Skeleton Warriors, Space Splitting slash!

Editor: Simple MTL

He had already been enslaving skeleton warriors for quite a while, and Bruce's path of expansion this time was much simpler.

In the beginning, whenever he encountered skeleton warriors, Bruce and his skeleton warriors would work together to cripple them, enslave them, and turn them into a part of his own force.

Gradually, when he had more than enough skeleton warriors, Bruce felt that there was no need to add more.

As an advanced skeleton, although the skeleton battleground wasn't as intelligent, it already had a concept of itself. Its movements also had a certain pattern.

Bruce concluded that most advanced skeletons were entrenched in an area deeper than the skeleton soldiers, who were fighting each other.

Only when the skeleton soldiers were seriously injured or rippled would they leave their own area and head to where the skeleton soldiers were entrenched to harvest and replenish their strength.

After grasping these rules, Bruce's power once again expanded like a snowball!

On the first day, Bruce found five skeleton battlefields.

At the cost of seven skeleton soldiers, he enslaved these five skeleton battlefields and turned them into his underlings.

On the second day, Bruce found three skeleton battlefields and a skeleton archer.

At the cost of four skeleton soldiers, he enslaved the skeleton warriors and skeleton archers. At the same time, Bruce obtained a second class advancement template—one skeleton archer.

On the third day, Bruce found eight skeleton warriors.

At the cost of ten skeleton soldiers, he enslaved all eight skeleton warriors, once again increasing the number of skeleton warriors under his command.

On the fourth day, Bruce found nine skeleton soldiers and a skeleton assassin.

On the fifth day...

On the sixth day...

Soon, a total of seven days had passed!

When Bruce woke up from this continuous killing process, all of his skeleton soldiers under his command had died in battle, but the number of advanced skeletons under his command had reached more than 40!

Among them, there were 39 skeleton soldiers, four skeleton archers, one skeleton assassin, and two skeleton guards.

And now, a skeleton swordsman's head was lying at his feet!

Skeleton Swordsman—this was the advanced class that Bruce had chosen for himself.

There was nothing else in his mind.

This was because the skeleton swordsman's class template had the strongest frontal combat ability, and it was also the most suitable for him.

He bent down.

The grayish-white bone palm covered the skeleton head.

Bruce activated his [ devour ] talent.

When the one-minute period ended, several messages popped up on his status panel.

"You have obtained the control of the skeleton swordsman."

"You have enslaved the skeleton swordsman."

"You can rename the skeleton swordsman."

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

"Finally, I got it," he muttered.

The jaw opened and closed, and Bruce sighed silently. He began to study the class template that he had just obtained.

[ template ] : Skeleton Sword Earth

[ rank ] : Advanced Class template

[ bonus ] : health + 300, strength 5, agility * 3, vitality 5, spirit * 0.1

[ skill ] : space-splitting slash

Space-splitting slash: active skill. Consumes one-third of your stamina and releases an air blade that covers an area of 120, dealing physical damage of strength * 2 + agility * 1 to all enemies within the range.

This was the advanced class that Bruce wanted to obtain for himself, not to mention the fact that his health and attributes were more than one-third of his skeleton soldiers. What Bruce valued the most was the skill that came with this class template, space-splitting slash!

There was no doubt about it.

This was a powerful skill.

Along with his exclusive weapon, skeleton broadsword, and his battle experience as a legendary grand swordmaster in his previous life, the combat power that this skill brought to him far exceeded the amount of damage that was described in the attribute panel!

In addition to that, there was one point worth mentioning.

Just like how spellcasters needed to expend mana points to cast skills, physical classes also needed to expend stamina points to cast skills.

However, this stamina was not in the ordinary sense of stamina, but rather the concept of battle aura.

Just like air splitter, after three consecutive casts, he would not die of exhaustion. Instead, he would enter the skill cooldown state. This state would not affect his normal attacks.

During this process, his stamina would slowly recover according to his constitution. After he recovered to a certain extent, he could continue to cast skills.

For magical classes, their attack style was to release their skills

For physical classes, normal attacks were their main attack style. Any skill could be used as a big move!

"You have obtained the class advancement information of 'Advanced Class Template: Skeleton Swordsman.'"

"Class advancement requirements met."

"Do you want to change class to 'Skeleton Swordsman'?"

When Bruce digested the information in his mind, the system prompt sounded in his mind at the right time.

His jaw slightly opened, as if he was smiling. Bruce did not hesitate and chose to change classes.

[ name ] : Bruce

[ template ] : Advanced Class Template, Skeleton Swordsman

[ level ] : Level 20 (3147/100,000)

[ status ] : health 650, mana 60

[ attributes ] : strength 32, agility 28, vitality 35, spirit 6

[ talent ] : devour (only talent)

[ skill ] : Space Splitter

These were Bruce's current attributes.

Although he could not compare to high-level skeletons like the warrior and lord ranks, he already had the strength to face an elite-ranked skeleton!

Of course, it was just a battle.

If he wanted to win, he would need the help of his 46 advanced skeleton underlings.

After completing his class change, he rested for a while.

Bruce brought his skeleton underlings and continued to go deeper.

Since he already had the strength to hunt elite skeletons, he did not want to waste time around there.

He led his skeleton underlings deeper into the boneyard to enslave an elite skeleton. He repeated the previous strategy and slowly replaced his skeleton underlings with the elite skeleton underlings.

When the number of elite skeleton underlings was enough, he continued to go deeper and hunt the warrior-ranked skeletons.

He kept snowballing.

He would keep pushing forward, until he enslaved a large number of warrior-ranked skeletons in the shortest amount of time, killed the skeleton king, and made himself the lord of the boneyard. Wouldn't that be perfect?

However, this was ultimately just Bruce's fantasy.

When he went deeper into the boneyard and met the first elite skeleton, Bruce discovered that the battle between elite skeletons was far crueler than the battle between advanced skeletons!

If the battle between skeleton soldiers was only a battle between individuals and the battle between advanced skeletons was already a battle between groups, then the battle between elite skeletons was a war.

At this moment, a battle appeared in front of his eyes!

This was a small hilly area.

When Bruce arrived there with his skeleton soldiers, countless pale skeletons appeared at the end of his field of vision!

It was a sea of skeletons!

At a glance, he could tell that there were at least hundreds of skeletons in this sea of skeletons!

Most of the skeletons were skeleton soldiers. Only a few were skeleton warriors. In the center of this sea of skeletons stood a tall skeleton. It was wearing armor, and it was standing there waiting with the gentle breeze.

Seeing this scene, Bruce was a little jealous.

This was the skeleton army!

Compared to the hundreds of skeletons, the 46 skeletons behind him were as shabby as a bathtub beside a pond!

"What we are after is quality! Although we are few in number, we are a great army!"

As he comforted himself, Bruce continued to look into the distance.

There was no doubt about it.

The tall skeleton standing in the middle of the sea of skeletons was the elite advancement of skeleton warriors. It was a skeleton general. Only skeleton generals could command hundreds of skeletons when they were at the elite rank.

Other than the skeleton generals, there were seven or eight advanced skeletons in the sea of skeletons.

The rest were all skeleton soldiers.

Although it was not a very exceptional army, it had a complete range of types.

At a glance, Bruce saw dozens of skeleton soldiers holding bows and arrows. Beside the skeleton general, he even saw two skeleton mages and a skeleton guard!

Bringing hundreds of skeletons there, the skeleton general was naturally not strolling.

In fact, it was clear that it was a war.

However, the enemy of the skeleton general was not another sea of skeletons, but a skeleton himself!
