Translator: Dragon Boat Translation Editor: Dragon BaatTranstation

Skeleton Lizards, which were as high as Tier 4, 2 stars, could burrow into the sand and attack from beneath, making it easy to be ambushed by them.

Therefore, Ji Chens plan to deal with them was quite simple: lure these Skeleton Lizards out and then let Alice control them to fight for their side.

To attract them, bait was needed. Ji Chen looked around and his gaze settled on the Self-Detonating Water Spiders.

These spiders possessed excellent mobility in the sand, making them suitable as bait.

Ji Chen led the army to retreat about two or three kilometers away and set up an ambush at the top of a sand dune.

With a wave of his hand, fifty Self-Detonating Water Spiders left the group and scurried towards the stone forest with their eight long legs, approaching from various directions.

Sensing rhe presence of living beings, a large group of skeleton monsters quickly headed towards them, including a significant number of Skeleton Lizards.

The blue flames in the eye sockets of the Skeleton Lizards flickered, and their jagged mouths made clicking sounds. Their st.u.r.dy forearms dug into the ground, kicking up sand. Their entire bodies burrowed into the sand, creating a slender sand tunnel on the surface as they moved toward the enemy.

Seeing that the Skeleton Lizards were successfully attracted, the

Self-Detonating Water Spiders ignored the other skeleton creatures and turned around without hesitation. They quickly fled at a speed that the others couldnt catch up with.

The Skeleton Lizards moved swiftly within the gravel, quickly distancing themselves from the other skeleton creatures and leaving them behind. They closely trailed the Self-Detonating Water Spiders, almost leaping out of the gravel multiple times, as if on the verge of pouncing on them.

Behind each Self-Detonating Water Spider, one or two Skeleton Lizards trailed. Their escape directions differed and their routes were winding and twisting.

However, when observed from above, it became evident that they all ended up ar rhe same location the sand dune where the ambush had been set.

In this game of cat-and-mouse, it didnt take long for them to venture beyond the sensing reach of the other skeleton creatures. With their targets lost, they hesitated and lingered in their initial positions.

On top of the sand dune:

Watching rhe sand consistently rise in arcs behind rhe Self-Detonating Water Spiders in the distance, Ji Chen s confidence solidified. He signaled to Alice that the moment had come to act.

Alice nodded and stood at rhe forefront of the sand dune.

Soon, rhe fifty Self-Detonating Water Spiders converged from various directions and sprinted up rhe sand dune, splitting apart from both sides of the army.

Not far behind, hundreds of Skeleton Lizards suddenly leaped out of the sand, raising a cloud of dust and accompanied by a gust of foul wind.

The timing was perfect!

Alice was already a Purple-Rare Tier and had reached the impressive level of 28. Dealing with these Tier 4 beginner-level Skeleton Lizards was not just easy, bur also a walk in the park.

As her song resounded, these ma.s.sive creatures that had been fierce just a second ago turned into well-behaved little dogs rhe next second, crawling quietly on the slope. If they had tongues, they might have stuck them out to please their owner, just like a pet dog.

Seeing the mission to lure rhe monsters completed perfectly, Ji Chen wasted no time and immediately ordered rhe army to eliminate these Skeleton Lizards one by one.

Because of their unique method of control, the Skeleton Clan was among rhe few races that Alice couldnt easily manipulate to betray their own kind. As long as the opposing higher-ranked Skeleton wasnt more advanced than her, she could, at best, render them immobile. Yer, she couldnt outright take control away from them.

So, luring them our one by one for elimination is the best choice.

Ding- You have killed 106 Skeleton Lizards, gaining 52,520 experience points. Current experience: Level 28 [5%/ioo%|.

Another tens of thousands of experience points were added to his account, causing the just-leveled-up experience bar to fill up a bit more.

Ji Chen was in high spirits.

Dealing with these Skeleton Lizards meant the skeleton camp nearby didnt hold much significance for him anymore.

For him now, as long as the quant.i.ty of these low-tier, low-level skeleton monsters didnt exceed a certain threshold, handling them was just a matter of time.

The army set our once again, returning to the stone foresr and launching a direct attack.

After a few hours:

Having eliminated the numerous skeleton creatures that had been lurking around the perimeter, rhe group proceeded to enter the stone forest.

When rhey emerged, Ji Chens backpack held a low-level bone forge and two white Heroic Soul Essences. The smile on his face hadnt faded.

Why did it seem as if acquiring heroes was such an effortless task?

In the blink of an eye, the Crown of the Ocean could welcome two more white heroes.

Its like a wholesale of heroes!

In high spirits, he led the army out of the stone forest and headed towards the red desert, continuing to search for rhe next skeleton camp.

Little did he know, rhe Skeleton King, thousands of miles away, had already taken notice of the events at the two skeleton camps.

A colossal ancient castle built against the mountainside, towering on a cliffs precipice.

This was the supreme ent.i.ty within the entire mystic realm, the residence of the being to whom all skeleton monsters pledged their allegiance -the Skeleton King.

In the dimly lit hall:

The hoa.r.s.e voice of the Skeleton King echoed.

Yesterday and today, two iow-level skeleton camps located in the Red Deserr region lost contact one after the other. Can someone tell me what happened there?

A skeletal commander kneeling on the ground with a staff in hand spoke, Reporting to our king, its currently unclear what has happened, but perhaps its just a temporary interruption.

But what if the few Skeleton Commanders stationed there also losr contact simultaneously?

This The skeletal mage commanders heart slopped a beat, and the flicker of the soul fire in its eyes trembled.

If rhe Skeleton Commanders had lost contact with the lung, didnt that mean they had fallen?
