Chapter 88

Wounds continuously appeared on their bodies.

The two skeletons were instantly bewildered.

They couldn't even see where Su Ming was!

Maintaining this high-speed movement state, he continuously launched harassment attacks, whittling down their HP.

It could be said he was attacking their greatest weaknesses.

How the hell is one supposed to fight this...

There was absolutely no countermeasure!

The two war-hammer skeletons shared a telepathic link and let out angry roars.

They had no choice but to swing their giant hammers, beginning to attack the surrounding ground blindly in a 360-degree radius.

Since we can't hit you, we'll just hammer away randomly!

We don't believe we can't kill you!

The two skeleton monsters hammered the floor frantically.

Soon, the ice surface shattered into large craters, and water mist scattered and dissipated.

However, Su Ming’s Lingbo Micro-steps were a Diamond-grade movement technique.

Not only was it fast to the extreme, but it was also incredibly graceful.

His footwork was like a ghost.

No matter how dense their attacks were, they couldn't harm a single hair on Su Ming.

They couldn't even touch the hem of his clothes.

Soon, Su Ming had hacked their HP down to less than 10%!

Su Ming was determined to end the battle quickly!

Because his enemies were not just these two skeletons!

In the distance, that most burly Chain-Hammer War General was still watching like a tiger eyeing its prey.

Once caught in a pincer attack by the three monsters, he definitely wouldn't be able to handle it.

Therefore, the tactic he adopted was to use the fastest speed possible to slay these two skeletons.

And then deal with that skeleton War General with his full attention.

The two war-hammer skeletons were furious, their HP having dropped to the freezing point.

A few more attacks, and they would die here.

And so, they became enraged.

They triggered their passive skill.

[Berserk Hammer Technique (After they are injured, their attack power will skyrocket!)]

Now that their HP was extremely low, the power of their hammers was even more terrifying.

Boom!

They smashed down vertically beside them, attacking with full force.

They directly smashed a giant crater over ten meters deep into the ice.

Sharp and keen ice shards shot out, flying in all directions.

If a person were standing here, they would definitely be turned into a sieve by these indiscriminate flying ice cones.

But Su Ming was too agile; he chose to use the Raging Rain Shattering Phoenix Sword to shatter all the ice debris.

At the same time, he mobilized his six swords and killed toward the two war-hammer skeletons!

Puchi!

The blades pierced through their bodies, and each skeleton's skull was solidly impaled by three swords.

Su Ming had imbued all his weapons with holy-attribute enchantment damage!

[Holy Weapon Enchantment], this was the skill he mastered that was most effective against undead-race monsters.

Slaying with the holy attribute could directly ignore their undead resurrection talent.

Sure enough, the two war-hammer skeletons were instantly killed.

They fell to the ground, unable to close their eyes in death.

All undead aura on their bodies dissipated, and they could no longer heal.

Their corpses turned completely into withered remains, falling to the ground and unable to rise again.

[Slayed 3rd-Turn Elite Monster X2]

[Experience Points +34221]

[Cross-Border Kill Extra Bonus +10000 Experience]

[Promoted to Level 27!]

[Obtained 10 Free Attribute Points!]

Su Ming’s level rose once again.

Furthermore, he was only a tiny bit of experience away from promoting to Level 28.

Su Ming estimated that if he killed the final elite monster, he should be able to level up twice in a row, promoting to Level 29!

He first allocated all his attribute points to Mental Power.

He now possessed too many skills.

Every battle required the consumption of a large amount of Mental Power.

So he had to raise it a bit higher.

His Mental Power immediately reached a value of 180.

It could even rival some mages!

This was the benefit of his innate ten-star talent.

Each time he leveled up, he had more attribute points to allocate than others; over time, the gap would only grow larger, allowing him to even fight above his level!

After the two skeletons fell, Su Ming immediately obtained some loot.

[Soul Dust of Elite Undead - Alchemy Material (Gold High-Grade)]

[Tattered War Robe (Platinum Low-Grade)]

Su Ming collected them all; he had no time to sublimate them now.

He locked his gaze onto the most burly undead outside!

It was over three meters tall, and its strength was even greater than these two war-hammer undead!

It was staring at Su Ming with a pair of hollow eyes.

It had witnessed its two subordinates being slain by Su Ming, yet there was still no emotional fluctuation in its eyes.

It slowly stepped forward, and the giant chain-hammer in its hand began to rotate slowly!

Clatter, clatter...

The sound of the chains clashing between each link was like a whisper of death.

Although its armor was tattered, one could still see traces of luxurious refined steel, so it was conceivable that its level was definitely higher than the twin war-hammer undead.

Boom!

The skeleton War General moved!

