Chapter 1202: Chapter 902 Chapter 1202: Chapter 902 Escort Ship.

After a round of bombardment, thick smoke billowed into the sky. Beneath the dust, the upheaved ground and shattered puppet fragments were vaguely visible.

The puppets, thought to be difficult to handle, all turned into fragments under watchful eyes.

The association members watched, feeling as if they had done nothing all the way but followed along in a circle.

Of course, this wasn’t a bad thing.

It’s much better than fighting desperately against those iron lumps.

“Ahead is the shallows, prepare to land.” Philippa’s voice came through.

Looking from the deck, one could see a long stretch of shallow waters leading to the shore.

Through the water, one could still see the rocks below, estimated to cover up to a human’s knee or ankle.

Upon receiving the news, people showed joy while also preparing to board the ship.

Meanwhile, Wu Heng stood at the back, still waiting for news from the Ghost.

“Uncle, that corpse has come to life, it’s Uncle Baolian Lantern.”

The shout from Xiao Xiao echoed in midair.

The sudden shout startled several association professionals on the deck, their weapons clattering as they were drawn.

“It’s my Ghost, don’t panic,” Wu Heng explained, his brows furrowing.

The corpse surely referred to the one inside the building, its level beam appearing and disappearing, reviving as expected.

But how could it be determined to be someone’s uncle?

Swoosh~!

Before he could ask, the distant smoke and dust suddenly swayed.

A streak of light shot over like a missile, approaching the ship in the blink of an eye.

Everyone’s pupils contracted. The Dwarf Elder, relying on the Hunter’s reflexes to sudden dangers, twisted his waist and hurled an iron-black shield like a discus thrower.

The shield’s array pattern shimmered in the air, its surface coated with a golden halo.

Bang~!

A dull crash sounded.

The shield collided with the incoming object, bursting into dense sparks.

Clang clang clang~!

The shield shattered and fell to the ground, while the projectile veered off and embedded itself with a ‘thud’ in the shallow water area.

The crowd focused their gaze, seeing a spear heavily rusted with copper, its point embedded in the black rock, with cracking sounds accompanying.

The rock cracked layer by layer, covered in a web of fissures.

The bronze spear ascended again, flying towards the fortress ahead.

Amidst the gradually dispersing dust, a figure emerged slowly, grasping the spear and gazing from afar.

About 1.8 meters tall, his black hair visibly growing, starting as short hair and gradually reaching shoulder length.

His upper body was bare, with a tattered, rotten skirt armor hanging at his waist.

The most distinctive feature was the third eye in the middle of his forehead.

Only now did they understand why Xiao Xiao said it was Uncle Baolian Lantern.

“That’s the corpse, he can see us too.” Xiao Xiao spoke rapidly as if reporting a misdeed.

Black hair, three eyes!

The Elf Elder glanced forward and asked softly, “Leader, do you know him?”

“I don’t know.” Wu Heng replied.

The Elf Elder shouted towards the front, “Do you live on the island? We are from the association.”

Roar~!

The Three-eyed man emitted a beast-like roar, stamping his foot and charging with his spear explosively.

“Battle!”

Whizz whizz whizz~!

Arrows shot forward; the scholars on the ship tore open one scroll after another, launching fireballs, lightning, and other spells ahead.

The Three-eyed man waved his spear in front, sweeping aside some arrows, his body also dodging.

Everyone furrowed their brows.

Why does it feel like he lacks combat skills, almost as if he’s not very smart?

Yet his steps did not stop.

“Follow me and charge!” The Dwarf Elder roared.

Holding an axe in one hand and a shield in the other, he leaped into the shallows, splashing through the sea water as he charged ahead, a scorching heat wave rolling around him.

Behind him, several Hunter members also charged forward with their weapons.

As they approached, the Dwarf Elder leaped high, swinging his battle axe downwards.

Dang~!

The Three-eyed man blocked upwards with his spear, catching the blow.

“Die!” Another Hunter thrust a longsword towards his heart from the side.

The Three-eyed man freed a hand, grabbed the oncoming blade, and kicked out, sending the Hunter’s body flying backward, tumbling into the deep sea.

He flipped his spear to smash downwards, a sense of crisis rising in the Dwarf Leader’s heart, instantly turning into a raging fury.

The shield met the descending spear, and the battle axe slashed across the waist.

“Die!”

Bang~thud!

The sounds of impact and flesh tearing sounded almost simultaneously. The dwarf’s raised shield shattered instantly, and the spear, like an iron whip, smashed onto his shoulder, collapsing it instantly as white bones pierced through flesh and were exposed.

The battle axe that struck the Three-eyed man’s waist erupted in scorching flames.

Scorching his body to a crisp char.

Everyone’s eyes widened.

The association’s Hunter Elder had his shield and half of his shoulder smashed with one blow.

Even with an elixir, it would be difficult to return to battle in a short time.

Whirr whirr~!

The sound of flight filled the air as two skeletal figures flapped their wings, speeding towards the scene.

Skull Shanshan’s form swelled in the air, transforming into a unicorn over three meters tall, striking the man aside with a ‘bang’.

Skull Tiao Tiao grabbed the fallen Dwarf Elder and tossed him backward.

With a ‘splash’, he landed in the deep water before the ship.

He was rescued by others who plunged into the water, sputtering and muttering, “There’s something wrong with that weapon of his, definitely something wrong.”

The others opened elixirs and scrolls, aiding his recovery.

Clang clang~bang bang~!

The fierce battle sounds continued, as two Level 20 Skeletons–one blocking and swinging fists, the other searching for chances to stab with dual swords aimed at vital spots.
