Global Composite Master: Compositing an Undead Army from the Start

Chapter 454: Chapter 240: Incompatible Strength! (Four-in-one)_5

These cultists’ bodily transformations are intimately linked to the magic array. Since the array itself cannot be directly disrupted, perhaps destroying the symbols on their bodies will achieve the same effect.

With this thought, Chen Mo immediately ordered the surviving Skeleton Monsters to direct their attacks at the symbols on the Cultists’ bodies.

A barrage of arrows and Energy Bullets rained down like hail, forming a dark curtain of rain. This curtain swept towards the Cultists like a tempestuous storm.

The arrows whizzed through the air, cutting through it at a rapid pace, while the Energy Bullets, like cannonballs, left trails in the air, emitting sharp whistling sounds.

The dark onslaught rained down like a heavenly torrent, relentlessly striking the symbols on the Cultists’ bodies. In no time, the symbols on their bodies started to shatter.

Strangely enough, even when their Health was depleted, they never let out agonized screams.

Even when they harmed each other, they never let out agonized screams either.

But now, as the symbols on their bodies were attacked and shattered, they let out a chorus of gut-wrenching howls, like wild beasts being torn apart.

The scene was utterly bizarre.

As the Skeleton Monsters’ attacks continued, more and more symbols on the Cultists’ bodies were completely destroyed. Simultaneously, the Dark Power within the Cultists began to fade. Their bodies gradually regained their natural color, and the red glow in their eyes dimmed.

In no time, the symbols on the ground also began to crack and crumble, emitting peculiar sounds.

As more symbols broke, the Cultists’ wails grew louder, echoing through the area like the lamentations of a hundred ghosts. The sound was so terrifying that even the monsters living in the Mystic Forest were too afraid to approach.

With the destruction of the last symbol, the strange Black Hole at the center of the magic array abruptly stopped spinning. After a desperate struggle, it shattered and vanished. The magic array lost its power, and the once mighty Cultists all fell weakly to the ground, convulsing. They groaned in misery. Their bodies, as if drained of all life force, instantly became incredibly weak.

In just three breaths’ time, their bodies suddenly trembled. Then, as if drained of all moisture, they shriveled, eventually turning into desiccated corpses that rotted into the ground, leaving not even bones behind.

Witnessing this, Chen Mo felt a growing unease. He had a strong premonition that this wasn’t over.

After all, The Heavenly Path’s Hint had not yet sounded, indicating that simply destroying the magic array was not the crux of this hidden mission.

However, just as Chen Mo was contemplating this, black smoke suddenly billowed from the withered, rotten body of one Cultist. Instead of decaying further, the smoke rapidly coalesced around the corpse, eventually forming a freakish Black Skeleton that gleamed with a pitch-black luster.

A terrifying aura emanated from this skeleton, and cruel green flames flickered within its eye sockets.

Each step it took was accompanied by the sharp grating of bone against bone.

Above its head, the eerie cloud the Cultists had previously summoned—one capable of unleashing black lightning—began to coalesce once more.

Within the cloud, black lightning constantly rumbled and flashed.

The Black Skeleton, the black lightning, and the black forest combined to form a terrifying and shocking scene.

The moment the Black Skeleton appeared, Chen Mo immediately examined its attributes.

It was clear that he had to defeat the Black Skeleton before him to complete the mission and protect the two innocent villagers.

Just as Chen Mo was examining the attributes of the Black Skeleton…

Suddenly, a loud noise came from the center of the magic array. The place where the Black Hole had been was abruptly ripped open, and a dazzling light gushed out from it.

Chen Mo turned his head and saw a figure materialize in the center of the rift!

This person was clearly related to the Cultists, as he also wore the same style of black robe, though his appeared more opulent.

The figure was tall and slender, exuding an incredibly terrifying aura that seemed to make the surrounding air oppressive and heavy.

This must be the Sect Hierarch of the Cultists, Chen Mo thought to himself.

At this moment, the man’s expression was grim. He glared at Chen Mo and his Skeleton Monsters, his voice cold as he said, “So it was you who destroyed my Dark Abyss Formation and killed the followers of our Abyss God Cult!”

As soon as he finished speaking, he stretched out his hand. A giant black demon hand materialized from thin air and snatched Chen Mo, gripping him from afar.

Abyss God Cult?

Chen Mo recognized the name. He quickly checked The Heavenly Path’s Hint.

He instantly understood.

Good heavens, wasn’t the Sect Hierarch of the Abyss God Cult one of the four Marshals previously mentioned by The Heavenly Path’s Hint?

This must be the City Lord of Storm City.

Chen Mo recalled the information The Heavenly Path had provided about this world.

If I could kill the City Lord of Storm City here, wouldn’t conquering the city become much simpler?
