Chapter 155: First Losses of Skeleton Warriors
A series of prompts appeared.
The military badges burst with dazzling silver light as they gained large amounts of military merits.
With just one explosion, both of them gained 3000 military merits each.
The Corpse Explosion had taken out a full 60 Abyss demons.
Effective!
Lin Moyu was delighted - it actually worked.
This meant the corpse had exploded after entering the Abyss world.
Corpse Explosion had a range of 90 meters, and the demons were all 5-6 meters tall or even larger.
Killing 60 at once meant there were many demons crowded together.
Lin Moyu imagined the scene in his mind:
The spatial channel appeared, countless demons rushing to come out.
So they were all crowded together.
Then a corpse flew over and exploded!
Killing so many in one blast.
After twisting a few times, the spatial channel gradually returned to normal.
It seemed this spatial channel could last a while longer.
Ning Yiyi exclaimed happily, "So many military merits! Explode more, explode more!"
Lin Moyu shook his head, "Wait a bit."
They had just exploded one, so the demons on the other side surely hadn’t gathered yet. Exploding again now wouldn’t be as effective.
Sure enough, a minute later, pairs of blood-red eyes appeared on the spatial channel again.
The demons had gathered once more.
The skeleton warriors again threw a demon corpse towards the spatial channel.
Following the same method, the demon corpse entered the spatial channel and exploded with a boom.
[Killed Abyss Demon...]
[Killed Abyss Demon...]
...
Another string of prompts appeared.
The military badges that had just dimmed flashed brightly again.
Over 2000 more military merits.
Lin Moyu’s military merits had reached 8500, not far from 10,000.
Then he would be a one-star lieutenant.
Ning Yiyi’s military merits had also reached 7900.
No one had ever gained military merits so easily before.
The spatial channel twisted again in the explosion.
It looked like it could collapse at any moment.
Originally it could have existed for longer, but due to the two Corpse Explosions, its existence time was greatly shortened.
The spatial channel’s distortions became more and more violent. Lin Moyu knew it couldn’t recover again.
"What a pity, it was a rare opportunity."
If they could explode two more waves, or even just one, he could become a one-star lieutenant.
Now it seemed they would have to wait for another chance in the future.
Suddenly, the twisting spatial channel abruptly stabilized.
Lin Moyu was delighted, "We can explode more!"
The next second, his soul nearly fled his body.
Flames surged madly from the spatial channel, and a huge eye appeared behind it.
Lin Moyu didn’t even think, immediately pulling Ning Yiyi away.
"Lin Moyu, I’ve caught you!"
An angry roar came from behind the spatial channel.
Lin Moyu’s ears rang violently, temporarily losing his hearing.
Ning Yiyi also frowned, clearly in great pain.
Streams of death rays shot out from behind the spatial channel, landing on Lin Moyu.
Bone Armor shattered with a boom.
Lin Moyu was sent flying backwards, massive damage transferred to the skeletons.
All the skeletons were injured at once.
The skeleton warriors quickly rushed over, densely blocking in front, becoming shields.
Death rays struck the skeleton warriors, shattering them instantly.
One, two, three...
Instant kills, without exception.
The number in the summoning space was rapidly decreasing. When skeleton warriors died, the number in the summoning space decreased accordingly.
Lin Moyu felt heartache. Since summoning the first skeleton warrior until now, they had been injured before, but never died.
But now, they were dying to shield him.
He could block it himself, but then all the skeleton warriors would likely die, and the skeleton mages too.
His own defense was too weak. Once Bone Armor collapsed, the skeleton warriors would suffer unimaginable damage.
Each skeleton warrior could only block one death ray.
The rays were too fast, like lightning. Besides hard blocking, there was no way to dodge.
Rays shot out continuously from the Flame Demon King’s eye. Each time, one or two skeleton warriors were killed by the rays.
In the blink of an eye, over a dozen had died, with the number still increasing.
Lin Moyu knew this couldn’t continue.
He had an idea, immediately having skeleton warriors throw the remaining demon corpses towards the spatial channel.
Lin Moyu activated his skill at the same time.
