172: Extracting toxins (Highly praised, extra update +1)

The distance between Gu Qinghan and the Contractors was originally about a hundred meters.

The moment the Masked Man announced the start, more than a dozen Contractors rushed towards him.

They had seen Gu Qinghan's methods and were wary of his massive number of Skeletons.

Gu Qinghan also equipped his gold-grade deaths glory weapon the moment the battle began.

This time, he didn't dare to hold back at all, directly summoning all three of his Death Mutated Creatures.

The Bear King, the moment he appeared, transformed into a small mountain and charged towards two Contractors.

Xiao Hei, meanwhile, followed closely behind the Bear King, ready to ambush at any moment.

As soon as the Crow King appeared, it let out an unpleasant cry, simultaneously shaking off a large number of feathers.

His body suddenly soared, and dozens of Sky Eye Skeletons appeared on his back.

Those black feathers were caught by the airflow, flying towards the Contractors like a black tornado.

This wasn't all; countless Skeletons of various types emerged from in front of Gu Qinghan, forming a tide that engulfed the Contractors.

This was the harvest of Gu Qinghan's subordinates in the necromantic space, which had once again formed a considerable force.

Beside Gu Qinghan, there were also more than twenty Extreme Ice Wizard Skeletons releasing skills, restricting the Contractors' advance.

The wide battlefield seemed to become crowded in an instant.

The Masked Man had now lifted the restrictions on the people below the stage; they could all move freely.

Chu Tian went to the other two military Professionals, exchanged a glance, and then quietly watched the battle on Gu Qinghan's side.

One of the military Professionals sighed and said,

“I never imagined that our Huaguo would have such a strong person.”

“Indeed,” another military Professional also nodded, “What is his profession? This is too exaggerated.”

His voice trembled slightly as he spoke.

It wasn't that he felt fear, but rather a sense of shock.

One against twenty was a situation almost no one would favor, yet Gu Qinghan directly held his ground.

Moreover, the Skeletons in front of Gu Qinghan were simply increasing in number.

Chu Tian nodded, staring intently at the scene on the stage, and suddenly noticed that some frail Skeletons were different.

He frowned, standing on tiptoe to get a clearer look.

Most other Professionals were doing the same, as the battlefield there was too large.

The Masked Man seemed to have guessed their thoughts and directly summoned a light screen in front of them.

On the light screen, it seemed to be a high-altitude perspective, showing a panoramic view of the arena.

Not a single one of the twenty Contractors was able to cross half the field, all of them being held back by Skeletons or Death Mutated Creatures.

The Bear King, facing two Contractors, seemed a bit restricted but was able to hold them off for a long time due to his exceptionally high defense.

Xiao Hei's defense was very weak, but he was able to use the Bear King's size to skirmish, constantly attacking the two Contractors.

Furthermore, with many Skeletons assisting, these two Contractors would definitely not be able to break free anytime soon.

The Skeletons were concentrated more in another area, where there were nearly ten Contractors.

They had been forced together by the countless Skeletons, filled with frustration but with nowhere to vent.

Some Contractors in the back could use ranged attacks, but at this moment, they were being suppressed by the Skeletons wielding giant crossbows on the opposite side, appearing quite disheveled.

Around these melee Contractors, some seemingly frail Skeletons, after dying, did not turn into a pile of broken bones.

“What is that? Is it a trap?”

A Professional turned to another, asking somewhat familiarly.

The Professional who was asked was also a bit confused; he hesitated for a long time before finally saying uncertainly:

“It looks like a long spear? No, the length is too short.”

People speculated about what these things standing on the ground were, but in the next moment, they saw the answer.

Above Gu Qinghan's head, a ferocious Bone Spear rapidly condensed.

The moment this Bone Spear appeared, the short Bone Spears on the ground all began to tremble.

After a brief tremor, they rose into the sky, transforming into hundreds of Bone Spears, aimed at the group of Contractors in the back.

“Not good, he wants to reduce our numbers first!”

A Contractor in the back immediately realized something was wrong, and then saw dense Bone Spears shooting towards them.

However, apart from Gu Qinghan's Bone Spear, those short Bone Spears could only cause them minor damage.

Almost instantly, their wounds healed back to normal.

Seeing this scene, the Professionals below the stage immediately sighed in their hearts.

Such a magnificent attack, yet it unexpectedly only had such a weak effect.

However, this was merely a test by Gu Qinghan.

It was his first time seeing Contractors with ranged attacks, and he wanted to test their defensive capabilities.

The result was obvious: they were indeed a bit more fragile, but only when compared to the melee Contractors.

Gu Qinghan's failed attack also quickly boosted the morale of those Contractors.

The Contractors in the back shouted loudly at the front:

“Everyone charge! Kill this guy, and those people are nothing to worry about!

Don't worry about us, these minor injuries heal in the blink of an eye!”

Gu Qinghan naturally heard this roar; he suddenly seemed to remember something and removed a piece of equipment from his body.

Then, he took out the item he had just bid on from his necromantic space:

【Flower Grafting: Can extract effects from equipment or items and condense them into a separate item】

So much had happened just now that he had almost forgotten about this thing.

There were too many obstacles between him and the Contractors; the opponents couldn't see his movements.

However, the crowd below the stage could clearly see Gu Qinghan's small actions.

“What is he doing? Why is he taking out two items?”

Chu Tian frowned; in his opinion, Gu Qinghan should continue to use attacks to deplete the Contractors' stamina at this moment.

Judging from Gu Qinghan's previous battle, his Skeletons were not infinite.

If these Contractors killed all these Skeletons, then Gu Qinghan would fall into a dead end.

But he didn't know about the fierce poison inner armor Gu Qinghan held in his hand.

“This thing should work, right?”

Gu Qinghan placed the item on the fierce poison inner armor and silently chose to use it.

The fierce poison inner armor suddenly burst into a faint green light, then converged towards the item Gu Qinghan was holding.

In just a few seconds, the fierce poison inner armor returned to its original state, and the item in Gu Qinghan's hand transformed into a green pillar.

【Source of Fierce Poison: Can enhance a skill, imbuing it with poison effects based on the skill's characteristics.

Warning: After use, the user will also be affected by some of the poison effects.】

Gu Qinghan didn't even think about it and directly used it on his Death's Whisper · Command, which had leveled up twice.

That warning had no deterrent effect on him; a Necromancer was completely immune to poison, so who was it trying to scare?
