Chapter 128 You must understand why the undead can become a natural disaster!
These high-ranking skeletons did not make any rash moves. The skeleton knights gripped their bone blades and spears, lurking in the behemoth's blind spots; the skeleton archers quietly took up suitable firing positions, their eerie blue longbows locked firmly against the behemoth's joints.
Relatively vulnerable parts such as the skull.
They awaited Huo Yuhao's command to attack, like venomous snakes poised to strike in the darkness.
The gray-white sea of bones surged forward fearlessly, like a raging tide crashing against the scarlet reef.
The relentless onslaught of skeleton soldiers, their fragile bones tearing deep and shallow wounds into the writhing, blood-soaked body of the Blood Demon Beast. The foul-smelling, viscous blood, mixed with crushed bone fragments, splattered across the greyish-black earth.
The cost was severe.
With each swing of its arm and each stomp of its foot, swathes of skeleton soldiers were reduced to dust by the berserk force, the grayish-white bone dust almost covering the entire battlefield. In a short time, more than half of the 300,000 low-ranking skeleton soldiers who had charged forward had been destroyed! The battlefield was littered with wreckage.
However, Huo Yuhao's gaze remained calm and composed. The three hundred high-level undead he had carefully nurtured were still under his complete control, their auras perfectly concealed within the chaotic remnants of the sea of skeletons, without revealing themselves in the slightest.
Although the dozen or so Blood Demon Beasts had no intelligence and were driven only by savage instincts, the contempt they felt from crushing so many "ants" made their ferocious actions reveal a hint of relaxation.
These annoying skeletons are no match for them!
In that moment of relaxation!
A cold glint flashed in Huo Yuhao's eyes like lightning!
From the seemingly insignificant "ordinary" skeletons that were originally mixed in with the low-ranking skeleton soldiers, suddenly more than a hundred distinctly different, chilling auras erupted! Those were the skeletal knights who had infiltrated!
They no longer hid; their skeletons suddenly expanded, and the heavy bone blades and spears in their hands instantly ignited with chilling death flames, fiercely stabbing into the still-unhealed wounds on the giant beasts' bodies, which had just been created by the low-ranking skeleton soldiers with their lives!
Almost at the same moment!
Whoosh whoosh whoosh—!
Countless eerie blue streaks of light, like deadly will-o'-the-wisps, concealed within the chaotic rain of bone spikes hurled by the low-ranking skeleton soldiers, precisely aimed at the gaping wounds in the flesh! It was the long-awaited, deadly attack of the skeleton archers!
Sizzle! Crack! Bang!
The sounds of flesh being torn apart by sharp weapons, the muffled thuds of bones being shattered by death energy, and the deafening roar of the compressed death energy and icy energy inside arrows exploding violently, instantly intertwined into a symphony of death!
Roar!
A dozen earth-shattering screams of agony erupted almost simultaneously! The bodies of these blood demon beasts stiffened abruptly, then collapsed like mountains stripped of their spines!
The high-level skeletons' sneak attack came too fast and too ruthlessly. The attack from the Dou Wang-level undead, which combined Huo Yuhao's pure death energy and ice element, precisely penetrated their relatively vulnerable interiors!
Those giant beasts at the initial stage of Dou Huang died instantly, and those at the intermediate stage were also severely injured, losing all ability to move. They could only lie in the mud mixed with their own blood and the bone powder of their enemies, emitting dying moans.
As the dust settled, the remaining low-level skeletons, like ghouls drawn by the smell of rotting flesh, along with all the high-level undead, frantically pounced on the fallen behemoth!
Bone blades flashed, like countless white razors, slicing off mountain-sized chunks of flesh, radiating a rich, bloody energy, from those massive, still slightly undulating crimson bodies!
"Truly impressive!" The Mirror of Guardians' voice was filled with amazement, but quickly turned to worry. "However, your undead army has also suffered heavy losses! Soon, the other Blood Fiend behemoths slumbering deep within this area will be awakened by the smell of blood and rush over! There might even be some at the Dou Zong level! What will you do then?"
Huo Yuhao's voice was calm and composed as he looked towards the outer edge of the battlefield: "You'll find out soon enough."
Before the words were finished, at the edge of the battlefield, the spirit towers that had been quietly erected before the war suddenly burst forth with a deep, dark light!
The runes engraved on the Spirit Tower seemed to come alive, greedily absorbing the dense death energy spreading from the heavens and earth and the battlefield. Waves of dark energy, like ripples on the surface of water, quickly spread from the top of the tower, instantly enveloping the entire battlefield!
Buzz!
Huo Yuhao's spiritual clone stood atop a spirit tower, chanting obscure incantations.
As the incantation was performed, the battlefield, which resembled a desert where bone dust had been crushed by giant beasts, and the scattered fragments of broken bones, seemed to be stirred by an invisible giant hand!
They trembled violently, as if summoned, transforming into a storm of grayish-white bone sand that surged into the sky against gravity!
The storm howled and swirled, surging wildly towards the dark energy waves emanating from the spirit tower!
An astonishing scene unfolded: the bone dust and fragments flying everywhere, enveloped by the pure death energy, rapidly reassembled as if time had reversed!
One after another, pale skeletons rose again in the dark energy flow, their gray-black soul flames rekindled in their eye sockets!
In just a few breaths!
The low-level skeleton army, which had been almost completely destroyed and numbered less than tens of thousands, seemed to have been reset, instantly recovering to a size of nearly 300,000! Moreover, their aura seemed to be even more solid than before!
The real loss is less than one-tenth!
"You—you things—" The silver light on the Guardian Mirror froze, the surface trembled slightly, and the voice was filled with incomprehensible shock, "Won't you die?!"
"Normally," Huo Yuhao's voice remained calm, as if stating a simple fact, "such a large-scale resurrection would require a massive amount of death energy and spiritual energy. But the other party—"
He glanced at the dying behemoth on the ground: "These mindless beasts only know how to destroy their bodies, not how to annihilate their spiritual power. Therefore, I only need to replenish enough death energy to bring the skeletons back to life."
He paused, a cold smile seemingly curving his lips: "Moreover, undead creatures are best at using war to sustain war."
The order was given again! The recovered skeleton army, like efficient worker ants, part of them rushed towards the dying behemoths, cutting flesh and blood even more frantically; the other part spread out like a tide, relying on the outer spirit towers at the edge of the battlefield, and began to build more and larger spirit tower clusters!
In a short while, spires made of bones rose from the ground, relieving Huo Yuhao of the mental pressure of controlling these undead legions.
With the addition of the reborn skeleton army, large amounts of scarlet flesh that had been cut off were quickly piled up, emitting a nauseatingly bloody energy.
Huo Yuhao's spiritual clone floated atop the mountain of flesh and blood and began a new incantation!
