Necromancer Lords are Weak? Watch Me Recruit Fallen Deities! – Chapter 21

Ch 21: He is Shen Chi, the Top Lord?!

Wang Bin and Zhao Ziqin walked towards Shen Chi.

As they walked, they stared at Shen Chi with ill intentions.

Shen Chi also stopped, sizing them up, his eyes darkening almost imperceptibly.

Wang Bin was from Longhu High School, just like him.

He still remembered his classmate, Chen Xin, telling him that this Wang Bin was spreading rumors everywhere that he had E-grade talent.

Zhao Ziqin glanced at Wang Bin, a teasing look on his face:

“Oh? You guys know each other?”

Wang Bin turned his head, suddenly becoming obsequious:

“Brother Zhao, I’m from the same school as him. He awakened an E-grade undead talent and has long been the laughingstock of the whole school!”

“A garbage undead lord dares to compete with us for resource points. Is he brain-dead or something?”

After mocking Shen Chi, he looked at Zhao Ziqin with a flattering expression:

“Brother Zhao, what do you think? Should I get rid of him for you? With just a bunch of broken skeletons, he can’t withstand two hits from my dwarves!”

But Zhao Ziqin looked at him calmly:

“Did I ask for your input?”

Wang Bin’s face stiffened:

“Brother Zhao, I am doing this for you…”

Zhao Ziqin ignored Wang Bin, took a step forward, and pointed his chin casually at Shen Chi:

“You, whoever you are, if you know what’s good for you, you’ll have your skeletons lure the monsters for me later.”

“Your pile of bones looks intimidating, but it’s actually quite brittle, right? But still, it has some use. You, later, have them all go and tank the Stone Golems, create an output opportunity for us.”

“That way, I won’t make things difficult for you. After I finish cleaning up the Stone Golems, you can leave.”

Zhao Ziqin narrowed his eyes, his tone light and dismissive, as if it was a matter of course.

In his view, although Shen Chi’s skeletons would shatter with a single touch, their advantage lay in their numbers, allowing them to attract most of the firepower and serve as cannon fodder to absorb damage.

Upon hearing this, Wang Bin immediately chimed in:

“Did you hear what my Brother Zhao said? Hurry up and thank Brother Zhao!”

Shen Chi watched their performance quietly, his expression gradually darkening, a frosty look appearing in his eyes.

He spoke calmly, but his tone was icy:

“Get lost.”

Zhao Ziqin and Wang Bin’s expressions instantly turned black!

Wang Bin spat to the side, cursing viciously:

“Damn it, how dare you talk to Brother Zhao like that? Brother Zhao is kind-hearted and isn’t looking for trouble, and that’s how you act? Just who do you think you are!”

Zhao Ziqin’s face was gloomy.

After a moment, he raised his hand, and a 【Beastman Shadow Guard】 slowly walked out from behind him.

He calmed down, his tone turning sinister:

“Your mouth is pretty tough, huh? Fine.”

“Cripple his limbs for me, but leave him breathing. Don’t let him think that just because he doesn’t suffer a death penalty, he can easily slip back to reality.”

“Don’t worry, I’ll make you suffer for a while, so you understand what it means to be weaker than others, and how to act accordingly.”

As soon as he finished speaking.

The tall Beastman Shadow Guard moved its cervical vertebrae, making cracking sounds.

It raised its sharp steel claws, glinting with a cold light, to its mouth, and slowly extended its tongue, lightly licking the claw blades.

The next moment, its figure leaped, turning into a blur as it rushed towards Shen Chi!

Shen Chi, however, didn’t make any move.

In the eyes of others, it was a complete surrender.

Wang Bin shook his head, as if looking at a dead man.

Zhao Ziqin’s face was indifferent.

This was the third newbie lord he had hunted.

All the newbie lords defeated by him were the same.

He would give them a chance, but when the slap really landed on their face, they would start begging for mercy, acting like spineless cowards.

It was boring.

He shook his head slightly, dismissing the thought, and closed his eyes.

The Beastman Shadow Guard instantly approached Shen Chi’s face.

It raised a steel claw, bringing with it a sharp gust of wind.

