Li Peng narrowed his eyes slightly, "Undead?"
The skeleton surveyed its surroundings and finally locked onto Li Peng.
Instantly, Li Peng's hair stood on end! He was startled.
Very strong!
His strength is at least level 7!
The immense pressure made Li Peng grip the dagger tightly, his eyes fixed on the skeleton.
"I've never heard of any undead in this instance..."
Although the dungeon contains countless monsters, they are generally distributed according to normal logic. The forest is mostly inhabited by wild beasts, while sea monsters appear in places with water.
The dead mostly appear in cemeteries, or at least in eerie and gloomy places.
The appearance of a skeleton in this lush green place is somewhat counterintuitive.
Li Peng frowned in thought, while Mu Qingxue stared blankly at the skeleton beside him.
The skeleton reminded her of someone.
No... how could that be?
Mu Qingxue shook her head.
Why would she think of Shen Yi?
Even if Shen Yi were to appear, he shouldn't be showing up with such a skeleton, right?
The skeleton fought Li Peng, and its strength was even comparable to Li Peng's.
The strength of this summoned creature is such that it would require at least a level 20 necromancer to summon it.
Even if Shen Yi were to survive this dungeon by sheer luck, given the strength of a necromancer, he would only reach level three or four at most...
Is this skeleton a summoned creature of Shen Yi?
How could that be!
"Woman, what are you standing there for!"
Li Peng gritted his teeth. "Skeletons usually appear in groups. The fact that one has appeared means there are other skeletons nearby."
"Hurry up and help!"
"Why should I help?" Mu Qingxue sneered. "Its target is clearly you. Whoever wins or loses, I can profit from it."
"Then I'll let it kill you first!"
"That's perfect." Mu Qingxue pouted. "It's a million times better than being threatened with a fate worse than death by you."
Level 7 is not an unattainable goal. If Mu Qingxue is given a few more days, she is confident that she can reach level 7.
But the truth is, with Li Peng's current skills, he could easily subdue them.
Seeing Li Peng suffer a setback, Mu Qingxue even felt a sense of revenge, and a mischievous glint appeared on her face.
"asshole!"
Just as Li Peng was about to speak, the skeletal figure vanished from its spot in an instant, a gust of wind whipping up a few blades of grass.
Wow, so fast!
He had no time to be distracted and tried his best to capture the traces left in the air.
"Clang—"
The two daggers clashed together, and Li Peng gritted his teeth.
Indeed, very strong.
In terms of both speed and strength, this skeleton is definitely no less than me.
Not to mention, there was also a Thunder Mage eyeing them menacingly nearby!
Li Peng's carefully crafted script was disrupted by the sudden appearance of the skeleton, which made him feel somewhat irritated.
The Frosthawk is coming from the sky!
That's how it should be.
"Brother Peng, it seems that the Frosthawk has gone somewhere else!"
"Um?"
Li Peng was taken aback. There shouldn't be any prey within several miles of the Frosthawk—he had personally confirmed this.
After deducing the Frosthawk's movement pattern, he concluded that it would come here, so he led a group of bait to this place.
Li Peng may have misjudged the situation, but that's actually a good thing. Right now, dealing with this skeleton that appeared out of nowhere is the top priority.
The hunter nocked an arrow and aimed it directly at the skeleton that was fighting Li Peng.
The arrow tip trembled slightly, and he said helplessly, "Brother, it's too fast, I can't aim accurately!"
"Find a way to control its movements!"
Li Peng took a deep breath, "That one from Jiangnan No.1 High School!"
"Let's make a deal!"
"If you help me kill this skeleton, I can release your squad!"
He couldn't do anything to the skeleton, while Mu Qingxue was a thunder mage, and at least she was the person most capable of restricting the skeleton's movements.
Mu Qingxue said calmly, "Not enough."
"Huh?" Li Peng cursed inwardly, "What else do you want!"
“It’s very simple,” Mu Qingxue said quickly. “Release all the students from Jiangnan No.1 High School.”
"That's impossible!"
Li Peng decisively refused.
Are you kidding me?
Although he is a hidden class, he is an assassin, and his pure melee ability is about the same as that of a knight of the same level.
That's why I came up with the idea of using meat as bait.
Only in this way can he have the means to quickly kill high-level monsters and compete with them.
Giving up on these students from Jiangnan No.1 High School is tantamount to making him give up a major advantage!
"In that case, we have nothing more to discuss."
Mu Qingxue was even more decisive.
Suddenly, Li Peng turned and glared at Mu Qingxue.
"Woman, since you don't want to help, don't blame me..."
After saying that, Li Peng suddenly changed his footing and dodged the skeleton's stabbing attacks one after another.
He ran to a student from Jiangnan No. 1 High School who was tied up and picked him up.
Mu Qingxue's expression changed drastically, "You bastard!"
Human shields!
That's right, Li Peng's plan is to seize the opportunity to attack the skeletons while they are attacking the students of Jiangnan No.1 High School!
"No...no!"
The student screamed in agony.
A cruel smile appeared on Li Peng's face.
"This is all you've got. If you have anyone to blame, blame that stupid woman for not cooperating with me!"
Although no one would die in this instance, Mu Qingxue still felt a little sorry to see her fellow students being used like this and losing a precious instance opportunity.
The skull's dagger slashed down.
The expected light did not appear, and the student was not even hurt by the dagger.
Instead, the ropes binding him were cut.
Li Peng: "?"
Mu Qingxue: "?"
Everyone present: "?"
I was completely dumbfounded.
Did the skeleton cut the rope?
The student who was used as a human shield was somewhat stunned.
I didn't die?
What's going on?
Li Peng was simply confused; he thought the skeleton had simply missed its target.
Mu Qingxue was completely dumbfounded.
Could it be...?
The skeleton in front of me...
A completely impossible idea suddenly popped into her mind.
...
"Killing you is really not easy."
Shen Yi was sitting in the nest of the Frosthawk.
The surrounding area was filled with ice shards and broken bones.
Not far away, the carcasses of two frost falcons lay on the ground, one male and one female.
Killing the two Frosthawks was by no means easy; half of Shen Yi's squad of over thirty skeletons was wiped out, and the captain was replaced multiple times.
Monsters with the ability to fly are almost invincible at the same level. Shen Yi racked his brains and waited for the Frost Falcon to finish feeding before he succeeded.
However, while the losses were heavy, the gains were equally substantial.
[Defeat Frosthawk Lv8, gain 31% experience]
[Defeat Frosthawk Lv7, gain 26% experience]
[Level Up]
[Class: Necromancer]
[Level: 7]
[Strength: 16]
Agility: 16
[Spells: 24]
[Assignable attribute points: 0]
The eighth battalion commander ran over, holding something in his hand.
"Did you get loot?"
Chen Yi was in a good mood and accepted the prop.
【Jewelry: Ring of Unity】
