Chapter 293

But how could a few priests dare to move even a fraction, for the golden axe was already raised high, poised to strike.

Andre was filled with despair. "Do not kill me, I beg you—I can fulfill any demand you have."

Yet the golden axe still came down directly.

"Ah!"

Andre let out a scream like a slaughtered pig, but the giant axe stopped steadily just three inches before Andre's head.

"Ah, ah, ah, I almost forgot, I cannot kill people at will!"

Then the skeleton made a fanning motion. "So stinky, so stinky. If you want to be a skeleton another day, come find me. Being human has no future; eating, drinking, defecating, urinating, and sleeping, even the feces and urine are terribly foul."

After speaking, the Golden Axe Skeleton charged at the other four priests and began fighting.

When Andre was left with only a sliver of health, one of the priests cast a Healing Light on him.

Andre's entire skeleton crackled and popped; the next moment, he drank several bottles of health potions, cast Healing Light on himself again, and instantly revived with full health.

Jiang Li, hidden in the shadows, sighed.

"This is body data; it is an existence nearly like a BUG. No matter how severe the injury, as long as the replenishment is adequate, one simply cannot die."

Andre re-entered the fray: "Beast, I, Andre, swear that today I will surely kill you!"

The five priests used various methods to attack the Golden Axe Skeleton.

Priests also have offensive means. Jiang Li discovered that the priests' attacks, when landing on the Golden Axe Skeleton Soldier, still dealt a certain amount of damage, higher than the damage dealt by ordinary warriors or mages.

"That is to say, the undead are still undead; only the undead's resistances differ."

The Golden Skeleton's resistance is slightly higher, but that does not mean the priests cannot deal damage.

De Mu said, "Everyone, hold on. His berserk state will not last long."

Jiang Li, hidden in the shadows, nodded.

The Golden Axe grew somewhat anxious.

He wanted to retreat, but the five priests tangled him up in every way; the Truth Lasso nearly every time left him unable to dodge.

Each time, it slowed his movements slightly.

"If—I had not chosen External Incarnation, but had chosen Transformation into Ease, then the effect would be completely different; the skeleton could perfectly use my skills..."

Jiang Li shook his head; since the choice was made, overthinking served no purpose.

Indeed, after three minutes, the priests were covered in wounds, but the berserk state of the Golden Axe Skeleton vanished.

The vanished berserk state would need ten minutes before awakening again.

Without the berserk state, the skeleton's combat power dropped drastically.

The five priests healed each other; their sustainability increased exponentially, gradually showing a tendency to suppress the Golden Axe Skeleton.

"Big brothers, let's discuss something. Considering I did not directly kill you just now, could you spare my life?"

Skeleton Number One began to beg for mercy, showing not a shred of dignity.

"That one who peed his pants in fright, just now I clearly had the chance to kill you directly; can we discuss this?"

Andre's face instantly turned black.

This would become his lifelong shame.

"I am going to kill you!"

The priests suddenly felt the surroundings had grown quiet in a way that felt wrong.

The onlookers nearby suddenly stopped their murmurs.

"Everyone be careful; after all, we are facing a golden monster!"

"Such a precious treasure will surely attract the covetousness of others!"

The five priests attacked with full force; the Golden Axe's health bar was visibly nearing empty.

The five priests simultaneously used the Truth Lasso, directly binding the Golden Axe Skeleton.

"Let me go."

"This truly loses face for the skeleton."

The Axe Skeleton struggled constantly; without the berserk state, he could not break free from the Truth Lasso at all.

"Beast, I will send you to the Western Heaven." After speaking, Andre began chanting a healing spell to unleash his ultimate move.

"Wait—hold on."

Just as Andre was about to attack, his strike was directly interrupted by a mage.

"You..."

When Andre saw the other person's appearance, he swallowed the peanut he had been chewing.

The newcomer had golden hair and blue eyes, with a somewhat sinister and charming gaze, resembling De Mu in appearance.

De De Banggu—De Mu's brother; both were offspring of the De Mu family, but their daily relationship was not good; they were in competition. De De Banggu was a mage.

"Big brother—what do you intend to do?" De Mu said.

"What do I intend? A golden monster, rare in the world; brother, wanting to swallow this alone seems inappropriate!"

"This golden monster was taken down by us in the first place," Andre said.

De De Banggu glanced at Andre and said, "Andre, you slave of slave status, how dare you be presumptuous before me? Do you believe that tomorrow when I return, I will cause your family's destruction?"

Andre's face looked ugly, but he still bowed and said, "Young Master, I was wrong!"

"Hmph—get down. This is no place for you to speak."

De Mu's face also turned iron-green, knowing that today it was absolutely impossible to take down the Golden Skeleton alone.

"Big brother, propose a plan. Tell us what to do. Asking us to hand over our achievements to you is impossible."

De De Banggu said, "How about this: we bind the little skeleton. There are at least dozens of us here on the spot. We attack together; whoever delivers the final blow to the Golden Skeleton monster, then the skeleton monster ultimately belongs to them. How does that sound? That is fair, isn't it!!!"
