Otherworldly Skeleton Evolution

Putting away the scroll, Jiang Cheng waved to A Silly Cutie in the distance.

A Silly Cutie walked out from the snow robe, somewhat emotional, and quickly picked up the equipment on the ground.

Then, she gleefully equipped the three high-quality level 25 purple gear pieces.

Instantly, her attributes soared once again.

Her spell attack reached a staggering 780!

HP reached 2400!

Defense reached 115!

Magic defense even reached 180!

Remember, she was a mage…

Yet her HP and magic defense surpassed a knight of the same level!

These people were truly wealth-delivery boys…

“Cutie, this is a Spirit Soul Stone, a token for transferring to a lifestyle profession. Our magic potion consumption is a bit high now, and even large magic potions only restore 500 mana, which is not enough at all.”

“You can become an Alchemist and learn to make potions. We have plenty of gold anyway.”

“Eh… but I only have 200 gold left?” A Silly Cutie was a bit dumbfounded.

“It’s okay, if we run out of gold, just withdraw from the guild funds.” Jiang Cheng said nonchalantly.

In fact, he didn’t have much gold left either, with a balance of only 121 gold, 38 silver, and 98 copper.

“But withdrawing guild funds requires owning a territory.”

Jiang Cheng patted her fragrant shoulder.

“I know. I’ll help you attack the territory. I’m not asking you to withdraw now. For now, fuse my skeletons first, then let’s go to Luoyun City to scout and set up a stall to sell some equipment.”

“Oh… okay.” A Silly Cutie nodded obediently.

She began fusing skeletons for Jiang Cheng.

“First, let’s fuse an absolute tank. I’ll give you a plan.”

Jiang Cheng pondered for a moment.

“What’s the maximum number you can fuse simultaneously now?”

“It’s 36 now.”

“36? You upgraded your Fusion Art?”

Jiang Cheng glanced at A Silly Cutie in surprise, feeling a hint of being touched in his heart.

Perhaps A Silly Cutie didn’t like expressing herself, or was shy to do so, but everything she did was for his sake.

“Good. Use a skeleton knight with regeneration, meditation, protection, and shield defense as the main template. Fuse it with a brawler skeleton with counter shock, an assassin skeleton with rebound, a frost wolf skeleton with counter armor, the Blood Hell Frenzied Demon Guard, and 30 troll skeletons in a defensive direction.”

Upon learning that A Silly Cutie had evolved her Death Fusion Art to legendary rank, excitement welled up in Jiang Cheng.

While fusion success still relied on luck, fusing a large quantity significantly increased the odds of creating an ultra-rare skeleton!

At first, they could only fuse 6 together, but now fusing 36 skeletons at once, who knew what would come out.

Jiang Cheng suddenly felt a bit of anticipation.

In his previous life, he had a grudge against the Temple and built the Demon Palace Guild to oppose them.

Although he ultimately failed due to insufficient players, the grudge was set.

He never thought that after being reborn in the game world, he would still hold a grudge against the Temple.

Naturally, he understood all too well…

Given the Temple’s overbearing nature, even if he peacefully played as a skeleton, the moment he accidentally obstructed their path forward…

The Temple’s blade would inevitably fall upon him.

Initially, he had no intention of establishing a guild and competing with anyone for hegemony.

His goal was simply to keep evolving and break free from his skeleton identity.

But now, he had already built a city and made an enemy of the Temple.

Naturally, he should make Cutie Shakes the World become a truly top guild!

Even if this guild… had an embarrassing… guild name.

It was just that… given his current strength…

When facing the behemoth that was the Temple, with 108 sub-guilds, twelve god-rank vice leaders, and over ten million players…

He was still far from being a worthy opponent.

He was still too weak.

He had just experimented and found that without using Troll Transformation and relying solely on magic resistance, he would not be able to withstand the full-force bombardment of a mage team.

It was five hundred people now, but if it became a thousand, ten thousand, or a hundred thousand later, he might have great difficulty blocking them!

Fusing an absolute tank with growth potential became necessary.

“It’s done, Skeleton Big Brother.” A Silly Cutie said somewhat weakly.

“It’s done?” Jiang Cheng looked at the thirty-meter-tall armored knight in front of him, holding a giant silver-white shield and riding a ferocious beast, his heart stirred.

“Beast-Taming Giant Shield Knight?”
