Chapter 238: Conquering the Intermediate-Grade Skeleton Camp: King Solin of the Skeletons

A more intense battle erupted on the narrow path.

Blood splattered on the elongated road, and broken bones fell into the mud.

Both sides, one aiming to capture the camp and the other to defend it, had deployed their elite warriors, engaging in a fierce clash.

This was a war between races.

There was no compromise or retreat.

Only the victorious side would stand at the end.

The Naga Berserkers displayed immense strength, each strike causing enemies to either die or be severely injured.

Dragon Blood Murlocs interwove within the gaps, using their Dragon Aura ability to affect the skeleton creatures.

These skeletons, whose life tiers were nearly at the bottom, trembled uncontrollably under the influence of the Dragon Aura. Their combat prowess was almost nonexistent.

Only a few of the mid to high-tier skeletons managed to resist to some extent, but their combat strength had also greatly diminished.

Protected by Naga Berserkers and Dragon Blood Murlocs, Elemental Sea Pixies had the opportunity to unleash all their da mage-dealing potential, releasing surges of magical energy that didn’t cease.

While clearing the path of skeleton creatures, they also relentlessly attacked the bone walls.

Under this furious onslaught, the cracks on the city wall spread like a spider web, pieces of it broke off and sank into the mud, revealing several large gaps.

In terms of numbers, the skeletons clearly outnumbered Ji Chen’s group.

Within this intermediate skeleton camp, there were at least a hundred thousand skeleton creatures of various sizes, and there were also a considerable number of high-tier ones. If they were to surge forward, they would still pose a threat.

However, Ji Chen’s group had already taken the initiative to block the camp s only entrance and exit. On the narrow road of just a few dozen meters wide, the skeleton side couldn’t fully utilize their numerical advantage.

The massive sea of skeletons inside the camp was like a reservoir with a tightened faucet. Only a trickle of skeletons could flow out each time.

The defensive line formed by Naga Berserkers, Dragon Blood Murlocs, and other units was akin to a reaping machine with spinning blades. It harvested the approaching skeleton creatures one by one, leaving none to pass.

The death of skeleton creatures brought about a continuous stream of experience points.

An ordinary skeleton creature might give a few or even just one experience point, but with enough of them, it piled up: hundreds of creatures gave hundreds of experience, thousands gave thousands, and tens of thousands amounted to tens of thousands of experience.

Watching the skeleton side struggling to break out of the camp and being soundly beaten inside, Ji Chen’s worries eased. As he observed the steadily increasing experience bar, his mood improved even further.

This time, they had truly come to the right place. Continuing like this not only ensured steady leveling up but also promised them a secure gain of an intermediate-grade bone forge. A guaranteed profit!

Just as the battle raged on, the situation on the battlefield suddenly changed.

The Elemental Sea Pixies had bombarded the bone walls, leaving them in ruins. The walls had holes all over, and in some sections, they had completely collapsed, revealing the surge of skeleton creatures behind the walls.

Seeing that they had already sent thousands of skeleton creatures, but they couldn’t break through the blockade and obstruction, the skeleton commander of the camp was growing impatient. When it spotted the collapsing gaps in the walls, it suddenly thought of a solution.

Immediately, they drove the low-tier skeleton creatures to jump out through the gaps, sinking directly into the mud pool.

One by one, the low-tier skeleton creatures jumped into the mud pool like dumplings, their struggles barely visible before they were swallowed and engulfed by the swamp, disappearing into the marsh.

This scene left Ji Chen stunned.

What were they trying to do?

Could it be that they lost their minds from the beating and were so ashamed that they chose suicide?

Ji Chen looked puzzled until he noticed a mud pool near the edge of the city wall gradually being filled by the bodies of the skeleton creatures. Then, it dawned on him.

They’re reclaiming land from the sea!

They were freaking genius!

Low-tier skeleton creatures were essentially cannon fodder, and using them to fill the mud pool was a perfect idea.

One after another, skeleton creatures recklessly jumped into the mud pool, gradually building bone bridges within the swamp that connected to the outer land.

To construct this several meters wide bone bridge, at least one or two thousand skeleton creatures had been sacrificed. However, with the skeleton army numbering in the tens of thousands, this was merely a drop in the bucket.

Once the bridges were completed, a large number of skeleton creatures rushed out along the bone bridges.

Ji Chen couldn’t disregard the situation, so he dispatched multiple squads of soldiers to intercept them.

The skeleton commander decisively ordered the construction of more bridges. After all, low-tier skeleton creatures were the least valuable, and as long as they could contribute some value, it wouldn’t matter even if they all died.

Under the continuous sacrifice of skeleton creatures, a dozen or so bone bridges were built, and the skeleton creatures inside the camp poured out like a long white dragon.

At first, they could still hold them off, but as more and more bone bridges were constructed, numerous skeleton creatures surged out, forming a dense mass charging forward.

Seeing this, Ji Chen’s expression became more serious.

With a wave of his hand, he dispatched Daro and the Half-Orc to engage.

At the same time, he ordered the army to advance.

Since they couldn’t continue to smoothly grind experience points, they decided to go for the kill and take out the skeleton commander.

Naga Berserkers advanced without hesitation, slaughtering countless skeletons as they approached the camp.

The city gate of the skeleton camp had long been blown to pieces, so they quickly pushed into the camp.

Among the sea of skeletons, Ji Chen’s attention was drawn to a skeleton commander clad in full armor, somewhat similar to Malevolent Wind.

After a quick glance, he confirmed that this was a green-tier monster commander..
