98: Chapter 98 The Little Skeleton Opened His Ghostly Aura Again!

"Hey!"

"Little Skeleton, you've grown so huge, are you planning a rebellion?"

Facing Slime's questioning, Little Skeleton hurriedly cupped its hands together and lowered its head very respectfully.

"Big Brother, what are you saying?"

"Not to mention that my strength is currently inferior to yours, even if my strength were truly to surpass yours in the future, I would never usurp the throne or fight for your position."

"I am your second brother for a day, and I will be your second brother for a lifetime."

Slime fell silent.

It could sense that Little Skeleton's words came from the bottom of its heart.

This guy...

Why do you have to be so sincere?

You're making King Slime so touched.

Slime flapped its dragon wings and flew onto the top of Little Skeleton's head.

Nowadays, Little Skeleton's head alone was comparable to the size of a room.

Slime hung on top, looking like a little blue dot.

You couldn't even see it if you didn't look closely.

Slime extended its palm and gently patted Little Skeleton's massive head.

"This King Slime has already sensed your sincerity."

"From now on, whenever there is a BOSS, I will definitely prioritize giving it to you."

The ghost fire in Little Skeleton's eye sockets suddenly flared up.

"Thank you, Big Brother!"

With such a Big Brother covering for it, why would it ever usurp the throne?

Isn't it great to live the good life behind Big Brother?

It's safe, and there are BOSSes to kill.

It can stack Heartsteel, and it can also stack Tank Engine.

There is nothing happier in the world than this.

The one who truly wants to usurp the throne is Iron-Eating Beast.

It was still doing push-ups on the side.

Brave Iron-Eating Beast, fearless of difficulties!

Let's go! Let's go!

As long as my strength is strong enough, I will be the boss!!

Watching the three living treasures, Lu Yuan climbed out of bed and stretched.

"Alright, our mission is already complete."

"Let's go see how the other two teammates are doing."

Afterwards, Lu Yuan took the three Magic Pets and sprinted in the direction of the other two teammates.

...

Swish swish swish!!!

In a lush, ancient jungle.

A girl with twin tails, glowing with red light all over and wielding a giant scythe, was sweeping through the jungle frantically.

She kept swinging the scythe in her hand.

Everywhere she passed, she left only blood and severed limbs on the ground.

"Hehehe..."

The twin-tailed girl's eyes had completely turned blood-red, and she parted her scarlet lips, continuously letting out hair-raising laughter.

"Do you see? This is how we should be."

"Instead of acting dumb and cute there, trying to gain others' sympathy."

"Kill!!!"

"Hehehe..."

The twin-tailed girl dragged her giant scarlet scythe and rushed out again.

Swish swish swish...

All the Goblin monsters on the path, as soon as they showed their heads, were instantly dismembered, turning into severed limbs scattered on the ground.

Soon, the entire ancient jungle turned into a dead silence, with only the foul stench of blood drifting through the jungle.

Pitter-patter, pitter-patter...

Slightly lazy footsteps approached from afar.

Looking at the severed limbs and remains scattered everywhere, as well as the bloody scene, Lu Yuan froze in place.

???

"If I remember correctly, this area should be Cheng Niannian's responsibility, right?"

"How did it turn into this?"

The image of that cute twin-tailed girl appeared in his mind.

Hmm...

No matter how you look at it, her art style shouldn't match this, right?

The three Magic Pets were also very shocked.

"Master, that twin-tailed girl has issues."

Little Skeleton's voice came from the Magic Pet space, sounding slightly grave.

"When I first saw her, I sensed a dangerous aura on her."

As a squishy Skeleton Soldier, it was born with a very keen sense of dangerous auras for the sake of survival.

When it first met Cheng Niannian, it had sensed a dangerous aura from that cute little girl.

It was just that the little girl's disguise was indeed very good.

Even making Little Skeleton think for a moment that it was an illusion.

Just then, a twin-tailed girl wearing a pristine white long dress walked out gracefully from the depths of the jungle.

"Big Brother Lu Yuan, why are you here?"

Cheng Niannian's voice was still as soft and sweet as ever, making one feel an itch in their heart upon hearing it.

However, in a place where the ground was covered in blood and the severed limbs of monsters, this not only wouldn't make one feel she was cute and kind, it would actually make people feel terrified.

Of course, Lu Yuan was not afraid.

"Did you kill these monsters?"

"Yep~" Cheng Niannian nodded vigorously, raising her head slightly in a very proud manner.

"How is it? Big Brother Lu Yuan, am I very impressive?"

Lu Yuan nodded, agreeing completely.

His three Magic Pets were so abnormal that they had only just cleared all the mobs and the BOSS half an hour ago.

As a result, after arriving here, he found that Cheng Niannian had cleared all the mobs by herself.

This strength could definitely be considered quite astonishing.

"Woo woo~"

Just then, in the distance, a giant Goblin with bull horns slowly emerged from a blood-colored magic circle.

[Lord-level BOSS: Bull-Headed Goblin]

"Roar!!"

The Bull-Headed Goblin roared at the sky, letting out an angry shout.

Then it pounded its chest with its fists, emitting a rumbling sound.

"Are you the ones who slaughtered my descendants?"

"Today, I shall use your heads to pay tribute to them!!"

Then it drew a giant axe and walked toward Lu Yuan.

Lu Yuan didn't speak, just calmly extended his palm.

Three summoning circles appeared out of thin air.

Slime, Little Skeleton, Iron-Eating Beast.

They appeared from the summoning circles one after another and rushed directly toward the Bull-Headed Goblin.

Little Skeleton and Iron-Eating Beast charged at the front, responsible for blocking the BOSS head-on.

Slime was outputting damage frantically in the sky.

Boom boom boom...!!

Almost in just one encounter, the Bull-Headed Goblin BOSS's HP dropped by more than half.

???

The Bull-Headed Goblin BOSS was dumbfounded.

Who the hell is the BOSS here?

With a clang, the Bull-Headed Goblin BOSS threw the giant axe on the ground and knelt on both knees.

"If I say I was just passing by, would you believe me?"

It wasn't that it was a coward, but that the three Magic Pets were too abnormal.

Admitting defeat, of course, was useless.

Little Skeleton had long set its sights on this BOSS's head.

Soon, Lu Yuan received a system notification.

[Ding, Skeleton Soldier killed Lord-level BOSS Bull-Headed Goblin, EXP + 159320]

[Tank Engine + 1]

[Maximum HP increased by 5%, body size increased by 5%.]

Nowadays, Little Skeleton's base stats were already very exaggerated.

Every percentage increase was very exaggerated.

One stack of Tank Engine directly added 36,000 points of maximum HP to it.

And one meter of height.

Sensing that its attributes had received another huge boost, Little Skeleton instinctively bowed slightly, not letting others notice that its body size had grown again.

It cupped its hands.

"Thank you, Big Brother, for letting me take the BOSS's head."

Slime waved its hand very generously.

"Don't be polite, as Big Brother, this is what I should do."

Lu Yuan could barely hold it in.

This Little Skeleton was just too sly.

It had coaxed Slime into a daze.

Even at this point, it still hadn't realized that Little Skeleton's stats had completely crushed it.

Although in terms of strength, Little Skeleton was not yet a match for Slime.

However, following this trend, it wouldn't be long before Little Skeleton would crush Slime in every aspect.

Although Lu Yuan saw everything, he didn't remind Slime.

He also wanted to see what Slime's reaction would be when it found out it had been surpassed by Little Skeleton.
