Chapter 534: Skeleton Mage!

As the order was given, the guards retreated dozens of meters away with swords and shields.

And in just over ten seconds, a dense crowd of skeleton soldiers had already appeared near the moonlight fruit tree, at least three or four hundred.

Most of the skeleton soldiers rushed towards their group, except for a few dozen or so who were circling around the Moonlight Fruit Tree.

Four or five longbowman-like skeleton soldiers were making bow-and-string movements, trying to shoot the guards in the book.

Unfortunately, although the body of the longbow was not completely rotten, the bowstring was long gone, so the longbow skeleton could not shoot any arrows at all.

And the few guards who were picking the moonlight spirit fruit on the tree also didn't dare to move, and they clung to the trunk of the tree for fear of falling.

"Continue to be careful to pick the Moonlight Spirit Fruit and don't fall down! We'll be back for you later. ”

Seeing the dense crowd of hundreds of skeleton soldiers coming, the Raki and the others quickly discussed and shouted at several guards on the tree.

Although there are some dangers, it seems that they are controllable at the moment, so they are not ready to give up the Moonlight Spirit Fruit, anyway, it is not in conflict with the fact that they will have to rescue a few guards and pick the Spirit Fruit at that time.

The guards over there listened to the orders of Dao Raki and the others, and also found that the skeleton soldiers could not attack them, and immediately began to carefully continue to pick the moonlight spirit fruit.

"Kill!"

The Moonlight Harvest over there continued, and the Skeleton Soldier on their side finally rushed closer, and with a loud shout, they collided with the Skeleton Soldier with their shields.

Although the guards brought by Raki and others are all silver knights and gold knights, this skeleton soldier is actually not weak, not only do they have helmets, armor, and round shields on their bodies, but these are obviously forged by Mithril.

If you don't slash with great force, you won't be able to destroy these skeletons.

"Necromancer is really bullish, I want to learn too!"

After quickly unleashing two large fireballs and eliminating the two skeletons who wanted to sneak up on the guards, Gervais shouted in his heart that the necromancer was mighty.

This is really much tougher than the average human soldier, and Gervais has seen many skeleton soldiers cut off arms and legs, but they are still alive and kicking.

Some even had their wrists cut off and had no weapons, so they stabbed the guards directly with sharp hand bones.

The only way to kill these skeletons is to smash their heads, or cut them off, because the source of the skeletons' energy is the green flame in their eyes, and they will not die until the green flame is extinguished.

These skeletons are not afraid of death, and there are many of them, as long as they are equipped with excellent weapons and armor, Gervais feels that they can crush the elite legions of the great nobles in Eurasia.

"Purify the Light!"

At this moment, Adella, a beautiful rich woman, also caught the attention of Gervais.

Because Adele's Holy Light skill is too effective against skeletons.

Gervais's large fireball can only be destroyed by exploding to hit the target.

But Adella's holy light purification is different, a beam of holy light can penetrate two or three skeleton soldiers.

Although the appearance of these skeleton soldiers who were hit by the holy light was intact, the faint green light in their eyes would immediately dissipate, and then the entire skeleton soldiers would fall apart, and the helmets and armor on their bodies would fall to the ground and make a clanging sound.

"They've retreated!"

The fierce battle lasted for more than a minute, and Gervais and his side paid for the death of two guards, and the serious wounding of seven or eight guards took the lives of most of the skeleton soldiers.

Originally, everyone wanted to kill these skeleton soldiers in one go, but they didn't expect that the skeleton soldiers who were originally not afraid of death actually began to retreat.

"Chase, the person who killed us wants to run, but there is no door!"

"Kill! Don't let them run! ”

When Ratchey, DeWeil and the others saw the skeleton soldiers fleeing, they immediately shouted fiercer and fiercer, for fear that Adella would not know their bravery.

Adella, on the other hand, frowned slightly, did not say anything to stop her, and also followed behind.

Although she didn't know why these skeleton soldiers suddenly fled, this place was two or three hundred years old, and the owner of the Wizard's Tower should have died long ago, so she wasn't worried about any fraud.

The skeletons stopped when they retreated to the bottom of the Moonlight Fruit Tree, as if they had come here specifically to join the dozens of remaining skeletons.

After the skeleton soldiers stopped, Rakchi and the others had already chased after them, and then the two sides fought together again.

Gervais and the three apprentice mages stood with Adella, more than ten meters away from the battlefield in front of them.

Instead of immediately unleashing their magic to attack the skeleton soldiers, they took control of the field in the rear, which was also the main role of the trainee mage in battle.

Now that the situation is clear, they will not strike if there is no emergency.

Because even if a trainee magician is holding a staff, he can release five or six fireballs is already the limit.

If you want to continue casting, you either drink a mana recovery potion or start meditating to restore mana right away.

Therefore, unless one of the guards is in danger, they will immediately release their magic to rescue them.

The battlefield in front of them attracted everyone's attention, and no one expected that just over four meters behind them, the dirt was slowly protruding.

As the bulge of the dirt grew, a skeletal head suddenly appeared silently in the dirt.

The fire in the eyes of this skull's head turned out to be red, which was noticeably different from those green skeleton soldiers.

After the skull's head was exposed to the ground, he first glanced at Gervais and the others with empty eyes, and found that no one noticed him, and then slowly crawled out with his hands on the ground.

The skeleton soldier with the red flame in his eye socket was not tall, and was significantly shorter than the other skeleton soldiers.

He didn't have any armor on him, except for a staff in the palm of his bony hand.

The staff is made of wood throughout, except for a skull inlay at the top, identical to that brought back by Rakki's two pathfinders.

This is a relatively rare red-bone skeleton, and it is also a skeleton mage.

As the skeleton mage stood still, the red flames in his hollow eyes began to be inexplicable, and the arm holding the staff began to wave regularly.

"Huh? What was that? ”

Gervais was not only a magician, but also a silver knight, so with the wave of the skeleton mage's arm, he immediately noticed the movement.

In addition to the sound of the skeleton mage waving his staff, there were actually many clicking sounds from green skeletons behind him.

Although those green skeletons were scattered and crippled, the green fire in their heads had not been extinguished, and they were still struggling.

Ratch and the others were in a hurry to pursue, so they didn't have time to take care of the battlefield.

At this time, Gervais realized that the sound of bones he heard now was too rhythmic, so he turned to look behind him in confusion.

"Be careful"

When Gervais turned his head, he saw the red mage skeleton holding the staff in his hand, and he was immediately shocked, and reminded Adella and the others loudly.

He really didn't know that skeleton soldiers also had magicians.

At this point, the skeleton mage had finished casting its spell, and in front of it was a fist-sized pale green Netherworld fireball.

And a moment before he shouted caution, the Nether Fireball was already shooting towards them.

When Adela and the others heard Gervais shouting, they subconsciously turned their heads to look, and when they saw the Netherworld Fireball flying, they were immediately startled.

The three apprentice mages were stunned on the spot, apparently not yet reacting.

Adele, on the other hand, tried to dodge because the fireball was shooting at her, but it was clearly too late.

The red skeleton mage clearly has a bit of intelligence, and the light mage is the most hated existence of all dark creatures.

Therefore, this skeleton mage is planning a sneak attack in order to solve Adella, a light magician.
