The Dragonkin monsters were defeated.
Although the skeleton soldiers could only exist for 44 seconds, these dozens of seconds were enough to determine the outcome of the battle.
Bai Xiaowen maximized the use of these skeleton soldiers, driving them to the side of the Dragonkin leader Nakitas as much as possible. Before being swung to death by Nakitas' broadsword, even a single slash and a dozen points of damage would be a bonus.
Many a little makes a mickle. Nakitas had already lost a lot of his HP due to the Butcher's Decay. Under the continuous suicidal attacks of the skeleton soldiers, his HP was dropping at an even faster rate.
The Butcher did not have much HP left. Bai Xiaowen withdrew it at the right time to join in the killing of the other Dragonkin monsters. Relying on the passive effect of the Slaughterhouse, the Butcher's HP slowly increased.
It could not be helped. Qiao Rui's "Life Healing" skill was essentially the energy of life. Like the healing spells of the Holy Series, it would have a negative effect on the undead that was full of dark and negative energy. Even if Qiao Rui subjectively regarded the Butcher as an ally, it could not change this fact.
To heal the undead creatures, only skills such as Shadow Healing and Withering Entanglement were effective, but these skills often could not heal living creatures.
However, it was fine as long as the Butcher did not die. The appearance of more than 100 skeleton soldiers was enough to change the situation of the battle. Moreover, as time passed and the number of dead increased, more skeleton soldiers would be transformed. Delifa's Corpse Resurrection skill would continue to take effect after it was activated, but it would constantly reduce the user's MP.
Of course, the skeleton soldiers that were generated later were not lucky enough to enjoy the bonus of the Wrath Claw's Howl and the bonus of the Commander's Roar. They were weaker.
"Filthy monsters!"
Nakitas spat out a mouthful of frost, and seven or eight skeleton soldiers in the cone-shaped area in front of him were frozen into ice sculptures. He raised his broadsword high up, and with a slash, the few unlucky skeleton soldiers were all scraped into bone fragments.
But it was useless. The two skills had only killed less than ten skeletons, and there were still dozens of skeletons to fill in the gaps. Nakitas' mental strength was limited, and it was not enough to support him to cast too many skills.
After the Dragonkin monsters fell into a disadvantageous position, some of them began to flee. Among them, the surviving elite Snowland Kobold Wizards and Gnoll Warriors made up the majority. These two tribes belonged to the "vassal tribes" of the dragon race, also known as the Dragon's Kin (the dragon race did not admit that kobolds had dragon blood). They were more wretched, and fighting to the death was not their style.
The remaining stubborn dragonkin monsters fell like wheat being harvested.
In the end, Nakitas was the only Dragonkin monster left alive on the frozen lake. However, his HP had already fallen to about one-third.
At this time, the duration of the skeleton soldiers had already expired, and the main force besieging Nakitas was Bai Xiaowen's summoned creatures. As for the elite ghosts and spiders under Gloria's command, Bai Xiaowen did not want them to even touch the Boss.
"○ (^ i ^) っ …"
The Butcher, who had returned to full HP and was full of vigor again, stood in front of Nakitas again. He bared his teeth, and his fat face revealed a smile that made Nakitas extremely angry.
Despite his anger, a sense of helplessness welled up in Nakitas' heart. This was not an illusion. The Butcher's rotting toxin had once again taken effect, greatly reducing Nakitas' defense and damage output against the Butcher.
"The dragon will eventually return, and you will all become food!"
After uttering the last curse, Nakitas's last sliver of HP was depleted, and he fell on his back.
Since then, the four Commander-level Dragonkin monsters had all died. Bai Xiaowen didn't want to chase after the escaping Snowy Kobolds and Gnolls. It would be bad if the Snowy Kobolds and Gnolls were to take advantage of the situation.
The White Phoenix team patiently waited for the end of the quest. During this process, Qiao Rui was still patrolling the surrounding situation through the Falcon Spirit to prevent the possible siege of the next wave of Dragonkin monsters — although the possibility was relatively low.
Taking advantage of this time, Bai Xiaowen took out the treasure chests he had obtained from this battle and opened them one by one.
Four Gold Treasure Chests and seven Silver Treasure Chests.
"Including the previous Black-Scaled Earth Dragon commander, this quest actually requires us to kill five Commander-level monsters to complete …" Li Shuyi sighed.
"More Commander-level monsters means more rewards." Bai Xiaowen smiled and said, "Let's open these three Level 7 Commander-level Treasure Chests first. One for each of us. Let's relax a little."
The three Level 7 Commander-level Treasure Chests all had a C rating, and each of them had a chance to draw. Of course, the Commander-level Treasure Chests also came with a lot of Psionic Points.
Li Shuyi chose the Half-Dragon Boss Bucky's Treasure Chest. After opening it, he drew a skill book.
[Poison Burst Skill Book: Teaches you the Poison Burst skill.]
[Poison Burst: Passive. You can apply poison on the blade of your sword. Your normal attack will poison the target. The target will receive 6 poison damage (equivalent to the user's Profession Level) every 5 seconds for 15 seconds. The effect can be stacked up to 10 times. Active activation of Poison Burst will cause a one-time explosion and remove all the poison stacks.]
This skill was very powerful. It was a combination of continuous damage and explosive damage. It was because Bai Xiaowen had seen this skill that he was extremely wary of Markey. Of course, Markey had other skills to complement it. He had a multi-piercing skill that could add multiple stages of damage in one attack. He could deal 10 layers of poison passivity in the shortest time possible, so he was especially terrifying.
Obviously, this kind of skill that relied on attack speed was the most suitable for Li Shuyi.
"I don't have a slot to learn this skill. Unless I forget the combo skill, "Li Shuyi said.
"No, your combo skill is now a triple combo. Although its star level is a little low, it is very compatible with your fighting style and the output style of this new skill. You must keep it," Bai Xiaowen said. "The other two skills are a sudden attack and a life-saving and area-of-effect skill. They are very suitable for you. Unless you encounter a better skill of the same type, you must not change them."
"Then … I can only wait until I become a Hero and have an extra skill slot to learn this skill," Li Shuyi said after thinking for a while.
"Junior, you are quite lucky." Qiao Rui smiled and handed over the golden Treasure Chest in his hand. "You can open this chest too."
"That's not possible. Sister Qiao, you can open the chest yourself." Li Shuyi was very tempted. The pleasure of drawing cards from a small chest was indescribable. It was easy to get addicted …
Qiao Rui was very perceptive. How could he not know Li Shuyi's true thoughts? He smiled and shook his head, handing over the chest again.
"Then I won't stand on ceremony."
