Kill or Subdue? This Was a Problem

It was hunting.

Naturally, it would not reject more prey, especially Bruce!

Although there was no verbal communication between them, Bruce could feel that he was the target of the advanced skeleton.

Perhaps he really was.

In the eyes of the advanced skeleton, he, who was much stronger than ordinary skeleton soldiers, was an exceptionally strong and nutritious vegetable!

So was Bruce's target not this advanced skeleton as well?

When the advanced skeleton rushed over, Bruce thought of something. His 30 skeleton soldiers rushed towards the advanced skeleton as if they were not afraid of death.

Bruce himself blended in with the skeleton army and charged with them.

The skeletons were very fast.

In a few breaths' time, the advanced skeleton had crossed over a hundred meters and appeared in front of Bruce and the others.

Then, the heavy double-handed greatsword was raised high and swept out!

Boom!

Crash!

It was just a single strike. The skeleton soldier at the front of the charge was torn apart and turned into a broken skeleton. He was tossed up and fell from the sky! The two skeleton soldiers that were following closely behind were also affected and were cut in half from the waist.

Although they did not die, they had lost their combat ability.

One strike had crippled Bruce's three skeleton soldiers that were not necessarily low-level soldiers. This was the suppression that advanced skeletons brought when they surpassed the skeleton soldiers in terms of level and rank!

The advanced skeletons were charging forward. They wanted to kill all the skeleton soldiers that were blocking in front and go straight for Bruce.

Bruce was not idle either.

He let the other two skeleton soldiers block in front of him. He took a step forward and appeared at the side of the advanced skeleton. The skeleton broadsword in his hand carried all the strength in his body. It drew a cold light and slashed towards one of the leg bones of the advanced skeleton!

Dong!

A dull sound that sounded like chopping wood rang in the air.

Taking advantage of the opportunity when the advanced skeleton slashed out and did not have time to defend himself, the skeleton broadsword in Bruce's hand ruthlessly slashed onto one of the leg bones of the advanced skeleton.

Bone powder scattered in all directions.

A huge gap appeared on the leg bone, which was more than one-third of the thick leg bone!

The advanced skeleton was furious.

Ignoring the two skeleton soldiers who had already rushed in front of it, it waved the broadsword in its hand and directly chopped at Bruce.

Clang!

An ear-piercing sound of metal colliding rang out.

Bruce used the skeleton broadsword to block this attack of the advanced skeleton.

His body swayed slightly, and his two feet sank deep into the soil. The broadsword in his hand blocked the two-handed broadsword, and a small gap appeared where the two-handed broadsword had struck.

Then, Bruce laughed.

In this short exchange, he had roughly estimated the combat skill and strength of the advanced skeleton.

Strength attribute—there was at least a 5-point difference between him and this advanced skeleton.

Speed attribute—he had a slight advantage.

Constitution attribute—from the degree of damage of the skeleton equipment, this advanced skeleton was stronger than him, but its strength was extremely limited.

Combining the above points., Bruce came up with a summary.

Even if it was a one-on-one fight, Bruce would be able to contend with this advanced skeleton for a long time. Not to mention that he had nearly thirty skeleton soldiers with him.

He wanted this advanced skeleton's class template

With a thought, he split the remaining twenty-seven skeleton soldiers into five and went to entangle more than ten skeleton soldiers brought by this advanced skeleton. Bruce let the remaining twenty-two skeleton soldiers surround the advanced skeleton soldiers.

Attack?

No!

With a difference of nearly twice the vitality, even if the weapons of these skeleton soldiers could inflict damage on the advanced skeleton, it would be extremely limited.

Their function was to block the attacks of the advanced skeleton!

Bruce's voice was cold. The twenty-two skeleton soldiers threw away the weapons in their hands. They leaped into the air and pounced toward the advanced skeleton!

Boom!

Crash! 

Their slender and pale fingers were stuck in the gaps of the bones of the advanced skeleton. Their bodies were even smaller than that of the advanced skeleton, and they also covered the tall and strong bodies of the advanced skeleton.

The power of the two-handed Greatsword was extraordinary.

Even Bruce would not dare to easily deal with it.

However, when it was waved, it was a weapon. When it was still, it was not even worth a piece of broken bones on the ground!

Any skeleton soldier, especially an evolved skeleton, could easily break free.

When the number of skeleton soldiers reached five, ten, or fifteen, Bruce had already quietly appeared behind the advanced skeleton.

At this time, the advanced skeleton was like a Hercules that was tied up by countless ropes. Even if it was very strong, it couldn't resist the trap. Being restricted by a large number of skeleton soldiers, it could not even swing the two-handed greatsword in its hand!

At this time, Bruce had already quietly appeared behind the advanced skeleton.

Bruce looked at the skeleton soldier's head and saw that it was struggling. Bruce slowly raised the skeleton broadsword in his hand and used all the strength in his body to ruthlessly chop down.

Dong!

Dong!

Dong!

With each chop, the body of the advanced skeleton would violently tremble.

After the skeleton broadsword chopped down with all its strength three times in a row, the thick neck of the advanced skeleton was finally cut off. The head, which was the absolute core of the advanced skeleton, was also sent flying!

The battle had ended.

"Kill them."

With a command, Bruce's underlings attacked the remaining skeleton soldiers brought by the advanced skeleton. Bruce walked to the front of the skull.

It really was an advanced skeleton.

The skull on the ground was still moving and making creaking sounds. Bruce was a little stunned.

He was thinking about whether he should kill the advanced skeleton or subdue it.

Killing this advanced skeleton would allow him to gain a lot of experience points.

Using [ devour ] to absorb the bones left behind by the advanced skeleton, he would also be able to obtain the class template of this skeleton and a lot of attribute points.

From the attributes displayed by this advanced skeleton, it was likely that after obtaining the class template, Bruce would be able to immediately change his class. From a skeleton soldier, he would be classified as a higher-level existence!

There were many benefits.

As for subduing, the biggest benefit was that he would be able to obtain a powerful combat strength immediately!

With the first advanced skeleton underling, when he faced the second advanced skeleton, he would not need to expend as much effort as he did this time. After subduing the second advanced skeleton, subduing the third advanced skeleton would be even easier.

The cycle continued.

Perhaps in a few days, Bruce would be able to replace his little brother from a Tier 1 (basic rank) skeleton soldier to a Tier 2 (advanced rank) advanced skeleton!

He thought about it silently.

'Kill...or subdue?'

He thought about it silently.

Bruce picked up the skeleton head.

[ devour ] was activated. A power from his heart began to surge out and devour the advanced skeleton's head.

In the end, Bruce still chose to enslave the advanced skeleton!

The higher Bruce's level and rank, the shorter the time needed for the fury skeleton to be enslaved. The higher the level and rank of the skeleton, the longer the time needed to be enslaved.

In summary, the time he spent to enslave the advanced skeleton was not much longer than the first time he enslaved his first skeleton soldier.

One minute had passed.

When the advanced skeleton stopped struggling, the system notification sounded in Bruce's mind at the right time.

—

"You have obtained control of the Skeleton Warrior."

"You have enslaved the Skeleton Warrior.".

"You can rename the Skeleton Warrior."

"You have obtained the class change information of the advanced class template, Skeleton Warrior."
