Bab 66: Skillful Block

"It's not dead? But how?"

Everybody saw how powerful that direct spike attack was. It basically grounded Little Skeleton to particles. It was commonly believed that a skeleton still needed most of its bones intact to be resurrected.

Little Skeleton did not give them any more time to wonder. After unleashing another ferocious howl, it lunged at the Magical Corpse Beast, blade raised, while red sigils like blood veins coursed through its bones.

This was the bloodline power of a Skeleton King.

The Magical Corpse Beast felt threatened by Little Skeleton's display. It roared back and hastily shot out more bone spikes to stop Little Skeleton from approaching. But Little Skeleton was just too agile at the moment. It skillfully evaded all the attacks by either jumping or using its blade to parry.

Rarrrw!!

Once again, the Magical Corpse Beast began drawing dark pulses of energy to channel another Spirit Shock.
