Chapter 289

At the same time, Jiang Li also discovered that the current Bone Castle was completely different from the previous one in both size and layout.

Corridor after corridor led to who knew where; walking inside made it extremely easy to get lost, and Jiang Li even suspected that many people had been forced to withdraw precisely because they got lost.

The Golden Skeleton Soldiers encountered the same problem.

After walking for a while, the numerous Golden Skeleton Soldiers began to deliberate.

Before them lay eleven intersections.

Number One Golden Axe Skeleton was the boss of this group of skeletons.

"Groups of ten, go explore!!!"

"Then what about you, Boss?"

"I will take the eleventh path alone. If any one of you finds the exit to this layer, just use the Telepathy skill directly."

Jiang Li was speechless in his heart; these skeleton soldiers' arithmetic seemed rather poor.

Jiang Li said, "What is Telepathy? I did not see this skill listed among your abilities."

The soul-fire within Number One Golden Skeleton's skull flickered as he said, "Boss, as expected, you are following secretly; Telepathy is the hidden skill of us hundred brothers, so it does not appear in the system; whenever any one of us encounters danger, we can summon all other brothers to teleport nearby to help!"

"Alright. That is truly very practical."

In his heart, Jiang Li could not help but sigh that it was indeed very practical.

"Then during your running just now, I thought I saw you employing a Formation; was that my illusion?" Jiang Li asked.

"No, Boss is truly Boss, to have noticed even this; during our brothers' charge, we indeed utilized a Military Formation; this formation is called the Chaos Spirit Formation, specifically designed for fighting many with few; as long as we brothers charge into the enemy's camp, our brothers' chaotic rhythm together will drag the enemy into chaos as well, while we ourselves appear chaotic yet remain ordered, allowing us to strike down the enemy directly from within!"

Number One Skeleton Soldier's explanation left Jiang Li shocked.

"One would never have imagined there could be such a Formation."

"Alright, I have no more questions; you may continue on your way," Jiang Li said.

Number One Golden Skeleton, holding a small battle-axe, walked into the eleventh corridor.

However, Jiang Li could not agree with his behavior, which was nearly identical to that of his brothers: directly abducting any female skeleton they met and directly chopping to death any male skeleton they encountered...

At this moment—

An extraordinary group of figures had arrived at the first layer of the Bone Skeleton Dungeon.

Ever since the entire Bone Castle Dungeon upgraded for some unknown reason,

various first-tier major figures had begun arriving.

However, today was different; today, someone publicly declared their intention to completely eliminate the Lich King mission on the final layer of Bone Castle.

The ones making such a bold claim were a five-person team of Priests.

A Priest's Healing Magic, for Warriors and for all other professions, marked them as the healer role.

Yet paradoxically, it inflicted tremendous damage upon undead creatures, hardly differing from a Holy Mage.

Moreover, all five members of this team were level fifteen Reincarnator Priests: three men and two women.

Every single Priest was renowned; the Priest profession was always the most sought-after role in various party formations.

Therefore, every Priest was extremely famous.

The men wore Starry Sky Robes and held Starry Sky Staves, while the two female Priests had long blue hair cascading over their shoulders; their equipment was even more exaggerated than that of the male Priests, their garments inlaid with gems and their staves set with sun-and-moon gems.

The grade of their equipment was frighteningly high; even in the outside markets, such sets were nearly unique, all of them being full sets of Blue-grade equipment.

The highest grade of equipment was Gold.

But in the world, perhaps only a handful of people were known to possess Gold-grade equipment, and those were all super experts on the level of Demigods or Gods.

Perhaps Synthesizers simply did not exist in this world; even if they did, there was likely no one as monstrous as Jiang Li.

The five Priests wore looks of extreme arrogance; before them lay nothing but skeleton bones, piled almost into mountains.

"Hmph—"

"What a load of crap this Bone Castle is; it's truly weak to the extreme."

Though clearly a Priest, he sported a face full of curly beard, possessed a burly build, and spoke crudely.

"Andrei, you simply placed too much hope in this place from the start; Priests naturally counter all kinds of undead!"

The blue-haired female Priest said while playing with her blue fingernails.

Seeming afraid to retort, Andrei turned his head away and fell silent.

The one with a head full of golden hair was named De Mu.

Yes, his name was literally De Mu.

If Jiang Li were here, he would certainly think of a certain breed of dog from his previous life...

"Let's hurry to the second layer dungeon; I heard the second layer contains vast numbers of ghosts, and no one has ever completely cleared out those ghost creatures yet; I heard that even level thirty experts were helpless against those ghosts; if we kill those ghosts, we will surely gain massive experience, and perhaps even rewards."

The onlookers around clicked their tongues in astonishment.

"This is going against heaven."

"Yes, did you see it just now? Sweeping through the first layer dungeon? Hundreds upon hundreds of skeletons wiped out in less than ten minutes."

"Now they are heading to the second layer Ghost Dungeon; the second layer contains not only ghosts and skeletons but even poisonous insects—experts at level thirty couldn't sweep it; can these Priests manage it?"

"It's unclear, but Priests naturally counter undead, so perhaps they can."

While everyone was discussing, they suddenly heard familiar footsteps coming from the end of the dark corridor.

Those footsteps were far too familiar to the crowd.

It was the sound of skeleton soldiers walking, emitting a "clack-clack" noise with each step.

"It seems one skeleton remains uncleared."

Someone muttered quietly.

The five Priests halted their steps, their brows slightly furrowed; upon entering the Bone Dungeon, they had obtained a map of the first layer.

They had traversed and swept every single maze corridor; by rights, there should be no stragglers left.

But then.

They cried out in shock, like everyone else.

"Golden Skeleton Soldiers!!!"
