Chapter 319: Golden Skeletons VS Cyclops King

~7 min read 1,228 words

Many class-transfers felt their scalps go numb.

Seeing all the golden monsters turn their gaze toward them, they only regretted not having grown two extra legs.

Those who could turn invisible hid directly in the darkness, not daring to even breathe heavily.

"The Boss said not to kill, and human blood smells so bad; what if it splashes on my face? I'd have to wash for a week."

"Yes, except for the Boss, other humans really smell terrible; after tearing open their bellies, it's just piles of shit and urine..."

The many skeletons actually gave up on dealing with them simply because humans smelled bad.

That reason was somewhat contemptuous...

But the crowd still didn't dare say a word; their lives were more important.

"Brothers, let's go quickly; I smell the stench of urine."

"Good!"

Then, all the golden skeletons ignored the humans at the scene and rushed straight toward the interior of the Third Layer.

The crowd behind looked at each other, faces turning red one by one; they had actually been mocked by monsters!!!

"Let's go, let's follow them, even though we don't know what's going on with these golden skeletons."

"Perhaps these golden skeletons are going to challenge the Bone Castle's BOSS."

"Impossible—the Bone Castle's BOSS is someone even Tian Shu, a Second-Transcendence Level 35, couldn't take down."

"That's not certain; look at those skeletons just now; they clearly possess the phasing attack characteristics of ghosts. The Cyclops King on this layer might not come out on top!!!"

Although the golden skeletons had just performed brilliantly, many still believed there was a gap between the golden skeletons challenging the Cyclops King of the Bone Castle's Third Layer.

Some even simply didn't believe the golden skeletons could defeat the Cyclops King.

The crowd followed behind while the many golden skeletons went ahead; whenever they encountered some Cyclopes, the scene would be three golden skeletons pouncing together, and a few seconds later, the Cyclops would scream in agony.

Wherever the golden skeletons passed, it was like a locust swarm crossing a field; the Cyclopes were looted too, and even the golden skeletons who originally held handfuls of short swords, after looting several Cyclopes, had their short swords replaced with Dragon-Slaying Greatswords.

However, what surprised Jiang Li was that although they looted the Cyclopes' greatswords, once they reached the golden skeletons' hands, they became Golden Dragon-Slaying Greatswords.

Quickly, all the golden skeletons arrived at the end of the Bone Castle's Third Layer.

Before them was a cliff.

Jiang Li really couldn't understand; it was clearly a huge castle, so how could there be an abyss?

But thinking carefully, he felt he was being somewhat stubborn; nothing in this world happened scientifically; was the Bone Castle necessarily a castle? Having an abyss was normal.

The many golden skeletons hesitated not at all and jumped straight off the cliff.

Many class-transfers followed behind them.

A hundred-meter cliff could kill an ordinary person, but for these class-transfers, it would only cost some health; their bodies digitized, they recovered after drinking half a bottle of health potion.

Jiang Li also followed behind the crowd.

The bottom of the cliff was not the darkness one imagined; eternal oil lamps dotted the bone pillars one by one; if the Bone Castle existed, then the eternal oil lamps would never extinguish.

The crowd followed the golden skeletons to the end and saw a Cyclops King, four or five meters tall and covered in black short hair, sitting on his throne.

【Monster: Cyclops King】

【Level: 30】

【Attack: 20 million】

【HP: 20 million】

【Skills: Phasing Attack, Petrification Beam, Attack Speed Boost, Gale, Phantom Clone, Split Attack, Flame Charge...】

Originally, the Cyclops King's stats might have been slightly inferior to those of the Golden Phantom King.

Attack and HP were both standard.

But—the sheer number of skills was somewhat infuriating.

Combined with so many skills, it was enough to handle enemies in both duels and group fights.

Class-transfers' stats were far inferior to monsters', but the reason class-transfers could survive was entirely due to various skill combinations and equipment buffs, making the combat power of class-transfers whose stats didn't look impressive extremely formidable.

And now, every single skill of the Cyclops King was absolutely explosive; no wonder Tian Shu, a Second-Transcendence Level 35, couldn't do anything to the Cyclops King.

"Brothers, when two tigers fight, one must be injured; although these golden monsters are powerful, fighting the Cyclops King will inevitably cause casualties; this is a Level 30 BOSS after all."

Jiang Li was just somewhat puzzled.

It was clearly a Level 20 dungeon, yet the final BOSS appeared at Level 30.

That was somewhat unreasonable.

The Cyclops King did not rush to attack but naturally lowered the hand propping up his head, then opened his single eye to look at the skeleton soldiers before him.

"A familiar aura!"

Although it was just a single sentence.

It made Jiang Li, hidden in the darkness, frown.

"A familiar aura, why is it familiar?"

Normally, the power fluctuations radiating from these skeleton soldiers now were similar to Jiang Li's.

But why did the Cyclops King say it was familiar?

Skeleton Number One said, "Have you met our Boss?"

"No—"

"I haven't met your Boss, but the Supreme Abyss Lord has remembered your Boss's aura, so he sent me here!"

"It seems you really have a connection with that man? Then I must take action to eliminate you, finally drawing out the person I am looking for!"

The Cyclops King's words were puzzling; Jiang Li even felt that the Abyss Lord the Cyclops King mentioned was searching for him.

Jiang Li looked around; he even suspected this Bone Castle was fishing, fishing for him.

Originally, seeing the Cyclops King's stats like that, he had prepared to secretly use some methods to help the skeleton soldiers.

But now, with his cautious nature, he intended to hide completely in the darkness and simply watch the spectacle.

At worst, he would just drink a bit more Spirit Potion.

He had looted quite a lot from Uncle Tian, and the Golden Skeleton had also looted quite a lot from other class-switchers before.

Nothing else was abundant, but these Red Potions, Blue Potions, and Spirit Potions were too numerous to count.

The Cyclops King was powerful, but it lacked any skill to heal itself; he would just wear it down slowly.

Others, however, did not hold the Golden Skeleton in high regard and were all preparing to pick up the scraps from the Golden Monsters.

The great battle was on the verge of erupting.

All the Golden Monsters entered a Berserk State and a Gale State, charging together at the Cyclops King.

The Skeleton Soldiers at the front line swung their Dragon-Slaying Blades at the Cyclops King.

The Cyclops King did not even rise from his throne; he merely wore an expression of utter contempt as the weapon passed through his body.

Green beams shot from the Cyclops King's eyes, enveloping more than a dozen Golden Skeleton Soldiers.

Several Golden Skeleton Soldiers immediately activated the Phasing skill to dodge.

The Golden Skeleton Soldiers shrouded in the light turned directly to stone, then with a soft "Boom," crumbled into a pile of golden dust.

"Huh—do even small Skeleton Soldiers possess a Phasing skill?"

"Then I shall play along with you and see how long you can last."
