Under the boost of combat qi, the knight's short spear darted towards the 6 head wolf rider captains with a powerful momentum. If it was a normal knight's short spear, it would not be a big deal, but there was a head commander among those short spears.
On top of the armor piercing ability of the short spears, the 6 head wolf rider captains kept dodging with their mount wolves. They were not confident in their ability to block those short spears.
There were about 20 skeletons in front of the wolf riders. Of course, this was not all of the 10 orc deities' skeletons. As a deity, their fighting power depended on skeletons, so they would not be safe without enough skeletons.
Therefore, each shaman could only take out two skeletons and place them at the front of the 100 wolf riders, which was already the maximum number of skeletons.
Abel's arrow had already reached the skull of a skeleton as it flew towards the head wolf rider captains. The skeleton instinctively turned its head, trying to dodge the arrow with its weak soul fire.
However, in the human world, only Abel knew every movement of skeletons like the back of his hand. He had commanded skeletons in the Dark World for many years.
Skeletons were limited by their bones, so they could only make certain movements when they tried to dodge. Abel's arrow took advantage of this and accurately shot into the skeleton's eye. The arrow pierced through the skull's blue soul fire.
If this arrow was just an ordinary arrow, then this attack would only injure the skeleton once, and its soulfire would shrink a little, and its combat power would decrease.
However, he had attached a trace of his mental strength to the arrow. Although it was not much, it was enough to mess up the soul fire of the skeleton after hitting it.
The soul fire was the origin of a skeleton. It was the source of all its power. The most important summoning contract was inside the soul fire. When Abel inserted a sliver of power of the will, it directly rushed towards the soul fire summoning contract.
The deities' skeletons were very different from Abel's skeletons. Abel's skeletons followed the most ancient spell to summon them from a dead body. They were made directly from the bones of dead bodies, and their damage was increased by the level of the 'skeleton resurrection' spell.
The skeletons of the orc priests were a modified version of the ancient 'Skeleton Resurrection' spell. They would capture a powerful warrior and torture them inhumanely to stimulate all their negative emotions. Then, they would use a secret method to gather the negative emotions and most of their strength into their skeletons. Finally, they would form a powerful skeleton.
Ever since he got the modified version of the orc priest's "skeleton resurrection" spell, he had already done some research on the pros and cons of this spell.
Abel used the most primitive 'skeleton resurrection' spell. The skeletons he summoned did not have any powerful fighting ability. They could only absorb the battle experience of the summoner. The good thing was that Abel was a powerful Knight. He grew up in a Knight family and received the most professional Knight training.
Therefore, the skeletons' fighting ability was similar to a Knight's, but they lacked the 'skeleton control' spell. Therefore, the skeletons' attacking ability had always been a headache for Abel.
On the other hand, the skeletons of the orc deities were much more powerful. The strength of the skeletons would not be affected by the combat ability of the summoner. It was almost impossible to find a deity with a physical combat ability like Abel.
The orc priest skeletons could retain most of the power of their previous skeletons, and with the double enhancement of the 'skeleton resurrection' and the 'skeleton control' spell, the power of the orc priest skeletons was terrifying.
However, this kind of power came with a price. Since the summoning method had changed, the contract method had also changed. The original 'skeleton resurrection' spell used the soul chain as a contract method.
This kind of contract method did not have a contract pattern, and it directly affected the soul. However, the deities' skeletons must have a contract pattern in their soul fire.
After Abel's arrow hit the soul fire, the contract pattern was not affected. The contract pattern could not be damaged by physical or magic spells, but the power of the will attached to the arrow was the natural enemy of the contract pattern. It directly shattered the contract pattern on the soul fire.
As the contract pattern on the soul fire was shattered, the skeleton suddenly stopped. The soul fire in its eyes turned from blue to red. At that moment, the soul fire of the skeleton was no longer restricted by the contract pattern, and all the negative emotions in its mind took control of its body again.
The skeleton remembered the last scene of its life. The hatred from being tortured to death was the prerequisite for it to become a powerful skeleton. At that moment, the skeleton regained its memory.
It crazily turned around and agilely dodged the mount wolves of the wolf riders. The red soul fire in its eye sockets stared at its former master, a deity in a black outfit.
At that moment, the deity in a black outfit was suffering from the shock of his contract being destroyed. At the same time, all of his skeletons had lost their command. They were all instinctively running with the wolf riders.
None of the wolf riders tried to stop a skeleton. The horror and mystery of a deity was not something they could understand.
The other deities also did not care about a skeleton that was retreating. Every single deity wanted to call back their skeletons. They had just become official deities not long ago, and they were not like those old deities with huge resources. If they lost skeletons, they could always replenish them.
If they lost skeletons, they would have one less skeleton. They could not replenish them in a short period of time.
Originally, all of the deities wanted to call back their skeletons as soon as possible. However, the rules of the mission and the battle made it impossible for them to do so. Therefore, they were more than happy to see their comrades try to challenge this rule.
The skeleton approached its summoner. At that moment, the deity in a black outfit had just recovered from the shock of his soul fire. As soon as he woke up, he saw a skeleton jumping towards him. A familiar figure was howling at him from within the red soul fire.
He was very familiar with that figure. It was a Knight captain that his teacher gave him. He personally turned a living person into a skeleton bit by bit. Back then, he would always dream of this Knight captain, but he slowly got used to it, and he never had those nightmares again.
Now, looking at the red Soul Fire in front of him, looking at the figure in the Soul Fire, he felt like he was in a nightmare again.
The skeleton had countless marks of this deity, so the white bone armor did not see it as an enemy. The deity had just woken up, so he did not control the armor in time.
Therefore, the skeleton easily passed through the protection of the white bone armor and jumped onto the deity. The deity's body was already weak due to the death qi, so he immediately fell off his mount.
When the skeleton jumped onto the deity, it bit his neck. This kind of attack made the white bone armor start to reject the skeleton, but the skeleton had already tightly hugged onto the deity's body.
Everything happened too fast. The head wolf rider captain in the front was still dodging the Knight's short spear, and because of this, many of the wolf riders in the back were pierced by the short spear. Their formation was in chaos.
After the deity fell to the ground and was stepped on by a few wolf riders' mount wolves, the white bone armor disappeared. The white bone shield on his body was also gone. At that moment, the red soul fire in the skeleton's eye sockets began to burn brightly. A huge surge of energy was ignited within the soul fire.
"Boom!" With a huge explosion, a skeleton that had the appearance of a Grand Knight thanks to all sorts of enhancements exploded with its own energy source. Its aggro was completely unleashed at this moment, and a large amount of death aura spread out in all directions along with the explosion.
The deity was the first to be affected. The impact of the explosion and the broken bones directly turned him into a pile of junk.
Afterward, the death qi spread out, and a large amount of life force was sucked out of the surrounding wolf riders. Those wolf riders and their mount wolves looked like they had aged a few decades in a short period of time.
Most of the deities around this deity were deities, but since they were first knocked down and then stepped on by wolf riders, the other 9 deities were lucky enough not to be affected.
