Chapter 149: Skeleton Army Upgrade

Chapter 149: Skeleton Army Upgrade

As for the Lightstream Jade, Xiao Lin had obtained some information from Song Junlang’s words, namely, that the jade used to make that jade pendant was extremely difficult to mine, hence the low production output. It was basically only produced near Dawn Academy, but Lilith also had some understanding of the Lightstream Jade.

“The Lightstream Jade’s special feature is its ability to store any energy form, be it mental power, sword aura, dragon power, or stuff like that which can’t be stored in any other space. The Lightstream Jade is basically divided into two uses. One is, as you’ve mentioned, the condensing of a certain energy through some kind of magic formation. It can be a creature—such as a golden dragon—or a weapon.”

After a pause, Lilith continued, “The Lightstream Jade’s second purpose is purely for recharge and replenishment, whether for yourself or someone else. When a person’s mental power is exhausted, it can be replenished directly through the Lightstream Jade. Most people will choose to utilize it for the second purpose.”

Xiao Lin was taken aback and asked, “What about the all-round enhancement that results from transforming its energy into a person’s own strength?”

Lilith’s face was also filled with confusion. “Even though Judge Academy cannot produce Lightstream Jade on its own, I know of a few people who have the ability to make this kind of accessory. But I’m quite sure that I’ve never heard this use before.”

“Does this mean that the change only occurs in The Final Land?”

“Maybe. It’s the same with my Red Lotus Blade.”

“Speaking of which, it looks like your Red Lotus Blade has been strengthened beyond its normal power.”

Lilith glanced at him and nodded in some surprise. “You’ve probably also noticed that my Red Lotus Blade transforms into a flame with dual physical and magical damage by fusing spiritual power and sword aura together. The shape of the flame looks like a red lotus, hence the name for the technique. However, the flame isn’t exactly the shape of a red lotus when I used it recently. It seems to have changed a lot.”

“Has its power also increased because of that?” Xiao Lin asked.

“I’m still not sure whether the increase in power is really related to the shape of the flame, but it’s quite interesting.” A playful smile raised in the corner of Lilith’s mouth as she made an interesting analysis yet again.

Xiao Lin’s mouth twitched and he rubbed the shining jade on his chest. He was unsure whether the changes in dragon power had anything to do with The Final Land. He tried many things in the past month, and as an example, one of the things he could control was releasing only the desired amount of dragon power, amounting to about one percent of the entire golden dragon. Therefore, the Lightstream Jade could sustain the entire month and the dragon power was not completely exhausted.

During that month, Xiao Lin and Lilith ran almost all over the city, hiding under the noses of the skeleton soldiers. The thrills during the period were not as effortless as he imagined, and Xiao Lin became more and more anxious to improve his strength. After upgrading his hammer skills to LV4, he changed back to the big sword again and wanted to continue improving his Basic Swordsmanship.

No truer words were spoken when Lilith said it was a training field. Xiao Lin had begun to understand why Lilith was so strong.

Sometime later, the high priest Asabanor seemed to have grown rather tired of that hide-and-seek game. The number of skeletons on the street obviously began to decrease, but a new kind of skeleton soldier appeared, slightly larger than the previous ones. Their bones glowed with gray-black metallic luster, and their weapons were no longer monotonous bone knives, but were replaced by those produced in the forging workshop.

“It looks like our enemy has had an upgrade!”

“I can see that!”

The two encountered yet another team of skeleton soldiers on that day. They could clearly sense that the skeleton soldiers’ strength was different from usual. Lilith could not instantly kill them, even though she used the Red Lotus Blade, and Xiao Lin was forced to release even more of the dragon power.

The blood sun hung in the sky as always, but it radiated only cold. Xiao Lin and Lilith stood on the edge of the city square with a dozen skeleton soldiers scattered around them. The click and clack of their footsteps were fast approaching and they had much faster support than the previous month.

The high priest was not at all incompetent in his high position. After one month of futile work, it was obvious that the old man had adjusted his tactics.

“What should we do?” Xiao Lin asked in a low voice.

“Charge!”

“Charge? F*CK!” Xiao Lin had just finished when he saw Lilith dragging her scythe in a forward lunge. She seemed to be afraid of nothing!

A layer of red flames appeared on the moon-shaped scythe again. It was her signature skill, the Red Lotus Blade. The first skill she used when she attacked was her own skill, and it was clear that Lilith was very wary of the enhanced skeleton soldiers.

The flames did not manifest in the shape of a red lotus, but scattered into denser flames like a goddess scattering flowers, striking each bone of the skeleton soldier’s body. Lilith yelled, lifted the scythe, and leapt upward, drawing a crescent shape in the air. Clusters of flames flared up on the skeleton soldier’s bodies, turning into a raging flame and enveloping the entire skeleton soldiers. The high temperature that exploded in an instant quickly destroyed the skeletons and burned with red.

Lilith descended and the scythe passed through the skeleton soldier’s body. The bones, after being reduced in strength from the strong heat, failed to withstand the attack and collapsed.

Lilith panted quite severely, indicating that the attack had consumed a lot of her stamina. Xiao Lin was rather taken aback and stopped sitting on his hands. He squeezed the Lightstream Jade and released more than the usual amount of dragon power. He was already very proficient in its mastery.

Although it was not the time to be miserly, it was inevitable that Xiao Lin would not be too happy about releasing so much of the power. He could not help but think of how he would not have to use as much if he was just enhancing his strength.

With that thought, Xiao Lin took advantage of the situation and tried it out. After switching back to the huge sword, he leaned sideways and used his agility to dodge behind the skeleton. At that moment, he suddenly felt that his body was filled with lead and his steps were a little bit heavier.

‘Could it be! Could it really be successful?’

Countless thoughts flashed in his mind, but Xiao Lin had no time to think too much about the situation before him. He immediately raised his big sword high and at that moment, he only powered-up for about two seconds before slicing the skeleton in front of him. He completed his power-up and launched a slash.

Boom!

The sword exploded with greater power than usual. Although the skeleton soldier subconsciously raised its sword to resist him, its weapon was still cut in half by Xiao Lin’s sword and the green flame in its pupils extinguished at once.

Xiao Lin seemed to have figured out something, but he needed time to digest his findings slowly. After the slash, his agility returned to normal and he yelled at Lilith all of a sudden, “Your hammer! Let me use it!”
