The terrifying Frost Sword Guard
If Lin Yuan were to pick up a shield now, it would be no problem for him to moonlight as a Shield Warrior.
Just look at the skills in his skill bar.
Shield Wall, Shield Block, Shield Bash, Aid.
These are all core skills of a Shield Warrior.
What's the most crucial point?
Lin Yuan doesn't need healing.
Releasing an Undead Summon at will gives him a hundred lives.
It could be said that it's hard for Lin Yuan to die now.
Looking at the vast Undead Army before him,
Lin Yuan fell into deep thought.
“How come I feel like I've gone down the wrong path? It's developing more and more in the direction of a BOSS.”
Click.
The sound of bones dislocating startled Lin Yuan.
He looked back,
and saw Ghost running over, holding a chair made entirely ofspine, as if seeking praise.
Ghost placed the chair on the ground and gestured for Lin Yuan to sit.
“Master, please take your seat!”
“Hmm~” Lin Yuan's tone rose slightly.
He sat down on the chair, which was surprisingly stable.
Of course, it was! Ghost had dismantled thespine of over a dozen Tier 2 Skeleton Warriors to assemble it.
How could it not be sturdy?
To make Lin Yuan comfortable, Ghost tore off his cloak and used it as a cushion.
“Well done,” Lin Yuan praised verbally.
Ghost happily danced around, “Gaga!”
There was nothing he could do; he truly wanted to improve!
He was originally a low-level Skeleton Warrior.
After fortunately becoming Lin Yuan's Summoned Beast, he awakened an SSS-Rank Talent.
Immediately after, he perfectly evolved from a Tier 2 Skeleton Warrior into a Tier 3 Skeleton Mage.
He even comprehended S-Rank Undead Summoning.
He was the embodiment of defying fate and changing his destiny.
He thought that a Tier 3 Skeleton Mage was already the peak of his life.
But A Li had just completed a perfect evolution right before his eyes.
Tier 4 Steel Armor!
A Tier 3 A Li could slaughter Ghost like a dog.
Now that he was Tier 4, Ghost was no different from an ant in his eyes.
He could be crushed with one stomp.
This wouldn't do.
From the moment he became a Skeleton Mage, Ghost swore,
that he would never let anyone steal his bones again!
He must climb to the very top, step by step!
But to reach the top,
one person was indispensable.
That was his master, Lin Yuan.
Ghost's thinking was simple:
As long as his master was happy, wouldn't the next evolution be his turn?
Thus, Ghost embarked on a path of being a loyal retainer.
Lin Yuan leaned back.
Ghost naturally stepped forward to massage Lin Yuan's shoulders.
Not too light, not too heavy, just right.
“Comfortable!”
Lin Yuan let out a long sigh.
It would be even better if he could have a warm drink right now.
He came in a hurry today; he must remember to bring some next time.
Lin Yuan's actions seemed to enrage the Frosty Sword Guard buried beneath the Skeleton Graveyard.
The surrounding air dropped to minus forty degrees Celsius.
The exhaled breath was almost freezing into ice.

[Frosty Sword Guard awakens, portal closed]
“Intruder, die!”
Fifty meters away,
the ground suddenly collapsed.
A nimble figure leaped out from within.
The moment it appeared, a thumb-thick blue light ray shot out from the figure's hand.
Its target was precisely Lin Yuan.
-20000
An exaggerated damage number popped up above Lin Yuan's head.
He himself was fine; fifteen meters away, a Skeleton Archer shattered into pieces with a 'pop'.
“Holy crap!”
Lin Yuan was startled.
“Damn it, a sneak attack!”
If it weren't for his Talent blocking the attack, wouldn't he have been instantly killed?
Damn it, I can't tolerate this!
“A Li, get him for me!”
Without Lin Yuan's command, A Li had already charged forward with his sword raised.
Dare to harm my master,
Die!
“Ant, how dare you trespass into Lord Pierre's territory.”
“Turn to dust!”
The Frosty Sword Guard spun in place.
A pure white sword qi appeared out of thin air.
Then, it stabbed towards A Li.
-6000
The white sword qi came with a slowing effect.
After A Li was hit, his movement speed decreased by thirty percent.
[Frosty Sword Guard · Leyas] (Tier 4 Leader)
[Level: LV20]
[HP: 600000]
[MP: 80000]
[Attack: 5000]
[Defense: 4500]
[Skill 1 (Ice Ray): Leyas releases a beam of ice light, dealing 20000 magic damage to a single target. Cooldown: 15 seconds]
[Skill 2 (Ice Slash): Leyas swings his treasured sword, releasing a frosty sword qi in a straight line forward, dealing 6000 magic damage and applying a chilling effect. Cooldown: 12 seconds]
[Skill 3 (Frost Armor): When damaged, Leyas summons a protective ice armor. The armor has 100000 HP. After the armor is shattered, targets within 3 meters will be immobilized for 3 seconds. Cooldown: 20 seconds]
[Skill 4 (Shadow Dance): Leyas enters Shadow Dance state, increasing evasion by eighty percent, lasting 10 seconds. Cooldown: 30 seconds]
[Skill 5 (Bone Revival): Leyas activates the power of the white bone orb, temporarily reviving 100,000 undead in the Skeleton Graveyard]
After reading the BOSS information, Lin Yuan's expression shifted slightly.
“This BOSS, he's got something.”
That blue light beam just now should be the BOSS's first skill.
Not only is the cooldown short, but the damage is also ridiculously high.
The second skill, Sword Qi Slash, is an area-of-effect skill, with a wide range and a chilling effect nearby.
A Li was hit and afflicted with a slowing effect.
He barely managed to reach within thirty meters of the BOSS.
Frenzied Charge!
Charged Drawing Sword Slash!
The white bone greatsword, accompanied by an ear-piercing whoosh,
slammed fiercely towards the Frosty Sword Guard's head.
The BOSS's reaction was also extremely swift.
It activated its third skill, Frost Armor.
Ding!
-50000
Evade.
The first attack broke the BOSS's Frost Armor,
dealing 50000 damage to the BOSS.
The frosty aura generated after the Frost Armor shattered froze A Li in place,
causing the second attack to miss.
“Missed?”
Lin Yuan exclaimed in surprise.
This was the first time he had seen a BOSS capable of dodging A Li's skill attacks.
This also indicated that the slender figure before him was very different from previous BOSSes.
“Darkkin!”
“To think I'd encounter the Darkkin Clan after a thousand years.”
Frosty Sword Guard Leyas flashed to the side, a look of surprise flashing in his ice-blue eyes.
A Li exerted force, breaking free from the icy restraints,
and revealed the BOSS's identity before its death.
“An Elf Clan Shadow Dancer.”
The slender Frosty Sword Guard before them,
was, in its former life, the renowned Shadow Dancer of the Elf Race.
In the Elf Race, to become a Shadow Dancer, the minimum requirement was Level 60.
Shadow Dancers excel at assassination and stealth.
They prioritize killing with a single strike.
Taking the head of an enemy general amidst a thousand troops,
but their frontal combat capabilities were also extraordinary.
Once Shadow Dance was activated,
they could directly confront an Orc Berserker.
The reason Leyas was able to dodge A Li's attack just now,
was by relying on his fourth skill, Shadow Dance.
The Darkkin Clan lives for battle.
Shadow Dancers fear no challenge.
A fierce struggle is inevitable!
