Chapter 7: Exposed!

[Ding, Physique +1]

[Acquired skill, Water Magic lv1]

[Unlocked new evolutionary path] [Low-level ocean skeleton]

[Low-level Ocean Skeleton] [Skeleton in the ocean with the ability to manipulate water currents]

It's good to be alive.

Seeing Eric lying on the ground without any change, Lucia's expression changed from anticipation back to disappointment.

A bit angry, she even went up and kicked him, shouting "Next".

Eric got back up off the ground and wandered around.

Gloating at the fancy death of his new batch of coworkers and skill banks.

I have to say, when out of danger watching other skeletons die is not a less interesting activity.

Damn it, he had become a pervert.

Just transformed into a skeleton, and was captured in the skeleton nest, see skeletons do not dare to go out.

I didn't expect that now I have this appearance.

Could this be the fall?

It seems that "the dragon-slaying boy, eventually became an evil dragon."

Sent away a new group of colleagues, those chimera looking into his eyes were not right.

Eric lamented while saying, "Lucky Skull blessed me to be promoted to a mid-ranked chimera."

"Lucky Skull blesses me with high-level equipment next time I go out."

Well, the second one was Eric's wish.

Damn it, you're starting to fantasize.

These chimera seriously hindered Eric from "caring" for his colleagues, and Eric waited until Lucia came back before he was able to level up to level 6 and get the free attribute points he needed to save his life.

Eric's [Physique] has already reached 11 points and has already met the requirements for evolution, but his [Strength] is only 5 points.

He was severely biased.

This time, it was undoubtedly the earth attribute experiment.

Eric's prepared skills were [Earth Resistance] [Toughness] [Hard Bones] [Self-Healing].

Lucia once again picked Eric out of the skeleton pile and released the magic.

"Deteriorate."

This time, it was the skill that most restrained the skeletons.

Deteriorating disintegrating bones with clay was quite a restraining skill for the Skeleton species that always carried the [Bone Deterioration] status.

However, Eric who had 11 points of [Physique] and held [Earth Resistance] calmly carried through the deterioration.

This time, the earth attribute crystal was already the size of a pigeon egg.

In an instant, Eric was wrapped in earth-colored flames, and his bones disintegrated layer by layer into dirt.

At this moment, Eric felt like he had rejoined the earth, turning into the sleeping remains of the earth.

The body continued to decay and merge into the earth.

Not only the disintegration of the body but also the disintegration of the consciousness.

"What a danger."

Eric inwardly lamented.

If it was before, when he encountered the earth attribute that restrained the skeleton, I'm afraid it would be dangerous.

But for the current Eric, this kind of attribute crystal could not pose a threat to him anymore.

He didn't even need to add points to his physique to make it through.

He was now a tank-type skeleton!

[Ding, constitution +1]

[Acquired skill, Earth Magic lv1]

[Unlocked new evolution path] [Low-level Earth Skeleton]

[Low-level Earth Skeleton] A skeleton born from the earth, with bones as hard as rock, manipulating the power of earth and rock, level cap lv25.

Shaking away the dirt on his body, Eric ignored Lucia's disappointed look and continued wandering.

What a good demon, coming up and giving himself a whole set of elemental skills, could be considered an angel investor on his path to a prison break.

He would make sure to make her death easier in the future.

Although the result was good, this demon was a song holding the idea of getting himself killed right.

Then, this fourth batch of coworkers also passed away one after another.

Now there was only one super skeleton left who had survived the four rounds of experiments, Eric.

Then, Eric was released.

To be honest, Eric was still a bit reluctant to part with it.

Western attribute magic, he still had wind magic that he hadn't acquired, and he was looking forward to it.

Before leaving, Eric's knucklebone was also gripped by a group of chimera.

It was said that one chimera, the finger bone of a lucky skeleton, had a lucky bonus.

Under the supervision of Principal Lucia Pound, Eric, who had returned from the Phantom Academy, was full of confidence.

