"Children, take care of her!"

Bai Xiaowen jumped up and pointed at Lila Red Leaf, who had yet to recover her ability to move. A certain indescribable thing under his crotch swayed.

A gust of cold wind blew, and Bai Xiaowen's lower body felt cold. He hurriedly tightened his cloak.

The three summoned creatures rushed toward Lila Red Leaf.

Lila Red Leaf, who was heavily injured, had all of her attributes halved and decreased by 2. Her strength had been greatly weakened, but her swordsmanship was still exquisite. Her two short swords blocked left and right as if they had a mind of their own. She hid in a corner and tried her best to reduce the area of attack. The three summoned creatures were actually unable to take her down in a short period of time.

"Aiya, so stupid. There's no teamwork at all!"

Bai Xiaowen looked disdainfully at the skeleton warriors' clumsy movements. Even a melee combat noob like him, who only had a Level-1 Advanced Equipment specialty, could not bear to continue watching.

The skeleton warriors seemed to only know simple slashes and other movements. Their movements were too shallow. Lila Red Leaf either dodged or easily blocked. They were unable to cause any damage at all. The two skeleton warriors were blocking the corner, and the elite spirits were circling around outside. They were unable to participate in the battle!

"This is probably where Summoners are lacking. A Summoner who only knows how to deal damage to soldiers has no future. They need exquisite tactical coordination! "

Bai Xiaowen muttered to himself. "Skeleton No. 1 should not be the main attacker. At the very least, it should not be blocking the position of the high-damage spirits at the back. It would be perfect if it could show a weakness and trap the enemy … It's a pity that skeletons have low intelligence. "

However, just as this thought flashed through Bai Xiaowen's mind, Skeleton No. 1 on the left changed. It slashed at Lila Red Leaf, but it used too much force and staggered to the side.

Lila Red Leaf heaved a sigh of relief. She was just about to focus on dealing with Skeleton No. 2 when she suddenly felt something tighten around her leg. Skeleton No. 1, who had originally fallen to the ground, stretched out two withered bony arms and firmly locked her thigh!

Lila Red Leaf's eyes widened!

She had been roaming the world for so many years, but this was the first time she had seen a skeleton that knew how to play tricks!

Before the stunned Lila Red Leaf could recover from her shock, the Elite Specter behind her, which had long been unable to endure its thirst, charged forward with a howl and swiped its Ghost Claw. Whoosh!

Lila Red Leaf's already tattered nun robe became even more tattered. The attack from the Elite Specter not only deducted 10 HP from her, but it also caused her to lose her balance.

"Eh, there's actually such a trick?"

Bai Xiaowen quickly realized what was going on. Wasn't the special skill of his class, Spirit Master, "Mind Connection"? Other than increasing all the attributes of the summoned creatures by 20%, it could also give more detailed orders to the summoned creatures!

"Good job No.1! Don't let go! No. 2, take the left. Ghost, take the right. I'll take the front … "

Bai Xiaowen gave orders to his three summoned creatures at the same time. Fortunately, his super brain worked very quickly. If it were any other summoner, they would definitely be distracted. From this, it could be seen that Summoners were still a class that required multitasking.

Bai Xiaowen tried out various positions, and Lila Red Leaf's remaining HP was quickly wiped out.

"Lowly human, how dare you insult the great High Elf. I won't forgive you even if I become a ghost!" Lila Red Leaf cursed and then breathed her last.

The Black Soul Stone suddenly emitted a burst of black light, which turned into a black noose and tightly bound Lila Red Leaf's corpse. A slightly illusory shadow was dragged out and sucked into the Black Soul Stone with a whoosh.

Delifa the Banshee appeared amidst a burst of evil laughter. "No, you don't even have the chance to become a ghost. Obediently become Master's servant!"

Notification:

"Black Soul Stone Growth Progress: Delifa said with satisfaction," Master, this is a Level-3 Elite creature. It directly increased the Black Soul Stone's growth by 3 points. With another two or three, the Black Soul Stone will be able to level up. "

Bai Xiaowen sighed. "Killing people is just a matter of time. The Black Soul Stone doesn't even let the soul go. It's a bit too much to eat them all. Oh, a treasure chest dropped?"

