Chapitre 30: Skeleton General

Éditeur: Modlawls123

The 5 Skeleton Cavalrymen were all killed. Two of the Skeleton horses were killed, one was half-crippled, and the remaining two were trapped outside of the shield wall.

The remaining two Skeleton horses were the horses of the 2 Skeleton Cavalrymen that had been blasted off their horses. They were no longer being controlled but still charged at the shield wall due to their natural instincts as Undead.

Zhao Fu did not pay much attention to the 2 Skeleton horses for now. He went over to the half-crippled Skeleton horse and tried to use Taming on it to see if Skeleton horses could be tamed. If he could, he would use the Skeleton horses as warhorses, allowing him to start creating Cavalry.

However, Zhao Fu found that Taming did not work on Undead, which disappointed him greatly. As such, he could only kill the Skeleton horses.

Onwards!

Zhao Fu continued onwards and killed a few more waves of Skeletons. Even though the Skeleton groups now had every major type of military unit, they could not threaten Zhao Fu’s forces. The Skeletons were all killed, and they dropped many pieces of equipment, some Refined Martial Souls, and, on rare occasions, Soldier Souls.

After proceeding for a while, the passage started to widen and they could see some changes. Zhao Fu let out a breath – it seemed that there was an end to this passage.

Suddenly, a blue tongue of fire lit up as a powerful aura swept towards them. Everyone quickly raised their torches and saw a Skeleton General wearing silver armor and holding a double-handed sword coming to life.

Everyone became completely serious.

The Skeleton General slowly stood up and stared at Zhao Fu’s soldiers with the sockets in its head. It gave off an eerie killing intent, causing a chill to spread through the entire passage.

Zhao Fu immediately called out, “Everyone, be careful!”

After standing up, the Skeleton General started to walk towards Zhao Fu’s soldiers. Zhao Fu immediately ordered the Archers to attack.

Swish, swish, swish…

The arrows flew through the air towards the Skeleton General. The Skeleton General continued walking forwards without even a trace of fear, and its sword was completely level. When the arrows were about 1 meter away from its body, it raised the sword in its hands, and a grey aura erupted from the sword. The Skeleton General casually waved the sword…

Bang!

The arrows were all repelled by an invisible force, and none of them were able to even come close to its body.

Zhao Fu drew the Flowing Cloud Bow and used Rock Crushing Arrow. A mystical yellow aura appeared around his arrow, and the arrow shot towards the Skeleton General. However, the Skeleton General merely tilted its head, causing the arrow to narrowly miss. The arrow stabbed into the ground behind the Skeleton General, and the arrow trembled from the force.

After easily dodging Zhao Fu’s arrow, the Skeleton General’s figure suddenly flashed as it appeared before the shield wall, and it quickly raised its sword before slashing at the shieldwall.

Clang!

The sword hit the massive shields, causing an ear-piercing sound and creating many sparks. The five Goblin Warriors were sent stumbling back 4 or 5 meters, and a deep cut appeared on their shields.

Zhao Fu and Bai Qi’s expressions became grim when they saw just how powerful the Skeleton General was. Li Wen had never seen such a powerful Skeleton before, and his face became incredibly pale. Following this, Zhao Fu could only loudly call out:

“Fire!”

Arrows continuously shot towards the Skeleton General, but the Skeleton General’s body turned into a blur, easily dodging all of the arrows and appearing elsewhere.

Zhao Fu immediately yelled, “Wind Blade!”

Liu Mei didn’t dare to be careless, and she put all of her focus into using Wind Blade, causing an azure crescent to shoot towards the Skeleton General.

The Skeleton General pivoted, and the Wind Blade flew past the Skeleton General without damaging it at all.

Following this, Zhao Fu called out, “Fireball!”

Li Wen silently bit his tongue, forcing himself to remain calm. This was the first time Zhao Fu had taken him out to fight, and he had also given him a precious elemental orb and a Refined Martial Soul. Since Zhao Fu treated him so well, how could he let him down?

After joining the Great Qin Village, Li Wen told himself that he could not allow himself to become an ordinary villager; in the future, he wanted to be a famed general for Great Qin.

When Li Wen first saw the Skeleton General, his face had been extremely pale. However, he had quickly calmed down and immediately released a fireball upon hearing the order.

The fireball flew towards the Skeleton General from the front, and it appeared just as the Skeleton General had pivoted to dodge the Wind Blade, making it difficult for the Skeleton General to dodge the fireball. However, the Skeleton General was not worried at all, and it slashed the fireball.

Bang!

The fireball exploded, turning into tiny sparks.

However, two blood-colored fireballs immediately came from its left and right, landing on the Skeleton General’s body. Zhao Fu and Old Logue had acted together while the Skeleton General had been distracted by Li Wen.

Bang!

A massive explosion sounded out as the two blood-colored fireballs simultaneously exploded, but the blast did not send the Skeleton General flying. It was only forced back a few steps and only looked slightly worse for wear.

