Blood Evolution System-Chapter 165: Skeleton army
While Vincent was taking care of the enemies on his side, Leilani, John, Nevis, and Iris defeated several enemies by using the triangular formation. Varth, on the other hand, not only lured many monsters away from both sides but also supported them from behind the line, shooting down monsters.
"Damn! My magic power is running low." Nevis said, able to determine that he only had seven units of magic power left in his body, and at the rate he was using his magic matrix, he would use it all up soon.
"Switch with me," Leilani said, offering up her spot to Nevis so that he would be able to recover his magic power safely.
"Alright," Nevis said, accepting her offer with a smile on his face.
Leilani hurriedly stepped out of the center of the triangle in order to stand in Nevis's position, while Nevis leaped five feet backward to stand in the center of the triangle formation.
While John, Leilani, and Iris protected him, Nevis popped a pill in his mouth, letting a huge wave of energy rush down his throat and into his heart, restoring his magic energy.
It only took a few moments for the pill to work its wonders and restore his magic energy.
Right after, he switched places with Leilani, confronting beasts head-on.
A while later, John ran out of his battle energy, so Leilani switched places with him, while Iris gave him a battle energy recovering pill, hoping that the pill would be helpful to him in recovering his battle energy.
Without any hesitation, John ate it, and as the effect of the pill was instant, he felt his battle energy restoring at a rapid phase.
They kept on switching places while fighting the monster, utilizing the triangle formation to the best of its capabilities.
After a few moments, Vincent finished dealing with the monsters on his side, earning thousands of life forces, and he then moved towards his teammates, helping them kill the monsters.
It didn't take long for them to kill all the monsters in the hall, clearing the wave.
The moment they killed the very last monster, the next wave started, and skeleton poured out of the four portals. Each of the skeleton warriors held a melee weapon in their bony hand, and out of them, four particular skeletons stood out. Unlike the others who the creator has based on humans, these four skeletons were gigantic, adorned in heavy armor and holding massive swords in their hands.
"At least give us some time to rest and recover our stamina," Nevis complained in his heart, cursing the purple moon fairy under his breath.
"Another wave of eerie monsters! What next? Are we going to tackle ghouls, vampires, zombies, and wrath after this wave?" John said, feeling annoyed by the immediate appearance of skeleton warriors.
"Don't jinx us," Leilani said, popping a pill in her mouth, recovering her magic power.
"Stop complaining and get ready to fight!" Varth said, reloading before pulling the trigger shooting a few rounds towards the skeleton warriors, signifying the start of the battle.
With the help of the appraisal spell matrix, Vincent appraised them, hoping to know more about them and understand their strength and weaknesses.
"Guys, I only have time to say this once, so listen well! These guys won't die, no matter how much you attack them. The only way to kill them is to destroy their life orb. It looks different than a beast core and is somewhere behind their ribcage." Vincent explained the weakness of the skeleton warriors to his teammates.
He then started to move away from them.
"Where are you going?" Leilani asked in a hurry.
"I'm going to lure the four giant skeleton warriors away from you guys. Don't worry, though, nothing is going to happen to me," Vincent said, "Defeat the skeleton warriors as fast as you can, and then come help me."
"Good luck!"
Vincent rushed forward, stomped his foot on the ground, jumping towards the ceiling of the hall. He vanished amid the jump, disappearing from the hall and appearing in his subspace. There, he drank a few mouthfuls of blood to restore the blood in his second heart.
<Blood Count: 50/50]
After drinking blood and satisfying himself, he thought of stepping out of the subspace and he vanished from where he stood.
In the very next split of a second, he appeared in the center of the hall, and then blood surged out of the pores in his back, taking the shape of four tentacles with sharp ends as they rushed upwards, stabbing into the ceiling, letting him hang from it.
"Holy shit, that's so cool!" John and Nevis thought while looking at Vincent, mouth gaped and eyes opened wide.
Vincent used his blood to conjure four crimson spears and then wrapped a tentacle around the end of each spear, and then moved the tentacles back and forth, letting them gain momentum before yanking the four spears in four different directions.
Whoosh
Whoosh
Whoosh
Each of the spears cut through the air, moving towards the four giant skeleton warriors at an incredible speed.
They reach their targets in the blink of an eye, but before they could land on them, they brandished the huge sword in their hands, shattering the crimson spears into dozens of crimson chunks.
Vincent has already expected this to happen, so he had launched a second set of crimson spears towards him way before they shattered the crimson spears.
The giant skeleton warriors were too late to realize the incoming crimson spears, and they crashed on the bones behind which their life cores were stored.
The spears pierced through their bones, making their way towards their life cores, nearly reaching them, but in that very moment, the giant skeleton warriors punched their ribcage, shattering the crimson spears in the most barbaric way.
However, they also ended up injuring themselves, since the fist they used to destroy the crimson spear also shattered their ribcage.
They consumed a few skeleton warriors around them to heal their injuries, and then they looked towards the damn human hanging from the ceiling with eyes overflowing in rage.
Without saying a word, they charged towards him, shaking the floor with each step.
"Bait successful!" Vincent smiled when he saw them coming at him.
