Otherworldly Skeleton Evolution

Chapter 271 - Master Only Wants Your Corpses



“Demon Dragon, seal the city gate. Don’t let a single one escape.”

Jiang Cheng issued an order to the Demon Dragon who was watching the commotion.

The Demon Dragon instantly understood. With a swish of its black tail, it flung many Purple Fiend soldiers into the sky, making them fall like raindrops.

Following that, its body soared into the sky.

Then, descending from the heavens, it landed in front of the city gate of Purple Fiend Castle, blocking the path of all the Purple Fiend soldiers.

Although the area in front of the city gate had been reduced to ruins by the Demon Dragon, its massive body coiled at the entrance, forming a natural barrier.

Moreover, with the Demon Dragon’s defense as high as 4004 points, the Purple Fiend soldiers trying to escape simply couldn’t break through its defense and could only forcibly lose HP.

As for Jiang Cheng, he wasn’t idle either.

After gulping down a few large mana potions, he leisurely bombarded the castle.

Each time Hell Firewall exploded, a patch of bone ashes appeared beneath the castle.

“Little Cutie, when dealing with monsters, don’t have a fixated mindset. If utilized properly, sometimes, monsters with intelligence can be easier to kill than those without.”

Jiang Cheng explained to A Silly Cutie while casually hurling Hell Firewalls.

“Monsters without intelligence have no sense of fear. When we kill them, we can formulate targeted killing plans based on their body size, habits, and the momentum of their bodies.”

“For example, for monsters that can’t jump, we can take advantage of high ground and use ranged attacks to achieve injury-free kills.”

“When there’s no high ground, consider climbing trees or finding terrain that can be used for positioning.”

“If there’s no suitable terrain, build such obstacles yourself. You can still achieve injury-free kills.”

Jiang Cheng swung his staff down again. “As for intelligent monsters, you can exploit their fear to completely prevent them from exerting their strength.”

“Just like now, among them, there are still quite a few archers. If they focused fire for a few rounds, I couldn’t be so leisurely. But they’re just too afraid of my flames, resulting in no effective counterattack.”

“In simple terms, for non-intelligent monsters, you can target them based on skills, body size, and habits. For intelligent monsters, target their psychology.”

“Understood?”

A Silly Cutie nodded and smiled. “Mm, I got it. Skeleton Big Brother, I’ll remember every word you say in my mind.”

Jiang Cheng looked at her with appreciation.

“Actually, the greatest strength of the gods lies in their understanding of the rules of this world. Only by truly comprehending the essence of this world can you better utilize its rules and create something of your own.”

“You might not understand now, but you will in the future.”

“Then Skeleton Big Brother, how do you understand this world?”

A Silly Cutie suddenly stared at Jiang Cheng with curiosity.

“Me?” Hearing this, Jiang Cheng pondered for a moment, thinking of the past and present.

He slowly uttered a phrase.

“Everything is possible.”

“Huh…” A Silly Cutie was slightly startled.

Because these words were too general and not easy to understand.

“Skeleton Big Brother, you’re so amazing. Is there anything you’re afraid of?”

“Things I’m afraid of?” Jiang Cheng shook his head and smiled noncommittally. “Everyone has things they fear. Actually, I’m no exception.”

“I can’t believe Skeleton Big Brother also has things he’s afraid of! Then what are you most afraid of?”

A Silly Cutie stared at Jiang Cheng with great curiosity.

Ever since Jiang Cheng appeared in her world, he had always swept through everything with an invincible stance.

Any matter in front of him would be shattered by his absolute strength.

In her mind, Jiang Cheng should be an invincible war god.

Would an invincible war god also have things he feared?

“Attachments.”

Jiang Cheng slowly uttered a single word, not elaborating further.

He just kept releasing Hell Firewalls at Purple Fiend Castle.

Seeing that he seemed slightly lost, A Silly Cutie didn’t dare to ask further.

But she felt a bit pleased in her heart. “Attachments, is he referring to me?”

“What level are you at now?”

“35!” A Silly Cutie snapped out of her secret joy and glanced at her level. She was instantly overjoyed. “Wow, leveling up like this is too fast, right?”

In just a few minutes, she had gained 1.8 million EXP, which felt like a dream.

After level 30, each level required an additional 100,000 EXP on top of the base 3 million EXP.

For example, level 35 required 3.5 million EXP, and level 36 required 3.6 million EXP.

If other players relied on killing wild monsters to level up, it would take at least 3 days of non-stop monster hunting to gain one level.

Moreover, all of this was based on the premise that they had sufficient strength and efficiency to kill wild monsters of their current level.

Among these factors, there were also risks of having monsters stolen, being surrounded and killed, as well as issues like insufficient potions, equipment repair costs, and long travel distances.

If all these factors were taken into account, it would take ordinary players at least a week to gain one level after level 30.

But now, she only used 3 minutes to gain 1.8 million EXP, equivalent to half a level in 3 minutes.

In 6 minutes, she could gain a full level!

It was too terrifying.

The time she spent in 6 minutes was equivalent to a week’s effort for others.

“Looks like I can become number one in the world again.”

A Silly Cutie was quite happy.

“Still want to run!”

Amidst the chaos, Yin Xue saw Green Fiend fleeing in panic and felt displeased.

This waste was just mocking him earlier. How could he let him escape now?

“Blood Fiend Specter Hand!”

A blood-colored light gathered into a blood-colored palm, grasping Green Fiend’s entire body and lifting him back.

*Thud!* Green Fiend was thrown in front of Yin Xue by the blood-colored palm, heavily smashing into the ground.

“Blood Raven, Black Fiend, take him down for me!”

Green Fiend’s expression changed drastically upon being suddenly caught.

He never expected this damned Blood Fiend to have such backing!

Seeing that black skeleton constantly raising his staff on top of the castle, Green Fiend fell into despair.

Surrounding him were panicked Purple Fiend soldiers, and the ground was covered with deadly firewalls.

Stepping on them, it was as if even his soul was being burned by these firewalls, his life constantly draining away. He simply couldn’t withstand it.

These firewalls left no grass alive wherever they passed!

With no other choice, Green Fiend could only kneel on the ground and start begging for mercy. “Grand Commander, spare my life!”

“Spare your life? Hmph, sorry, you’re still of use to Master. Can’t spare you!”

“What?!”

Green Fiend was dumbfounded. “Grand Commander, what do you mean? Didn’t you say I’m useful to Master? Then why do you still want to kill me? Could it be that you’re not afraid Master will blame you and punish you for your crime?”

“Oh? You little bastard, you sure know how to go with the flow. Already calling him Master?”

A hint of disdain flashed in Yin Xue’s eye sockets. He raised his sword and slashed at Green Fiend.

“Green Fiend, you simply don’t understand. Master only wants your corpses.”

“I hope when you wake up again, you’ll still remember me. Be on your way.”

*Splat…*

The Mercury Sword slashed on top of Green Fiend’s head, sparking flames and causing him great pain.

But, to Yin Xue’s embarrassment, Green Fiend didn’t die.

He didn’t even suffer much damage…

“Damn it, I forgot. My strength has greatly decreased now.”

“Blood Raven, Black Fiend, let’s take him on together!”
