Chapter 142 Commander's Potential, Hope for Traveling Between Two Worlds
The battle began, with five skeletons approaching from all directions, their bone claws gleaming with a sinister light. However, Olaf showed no sign of panic.
He gripped the bone battle axe tightly, raising it high above his head as if it were an indestructible barrier, completely concealing himself within it.
The bone claws struck the battle axe with a dull thud, but failed to penetrate Olaf's defenses. Olaf, using the battle axe as cover, cleverly launched a counterattack.
Each swing of the battle axe precisely targets the skeleton's weakness, weakening its fighting power one by one.
Fangzhou watched and recorded Olaf's performance from the sidelines.
Since it hasn't learned the [Blood Rage] skill, its attack power isn't top-tier, except for its two battle axes.
However, thanks to its [Rage] skill, it can accumulate rage every time it takes an attack or successfully hits an enemy.
The accumulation of rage not only enhances its stamina but also gradually increases its attack damage.
As the battle continued, Olaf's every attack was like a thunderbolt, leaving the skeletons unable to withstand it.
A few minutes later, the five skeletons fell one by one, and Olaf won easily once again.
Fangzhou nodded in satisfaction and upgraded the challenge to ten skeletons.
This number of enemies was enough to encircle Olaf and pose a threat to him.
Faced with a large number of skeletons, Olaf did not rush to engage in a head-on confrontation, but instead demonstrated extraordinary battlefield insight.
Quickly assessing the situation, it charged out of the skeletons' encirclement like an arrow.
Its speed was so great that the skeletons were unable to catch up for a while.
Olaf did not flee blindly, but instead deliberately headed towards a narrow crevice in the mine.
The complex terrain here greatly limited their numerical advantage, preventing them from simultaneously besieging Olaf.
Olaf then faced the surging skeletons and activated the [Provocation] skill on the first few.
A surge of intense rage erupted, striking directly at the skeletons' soul fire.
As if spurred on by an invisible force, the skeletons abandoned their companions and rushed toward Olaf in a frenzy.
At the same time, Olaf activated the [Berserker's Gauntlet] skill.
A layer of golden light surrounded its body, instantly boosting its defensive capabilities.
Even the skeletons' frenzied attacks could not cause it any real damage.
Olaf, relying on the advantageous terrain of the mine crevice, remained as steady as a rock, standing firm no matter how the skeletons attacked. The bone battle axe in his hand was like a scythe of death, reaping the lives of the skeletons time and time again.
A dozen minutes later, without even using his final [Berserk] skill, Olaf had already defeated all ten skeletons, and the damage he suffered was negligible.
Witnessing all this, a satisfied smile appeared on Fangzhou's face.
To be fair, Olaf's performance exceeded his expectations.
Not only does it shine with the Berserker's professional skills, but more importantly, the combat wisdom it inherited from General Ning Feihu is also fully demonstrated in actual combat.
In Fangzhou's view, Olaf is not only a powerful skeleton warrior, but also has the potential to become a skeleton commander.
This is something worth exploring further.
If Olaf's combat wisdom could be extended to the entire skeleton army, allowing even the mindless skeletons to advance and retreat strategically and cooperate with each other, it would undoubtedly greatly reduce Ark's command pressure, allowing him to focus more on spellcasting and support.
In this way, his overall combat effectiveness will definitely see a qualitative leap!
With a casual use of [Resurrection], Olaf healed the skeletons that had been knocked down, and Ark withdrew the continuous supply of mental energy to Olaf.
A flash of purple light appeared in Olaf's skull, and his massive body instantly turned into a pile of broken bones.
Compared to ordinary skeletons that only require a small amount of mental energy to exist, Olaf, despite his astonishing combat power,
However, it also consumes a lot of mental energy.
It can be used as a trump card or a decisive factor in battle, but it is difficult to use as a regular force for the time being.
Fangzhou was not disappointed. Being able to summon such a powerful heroic spirit, it was only natural to expend a little more mental energy.
In short, this experiment gave him a more intuitive and comprehensive understanding of the powerful force of the [Berserker Earth Mark].
We already have a general idea of how to improve our combat system.
After summarizing the gains and shortcomings, Ark returned to the tent, drank a bottle of [Soul Soothing Potion], and immersed his mind in the skeleton clone.
Skeleton Squad, activate!
A blood moon hangs high in the sky over the desolate plains.
As the skeleton clones ventured deeper, the environment the Ark was in was no longer a wasteland of bones and scales; occasionally, one could see some rotten, foul-smelling soil, and the terrain gradually changed from a plain to low hills.
Therefore, the Ark named this area where the skeleton warriors and zombies met "Corpse Hills".
On an unremarkable hill, the soul fire of the skeleton clone suddenly shone brightly.
Subsequently, under Ark's orders, the skeleton minions who had been protecting him tightly when he "logged off" also began to act in an orderly manner.
Soon, several shattered skeleton warriors with dim soul flames were carried up.
These were all spoils of war that roamed the vicinity during the Ark's "offline" period and were casually hunted down by the loyal skeleton minions.
Fangzhou killed these unfortunate skeleton warriors one by one with a single shot, absorbing the essence of their corpses while checking his attribute panel.
After the main body's frantic consumption of purifying the blasphemous aura, the skeleton clone's hard-earned hundreds of contribution points were reduced to a mere fraction, not even enough to refine the [Skeleton Armor] to +1.
A sense of urgency rose in Fangzhou's heart. He looked at the skeleton minions standing ready at any moment, and his soul fire revealed a feeling of anger at their lack of ambition.
Come on, my slaves... my brothers!
If you guys don't work hard, what will I, the boss, do but eat air?!
Just as he was about to command the skeleton army to continue their sweeping hunt, the Ark Soulfire suddenly trembled, and a feeling of excitement welled up in his heart.
Berserker's Mark!
The clone's attribute panel equipment slot also contains the rare purple item, [Berserker's Mark]!
Fangzhou was pleasantly surprised and conducted a self-sensing exercise. Sure enough, he found a constantly flashing, dazzling purple light spot in the blazing soul fire of the skeleton clone.
He was secretly amazed, but then quickly realized what was happening.
The Berserker's Mark is a very special soul artifact that is directly nurtured within one's own soul.
Could it be that the [Berserker's Mark] can not only be used on the main body, but also on the clones? Ark's mind raced, filled with surprise.
This discovery means that he can use this soul artifact more flexibly, bringing an unprecedented boost to the combat power of his skeleton clone.
