"Below are the undead army, instruct them not to completely destroy it. This kind of undead still holds certain research value. Its speed is commendable, and we can replicate it for reconnaissance purposes."

Another Skeleton Lord proposed a new suggestion.

It’s not easy to gain a Winged Night Shadow from the Corpse King, so they have to find another way.

They don’t have the capability to replicate new undead, but the Corpse King does. In his lifetime, he was a Necromancer specialized in the Necromancer System, and he was unique in necromancy and undead creation. After becoming a Witch, this ability reached a new level.

These Skeleton Lords were created by him, and replicating a whole new undead is not a difficult task for him.

"What’s going on?"

"Why so fast?"

"What just happened? Where is the enemy?"

The Skeleton Lords had not finished celebrating when there was a sudden change on the other side of the Specter’s Eye.

The Shadow Flyer, originally in a stalled state, surged forward with a whoosh amid two roaring sounds, terrifyingly fast.

Although it went in the wrong direction, heading towards the ground, it effectively dodged the subsequent collisions from the two Winged Night Shadows.

Before the Shadow Flyer hit the ground, it skipped like a stone, then forcibly lifted up again, fleeing towards the distance without looking back.

"Chase, catch up with it, don’t let it escape."

The nearby Skeleton Lord stomped anxiously, how could the duck in mouth just fly away.

There was no need to give orders, as those Winged Night Shadows had already acted accordingly.

However, the speed difference seemed somewhat significant. Even with the Acceleration Spell activated, these Winged Night Shadows couldn’t catch the Shadow Flyer in its surge state.

"It’s because of those two skeletal tubes on its wings. Just now, a massive amount of negative energy surged out, providing it with propulsion to escape the attack."

"Indeed, it’s happening again, who would have thought that negative energy could be used this way."

"Stay on it, the earlier collision took effect. This mode of energy surge flight burdens it too much, the cracks on its back are widening rapidly, it can’t go full speed. Force it to continuously use this ability, and its wings will explode."

The Skeleton Lords quickly perceived the enemy’s ingenuity, while also noticing something off about the enemy’s condition. 𝒻𝘳ℯℯ𝑤ℯ𝒷𝘯ℴ𝓋ℯ𝘭.𝑐ℴ𝑚

The opponent speeds up and slows down alternately.

Hence, it can’t completely escape the pursuit of the Winged Night Shadow squadron.

However, the Winged Night Shadow squadron can’t catch up with the opponent for a while either.

Aerial pursuits differ from ground ones because of terrain and obstacles, there’s room to intercept the opponent via diversion tactics.

Now, if they can’t catch up, they can’t catch up. All hope lies in the previous attack.

Boom! Boom! Boom!

A violent roar echoed.

Five identical Shadow Flyers rushed head-on towards the Winged Night Shadow squadron, their flight formation very peculiar, forming a cross in the air, one in the center, with one on each side, above, and below.

The enemy reinforcements arrived.

The Winged Night Shadow squadron, without a second thought, charged straight ahead.

Boom! Boom! Boom! Boom! Boom!

When less than a hundred meters apart, the Shadow Flyers emitted a loud roar, and alongside it was a violent surge from the front half of the skeletal pipes.

This force was so massive that the recoil from the jet caused the Shadow Flyers to reduce speed by thirty percent.

A massive Bone Bomb shot out from it at terrifying speed, and the moment it exited the tube, this originally compressed massive Bone Bomb instantly shattered into hundreds of fist-sized cone-shaped heads, spinning at high speed, smashing forward like scattered celestial maidens.

At that moment, all realized why the five Shadow Flyers adopted such a peculiar flight formation.

Five crafts, ten cannons.

Formed a massive three-dimensional Skeleton Barrage, not only enveloping most of the Winged Night Shadows but also blocking their escape space.

Apart from flying backward, it’s difficult to evade the barrage by flying up, down, left, or right.

The seemingly only escape route, turning back to fly backward, however, is most dangerous.

During a turn, their body will inevitably have a short halt in the air, allowing more Skeleton Bombs to fall upon them.

"Fly forward, don’t stop, the first two spread wings, brace for impact!

The ones behind use them as a shield, close wings, activate Dark Arts, enter invisibility.

After passing by, don’t pause at all, proceed immediately to the nearest legion, dive to the ground for cover."

The always-aloof Corpse King had a cold glimmer in his eyes, pierced directly through the Specter’s Eye into the opposing battlefield.

His tremendous Will instantly enveloped all the Winged Night Shadows, making the most rightful choice.

The enemy’s speed advantage rendered this battle challenging, not to mention possessing such aerial group attack tactics.

This was an unmistakable dimensional attack, utterly unwinnable. Escaping smoothly was already a victory.

He had reason to believe this was a Trap from the beginning to the end. The first enemy didn’t lack the ability to shake off the Winged Night Shadow squadron but deliberately lured them, awaiting its reinforcements.

This point was verified as the dense Power of Undead rose from the first Shadow Flyer. With its infusion, the near-shattering skeletal cracks healed at visible speed.

Then it drew a graceful arc in the air, looping back at full speed, preparing to strike the Winged Night Shadow squadron’s flank.
