Chapter 1118 Void Territory (Part 5)
"Zalthur, youâ" Sylthar and the other team members were shocked when Zalthur suddenly plunged a poison-coated knife into Rael's throat, instantly killing him.
Thud!
With a loud thud, Rael's body dropped to the ground, his face still showing a look of disbelief as a pool of black blood formed around him.
The sound of the corpse hitting the ground snapped Sylthar and the others back to their senses, and they turned to look at Zalthur with murderous eyes.
"You bastard! How dare you kill my brother!" A skinny Eldritch creature with a face resembling that of a lizard roared in anger and slashed with his long cleaver.
But to the shock of Sylthar and the other team members, the skinny Eldritch creature didn't attack Zalthur; instead, he shifted his attack at the last moment, striking a tall Eldritch creature standing beside him.
The tall Eldritch creature didn't expect the skinny one to attack him, especially while he was screaming at Zalthur, so he wasn't able to react in time and his body was cleanly split into two under the sharp cleaver.
Sylthar and the remaining five Eldritch creatures were once again stunned when they saw this and instantly, they all moved away from each other, fearing they might face the same fate as the tall Eldritch creature if they stood near each other.
"Zalthur, Kharzul, what the hell are you two doing?!" Sylthar roared in a furious voice after backing away and without giving them any chance to explain, he immediately took action and attacked with his spear.
Sylthar didn't want to kill them before understanding what was going on, so he aimed for their feet, trying to immobilize them.
But in the next second, the eyes of all the Eldritch creatures contracted to the size of needles because just as Sylthar's attacks were about to hit their feet, Zalthur and Kharzul dropped to the ground, bringing their heads directly into the path of the attack.
They offered no defence against the sharp spear, and it was already too late for Sylthar to stop his attack. As a result, the sound of flesh tearing and bones cracking rang out and the heads of Zalthur and Kharzul exploded like watermelons.
"What?!" Sylthar was stunned when his feet and hands were grabbed by the B-rank skeletons, and before he could react, the hundreds of skeletons surrounding him also jumped at him, grabbing his body just like the B-rank skeletons had.
Sylthar's face turned red with shame at being caught by such low-level skeletons, and he roared in anger, "Get away from me!"
A powerful aura burst out from Sylthar's body, and all the skeletons grabbing him were pushed away.
But to his shock, he found that the skeletons were still completely intact, with no damage on their white bones.
"What theâ" Sylthar wasn't able to finish his sentence as his body was once again grabbed by the skeletons.
The Eldritch Creature was about to attack once more, but at that moment...
Swish!
A sharp light suddenly flashed around Sylthar's neck, a fountain of black blood erupted and his head rolled high into the sky.
As his head fell from the sky, Sylthar saw his headless body still being grabbed by the skeletons, and behind his headless body, stood Cryl, one of his teammates who slit his own neck after killing him.
'Just what the fu*k is wrong with this place?' This was Sylthar's last thought before his vision turned dark, and his body dropped to the ground, motionless.
As Sylthar's life force faded, a small black cat with glowing purple eyes jumped onto the head of one of the skeletons and rubbed its shiny head.
"Baldies, bring all the bodies to Master so he can turn these poor fellows into our junior brothers," Hana ordered the skeletons, and they soon began dragging the ten bodies of Sylthar and his teammates deeper into the black world.
From the corner of her eye, Hana glanced at a small puff of black smoke that was secretly following them but did nothing and lay down on top of one of the skeleton's heads, trying to take a short nap after finishing her work.
