Chapter 38: Elite Skeleton Archer
Feeling that abyssal gaze, Layton had been extremely cautious, cautiously wandering the edge of the Grey Valley Ridge. In case of sudden accidents, you can escape back to the Bone Wasteland in time.
In the undead world, each undead lord will have a sense of territory among them, and they are very sensitive to territorial issues. Undead lords are not allowed to enter the territory of other lords at will, otherwise it will be regarded as a cross-border challenge, and often a disagreement is likely to cause a big war between undead lords.
Undead lords are different from low-level undead spirits, they already have wisdom that is not weaker than that of humans, and even some undead lords have wisdom far beyond humans.
Layton remembers that when he was in the Bone Wasteland, he heard an earth-shattering roar from the depths of the Bone Waste. It was inferred that it was at least an undead lord level existence, and it was probably also an overlord in the depths of the Bone Wasteland.
The strength of the Undead Lord is roughly equivalent to that of a human saint-rank powerhouse, and above that is the level of the Twelve Great Emperors.
Leighton wanders the edge of Grey Bone Ridge and continues to look for the Skeletal Shooter. After walking a short distance, he noticed a small group of fifteen skeleton shooters approaching in the distance. It's just that this time it wasn't so lucky, and the other party seemed to have discovered Layton's skeleton team for the first time.
An unusually tragic battle ensued between the two skeleton teams, with the skeleton soldiers bravely rushing forward to attract the opponent's firepower, and more than 20 skeleton warriors focused on protecting the skeleton shooter. The bone arrows in the sky shot back and forth, and it was impossible to distinguish whether it was his own or the enemy's, and occasionally mixed with a huge fire bomb, which was very eye-catching.
With the tactics and precision strikes of the Sea of Bone, the enemy's fifteen skeleton shooters soon fell into the clutches of Layton and became the new undead minions.
More than a hundred skeleton soldiers were lost in this battle, and the skeleton warriors and skeleton shooters in the back were far away, but they were not damaged.
Layton excitedly counted it, and now there are more than thirty skeleton shooters, more than twenty skeleton warriors, and less than a hundred skeleton soldiers, and the strength is not what it used to be.
He sensed that he might have figured out a tactic that specialized in dealing with the ranged undead, the Sea of Bone tactics and precision strikes.
Just as Layton was full of ambition, a roar came from behind, and the eardrums that were vibrating with the sound waves were somewhat out of voice. He hurriedly turned around to find a super-enlarged version of the skeleton shooter five hundred meters behind him.
The enlarged version of the skeleton shooter in front of him was about two heads taller than a normal skeleton shooter, and his body was covered with a thin layer of glowing periosteum, which reflected the cold light. The skeleton is very hideous, and there are two huge bone spurs growing on the shoulder, which are particularly large. Holding a white bone bow taller than a skeleton warrior in his hand, an inky black mist was steaming from the quiver behind his back, and a wave of evil qi was coming at him.
Layton's eyes widened, his expression was stunned, he felt his throat a little dry, and a cold sweat hit him, and he found that it was the elite skeleton shooter mentioned in the "Encyclopedia of Undead Creatures" in front of him.
Between the undead races, there is a certain chance that an elite-level undead will be born, and this kind of undead is a natural king, and can often fight beyond the ranks, and its strength cannot be underestimated.
Before Leighton could react, three huge bone arrows instantly pierced through the skeleton soldiers, and the force was so great that they even strung the seven or eight skeleton soldiers behind them directly together, like a string of sugar gourds.
He was terrified when he saw it, but he didn't expect that the elite-level skeleton archer actually had the ability to scatter and penetrate at the same time, and his power was further enhanced, and his combat power was probably not weaker than that of a fourth-order undead.
The distance between the two sides is about five hundred meters, which is really bad news for Leighton. The opponent is not in the range of the skeleton shooter at all, and the biggest problem at the moment is how to close the distance with the elite skeleton shooter in order to attack better.
After the initial shock, Layton gradually stabilized his mind and began to analyze the tactics of whether to fight or run. There are two treasures obtained from the mysterious dungeon in the space ring, but he really doesn't dare to use them here now. Suddenly, it occurred to him that there was another treasure on his body that had not been used, and now it was just in time.
Layton secretly said to himself: Elite-level skeleton shooters, it is not impossible to successfully subdue them if they let go. This kind of opportunity can be encountered but not sought, how can it be easily let go and do so.
