The players' negligence resulted in many of the skeletons at the front not receiving timely support, infuriating some of the skeletons scattered by the Blood Corpse who wanted to call the military police to deal with these traitors.

When they turned around, they found that the military police that bastard [ Ginseng Rooster ] had gathered were also watching the show, and even had a better view because they could ride the skeleton horse!

Damn it, what the hell are you guys doing here?!

As the "temporary deafness" debuff gradually dissipated, the players finally heard the poor skeletons' cries for help.

Clearly, the fact that they could hear this while the debuff hadn't completely worn off means that the skeletons on the front lines had been begging and pleading.

Noticing that there were nominal companions who needed cover, the players finally managed to pull themselves out of the movie and begin their operation.

Meanwhile, on the distant battlefield, with Sailesi exerting his strength, Rosalind's train-like body was truly unable to break free.

At this moment, Sailesi was using all his strength, and even relaxed the restrictions on the [ Giant Arms ] to some extent.

Rosalind writhed wildly, her body shifting between a soft, smooth, and physically challenging state.

However, no matter how much she struggled, Sailesi's four arms had transformed into self-locking iron clamps, which continued to tighten and increase their force over time.

The insect's shell Shattered, its muscles are tearing, and its bones are gradually reaching their limit.

Finally, at a certain moment, a tooth-grinding tearing sound, the sound of bones twisting and cracking, and the monster's shrill howl came at the same time.

The players in the military camp, who were already locked in battle with the Blood Corpse, were once again stunned and turned to look into the distance.

With only his upper body remaining, Sailesi had already snapped Rosalind's giant worm body in two right in the middle!

Sailesi won!

He won a battle he was destined to lose, but... what was the price?

Under that unreasonable twisting, Rosalind's body was like dough torn in half, with obvious jagged marks at the break, and one could feel the pain just by looking at it.

At this moment, the translucent skeletal giant resembled a savage who had defeated a ferocious beast, its four arms supporting Rosalind's broken body in pairs, emitting a roar that was both a cathartic release and a threatening threat:

"War!"

The roar reached the military camp, and countless skeletal soldiers instantly responded with a roar as if injected with chicken blood, turning around and throwing themselves into the battlefield with even greater strength.

Many players couldn't help but sigh upon seeing this: [ Nether Crossing ] has given a collective buff to the skeletons on the main camp.

And that is indeed the case.

[ Giant Arms ] actually has the ability to buff the entire group:

Ordinary skeletons would be energized after hearing his battle cry, while skeletons belonging to the Giant Arms Legion would almost go berserk upon hearing the roar.

So when that battle cry echoed throughout the battlefield, Sailesi already realized the true cost.

In the instant before reaching his limit, Sailesi briefly released the seal on the [ Giant Arms ], gaining immense strength to break Rosalind, a bizarre creature with both carapace and vertebrae.

However, this is not a good thing, at least not for him.

In just a moment, the power of the [ Giant Arms ] surged into his body like a tidal wave.

Along with this came countless intertwined and chaotic memories.

As memories flood back, Sailesi's self-perception is once again shattered.

In fact, he had already noticed this when Sailesi last defeated the consciousness of [ Giant Arms ] and regained control of his body.

I am no longer human, but one of these bizarre skeletal beings.

Skeletons do not have brains; their bodies consist of only two parts: one part is the Psionic Energy in their eyes that indicates survival, and the other part is pure skeleton and a mixture of crystal clusters.

Where exactly do the memories of this creature reside?

After losing his arms, Sailesi found the answer—they resided within his bones.

This is the reason why he experienced self-confusion after acquiring the [ Giant Arms ].

Sailesi lost both arms, and therefore lost some of his memories of his early life and the Theocracy.

[ Giant Arms ] only has four arms left, so his consciousness is very weak, and his memory is limited to combat and skills.

Sailesi knew that if he lost more bodies, he would lose his memories as well.

So what happens when your body is missing a certain amount?

Or rather, were I still myself then?

Sailesi was not afraid of death, but he was instinctively afraid of the replacement of his own personality. He was afraid that a soul that identified itself as Sailesi would do things in his own name that were not in his own style.

Nothing is more terrifying than watching your own mind gradually Alienation.

The power release he just unleashed was not because Sailesi was so eager for victory, but because Rosalind had just broken the lumbar vertebrae of his Incarnation.

This put Sailesi into a state of stress instantly, which is why he made up his mind to awaken the [ Giant Arms ] to gain some extra power.

Rosalind had now won, and it was time for him to pay his debt.

The power of the [ Giant Arms ] was like a drug, while his consciousness was like an awakened infant, already making a racket in Sailesi's ear.

Another person who realized this was [ Divine Wings ], who was hiding in the center of the military camp.

Hearing that long-lost battle cry and feeling the power that strengthened the soldiers, [ Divine Wings ] realized that [ Nether Crossing ] had used a power he didn't originally possess.

Was it a breakthrough? The Psionic Energy fire in the skeletal senator's eyes suddenly intensified.

Okay, no matter who you are, don't get off him!

If you are a " Giant Arms," then hold on! If you are a " Nether Crossing," then hold on too!

Just when [ Divine Wings ] thought victory was in its grasp, the two pieces of Rosalind that had been twitching and flailing since being torn apart suddenly drooped down, seemingly having completely given up the struggle.

However, the next moment, countless enormous mouths disguised as patterns opened instantly on both sides of the giant worm's body, and even the headless part of the body obeyed Rosalind's commands.

All the giant mouths went into battle mode at this moment, ready to tear Sailesi to pieces.

"Ha, that trick won't work on me."

As Rosalind gazed upon the hundreds and thousands of spiraling maws, Sailesi's deep voice entered her mind.

However, within hundreds and thousands of enormous mouths, the thousands upon thousands of sharp teeth rubbed and collided against each other, ultimately converging into a low, sneer:

"Yeah?"

As soon as the words were spoken, all the giant mouths began to make the same movement: not eating, not biting, but contracting and spitting.

What is it spitting out?

Of course, it's the powerful acid within Rosalind's body that contains the power to devour!