“Fire!” Zhao Fu ordered as the Archers raised their bows, once again shooting arrows at the Skeleton General. However, the Skeleton General once again easily deflected them with its sword.

Chi!

Zhao Fu found an opening and landed an arrow on the Skeleton General’s abdomen. The arrow pierced through its armor, hitting the Skeleton General’s lumbar vertebrae and causing it to take a slight step back.

The Skeleton General looked towards Zhao Fu ominously and released a cold killing intent. Suddenly, its body turned into a black blur as it rushed towards Zhao Fu.

Clang!

A figure charged over from Zhao Fu’s side, blocking the Skeleton General. When the two swords clashed together, sparks flew into the air. The figure was Bai Qi, and he had been preparing this entire time.

The Skeleton General roared and pressed down on Bai Qi with its sword. Bai Qi’s expression remained calm – his current strength was below that of the Skeleton General’s, but he would not show any weakness. He gritted his teeth and used all of his strength to push back at the Skeleton General.

“Retreat!” Zhao Fu ordered. Bai Qi quickly retreated without hesitation – he was completely obedient to Zhao Fu’s orders. As soon as Bai Qi retreated, the 10 Goblin Warriors raised their shields and surrounded the Skeleton General.

The Skeleton General paused in surprise, and it immediately swung its sword to escape from the encirclement.

At this moment, four fireballs and one Wind Blade landed on the Skeleton General – Zhao Fu, Li Wen, Old Logue, and Liu Mei had simultaneously acted.

Bang!

The magic skills exploded together, and Old Logue and Zhao Fu’s blood-colored fireballs were the most destructive. Even the Goblin Warriors surrounding the Skeleton General were all forced back by 1 step by the explosion.

The Skeleton General in the center took quite a lot of damage, and it was in quite a pitiful state as it knelt on one knee on the ground. It stabbed its sword into the ground, preparing to stand up.

The Goblin Warriors suddenly created a gap in the encirclement as arrows flew towards the Skeleton General.

“Roar!!!!!”

After being hit continuously, the Skeleton General loudly roared, vigorously slashing everything around it with its sword. The sword lightly hummed as 8 rays of grey sword qi slashed out.

Boom!!!!

A massive explosion sounded out. The 8 rays of sword qi tore through the air, forming a storm of sword qi. Not only had the arrows been stopped, but three of the Goblin Warriors were also sent flying, and many of their shields had 7 centimeter deep cuts.

After using its ultimate skill, the Skeleton General looked exhausted, not moving from its position. At this moment, an arrow pierced into the Skeleton General’s head, passing through it cleanly. The blue tongue of fire within the Skeleton General’s head flickered before being extinguished, and the Skeleton General collapsed into a pile of bones. Only then did Zhao Fu put down his bow, a cold look in his eye.


Chapitre 31: Undead

Éditeur: Modlawls123

After the Skeleton General died, it dropped 5 items. Zhao Fu slowly walked over and picked up its double-handed sword. Normal Skeletons already had good items, so what would the Skeleton General’s weapon be like?

[Star Slashing Sword]: Grade: Gold, Stats: Strength +8, Constitution +4, Agility +2, Description: A Half-Legendary grade weapon that has become rusty due to the passage of time, becoming an ordinary Gold grade weapon.

Zhao Fu was not let down – it was actually a Gold grade weapon. Zhao Fu handed the Star Slashing Sword to Bai Qi.

Not only did a hint of joy appear on Bai Qi’s cold and handsome face, but he also cupped his hands respectfully as he said, “Thank you, Your Majesty!”

Zhao Fu nodded and looked over at the Skeleton General’s armor.

[White Soldier Armor]: Grade: Silver, Stats: Strength +2, Constitution +4, Description: An exquisite Gold grade armor that has become rusty due to the passage of time, becoming an ordinary Silver grade armor.

Zhao Fu decided to give the armor to Bai Qi as well. Now that Bai Qi had suddenly received 2 pieces of powerful equipment, his stats were given a big boost, increasing his strength. After all, each time one increased a Step in cultivation, all of their stats would only increase by one, while the Star Slashing Sword gave the user 8 points of Strength.

Zhao Fu continued looking through the items. There was something that looked like a Soldier Soul, and it seemed to have the figure of a General within it.

[General Soul]: Description: A powerful soul left behind by a general that can be fused into a City Heart, becoming a guardian spirit. It can also be fused into a weapon to strengthen it (Note: 10 General Souls can fuse into a General Armament).

It seemed that a single General Soul was worth 10 Soldier Souls – not bad! Zhao Fu felt quite happy because he was one big step closer to obtaining a General Armament. Who knew what sort of effects a General Armament would have?

The fourth item was a grey-white, smooth, rectangular stone.

[Skeleton General – Profession Change Stone]: Description: Allows a soldier to change his or her profession to Skeleton General. Can be used by living people but will have side-effects.

