Chapter 12 - Chapter 12: Running Under the Setting Sun

"You lot want to rebel! Do you want to kill me too!"

Gu Erdan, who had hastily thrown himself to the ground and successfully dodged the shrapnel bombardment, turned his head and let out a furious curse.

Then he noticed that those skeleton soldiers who had originally wanted to rush over to support were all knocked down by this move. Some were missing limbs, and some died on the spot (GG, a Chinese internet slang meaning dead).

What's even worse, although the Bone Warrior that had dug underground was also hit, and was the main target of the attack.

But relying on the advantage of hiding in the ground and the bones strengthened by his second-tier strength, he was only injured but not killed. And he quickly crawled towards Gu Erdan again!

A volley of arrows not only failed to kill the target but also interrupted all the approaching reinforcements. Gu Erdan was so frustrated! At this moment, he really wanted to rip off the heads of those skeleton soldiers! Tie them to the arrows and shoot them all out!

But it was too late to do anything now. Seeing that Bone Warrior crawling towards him on all fours like a strange mutant, Gu Erdan quickly got up and scampered off.

Gu Erdan was running in front, the Bone Warrior was chasing after him, and a large group of skeleton soldiers with outstretched claws were following behind.

Under the setting sun, these three groups of fellows started a long marathon race!

Skeleton soldiers don't get tired. More precisely, most of the undead don't have the concept of being tired because they are already dead. Have you ever heard of a dead person getting tired?

Because of this, the running crowd fell into a very awkward situation.

Gu Erdan didn't dare to stop. He was afraid that if his puny and fragile body stopped, he would be easily crushed to death by the other party.

The Bone Warrior also didn't stop because his target didn't stop.

As for the tiny skeleton soldier minions at the back, they also didn't stop. Some of the archers even tried to shoot arrows.

But after Gu Erdan was almost killed on the spot by a volley of arrows that missed badly, he didn't dare to let these crazy guys attack anymore.

On earth were they trying to help him or harm him! It felt like these guys were even scarier than the Bone Warrior behind!

Surely these guys also be thinking about killing him and usurping the throne!

Gu Erdan ran for more than twenty kilometers, and he was running in circles no less because he was afraid that if he ran in a straight line, he might encounter some powerful enemies. He only dared to wander around in this area that he was familiar with.

It wasn't until the light of the black sun in the sky gradually faded and the entire ground began to fall into darkness that Gu Erdan finally slowed down.

It wasn't that he was tired, but he finally came up with a way to deal with the enemies behind!

Fifteen li (a Chinese unit of length, approximately half a kilometer) ahead! There is a Bone Cliff! For whatever reason, a crack appeared in the flat Bone Plain! The crack is not wide, and the vegetation on both sides is lush!

The Ghost Crying Vine, which likes to devour the flesh and blood of living people, twists and turns, forming a large number of vine bridges above the crack! As long as you are careful, you can walk across!

And at this moment, Gu Erdan wasn't going there to climb the bridge, of course; he was going to jump off the cliff!

Running all the way, just as the sky was about to be completely engulfed in darkness, Gu Erdan finally reached the edge of this cliff.

Without any hesitation, Gu Erdan reached out and grabbed a vine, then surged into the air with a sudden leap.

With his already light skeleton and a forceful stomp of his foot, his whole body swung directly towards the opposite side under the inertia of the vine!

In the very next second after he leaped towards the opposite side! The Bone Warrior, which had been chasing after him like a fish burrowing through the ground, also dug through the strata. With a swoosh, it flew out of the cliff.

Just because the skeleton soldiers have low IQs doesn't mean they're completely brainless.

They still understand the most basic instincts, such as climbing stairs or jumping off a cliff.

The Bone Warrior grabbed a vine in an orderly fashion and actually swung over forcefully. Apparently, it wasn't willing to let go of Gu Erdan, this choice prey.

But just when it was halfway through the leap, a sudden gust of wind howled past. The Bone Warrior took a closer look and was shocked to find that it was actually Gu Erdan who had come back!

The shocked Bone Warrior simply passed by Gu Erdan. As it did, Gu Erdan didn't forget to arrogantly stick up his middle finger at it.

