Chapter 243 - 1641 have 10 more skeletons like this_3
The refreshed system prompt made Dean McKenzie, who was inspecting the attributes of the Skeleton Giant Warrior, furrow his brows deeply.
Meanwhile, a few minutes earlier, in a forest more than fifty kilometers away from the Giant Serpent Tribe.
After receiving orders from Dean McKenzie, Old Eight, under the guidance of a diminutive old man from the Giant Serpent Tribe, arrived within the forest in about half an hour.
“This is it, chief and the others encountered the ambush here!”
Just as the diminutive old man was speaking, Old Eight saw the obvious signs of the battles that had taken place in the forest and quickly moved closer to inspect.
Old Eight had just approached when the old man behind him suddenly changed his expression dramatically, grabbing a scroll from his chest and casting it onto Old Eight.
At the same time, several beams of bright light suddenly erupted around them, illuminating the forest like it was daytime.
Whether it was the scroll cast onto Old Eight or the white light that erupted around them, their goal was singular – to prevent Old Eight from becoming invisible.
From their actions, it was clear they were somewhat prepared for this day.
But sometimes, preparation isn’t enough. Strength is also required!
Their preparations seemed insufficient to restrain a perfect-quality assassin.
Especially one whose skills are of an enhanced version.
While they were busy making their move, they noticed that Old Eight had disappeared.
Someone in the forest whispered, “He’s stealthed. Be careful of a sneak attack!”
No sooner had the voice finished speaking when a figure dropped from the tree above.
Then another, and another, and another!
With his eight-level Strong Stealth skill reducing the cooldown to about a minute, Old Eight wielded it masterfully, staying invisible almost continuously, striking once every minute, and each strike guaranteed fatal.
Like an incarnation of the Grim Reaper lurking in the darkness.
Hence, a great deal of pressure was exerted on everyone around him, especially the short old man who brought Old Eight here, who was now sweating profusely.
Deep in the forest, four burly figures watched the scene unfold.
Seeing his men dying one by one, the leader of the group could not help but say, “We can’t let this go on. If we’re not careful, this little rat might get away, Victor!”
“Leave it to me!”
A deep voice echoed as the most robust figure among the group sprang out, leaping towards Old Eight.
In the middle of the jump, the barbarian, Victor, roared towards Old Eight, “Come at me!”
Simultaneously, the Six-turn Warrior turned Great Martial Master, of Barbarian class, activated his Forced Taunt Roar!
This skill landed right on Old Eight’s weak point as Old Eight could not withstand the taunt and was pulled directly towards him, revealing his hidden state.
Seeing Old Eight in his unstealthed state, a vicious and brutal expression surfaced on Victor’s face.
“You killed so many of our warriors, now die for me!”
As he roared, Victor descended like a mountain, unleashing the level five skill ‘Shock Crush Attack’ of the Great Martial Master, which landed right on Old Eight!
“Boom!”
The impact of the strike turned the surrounding ten meters of forest into ruins, creating a big pit a few meters deep, with explosion debris and dust scattering all over the place.
Seeing this spectacle, those three back in the forest all smiled cruelly and delightedly, except for the leader, whose facial expression changed.
“That’s not good; it’s not dead, be careful!”
Almost at the same time on Victor’s side, he noticed something, his Shock Crush failed to crush the skeleton.
Not only that, but the opponent also broke free from the taunt state right after being hit and charged at him.
In a blink of an eye, Old Eight circled to Victor’s back, his dagger aimed at his neck.
To this, Victor felt disdainful.
He raised both his arms, muscles bulging all over his body, turning him silver. The defense of the beast hide equipment he was wearing also activated.
Within a split second, Victor increased his base defense to 2.8 million, with energy defense reaching near io million.
Victor didn’t think that a mere Level Five Assassin could breach his defense.
Even if his defense was broken, Victor was not afraid. After all, how much attack power could a Level Five Assassin have after breaking his defense?
There was surely no chance that his head could be chopped off, right?
Then!
“Splash!”
A muffled sound resonated as Old Eight’s Ghost Blade cut through, completely ignoring Victor’s 10 million energy defense and the 2.8 million base defense. With a casual flick of his wrist, the blade cut down Victor’s soul.
As Victor’s soul was chopped down with a single cut, the head of this Six-turn Warrior also fell to the ground.
This all happened so fast.
Within a moment, Victor failed to crush Old Eight, and his head was chopped off.
The speed was so swift that the remaining three had no time to intervene.
The burly man who led the three-man team and was only a few dozen meters away from them witnessed his trusted aide being killed, and his killing intent could no longer be suppressed!
“Die for me!”
With a roar, the barbarian charged forward, instantly appearing before Old Eight, and violently smashed his Wolf Tooth Club down.
Old Eight was instantly shattered into pieces.
Watching as he smashed Old Eight to pieces, the man’s rage had not subsided as he continued to strike, pulverizing Old Eight’s body until it merged with the ground. Only then did the attack stop. He turned his head and glared viciously at the trembling old man of the Giant Serpent tribe..