Zhao Fu felt quite uneasy about this. Normally, one would only be able to change profession to General after his or her Village became a Town. Normal grade Towns could only have one General, Blue grade Towns could have two Generals, and Legendary grade Towns could have five Generals.

[General]: C- grade Military. Description: A General that can lead soldiers. Effect: Can hold 2 different military professions.

A General was a C- grade Military unit because he or she could choose 2 military professions and receive the stat bonuses of both professions. There were no limits on the professions, so one could choose two F grade professions or even two SSS grade professions.

As such, a General profession was quite valuable. However, the Skeleton General Profession Change Stone had side-effects, and it might even change the one who used it into a Skeleton.

Zhao Fu considered changing his profession to Skeleton General because he did not care about his looks. Even if he became a Skeleton, he would get used to it. However, when Zhao Fu tried to use it, he was notified by a system announcement that Lords could not change their profession to General.

In the end, Zhao Fu told Bai Qi and the others about the Profession Change Stone. Bai Qi was already a General, so Zhao Fu looked to Liu Mei – she was S grade and had good potential.

Facing Zhao Fu’s gaze, Liu Mei looked incredibly unwilling. However, if Zhao Fu ordered her to use it, she would not be able to refuse. As such, Liu Mei thought for a moment before going over to Zhao Fu, hugging his arm, and rubbing her large chest against him as she said coyly, “Your Majesty! Look how pretty I am; you can use me as a bed-warmer.”

Liu Mei knew that Zhao Fu was not very interested in her and would not lay his hands on her, so she was able to act so daringly.

When everyone saw her acting so coyly, everybody felt a disgusted chill – every single one of them knew how ferocious and savage she was deep down.

Zhao Fu threw away the idea of getting Liu Mei to use the Profession Change Stone. It wasn’t because he was moved by her actions but because he didn’t want to force his subordinates to do things that they didn’t want to do.

Just as Zhao Fu was about to put the Profession Change Stone away, Li Wen, who had been in deep thought this entire time, suddenly said, “Your Majesty! Let me use it.”

Zhao Fu looked over in surprise and reminded him, “There will be side-effects, and you might even turn into a Skeleton.”

Li Wen had a serious look as he earnestly nodded and replied, “I know, Your Majesty, but this subordinate’s grade is limited and cannot compare to General Bai Qi’s. In the future, I might not be able to help Your Majesty much, so I want to use the Profession Change Stone.”

When Zhao Fu saw how sincere Li Wen looked, he sighed and handed the Profession Change Stone to Li Wen.

Li Wen took the Profession Change Stone and chose to use it. A grey aura came out from the Profession Change Stone and swept towards Li Wen’s body. Li Wen’s entire body was enwrapped by the grey aura, but the grey aura disappeared after a while.

There were some obvious changes to Li Wen’s body: he was much skinnier than before, and his skin lost its rosy glow, making him look incredibly pale. His pupils also became a grey-white color. Apart from those, however, there was not much change. After recovering for a few moments, he respectfully saluted Zhao Fu.

Zhao Fu let out a sigh of relief – it seemed that the side-effects were not too great. He nodded and looked at Li Wen’s stats.

Name: Li Wen

Grade: A

Title: None

Profession: Skeleton General

Achievement Points: Commoner (0/200)

Race: Human (Half Undead)

Age: 22 (100)

Loyalty: 90

Stats: Strength: 9, Intelligence: 7, Constitution: 8, Agility: 6

Special Power: [Weak – Undead’s Power]

Cultivation: Stage 0-1

Cultivation Technique: Great Qin Mantra

Skills: Fireball, Basic Sword Technique, Rock Crushing Arrow…

Equipment: Plate Armor, Iron Sword…

There were 2 changes to Li Wen’s stats: the first was his race, which was now Half Undead, and the second was that he gained the Undead’s Power.

The Undead’s Power was like Zhao Fu’s Demon’s Power, and it belonged to non-human powers. After Zhao Fu obtained the Demon’s Power, not only did he receive stat increases, but the normal Fireballs he cast also had traces of blood-color in them and were more powerful than normal Fireballs.

Following this, Zhao Fu looked at the last item that the Skeleton General had dropped. It was a bronze command medallion with traces of rust on it, and it had an icy feel to it.

[Command Seal – Undead]: Description: A command seal that has been contaminated by Undead aura for a long period of time. Allows one to command 10 normal Skeleton soldiers, and the Skeleton soldiers can be stored within the command seal.

A smile appeared on Zhao Fu’s face. Even though it could only allow him to command 10 normal Skeletons, that was already quite good. As such, Zhao Fu decided to use it on some Skeleton Cavalry.

After looking at the Goblin Warriors’ shields, he decided that they could continue for a bit longer. They would go back after conquering 10 Skeleton Cavalrymen.

Onwards!

The passage gradually became wider, and tongues of blue fire lit up ahead of them. This time, there were 14 Skeletons, and 4 of them were Skeleton Cavalrymen.
