Faint traces of dried blood still clung to the edges.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>All around her, hushed conversations filled the air.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Every topic revolved around a single name...Thoren.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Many believed that the Ghost Scream Bounty Hunters had successfully set a trap for him.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>They whispered that the evil necromancer kid had finally been cornered, that arrogance had led him back into town.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But Idonea knew better.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>She and a select few understood the truth.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>How could the Ghost Scream Bounty Hunters possibly compare to the Stonewall Tribe sealed within the ancient coffin?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>She clenched her fingers unconsciously.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>She was a Level 13 Lancer, someone who had survived countless battles in the Abyss.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Yet she had been handled like a helpless child by the monster inside the coffin.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>She had not even managed to force her opponent to take her seriously.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>And Thoren?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He had crushed them without breaking a sweat, dismantling their forces with terrifying ease.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>What unsettled her even more was the fact that such a monstrous existence had now become part of his undead legion.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>And now, some overconfident fools had decided to provoke that monster.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Just imagining what was about to unfold made the corners of her lips curl upward into a faint, anticipatory smile.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Ah... I can’t wait to see their faces when he tears them apart,\" she muttered softly, her voice thick with grim satisfaction.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Basil had never threatened Thoren.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He had merely spoken out of turn.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Yet Thoren had broken every bone in his arm, crushing it beyond recovery and leaving him permanently crippled.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>If that was the price of mere disrespect, then she could easily imagine the fate awaiting those who dared to threaten him directly.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>While Idonea waited patiently outside, the atmosphere inside the Ghost Scream Bounty Hunter headquarters was filled with noise and indulgence.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>A group of men sat around a large, round wooden table.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Thick slabs of roasted meat lay scattered across its surface, grease glistening under torchlight, accompanied by several jars of strong alcohol.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Laughter echoed through the room, loud and unrestrained.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>These men were the captains of the Ghost Scream Bounty Hunters.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>At the head of the table sat their leader, a young man with sharp features and a savage glint in his eyes.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>His posture was relaxed, arrogant even, as though nothing in the Abyss could truly threaten him.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He was a Level 15 Hunter, a fact that fueled his confidence and sense of superiority.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The Ghost Scream Bounty Hunters were composed of three main professions: Hunters, Assassins, and Warriors.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Among them, Warriors were the fewest.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Hunters dominated the ranks, relying on tracking, ambushes, and overwhelming numbers rather than brute force.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Boss, your plan worked,\" one of the captains said, leaning forward with a flattering grin plastered across his face.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Of course it worked,\" another chimed in quickly. \"The Boss’s strategy is flawless. Other bounty hunter groups were practically drooling with jealousy when they heard about it.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Hahahaha!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The room erupted in laughter.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The Boss leaned back in his chair, soaking in their praise, pride swelling in his chest.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The Abyss was vast beyond imagination. If they had tried to hunt Thoren through conventional means, following rumors and broken trails.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>It would have taken months, perhaps even years to locate him.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But this plan?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>This plan drew the prey directly to them.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>As for the Crimson Arc Guild pressuring them to release the captured women, the Boss hadn’t spared them a second thought.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>With the backing they had, both visible and hidden.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Why should they fear a mere guild?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"I heard the boy is already making his way here,\" another captain said, lifting his jar and taking a long gulp.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"After this, our reputation will soar,\" someone else added. \"The name of Ghost Scream will echo throughout the Abyss.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"And the Federation’s pressure will lessen as well,\" another voice chimed in. \"After all, we’ve helped them more than enough.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Hahahaha!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Their laughter rang out once more.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>From the beginning, their goal had never been to rise to the top or challenge the Abyss itself.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Most of them possessed D-rank talents or lower. Fighting for humanity’s survival had never been their dream.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>They wanted comfort.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>They wanted wealth.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>They wanted to enjoy their lives.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>And while they hadn’t completely abandoned their humanity, that didn’t mean they would refuse a mission just because the target was human, especially if the Abyss races paid well.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Human or not.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Money was all that mattered.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Suddenly, hurried footsteps echoed from the corridor outside the room.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Boss!\" a young man called out as he rushed in, barely able to hide his excitement. \"He’s arrived.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Very well.\" The Boss nodded, a smug smile spreading across his face. \"Let’s go and welcome our guest.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Bwahahaha!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He rose to his feet, laughter spilling from his lips.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>One by one, the captains followed, their amusement evident as they strode toward the exit.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Outside, a massive crowd had gathered before the Ghost Scream Bounty Hunter headquarters.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The Crimson Arc Guild stood among them, with Arin at the forefront.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Surrounding them were members of weaker guilds, independent awakeners, and everyone eager to witness how the situation would unfold.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>At the center of it all stood Thoren.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He faced the building calmly, his expression detached and unreadable.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He spared Ophelia, Fidelia, and the others only a brief glance before returning his gaze to the entrance.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>From the corner of his eye, he had already noticed men quietly positioning themselves to block every possible escape route.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The moment he arrived, they had decided he would not be allowed to leave.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Not that he had any intention of doing so.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Creak. Creak.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The doors opened.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The Boss stepped out first, followed closely by his captains. Their faces were etched with arrogance, disdain, and absolute confidence.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Have you come to surrender yourself?\" the Boss asked, his deep voice echoing across the square.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Since you dared to go against the Federation, you should have known this hour would come.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He clasped his hands behind his back, chin raised. \"You’re lucky. We won’t kill you. We’ll simply hand you over to the Federation officers.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Silence fell.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>No one spoke.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>No one dared to breathe too loudly.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>All eyes were fixed on Thoren.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Would he surrender without resistance?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The air grew heavy, suffocating beneath his silence.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"You must be the leader of the Ghost Scream Bounty Hunters,\" Thoren said at last, his tone casual, almost bored.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"That’s right,\" the Boss replied proudly. \"Now hurry up. Don’t ruin my good mood.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Instead of responding to the taunt, Thoren glanced around the area.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"I see you brought all your men,\" he said calmly.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The bounty hunters frowned, confusion flickering across their faces.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Before anyone could question his meaning, Thoren continued, his voice dropping to a dangerous whisper.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"You see... I don’t like being threatened.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Whoosh!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Before anyone could react, the hooded skeleton beside him vanished.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>It was a Level 14 undead Stonewall Warrior.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Behind Ophelia and Fidelia, three Level 11 Warriors stood guard. Yet before they could even raise their weapons, the undead moved.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>To them, its movements felt impossibly fast. Like watching shadows slip through water.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Bang! Bang! Bang!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>A gleaming dagger flashed in the skeleton’s hands as it slit through their throats with ruthless precision.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Ahhhh!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Blood sprayed across the ground.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Screams pierced the air.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The crowd froze, horror seizing their hearts.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>One thought echoed through every mind present.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>What... just happened?\u003C\u002Fp>",1291,"2026-06-03T10:41:31.766Z","2026-06-03T10:41:38.603Z",1,"novelbin.me","baefa534c580b14a6aa4ec56ebb2957d110f3986dd5b3782e160922c8a94aab2","global-survival-i-have-endless-skeletons-chapter-71","global-survival-i-have-endless-skeletons-chapter-69",326,"https:\u002F\u002Fnovelzhen.com\u002Fimages\u002Fcovers\u002Fglobal-survival-i-have-endless-skeletons-cover.jpg"]
