Chapter 500: Locked On
"Holy shit!! This is too damn crazy!"
"How can he control so many spirit beasts, undead, and corpse puppets all by himself?"
"Unbelievable! Absolutely unbelievable! A non-specialist can do this?"
"You're telling me he's a non-specialist?"
"..."
It wasn't just the members of the adventurer corps.
Even the members of the national legions were utterly stunned when they witnessed such a vast scene!
They had necromancers and corpse handlers who had reached their third tier.
But all of them had limitations!
Before reaching the fourth tier and breaking those limits, even third-tier necromancers and corpse handlers could only control a maximum of fifty thousand undead or corpse puppets.
The same applied to beast tamers and summoners.
Their limit was fifty thousand.
A number like fifty thousand was already incredibly vast.
Especially since such a force was enough to easily destroy a small fortress or a large city.
But now, before their eyes was a non-specialist not only controlling spirit beasts but also undead and corpse puppets!
The key was that the number he could control far exceeded that of these third-tier experts!
This battle had only just begun.
The number of ghost slave casualties on the enemy side was already in the hundreds of thousands.
And it was those hundreds of thousands of dead that were now being reanimated by a single non-specialist to counterattack the ghost slaves!
Boom!!
Boom!!
Boom!!
.......
As the gigantic spirit beasts, each carrying a massive threat, strode toward the ghost slave legion.
With every step and skill attack, thousands of ghost slaves were killed instantly.
And at the moment of their death.
They were immediately affected by the non-specialist's skills, becoming puppets under his control.
Right now.
Everyone was stunned as they saw more and more undead knights and zombie puppets marked as friendly units.
Even the members of the Dragon Kingdom's Ninth Squad, flying in the sky, were left dumbfounded by the sight.
"This..."
They were speechless!!
Their hearts were completely filled with shock!
The senior members, who had been doubtful about their captain's decision, were now utterly convinced!!
What does it mean for one person to be worth an army of millions?
This is it!!
One person!
Directly flanking the enemy from the rear!!
The key was that those ferocious ghost slaves couldn't do anything against Ling Zhan!
Under the stomps of those gigantic spirit beasts, all the ghost slaves could do was scream in impotent rage before being crushed in the next moment.
"Roar!!"
The ghost slave generals in the middle of the legion finally let out a roar.
Clearly.
They hadn't expected their rear to be turned upside down by a single person, and now the entire ghost slave legion's morale was on the verge of collapse!
But after roaring, they thought for a moment.
Only to helplessly realize that there was nothing they could do!
Any one of these generals alone could rival a human third-tier expert.
But when they saw a winged ghost slave general, filled with murderous intent, trying to target the man standing atop the spirit beasts...
And in the next moment, that general was instantly intercepted and killed by a squad member nearby.
Their hearts sank!!
Especially when another ghost slave general, skilled in stealth, had finally managed to sneak up behind the man and was just about to pierce his body with poison-covered spikes.
Suddenly!
The human man spun around and delivered a powerful tail-like kick right to the ghost slave general's midsection!
"Ugh!"
The level 75 ghost slave general grunted in pain, feeling as if its entire waist had been nearly snapped in half by the blow!
Damn it!
Was that really an attack from a level 65 non-specialist!?
Was the identification information wrong?
Before the ghost slave general could break free from the stiffness caused by the kick.
Splat!!
A sharp sword pierced its head from an extremely strange and tricky angle.
The splitting white sword energy also tore through all its internal organs, shredding them completely!
"Hiss!!"
The members of the Dragon Kingdom's squad, who had been trying to protect Ling Zhan from sneak attacks, couldn't help but gasp at this sight!
Because just now, they had seen a spatial hole appear in front of Ling Zhan.
And he had thrust his sword through that spatial hole.
The result was that the sword struck directly at the ghost slave general's head.
This sword, which seemed to have traversed space, left everyone in utter shock!
Moreover...
The ghost slave general, known for its tenacity, was completely lifeless after just that one strike, its body already poisoned and igniting!
Oh my god...
Just how many skill effects were packed into that spatial sword?
The squad knew how much effort it took them to gang up on and kill a single ghost slave general!
And that was when they had the numbers advantage.
If they had to fight one-on-one, it would be impossible to kill the opponent quickly.
Because the ghost slave generals would rely on their immense vitality and defensive abilities to continuously engage in hit-and-run tactics. At best, they could defeat them in a solo fight, but killing them would be difficult.
Unless the general foolishly stayed in place for a death match.
But these ghost slave generals, with their sharp minds, would never just stand there and wait to be killed!
Yet, this non-specialist had killed one.
So easily.
So effortlessly.
It was like he was casually slaughtering a chicken.
This...
Anyone with eyes could see the incredible strength of this non-specialist!!
Even the ghost slave generals began communicating among themselves!
"When did humanity produce such a young monster?"
"No idea!!"
"Should we flee?"
"Do we even need to ask? With Lord Blinding Ghost dead and Liuli City lost!"
"I'm sure the ghost slave portal we built through secret methods has also been destroyed. Without reinforcements, we have no choice but to retreat!"
"Damn humans! I'll remember him! One day, Lord Sky Ghost will personally kill him!"
"We're out of here!"
With their minds connected.
The more than ten thousand ghost slave generals hidden among the legion immediately formed hand seals and began casting the Hundred Ghost Secret Technique!
Buzz!!
A mysterious ripple emanated from their bodies.
And nearby ghost slaves let out miserable cries as their bodies began to shatter on their own!
The shattered flesh and dark ghost blood fused together, eventually forming eerie blood-flesh portals!
"Damn humans! I'm done playing with you!"
An 82-level ghost slave general, the strongest among them, laughed heartily as he prepared to step into one of the blood-flesh portals in front of everyone.
However...
Huh!?
In that instant.
This ghost slave general suddenly felt a bone-chilling sense of danger explode in his heart!
It was as if...
He had been completely locked onto by a fatal killing intent!
