Chapter 589

Restricting the iron-armor and iron-shield Tang Ruan squad?

Twenty arrows came flying.

They landed weakly on the iron armor and iron shields, emitting a listless clinking and clanging.

Like raindrops, utterly useless.

But those ten skeleton mages were somewhat threatening.

Five fireballs and five iceballs rushed in.

Whoooosh~

Whoooosh~

Bombarding Tang Ruan and the female spearmen.

The fireballs struck the shields and instantly exploded into flames.

But they only lasted a few seconds before dying out.

After the iceballs hit, the iron armor immediately became freezing cold, and frost spread across an area.

The female soldiers shivered at the chill.

Their movement speed also seemed somewhat affected.

But Gu Qing immediately waved her hand.

The Cleansing Body Technique, cool yet warm, removed all the burning effect of the fireballs and the freezing effect of the iceballs.

Tang Ruan frowned, feeling the warmth on her shield.

"This weak? I remember fire-element spiritual techniques being very strong—why did the shield only get warm?"

In her impression, flames were the kind Zhao Ji and Li Yan used.

Giant fireballs and streams of fire.

That time it really burned satisfyingly.

But this time?

Tang Ruan was somewhat puzzled, but it didn't matter: "That's enough—right now, everyone, charge!"

"Yes!"

The female soldiers no longer held back their speed.

They swung their long legs and sprinted out at full strength.

"Holy shit, why are they so fast? Spread out our formation too!"

Xiao Rui, inside the large skeleton, emitted sounds of bones colliding and grinding against each other.

But the skeletons all understood.

The formation instantly spread out.

There was a momentum of surrounding the female soldiers.

Only twenty meters remained between the two sides.

The large skeleton controlled by Xiao Rui began to emit a fluorescent glow.

Its huge mouth opened wide.

It let out an extremely piercing shriek:

"Kraaa—"

Like a sharp pen tip scraping a blackboard.

But the volume was enormous.

All the female soldiers frowned, finding the sound very unpleasant.

But there were no other effects.

Gu Qing held the Cleansing Body Technique ready, about to release it, but looked left and right—there was no effect at all.

A noise attack?

That's way too weak.

"Gu Qing... help me dispel it."

Zhao Chi's voice came from behind.

Gu Qing turned back in astonishment.

She saw Zhao Chi with his brows tightly furrowed, his body's speed also slowing down.

Hesitant and wavering, as if afraid of something.

Gu Qing suddenly recalled that the sound just now seemed familiar—it was the same kind of shriek from not long ago when fighting those wraiths.

It seemed to make people feel fear.

Without thinking further, Gu Qing immediately spread her palm open.

Warm light surrounded Zhao Chi, and Zhao Chi let out a breath of relief.

"That's a Wraith Scream—Xiao Rui actually knows this skill, not bad!"

Gu Qing nodded: "Don't be afraid, my lord, I'm right beside you."

Zhao Chi smiled: "I'm not afraid, it's just that I can't resist the spiritual technique's effect."

The Wraith Scream works on ordinary people, or most creatures.

But it's useless against these fearless women.

Xiao Rui cursed in shock: "What... what the hell is going on? Why aren't these women afraid? Do they have no hearts or lungs?"

"Kraaa—"

Another extremely piercing shriek.

"So annoying, stop yelling!"

Tang Ruan's eyes widened, her pupils turning purple.

Three thick beams of purple light flashed, charging into the skeleton horde.

That big skeleton and the sixty skeletons around it were all firmly drawn to her.

Xiao Rui snarled, "Bitch, you dare call me annoying? What the hell do you think you are? I'll chop you to death!"

Tang Ruan couldn't understand his words, only hearing a series of clacking sounds.

But the greatsword in the big skeleton's hand was already raised.

Tang Ruan snorted coldly and raised her shield to take the hit head-on.

Boom!

A tremendous screech of metal on metal.

Even more grating on the ears than the wraith's shriek just now.

Tang Ruan's feet were driven five centimeters into the dirt.

She felt sharp pain in her arms and wrists.

It seemed that after Xiao Rui piloted that big skeleton, the buff it provided was very high, the attack power more than enough.

It could deal damage through shields and armor.

But…

It didn't feel bad at all.

Tang Ruan laughed out loud: "Not bad, not bad, this is the way it should be! But it's still not enough, come again!"

Xiao Rui was completely dumbfounded.

That slash just now had used a battle technique — even a giant bear could be cut clean in two.

But this little woman in front of him…

What the hell is going on?

Not afraid of my screech, and not afraid of my blade either?

Gu Qing's healing technique had already descended.

"Tang Ruan, your words right now work even better than the Provoke Technique."

Tang Ruan's body was fully restored.

"Hehe, thanks, Sister Gu."

"Thanks? I'll make you thank me, you bastard!"

"Clack————"

Tang Ruan sighed: "Useless again, and still yelling all the time?"
