"I know you two want to move your body, but it\'s not about moving your body, but benefit. The Skelly will get more benefits for defeating them than you guys. I need to raise their levels." He told them reasons why he wanted the Skelly Family to face the remaining Rock Lizardmen.

Kaiser and Keeper would gain dozens of levels for defeating the Ancient Rank Rock Lizardmen. Skelly1 to Skelly7 would also gain dozens of levels by defeating the ten Epic Ranks, while it was not much for Zowen and Rosalie to gain from killing the remaining Rock Lizardmen.

"Then I will help Kaiser and Keeper to face the Ancient Rank Rock Lizardmen. I will also benefit from killing their leader." Zowen found the loophole to keep her participation in the fight. The Ancient Rank Rock Lizardmen was level 1924, four hundred levels above Zowen\'s level. She could gain at least twenty levels from participating in killing The Ancient Rank Rock Lizardmen.

Kaiser was aware of its role as soon as its Master decided on the group. He would be the vanguard against the Ancient Rank Rock Lizardmen, while Zowen and Keeper would be the main attackers. The Abyssal Skeleton transformed his hand into a triangle shield. Even though he did not use the usual blade, the edge of the triangle shield was as sharp as the blade. He could use the shield to attack the Ancient Rank Rock Lizardmen.

Different from the other Rock Lizardmen, the eleven Rock Lizardmen did not initiate the attack but guarded the altar. It seemed the altar was more important for them than protecting their own kind. If the other Rock Lizardmen did not have a weapon, the eleven Rock Lizardman had a red spear in their hand and also red-rock armor on their chest.

Skelly1\'s group immediately pulled the attention of the ten Epic Rank Rock Lizardmen, separating the ten lizardmen away from their leader. Kaiser rushed toward the Ancient Rank Rock Lizardmen, thrusting the shield in his right toward the chest.

Of course, being the highest rank meant the lizardmen were the strongest. The Ancient Rank Rock Lizardmen smacked the shield down with the spear, then, in the next movement, the spear moved toward Kaiser\'s skull.

The quick movement and counterattack caught Kaiser off guard, but it managed to use the second shield to block the spear. Kaiser, who was in the air, got pushed back while the Ancient Rank remained in the same spot.

Bam!

At this moment, Keeper shot the first sniper bullet, aiming at the lizardmen\'s head. The Rock Lizardmen seemed to sense the danger that came for it. The red crystal on its back glowed as a red barrier formed around it. The barrier reflected the bullet, leaving no scratch or even a crack on the barrier.

It was followed by Zowen\'s spell, Lightning Strike. The strike came from the sky and hit the barrier. Even the lightning from Zowen failed to break the barrier. However, Zowen had other means than her lightning spell. She activated [Negate] toward the barrier. Negate was a spell that canceled the ongoing spell, but to her surprise, [Negate] failed to cancel the barrier.

"It\'s not a skill; that\'s why Negate does not work?" That was the only explanation because [Negate] did not work on artifacts. If the crystal on Rock Lizardmen was similar to the artifact, then that might be the case.

Keeper, who stopped firing for a moment, finished charging the Dark Energy for its rail gun. It released dark energy. The dark beam shot through the air and hit the red barrier. It exploded as the dark gas shrouded the lizardmen.

With a big swing of its spear, the dark gas dispersed. The Ancient Rank Rock Lizardmen looked toward where the black beam came from. It immediately found the shooter, and the Rock Lizardmen, for the first time, took the initiative to attack first.

Kaiser would not let it happen as it charged toward the lizardmen from the side with the shield. The big blunt force sent the lizardmen to the ground. By the time it got up, a lightning cage had formed around it.

The Rock Lizardmen tried to break apart the lightning cage with its spear. It swung the spear to the lightning cage. However, he got zapped by the lightning as soon as the spear touched the lightning. Even though the lightning kept attacking it, the Rock Lizardmen did not stop swinging the spear to the lightning cage.

