Chapter 64: A Small Surprise

Translator: Dragon Boat Translation Editor: Dragon Boat Translation

The group marched forward in a mighty formation, accompanied by the ten Shallow Sea Murlocs stationed there. They crossed the shallow waters and arrived at the second mini-island.

Similar to before, the skeletons were roaming only within the first mini-island, without crossing the shallow waters to the main island. It was as if someone was controlling them from behind.

Fortunately, the efforts they made yesterday to clear the area had some effect. The number of skeletons roaming the first mini-island was now less than one-twentieth of yesterday’s count.

Jichen led his army to sweep through the area without much resistance. Soon, they reached the far end, gazing upon the second mini-island.

However, compared to yesterday, the density of skeletons seemed to have increased. Moreover, there was a higher proportion of Black Skeletons and Fiery Skeleton Hounds, which were more formidable forces.

Seeing this, Jichen felt a sinking feeling. If left unchecked, it wouldn’t take long for the number of skeletons here to exceed five digits. It would truly become a catastrophe of overwhelming undead.

“Roar!”

A horde of hundreds of White Skeletons crossed the shallow waters and approached. Upon seeing them, the horde let out a piercing roar, immediately alerting the other skeletons on the second mini-island.

In an instant, the Skeleton Sea erupted like a hornet’s nest. White Skeletons, Black Skeletons, Skeleton Hounds—thousands of them swarmed towards them.

His eyes were filled with flickering flames, and his ears were filled with the sound of bones grinding against each other.

Ji Chen’s scalp went numb when he saw this spectacular scene.

Gritting his teeth, he quickly deployed his army.

On the narrow beach connecting the two sub-islands, a defense line of about 50 meters long was built.

The Naga warriors were in the middle, responsible for resisting the pressure head-on.

The pirates stood on both sides, responsible for supporting.

A great battle was about to break out.

Rather than saying that the skeleton monster was rushing over, it was more accurate to say that it was being pushed forward by the skeleton monster behind it.

Many skeleton monsters were accidentally pushed to the ground by their own kind and were instantly drowned.

The air was filled with flickering flames, and the sound of bones rubbing against each other echoed in their ears.

Seeing this spectacular scene, Jichen felt a tingling sensation on his scalp. Clenching his teeth, he quickly deployed his troops.

On the narrow strip of land connecting the two mini-islands, they constructed a defensive line that stretched for about fifty meters. The Naga Warriors stood in the center, bearing the brunt of the enemy’s assault, while the pirates flanked them, providing support.

The imminent battle was about to begin. Rather than saying that the skeleton monsters charged forward voluntarily, it was more accurate to say that they were being pushed by the skeletons behind them.

Many skeletons accidentally stumbled and were instantly engulfed by the oncoming horde, trampled into pieces. Not even a complete bone could be found.

The ferocity generated from their self-inflicted carnage was astonishing. They surged like a white tsunami, instilling a sense of fear in everyone’s hearts.

Their speed was extremely fast, and in the blink of an eye, they were less than a hundred meters away from the defensive line.

Observing the scene, Jichen squinted his eyes and whispered, “Alice, proceed with the plan.”

The young Siren nodded and immediately unleashed her melodious voice.

“Laa—”

However, her singing only lasted for three seconds before abruptly stopping. Even though the singing only lasted for a brief moment, it had an impact on the leading part of the horde of skeletons.

These undead creatures, with poor mental resistance, were instantly immobilized upon hearing the song, losing control over their bodies.

But the sudden halt created a major problem.

How could a horde of skeletons, moving at high speed and standing in tight formation, stop all at once?

While the skeletons in the front halted upon hearing the song stop, those behind them didn’t hear it and continued to charge forward recklessly.

It was like a chain reaction.

The skeletons in the back crashed into the ones in the front, causing chaos and sending them sprawling in all directions.

The scene was filled with flickering flames and the scraping sound of bone-on-bone friction.

Witnessing this spectacular sight, Jichen couldn’t help but feel a shiver down his spine.

Without hesitation, he quickly deployed his army, constructing a defensive line along the narrow strip of land connecting the two islands.

Naga Warriors took the center position, bracing themselves for the frontal assault, while the Pirates flanked them, providing support.

The impending battle was about to begin.

Rather than the skeletons actively charging, it seemed like they were being pushed forward by the ones behind them.

