60、Battle of Harudal City (12)
Zhao Ke, who commanded the skeleton soldiers alone against dozens of ghouls, was only barely supporting at this time, although the number of skeleton soldiers for him to drive was more than twice that of the ghouls, but without the help and support of other companions, Zhao Ke soon fell into the dilemma of fighting alone.
Using 'Summoning Skeletons' to cast the Sea of Skulls is the best tactic of Zhao Ke's 'Cursed Wizard' lineage, but this tactic has a big flaw - no matter how powerful the corpses used to summon skeletons are during their lifetime, they will always only summon skeleton soldiers (this is true for the corpses of humans and humanoid monsters, and those of beast-type monsters that are close to humans in physique can also summon skeleton soldiers, and the rest that are too large or too small will not). Although the attack of the skeleton soldier is good, the defense is very fragile, and it is not even as good as the resistance of ordinary humans. Any enemy with a group attack skill can wipe out a large area of fragile skeletons with a random ultimate. Even if Zhao Ke had raised the 'Summoning Skeletons' skill to the level of Lv2, the summoned skeletons still couldn't resist the ordinary attacks of warriors with a strength level above the intermediate level.
The Sea of Bones tactic, on the other hand, once the number of skeletons summoned does not meet the size requirements, it will become a chicken rib tactic. Although he is only facing ghouls with a second-order strength level, Zhao Ke, who does not have an absolute advantage in numbers, often needs to lose seven or eight skeletons to fight a ghoul when commanding skeleton soldiers to fight, which is not a good situation for the current small number of skeleton soldiers.
Fortunately, Yang Qianyu came to support in time after eliminating the three Setus demons, otherwise it wouldn't be long before Zhao Ke would have become the commander of the light pole because of the annihilation of the summoned skeleton army.
"Good thing you're here." Seeing Yang Qianyu coming to his side, Zhao Ke breathed a sigh of relief.
"Don't be careless!" Yang Qianyu's long stick swept and smashed several ghouls back into the air. "Command your skeleton soldiers to keep up with my movements, and pay attention to replenishing the knife in time!"
"Okay."
Seeing that Zhao Ke made his own arrangements, Yang Qianyu and his horse rushed into the ghouls, and the long stick flew up and down, left and right, and the four or five ghouls who came up around were suddenly beaten one by one. Yang Qianyu was not in love with fighting, and immediately shifted his position to the next target after hitting his opponent with a single blow, and those crippled ghouls were handed over to Zhao Ke's skeleton soldiers to deal with. It is not a problem for ghouls in a good state to single-handedly take on a dozen skeleton soldiers, but after being crippled by Yang Qianyu's heavy hand, their combat power has decreased sharply, and they have all turned into bloody corpses after being stabbed by the skeleton soldiers who surrounded them. Later, under the effect of Zhao Ke's 'Summoning Skeletons' spell, these corpses conjured new skeleton soldiers from them to join the skeleton army, and swung their butcher knives at other ghouls again......
Seeing that Yang Qianyu joined the battle group again, Xue Xiaojing and Guo Qi quickly ended the bickering between the two, and continued to fight with their weapons. After the addition of the two, the pace of the battle was further accelerated, and the battle losses of Zhao Ke's skeleton soldiers were greatly reduced.
"Sure enough, you're a good medicine that will make them both more effective in battle." Zhao Ke leaned towards Yang Qianyu's side, and teased while directing the skeleton army to hunt down the ghouls who were severely injured by Yang Qianyu.
"I'm not going to cure anything." Yang Qianyu looked at Zhao Ke and said.
"Alas—it turns out that even if you are cold and resolute, you can sometimes be as dull as a fool?"
“…… What do you mean? ”
"It's nothing, when I talk to myself......" Zhao Ke shrugged his shoulders and muttered in a low voice, "Recruit envy, jealousy and hate", and continued to focus on commanding the skeleton army under his command. After Yang Qianyu glanced at Zhao Ke with a puzzled expression, he quickly turned his attention to the ghoul in front of him again.
……
After quickly eliminating the enemy in front of them, Yang Qianyu's battle team quickly connected with other crossing companions, and at the same time shared the enemy intelligence obtained through the battle. Several other battle groups had some understanding of their stunts through the battle with the Setters Demon, and after confirming it with the information provided by Yang Qianyu, they immediately found out how suitable they were to defeat their opponents.
Yang Lixue used the 'Summoning Night Stalker' to summon owls that could see through the invisible to act as her eyes, and Shadow Dance Setters' 'Shadow Flash' was a joke in her eyes, and the 'Searing Arrows' fired by the hunting bow in her hand hit the vital points of these Shadow Dance Settes and shot them one by one. Liu Tianyu, who was in the same group as her, wielded a big sword and a furious Setters slammed into a hard death, but the latter was possessed by Wang Xi's 'curse', and he had a violent brute force, but the weapons he wielded frequently missed, and finally Liu Tianyu swung his sword and cut off his arms, and then was sucked dry and turned into a shriveled corpse under the attack of 'Death Entanglement'.

Facing the shadow dance setters who were hiding in the shadow, Chen Zhanying and Mi Zhansong respectively used 'Thunder Strike' and 'War Trampling' to bombard the ground, and the radius of more than ten meters was swept by a strong shock wave, and the affected shadow dance setters appeared one after another. Then Liu Chang waved his hand at the three Shadow Dance Settes, and saw that the three Shadow Dance Settes, who had been dancing with their teeth and claws before, had turned into three lambs, staring blankly and making a 'baa-baa' call. Then these three Shadow Dance Settes, who were forcibly turned into sheep by the Transfiguration Technique (Level Lv1, which turns the target into harmless critters for a short period of time, and the deformed target loses its attack power and moves by half), turned into lamb meat sauce under the wild bombardment of Chen Zhanying's 'Thunder Hammer' and Mi Zhansong's 'Shockwave'. And the one that turned into meat sauce earlier than them was the tragic furious Setus who was stoned to death by the three war bears summoned by Zhao Bin with the 'Summoning Giant Bear'.

Shen Wan raised the divination crystal ball in her hand high, only to see the crystal ball emit a soft silver light and spread into a halo of light and sweep around, and then the two giant wolves with dark purple bodies lying at Shen Huan's feet let out a low roar and pounced on the Shadow Dance Setters who had just been hiding, tearing it to pieces after several tears. Not far away, Shi Jinxin's long sword was drawn from the heart of the other Shadow Dance Setters, allowing the Shadow Dance Settes to accompany his companion who had been killed a few seconds earlier on the way to Hell. And their leader, the berserk Setus, fell asleep on the ground after being caught by Zhang Boyin's 'Sleeping Technique', unaware that his subordinates had already hated Huangquan and that he was about to follow in their footsteps.
