Jichen’s gaze shifted slightly and he saw, in front of the vortex, a peculiar crystal device embedded in the ground.

A red energy stream emanated from it, connecting to the Mystic Realm Gate.

That crystal device should be the energy source of this Mystic Realm Gate.

The skeletal side clearly recognized its importance and dispatched heavy forces to protect it.

Hundreds of black skeletons surrounded it tightly, leaving no gaps exposed.

In addition, there were thousands of white skeletons around, serving as cannon fodder and meat shields.

Within the surrounding ruins and forests, skeletal hounds were igniting fires and moving swiftly, while skeletal eagles circled in the sky.

They were searching for any opportunity to exploit.

And the skeletal mages, who had yet to make an appearance, revealed themselves among the skeletal horde at this moment.

Tier 3, 5-star.

It seemed that those skeletal sorcerers were the most powerful skeletons capable of passing through the Mystic Realm Gate.

Their strength was within his estimated range and not exaggerated.

As Jichen pondered on how to deal with those skeletal sorcerers effectively, a particularly muscular and towering figure suddenly emerged from the skeletal horde.

Standing at 8 feet tall, its skeletal frame was adorned with a heavy, full-body bone armor, wielding a massive bone axe.

Eerie red flames flickered within its eye sockets.

At first glance, it was clear that it was no ordinary skeleton.

[The vanguard general of the Skeleton King has descended to the main world with the responsibility of protecting the entrance to the secret realm.]

Tsk!

No wonder these brainless skeletons were so organized.

They could restrain the skeletons, knew how to use cannon fodder, and knew how to hide the skeleton archers in the dark to launch sneak attacks.

It turned out that there was a Skeleton Commander commanding from behind.

On the human side, there were heroes with special abilities and powerful special units.

Then, the monsters and other chaotic factions would also have similar units.

That was the Monster Commander.

They often had high intelligence and could use tactics and strategies like humans.

Among them, the higher-level beings possessed intelligence comparable to that of humans and other races. If they had approached the situation with their usual perspective, they would have likely suffered a great loss.

The level of trouble had now escalated even further.

At that moment, the Mystic Realm Gate suddenly rippled.

Hundreds of skeletons, a mix of white skeletons, black skeletons, and Netherfire

Skeleton Hound, emerged from it and joined the main force.

A serious expression appeared on Jichen’s face.

There was no more time to delay.

The longer it dragged on, the greater the numbers would become, making the battle increasingly difficult.

“Full assault!”

“Ding- You have entered battle. Morale checks in progress… Our overall morale is 45 points…”

Fortunately, despite being at a disadvantage in morale, it was still acceptable.

After all, there were just too many skeletons.

The flame in the skeleton commander’s eyes flickered as it noticed their advance.

As the vanguard general appointed by the Skeleton King, it did not allow any creature to disrupt the gate and prevent the king’s arrival.

Raising its giant axe and pointing it at the enemy, it emitted a harsh grinding sound from its mouth.

In the next moment, a large wave of skeletons surged forward.

Boom-

Water arrows exploded, shattering the skeletons into pieces. Bone spikes rained down, piercing through countless skulls.

However, for the thousands of skeletons, these fallen skeletons were just a drop in the ocean. They couldn’t even cause a ripple.

When the numbers reached a certain point, their individual significance diminished.

The surging skeleton sea, like a tsunami, quickly passed through the long-range firepower zone and engaged the Naga warriors in close combat.

With each swing of their bone blades, these fierce warriors with serpent-like bodies swept away a circle of white skeletons, leaving shattered bones in their wake.

As for the cannon fodder, their worn-out weapons couldn’t even break through the defense of the Naga warriors. They could only offer their necks to be struck down.

The elite pirates faced the white skeletons with a calm and confident demeanor. They skillfully evaded attacks and struck with precision, using sharp blades to sever the heads of the white skeletons.

These men, accustomed to fighting at sea, had extensive combat experience and were more than capable.

The sea pixies occasionally unleashed spells at the densely packed skeleton horde. Each time, a dozen or more water arrows were released, causing intense explosions and creating a blank space amidst the chaos.

Different units cooperated with each other as the defensive line steadily advanced towards the crystal apparatus.

However, Jichen’s expression did not show much satisfaction. He knew that the real challenge lay with the higher-level black skeletons, skeleton hounds, and the lurking skeleton sorcerers.

And there was also the skeleton commander who had been commanding them all along.

“My Lord, we have to pay attention to the sky,” Alice suddenly whispered.

Jichen looked up and saw dozens of skeleton eagles diving from above, their eyes fixed on the sea pixies.

Clearly, the skeleton commander had recognized the threat posed by these little creatures and intended to launch a secret attack.

“Murlocs, protect the sea pixies! Use your tridents to shoot those skeleton eagles’ asses!”

Upon hearing the command, the Murlocs immediately redirected their aim. Their tridents shot up into the air like anti-aircraft projectiles.

Swish-

More than half of the skeleton eagles were directly struck by the incoming tridents, shattering them into pieces.

But there were still a few descending.

As undead creatures, they had no sense of fear.

Under the command of the higher-ranking skeletons, their focus was always directed towards the enemy.

However, what they failed to see was that after smashing their counterparts, the tridents, under the control of the Murlocs, made a U-turn in the air, rapidly catching up to them.

The remaining skeleton eagles were punctured in their rear ends one by one.

Shattered bones fell from the sky.

The aerial threat was neutralized!

Returning their gaze to the ground, with the coordinated efforts of various units, the mere 1-star white skeletons were no match for them. They fell like wheat.

Although it meant little to the overwhelming numbers of white skeletons, even if they stood there and allowed themselves to be hacked away, it would take an eternity to chop them all down!

But Jichen’s objective was never to eliminate them all.

His goal was to reach the crystal apparatus!

If they could destroy or disable the crystal apparatus, everything would become much easier!
