Chapter 33: One More Strike
Translator: Simple MTL Editor: Simple MTL
Why did Bruce spend so much effort to hunt this skeleton warden who was focused on improving his vitality?
Because the three warrior classes that he had hunted before represented one attribute.
—
Skeleton Commander ~ ~ ~ balance
Skeleton Sniper ~ ~ ~ speed
Dark Mage ~ ~ ~ spirit

And this skeleton warden who was focused on improving his vitality represented “vitality!”
Only the warrior class that combined these four class templates was the true warrior class template that Bruce really wanted!
However, this skeleton warden’s defensive ability was a little too outstanding. It even exceeded Bruce’s imagination.
The skeleton warden was a skeleton guard warrior that had advanced.
As a warrior class on the evolution chain, his skeleton equipment was not a tower shield like that of the skeleton guards. Instead, it was a wide, thick, and huge serrated blade that looked like a door.
The reason was simple…
Because when he had evolved to the skeleton warden stage, he no longer needed to use tower shields to strengthen his defense like the skeleton guards did.
The skeleton warden was not very tall. In fact, compared to Bruce, he was a little short.
However, in this body that was not considered tall, there was a different world. A large number of bones filled up the interior of the skeleton warden’s body.
An ordinary skeleton only had a skeleton. There was nothing inside the skeleton.
However, the skeleton warden had countless dark-gray bones growing out of this hollow skeleton body. They intertwined with each other like the roots of an ancient tree.
The skeleton warden’s skeleton was almost completely filled up. There was no space left. He looked like a real person. However, a human was made of flesh and blood, while he was densely packed with dark-gray bones.
To put it simply, as long as it was not the skeleton warden, from the skeleton soldiers to the Skeleton King, the body was a skeleton. It was not like the skeleton warden. It was a solid body.
With such a body, coupled with this skeleton prison warden who only had some talent, it was no wonder that he had exceeded Bruce’s expectations.
And God was fair. Since he had given such a level of defense, he was not as good as others in other aspects.
And the most obvious one was the skeleton prison warden’s speed. His speed was very slow, and he seemed to be the slowest among those of the same level.
It was not just because his innate template speed was slow. The dark-gray bones that almost filled his body were also one of the main culprits that affected the speed of the skeleton warden.
Bruce’s lightning strike was undoubtedly hit by the skeleton warden.
The skeleton warden also took advantage of Bruce’s momentum and flipped the huge serrated blade in his hand, slashing towards Bruce’s direction.
However, the skeleton warden’s speed was too slow!
Take the zombies that they had encountered a while ago as an example.
The zombies were naturally slow, and the skeleton warden was even slightly slower than the zombies.
Because of this, Bruce only had to turn his body slightly to dodge this powerful attack.
Then, the thick and powerful bone leg heavily stomped on the ground. As expected, a deep footprint appeared. Bruce also used this reaction force to suddenly increase his speed. In an instant, he appeared in the air behind the skeleton warden.
“Death Cut!”
The first time he made a move, Bruce had already seen the terrifying defensive power of the skeleton warden.
This time, he did not have any hope.
He knew that normal attacks would not be able to deal too much damage to the skeleton warden, and it would also delay his time.
Only the boss skill “Death cut” could allow him to quickly kill the skeleton warden before the Skeleton King returned and obtain the class template of the skeleton warden!
Moreover, he also had to avoid the head-on confrontation where the skeleton warden’s defense was the strongest!
Just like zombies, the turtle-like speed was the skeleton warden’s biggest weakness.
As a guard, the skeleton warden was well-deserved; when it appeared on the battlefield, it could also display a lot of its abilities.
However, in such a narrow space, in a one-on-one solo battle, the skeleton warden could only become a moving target!
Death cut slashed out for the second time.
Ten light blades joined together, and almost at the instant they burst out, they slashed at the skeleton warden’s body!
Moreover, the attack was aimed at the back of the skeleton warden’s neck!
All skeletons had a weakness, and the skeleton warden was no exception.
Although his body was strong, not every part of his body was made of metal. The back of his neck was his weakest point.
Only by attacking here would Bruce be able to kill this skeleton warden the fastest.
One strike!
This normal attack was twenty times more fierce, and it landed on the neck of the skeleton warden, directly cutting off more than half of his cervical vertebrae!
Just one more strike and the class template of this brave skeleton would become Bruce’s trophy!
After being hit by Bruce’s attack, the skeleton warden let out a roar.
A series of crisp footsteps could be heard, and they were getting closer and closer!
