"Head of the Hall, what do we do? Our base will be destroyed if things continue like this."
"Kill that brat for . I refuse to believe that our eminent Blood Lotus base cannot deal with a single person. Activate all the traps. He will not leave here alive this ti."
Seeing the Head of the Hall’s eyes turn red, the others knew that saying anything now would be pointless.
After all, Blood Lotus is a terrorist organization, and its mbers are obviously not of sound mind. The higher-ups are even more fanatical and crazy. There’s no way they would think about retreating at this point.
At this mont, the Vice Head of the Hall quietly called over a few people and said: "Start the evacuation program, get everything out of here. We can’t afford to lose them here. As long as I beco the head, I won’t treat you badly. Send these things away, they can’t be wasted here."
He already saw everything within the base as his own, and he wouldn’t just let the enemy destroy it.
So people within the base began to move quickly. Yet with the chaos within the base, even if soone noticed the changes, nobody had the ti to deal with it.
Additionally, everyone had their own thoughts and had to plan for the future. The Head of the Hall might wish for them to die here, but they weren’t so willing. On the ground, the battle was nearing its end.
The gigantic fireball, under Du You’s guidance, was stoked for another minute before Du You waved his hand, and the fireball descended towards the underground base’s ceiling where the first fireball had struck earlier.
A huge explosion ensued, with endless air currents spreading in all directions, and the ground shook as if there was an earthquake.
Even the ground combat chas, which were known for their excellent stability, couldn’t withstand the shock. Two of them fell directly to the ground. As soon as they fell down, a giant black gorilla appeared, smashing the two chas with a single punch.
After the flas subsided, Du You looked over at the spot where the desert storm had dissipated. The steel plates on the ground were completely shattered. Molten iron flowed from the twisted steel plates. There was an opening in the ground, but what lied below was yet unknown.
"How many more?" Du You asked Lin Yushi.
"I don’t know." Lin Yushi didn’t have spiritual perception and could only rely on her eyes, so she couldn’t see clearly.
Du You knew he had asked a redundant question, so he relied on his own perception. There weren’t many enemies left, or to be precise, the base’s remaining combat troops weren’t much of a threat. Although Blood Lotus was a large organization, it was impossible for all mbers to be within the base.
Such a terrorist organization had many things to do ordinarily. Furthermore, to expand the organization, its professionals had to frequently venture into the Other World or so nearby dangerous places to hunt.
So, at this point, the two elite forces within the base were almost wiped out, and the base couldn’t contribute much in terms of combat power.
"Shall we go down now? Destroying a Blood Lotus base is a significant accomplishnt."
Du You shook his head and said: "Who knows how many traps they have laid in the base? We shouldn’t go down, let’s use the skeletons." With that, Du You activated his Undead Armguard, and a grey fog erged in the sandy wind.
A large number of skeletons crawled out from the void and walked towards the hole in the ground.
"Oh my God, what are these? Where did all these skeletons co from?"
"Could it be that the enemy is an Undead Mage, a high-level one at that? Damn it, stay back!"
These skeletons were no pushovers. Tier one skeletons were not an issue, but tier two skeletons could easily rip their chas apart. The elite forces of Blood Lotus were used to fighting against humans. They were virtually helpless against the skeletons, and could only watch as they were surrounded by them.
Their killing moves were basically useless, and any standard attack from the skeletons could prove fatal. Coupled with the hidden summoned beasts and their combat power, the forces on the ground were quickly annihilated.
The skeletons didn’t stand idle. Under Du You’s command, they jumped into the hole in the ground that had been smashed open and stord in, turning the entire Blood Lotus base into their attack zone.
Unlike humans, the skeletons could sense where there were living beings. Therefore, under the pursuit of the skeletons, no one could hide. At the very least, the Blood Lotus mbers in the base couldn’t.
"Head of the Hall, we should retreat now, or it will be too late," implored a trusted aide.
"Retreat? Where can I retreat to? With such a huge mistake, what awaits back there?" The Vice Head fell silent. The rules within Blood Lotus were extrely cruel. A mistake such as this, causing such a huge loss, wasn’t sothing that could be resolved by rely dying.
If they were to return, what awaited them would be worse than death.
"Humph, the Vice Head has already taken his people and left, hasn’t he? If I were to go back now, I’d be the one bearing all the bla. Humph, even if I die, I won’t pave the way for him. If I die, he won’t be able to shirk his responsibility entirely."
The Head of the Hall’s eyes turned red, and he was determined not to retreat. But before he could make another move, the front door suddenly ca under heavy attack.
After a few attacks, they were able to see that the entrance had been occupied by the skeletons, who were battering the door.
"Has it already spread to here? Not bad. Whoever’s capable of killing my son sure is cautious, using these cannon fodders to probe even at this stage. But, I won’t be easily dealt with."
As the person in charge of a Blood Lotus sub-base, this Head of the Hall wasn’t especially powerful, but he was still a tier three expert. The Blood Lotus Head of the Hall pulled out his weapon, a blood-red scimitar.
Not waiting for the skeletons to co in, he took the initiative, flung the door open and jumped out. His scimitar transford into a red crescent arc, instantly killing two tier three skeletons. Simultaneously, he moved with his blade, his steps were elusive and his speed extraordinary. He managed to kill quite a few skeletons for a ti, but skeletons did not fear death, and there were quite a few tier three skeletons amongst them.
When the Head of the Hall ran out of breath, and his power hadn’t recovered, a tier three skeleton charged at him, its spear piercing through the Head of the Hall’s leg.
The Head managed to fend it off, but another skeleton surged forward and with one stroke, hacked off one of his arms.
Subsequently, more and more skeletons sward over. In front of the other Blood Lotus mbers, the Head of the Hall was finally overwheld by the skeletons. For a Head of the Hall who has grown accustod to a life of ease and hasn’t seen much battle in the past few years, being able to exert such combat power was already quite comndable.
