After Turning Into A Little Skeleton, I Got Contracted By A Goddess

The Figure of Light's Bitterness and Fury

It was to the extent that the high-level combat power of both sides remained in a stalemate, and neither side would directly attack.

However, the monsters were more worried about the figure of light because they didn't know why the beast tide had appeared.

In the past, the beast tide had been, at most, a leader coming up with an idea and ordering some monsters to test the humans' defensive lines or get rid of some useless ones in the clan.

However, the beast tide this time was different. Some of the monster leaders had been manipulated. No matter how others tried to stop them, they couldn't take them out of it. Therefore, they all turned their attention to the figure of light.

However, the figure of light's mysteriousness made everyone hold back, not knowing how to deal with this guy.

In less than five minutes, Zhou Mingrui and Yan Wuyue had worked together to kill more than ten level-5 monsters. Furthermore, their speed and efficiency were still increasing.

The surrounding level-5 monsters were enraged as well, so they began to surround Zhou Mingrui in a frenzy.

However, Zhou Mingrui would immediately activate Samsara Territory to hold the whip hand once he found the situation started to get overwhelming.

Such an unfair fighting strategy made the level- 5 monsters furious and wanted to launch a group attack, for this human could always summon the corpses of their own kind to stop them.

Although these corpses were weak, they could still stop their movements.

As a result, they couldn't make progress. If they launched a group attack, they would hurt their companions on such a crowded battlefield.

[ Zhou Mingrui, I just realized that these guys aren't completely under control. ] Yan Wuyue suddenly said.

[ What do you mean? ] Zhou Mingrui asked as he fought.

[ They still have the ability to think. If they didn't, they would have kept fighting regardless of the casualties, ] Yan Wuyue replied.

Zhou Mingrui observed for a moment and realized that Yan Wuyue was right.

[ This information doesn't change anything. We still have to fight the monsters, ] Zhou Mingrui ridiculed.

[ Who knows? Maybe it'll be handy at one point, ] Yan Wuyue said to himself.

Following that, Zhou Mingrui's battle turned white-hot. After all, although level- 5 monsters weren't as many as level-4 ones, there were still quite a number of them.

Standing in front of less than a hundred monsters, he realized that tens of thousands of them were still waiting for him.

If this continued, he wouldn't be able to clear all these monsters before being drained out.

Most importantly, his secret skill, Soul Attachment, could not be activated continuously.

Even if he had been trying to control the output of the skills, he only had less than half an hour left to use.

The area was filled with level-5 monsters. How many could he kill in half an hour?

At that moment, Zhou Mingrui received the notification of his level-up, and the energy in his body immediately increased. The half-hour duration was extended to about an hour.

Level 49.

An idea suddenly came to Zhou Mingrui's mind.

[ Zhou Mingrui, how much longer can you last? ]

Yan Wuyue naturally noticed his condition, so she asked after doing some math.

[ It was half an hour, but I can hold on for about an hour after leveling up, ] Zhou Mingrui answered honestly.

[ What? Did you level up again? ] Yan Wuyue said helplessly, [ I've only reached level 45 after all this hard work. How come you're about to reach level 50? ]

[ Is this considered fast? If these level-5 monsters weren't that difficult, I would've killed even more already, ] Zhou Mingrui said in an upset tone.

Yan Wuyue raised her eyebrows and said, [ You'd better be careful. They have a certain level of self-awareness now, so they can feel afraid and control themselves. ]

[ If that guy completely controls them, we won't be able to handle the madness. ]

Zhou Mingrui squinted his eyes when he heard that. As he fought, he subconsciously looked up into the sky from the corner of his eye. The figure of light was constantly floating in the air.

[ As long as I can reach level 50 first, my strength will be improved. That's why leveling up is our priority now! ]

Zhou Mingrui could subtly sense something special, but he was unable to explain it clearly.

The next second, Zhou Mingrui shifted his attention back to killing the monsters.

At this moment, the figure of light in the sky also noticed Zhou Mingrui's actions. As he had to fight with Lieutenant General Yu and the others, he reduced the level of control, causing many of the monsters to recover a certain amount of intelligence.

However, he didn't dare to completely let go because his enemies had been carefully monitoring him. Any movement could lead to a series of attacks.

The figure of light could also sense the gazes of the high-level monsters hiding in the dark, and he also knew what was in their minds. Meanwhile, he had to spare some energy to keep an eye on them.

"If there weren't these damn restrictions of this world, I would've killed these things long ago!" the figure of light cursed in his heart.

When he invaded this world, he had expected to be the ruler easily.

Who knew that an extremely strange rule, or even a mysterious power that might have surpassed the rules, would appear after it took control of a certain number of monsters?

The limitations didn't hurt the figure of light, but they suppressed its strength again and again. Controlling these many monsters shouldn't have affected its power, but the situation was tricky now.

This was also why the figure of light had become like this. Otherwise, he would have long defeated this group of people with his strength before entering this world.

Something seemed to hit the figure of light when he saw Zhou Mingrui constantly torturing his lackeys in the beast tide.

The limitation of its strength also trapped its sense. However, after taking a closer look, he could feel it again. Moreover, he soon realized that this guy had been one of his targets before.

This time, the figure of light went ballistic. Being suppressed in this world was frustrating enough, but his enemy before was also here to be against him. How could he stay calm?

The figure of the light suddenly began to emit red light, which made Lieutenant General Yu startled, thinking that the figure of light was about to launch his final attack.

However, after waiting for a few seconds, the figure of light did not attack them. Instead, he stayed still and did not leave.

While Lieutenant General Yu and the others were puzzled, Zhou Mingrui was still fighting.

Zhou Mingrui, who was in the middle of a battle, suddenly felt that something was amiss. The level- 5 monsters had begun to slow down. Furthermore, the monsters that were about to charge at him had also stopped.

Zhou Mingrui and Yan Wuyue scanned their surroundings in confusion, and the strange situation made them have a bad feeling.

The next moment, the eyes of the monsters around Zhou Mingrui and Yan Wuyue suddenly turned dull, regardless of their species.
