Lords Trying to Survive: Strategizing from a Rundown Yard

Chapter 39: Blood Igniting Demon Skeleton

There was indeed something!

In the execution room, other than the Skeleton Archers summoned by Tasya, there was only this guy.

Although they were all skeletons, this big fellow was emitting a blue glow. It was obviously not something that the two thin Skeleton Archers could compare to.

At this moment, the two Skeleton Archers started shooting arrows.

Bang!

After the twanging sounds of the bowstring, the two arrows shot towards the Blue Glowing Great Skeleton.

At such a close distance, the arrow quickly reached its body.

[-6]

Two pitiful damage values of only a single digit appeared above its head.

“Seems like this guy isn’t easy to deal with.”

Zong Shen raised an eyebrow.

As soon as he finished speaking, the Blue Glowing Skeleton in the execution room also launched a counterattack.

He swung his machete horizontally towards the Skeleton Archer.

[-63]

Two striking damage values appeared.

This was not the end.

When it retracted its blade, it created two bright red flames on the Skeleton Archer’s body.

[-50]

These two flames started to burn on the Skeleton Archer’s wound.

The level 10 Skeleton Archers had 220 health points, so they only had 107 health points left after this attack.

This Blue Glowing Skeleton’s combat power was extremely strong, and the damage it could deal was even greater than the Wolf Cavalry soldiers.

“Colby, cast the net!”

“Tasya, have the Skeleton Archers retreat!”

Zong Shen quickly deployed his troops. Although he was supposed to let the skeleton archers scout the way, he would not allow them to be destroyed so easily.

If they retreated, they could still deal some damage.

Colby didn’t hesitate to grab the net hanging from his lower back and throw it.

It spread out in front of the Blue Glowing Skeleton, covering its head and face.

Casting a net was a skill, it had a forced control effect, and it could not be destroyed.

At the same time, the Skeleton Archers also retreated and left the execution room.

Zong Shen took this opportunity to focus his attention and check the attributes of the Blue Glowing Skeleton.

[Blood Igniting Demon Skeleton Level 16 (Green)]

[Race: Undead]

[Cleave Damage: 61 ~ 64]

[Health Points: 468/480]

[Armor: 30]

[Skill: Heavy Slash (Uses full strength to slash once, dealing 1.5 times the damage. 15% chance to cause damage to equipment and reduces durability to none, Cooldown time: 8 hours), passive skill Burning Blood (Attack has an effect to ignite blood and increase health points, dealing 50 points of one-time fixed damage)]

(The withered Blood Igniting Demon, after countless years of resentment, has transformed his skeleton into an Undead warrior. Be careful of his machete, he will be a formidable opponent for you.)

It was an elite monster, and a very powerful one at that!

With this attribute, he would lose hundreds of Health Points if he was hit by a single slash.

If it had used Heavy Slash, it would be able to severely injure Zong Shen and Iron Pole, the two fragile creatures with less than 200 health points.

At that moment, the control time for Colby’s snare skill ended.

The Blood Igniting Demon Skeleton strode out, its entire body covered in black light armor.

Two balls of dark blue flames were dancing within that demon-horned head.

This was the source of the blue light.

“Arvid, Bjorn, you will take turns using your snare skills to buy us time to retreat.”

“Everyone, try your best to use ranged attacks.”

“Take a roundabout route and move around. Don’t fight head-on!”

After he finished speaking, Zong Shen took the lead and retreated. At the same time, he carried out his battle plan.

Such monsters had high health points, high defense, and high damage output. They definitely could not fight head-on without thinking, or else they would suffer heavy losses.

Hearing Zong Shen’s command, everyone started to retreat. At the same time, Arvidius used his snare skill to bind the demon to the ground for three seconds.

At the same time, as Zong Shen retreated, he and Iron Pole threw the broken and scattered iron bars outside the cell into the middle of the corridor.

The broken iron bars crossed each other and created a temporary roadblock.

Then everyone stopped where they were.

Under the stimulation of a powerful opponent.

Without much command, these soldiers would attack with all their might.

The Wolf Cavalry soldiers began to throw short spears.

[-8]

[-38]

Two short spears stabbed into the light armor.

It only dealt 8 damage.

The other one hit the shoulder blade without armor.

Not only did it deal full damage, but it also penetrated the shoulder blade of the Blood Igniting Demon.

Tasya was also chanting the Dual Necromancer Arrow.

Two black necromancer arrows shot out like black lightning.

They slammed into its chest.

[-75]

[-72]

Two high magic damage beams flashed above its head.

Even though there was a slight fluctuation in Tasya’s magic damage attributes, with the Dual Necromancer Arrow in Level 10, the 1.5 times magic damage was still terrifying.

It simply caused explosive damage.

However, the mana consumption of this move was as high as 40 points, and it would consume one-tenth of Tasya’s mana.

At the same time, the Skeleton Archer was also shooting with all his might.

[-6]

Zong Shen also took out the [Hunting Crossbow].

With the bullseye of the guide module.

He accurately shot out an arrow and hit the eye socket of the Blood Igniting Demon, extinguishing one of the blue flames.

[-59]

[-30]

Zong Shen’s basic Piercing Damage was as high as 51 points, and the bent crossbow provided additional 8 points, dealing a total of 59 points of Piercing Damage.

As for the additional 30 points of damage, it should be related to the dark blue flame that was extinguished.

All the skeletons seemed to have two flames in their eyes.

At this moment, the Blood Igniting Demon Skeleton finally escaped from its 3-second captured state.

However, in just three seconds, everyone had already dealt a huge amount of damage.

At this moment, the Blood Igniting Demon Skeleton only had 178 health points left.

Next, the Wolf Cavalry soldier Björn also used his snare skill.

After enduring a round of attacks, the Blood Igniting Demon Skeleton, who had just regained its mobility, was caught by another net before it could even take two steps.

With control and damage output, it was a perfect strategy!

If the Blood Igniting Demon Skeleton had intelligence and could speak, it would have already started cursing.

Aggrieving! It was too aggrieved!

An elite monster with such powerful attributes was actually being forced into a corner and beaten up.

So far, besides attacking the two cannon fodder archers once in the execution room, it had not hurt Zong Shen and the others at all.

“Don’t move, Tasya! Save your mana!”

“Lads, aim your short spears at it! Concentrate at a location without armor!”

Zong Shen commanded again.

At the same time, he loaded the [Hunting Crossbow].

He aimed at the other eye socket.

“I’ll gouge your dog eyes blind!”

The two Skeleton Archers were also attacking diligently.

Next, a bunch of dazzling damage values appeared.

[-8]

[-38]

[-6]

[-59]

[-23]

The health points of the Blood Igniting Demon Skeleton were instantly depleted, and its bones were scattered all over the ground, turning into several balls of reward light that appeared on the spot.
