Runemaster in the Last Days
Chapter 492 - 492: “…”

RUMBLE!

The ground trembled violently.

In one strike, the skeleton dragon that still looked so menacing has been cut into several pieces by Samuel.

"Done." Samuel took out a scroll and tore it.

Swish!

Several light rushed towards the dragon skeleton on the ground and then formed a mark on each bones, sealing them all one by one. This was the special magic scrolls that Riya had prepared for them to deal with the lich.

Basically, lich's summon would never end as long as he has enough mana and materials for his summons.

So the best way to deal with him would be to destroy all the materials or to kill him first. Considering that a lich would never step forward to fight on its own without regards of safety, the second plan would be difficult to implement.

Both Riya and Samuel knew it very well.

So they opted the first one.

But rather than destroying all the materials, which would be difficult considering how hard the bones of these rank 6 skeleton dragon were, they used another method.

Which was to 'seal' the bones temporarily.

It would make the lich lose connection with most of the bones, preventing it from forming the complete skeleton dragon. And an incomplete skeleton dragon was really weak and was not worth paying attention to.

Bang! Swish!

The remaining bones rushed over, trying to form the skeleton dragon again.

But what formed was nothing more than a mess of bones cluttered together.

Those who saw it would definitely scold whoever designed it because it looked really bad. And the skeleton dragons could barely move.

Samuel smirked when he saw it.

"You can't defeat me so easily this time."

Swish! Bang!

The skeleton dragon was slashed through once more and Samuel didn't bother to use mana. His sword was more than enough to deal with this incomplete skeleton dragon.

RUMBLE!

At this moment, the ground shook once more and Samuel could guess that there would be more skeleton dragons summoned. But even if the two of them settled on the first plan, there were not many sealing scrolls that Riya handed over to Samuel.

After all, to be able to seal a rank 6 magic beasts, she had to make rank 6 magic scrolls.

The materials were limited.

Riya didn't make that many and only handed a handful of them to Samuel to deal with these dragon skeletons.

So when Samuel sensed the ground shook once more, he stimulated lightning into his feet and rushed over towards the sea of skeletons in the distance.

Bang! Peng! Bang!

At this moment, Riya had already rushed over to the sea of skeletons ahead of Samuel. She was looking at the number of skeletons that kept on increasing and looked down at the ground.

Lich was really similar to necromancer.

The difference is that this lich is not human.

They were formed from special type of magic beast that had strong mental control and dark element. Through some methods, they would be able to become a lich and controlled these ∂ark element magic beasts and skeletons.

The dark element controlled by the lich were usually termed as shadow creature.

And at this moment, the shadow creatures were mixed with the skeletons, rushing towards Riya and Samuel.

She looked at these shadow creature that tried to blend into darkness but failed miserably. And Riya kept on walking.

These shadow creatures and skeletons could not see her.

But whenever Riya passed by, a lot of magic beasts would die.

"The concealing formation is even more effective at rank 6." Riya was happy when she sensed these magic beasts didn't manage to sense her.

In this way, she could sneak into the magic beasts army without the need to worry so much in the future.

Of course, that was if she wanted to repeat this method again.

After all, she had to specifically used a dark element magic beasts' blood to make the formation that could conceal her presence like this.

Otherwise, it would not work.

But this was good enough.

Slash! Peng! Thud!

Countless bones fell down on the ground and just when Riya thought that she would be able to reach the lich without any magic beast hindering her, she sensed the Protective Rune Circle trembled violently.

Riya stopped and looked at the magic beast that completely blend into the darkness.

"Peak rank 6 shadow creature."

She should have expected that it would not be so easy to reach the lich.

Riya's expression turned solemn as she raised her hand and formed a few more runes and formation to deal with these shadow creatures.

Boom! Boom!

From the other side, Samuel also rushed forward and crushed the skeletons dragon that came to him. He used the sealing magic scroll that Riya gave him three times and all three skeleton dragons were sealed.

The end result was that the shape of the dragon turned obscure.

Just when Samuel felt happy, he saw that the bones from the three skeleton dragon merged into one.

While the shape was still indescribable, it was much better than when there were three separate skeleton dragons.

Samuel: "…"

He silently slashed the skeleton dragon apart before tossing another seal scroll before making his way towards the lich in the distance.

The poor skeleton dragon didn't know what it hits before it shattered and then sealed once more. The connection with the lich was cut off, so it could not move anymore.

Swish!

Shadow creature appeared from underground, opening up a large area.

Samuel saw this and his eyes condensed. "Lightning Storm Strike!"

Lightning element raged on, killing countless shadow creature that was rushing towards him and were busy protecting the lich.

Even without the skeleton dragon, there were still many shadow creature alone.

But it's not good enough.

Samuel saw the lich in front of him and raised his sword high. "Great Lightning Storm Strike!"

BOOM! BOOM!

The ground trembled and countless magic beasts were hit violently by Samuel's attack.