Delifa rolled its eyes. "Master, this Sword Dancer's soul consciousness is very compatible with the Elite Spirit. I suggest that the Elite Spirit completely devour her consciousness. Its combat power will increase a lot."

"Then let's just devour it." Bai Xiaowen quickly took off his mask of kindness.

Notification:

"Your summoned creature, the Elite Spirit, has devoured the consciousness of the Elite Sword Dancer, Lila Red Leaf. The two have merged."

"Summoned creature, the Elite Spirit, has mutated into a Shadow Assassin."

The silhouette of the originally blurry specter gradually became clearer. He could vaguely make out the silhouette of a graceful woman holding two daggers in her hands. Her appearance alone was much better than the claws of the Elite specter.

After Bai Xiaowen checked the Shadow Assassin's attributes page, his eyes lit up.

[Shadow Assassin (Elite Level-1)]

[Race: Undead/Soul Race]

[Attributes: Strength 5, Agility 14, Constitution 8, Spirit 3]

[Specialty: Advanced Combat Skill Level 3, Advanced Armament (One-handed Sword Series) Level 4]

[Skill 1: Body of Nothingness: Race Ability, Passive Ability. Physical Damage received by Soul Undead creatures is reduced by 50%, Magic Damage increased by 50%.]

[Skill 2: Stealth: The Shadow Assassin enters an invisible state for 30 seconds. Cooldown: 30 seconds. Any attack or damage received will break the invisible state. The priority of this skill is Level-4 (Equivalent to the Summoner's basic priority)]

[Skill 3: Assassination: The first attack of the Shadow Assassin in the invisible state will definitely be a critical hit, causing double damage.]

The Shadow Assassin was currently a Level-1 Agility-based Elite creature. With Bai Xiaowen's class bonus, its total attributes reached 30 points. Its Agility was as high as 14 points. It was already close to the standard of a Level-2 Elite creature.

Compared to the Elite Spirit from before, what surprised Bai Xiaowen was the Shadow Assassin's combat specialty.

Advanced to Level-3 Combat!

Advanced to Level-4 Armament (One-handed Sword Series)!

Combat specialty referred to a certain aspect of combat skills. At the "Advanced" level, there were a total of 10 levels. At this point, it was very difficult to level up. And every level up had a significant increase in combat strength.

What did Lila Red Leaf rely on to be in a stalemate with Bai Xiaowen's three summoned creatures with her crippled body for so long? Wasn't it just a high-level combat specialty?

The Shadow Assassin was undoubtedly Bai Xiaowen's strongest summoned creature at the moment. It also had the race passive ability, Body of Nothingness. It was not weak against a Level-2 Elite creature. If there was a weakness, it was afraid of Magic Damage.

However, Magic Damage was very rare. Usually, physical damage was the main focus in combat. Therefore, this race's passive ability had a positive effect most of the time.

Bai Xiaowen ordered the three summoned creatures to other parts of the tomb to pick up the equipment that they had deliberately thrown away. He opened the big iron urn and put on the linen clothes that he had taken off to lure the enemy. Then, he opened the treasure chest that Lila Red Leaf had dropped.

A Level-3 Elite treasure chest. It was as high-end as the Empire's Special Envoy, Elliot. There were ten Silver Cards.

Bai Xiaowen killed Lila Red Leaf and got a combat score of B, which meant that he had two chances to draw loot. Normally, he should get an A rating, but Lila Red Leaf was in a bad state where all her attributes were reduced by half. A B rating was already very good.

Notification:

"You have received a card: Equipment Enhancement Card (Two Stars)."

"You have received a special item: Lord Glantis' Warrant."

The Equipment Enhancement Card was a card about the size of a bank card. There were two star icons on it. Looking at the name, it was obvious that this card was related to enhancing equipment.

Bai Xiaowen's mouth twitched when he thought of the Toxic Milk Powder game from another time and space.

"Hello warrior, I am Kelly from the Heavenly Realm. Oh, there seems to be a problem with the Enhancement Device. Your equipment is shattered."
