I, the Necromancer, will crush the gods!

Chapter 19: Either Don't Do It, or Do It Thoroughly

Not only were the mages, knights, and archers dumbfounded, but Lin Cai'er was also stunned.

With wide eyes and an open mouth, she couldn't believe it.

The scene before her eyes was incredibly shocking, and her slightly open mouth was quite adorable.

She had seen Jiang Chen's skeleton warrior before, and at that time she only thought Jiang Chen was an ordinary summoner.

The skeleton warrior, only level 10, was covered in cracks, and his weapon was broken and tattered.

It looked frail and about to collapse.

Lin Cai'er never imagined that such a summon could be so powerful. The enemy mage's level 20 skill couldn't even scratch it, not even a single hair...

It's truly unbelievable that neither the archer's triple arrows nor the knight's charged charge could harm it.

Is this really a level 10 summon? It's ridiculously powerful; everyone is starting to doubt their eyes.

Even a summoner couldn't possibly summon more than 40 creatures at once...

Clusters of firelight ignited in the darkness, and skeleton warriors appeared silently, surrounding them completely.

Surrounded by a group of skeleton warriors, Jiang Chen's eyes were cold, as if the Grim Reaper had descended to earth.

Jiang Chen didn't say much. He walked back to Lin Cai'er's side, his eyes filled with undisguised killing intent.

He immediately issued the command to the skeleton warrior.

With a thought, the skeleton warrior immediately began to move. The mage's expression changed drastically; he shook his staff, and a protective shield appeared around him, attempting to shield himself.

Energy shield is a mage's signature skill.

The higher the mage's level, the stronger their skills, and the more robust their energy shield becomes.

It is said that those god-level mages can remain unharmed from forbidden spells by maintaining their protective shields.

It is the mage's most relied-upon survival skill, as mages themselves have low agility and slow movement speed.

Unlike agile classes such as archers and assassins, their weakness lies in speed.

Moreover, now that he's surrounded by skeleton warriors, he has no room to dodge.

After summoning the protective shield, the mage felt a little relieved, but what happened next almost scared him out of his wits.

The skeleton warrior swung his sword, bringing it crashing down so hard that the energy shield distorted violently. The mage's expression changed drastically; he couldn't believe his eyes. The skeleton warrior had only struck once, yet it had such terrifying destructive power.

What attributes do these skeletons have that make their attack power so terrifying?

There was no time for him to think further; the second skeleton warrior's blade fell, and the mage felt his heart about to stop beating.

A muffled cracking sound!

The mage's energy shield shattered instantly, dissipating into countless points of starlight.

He gritted his teeth and continued to raise his staff.

Resist the ring of fire!

The mage unleashed another skill, a massive fire ring erupted, instantly pushing several approaching skeletons more than ten meters away.

Before the mage could even rejoice, he sensed a dark shadow flit by, and two skeletons leaped above his head. He never had another chance to use his skills.

A sharp flash of light appeared, and the mage's head flew into the air.

The mage died in just two seconds.

Not only the mages, but even the archers were being chased by the skeleton warriors and looked extremely disheveled.

In a matter of seconds, the skeleton warrior, ruthless and having witnessed the mage's death, was filled with terror in his eyes.

He was much more agile than the mage, but compared to the skeleton warrior with an agility of 3000 points, his agility was completely insignificant.

He kept using his dodge skill to try to escape the encirclement of the skeleton warriors.

Unfortunately, all his efforts ultimately came to naught.

The skeleton warriors pressed forward relentlessly, leaving the archers with less and less room to maneuver.

Compared to the dead mage and the dying archer, the knight was in a slightly better situation.

He repeatedly activated his charge skill, and an energy shield appeared around his body.

This layer of light appeared to be even stronger than the mage's energy shield, protecting him completely.

The skeleton warrior's blade struck him, only scattering sparks but causing no real damage.

Jiang Chen narrowed his eyes, recognizing it as a skill called Ultimate Defense, one of the Knight's core skills.

Once activated, its defensive capabilities will become extremely strong in a short period of time.

It's unknown exactly how strong it is, but some people have tested it. A level 20 knight using ultimate defense can withstand an attack from a level 40 mage.

Although it can only withstand one hit, it is enough to show how strong the ultimate defense skill is.

The knight's defensive capabilities have increased significantly at this point. A knight who has mastered ultimate defense and a knight who has not mastered ultimate defense are like two different professions.

However, Extreme Defense is not a skill that is easy to learn. Without the corresponding skill book, it can only be learned using skill scrolls. It seems that this knight is quite lucky.

At this point, the knight no longer cared about fighting and began to flee for his life like a madman.

A scream came from behind him, and he knew the archer was dead too.

The deaths of the mage and the archer terrified him.

These skeleton warriors were so terrifying; they scared him half to death.

He shouldn't have come. He almost lost his life for a mid-level skill scroll. This deal was a complete loss.

Jiang Chen had an idea; he couldn't let the knight escape, so he gave the skeleton warrior the order to use his skill.

He couldn't let the knight escape; since he was already dead, he might as well finish him off. A red light simultaneously emanated from the skeleton warrior's blade.

A ferocious strike!

Deals damage equal to 200% of the user's own strength to the target.

Keep in mind that the current Skeleton Warrior has a total of 3000 points in all four stats.

The skeleton warrior, with a strength of 3000, doubles its damage after using its skill.

The knight was terrified. Skeleton warriors were scary enough, but to have them use skills was simply outrageous.

The greatsword, flashing red light, struck the knight.

Ahhhhh!

The white light emanating from the knight dimmed considerably.

Then the second, then the third.

The ultimate defense lasts for 1 minute, assuming no attack.

The more intense the attack, the shorter the duration of the ultimate defense.

Furthermore, the knights' lack of fighting spirit has resulted in the extreme defense not being very effective.

Dozens of skeleton warriors rushed forward and unleashed their skills, rapidly shortening the duration of the ultimate defense.

Moreover, more skeleton warriors had surrounded them, cutting off the knight's retreat.

Finally, the knight, filled with resentment, was dismembered into several parts by the skeleton warrior.

Either don’t do it or never do it.

"This is?"

Lin Cai'er still hasn't realized what's happening.

The entire battle lasted only a few dozen seconds from start to finish.

Jiang Chen didn't move an inch; he just stood there.

After the three people died, a lot of things fell to the ground.

When a professional dies, the items in their storage space will fall out.

The skeleton warriors retrieved them all.
