Armipotent

Tang Shaoyang selected [Elemental Skeleton] evolution for the fourth Skeleton, and bright light immediately enveloped the skeleton. There was a tiny difference in the fourth Skeleton's evolution compared to the first three skeletons. The light that enveloped the fourth Skeleton was bright red, and it lasted twenty seconds longer than the first three skeletons' evolution.

As the red light dimmed down, Tang Shaoyang felt a wave of heat from the fourth skeleton hit his face. There were four noticeable changes on the fourth Skeleton. First, the skeleton frame turned light red, just like steel that was heated by the fire. Second, the light redbones were releasing a heatwave just like a microwave. Third, instead of getting taller like Elite Skeleton, the Elemental Skeleton got shorter by ten centimeters. It should be around 1.7 meters after the evolution. Fourth, The Tier C Sword turned into a flame sword, similar to the Flaming Sword in his inventory but different as the flame was less intense.

Tang Shaoyang scanned the Elemental Skeleton from top to bottom and nodded his head. From the aura released by the Elemental Skeleton, this one was stronger than the first three Skeletons. "Can you lend me your sword?" He asked for the sword as he wanted to see the change from the sword.

Different from Skelly1, who was reluctant to lend the spear to him. The Elemental Skeleton did not hesitate to lend the sword to him. It approached its Master and presented the flame sword with its two hands.

Tang Shaoyang was about to reach the sword's handle, but his hand stopped midair. He rubbed his chin for a moment and said. "You will be called Skelly2." He named the fourth skeleton. It was a lazy name, but he did that for a reason so that he could remember their names easily. Skelly2 did not protest with the name as he felt gratefulness transferred to him by Skelly2. That gratefulness made him a little guilty, but he threw away thoughts and grabbed the sword.

[Blazebone (Growth)]

Tier: C+

Bonus Attributes: +30 Strength, +50 Magic Power

Description: The sword with Fire Elemental Power and grows along with its owner.

Owner: Skelly2 (Tang Shaoyang)

Tang Shaoyang nodded his head while trying to swing the sword. He tried a few times, and he felt uncomfortable swinging such a small weapon. The sword was too light in his grip. Shaking his head, he threw Blazebone to Skelly2, and the latter caught the sword before kneeling.

"Don't be so formal. From now on, you are part of the Skelly Family." Tang Shaoyang pointed at Kaiser and Keeper with his thumb. "They are your new family, so get along with them well."

Skelly2 looked at the three Skeletons, who were looking at it in a daze. It nodded toward Tang Shaoyang and walked toward the three. As soon as Skelly2 joined them, they made loud noises, especially Kaiser and Skelly1. Kaiser and Skelly1, who looked like they were arguing early, now got along well as they welcomed Skelly2.

"Kaiser, come here. It's time for you to get some levels." Tang Shaoyang motioned his hand to the Steel Skeleton. To his surprise, the Steel Skeleton was a bit reluctant to come over, and this was getting in his head. He wondered what happened to the Skeleton, but he did not perceive anything aside from reluctance from Kaiser.

One thing was for sure, Skelly1 was in a happy mood right now, and it seemed that talking to Skelly2 was the cause of that happiness. He then cast an inquiry gaze on Keeper, who maintained his calmness from the start. There was a deep male voice in his head that rang all of a sudden, and he was sure it was Keeper's voice.

'Skelly2 is a girl, Master. It seems Kaiser and Skelly1 fancy her.' Tang Shaoyang blinked his eyes a few times while looking at Keeper. The latter nodded at him twice, indicating he did not hear it wrong. He gave Skelly2 a second look, from top to bottom, trying to find what differentiated a male skeleton from a female skeleton.

'Is it because Skelly2 is shorter?' It was common for women to be shorter than men. However, it was not accurate data to differentiate a gender when not a few women are also taller than men. Tang Shaoyang shook his head and threw away those useless thoughts before he pulled another body. He placed the body in front of Kaiser's feet and said. "Kill!"

Kaiser nodded and stuck his fingers together, then it glanced at Skelly2 before striking the man's neck. Kaiser easily penetrated the skin with his steel fingers even though the man was much higher in level. Then Kaiser pulled the man's spine, separating the man's head from his body. Tang Shaoyang was not expecting to see this and was quite surprised by how cruel this skeleton was. It never crossed in his mind to do that even once before.

However, Tang Shaoyang quickly understood why Kaiser did that. It was to impress Skelly2 as Kaiser raised the head to the air. He shook his head and checked Kaiser's level, and frowned. Kaiser's level increased to level 79, and he was sure that the man it killed just now was above level 400. Based on his calculation, Kaiser should reach level 100 easily by killing that man.

"Hmmm, interesting. Maybe evolution is the cause…." Tang Shaoyang extended his hand once more and got another man for Kaiser. This time, Kaiser just stepped on the man's head casually. Maybe it failed to impress Skelly2 early, so it did not try any other weird move.

[Do you want to proceed [Skeleton] advancement? [Yes] [No]]

[Please choose your Skeleton's advancement: (Evolution) (Class)]

'Should I choose class, or should I keep evolving this guy to its strongest form before getting it a class?' Tang Shaoyang thought it about and shared it with the spirits in his body. A lot of voices spoke in his head, and the spirits' opinions varied. However, he liked Zowen's argument in this regard.

—I assume the class is varied depending on the Skeleton Variant. Take Keeper, for example, and its classes are the basics, Warrior, Archer, and Mage, since it's just an ordinary skeleton. However, if Skelly2 chooses her class now, I believe her class is more special than just Warrior, Archer, and Mage. She will receive an advanced class than just an ordinary Skeleton. In conclusion, Keeper is your weakest skeleton right now.

Zowen provided him with a simple explanation that was easy to understand. A stronger variant would get a stronger class. With that in mind, Tang Shaoyang chose (Evolution) with no hesitation.

[Your Steel Skeleton (Kaiser) has advanced to Silver Skeleton!]

Kaiser was enveloped in bright light for twenty seconds before it revealed its new body made of silver. It was self-explanatory evolution, and Kaiser's steel body turned into a silver body. The boy now looked cleaner than before.

"I see, so there are no longer options for evolution once I choose Steel Skeleton. After Silver, maybe it will turn into a Golden Skeleton?" Tang Shaoyang guessed Kaiser's future evolution. "But I am curious. What's after Gold? This is really getting even more interesting."
