Chapter 240: Solin’s Persuasion, Unexpected! Severed Arm

Translator: Dragon Boat Translation Editor: Dragon Boat Translation

“Human, submit to me, undergo the great evolution, and conquer the world for me.”

The hoarse voice of the Skeleton King Solin resounded, like metal scraping against glass, dry and piercing.

Regarding Solin’s ability to speak, Ji Chen wasn’t too surprised.

Although it belonged to the skeleton race, generally speaking, skeletons didn’t have tongues or vocal cords and couldn’t speak.

However, Solin, as a Skeleton King from a mystic realm and a red-legacy tier being, had reached a level where it could comprehend the ability and skill of speech and understand different languages, whether it was part of the skeleton race or not.

This was one of the rules of this world.

In just a moment, Ji Chen raised an eyebrow and said, “Great evolution?”

“Exactly, the great evolution. According to your flesh and blood beings, it’s shedding all flesh and organs, completely transforming into a skeleton form.

Compared to flesh and blood beings, the skeleton body isn’t afraid of pain, doesn’t experience fear, fatigue, or negative effects of the physical body, and doesn’t need to eat.

And as long as the soul isn’t extinguished, it can easily achieve immortality and gain immense power over time.

Strength has a lifespan. Isn’t this something your human race has always pursued?

Skeletons are the most perfect form of life!”

Looking at Solin, who raised both arms and spoke with fervor, Ji Chen first paused, then quirked his lips.

While it’s true that the skeleton form does indeed possess numerous advantages, what Solin mentioned about not needing to eat, limitless stamina, and being impervious to pain was not entirely false.

However… what good are these traits?!

Aren’t they just baseless claims?!

If one lacks those abilities to experience pleasure, then what meaning is there to life?!

But Ji Chen was also surprised that the Skeleton King Solin actually wanted to recruit him. That was a bit humorous.

He was known as the Player of the Fourth Cataclysm, so was he supposed to serve under a skeleton that wasn’t even human?

(T/N: Player of the Fourth Cataclysm is a term used in Chinese gaming to suggest that the person mentioned holds a significant and powerful position in the game’s universe.)

So he smiled and made an international gesture of goodwill towards Solin.

Although Solin didn’t understand the exact meaning of the gesture, he deeply felt a sense of disdain and contempt, a burning anger rising.

The already hoarse voice turned even more grating as he said, “Pathetic and pitiful lowly creatures, limiting yourselves to these fragile bodies is truly foolish. Since you’ve foolishly rejected the invitation of the great Skeleton King Solin, 1’11 have no choice but to kill your physical body and then forcibly transform you into one of my kind.”

Right after he spoke, the organized skeleton legion started moving forward, carrying a chilling intent to kill. Simultaneously, the remaining skeleton beings at the intermediate-grade skeleton camp also initiated their assaults.

The atmosphere instantly grew heavy, tension filling the air.

However, Solin didn’t command the Skeleton Wyverns to attack because the Death Breath could destroy both the physical body and soul, leaving no bones behind. Once the bones and soul were completely obliterated, they couldn’t transform into skeletons anymore.

In his eyes, not only did Ji Chen have value for transformation, but his army also held value for preservation.

Soon, the two most elite forces from both sides clashed, and the sounds of battle filled the air.

On one side, the skeleton legion, unafraid of pain and death, carried a desire to slaughter living beings.

On the other side, a mix of Naga, Murlocs, and other sea races, along with half-orcs, stared at the enemies before them without fear or retreat. Led by their Lord, they possessed the determination to overcome all odds.

As soon as contact was made, casualties appeared on both sides in an instant.

Watching more and more soldiers valiantly fighting, torn to shreds by the skeleton legion, and the casualties rising, Ji Chen began to feel distressed.

These armies were all recruited with resources and a great deal of time investment. They were falling in droves, dying at the hands of these skeletons.

With little time to spare, all the armies and heroes joined the battle immediately.

Alice’s singing voice was in full swing as she controlled a large number of skeletons, rendering them defenseless against the onslaught.

Anina transformed into a humanoid giant whale, her every strike carrying terrifying power as she danced within the sea of skeletons.

Benbo and Daro, relying on the special effects of their units, provided substantial buffs to their troops, greatly enhancing their strength.

However…

As the Skeleton King, this time Solin not only brought his most elite forces but also most of his skeleton commanders.

Five of the blue excellent-tier, eleven of the green elite-tier, and over thirty of the white common-tier commanders.

Roughly calculated, excluding the leaders from both sides, Solin’s side actually had slightly more high-end combat power.

This time, it was almost an evenly matched battle.

Watching his own army gradually dwindling, Ji Chen grew anxious.

If he exhausted his forces here, conquering this realm would lose much of its meaning.

Recruiting an army of this scale would take at least a month.

Making a swift decision, he immediately ordered the self-detonating water spiders that had been waiting in the rear to charge forward.

After several battles, the initial number of around 1,400 self-detonating water spiders dwindled to around 400.

Under Ji Chen’s command, they charged forward without hesitation, exploding amidst the skeleton horde.

On the battlefield, mushroom clouds rose one after another, the ground trembled, and powerful explosions and shockwaves swept through a large area of skeleton creatures..