He ordered all the skeleton soldiers to rush forward and feint without fear of death, doing everything in their power to attract the attention of the elite skeleton shooters. Then arrange a team of skeleton warriors and skeleton shooters, run from the other side of the path, quietly go around the back of the attacking elite skeleton shooters, and get as close as possible to the elite skeleton shooters.
Although the Skeleton Soldiers are the weakest race in the undead realm, they are Layton's most loyal undead minions, often playing a huge role in certain critical moments.
Less than a hundred skeleton soldiers in front of them were like cannon fodder, exerting their last light and heat, roaring and running loudly at the elite skeleton shooters, doing everything possible to provoke.
Since the breakthrough in strength, the elite skeleton archer has been favored by the Lord of Gray Bone Ridge and has become a small leader who has been upgraded to Gray Bone Ridge, and he will be subdued and worshiped by the low-level undead when he goes there.
But today, for some reason, the skeleton archer team under his command disappeared from his soul contract one after another. At first, it couldn't sit still, and thought that a powerful opponent had come to its small territory, so it hurried out to look for it. Because he was in a hurry, he didn't even bring the skeleton shooter brother next to him.
Just as a distress signal came from the last team of skeleton shooters nearby, it strode to the scene, but it was still a step too late. But what it didn't expect was that the enemies that eliminated its skeleton shooter team were these low-level first-order skeleton soldiers and some second-order skeleton warriors in front of it, and there were even some skeleton shooters that it had enslaved before, which made it extremely angry.
The strangest thing is that the human in front of him has a vague feeling, and after careful experience, he finds that he is not exactly human, but more with a breath of undead.
By the way, where did those traitor skeleton shooters go? Just as he was about to look for it, suddenly the low-level skeleton soldiers in front of him seemed to be crazy, and kept yelling at him and provoking him, and this was okay.
When had it been subjected to such treatment, it had been provoked by a group of weak skeleton soldiers. Angry on the top of his head, now he just wants to press these unknown skeleton soldiers on the opposite side to the ground and rub them fiercely, so that they understand that the dignity of the leader is inviolable, and now how can he care about looking for the disappeared traitor skeleton shooter.
In the world of the undead, there is an unwritten rule that weak undead generally do not challenge powerful undead, otherwise they will be regarded as provoking the majesty of powerful undead, and the consequences will be to bear the monstrous wrath of the powerful undead and pay the price of the disappearance of the soul fire.
The elite skeleton archer directly pulled the white bone bow more than ten times in one breath, and the bone arrows shot split into three in the air, turning into a rain of arrows, emitting a series of swishing sounds that pierced the air, and shot towards the skeleton soldiers.
The moment the arrow rain fell, the entire skeleton team was directly hit hard, and almost all of them turned into dry bone fragments under the arrow rain, and green soul fragments were spread all over the ground.
Layton was a little stunned when he saw this scene, and his heart was half cold, did he still not succeed?
At this time, at the back of the skeleton team, more than a dozen skeleton soldiers struggled to get up in the rain of arrows, as if they were going to continue to charge and attack, because they received an order to provoke the elite skeleton shooters at all costs, and they faithfully fulfilled this order.
The actions of this group of remnants and weak generals once again succeeded in adding fuel to the anger of the elite skeleton archers.
The elite skeleton shooter couldn't suppress his anger, feeling that his majesty had been trampled on by these skeleton soldiers in turn. A question arises in my mind: Aren't they afraid of perishing? I must give them a taste of the ashes of their bones.
The angry elite skeleton shooter galloped towards the last few skeleton soldiers with a wide stride.
Seeing this, Layton's eyes began to slowly bloom with a hint of brilliance, but he didn't expect to rely on a few skeleton soldiers to successfully lure it over.
The elite skeleton archer rushed in front of the skeleton soldiers, jumped high into the air, and clenched their bone claws into bone fists with both hands falling from the sky, smashing them into a few skeleton soldiers whose souls trembled.
"Boom!" the entire ground was smashed by the bone fist and collapsed, forming a large crater.
The elite skeleton archer was still puzzled, a pair of sharp bone claws waving up and down, left and right, and could only faintly see the remnants of the bone claws.
The skeletons finally completed their mission with honor, bringing the elite skeleton shooters into attack range. At the same time, they have become the target of the elite skeleton shooters, turning into a pile of dry ashes.
Layton knew that the next battle had only really begun, and that victory or failure was in this moment. Forcefully slam the prepared Hellfire Bullet in your hand into the elite skeleton shooter.
With a roar, the elite skeleton archer hastily raised his bone claws to resist, and retreated several large steps in a row before he could stabilize his body.
