Chapter 413: Watching the Fire from the Opposite Bank: I Stand Irreconcilably Against Sin

Jiang Li appeared in a different form, causing an uproar among the class-changers nearby.

It was not that Jiang Li was too strong, but that he appeared far too weak.

Pitifully weak; his attack and HP stats were only slightly higher than those of second-class individuals around level 30 like them.

They were even lower than some second-class individuals with higher star ratings.

Such stats on a person would mark them as a powerhouse, but appearing on a monster, it was an inconceivable matter.

Indeed, everyone present felt they could one-shot Jiang Li with a single combo.

Almost everyone began to entertain the idea.

They merely exchanged glances and understood the meaning within each other's eyes.

"I wondered why these skeletons were so strong and had no weaknesses! It turns out the Necromancer summoning them is super weak; that is their weakness!"

"Yes! Symbiotic skills, external avatars, and Ice Explosion—such heaven-defying skills are just like cheating. It turns out the Necromancer summoning them is actually that weak."

"But what puzzles me even more is why that Necromancer looks human???"

"No need to wonder—I still sensed waves of undead power from the Necromancer's body; it's just that this Necromancer has compressed the dark power to the extreme, making the presence of dark power nearly undetectable. He found some human skin somewhere and pretends to be human; truly laughable!"

What these people did not know was that Jiang Li saw all their chatter.

What they knew even less was that the so-called Necromancer they spoke of was completely a class-changer; it was only because he was currently completing a hidden dungeon for class advancement that his health bar appeared purple, preventing his identity from being exposed.

The corner of Jiang Li's mouth curled into an arc.

"I originally intended to let you go, but since you seek death, I will give you one more chance!"

Then Jiang Li transmitted a soul fluctuation to Skeleton Number One.

As a six-star Synthesizer and also a six-star Summoner, he naturally shared a mental connection with his summons; he could convey his intentions without speaking a word.

"Boss, you're so sinister!"

"Shut up and get to work; don't let these people see through us!"

"Yes!"

Jiang Li stepped into the Space Portal of the Castle Sixth Layer, followed by all his skeleton underlings entering the Sixth Layer space together.

The Sixth Layer—

In the upgraded Castle Sixth Layer, illuminated by the glow of the skeletons, the second-class individuals who had just stepped in remained unaware of the dangers lurking here.

As far as the eye could see:

【Monster: Reaper Scythe Skeleton】

【Attack: 15 million】

【HP: 15 million】

【Skills:...】

【Monster: Bone Dragon Spirit】

【Attack: 18 million】

【HP: 18 million】

【Skills:...】

Both types of monsters were status-afflicting creatures, possessing corrosion skills, freezing skills, and bleeding skills.

When these two monster types were not separated but aggregated together, their attack and HP stats could only be described as moderate for second-class class-changers—neither high nor low—but the combination of so many status skills made them a headache-inducing existence.

However, many class-changers were aware of those skeletons' modus operandi.

Therefore, they did not intend to attack but instead sought an opportunity to directly kill Jiang Li, who stood in the midst of the skeletons.

Almost everyone knew that these Ice Diamond Skeleton monsters had previously been Golden Skeletons.

They just did not know for what reason they had upgraded to their current form.

Precisely because of this, these people formed their intent; they decided to watch the fire from the opposite bank, letting these Ice Skeletons fight the monsters of the Sixth Layer to the death, then seize an opening to deliver a killing blow to Jiang Li before fleeing immediately, as they had no desire to face a siege from so many Ice Skeletons.

As for the monsters of the Sixth Layer—upon discovering Jiang Li and his skeleton legion—exclamation marks simply appeared collectively above their heads!

The exclamation marks represented confusion; the monsters of the Sixth Layer could not distinguish whether Jiang Li was friend or foe.

"Hey—what kind of skeletons are you?"

The Reaper Scythe Skeletons and even the Bone Dragons emitted waves of emotional fluctuations, attempting to communicate.

The difference between high-level monsters and low-level monsters often lay in intelligence.

The monsters of the Castle Sixth Layer clearly possessed a certain degree of intelligence.

A thought stirred in Jiang Li's heart, and he said, "Allies; we are allies!"

Number One also said, "We are allies!"

The exclamation marks atop the heads of the Reaper Scythe Skeletons and Bone Dragons disappeared one by one.

Jiang Li led his subordinates to blend in among the Reaper Skeletons.

Then...

He and his skeleton underlings, along with the Reaper Scythe Skeletons, all turned their gaze toward the class-changers not far away.

"Oh no, why aren't they fighting each other!"

Those second-class class-changers panicked instantly; the plan they had concocted in their minds had not even been utilized once, yet the monsters had already united.

The script was not written this way.

The Reaper Scythe Skeletons and Bone Dragons, two powerful undead creatures, roared and immediately attacked the second-class human class-changers.

Before the class-changers could react, they were embroiled in a chaotic battle with the Reaper Scythe Skeleton soldiers and Bone Dragons of the Sixth Layer.

And Jiang Li? Leading most of his subordinates, he watched the fire from the opposite bank; not a single skeleton stepped forward to attack those class-changers.

"Boss—don't you want the experience points?" Number One asked, puzzled.

"Killing ordinary monsters yields almost no experience; only killing monsters of the same kind grants massive experience!" Jiang Li said.

"But—aren't you afraid that the monsters on the Sixth Layer will kill them all directly?" Number One said.

"No. Do you think they would meet you? Second-Transcendence characters are not that weak."

"Boss, I find you becoming more and more sinister, hehe!"

Number Ninety-Five Skeleton said from the side.

"Human hearts are inherently more sinister than any monster! If they want to harm me, I have no choice but to strike back," Jiang Li said.

The two groups of people fought each other, and as Jiang Li had predicted, indeed, a few Transcendence users died at the very beginning.

But as time passed, the Second-Transcendence Transcendence users called for reinforcements, and a large number of friendly Transcendence users entered from the Chuansong Sect.

Since Jiang Li left the Dark Forest, up to now in Norland, two months have passed, yet in reality, only a little over one day has passed; after the Bone Castle upgraded, these Transcendence users had just come to explore the Bone Castle!

Because Jiang Li had swept through the First to Fifth Layers, the Second-Transcendence Transcendence users who entered later had a clear path all the way, arriving directly at the Sixth Layer of the Bone Castle.

As soon as they entered, they saw human Transcendence users being pressed down and forced into the battle.
