I Asked You to Fight, But You Went to Sleep?

“Ah? I don’t know.”

Xu Yuan raised his head, as if he had just woken up.

For a moment, Su Wan couldn’t tell whether he was playing with her. ‘Where did they go?’ she wondered.

Su Wan looked at her Resource Panel. It clearly showed that there were still 100 skeletons. ‘How is it that half of them have disappeared? Could it be an enemy sneak attack?’

However, that wasn’t right. If an enemy had attacked, the number of skeletons would be reduced. Su Wan was anxious. She didn’t know what was going on. She was scared that her troops would disappear in the future without reason. She would be in trouble.

Only the skeletons and Xu Yuan were at the base. Su Wan couldn’t communicate with the skeletons because they couldn’t speak any language.

The only person who might know the truth was Xu Yuan. But he looked like he was in too deep a sleep to know anything about it.

‘What a shame!’ Su Wan felt helpless. In such a large territory, she had no one she could rely on. Su Wan was exhausted.

She realized that the attributes of the remaining skeletons were different. They seem to be a lot stronger than before. They even looked taller than before.

[Fused Low-Level Skeleton Soldiers]

[Strength: 20]

[Spirit: 12]

[Agility: 16]

[Constitution: 24]

…

Su Wan sucked in a breath of cold air. The skeleton soldiers in front of her had attributes twice their previous points.

‘Just like the strong skeletons from before…’

Su Wan remembered when they had fought the barbarian stronghold, the skeletons had changed. Their bones had turned pitch black, and they had suddenly become stronger.

Although the change wasn’t as drastic as before, their attributes had increased.

‘The skeleton soldiers are this magical?’ thought Su Wan. ‘Maybe they had hidden powers that no one before had thought to check.’

Su Wan began to doubt the things she had learnt from the academy.

Skeleton soldiers were not very strong, but they required very few resources to create. They could be created in a short time. Most times, they were just used as cannon fodders to distract or stall the enemies.

As for the strange situation in front of her, she had never heard of something like this. ‘I don’t care anymore.’

“Xu Yuan, let’s go. I will help you level up.” Su Wan narrowed her eyes and smiled. Anyone who could see her could tell that she was scheming.

Xu Yuan spread his wings and flew to Su Wan’s shoulder. Su Wan led the skeletons to the nearby barbarian stronghold.

The skeleton soldiers were very combative. When they saw the enemy, they rushed forward recklessly. It was chaos.

Su Wan tried to teach Xu Yuan some battle tactics and urged him to fight.

“Xu Yuan, go! Spread your wings and fly there! Use your tail to slap the Barbarian Leader’s face!”

All Su Wan talked about was flying, slapping, clawing and spitting fire. Xu Yuan was speechless.

However, to save her some face, he spread his wings and flew over.

“Xu Yuan, well done! You’ve already taken the first step to get rid of your laziness. Next! Aw noooo.”

Xu Yuan flew past the Barbarian Leader to a corner, ignoring all barbarians along the way.

There were rugs in that corner. These were made from furs of the wild beasts that the barbarians had hunted.

Xu Yuan pounced on the soft rugs. He smiled in satisfaction.

Su Wan was baffled. “Xu Yuan?” she cried. ‘What are you doing? Come here and fight!” Su Wan was so angry that she roared.

Xu Yuan was useless. She had thought that he had finally given up on his laziness. But the moment he saw the rugs and the blankets, he went to sleep again!

“This bastard!” she shouted. ‘One day, I will definitely take that laziness out of you!’ she swore in her heart.

Su Wan realized that things hadn’t gone to plan and now this was going to turn bad.

Skeleton soldiers were known to have low combat capabilities. Even though the attributes of the skeleton soldiers were twice than that of the normal skeleton soldiers, it was still a little difficult for them to fight against the barbarians.

Xu Yuan’s Night Shift skill had reached Level 2. He didn’t want to waste time fighting barbarians when he could be sleeping and gaining experience and leveling up.

Hence, Xu Yuan secretly activated the Demonic Dragon’s Blessing. The bones of the fused skeletons turned black, and a dark mist lingered around them.

“It’s happening again!”

The skeletons were changing again. Su Wan didn’t know what kind of secrets the skeleton soldiers were hiding.

Xu Yuan used the Demonic Dragon’s Blessing on the skeleton soldiers. Their attributes changed.

[Fused Low-Level Skeleton Soldiers]

[Strength: 60]

[Spirit: 36]

[Agility: 48]

[Constitution: 72]

…

Xu Yuan was a little surprised. When he fused the skeleton soldiers, their attributes doubled. Now when he used the Demonic Dragon’s Blessing, the attributes tripled further. The skeleton soldiers were six times stronger now!

The Fused skeleton soldiers killed every barbarian in the stronghold. No one could withstand them. The barbarians fell to the ground like dead flies.

Su Wan was stunned. With these skeletons, it wasn’t impossible to survive the Blood Trial.

Su Wan had felt hopeless about the Blood Trial before. She had been very stressed about it. But now she had a faint glimmer of hope.

In a short time, the skeleton soldiers wiped out the entire barbarian stronghold and Su Wan’s points rapidly increased.

She had been delayed because she had gone to save Shi Linglong. Now, her points had returned to her former glory. She should be in the first place now.

‘The road is bumpy, but the future is bright!’ Su Wan’s mood brightened.

However, the good time did not last long. The Dark Fusion only lasted for ten minutes. Now that the time was up, the fused skeleton soldiers split into two.

At the same time, the Demonic Dragon’s Blessing which was cast on the fused skeleton disappeared. This meant that the skeleton soldiers on the scene returned to their original attributes.

When Su Wan saw this, she was perplexed. She had been in a good mood but now, she saw the problem. The skeleton soldiers had special abilities, but they were unstable.

She did not know how to transform the skeleton soldiers to make them strong. If their abilities ran out before the Blood Trial finished, she would be in huge trouble.

Her future was still dark.
