The template for the three types of magic-based Skeletons is the same, but the skills they know are different.

Shadow Arrow is considered a basic output skill for magic-based classes, and all three types of magic-based Skeletons know it, but the second skill is unique to each.

The Skeleton Apprentice's Shadow Burn is a high damage over time ability.

The Spell Cursed Skeleton's Curse Pain is a damage over time ability as well as reducing physical resistance.

The Voodoo Skeleton's Voodoo Poison Fog deals area of effect damage over time through poison.

Overall, they are considerably more powerful than the Crossbow Skeleton, which currently serves as the main output force of the Skeleton Army.

The only disappointment is that these three types of magic-based Skeletons have no chance of summoning a mutated body, which greatly annoyed Zi Liyuan.

No mutated bodies, what kind of magic profession is that!

After recovering his state, Zi Liyuan changed the composition of his Skeleton Army: 10 Shield Combat Skeletons, 5 Skeleton Behemoths, 20 Skeleton Apprentices, 5 Spell Cursed Skeletons, 5 Voodoo Skeletons.

During this time, Zi Liyuan switched his robe back to the "Ashen Magic Robe (Blue)", restoring his Spirit to 45 points and lowering his Spiritual Power to 52 points, allowing him to control 45 Skeletons.

After changing the team configuration from a meat-cleaver Skeleton squad to a magic-based Skeleton squad, the entire Skeleton Army's combat power had more than doubled.

It wasn't until Zi Liyuan, with his new Skeleton Army, found a squad of Goblins and started to overwhelm them, that he realized just how strong the damage from these magic-based Skeletons actually was.

The LV5 magic-based Skeletons, along with their skills, were also at LV5.

However, the increase in damage for their skills isn't like players', where every level increase doubles the base damage; instead, each level adds +10 base damage, along with a 5% increase in Magic Damage and a 0.1-second reduction in skill casting time.

That is to say, the original 3-second Shadow Arrow skill, at LV5 for them, only needs 2.5 seconds to cast, and the damage becomes 50 + 85% Magic Damage bonus.

Goblin warriors and the Great Goblins, with low magic resistance, could basically take 60+ magic damage from a single Shadow Arrow, to say nothing of the second sustained output skill.

Essentially, 30 Skeleton Mages could deal 80-100 magic damage with one round of output, and the most outrageous part was, these Skeleton Mages didn't need to worry about mana consumption because they had no mana bars!

Originally relying on Crossbow Skeletons to whittle down the bosses' health bit by bit, now with 30 Skeleton Mages focusing their fire, it took only 4 rounds to take down a Goblin Warrior boss in 20 seconds!

The speed of monster hunting increased by a whopping 18 times, efficiency that almost made Zi Liyuan laugh like a fool.

Previously hesitant to venture into the inner forest area, he now did so without any scruples, charging in with his Skeleton Army.

With 5 Skeleton Behemoths leading the way and 10 Shield Combat Skeletons closely following, if the Skeleton Behemoths were taken down in a blink, these Shield Combat Skeletons would immediately step forward to taunt and take on the enemies while the Skeleton Mages cast spells and quickly eliminated the foes.

Watching his experience points continuously roll in, Zi Liyuan felt secretly thrilled and began to upgrade the level of his Shadow Arrow.

At Level 5 Shadow Arrow, the damage reached 160+80% magic damage bonus.

For a Goblin boss, this meant a single Shadow Arrow could deal around 200 magic damage, not to mention Shadow Arrow Rain and Death Shadow Arrow.

It could be said that after reaching Level 20, Zi Liyuan's combat power had increased several folds, and securing the "Bloodthirsty Goblin Forest" dungeon wasn't a sure thing, but he still had an eighty percent chance.

Pushing forward as swiftly as the autumn wind sweeps away the fallen leaves, he cleared both the outer and inner layers of the forest cleanly.

When Zi Liyuan reached the innermost Goblin Tribe of the forest, he had already amassed 420,000 experience points in his pool.

One could only say that the wild dungeons were truly splendid, not only dropping plenty of equipment and materials, but also offering copious amounts of experience.

This Goblin Tribe was larger than imagined, and they had even constructed a stone wall over two meters high on the perimeter.

The buildings within the wall were mostly stone structures, and there was even a Stone Hall about seven or eight meters tall positioned at the center of the tribe.

The more he observed, the worse Zi Liyuan's expression became.

From what he could see on the surface alone, there were at least four Heroic bosses: one Goblin Priest, one Goblin Wizard, one Great Goblin Warrior, and one Goblin Chieftain!

Plus, with who knows how many Elite and Rare bosses inside the tribe, Zi Liyuan dared not set foot in it.

Luring out the lesser monsters and then clearing out the big bosses was the only strategy he could think of.

Fortunately, the monsters in the dungeon were subject to rules, particularly those below the Heroic quality, which faced stricter limitations.

He summoned a Vulture Skeleton, avoiding the positions of the four Heroic bosses, and lured groups of Elite Goblins and Rare Great Goblin bosses out of the Goblin Tribe.

The Skeleton Army waited for the right moment to swarm and block their retreat, followed by the assault of the Skeleton Mages bombarding relentlessly.

A constant stream of Goblins were enticed out by the Vulture Skeleton and then brutally slaughtered and dismembered.

As a large number of Goblins died, unusual activity occurred within the tribe, naturally drawing the attention of the Heroic bosses.

The Heroic Great Goblin Warrior boss directly led 20 Rare Great Goblins to patrol their territory, even venturing out of the tribe to inspect the surrounding forest.

Such a massive boss group was naturally not something Zi Liyuan could currently handle, so he summoned a Vulture Skeleton to maintain a constant watch over the patrol team commanded by the Heroic boss from afar.

Meanwhile, he led his Skeleton Army around to another direction, continuing to use the Vulture Skeleton to lure out Goblins and then encircle and wipe them out completely.

After killing dozens of Goblins, however, another change occurred.

The previous Great Goblin Warrior boss still had not returned from inspecting the situation with his team, and now another Heroic Great Goblin Warrior boss emerged, likewise leading 20 Rare Great Goblins out of the tribe.
