Chapter 358 Skeleton Nether Dragon, Lord of Skeletons
"Wang Mang, what are you standing there for? Hurry up and bring your men over here!" Luo Yu shouted at the stunned Wang Mang.
"Ah, good, good, good." Coming to his senses, Wang Mang hurriedly gathered his men and walked toward Luo Yu and the others.
After Wang Mang entered the White Bone Lizard Demon's guard range, Jiang Han waved his hand to indicate that they could continue on their way. After Wang Mang arrived near the Light Mage Corps, he whispered to Luo Yu, "Commander Luo, just who is this big shot?"
"Besides a powerful family, what other force in Xingcheng could cultivate such a prodigy?" Luo Yu said.
"Yes, only those powerful families could cultivate such a prodigy," Wang Mang murmured in admiration.
As Jiang Han led Luo Yu and the others onward, he took a moment to check his phone. It showed that it was a little after seven in the morning, but in reality it was still night. To be precise, it was already dawn, but only a faint ray of morning light shone through the dark clouds onto the muddy ground. No one else noticed this, which made Jiang Han frown.
Jiang Han had a feeling that today's undead riot was not so simple, and the rain seemed familiar, somewhat like Bo City!
"Could it be that someone from the Black Vatican is really pulling this up behind the scenes this time?" Jiang Han wondered to himself.
Upon thinking of the Black Vatican, a cold glint flashed in Jiang Han's eyes. If there were indeed members of the Black Vatican hiding in the shadows of the ancient capital, then this rain would be the prelude to a disaster for the capital.
As dawn broke, the dark clouds and rain made everything seem gloomy, but no matter how gloomy the sky was, it could not hide the fact that it was already daytime, and the sound of bells continued to echo in this ancient city.
As the bells rang, the city's residents began to struggle again for a living.
The ringing of the bell signifies the dawn, and the land outside the city walls will return to its usual tranquility. However, before the mages guarding the city walls can even breathe a sigh of relief, they hear the roars of the undead echoing from the land below once again.
The rampaging undead army naturally alarmed Zhu Meng, Staff Officer Zhu, and others on the third floor of the city wall. Their eyes were filled with shock and fear, and the hot-tempered Zhu Meng angrily asked, "Can anyone tell me what's going on?"
The undead attempting to breach the city walls below not only did not decrease but increased in number, becoming even more ferocious and violent, like a black tide surging towards the city walls. However, a long white dragon weaved through the undead army.
Meanwhile, as this "white dragon" advances, large numbers of undead nearby will disappear. As for how they disappear, they are naturally devoured by Jiang Han's undead lizard-headed giant monster or white bone lizard monster.
"Isn't it over?" Lu Xu stared at the black horde of corpses below, his eyes bloodshot, while blood began to seep from his severed right arm due to his emotional outburst.
Looking at the long white dragon of the undead army in the distance, Du Xiao Lie Wang said weakly, "The Jiang family's boy has already returned, so we still have a chance."
"I hope so," Lu Xu said.
When Jiang Han and the others were less than a thousand meters from the city wall, a sound like a death knell came from the direction of the north city wall. Immediately afterwards, a skeletal creature with huge bone wings flew from a distance, skimming the clouds. This skeletal creature was like a larger version of Long Da, but it had three heads, and the aura it exuded was much stronger than Long Da's.
As the enormous skeletal creature drew closer, Jiang Han realized that its skeleton was comparable to the main city tower standing on the north city wall.
Compared to the skeletal creature in the sky, the citizens and mages in the city were as insignificant as ants. They had no will to resist the skeletal creature in the sky, and fear spread wildly among the citizens of the city like a plague.
"That's the Lord of the Skeletons!!" Jiang Han recognized the giant skeletal creature in the sky.
After regaining his senses, Jiang Han shouted to Luo Yu and the others, "Hurry up and get into the city. I'll have my White Bone Lizard Demons clear a path for you."
"And what about you?" Luo Yu asked, somewhat worried.
In Luo Yu's view, Jiang Han's life was more important than any of theirs. As long as Jiang Han didn't die young, he would be able to reach the Super Rank in a few years and become a strongman in China, killing more demons or undead for the country.
"Me? Of course I'll go first." As he spoke, a pair of golden wings unfurled from Jiang Han's back, and he flapped them as he rushed toward the city wall.
Watching Jiang Han fly to the city wall in the blink of an eye, Luo Yu felt a little like cursing. He thought Jiang Han was going to stay behind to cover their retreat, but it turned out he was going to meet up with Councilor Zhu Meng and the others. He breathed a sigh of relief after seeing Jiang Han leave.
After Jiang Han landed on the city wall, Zhu Meng and the others nodded slightly in acknowledgment, and then turned their attention back to the Skeleton Lord, who was several miles away from the city wall. This was a powerful undead, whose strength was several times greater than that of the Ghost Tyrant they had killed before.
If the previous Ghost Tyrant and this Skeleton Lord were true rulers of their respective races, then even if Zhu Meng, Du Xiao, and the others were all there, they might not have been able to successfully kill them.
"This is troublesome. It's actually the Lord of Skeletons, the Skeleton King, whose strength has reached the level of a Grand Monarch!" Zhu Yong said with some melancholy.
Zhu Meng, Du Xiao, Lu Xu, and Fei Jiao all fell silent. Zhu Yong's words were even a bit conservative. If they really started fighting, even in their prime, they would be defeated, let alone now that they were seriously injured.
What they couldn't understand was why this infamous super undead would awaken during the day.
"Awooo!!!"
Another death knell-like roar resounded, and several miles away from the city wall, the Skeleton Lord of the Underworld raised three heads, and through its hollowed-out throat, one could even see black energy brewing within its mouth.
Upon seeing the black energy brewing in the mouth of the Skeleton Lord, Zhu Meng, Lu Xu, Fei Jiao, and Du Xiao all knew something was wrong.
It was too late to stop the Bone Lord. The space vibrated and hummed. The death rainbow had no arc, but instead appeared as a straight diagonal line that swept across the rain curtain. Just as the death rainbow was about to touch the city wall, two balls of sky-blue ice breath, one large and one small, rushed forward to meet it.
Jiang Han ordered Long Da and Xue Ling to make a move, but their strength was still far inferior to that of the Skeleton King.
In an instant, the two icy breaths, one large and one small, were shattered by the Death Rainbow. Then, the Death Rainbow slammed into the city wall one kilometer to the left of the north wall, spreading black light and obscuring the faint sunlight in the sky.
P.S.: Please vote! I had some things to take care of the past few days, updates will resume later. (End of Chapter)
