Global Apocalypse: All My Awakened Talents Are SSS-level

Chapter 9: Chapter9-The Skeleton General Appears

The Celestial Bureau Chief\'s gaze shifted, settling on a young woman in the room.

Clad in a sharp suit, her features radiated a cold and austere beauty.

Yet, a seductive allure emanated from the corners of her lips and the depths of her eyes.

This blend of purity and temptation, like the mingling of ice and fire, was irresistible.

Her primary talent was known as "Captivating Beauty."

An S-level enchantment talent, her beauty could eclipse many silver-screen stars, all thanks to this gift.

"Emma," the Chief began, "I task you with approaching this emerging powerhouse, attempting to persuade him to join our Celestial Bureau. A woman\'s touch might be more fitting, and if necessary... you may employ certain... special means."

Emma\'s gaze faltered for a split second, clearly affected by the Chief\'s words.

The Chief noticed her emotional stir. "Any reservations?"

Emma promptly stood, determination evident in her demeanor. "None whatsoever. I will complete this mission."

The Chief offered a slight smile, nodding in approval. "Emma, do not resent your uncle. I believe, if your parents were aware, they\'d concur with my decision."

Emma gently shook her head. "I hold no resentment."

"Those bright eyes can\'t hide your true feelings. In these turbulent times, without the protection of a strong ally, someone of your beauty would inevitably face many perils. Having a powerhouse by your side is a great comfort, both for you and your family."

"I understand, Mr. Rosewood."

...

Meanwhile, Harrison was deep in the wilderness, scouring the area for signs of monsters, blissfully unaware that his identity had been exposed to the world.

But even if he knew, it wouldn\'t sway his composure.

In his mind, such things were inevitable and merely a matter of time.

He didn\'t mind the limelight, for it meant stepping into the public\'s view sooner.

Notoriety, after all, could be a protective cloak, shielding him from many troubles.

Just then, a ferocious creature resembling a scorpion charged at him, its venomous tail gleaming coldly, thrusting towards Harrison with unstoppable force.

With ease, Harrison drew out his wand, from which burst forth an intense ray of fire.

In an instant, the monster was reduced to a wisp of ash.

The fiery beam, nearly two meters wide, looked utterly unstoppable.

Through Harrison\'s relentless advancements, the scorching ray of flame had been augmented to its fifth stage, becoming more robust and boasting a staggering range of 500 meters.

Additionally, it possessed a unique "Incinerate" effect.

Any creature touched by this flame would experience the agony of internal combustion.

Unless a special spell purified them, they would be reduced to mere ash in the fire.

Thanks to Harrison\'s distinctive "Lord of Element" effect, monsters would vanish instantaneously under his blaze.

Beside him, the goblin minion that Harrison had summoned stared in horror at the burnt remains, its tiny legs trembling involuntarily.

[Goblin Scout]

[Level]: 15

[Rank]: Common

[Base Strength]: 24

[Base Constitution]: 16

[Base Agility]: 44

[Base Wisdom]: 2

[Talent]: None

[Skill]: Sprint

This goblin was specially summoned by Harrison to scout for lurking monsters.

Its diminutive frame concealed astonishing speed, far surpassing Harrison himself.

At this moment, Harrison\'s power had already reached the pinnacle of level 15.

Similarly, the goblin he summoned shared his level.

In the Red Mist game, leveling up posed a significant challenge, but Harrison seemed to have cracked the code, advancing at an accelerated pace.

It\'s said that after reaching level 50, each level-up would be as lengthy as flipping through a page of historical rings, spanning several years.

However, once one reached level 20, they could access the Underground Caves.

As for these cave entrances, Harrison knew them as if they were his own treasures.

Near Silverglow, there existed a hidden sanctuary called the Flame Underground Cave.

There, monsters of fire attribute roared with blazing fury, all under the dominion of the renowned Flame Lord.

Though Harrison was eager to explore, his current level restricted him from venturing inside.

The Underground Caves resembled a concealed subterranean kingdom.

Inside, monsters flowed like an endless river.

Deep within each cave, a Lord-level BOSS stood guard.

Should one conquer the challenges therein, they would have the opportunity to soar, advancing five levels in succession.

Yet, the strength and numbers of monsters inside the caves surged like a rising tide.

If players neglect their presence for too long without purging them, these monsters might emerge from the depths, wreaking havoc upon the surface world again and again.

Once there stood an ancient city. In its time, the strongest of its inhabitants departed, leading to the Underground Cave being neglected for half a year.

Eventually, the trapped monsters rallied and attacked the city.

Even the guardian BOSS emerged from the Underground Cave, occupying every inch of the city\'s terrain.

The blood of the deceased flowed like a crimson stream, pooling at the base of the city walls.

The city\'s rivers too became overrun with lifeless entities.

It was estimated that the number of casualties within the city reached five million.

Harrison was acutely aware of the bloodshed of this catastrophe.

He vowed that, having set foot in this place, he would not let history repeat itself.

Back to reality.

Harrison gazed into the distance.

The monsters he\'d cleared from this land were now completely eradicated.

It was time to embark on a new journey.

Of course, that peculiar goblin was always at the forefront, leading the emergence of the monsters.

Harrison\'s eyes tracked the goblin as it dashed ahead.

Quickening his pace, he intended to follow.

Soon after, the goblin came tumbling back from the front, its tattered staff in hand. "Master, I\'ve encountered a massive monster!"

Hearing the goblin\'s cry, Harrison\'s heartbeat quickened.

Could it be the BOSS-level monster he had been anticipating?

"You retreat to the rear. Keep an eye out for any other monsters lurking in ambush."

"As you command, Master."

The goblin cautiously retreated behind Harrison, vigilantly scanning the surroundings.

Harrison, meanwhile, moved forward with resolute steps.

In an instant, an imposing skeleton warrior gradually came into his view.

He noticed its iron-gray armor and the chilling gleam of the massive blade it wielded.

This evoked a flash of surprise in Harrison\'s eyes.

It was a monster of the wraith race.

Truly unexpected.

Could there be a Dimensional Fissure in this region?

Typically, warriors of the wraith race would only swarm out at the onset of the catastrophe a year hence.

He immediately pulled up his current attributes for review.

[Furious Skeleton General]

[Level]: 18

[Rank]: Dark Gold (common, elite, bronze, silver, gold, dark gold, diamond)

[base strength]: 290

[base constitution]: 306

[base agility]: 264

[base wisdom]: 2

[talent]: Skeletal Rebirth.

[skills]: Undead Sweep, Mighty Swing, Foul Slash, Miasma Pervasion.

As Harrison scrutinized the attributes of the Skeleton General before him, his gaze sharpened.

He hadn\'t anticipated such a formidable set of traits on the Skeleton General.

A Dark Gold-tiered BOSS monster like this, if it were to infiltrate Silverglow, would undoubtedly raze the city.

None would be able to escape its razor-edged blade.

Moreover, the prefix "Furious" indicated its heightened aggressiveness!
