Chapter 512 - 512: Fighting Skeletons - Part 1 (1/2)
The sound of bones scratching echoed and a skeleton horde passed through the portal. These skeletons vibrated as they walked, and the entire earth trembled under the army's advance. Their power varied from the 1st Layer of the Spiritual Realm to the 1st Layer of the Monarch Realm.
[Kill them all!] What appeared to be the leader of the skeletons, mounted on a bony horse, shouted.
”Oh, can you talk... Ooh?” Little Yui was surprised to hear the skeleton speak. So far, the previous two monsters have not said a single word that they were able to understand.
Little Emma was clicking her tongue while using spiritual mana. However, an absurd amount of skeletons started to appear from the portal, which was enough to scare anyone.
”... Madness,” someone murmured.
”Look at them, Theo...” Aomi said beside him.
They were in a very large square, and there were a very, very, very, very, very, very large number of skeletons with armor and weapons filling the place. The armored skeletons sported a much more domineering spirit compared to normal skeletons. It was obvious that the undead were inside the armor.
[Not one of you guys will survive.]
[Prepare to die!]
[Your judgment is near.]
Even in death, these skeletons with armor did not forget the will and the techniques engraved on their bodies. They were skeletons who had a sense of identity: they were Skeleton Knights. Furthermore, they were all very powerful and were all on the 1st Layer of the Monarch Realm. In total there were 2000 of them.
If a normal group in the Monarch Realm fought against their army, the possibility of victory was uncertain.
The skeleton at the front raised his sword towards the cultivators while his helmet glowed neon red in his helmet.
All the Skeleton Knights followed the one who was in the lead while aiming their swords at the cultivators, including Theo and Athena, and Waru's group.
While thinking that he should research more about these skeletons, Theo kicked off the ground and stepped into the air. He saw a woman on the 12th Layer of the Spiritual Realm almost being killed by a skeleton. She was the one closest to the skeleton horde and was therefore surrounded. After a hard attack, the woman was falling helpless in the air, so she could have been hurt even more.
[Kikiki! Huh?]
Theo reached the woman's side quickly and grabbed one of her arms before throwing her in Aomi's direction. Of course, the skeletons didn't recognize Theo's power, as they couldn't feel his power and attacked him madly.
[Die! Everyone has to die!] The bony skeletons screamed and attacked Theo.
[Huh!?]
*Crack!*
One punch from Theo was enough to turn the bones of one of the skeletons into thousands of pieces. All the shards flew towards the other skeletons, breaking some part of their bones.
