enemy, the skeleton commander raised the machete in its hand.

The next moment, the scimitar slashed down.

The skeleton army, which numbered more than 4,000, charged at the enemy at the same time. It was heading in their direction.

‘It’s starting…’

When the skeleton army was heading in their direction, Bruce also gave the order at the same time. His skeleton underlings assembled into their formation to deal with the impact of the skeleton army.

The skeleton army under Bruce’s command could not be compared to the skeleton army under the skeleton commander. They were outnumbered and at a disadvantage, generally.

However, their mission was not to win the war.

They only needed to withstand the impact of the skeleton army, attract the attention of the skeleton army, and hold them back.

It was a different kind of mission.

These thousand or so skeletons that Bruce had carefully selected were competent.

The skeleton guards were at the outermost layer, enduring the first impact of the skeleton army. Within the skeleton guards, the skeleton warriors led the skeleton soldiers to form a second line of defense.

At the innermost layer, there were the skeleton mages and skeleton archers that Bruce had gathered.

Time passed by slowly.

The skeleton army was getting closer and closer to their side.

When the distance between the two was only a hundred meters, Bruce gave an order. The dozen or so skeleton guards at the outermost layer stabbed the bottom of the skeleton tower shield into the ground at the same time, and their entire bodies crouched down. They were ready to receive the first charge of the skeleton army.

The skeleton warriors and skeleton soldiers held their weapons and waited.

Under Bruce’s command, the skeleton archers and skeleton mages threw a large rain of arrows and a dozen netherworld fireballs at the sea of skeletons from a distance of a hundred meters.

The rain of arrows and Netherworld fireballs were not aimless attacks.

Under Bruce’s command, his only skeleton archers and the skeleton mages were divided into three teams. Each team focused on one target. The targets were the skeleton warriors and skeleton generals.

The skeleton archers and the skeleton mages worked together.

Almost every time they fired in unison, they would be able to shatter a skeleton warrior and turn it into charred bones. If the three teams focused their attacks, even the elite-ranked skeleton generals would be crippled in a very short period of time.

Bruce’s army did this over and over again.

When the skeleton ocean crossed over a hundred meters and was about to collide with the skeleton army under Bruce’s command, more than ten skeleton warriors and three skeleton warriors had already fallen under the concentrated attacks of the skeleton archers and skeleton mages.

Then…

Boom!

The two skeleton armies collided.

“Space-splitting Slash!”

“Space-splitting Slash!”

At this moment, Bruce and his elite skeleton swordsman underling exploded at the same time. Two brilliant light blades tore through the air and slashed into the pale white sea of skeletons, killing a large number of skeleton soldiers. In an instant, a small empty space was cleared on the battlefield.

And then, after letting the elite skeleton swordsman continue to release their skills to support his skeleton army, Bruce himself jumped up—a powerful strength and speed attribute burst through the area.

After leaving a deep footprint on the ground, Bruce’s body soared into the air, directly crossing a distance of more than ten meters, and charged into the sea of skeletons.

Ring slash!

Boom!

The skeleton broadsword slashed out.

The bright blade slashed through the air, cutting all the skeletons within a two-meter radius into half. Bruce once again soared into the air, pouncing towards the center of the sea of skeletons.

Once…

Twice…

Three times!

Every time Bruce rose into the air, he would cross a distance of more than ten meters.

Every single time, he would be one step closer to the skeleton commander at the center of the sea of skeletons!

When he fell into the sea of skeletons for the seventh time, Bruce was only ten meters away from the skeleton commander. He only needed one last leap to reach it.

The skeleton commander was not a fool.

Because of Bruce’s rank, it did not attach much importance to Bruce. At the same time, because of its low level of intelligence, it did not belittle Bruce.

When Bruce fell for the seventh time, an invisible soul fluctuation was emitted from the body of the skeleton commander. The skeleton mages around it all turned around and aimed at Bruce.

There were dozens of skeleton mages.

Among them were several terrifying mages who had stepped into the elite rank.

If it was just the skeleton mages, Bruce could still rely on his strong constitution and defensive power to resist, but the terrifying mages were not easy to deal with. A spellcaster at that rank was already enough to inflict huge damage.

Should he charge or not?

This thought flashed through Bruce’s mind.

When the thick death aura gathered in the skeleton mages’ bone staffs, and when the Dark Blue Netherworld fireballs began to appear, Bruce rushed to the front of a skeleton general with lightning speed.

He slashed out, and he used his strength of 134 points. The skeleton general did not even have the ability to resist before its head was chopped off.

Grabbing the body of the skeleton general, Bruce used it as a shield in front of him and soared into the air for the eighth time!

At the same time, he unleashed his only two skills.

“Sky Splitter!”

“Gale Combo!”

Boom!

A dense explosion spread in the air, and a pile of charred bones fell at the same time, scattering on the ground.

This was the skeleton general’s body.

Using the skeleton general’s body to block the skeleton mages’ first concentrated attack, Bruce, who was in the air, also used his only two active skills.

Sky Splitter!

Gale Combo!

Two completely different light blades exploded, like fireworks exploding among the skeleton mages.

That’s right!

In this eighth leap, Bruce did not pounce on the skeleton commander, who was already in front of him. Instead, he used the skeleton general’s body as a cover and charged into the group of skeleton mages.

Compared to the warrior-level skeleton commander, it was obvious that there were dozens of skeleton mages in total.

The threat to Bruce was even greater.