It was about to strike Shen Chi’s face.

Whoosh—

Clang!

In a flash of lightning, the sound of metal clashing rang out crisply!

Shen Chi still hadn’t moved a finger.

But, a Skeleton Warrior had already raised its iron sword, blocking in front of him!

The Beastman Shadow Guard’s steel claw suddenly collided with the iron sword, actually shaking violently two or three times.

“W-What’s going on?!”

Wang Bin, seeing this scene, widened his eyes, his body stiffened in place, not even knowing what to do with his hands.

Sensing something was wrong, Zhao Ziqin immediately opened his eyes.

After seeing clearly what was happening in front of him, his face was equally filled with astonishment.

Then, his pupils shrank sharply, and he asked in doubt:

“His skeleton blocked my Beastman Shadow Guard? How is that possible?!”

The next moment, the Skeleton Warrior suddenly exerted force, violently tossing the sword upwards.

The Beastman Shadow Guard, which was half a head taller than itself, was directly flipped to the ground!

The Skeleton Warrior pressed forward, once again raising the iron sword in its hand, and slashing down neatly.

In less than a breath, one of the Beastman’s steel claws was severed and fell to the ground!

The Skeleton Warrior quickly raised the iron sword again, and it fell as smoothly as flowing water.

Another steel claw also “plop”ed off.

Then.

The Skeleton Warrior gripped the iron sword tightly with both hands, slowly lifting it upwards, the sword tip pointing down.

In the Beastman’s shrill howl, the sword tip directly penetrated its chest cavity.

“Pfft!”

A stream of black blood spurted out.

The Beastman Shadow Guard’s body convulsed violently.

After a good while, it gradually stopped.

Becoming a lifeless corpse.

A level 39, tier-three Beastman Shadow Guard was killed in a moment!

The scene was silent!

Zhao Ziqin watched helplessly as the Skeleton Warrior straightened its body, ruthlessly pulling out the iron sword.

Its empty eye sockets, without a trace of flesh, were staring straight at him.

As if a hunter had set its sights on its prey!

Zhao Ziqin’s limbs were trembling involuntarily!

All the calmness and composure from before had disappeared!

He tried to appear calm, focusing intently on the Skeleton Warrior in front of him, wanting to probe its specific information.

【???】

As a result, he couldn’t probe anything at all!

Instantly, his legs weakened, unable to stand straight.

His heart was filled with fear.

“This skeleton’s combat strength is above my Beastman Shadow Guard!”

“Moreover, there are at least fifty skeletons behind it!”

“Damn it, aren’t newbie undead lords supposed to be trash?”

A drop of cold sweat slid down his spine.

Thinking of how he had lost five hard-earned tier-three 【Beastman Shadow Guards】 in an instant, his heart ached as if his chest was dripping blood!

Wang Bin’s reaction wasn’t much better.

He stuttered tremblingly:

“Shen… Shen Chi, isn’t he E-grade 【Undead Perception】? Why…”

Zhao Ziqin seemed to notice something and suddenly turned his head.

He grabbed Wang Bin’s collar tightly with both hands and asked in terror:

“…What did you say his name was?”

“Shen… Shen Chi…”

Shen Chi!

Zhao Ziqin’s heart instantly shook.

Wang Bin also gradually came to his senses, his face turning ashen inch by inch.

“Brother Zhao… You, you mean, the one on the leaderboard… Shen Chi?!”

Only then did Wang Bin realize that when he first saw Shen Chi, he hadn’t connected the person in front of him with the top lord on the leaderboard!

In Wang Bin’s mind, wasn’t Shen Chi just a useless undead lord with E-grade talent!

Didn’t Xu He say that Shen Chi was already trash?!

…When did undead lords become so strong??

Suddenly, Zhao Ziqin’s eyes noticed the Skeleton Archers behind Shen Chi, all drawing their bows!

His eyelids twitched violently, and a bad premonition surged into his heart.

Before he could react.

The premonition came true.

Twenty Skeleton Archers unleashed 【Triple Arrow Shot】!

In an instant, a dark mass of arrows appeared in mid-air.

Carrying a substantial killing intent, they shot from behind Shen Chi!