Skill: Corpse Explosion!
Boom! Boom! Boom!
Explosions occurred one after another. The spatial channel twisted again in the explosions.
The Flame Demon King’s death rays were forcibly interrupted.
The Flame Demon King roared in anger, but still couldn’t stabilize the spatial channel.
Only then did Lin Moyu breathe a sigh of relief, knowing his choice was correct.
The last few remaining corpses were all thrown over.
Lin Moyu calmly detonated them.
The spatial channel twisted even more violently, on the verge of collapse.
"Lin Moyu, I won’t let you go, absolutely not!"
The Flame Demon King was enraged to the extreme.
Lin Moyu’s two explosions just now had actually hurt it.
Yes, hurt it.
Even its flames were slightly distorted.
A tiny little ant, a mosquito, could actually hurt it, a Demon King of the Abyss.
And it failed to kill Lin Moyu twice, utterly humiliating it.
Lin Moyu ignored its roars, even waving at it, "Goodbye! I’ll blow you up in the future."
The Flame Demon King roared repeatedly, "I won’t let you go, never!!!"
The spatial channel disappeared.
Only then did Lin Moyu breathe a sigh of relief.
A full twenty skeleton warriors had been destroyed, a significant cost.
But at least nothing major had happened.
Ning Yiyi asked anxiously, "Moyu, are you okay?"
Lin Moyu shook his head, "I’m fine, just lost some skeleton warriors."
A flash of anger passed through his eyes. His grudge with the Flame Demon King was now irreconcilable.
Someday in the future, he would go to the Abyss and have a good talk about demon life with the Flame Demon King.
Of course, talking with his fists.
After repeatedly confirming Lin Moyu was unharmed, Ning Yiyi finally relaxed.
Still shaken, she said, "That scared me to death. The Flame Demon King is too despicable, a mighty Demon King actually ambushing us."
"It’s good it was you. If it were other career holders, they’d definitely be dead."
"When I’m powerful enough in the future, I’ll stab it a few times in the Abyss."
Ning Yiyi waved her little fists, looking fierce and resentful.
Lin Moyu patted her head, feeling the soft touch on his fingertips, "I blew it up twice in a row. Though I couldn’t hurt it, I made it lose face."
"It’s normal for it to hate me, but it’s fine. In the future I’ll let it know whose fist is bigger."
Lin Moyu showed no fear at all. He was only level 26 now, yet it couldn’t kill him.
In the future it would have even less chance.
He recalled the skeleton warriors, letting them recover in the summoning space.
The first death ray that hit him not only shattered Bone Armor, but also dealt massive damage to him.
This damage was all transferred to the skeletons, shared among all the skeleton warriors and mages.
The attack was too strong, and his defense too weak.
With just one hit, all the skeleton warriors and mages were injured, and not lightly.
Just three or four more hits and the skeletons would die in large numbers.
Lin Moyu realized that in Battlefield No. 1, the opponent’s attacks weren’t so strong.
Back then, Bone Armor could last one or two seconds.
Unlike now when it shattered instantly.
Keep in mind that current Bone Armor was much stronger than before.
This could only mean that here, closer to the Abyss entrance, the opponent could exert more power through the spatial channel.
Though he verbally looked down on his opponent, in his heart Lin Moyu never underestimated the Flame Demon King.
After all, it was a Demon King, an existence on par with some top career holders.
Not something he could compare to now.
The two rested in place, Ning Yiyi chatting with Lin Moyu.
As the tension dissipated, Ning Yiyi returned to her lively, talkative self.
After resting for a while, they set off again.
Following the black line along the Abyss border, they reached the deepest part of Battlefield No. 3.
Originally this should be where Abyss demons were most numerous.
In their minds, this place should have constant battles.
But the result was exactly the opposite.
It was very quiet here.
A dungeon entrance vortex was spinning, making its unique sound.
About 500-600 meters from the dungeon was a simple small fortress standing on the ground.
There were high-level career holders inside and outside the fortress.
There was also a teleportation array.
When she saw the teleportation array, Ning Yiyi let out a surprised cry.