"Motherf*cker! Hahaha!"

This was Gu Erdan's plan! He never needed to completely shake off his enemies! He just needed to elude them for a while! Even if it was just for one second, that would be enough!

As long as he could hide back among the skeleton squad, a mere Bone Warrior was nothing to worry about!

Looking at the huddle of bone minions standing on the edge of the cliff, Gu Erdan was so excited that tears welled up in his eyes.

Finally safe! Once he successfully reached the shore! If that bastard still dared to chase after him! He'd definitely have his minions tear him to shreds!

Just as Gu Erdan was pondering how to deal with the enemy, with the help of the vine's strength, he finally reached the edge of the cliff, and then...

Bang!

There was a sound of impact. Gu Erdan rammed into the row of skeleton minions. The skull hanging around his neck even spun two full circles!

Gu Erdan, looking completely bewildered, stared wide-eyed and silently at his minions. Then, under the force of inertia, his body swung back once more!

"F*ck you!"

A miserable cry rang out. After a long silence, Gu Erdan finally understood what had happened!

These idiots didn't even leave him an inch of space!

They were trying to kill him, right? They must have been thinking about killing him, right? Otherwise, why did they keep going against him at every turn! Why did they keep setting traps for him everywhere!

"You bunch of idiots!!!"

With a shrill scream, Gu Erdan immediately swung towards the opposite side. And halfway through, he passed by the persistent Bone Warrior that had chased back again, almost face to face.

In this moment, Gu Erdan clearly saw the confusion in the Bone Warrior's eyes.

It seemed that it couldn't figure out why Gu Erdan had come back?

Actually, not only did it not understand, but Gu Erdan himself also didn't understand! He didn't understand why he had come back!

Turning to look at the approaching cliff edge, Gu Erdan sighed and stretched out his foot, intending to climb up first.

However...

To Gu Erdan's shock, the foot he stretched out with all his might was still a palm's width away from the edge of the cliff!

Although it was within reach, this short palm-width distance had now become the last straw that broke Gu Erdan's spirit.

He couldn't get to it!

"Aaaaaah!"

Amidst the screams, once the vine's strength was exhausted, it swung towards the opposite side again, with a despairing Gu Erdan still hanging on it.

And when Gu Erdan swung back for the third time, as anticipated, he passed by that Bone Warrior again.

Then came the fourth, fifth, sixth time...

With nowhere to gain leverage, the vines in their hands swayed with diminishing force and finally stopped completely.

With a loud crack, the two people gripping the vine met at the center of the cliff and crashed into each other heavily.

Looking at the Bone Warrior who was looking down at him, Gu Erdan only felt a chill run down his spine. He looked up and wanted to say something, but the skull hanging around his neck let out a cracking sound, and the chin simply dropped off.

"What a coincidence, hahaahaha! Have you eaten?"

"Roar!!!"

All the Bone Warrior wanted to do now was to gnaw on Gu Erdan! He really hadn't eaten, and he didn't want to eat either.

Two rows of fangs bit down hard! They directly gnawed on Gu Erdan's skull! And there was a loud crunching sound!

The poor skull simply couldn't withstand this kind of abuse and was gnawed out a hole on the spot, scaring Gu Erdan into letting out continuous screams!

Just as the Bone Warrior was about to follow up on his victory, there suddenly came a howling wind in the distance. Hearing the movement, the Bone Warrior stopped attacking and quickly looked up, only to see a large number of skeleton soldiers swinging over by grabbing the vines!

Dong!

Hua la!

Dozens of skeleton soldiers rushed forward in succession! When passing by the two of them! Without any hesitation, they let go of the vines and lunged forward!

Their courage is commendable! Their attitude is resolute! Their will is unwavering!

It's just a pity that they don't have enough brains.

A large number of skeleton soldiers didn't calculate the distance well and flew right past the two of them and then plummeted straight down.

Some skeleton soldiers did hit, but either they hit the two of them or were sent flying by a kick from the Bone Warrior.

A crackling sound rang out. When the sound stopped, the resources that Gu Erdan had painstakingly saved up over half a month had dropped sharply from more than sixty to a dozen, all hanging under the vines of the two of them.
