Chapter 19: New Skeleton-type Skills Revealed
Chapter 19: New Skeleton-type Skills Revealed
Ye Fan gripped the bladed bow tightly, and the demonic power that had been accumulating within him for so long surged up at this moment, flowing through his veins like volcanic lava and finally converging on his legs.
"A devastating blow!"
Ye Fan roared, his voice echoing throughout the training ground, shaking everyone to their core.
Then, he pushed off with both feet, and his body instantly rose nearly ten meters into the air, as if he had broken free from the constraints of gravity.
"Found you!"
In mid-air, Ye Fan quickly locked onto the "Ark" wrapped in a hooded robe.
Apprentice-level professionals don't yet have the ability to lock onto an aura, so Ye Fan was unsurprisingly deceived by Ark, who was covered in optical camouflage.
"Ark, take this!"
Then, Ye Fan unleashed his full power, seemingly transforming into a death arrow carrying endless darkness and destructive power.
He shot out like a comet hitting the earth, heading straight for the location of the "Ark".
Snapped!
Upon seeing this, Chen Qingshan's face contorted in pain, and he couldn't help but cover his face with his hands, unwilling to witness the horrific scene that was about to unfold.
puff!
Lu Hu couldn't help but laugh out loud, eagerly anticipating what would happen next.
At that moment, time seemed to stand still, and the entire training ground was left with only the black arrow that Ye Fan had transformed into, and the fallen power it carried that was enough to overturn everything.
Soaring through the air, with only a figure in a long robe, holding a staff, looking panicked in his eyes, Ye Fan felt his blood boil.
Become the first stepping stone on my invincible path, Ark!
When I ascend the legendary throne, your name will be remembered by the world along with me!
wrong!
Ye Fan glanced at the instructors and researchers in the research group and saw that they all looked utterly miserable.
Did they feel sorry for the Ark's defeat at his hands?
Boom!
Before he could even think, he had already slammed into the "Ark" with immense force.
Ye Fan was confident that no apprentice-level mage could withstand his Fallen Strike with their bare body!
When he touches the Ark, the training ground's protection mechanism will be triggered to ensure that the Ark is not damaged.
But this also means that the Ark has been defeated!
At this critical moment, Ark, lurking among the skeletons, activated the [Bone Shield] skill.
As mental energy was depleted, a skeletal shield appeared above the "Ark".
Bang!
With a dull thud, Ye Fan felt as if he had crashed into a solid wall, and his whole body was in excruciating pain.
"What kind of skill is this?"
The onlookers couldn't help but gasp. Even Chen Qingshan, who had been covering his face with his hand, couldn't help but open his fingers.
Lu Hu's eyes gleamed with astonishment as he exclaimed, "A new skill from a necromancer?"
However, the Fallen Strike was Ye Fan's trump card, and its power was something that a bone shield could not withstand.
The bone shield delayed Ye Fan for a few seconds before being completely shattered by his immense impact.
Immediately afterwards, Ye Fan's agile body knocked "Ark" to the ground with the force of Mount Tai crashing down.
Click.
Click.
The "Ark" struggled slightly before shattering into a pile of bones.
The immense impact also made Ye Fan feel dizzy.
He braced himself on the ground, staring at the pile of bones beneath the mage's robe, momentarily stunned.
The Ark... was smashed into pieces by itself?
No, that's not right!
His keen combat instincts made him immediately aware of his situation.
I've been scammed! I was actually scammed by Ark!
This is not an ark at all, but a skeleton wearing a mage's robe!
Ye Fan turned around abruptly, wanting to stand up, but it was too late.
Under Ark's command, nearly ten more skeletons surrounded Ye Fan, who was already exhausted.
"Revenge Strike!"
Ye Fan was unwilling to accept defeat, so he desperately squeezed out his last bit of strength and released his skill once again.
A skeleton fell to the ground.
But Ye Fan was powerless to turn the tide. He was then pinned down by the swarming skeletons, who pinned his limbs down and left him unable to move.
Ye Fan struggled desperately for more than ten seconds, but he was so exhausted that he could only lie on the ground with his eyes wide open, staring blankly at the ceiling.
Seeing that Ye Fan had given up resistance and the outcome was decided, Chen Qingshan blew the whistle at Lu Hu's urging.
"Ark has won, come out now."
Fang Zhou coughed lightly, removed the optical camouflage cloth from his body, and said somewhat embarrassedly, "Ye Fan, you flatter me."
Ye Fan was no longer the spirited man he once was. He looked like a salted fish, staring blankly at the ark, his eyes seemingly filled with a hint of accusation.
Fang Zhou touched his nose, feeling inexplicably guilty.
It was just a little tactic; it shouldn't have hurt Ye Fan, right?
However, Ark has its own effective methods for dealing with chuunibyou (delusional) teenagers.
He manipulated the skeleton to help Ye Fan up, then stepped forward and patted the dust off him. Without saying a word, he gave him a look of disappointment.
Ye Fan, however, seemed to have grasped something, and suddenly came back to life.
He broke free from the skeleton's support, pointed at the ark, and said breathlessly, "Failure is nothing more than the resources for me to become stronger!"
Thirty years to Hedong, thirty years to Hexi!
"Ark, we'll fight again tomorrow!"
At this moment, Lu Hu and Chen Qingshan also arrived beside the two.
Chen Qingshan pointed at Fangzhou and sincerely praised him, "Fangzhou, with such a dirty heart, you will definitely become a tactical master in the future."
Land Rover, on the other hand, is not so subtle.
He gave Fangzhou a thumbs up and asked excitedly, "Fangzhou, was that shield spell you just cast a new skill that you learned on your own?"
I know a bit about necromancers, but I've never seen this kind of skill before.
Ark's decision to expose the Bone Shield in this situation was clearly well-thought-out, as it intended to gain contribution points in return.
Not only that, but the military academy should also recognize his potential, and ideally, they should assign him a research group similar to Ye Fan's.
Fangzhou replied, "Yes, Instructor Lu."
I made some progress while practicing summoning skeletons and learned two new skills.
I named them "Bone Spears" and "Bone Shields."
Lu Hu couldn't help but step forward, pat Fang Zhou on the shoulder, and say, "Fang Zhou, you really are great."
He turned to Chen Qingshan and said, "Brother Qingshan, you happen to have professional equipment here. Why don't you test Ark's new skills?"
Chen Qingshan naturally had no objections, and the other researchers were also very interested in the new necromancy skills.
For the past week, their research subject, Ye Fan, has been constantly muttering that he wants to fight Fang Zhou to the death.
Today, I witnessed their wonderful exchange of skills once again.
Aside from being a bit dirty-minded, they all had a very high opinion of the Ark.
At this moment, Fangzhou suddenly said embarrassedly, "Instructor, my mental energy is almost depleted, and I'm afraid I won't be able to fully test these two new skills."
