Chapter 61: Anina’s Journey

Dragon Boat Translation Editor: Dragon Boat Translation

After the first wave of white skeletons was killed, a wave of black skeletons crowded in front of the defense line.

Compared to the white skeletons, the black skeletons had sturdier bodies.

When the tridents and bone blades struck them, it produced a harsh metallic clash.

With a single blow, several ribs of the dark skeletal bodies were shattered.

However, there was no significant structural damage as a whole, showing their resilience.

The black skeletons, upon being attacked, had the flickering soul flames in their eye sockets violently shaking, and their bone hands fiercely clawed out.

Scratch—

The claws clashed intensely with the scales of the Naga warriors, leaving visible white marks.

Although the attack didn’t break through their defense, after dozens of relentless and painless frenzied attacks in succession, the Naga warrior’s scales were slightly pierced, oozing a hint of blood.

And with the opening, the corpse poison took advantage of the opportunity to invade.

“Ding- Naga warrior infected with corpse poison. Attributes reduced by 5%, the effect will strengthen over time.”

Corpse poison infection.

The longer it lasted, the stronger the reduction effect.

The longer it dragged on, the more disadvantageous it would be for them.

Ji Chen narrowed his eyes.

It seemed like they needed to resolve this quickly.

He looked towards Anina, who was already rubbing her fists in anticipation, unable to contain her eagerness.

With a faint smile, he said, “Then I’ll leave it to you.”

The Dragon Whale girl’s eyes instantly brightened, leaving with a “Leave it to me” and charging forward with her massive sword.

Like a war machine, she directly plowed into the midst of the skeleton horde, sending several skeletons flying high into the air.

Anina’s actions revealed to him:

If the Naga warrior couldn’t handle it, she would take over.

Facing the stronger black skeletons, her strength was more visibly demonstrated.

With a single blow, the Naga warrior could only break a few ribs of the black skeletons.

Under the mighty swing of Anina’s massive sword, it felt as if they were being struck by drilling impacts. The majority of the skeletons shattered instantly, while the remaining bodies flew out as if defying gravity.

As for the white skeletons, it was needless to say. They fell like harvested wheat, one after another.

The efficiency of the slaughter was extremely high.

In a trance, it seemed as if Ji Chen saw a giant whale twisting its colossal body, each strike carrying an immense force.

However, after watching for a while, Ji Chen suddenly sensed something was amiss.

How come they had killed so many skeletons, but their numbers hadn’t diminished in the slightest? They had even increased slightly.

He immediately opened the map.

Soon, he discovered the clue.

On the map, a large number of red dots were continuously appearing in the northeast direction, pouring in from another city gate ruins.

The northeast direction led to the second secondary island.

It seemed that these three secondary islands had been completely occupied by the skeletons.

In that case, he would follow this direction today and attempt to clear the way.

Boom-

Under the fierce participation of the Dragon Whale girl, waves of incoming skeletons fell.

One hour later.

Finally, no more skeletons appeared.

The ground was covered with a thick layer of white bones. Stepping on it, one would at least crush the bones belonging to five skeletons.

“Ding- You have achieved a victory filled with honor. You have gained 7,200 experience points…”

Ji Chen let out a slight sigh of relief.

The sheer force of the undead army’s numbers proved to be formidable.

If it weren’t for Anina’s presence, Ji Chen would have expended considerable effort in dealing with them.

Anina stood tall, wielding her colossal sword, without a trace of exhaustion on her face. She exuded confidence and proclaimed, “These skeletons are far too weak. They barely serve as a warm-up for me.”

“You truly are extraordinary, Anina. Facing a thousand enemies would be a mere triviality for you,” Ji Chen praised, engaging in some well-deserved flattery.

An amused smile played across Ji Chen’s lips as he observed the scene. Anina was certainly easy to handle…

Curiosity piqued, Ji Chen decided to ask a question that had been lingering in his mind. “You always mention being a Dragon Whale, but I haven’t seen any of your family or fellow creatures around. Where are they?”

Upon hearing this, Anina’s countenance suddenly darkened, her mood shifting. “Ever since my mother sacrificed herself to protect me, I haven’t encountered any other Deep Sea Whales.”

“I call out to them, but the ocean remains silent, devoid of any response…”

Ji Chen’s brows furrowed as he realized the implications. Whales are known to be highly social animals, rarely seen alone. Anina must have endured a prolonged period of solitude, burdened by her loneliness.

Just as Ji Chen contemplated how to console her, Alice stepped forward and, to Anina’s surprise, enveloped her in a gentle embrace. With tender strokes on her head, Alice uttered comforting words, “You poor child, from now on, I am your kin, and this place shall be your home.”

Alice’s heartfelt gesture was truly remarkable—a magnificent assist!

Overwhelmed by the unexpected display of affection, Anina quickly extricated herself from the embrace, her face flushed with a mixture of confusion and concern.

She struggled to find words and exclaimed, “Who, who said you’re the same as me? You’re a Siren, and I’m a Dragon Whale. We have nothing in common!”

Alice maintained a expressionless face and replied, “Those who are conflicted are often not well-liked.”

“What do you mean conflicted? Explain yourself!”

Seizing the opportunity, Ji Chen swiftly intervened, “It’s time to move on. Let’s continue forward.”

Anina turned her head away without uttering another word, but her trembling arms revealed her inner turmoil.

Ji Chen shook his head, stepping over the scattered white bones to approach the resource chest. He casually opened it.

Ding- You have unlocked a medium-sized resource chest. Obtained 3000 units of each basic resource.

After a brief rest, they resumed their journey.

They departed through another ruined city gate, realizing that this cluster of buildings was a large-scale facility rather than just a single city.

Beyond the city gate, they were greeted by a stretch of ruined city walls and towers that extended along the island’s path.

Not long after leaving the training ground, they encountered another formidable wave of skeletons.

Once again, they emerged from the northeast.

This time, even more powerful skeleton creatures appeared.

Skeleton hounds with four legs and eerie blue flames were swiftly and agilely charging toward them.

Ji Chen quickly realized the gravity of the situation and shouted, “Form up and brace for the attack!”

Each subsequent undead creature they encountered proved to be more formidable than the last.

The previous black skeletons were only Tier 3,1-star, but the current spectral fire skeleton hounds were already Tier 3, 3-star.

Could there be even stronger ones deeper inside?

These subsidiary islands were definitely not ordinary. Something must have happened!

Ji Chen’s mind raced with anticipation and caution as they ventured further into the islands..