Swinging the chain-hammer in its hand, it flew toward Su Ming like a meteor!

Su Ming’s eyes showed slight shock!

"So fast!?"

Almost in the blink of an eye, the chain-hammer had smashed in front of Su Ming!

He had originally thought that since this skeleton was so massive, its speed should also be a shortcoming, just like the two war-hammer undead.

But now it seemed that was not the case.

He abruptly mobilized his six swords to block!

Swish, swish, swish, swish!!

The four swords in mid-air flew back, holding off the chain-hammer.

At the same time, his dual swords also crossed to block.

Clang!

A loud noise rang out.

The iron hammer deflected by a few inches.

Su Ming was also able to utilize the Lingbo Micro-steps to avoid this strike.

But Su Ming also felt his arms as if struck by lightning, numb to the extreme!

His eyes were filled with shock.

"This strike just now actually consumed so much of my stamina!"

The stronger the enemy's attack, the more stamina Su Ming had to consume to block it.

He immediately scanned the skeleton's data.

One look, and Su Ming was instantly shocked.

[Dead-Wither War General (Elite Monster)]

[Bloodline: Undead]

[Level: 38]

[Strength: 830]

[Constitution: 502]

[Agility: 208]

[Mental Power: 10]

[Luck: 8]

[Talent: Undying Body]

[Skill: Soul Absorption (It is one of the elite leaders in the undead legion, so it can absorb a portion of the power of nearby dead souls for its own use!)]

[Chain-Hammer Mastery (It has executed countless enemies with chain-hammer weapons and has long since mastered them.)]

[Wind-Like Chain-Hammer (When it uses a chain-hammer weapon, half of its Strength value will be added to its speed!)]

[Life-Chasing Strike (Locks onto an enemy with the chain-hammer and performs an auto-locking high-power attack!)]

[Liberation Sweep (Completely releases the chain of the chain-hammer to perform a 360-degree all-directional sweep, with a range of 67 meters, obliterating all living beings within the line of sight.)]

[Automatic Defense (Its control over the chain-hammer has reached perfection, so it can automatically use the chain-hammer to block enemy attacks, as if doing so at will)]

[...]

This Dead-Wither War General was different from other monsters just by its title!

War General!

The gold content of these two words went without saying.

Just the skills alone, there were several.

Far exceeding ordinary elite monsters.

Especially the [Soul Absorption] skill, which was simply overpowered.

Just a moment ago, Su Ming scanned it and it only had 600 Strength, now it had become over 800.

It must have been the bonus obtained after absorbing the souls of the two war-hammer skeleton corpses.

Su Ming realized that this monster’s combat power definitely exceeded his expectations.

But this only made him more excited!

If he succeeded in killing it, he would be able to obtain even more experience points.

It was not impossible to even reach Level 30 in one go!

Cross-border kills had extra experience point bonuses!

Su Ming felt no fear in his heart, only 100% composure and calmness!

The stronger the enemy, the less his heart would be in chaos.

He directly raised his hand, mobilized his six weapons, and flew to slash.

Swish, swish, swish.

Sword light flickered.

Su Ming fully utilized the Lingbo Micro-steps, fighting around this undead War General and launching harassment attacks.

Currently, he still didn't know what the monster’s weakness was.

His goal in attacking was to probe out its weakness!

However, this skeleton monster’s strength was a bit excessively strong!

It planted its legs on the ice, standing extremely steadily.

Subsequently, it waved its wrists, its burly body surprisingly agile.

The chain-hammer flowed with its arm, actually forming an iron curtain that completely wrapped around its entire body!

Boom...

Boom, boom, boom!

The sound of the iron chains was dense and dull, emitting a sound of breaking through the air.

Su Ming’s six swords, attacking simultaneously with slashes, hacks, stabs, and lifts, were all precisely neutralized by it!

Every blade, once it slashed over, would be knocked away by the iron hammer!

This was its [Automatic Defense] skill!

Capable of automatically blocking all attacks.

It was simply too buggy.

This skill was even more troublesome than its other skills.

Paired with its [Wind-Like Chain-Hammer] skill, it was simply invincible!

[Wind-Like Chain-Hammer (When it uses a chain-hammer weapon, half of its Strength value will be added to its speed!)]

This monster’s Strength attribute reached 830, and half of that added to its speed... was equivalent to 415 points of Agility.

This resulted in its iron hammer swinging speed reaching its peak!

Combined with the automatic defense skill, even with the bonus of Su Ming’s Origin Sword Body, it was difficult to break through its defense for a time!

"Tsk... a bit troublesome."

Su Ming’s eyes were solemn, and a sense of caution arose in his heart.

This monster was very hard to fight!
