As the battle progressed, Chen Fengâs already decayed face appeared even more silent.
Originally, he thought this was just a simple skirmish; after all, his opponent was only a Death Knight at Silver Peak, and capturing the opponentâs forces was supposed to be a sure thing.
But who could have anticipated, halfway through the battle, just as Chen Feng was about to clinch victory, a mutated banshee appeared out of nowhere.
Banshee.
It had exposed teeth, red eyes, and only one nostril. Its feet were webbed like a frogâs, an unsettling female fairy in appearance.
The banshee was very weak, and most banshees would not commit major evil deeds. Its eyes were swollen because it cried upon knowing someone died, leading to the swelling. However, humans consider its existence ominous and still fear it.
But there are always some exceptions.
Just as seemingly weak humans could also produce some psychotic murderers, the banshee group, though most of their power was unremarkable, always had some individual examples.
Gold-tier banshee.
its life characteristics were similar to a lich; it was also an undying being and possessed intellect that ordinary undead did not. It witnessed the battle between Chen Feng and the Death Knight and intervened at the crucial moment, intending to profit from the clashing forces.
It succeeded.
At the critical moment, the banshee repelled Chen Fengâs army and, relying on the Death Knightâs hatred, successfully turned the knight, forming an alliance.
Do not think the Death Knight could see through this conspiracy. For a creature that had not yet reached the Golden Tier, where instinct outweighs thought, its ideas were simple: Chen Fengâs attack on its territory was an enemy move.
An enemy should be destroyed.
The banshee was not intimidating by itself; Chen Feng had enough strength to fight it to a draw when one-on-one.
However, the joint attack from the Death Knight made Chen Feng feel a bit troubled.
The alliance with the Death Knight once again shattered the battlefieldâs balance, and what was more important was that within the ambush, Chen Fengâs army suffered enormous losses.
The bone dragon forged over countless years was also unfortunately crushed to bone dust in the battle, and by this time, Chen Feng was already on the brink of defeat.
The banshee possessed special abilities, allowing it to influence ordinary Skeleton Warriors on the battlefield through its wailing.
At this time, the army led by the Death Knight could attack these potential threats without any restriction.
Of course, Chen Feng did not lack a bit of fallback.
A grim zombie emerged, related to Gold, allowing Chen Feng to procure some fresh flesh from the Human World. Compared to ordinary Skeleton Warriors, this Bloody Butcher was his most favored experiment after the bone dragon.
Whoosh!
A burst of fresh blood splattered out, and the rotting claw easily ripped through the Death Knightâs armor, then disemboweled him, even pulling out his intestines.
Yet, the Death Knight did not die!
Because he had specialized skills like armored skin, legendary strength, and perfect physique. These injuries could only cause him continuous bleeding damage, insufficient to trigger a lethal exemption check.
Clang clang clang!
A series of fierce exchanges erupted, and the severely injured Death Knight roared, seemingly abandoning the hope of survival, a resolute determination appearing in his eyes.
At that moment.
His combat power suddenly increased tremendously, almost able to crush the Bloody Butcher in a short time.
"Death Charge!"
The Death Knight had already formed a resolve to die.
And when an undead fights with a resolve to die, the potential erupted would be quite astonishing!
"Withering Decay!"
Covered in foul blood, the Death Knight had an awe-inspiring momentum. As his subordinates tangled with the Bloody Butcher, he unleashed a withering decay directly upon the Bloody Butcherâs body, then a vast power of shadows corroded his body.
What seemed like an evenly matched scene, yet in Chen Fengâs eyes, revealed a glimpse of helplessness.
The battlefield situation was already apparent.
The Bloody Butcher had lost the opportunity to fight again. Withering Decay was the Death Knightâs signature move; once hit, the body would gradually be corroded by shadows, not only making it slow down but also causing the blood and flesh to gradually disintegrate.
Undead battles are not extravagant. Victory or defeat often comes in an instant.
Seriously injured and dying enemies rarely have the chance to turn the tables!
Because even the Bloody Butcher could not make a proper defense, the Death Knight urged the Skeleton Horse beneath him to charge at the Bloody Butcher. Simultaneously, he swung the White Bone Giant Blade in his hand.
Clang!
When the White Bone Giant Blade traced an arc across the Bloody Butcherâs neck, the latterâs head fell to the ground in the next second.
The Bloody Butcherâs body slowly collapsed, all its life vitality stripped by magic, turning pale and cold in an instant.
The outcome was already decided.
With the Bloody Butcherâs death, Chen Fengâs subordinates no longer had capable generals.
Regrettably.
Chen Fengâs first expansion on Bone Plain could only end in failure.
Continued fighting was meaningless. Lacking advanced combat power, the remaining Skeleton Warriors were merely cannon fodder, and under the crushing of the Death Knight and banshee, it wouldnât take long before they turned into a pile of bones.
Retribution!
Chen Feng gazed at the distant banshee, a hint of blood-red appeared in his eyes, vowing that someday he would return, and by then, this ugly fairy would pay the price for angering him.
Chen Feng would not place himself in a dangerous environment.
Now, although he lost sixty percent of the Skeleton Warriors and all his High-tier Undead, the least scarce in Bone Plain were undead creatures; as long as he was alive, it wouldnât take long before he could raise a new army.
Next time, he will be more prudent.
Whether it be the Death Knight or banshee, they will be targets of his revenge, and he will seize back everything he lost today. This might require some time to prepare, but for a lich, if thereâs anything he doesnât lack, itâs time.
Chen Feng finally decided to leave.
However, just as he was about to retreat, a teleportation spellâs connection suddenly descended at this moment.
Two massive bodies were transported in front of him.
In Chen Fengâs eyes, a hint of bizarre light flickered.
This battle,
Perhaps...
He could still give it a try.
