Undead Mage: I Have a Skeleton Clone

Chapter 658 - 443: Combat Power Surges, Challenging the Skeleton Lord!

Considering Fang Zhou’s previous devouring of several Skeleton Battle Groups and his infiltration of the Skeleton Castle to hunt Mutated Skeletons, the Skeleton Lord perceived that Fang Zhou was actively hunting them. These five Skeleton Battle Groups were the bait it had thrown out.

As long as Fang Zhou dared to appear and attack a Skeleton Battle Group, the multiple Mutated Skeletons within it could hold him down for a short time. That would be long enough for the nearby Skeleton Lord to quickly arrive and annihilate him!

One had to admit, this trap was very effective against those Mutated Skeletons who lacked high intelligence. However, Fang Zhou was no ordinary Skeleton. Such a simple trap could be seen through at a glance!

The Soul Fire in his eye sockets flickered slightly. After observing the area around the Skeleton Castle, Fang Zhou moved toward the Skeleton Battle Group with the most members.

It was indeed a trap. But when Fang Zhou’s strength was great enough to ignore it, the bait thrown out by the Skeleton Lord simply became a delicacy he could swallow at any time!

Fang Zhou approached without hiding his figure. Soon, this long-waiting Skeleton Battle Group noticed him. Subsequently, under the Skeleton Centurion’s command, the Sea of Skulls, totaling nearly twelve thousand, began to move and swarmed toward Fang Zhou.

And Fang Zhou took a single step forward.

Death Charge!

He instantly closed the distance between himself and the Skeleton Centurion, appearing before the Sea of Skulls. Then, the Corpse Long Spear was raised high and slashed down forcefully.

"Death Tornado!"

BOOM!!!

Amidst the violent rumbling, as several torn Skeletons fell to the ground, large swaths of dark red Light Blades split apart, shooting out in all directions. This slash was not aimed at the Skeleton Centurion. Instead, he had targeted the few Mutated Skeletons beside it.

With Fang Zhou’s current Four-dimensional Attributes, this full-powered spear attack would be unbearable even for a Skeleton Centurion, let alone the Mutated Skeletons. The result was that the dark red Light Blades instantly killed those few Mutated Skeletons. The tiny Light Blades that split from them then continued to slay the nearby normal Skeletons, splitting yet again!

Thus, with just one spear strike, in merely an instant, a sea of blades formed by countless tiny dark red Light Blades surged through the Skeleton Battle Group, spreading endlessly in all directions.

The area around the Skeleton Centurion was cleared. With the Skeleton Centurion and Fang Zhou at the center, all Skeletons within a hundred-meter radius were torn apart, turning into a field of shattered bones. Only the Skeleton Centurion was left standing.

After slaying nearly a hundred Skeletons in one move, Fang Zhou did not pause. He once again took a step, appearing behind the Skeleton Centurion. The Corpse Long Spear in his hand traced a sharp, cold gleam as it struck the Skeleton Centurion’s head.

Deadly Strike!

CRACK!

Driven by his Power Attribute of 100 points, the exceedingly sharp Corpse Long Spear easily shattered the Skeleton Centurion’s skull. Bone fragments flew as the Skeleton Centurion’s body collapsed heavily to the ground.

Having succeeded in one strike, Fang Zhou did not stop. Almost immediately after killing the Skeleton Centurion, the edge of the Corpse Long Spear appeared above another Mutated Skeleton’s head. This Mutated Skeleton didn’t even have time to lift the Giant Shield in its hand before its head was shattered by the Corpse Long Spear, following in the Skeleton Centurion’s footsteps.

With almost all the Mutated Skeletons killed, this Skeleton Battle Group held little value for Fang Zhou. He took another step, transforming into a torrent of Undead Energy. He shot straight from the center of this Sea of Skulls and appeared within another Skeleton Battle Group that had rushed over after hearing the commotion!

Death Charge. As the Displacement Skill mastered by the Corpse Clone, its effects could only be described as overpowered! After being evolved and enhanced from "Heroic Charge" to "Death Charge," the skill’s cost had also transformed from Battle Qi to Death Energy, and its effects were greatly improved.

With more than a dozen Mutated Skeletons slain, the Skeleton Lord, which had been lying in wait, would naturally not remain indifferent. In fact, the moment Fang Zhou appeared in the second Skeleton Battle Group, the Skeleton Lord rushed out of the Skeleton Castle and headed in this direction.

However, its speed was no match for Fang Zhou’s, and it lacked a Divine Skill for movement like Death Charge. When the Skeleton Lord arrived, it could only watch helplessly as Fang Zhou killed the Mutated Skeletons in the second Skeleton Battle Group. He then unleashed another "Death Tornado," letting the dark red Light Blades spread out as he appeared in yet another Skeleton Battle Group.

The first Skeleton Battle Group was slaughtered while the Skeleton Lord was still inside the Skeleton Castle; it could only accept it. The second Skeleton Battle Group was slaughtered before the Skeleton Lord could arrive; it was powerless to help.

But to think that now, with it already on the battlefield, that unknown Undead Creature—one that should have fled in terror at its mere presence—was still brazenly charging into its legion to slaughter its subordinates... this made the Skeleton Lord absolutely furious!

Judging from its Energy Fluctuations, it was merely at Black Iron Great Perfection. An ant! Over its long reign, if it hadn’t devoured a hundred such Black Iron Great Perfection Undead Creatures, it had at least consumed dozens!

Since when did such a lowly Skeleton, one not even qualified to face it directly, dare to slaughter its subordinates in its presence and challenge its authority?

Anger! Fury! Rage!

Yet, no matter how furious it was, the Skeleton Lord, whose speed was far inferior to Fang Zhou’s, could only watch helplessly as the Corpse Clone appeared for a third time in a Skeleton Battle Group and raised the Corpse Long Spear in its hand
