Undead Mage: I Have a Skeleton Clone Chapter 379 - 292: Day and Night Toiling, the Wolves’ Wealth
In the following days, apart from his Cultivation, Fang Zhou controlled his Clone to wreak havoc on the Corpse Hills. He commanded his Skeleton underlings to ambush the Zombie Wolves, devouring them to grow stronger.
However, as ti went on, the Zombie Wolves demonstrated an unexpected level of intelligence. After the first few ambushes, during which the Skeleton Clone killed five of the wolves that were over two ters long, they began to act more cautiously. They no longer moved alone, but in groups of two or three.
They maintained a safe distance from each other to provide mutual support. Even when leaving their lair to forage, they didn’t stray far from their companions. This made things more difficult for Fang Zhou and his Skeleton Legion.
Nevertheless, these changes did not cause Fang Zhou any real problem. Their clustering together only made it easier for the Skeleton Clone to hunt them.
Although Fang Zhou hadn’t fought the largest Zombie Wolves head-on, he knew from his experience hunting the smaller ones that the Skeleton Clone’s current combat strength was more than enough to annihilate the small pack in a direct confrontation.
The only catch was that the Skeleton Clone might sustain so damage, but that was only if it fought alone.
Considering he also had powerful allies like Olaf and Tidamia, plus his nurous Skeleton underlings for support, he was fully capable of adopting a more aggressive strategy and launching a fierce attack on the wolf pack. The reason he chose this slow, grinding strategy was due to his cautious personality.
When facing these unprecedented enemies, the more he learned, the better prepared he would be, and the more certain he could be of the battle’s outco. Therefore, he preferred to spend more ti gradually wearing down the wolf pack’s strength rather than rushing in and risking unnecessary losses. This approach, though slow, was far more secure.
「...」
Upon the Corpse Hills, a Zombie moved sluggishly. Its movents were slow and chanical as it instinctively wandered among the ruins.
Suddenly, a chill surged from all directions. Two long shadows stretched across the ground—the silhouettes of two Zombie Wolves. Their bodies were more massive than an ordinary Zombie’s, exceeding three ters in length, with broad shoulders, thick waists, and clearly defined muscles.
The two Zombie Wolves surrounded the staggering Zombie from the left and right and began to harass it continuously. Their movents were agile and fierce, with each charge causing the Zombie to stumble.
For these lone, ordinary Zombies, the Zombie Wolf Pack was like a top predator in the natural world. Not only did they possess a massive size advantage, but they also excelled at overwhelming their prey with numbers, easily driving them into a desperate situation.
Soon, under the combined attack of the two Zombie Wolves, the Zombie was finally overwheld. It collapsed to the ground, becoming their feast.
However, just as they were savoring their victory and preparing to enjoy their prey, a muffled sound ca from nearby.
BOOM!
With the sound, a pile of bone fragnts suddenly exploded. A dark figure shot out like an arrow loosed from a bow, crossing several dozen ters in an instant to appear beside one of the Zombie Wolves.
It was a figure holding a Long Spear. The tip of the spear carved a perfect arc through the air, stabbing toward the Zombie Wolf with suffocating speed and power. As the spear tip neared, the air seed to compress to its very limit.
A loud bang followed as a ring of white shockwaves rapidly spread out from the spear tip, covering a radius of nearly ten feet. Under this blow, the Zombie Wolf’s head instantly crumbled.
Half of its skull turned to dust as a mixture of blood and brain matter sprayed out, staining the surrounding bone fragnts. The blow was so ferocious that the mutated Zombie Wolf fell under the Skeleton Clone’s spear without even a chance to let out a final wail.
At the sa ti, the other Zombie Wolf sensed the danger. It roared, opening its gaping, bloody maw to expose sharp fangs as it pounced toward the Skeleton Clone.
With the advantage on his side, Fang Zhou certainly would not retreat. He steadily held the Corpse Long Spear horizontally before him as a powerful force surged within him, coalescing into an indestructible Battle Qi Shield. The shield emitted a faint, eerie glow, as if it could repel any attack.
From his observations over the past few days, Fang Zhou had co to completely understand the characteristics of these Zombie Wolves. Although their bodies were strong and their attacks were fierce, they had almost no effective thods of attack besides using their claws and fangs. Most importantly, their strength and speed had both declined after an intense hunt, which was precisely why Fang Zhou chose this mont to strike.
When the Zombie Wolf’s fangs slamd into the Battle Qi Shield, Fang Zhou felt a strong impact. But this force was negligible in the face of the Battle Qi Shield. The glow on the shield flickered faintly before completely absorbing the impact. Fang Zhou’s body only swayed for a mont before he steadied himself.
CRASH!
Holding the Long Spear, Fang Zhou charged forward without slowing, ramming fiercely into the Zombie Wolf. The imnse force of the impact created a harsh screech as it tore through the air. Bone fragnts scattered in all directions, and the scent of blood imdiately filled the air.
Under such power, the Zombie Wolf’s strong body seed fragile. It was savagely knocked to the ground, losing its ability to resist.
