Gazing at the closely-packed ghosts in the underground town, Song Jian glanced at the eight “T-X High-explosive Grenades” in his inventory. After hesitating for a moment, he mustered the courage and made a crazy decision.

He planned to lure all the ghosts in the underground town and then gather them together, using the T-X High-explosive Grenades to kill them all.

Eight high-explosive grenades theoretically could deal 2200 points of explosive damage, while each ghost had only 1800 vitality points. Moreover, the coverage of the grenade reached eight meters, meaning that within a diameter of eight meters, all ghosts could be killed instantaneously by the eight grenades.

The main difficulty now was to lure all the ghosts in the town and gather them within an eight-meter radius. Few leaks wouldn’t matter, but if too many ghost escaped, and he failed to kill them all, it could possibly trigger the Demonic Zombie Boss. Song Jian might not even be able to run away at that point.

The plan was dangerous, but the gain was substantial. Not to mention anything else, the combat experience gained from killing so many level twenty monsters would be enough for Song Jian to level up. Besides, not clearing out these minor creatures would become dangerous once he encountered the Demonic Zombie Boss, as the battle noises might attract them to him.

Having made up his mind, Song Jian began to run towards the underground

town.

Just as he jumped in front of a stone house, a roar suddenly came from inside.

A pitch-black ghost broke through the door and came out, its blood-red eyes firmly locked on Song Jian, following close behind him.

Instead of stopping, Song Jian rushed towards the center of the town. In no time, the roars of the ghosts echoed throughout the entire underground town.

Ghosts continuously gathered from afar towards Song Jian. Within a matter of seconds, hundreds of ghosts from the entire town were lured by him.

At this moment, Song Jian had reached the center of the underground town. It was a square where a Demonic Zombie Boss, clad in black armors, with goat-like horns on its head, and full of bone spikes all over its body, was incessantly kneeling and worshipping an altar at the center of the square.

This altar, built out of countless white bones, had a palm-sized black flame burning in the center. The Demonic Zombie Boss was muttering words, making peculiar sounds from its mouth. Glowing black and gold runes formed in the void with its chanting before they flitted like moths into the black flame of the altar’s center.

“Demonic Zombie Boss!” Song Jian felt a sinking feeling in his heart. He didn’t expect his mission target to be located in this underground town. And by the look of it, these ghosts chasing his tail were also being enslaved by this Boss. “I’m still one step too late. It seems that this Demonic Zombie Boss has killed all the people. These enslaved ghosts might be the residents who hid in the secret tunnel…” After glancing at the White Bone Altar, Song Jian sighed inwardly.

The mission that the ghost spirit gave him was to kill the Demonic Zombie Boss, not to save the townsfolk. Thus, Song Jian simply sighed faintly without showing much care.

Seeing the Demonic Zombie Boss in the center of the town, Song Jian dared not rush forward. Instead, he changed his direction and continued to lead the ghosts in pursuit.

The ghosts roared and bellowed, shaking the earth. Although they had attracted all the attention, the Demonic Zombie Boss as though deaf and blind, gave no care to Song Jian. Instead, it devoutly worshipped the black flame at the center of the White Bone Altar.

As the Demonic Zombie Boss worshipped, the black flame flickered slightly, seemingly getting a bit bigger.

Now that he had found his target, Song Jian had no time to deal with the Demonic Zombie Boss. He had a large group of ghosts chasing him from behind, the nearest of which was less than five meters away from him.

Seeing ghosts from all sides rushing towards him, Song Jian immediately activated Sword Shadow Step, and his silhouette instantly became a cloud of black mist. His speed increased dramatically as he quickly rushed to a nearby stone house.

Roar roar roar-

The level twenty ghosts let out furious roars. The entire town’s ghosts became agitated. The noise caused by Song Jian attracted their full attention. They completely surrounded the stone house where Song Jian was hiding.

This stone house wasn’t big, only about ten square meters. The entrance was a wooden door, which had long rotted away and shattered at the slightest touch.

The door was wide open, but only two could pass through at the same time. Suddenly, pitch-black ghosts started pushing and shoving, trying to break into the stone house.

These ghosts’ bodies looked like a cloud of thick and dark mist, even overlapping a small part with each other’s. It looked densely packed and chilling.

As all the ghosts gathered at the door, Song Jian took a potion from his inventory and hurled it into the crowd of ghosts.

With a “bang”, the Weakness Potion immediately enveloped dozens of ghosts. Next, a T-X High-explosive Grenade was thrown into the middle of the weakened ghosts.

Boom!

A loud explosion erupted in the crowd of ghosts. Countless ghosts were blasted into the air by the grenade, and rows of damage numbers floated above their heads.

A violent shock wave spread in all directions from the center of the explosion, causing the surrounding ghosts to stagger.

Broken Wing Dance!

Song Jian swung his long sword, rushed towards the ghosts blocking the door, and effortlessly killed them under the multiple skill attacks. But, new ghosts quickly filled up the gaps.

Boom, boom, boom-

Another series of explosions sounded. The ghosts, whose defenses had been reduced by 35%, simply could not withstand the power of the high-explosive grenades. Every ghost within the explosion’s range had damage numbers of over three hundred floating above their heads.

Next, when Song Jian’s skill cooldown ended, he unleashed another series of skills, clearing out a large number of ghosts at the doorway.

By the time all eight high-explosive grenades had been used, only about a dozen severely wounded ghosts remained outside the stone house. There was black ash everywhere, which was the remains of the dead ghosts.

Seeing Song Jian charging out of the stone house, the remaining dozen wounded ghosts hesitated momentarily and then began to scatter in all directions.

At this time, how could he possibly let them escape? Song Jian activated Sword Shadow Step and killed all the ghosts. Within less than five minutes, he had killed hundreds of level twenty monsters. His experience points broke through level fifteen and reached 9% of level sixteen.

The extra skill point Song Jian earned was immediately allocated to the “Earth Teeth Assault” skill, which had been at 100% proficiency but could not be upgraded due to lack of skill points. Now, it was finally upgraded from level one to level two.

Song Jian killed all of the town’s ghosts, and began collecting the loot they dropped.