Some skeletons stumbled and fell as they were unintentionally pushed by their comrades, instantly swallowed up by the masses.

Their bones were trampled upon, unable to find a complete piece.

In the chaos of their self-destruction, a formidable force emerged.

They resembled a white tsunami, surging towards the defensive line at an alarming speed, instilling fear in anyone who witnessed it.

With limited distance left for a second charge, the time was ripe.

Narrowing his eyes, Jichen raised his arm and shouted, “All ranged units, open fire!”

The newly added Murloc Rangers wasted no time, crouching down and using their muscles as bowstrings, and their bone spines as arrows.

Their back muscles squirmed rapidly, forcefully propelling the sharp bone spines outward.

Splat!

Dozens of bone spines shot through the air like projectiles, leaving behind colorful streaks before descending with a resounding impact.

Covering an area of marshland in front of the defensive line, it was akin to a tempest, overwhelming the skeletons.

These bone spines, sharper than knives and faster than the chilling wind, pierced through skulls, pinning bodies down, and extinguishing the essence of countless souls.

However, there was more to come.

The Murloc Rangers extended another wave of bone spines from their backs.

Another round of projectiles was unleashed.

The remaining skeletons, struggling to rise after evading vital areas, were once again met with the forceful impact of the bone spines, rendering them motionless.

And then, another round was unleashed.

The horde of skeletons suffered another devastating blow.

Three successive waves of bone spines were launched.

Over a thousand bone spines were now embedded in the mass of skeletons, the marshland, and even submerged in the seawater, creating a surreal and haunting scene.

The densely packed bone spikes covered the enemy group like cluster bombs.

If the enemies were not skeletons but flesh and blood creatures, it would have become a living hell.

Ji Chen’s eyes were filled with surprise.

He did not expect that these Murloc Rangers, who were only Tier 2 5-star, could actually display such shocking lethality under such circumstances.

This wave of attacks had killed at least four to five hundred skeleton monsters!

“Ding- Murloc Rangers have entered a weakened state and are temporarily unable to move.”

After three successive rounds of projectile launches, the Murloc Rangers appeared depleted, showing signs of exhaustion. However, their performance far exceeded Jichen’s expectations. Today’s main event was not about them but the enhanced Sea Pixies.

The skeletons, having recovered their mobility, charged once again after breaking free from the quagmire. Yet, they were met with a barrage of spell arrows brimming with explosive energy.

Boom!

The water arrows pierced through their bodies, detonating upon impact in dense clusters. The surging energy tore their bodies apart, leaving no white skeletons, black skeletons, or skeleton hounds unscathed.

Spell damage was simply ruthless!

Under the same tier and level, the offensive capabilities of spellcasting units surpassed their physical counterparts by several times, or even tenfold!

Once the Sea Pixies had launched three consecutive rounds of water arrows, Jichen waved his hand to signal them to stop. It was time to conserve their mana.

At this moment, the recovering horde of skeletons finally reached the defensive line. However, due to their repeated disruptions, their speed was sluggish, and their oonce-tight formation became loose and disorganized. contemporary romance

They weakly crashed into the defensive line, unable to unleash the full force of their charge. In contrast, the Naga Warriors and Elite Pirates stood firm like an unyielding fortress.

This was exactly the effect Jichen desired.

A single powerful surge, followed by a decline and eventual exhaustion.

By neutralizing the most intense initial wave of the skeleton horde, the subsequent encounters would become more manageable.

No further warm-up was needed.

The atmosphere of the battle had reached its climax the moment the two sides made contact.

The Naga Warriors let out resounding roars, the friction of tridents tearing through the air, and the wild screams of the pirates.

Each sound reverberated.

The fearless skeletons relentlessly assaulted the defensive line.

What made the undead formidable was their lack of fear and the absence of any concept of life and death. Regardless of the number of enemies or the extent of casualties, their morale remained unwavering at 100 points.

However, Jichen’s army was no pushover.

The absolute rank suppression endowed them with soaring morale and formidable combat prowess. Even though the enemy outnumbered them by dozens to one, not a single soldier showed any signs of fear. They valiantly fought, undeterred by the prospect of death.

Now, it was only through individual strength and effective coordination among the soldiers that they could withstand the onslaught of the skeleton horde!
