Monster Hunting High School

"This world has been sleeping for too long."

A short and thin skeleton clicked its fragile chin and walked slowly in the empty and desolate darkness. Its skull was dark, with a scorched smell after being burned by charcoal fire; iron chains as thick as arms were wrapped around the skinny ribs, turned over the shoulder blades, hung back, and then extended all the way until they disappeared in the In endless darkness.

It was as if he was wearing a shabby cloak woven with iron chains.

Click, click, click.

The sound of the iron chains rubbing against the gravel was extremely harsh and could be heard far and wide in this closed world, but even so, its hoarse and low voice still echoed in the wilderness:

"...This world has been sleeping for too long, too long...Oh, this ubiquitous atmosphere of despair and resentment...is really intoxicating."

Click, click, click.

The drag of the iron chain caused strings of tiny sparks to rub against the gravel, as if the cloak was decorated with decorations. Flashing and extinguishing, the tall, ferocious, yet submissive figures surrounding the thin skeleton were reflected.

Click.

The footsteps stopped, and the sparks stopped lighting up. The thin skeleton slowly turned its skull, and two extremely dark scarlet dots lit up in the black eye holes.

"Impolite guy." It looked at a skeleton on its right side.

It was the remains of a dark elf, with a slender, pitch-black skeleton and long silver hair hanging from his head. Skeletons with hair were very rare, so the thin skeleton had always treasured this collection.

But at this moment, it looked at the dark elf as if the collection had been stolen, and its tone seemed a little annoyed: "...is something wrong?"

The dark elf took a few steps forward, and with every step she took, a patch of thick and cold white frost was left under her feet; with every step she took, her figure shrunk a little.

After a few steps, a patch of frost was left behind her, and her figure shrank to three points shorter than the thin skeleton.

Then she turned back, looked up at the thin skeleton, and opened her slender arms, as if she was embracing the world and praying to it.

"I have met the great His Highness Su Jiade." Her tone was very respectful.

"Is something wrong?" The thin skeleton tugged on the iron chain on his ribs impatiently, pulling up a few shining sparks behind him. The sparks reflected on the dark elf's face, making her skeleton look gray.

In her eyes, the scarlet color jumped in fear, like a flame trembling under the strong wind.

"It's been a long time since I felt the breath of the dark elf." The dark elf put away his arms and hugged himself. His hanging hair covered his skull and his crackling chin: "It's such a nostalgic breath... …Even though she’s not my child.”

There was silence.

There was no light in the darkness, only the two dim scarlet dots in the eyes of the thin skeleton were flickering. It looked at the dark elf in silence for a long time, then clicked its chin and repeated the previous question:

"What's up?"

"The number of my warriors is too small, and your collection is so rich." The dark elf raised his head, and the scarlet in his eyes seemed to be completely extinguished in the next second: "The defense layer of those wizards' castles is too strong , and they repeatedly 'cleaned' a while ago and took away many of my beautiful seeds... Now they have sent a bunch of great wizards... With my current strength alone, it is difficult to break through that thick layer of Turtle shell."

"I don't understand." The thin skeleton interrupted the elf's endless complaints and said dryly.

The dark elf was silent for a moment. He crossed his hands and held them in front of his chest. He looked up at the thin skeleton and said in a pitiful tone: "Lend me a thousand warriors... After all, we are allies."

If it were a truly charming dark elf, this gesture might make one's mind sway and fall into intoxication. But the dark elf in front of him is just a skeleton.

Not only was there no flattery in her behavior, but it revealed a strange sense of weirdness. Fortunately, the thin skeleton opposite was not a living thing - just like Dong Shi winking at the blind man. Although it was tragic, the lethality was not as great as imagined.

"ally."

Su Jiade's dark mandible clicked, trembled twice, and seemed to be laughing: "What an interesting word... If the long life in prison means anything to me, it is that I can't trust anyone, and don't expect to be in the dark." There are no allies in eternal darkness."

"The gods of the old days, gods of other worlds, demons, and ghosts, although we are imprisoned in the same withered world by the same enemy, and now we all plan to do something to them...but this does not mean that we are allies ”

"If you want my warriors, come and get them yourself!"

"You are a god... don't be like a real spider who only dares to hide in caves and rock crevices to peek at the coming storm! Don't let your dirty spider silk fall into my possession. On the children!”

When he said the last few words, Su Jiade raised his right hand and slowly clasped his five dry and slender fingers, as if a dark flower had closed its petals.

Its knuckles cracked.

The bones of the shorter dark elf in front of it were shattered by its clenched fist, turning into a pile of fine ashes in the blink of an eye. Only two fragile scarlet dots jumped out of the skull and disappeared. In Sujiade's eyes.

In the air, the female voice's chuckle slowly faded away.

The thin skeleton raised his head, breathed out slowly, waved his hands, and continued walking forward.

Click, click, click.

Strings of golden sparks burst into the air again, illuminating the surroundings moment after moment. Behind the thin skeleton, there were countless shadowy figures in the darkness, stumbling and walking slowly following its pace.

There are giants as tall as mountains, covered with pale white fur; there are ghosts with slender bodies, green faces and fangs, and malicious eyes; there are short mandrills that silently make faces and jump between giants and ghosts. ; There are also death knights riding tall horses and covered in thick black armor.

Of course, the most numerous undead in the team were those with broken bodies and even many incomplete skeletons. They moved forward silently among the strings of golden sparks. Their legs were broken, and a rib was removed to make a prosthetic limb to continue following the team.

Click, click, click!

Golden sparks shot out, and Su Jiade, who was walking at the front of the team, suddenly stopped, raised his hand, and looked into the distance.

In the distant darkness, at the end of the field of vision, a thin beam of light suddenly bloomed in the darkness, turning into a brilliant flower of light, illuminating a small patch of night.

"The world... is about to wake up."

The thin skeleton murmured, his eyes full of scarlet.

Behind it, countless undead raised their heads at the same time, and countless scarlets lit up, forming a scarlet river.
