“Jared, I forgot to mention, as long as there are bones, you cannot kill the bone giant. It can resurrect,” Rainier confidently said to Jared.
Jared remained silent, his expression unchanged, showing neither surprise nor shock. Even if the bone giant could regenerate, Jared’s eyes reflected absolute confidence, as though its efforts were futile.
Sensing his quiet disdain, the bone giant let out a thunderous roar, its fury shaking the ground beneath them.
Roar…
The bone giant bellowed in fury, its massive form, assembled from countless bones, exuded an aura that sent chills down one’s spine.
Its hollow eye sockets shimmered with a mysterious, green flame as its right claw fiercely swiped at Jared.
Whoosh!
Jared moved swiftly across the ground, as if he were a phantom. However, the scope of the Bone Giant’s attack was simply too vast, and he wasn’t able to completely evade it.
He twisted his body to the side, his left hand forming a fist, and launched a powerful strike toward the bone giant’s clawed arm.
Boom!
Jared’s fist erupted with a powerful force, colliding with the bone giant’s clawed arm, generating a thunderous noise that shook the earth.
The bone giant’s clawed arm quivered slightly from the impact of the punch, causing tiny fragments of bone to scatter from it.
“Hmph! You will meet your end right here,” Jared said coldly, his voice sharp and unwavering. His right hand tightened around the Dragonslayer Sword as the blade shimmered with a fierce, icy glow. With a powerful motion, he thrust the sword forward, aiming directly for the bone giant’s leg, determined to bring the towering creature down.
Crack!
The Dragonslayer Sword pierced into the leg bone of the bone giant, causing a series of cracks to appear.
“Ah!”
The bone giant felt pain and let out a roar of rage.
It lifted its other foot, ruthlessly stomping down at Jared.
Thud, thud, thud…
Jared leaped back swiftly, each landing leaving a profound footprint on the ground.
With a powerful push from his legs, he leaped high into the air. Grasping the sword’s hilt tightly in both hands, he plunged it straight toward the skull of the bone giant.
Boom!
As the tip of the sword made contact with the skull of the bone giant, it sparked a dazzling burst of light. Within that radiance lay a formidable force, powerful enough to blow a large hole into the skeleton’s skull.
“Since you’re so resilient, I guess I’ll have to step up my game.”
Jared’s gaze hardened, his resolve steeling as the spiritual energy within him surged wildly. A faint golden glow began to radiate from his body.
“Attack!”
Jared brandished his Dragonslayer Sword, launching a wave of golden spiritual energy toward the bone giant.
Boom!
The serrated blade fiercely struck the bone giant, causing its massive body to stagger backward.
“Rainier, if not now, when should we attack?” Cassius suddenly interjected with a cold tone.
With his hands clasped together, Cassius began to murmur an incantation under his breath. A shadow, dark as night, sprang forth from his hands, hurtling rapidly toward Jared’s back.
At the same time, Rainier sprang into action. He moved in a flash, swift as a streak of black lightning. In his hand, he gripped a black dagger, lunging toward Jared’s side.
“Mr. Chance, be careful…”
Trystan and Nieva were taken aback as they issued Jared a warning.
They never expected that Cassius and Rainier would actually resort to a sneak attack. It was simply shameless.
Trystan and his men were eager to leap into action, ready to lend Jared a hand. However, Jared waved his hand to stop them.
“Hmph. Did they really think they could ambush me like that?”
Jared let out a cold huff. Even though his attention was entirely focused on the bone giant, he had been on guard all this while.
His body suddenly spun in mid-air, much like a top.
Ding, ding, ding.
Jared deftly countered the shadow attack from Cassius and the dagger assault from Rainier with seamless precision.
Both Cassius and Rainier stood frozen, utterly taken aback; they hadn’t anticipated Jared’s swift response.
At that moment, seizing the opportunity, the bone giant launched another attack. It opened its enormous mouth, forming a sphere of dark energy within.
