Even with a single drop of blood, I will still be invincible!

The three types of skeletons formed an army and clashed with the skeleton army summoned by Su Mubai.

However, their only advantage is their health; even with the aura of the dead, their stats are still inferior to Su Mubai's skeleton army.

What troubled Su Mubai the most was Reggie himself!

This boss's stats are terrifying; for the first time, Su Mubai felt uncertain about his chances.

The moment the two sides made contact, Reggie cleaved a skeleton warrior with less than half its health in two with a single sword strike.

Su Mubai's expression was solemn. With a wave of his Ink Magic Wand, he summoned two more skeleton warriors to take the lead.

The next test will be whether he can summon faster or Reggie can kill faster!

"This guy's attack power is too high!"

Looking at his mana, Su Mubai frowned.

Although he had just leveled up and regained full mana, at this rate, even if he ran out of mana, he had no hope of killing Reggie.

Just as Su Mubai was deep in thought, a system announcement suddenly sounded, causing his expression to change drastically.

[Hint: The hidden storyline "Reggie's Nightmare" has officially begun. The beginner village protection has been disabled. You will lose 10% of your lifespan upon death, with a minimum loss of ten years.]

!!!

Hidden storylines can even disable the newbie village's protection?!

Upon hearing this, Su Mubai's heart sank, and his expression turned extremely ugly.

I only have one year of life points left, not even enough to cover one deduction.

Furthermore, the exit point for the copy has been closed.

In other words, unless Reggie is eliminated, Su Mubai's journey through the myriad worlds will come to an end!

"Crush them!"

Reggie roared, raising his sword high and stomping down with a heavy stomp.

[Trampled on the dead]!

boom!

The earth trembled, and the skeleton warriors within 30 meters of him instantly lost 50% of their health.

"It's that skill that deducts a percentage of health."

Su Mubai breathed a sigh of relief; thankfully, the skill hadn't been enhanced.

The next moment, Reggie's bone sword flashed with lightning and slashed down.

Thunderous Strike!

boom!

-9527, -10086, -10001...

This attack instantly killed six skeleton warriors.

"Damn it."

Su Mubai frowned and controlled the skeleton army to launch a counterattack.

The skeleton warriors simultaneously unleashed a powerful attack, colliding with Reggie.

The skeleton archers behind him released their bows, but their target wasn't Reggie; instead, it was the 15 skeletons he had summoned.

You have to deal with these troublesome guys first before you can focus on fighting the BOSS.

At the same time, Su Mubai kept retreating, moving away from Reggie's Leap of Death attack range.

Once the two-second cooldown was over, he immediately waved his wand to replenish the skeleton warriors.

Next, he needs to focus on controlling the skeletons at the front lines to buy himself more time.

After reaching level 7, his mental attribute increased to 152 points.

With the addition of the leader's crest attributes, the maximum mana has reached 9560 points.

Using [Summon Skeleton Soldiers] once costs 200 mana.

Even with the addition of the 152 mana points he recovers every five seconds during battle, he can only summon about 70 times at most.

"70 times, which means 140 skeleton warriors."

As he rapidly calculated the answer in his mind, Su Mubai couldn't help but frown.

"Not enough, far from enough!"

After becoming the Skeleton King, Reggie's defense is too high!

Neither the skeleton warriors nor the skeleton archers could inflict much damage on him.

While controlling the skeleton warriors in the front row to dodge and parry Reggie's attacks, Su Mubai was thinking rapidly.

But no matter how he calculated it, the odds of winning this battle were almost zero.

unless……

The skill 【Summon Skeleton Soldiers】has been upgraded to another tier!

My only hope now is that the catastrophic effect of this skill is strong enough!

The effects of the occupational catastrophic traits were still fresh in Su Mubai's mind. Thinking of this, he immediately opened his backpack.

Intermediate Soul Stones x18

One pill adds 120 days to lifespan, so 18 pills would add approximately six years.

However, before upgrading the [Summon Skeleton Soldiers] skill, Su Mubai tried something else first.

[Catastrophe]!

[Target: Intermediate Life Soul Stone]

"Third level!"

[Prompt: Confirm whether to consume 100 years of lifespan to overwrite the previous promotion effect and upgrade the "Primary Life Soul Stone" to a higher grade.]

[Confirmed] (Consumes 100 years of lifespan)

【Cancel】

"Cancel."

Su Mubai has a lifespan of a full hundred years.

Even a ten-year lifespan is now a luxury for him.

This terrifying consumption shows that once the Soul Stone reaches a higher level, the improvement will inevitably be significant.

"Let's first see how long the Cataclysm skill needs to last; hopefully it won't exceed six years!"

With a sigh, Su Mubai activated [Catastrophe] once again.

Objective: Summon skeleton soldiers

[Hint: Please select the promotion rank: Tier 1/Tier 2/Tier 3.]

"Third level!"

[Prompt: Confirm consuming 5 years of your lifespan to overwrite previous enhancement effects and upgrade the "Summon Skeletons" skill to a higher tier.]

【confirm】

【Cancel】

"Cancel."

"Phew, that's enough."

Su Mubai breathed a sigh of relief. He hadn't absorbed the Soul Stone yet, so he naturally had to cancel it first.

He feared that his lifespan would not be long enough because three promotions would add catastrophic characteristics.

It now seems that even with the added Cataclysmic trait, low-level skills don't require a very long lifespan.

Without hesitation, he directly absorbed 15 [Intermediate Life Soul Stones].

The Soul Stone shimmered and transformed into a vibrant green light that merged into Su Mubai's body.

On the attribute panel, the lifespan section immediately changed.

Lifespan: Less than 6 years

Then select [Summon Skeleton Soldiers] again to activate the [Cataclysm] talent.

[Note: After this skill is upgraded to Rank C, three branches will appear: "Summon Skeleton Warriors," "Summon Skeleton Archers," and "Summon Skeleton Mages." Please choose the direction you wish to upgrade.]

"There are branches?"

Su Mubai was slightly taken aback.

At Rank D, you can choose to summon two types of skeletons, but after advancing to Rank C, you can only summon one type.

However, he made his choice quickly.

Facing the terrifying offensive power of Reggie, choosing marksmen or mages is likely to lead to failure; choosing warriors is the safest option.

"Summon Skeleton Warriors!"

The next moment, Su Mubai felt as if something was being drained from his body.

[Warning: You have lost five years of your life.]

Lifespan: Less than 1 years

The skill icons have also changed; the two skulls have gradually merged, forming a skull that is noticeably larger.

The bone sword in the skeleton's hand also changed from a one-handed sword to a two-handed greatsword.

Your F-rank skill "Summon Small Skeletons" has successfully been upgraded to the C-rank skill "Summon Skeleton Warriors".

[Summon Skeleton Warrior]: (C) Level 8, Active Skill, summons a skeleton warrior to fight for you.

Cast time: 3 seconds; Cooldown: 30 seconds; Mana cost: 300.

(The Skeleton Warrior's stats are affected by the player's Spirit attribute.)

The skill retains its previous level, but its mana cost has increased by 50%.

However, what Su Mubai cares about most is the additional catastrophe characteristic.

When his gaze fell upon the Cataclysmic property, a look of ecstatic joy immediately appeared on his face.