Now he had the confidence to achieve a descending blow against these foolish kind.

He nimbly changed himself into a full set of divine armor.

[Swiftness lv1] right leg, [Tiptoe lv1] left leg, [Swordsmanship lv1] right arm, [Mega Strength lv1] left arm.

Especially the right arm with [Swordsmanship].

It was a super rare item, and with so many low-level skeletons in Pound, Eric had come across just one.

After gaining the [Sword Art] skill, there was even a new evolution path and profession.

[Low-ranked Skeleton Swordsman] Skeleton that drives a sword, able to perform sword skills, a rather dangerous skeleton, level cap lv20.

[Swordsman] Warrior profession, able to learn powerful sword skills.

Now he can walk sideways in the low-level skeletons.

Hibernation, strength, timing.

Eric has not forgotten these three points.

The time has already appeared, if there is no accident, in less than twenty days, there will be a group of guys to crusade against Pound.

He, on the other hand, would have to carefully hibernate in these less than twenty days, raise his level, and gain power.

And then seize the moment.

A week of hunting had raised Eric's level to lv7.

After all, this was Pound's territory, and now there were more intelligent species of chimera roaming around, he didn't dare to kill more skeletons at once, he could only keep the number of two or three a day and take his time.

Today, he locked on to a lv10 full-ranked low-level skeleton.

After all, the level cap of low-ranking skeletons is only lv1, and then upwards is the middle-ranking skeletons.

Skeletons of lv10, Eric had hunted quite a few of them now.

Bone changed into claws and pinched the neck, earth magic quickly deteriorated the cervical vertebrae and then pinched it off.

Water magic first connected and poured into the skull, annihilating the soul fire.

Fire magic thwarted the bones, a set of lines that could be described as art.

If there were judges here, they would raise the 10-point scoreboard without hesitation.

[Ding, killed low-rank skeleton, experience +100]

One step closer to lv8.

Eric activated [Creep] and carefully searched for the next skeleton.

Today's luck was good, it didn't take long to find the first Skeleton that fell alone, maybe we can set a new hunting record tonight.

Carefully, he finds a place where there are fewer skeletons to roam.

Soon enough, Eric found a single skeleton again.

Lucky.

Eric touched over and didn't wait for this skeleton to fall asleep.

He now had the confidence to forcefully kill without attracting anyone's attention.

[Creeping] Carefully approaching.

The bones in several fingertips of his right hand slowly grew and turned into sharp claws.

[Mega Force] erupted and slammed hard into the back of the skeleton's head.

The soul fire in its eye sockets could be seen shaking, and a stiff head was added to the status bar.

Not to be allowed to fall, Eric quickly closed in and snapped his bone claws into both of the skeleton's eye sockets viciously.

"Incinerate."

The ghostly blue flames burned crazily in the pitch-black night, invading the skeleton's eye sockets and devouring the soul fire.

[Ding, killed low-ranked skeleton, experience +9.]

From start to finish, it barely made a sound.

Eric carefully put down the skeleton and was about to unleash earth magic to sink the skeleton into the ground.

But the next moment, a petite figure fell from the sky.

Dark bat wings, goat horns, and a slender tail covered in fine scales.

It was the chimera.

[Name] Tris Lucia Pound Hewitt

[Race] Low-ranked Demon

[Rank] lv14/lv20

[Profession] Dark Mage.

[Description] An assassin mage who hides in the darkness, a low-level demon capable of driving the dark power of the shadows, you wouldn't want to be targeted by him, or no night would ever be a restful sleep

"It's you."

The chimera spoke.

Eric sprinted without hesitation, and a rib continued to wriggle and grow, transforming into a sharp bone sword.

Then, with his right hand, he broke off the rib and stabbed the chimera.

"You have intelligence!"

Tris was creeped out for a moment.

She recognized this skeleton, the one that saw her connect with her master that night.

He possessed intelligence!
