Chapter: 522

They grabbed their hammers and went off to finish the battle.

***Bonus chapter 4/5***


Despite always giving one-hundred percent, the skeletons seemed to be filled with even more blood lust than usual.

Something had dared to hurt their master, and their desire for revenge was even more inflamed by their fellow undead joining them for the revenge crusade.

All four of them charged madly down the hallway, including Blue. It was an all-out attack with zero concern for self-preservation.

The blacksmith statue was free from Anya’s [Prostrate] ability, and prepared as its enemies charged towards it.

Not that the statue knew, but the first skeleton coming was Red.

Red jumped up high with its hammer raised above its skull, bringing forward a downward swing going right for the statue’s head – yet it never landed the hit.

*BOOM!~*

The blacksmith’s stone hammer swung sideways, easily smashing Red into the wall – but Blue followed right after and landed a heavy hit, catching the statue completely off-guard.

*Crack!~*

A critical hit.

It was like Blue had planned this, using a weaker skeleton to take the hit so it would be free to deal damage..

A large chunk of stone bounced off the statue’s shoulder as half of its jaw was shattered away.

The blacksmith’s metal hammer in its other hand was almost completely stone now, and it swung it back quickly.

Blue knew the hit was coming from its second hammer but it didn’t care, it had done its job: cause massive damage, protect its master.

*BOOM!*

Blue was like a ragdoll as it smashed against the other wall, ending up on the opposite wall to Red.

Since the hammer was mostly stone now, it only did normal damage and Blue miraculously survived. Since the blacksmith superweapon turned to stone, the threat of the blacksmith was essentially over.

The statue continued to march towards Jay, while Sweeper and Lamp were ignored as they hacked away at the statues arms and legs, chipping away some more of its health along with some stone fragments.

All the damage was taking its toll on the statue. It was on its last legs and was slowing down. It began to realise the plan to kill the necromancer had failed; each of its swings were getting slower and weaker as its life force began to leave its cold stone body.

Its last metal hammer had finally turned to stone; the curse was complete.

It quickly realised it wasn’t going to make it through this, but this didn’t mean it couldn’t take a few more enemies with it.

*BOOOM!!!!*

Vengeful indignation and bitter hatred almost seemed to create an aura around its body as it suddenly smashed both hammers into the ground, implanting them into the earth.
