The Era of Tower Defense: I Have Super Enhancement Novel - Chapter 37

Chapter 37: Assassination

Seeing the incoming Crystal Skeleton, Arnold raised his scepter, ready to completely destroy it.

However, Thomas stopped him.

“This dark creature is a bit special. Is there a way to catch it? I want to ask it something,” Thomas said.

He felt that this Crystal Skeleton was a bit special. If he caught it and interrogated it, he would be able to get some useful information.

“Understood.” Arnold waved the scepter in his hand and chanted, “Holy Light Cage, retrieve!”

As Arnold spoke, a cage made of holy light appeared in the sky.

Whoosh!

The Holy Light Cage enveloped the Crystal Skeleton and locked it inside.

The Crystal Skeleton was furious when it saw this. It crazily rammed against the Holy Light Cage, wanting to rush out.

However, the Holy Light Cage was too strong. It was not something it could break open.

“Ah!”

The Crystal Skeleton could only ram into the Holy Light Cage.

Thomas pulled the Holy Light Cage back and stepped on it. He sneered and said, “Don’t worry. I’ll lock you up for a while. When I have time, I’ll deal with you.”

“Roar!” Hearing Thomas’ words, the Crystal Skeleton became even angrier.

It was also a famous Lord in Hell. It managed thousands of square kilometers of land and thousands of demons.

Now, it was humiliated by a human, which made it even angrier.

It fiercely hit the Holy Light Cage, trying to break away from the Holy Light Cage and bite Thomas into pieces.

However, since it had already fallen to level 4, it simply couldn’t do it.

“This, how is this possible?”

Not far away, Anthony looked at everything in front of it in disbelief.

It couldn’t believe that the killer move that it had painstakingly arranged was so easily broken by someone.

Even the Lord of Hell, Crystal Skeleton, had been captured and imprisoned. All of this seemed so absurd and unreal.

If someone had told it a day ago that the Lord of Hell, Crystal Skeleton, would be captured by someone…

It would definitely laugh at that person for not waking up and throw it into the glacier to wake up.

However, all of this had happened just like that.

Anthony looked at all of this in a daze, not knowing what to do for a moment.

“Good opportunity!” Seeing this, Thomas immediately raised his silver scepter and struck Anthony’s head with lightning.

Crack!

A long crack appeared on Anthony’s skull.

The intense pain brought Anthony back to his senses.

“Despicable fellow! I’m going to kill you!” Anthony raised the scepter in its hand and wanted to release a Demonic Fireball to kill Thomas.

However, in order to create the summoning magic array, it had used up most of its magic power. In order to save the magic array, it had almost drained all of its remaining magic power.

Now, the magic power in its body could not even release a complete Demonic Fireball.

However, Anthony tried to hold its body, trying to release the Demonic Fireball to kill Thomas.

Boom!

The Demonic Fireball had just appeared in Anthony’s palm, and it could not hold on any longer.

The Demonic Fireball exploded.

The green flames quickly swallowed Anthony.

A few seconds later, the Skeleton Mage, Anthony, was burned to ashes by the Demonic Fireball it released.

A level 5 magic core fell to the ground.

Thomas and Arnold looked at each other.

No one could figure out what Anthony was doing.

If it wasn’t for the magic core, Thomas even thought that Anthony was playing some trick again.

All of this seemed very long, but it was only a short period of time.

Anthony’s magic core had just landed on the ground when the large group of Skeleton Soldiers finally rushed to the front of the city wall.

Originally, there were five hundred Skeleton Soldiers and more than 20 Skeleton Knights. After the fireballs and lightning, by the time they reached the city wall, they had already lost nearly half of them.

“Charge!”

The Skeleton Knights led the Skeleton Soldiers to charge.

Previously, the White Bone Elephant had already helped them open an opening.

As long as they charged through the opening, victory would belong to them.

Countless Skeleton Soldiers built human ladders and charged towards the opening.

However, the moment they got close to the Wall of Sighs, countless hands stretched out from the wall and grabbed them, dragging them into the wall.

Although the Wall of Sighs did not have any achievements in front of the Dark Knights, that was because the Dark Knight was a level 5 powerhouse. The Wall of Sighs was only level 3, a full two levels apart.

And after these Skeleton Soldiers lost their halos, their true strength was only level 1.

Even those Skeleton Knights were only level 2.

The Wall of Sighs was more than enough to deal with them.

One by one, the skeletons were dragged into the Wall of Sighs, turning into nutrients.

The hole on the Wall of Sighs that had been opened by the White Bone Elephant was rapidly healing.

“All attack! Wipe out the Skeleton Soldiers and Skeleton Knights with all your strength,” Thomas ordered loudly.

“Yes!”

Everyone immediately responded.

The Archers shot arrows at the Skeleton Soldiers below the wall.

O’Neill and the others also stood behind the gap, ready to deal with the Skeleton Soldiers that charged in.

Under the joint attack of the group, the remaining 200 Skeleton Soldiers and Skeleton Knights were quickly cleared out.

All kinds of magic cores piled up like a mountain.

However, there was no smile on Thomas’ face.

That was because, in the distance, there was still no movement from a skeletal carriage.

According to the Skeleton Mage Anthony and the Dark Knight, this carriage was the Skeleton Prince’s ride.

If the Skeleton Mage and the Dark Knight were so powerful, then what about the Skeleton Prince?

It was probably not that weak, right?

Just as Thomas was wondering if he should go over and take a look, suddenly, a strong wind sounded behind him.

A pitch-black skeleton suddenly appeared behind Thomas. It was the Skeleton Prince.

At this moment, the Skeleton Prince was holding two pitch-black short swords in its hands. It was staring coldly at Thomas.

“I didn’t expect you to be their leader. Since that’s the case, use your life to die with my men!”

As the Skeleton Prince spoke, the two short swords in its hands stabbed towards Thomas’ back.

These two short swords were enchanted magic weapons. It could easily pierce through ordinary armor.

“Sir Thomas, be careful!” At this moment, Arya, who was standing beside Thomas, saw this scene. She did not care about her own safety as she stood in front of Thomas and used her body to block the short swords that were aimed at Thomas.

Puff!

The two short swords stabbed into Arya’s body.

“Damn you! Get out of my way!” The Skeleton Prince saw this and became angry out of embarrassment. It wanted to pull out the short swords.

However, the two short swords were tightly held in Arya’s hands, and it couldn’t pull them out no matter what.

“Arya, how are you?” At this time, Thomas also noticed that something was wrong. He hugged Arya and asked with concern.

“Don’t worry about me. Kill it and protect my seed.”

Arya’s head tilted, and her body fell to the ground.

The body quickly dissolved and finally turned into a fist-sized seed.
