Her face pale, her previous jovial self was gone.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>She was only a Level 10 Archer.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Being an archer had always given her pride. As long as she did not let her enemies get closer to her, she stood a fighting chance.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But now, she did not feel that way.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Against the deadly, swift Dark Tide beast, her profession felt lacking.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Am I going to die here today?\" she thought, biting hard at the corner of her lips as she released another arrow.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Her target swiftly evaded the attack.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The humanoid beast closed the short distance in a blink and swung its deadly claws.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Unlike Thoren, who could see the Dark Tide beast, other awakeners had to rely on their skills and perception.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>This was why the Dark Tide was deadly to every awakener. It was the time when most awakeners lost their lives.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>It was the meat grinder on the first floor.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Suddenly, every hair on Ophelia’s body stood on end, her instinct screaming of impending danger.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>She reacted, following her instinct, turning in the direction of the danger, and released two rapid shots.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Whoosh! Whoosh!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The human beast twisted mid-air and swung its claws.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Aaah!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>A miserable scream escaped her lips as she stumbled backward.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>A deep gash appeared on her arm, blood gushing out like a broken dam.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Her situation turned from bad to worse.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Without her arm, she was unable to pull her bowstring. Fear gripped her heart like a vise.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Her eyes wandered around, trying to escape, but everywhere she looked, darkness pressed in.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Are you alright?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Suddenly, a voice asked.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Hmm?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Ophelia widened her eyes as the darkness around her receded and she was finally able to see the Dark Tide beast.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>[Shadow Husk]\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Level: 10\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>[Trait 1: Dark Swipe]\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>– Every claw attack was infused with dark energy.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>[Trait 2: Rotten Grasp]\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>– Slows the target briefly on hit\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Her heart skipped a beat when she saw the information about the Dark Tide beast. Now she knew why her reaction had been slower than usual.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But her mind did not linger on it too long as she shifted her gaze to Thoren. From the beginning, he had never looked at her; his gaze was locked on the Shadow Husk.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Against Thoren’s undead servants, the Shadow Husk stood no chance. A single hammer shattered it into pieces. Its body dissolved into ashes and disappeared.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>With the Shadow Husk killed, Thoren did not receive any experience; its level was simply too low for him to gain any experience points. Still, the soul lantern managed to harvest the soul fire.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Are you alright?\" he asked again, staring at her.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>She froze for a moment but recovered quickly. \"Y-yes... thank you for saving me.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"It’s nothing...\" he replied as he began to move toward the second floor.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Take care of your injury and don’t let down your guard,\" he added as he climbed the steps.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>On the second floor, Thoren encountered many Dark Tide beasts along the way.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Compared to the lobby, where there had been only a single Dark Tide beast, the second floor was teeming with them.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The battle on the second floor was more dangerous and devastating.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Many walls had been reduced to shards.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Fresh blood permeated the air.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Groans echoed in the air.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>His undead servant cleaved all the Dark Tide beasts one after another. A girl lay on the ground, covered in blood, all hope lost when Thoren arrived and killed the Dark Tide Beast.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>In another room, another girl cast fire spells continuously, burning everything around her and pushing the Dark Tide beasts back.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"They’re dead,\" Thoren said as he entered the room.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The Fire Mage stared at Thoren for a moment before she asked with a shaky voice, \"A-Are you sure?\" Her mana had almost run out.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Yes,\" Thoren nodded. \"Go and help your friend in the next room.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Leaving the room, he encountered a girl holding a heavy shield as she tried to block the Dark Tide beast, acting on instinct.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But Thoren’s illusory, floating lantern allowed her to see clearly. She was shocked, her jaw dropping.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Is this one of his abilities?\" she thought with wide eyes.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Thoren did not care what was going on in her mind as he killed the two Dark Tide beasts.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Are you alright?\" he asked.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Y-yes... thanks for the help.\" She recovered from her daze and replied with genuine gratitude.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"It’s nothing. You can go and meet the others,\" he said as he continued to the last room.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>She nodded and looked at him for a moment before he rushed to the other sister’s room.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>When Thoren arrived at Fidelia’s room, she was uninjured, but her body was covered in perspiration.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>When she saw the sudden light, she gripped her sword tightly and was ready to strike when she saw him.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"What are you doing here?\" she asked in puzzlement.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The Dark Tide was extremely dangerous, and moving around would only make him a target.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But looking at the illusory lantern, she furrowed her brow.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"I came to lend a hand, but I can see you can handle yourself pretty well.\" Thoren replied.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Ah! Thank you...\" she nodded, appreciating his goodwill.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Let go. Some of your sisters are injured and need immediate care.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>With that, he turned and left the room entrance. Behind him, Fidelia walked closely. Looking at the destruction around her, she was shocked.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>It was only then that she realized she was not the only one attacked by more powerful Dark Tide beasts.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Arriving at the lobby, the others had already started treating each other. However, the girl lying unconscious on the ground made Fidelia shiver.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Is she alright?\" she asked as Thoren knelt beside her.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"She is fine,\" one of the girls replied. \"Thanks to Thoren, she probably would have died if he had not arrived on time.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>All the girls looked at him, their eyes filled with gratitude. Fidelia opened her mouth and wanted to speak, but he interrupted her.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Don’t thank me yet. We’re not out of danger,\" he said in a grim voice.\u003C\u002Fp>",1051,"2026-06-03T10:41:31.766Z","2026-06-03T10:41:38.603Z",1,"novelbin.me","220308d59dd7fe5055834ab7b9ac6f3396f31e3a2ce665164574ddc005efe928","global-survival-i-have-endless-skeletons-chapter-105","global-survival-i-have-endless-skeletons-chapter-103",326,"https:\u002F\u002Fnovelzhen.com\u002Fimages\u002Fcovers\u002Fglobal-survival-i-have-endless-skeletons-cover.jpg"]
