Chapter 590

At this moment, the 60 skeletons had already arrived and were closing in from all sides.

The skeleton hero was among them; it clattered out something, and all the nearby skeletons immediately had their bones thicken somewhat.

It must have used some kind of skill.

Thicker bones — probably a defensive-type skill.

But Tang Ruan didn't care.

A red glow lit up at her spear tip: "Spearmen, attention — continuous thrust, charge!"

"Understood!"

In an instant, 20 spearmen leveled their spear tips forward and shot out at high speed.

Over 20 skeletons were sent flying.

Then another 20.

Then another 20.

The skeletons had indeed been strengthened.

They'd been machine-gun-thrust, but didn't die.

They still held on stubbornly.

Qiyue had already led her troops charging out from the flank.

"We rush in now — go all out on damage, hold nothing back!"

"Understood!"

The 20 female blade soldiers immediately broke into a sprint.

Qiyue's beautiful eyes narrowed; a cold gleam lit up on the iron blade in her hand.

Qiyue's arms already became afterimages.

Three bright, clean moon blades shot out.

Then another three, then another three.

In just a few seconds, a full 45 moon blades were unleashed in rapid succession.

The skeletons on the opposite side had no reaction at all.

Or rather, they had no time to react.

Pfft-pfft-pfft-pfft-pfft!

Pfft-pfft-pfft-pfft-pfft!

The moon blades were an extension of Qiyue's attacks.

They struck the skeletons, sending them stumbling.

Great slash marks also appeared on their leather armor.

Fragile skeletons wearing leather armor were still just fragile leather-armored skeletons.

Still just Tier One troops.

They simply couldn't resist the moon blade attacks.

Over a dozen skeletons exploded on the spot.

Boom-boom-boom-boom!

Whoosh-whoosh-whoosh-whoosh!

Those skeletons actually blew apart into fragments.

Zhao Chi roared: "Careful — blade soldiers, raise shields!"

The words had barely fallen when over a hundred bone spikes shot out.

Pfft-pfft-pfft-pfft!

The bone spikes had a wide blast radius; iron shields couldn't fully block them.

Quite a few pierced into the female blade soldiers' leather armor.

Fortunately, they'd raised their shields in time, and they were at some distance from the exploding skeletons, so nothing hit their eyes or other vital spots.

Didn't expect this move.

Zhao Chi shouted: "These skeletons may have been modified — they explode on death and bone spikes burst out, everyone be careful."

Qiyue said: "Understood, we push forward with shields raised — go!"

The female blade soldiers all surged forward.

The iron blades in their hands swung at extreme speed.

With attribute suppression already in play, plus troop-tier suppression, the skeleton soldiers had no power to fight back at all.

Explosions rang out non-stop.

The female soldiers' screams also rose from everywhere.

Every female blade soldier was pierced by bone spikes.

But these were all minor wounds.

Painful or not, it didn't affect the fighting.

They didn't even pull them out — brows furrowed, shields raised, hack hack hack.

Hacking one skeleton after another to pieces.

Gu Qing's healing descended in time, and the female soldiers were instantly fully healed.

Qiyue stared at the skeleton mage ahead: "Still shelling us? Your turn now — die!"

Xiao Rui was woken up by electricity.

He only remembered a flash in the sky, then a current passing through his body.

His mind suddenly became startlingly clear.

The rage from moments ago vanished like smoke.

Then he stared in shock to find that of his 100 skeletons, barely more than 20 remained.

"What… what the hell is going on? Zhao Chi, you bastard…"

A flash lit the sky.

Crack!

Moonlight flared behind him.

Pukaka!

The giant skeleton shattered.

"Watch your defense!" Zhao Chi raised his shield.

Boom!

The giant skeleton also erupted with a massive volley of bone spikes.

Like white fireworks, they shot out in every direction.

But not a single bone spike struck the female soldiers—they vanished mid-air.

Xiao Rui was dead.

The battle was over.

Every soldier on Xiao Rui's side vanished.

Zhao Chi received a system notification:

【Battle ended. You have achieved victory. You may stay in place to interact with the audience, or click to return.】

Zhao Chi didn't choose for the moment.

He suddenly felt the world shift.

The towering city wall that had loomed so high moments ago was now a low half-wall.

The unreachable audience was now right before his eyes.

He could see every spectator's face clearly.

He could hear their voices too.

Many in the audience were applauding.
