Chapter 17 - The Undead Army!

Boom, boom, boom...

In an instant, Gerard found himself besieged by three "Bone Warriors," leaving him no time even to speak!

"Link, stop it now!!!"

Seeing this, Norton was nearly scared out of his wits and shouted loudly at Link, "With your strength, why don't we join forces to deal with this beast? There might still be a glimmer of hope!"

"Go to hell!"

Link cursed without hesitation, standing tall as he declared, "It's just a mere beast. I could take care of it with a wave of my hand. As for you two scoundrels, I've long found you both insufferable. You might as well die first!"

"You!"

Norton was momentarily at a loss for words!

At that moment, Gerard could no longer withstand the relentless assault of the three Bone Warriors. One of them struck him with an axe, landing a brutal blow on his shoulder!

"Ah..."

Accompanied by a piercing scream, crimson blood sprayed through the air!

Severely injured and knowing he had no hope of survival, Gerard made a desperate decision and charged recklessly toward Link!

"Even if I die, I'll drag you down with me!"

"Young master, be careful!"

Ron, seeing Gerard rushing toward them, anxiously grabbed Link's arm!

"You fool!"

But Link stood his ground, watching as Gerard charged closer!

Ten meters, five meters, three meters, one meter...

Finally, Gerard stood before Link, raising his massive sword, ready to strike him down!

"Bone Shield!"

Suddenly, Link waved his hand lightly!

Buzz...

In the next moment, three shields made entirely of pure bone materialized around him, enveloping his body in an impenetrable barrier!

This was the brand-new necromantic spell Link had acquired after summoning the "Bone Warriors"—the "Bone Shield"!

Crack...

The giant sword shattered one of the bone shields, but two remained firmly in front of Link!

"No..."

Gerard could only let out a desperate roar before the three "Bone Warriors" that followed up cleaved him into pieces!

"Gerard!"

Seeing his long-time companion meet such a gruesome end, Norton let out a mournful cry!

But this moment of distraction proved costly; the precarious situation was instantly turned on its head as his spell faltered!

Boom!

Next, the "Magic Pattern Black Wind Tiger" broke free from the "Frost Wall" that had confined it, leaping onto Norton and biting through his throat!

Thus, the bodyguards Bruno had hired at great expense for Link were completely wiped out!

"Y-young master..."

Witnessing the bloody scene before him, Ron's face turned pale as he fought back the urge to vomit, cautiously pointing at the "Magic Pattern Black Wind Tiger" that was feasting on Norton's corpse, seemingly wanting to remind Link that a formidable foe still remained!

"Don't worry, it's just a little cat!"

Link chuckled nonchalantly, his gaze fixed on the "Magic Pattern Black Wind Tiger" not far away, his eyes sparkling with excitement...

"This is a level 9 beast; its magic core should fetch a hefty price in gold..."

"Young master, how can you still be thinking about that at a time like this?"

Ron said, half-amused and half-dismayed, never expecting that in the face of such a powerful creature, Link's first thought would be about gold!

What kind of thick-skinned person could think like this?

However, Link wasn't trying to show off; he was simply brimming with confidence!

"Ron, open your eyes and watch closely. Today, I'll show you what a true 'Undead Army' looks like!"

As his words fell, Link snapped his fingers again!

In the next moment, under Ron's horrified gaze, the ground within a three-hundred-meter radius of Link began to crack and writhe, and a full three hundred skeleton soldiers emerged from the earth, each wielding a bone club, forming an overwhelming mass that seemed endless!

"I... Holy crap! How are there so many?"

Seeing this, Ron could no longer hold back his exclamation!

Even the "Magic Pattern Black Wind Tiger," which had been gnawing on Norton's corpse, couldn't help but show a flicker of fear in its cruel eyes at the sight before it, momentarily forgetting its meal!

"Get them!"

Finally, Link waved his hand, commanding all three hundred skeleton soldiers, along with the three Bone Warriors, to charge at the "Magic Pattern Black Wind Tiger"!

An hour later, as dusk began to settle.

In an unknown forest, beside a serene little lake.

Link lay lazily on the soft grass, instructing several skeleton soldiers to skin and gut the "Magic Pattern Black Wind Tiger," cleaning it thoroughly, while also setting up a campfire to slowly roast the meat!