Of course, Zowen did not waste this chance as she used Lightning Strike again; not just one, but five Lightning Strikes descended from the sky. The spell destroyed the lightning cage along with the Rock Lizardmen.

However, it was still not enough to even injure the Ancient Rank Rock Lizardmen. The Rock Lizardmen dashed out of the explosion with the same red barrier. It managed to activate the second barrier before the five Lightning Strikes landed. This time the lizardmen changed the target toward Zowen. It seemed the lizardmen moved based on an individual threat. Before, it felt threatened by Keeper, and now it felt threatened by Zowen. It was like a robot that was programmed to move with a certain condition.

Of course, Keeper had finished charging the Dark Energy for the second shot. The black beam shot through the air and hit the red barrier. The shot stopped the lizardmen. That was the impact of the shot, not because the lizardmen wanted to stop running by themselves after detecting the danger.

The second shot was not enough to break the red barrier. The barrier was much stronger than everyone thought. Five Lightning Strikes and one shot from Keeper were not enough to destroy the barrier. However, the barrier cracked, looking like it would crumble with a single touch.

Kaiser\'s shield was shrouded in Dark Energy and then released cross slash with its dark energy. Even though it did not have its usual swords, it could still use the same move when it had a sword. The cross slash hit the red barrier, and the barrier crumbled.

The Abyssal Skeleton ran toward the Ancient Rank Rock Lizardmen and leaped into the air. It aimed the tip of the shield toward the lizardmen\'s head. The Rock Lizardmen did not try to dodge or use the third barrier as it thrust the spear toward Kaiser\'s skull. The lizardmen chose to attack instead of dodging or defending.

In this situation, Kaiser would lose the exchange because the spear would hit its skull before it could reach the lizardmen. That was the advantage of using a spear.

However, Keeper was ready to back up Kaiser. It shot the normal bone bullet, and it aimed for the spear. The bullet hit the spear and pushed the spear downward.

Kaiser took the chance, spinning in the air; it pushed itself up in the air. Then it kicked the spear to push it further in the air, leaping past the lizardmen. As soon as it landed on the ground, Kaiser turned around and thrust the pointy shield into the lizardmen\'s back thigh. Kaiser did not stop there as it pulled down the shield, tearing apart the lizardmen\'s leg.

The lizardmen swung the spear backward, but Kaiser easily dodged the spear by leaping backward. That was the first successful attack by the group.

"You forget about me, you bastard!" Zowen laughed as she used Lightning Bolt. Lightning Bolt might be a basic spell, but the spell\'s scale was on a whole another level when a magus cast the spell. The lightning spread and engulfed the Ancient Rank Rock Lizardmen.

The Rock Lizardmen fell on one of its knees, holding its spears with its right hand. This time, Keeper\'s beam arrived and hit the lizardmen\'s head. The shot pushed the lizardmen down to the ground with a part of its head missing. However, the Ancient Rank Rock Lizard was still alive.

In the last moment, the last crystal on its back glowed. The Ancient Rank Rock Lizard had three crystals on its back; when they destroyed the red barrier, two crystals were also destroyed.

"Get back! The lizard might self-destruct!" Zowen\'s first thought was that the lizardmen wanted to kill them all along with it.

However, Zowen was wrong with her prediction, as the Rock Lizardmen were shrouded in red clouds. The red cloud formed a sphere in the air and floated in the air. The cloud got bigger and bigger until it reached twenty meters in diameter. Afterward, the red cloud floated to the air, fifty meters in the air.

"Guys! I think you want to destroy that red cloud. Whatever will come out from that red cloud, I will assure you whatever is inside that cloud right now is much stronger than you guys." Tang Shaoyang warned the skeletons and Zowen. Even though he could not see what was inside, he could see the mana that the red cloud exuded. However, the warning was too late as the red cloud burst out into fire and spread out in the air.

As the fire dispersed from the air, the thing behind the red cloud was revealed. It was indeed something they wanted to stop because a dragon had come out from the red cloud. The red dragon had ruby-like scales, and it was fifty meters long. It was the size of an adult Dragon.
