Chapter Twenty-Nine: The Ghost

Yaldani and the others did not inquire more about the actions of Ash and the others, but treated them politely. Pen × fun × Pavilion www. biquge。 However, when they arrived in the Tania Mountains and Forests half a month later, they were relieved to see the other holy knights who had come to join them.

This mission, to be honest, if it weren't for the ruins drawn on the map, which had a huge effect on the strength of these people, they would never have come to take on such a mission.

After all, it's not as simple as picking a herb, but it's possible to confront a necromancer.

The power of the necromancer and the horror of the necromancer have been deeply engraved in the hearts of the people of this continent.

Some people may ask, since the Ocean Mercenaries don't care about money, why don't they invite the priests of the temple to do this task together? The reason is simple, if the Holy See knows the news about the ruins, then this ruin will not become the private property of their marine mercenary group, but will become the stuff of the Holy See.

On this continent, there are many people who revere the Holy See, but in the same way, there are also many people who recognize the true face of the Holy See. Especially the mercenaries who often deal with the Holy See, they know that this kind of relic that can increase the strength of the samurai, even if it cannot be of any benefit to the Holy See, for the sake of their own status, they will definitely hold it firmly in the palm of their hands and prevent other forces from using it to develop.

The Ocean Mercenary Group, or Yaldani, because of some connections, is even more jealous of the Holy See, and is unwilling to have anything to do with the Holy See.

Along the way, Yaldani smiled sincerely when he learned that Ash did not have a good impression of the Holy See either.

Bone Three respectfully reported to Ash the tasks he had completed along the way, and said that everyone welcomed their demon mercenary group. The girls sent a lot of food, the children gave some knick-knacks, and some men wanted to join their mercenary group.

Although they only completed some small tasks along the way. But bones are beings who don't need to eat or rest, whether it's sending letters or finding objects. The speed of completion is two or three times faster than that of other mercenaries, and of course it will leave a good impression on the dependent master. In addition, they were dressed in disguise, which made many hot-blooded young people envious, and they shouted to be a reserve army.

If it weren't for Ash's command to keep a low profile, the Demon Mercenary Group would have risen from F-rank to E-rank.

Bone Nine was also proud to show Ash the seeds he had collected, some of them were seeds of plants and fruits purchased with coins, and some of them were herb seeds that he and Bone Eleven had picked up in some dangerous areas, filling five space pockets.

Listening to it faintly, this lively and warm atmosphere really made her like it. Enjoyed it too.

Tania is a vast forest, encompassing more than a dozen mountains, but each of them is not very high. The tallest one is just over 500 meters. It is covered with low shrubs and tall trees, and it looks lush and delightful.

A group of people climbed over one hill and then prepared to rest at the foot of another.

Watching everyone take out the tents and camping props, Ash frowned slightly.

"Yaldani. How are you going to find the dragon flower? ”

"The magicians who depend on the Lord have told us that the dragon flower grows in the cave in the sixth mountain. We should be able to enter the cave in three days. ”

"Hmm."

Ash nodded faintly and entered the tent. Bone One happily said that he wanted to keep vigil with Bone Eight, and the people of the Ocean Mercenary Group were a little embarrassed, but they were still persuaded by Bone One, who was making exaggerated sad movements.

The bones were allowed one by one, and they immediately stepped onto one with great vigor. Posing in a strange pose of pointing a spear at the sky, the corners of the mouth of a group of people from the Ocean Mercenary Group all stiffened, only to feel that there were countless black lines hanging on their heads.

Nothing was said all night. But Ash was keenly aware of the unstable state of the elements in this mountain forest.

It seems that the fire elemental is extremely rare around here, while the dark element, which represents undead magic, is slightly stronger. The more you cross the forest, the clearer you feel.

Ash trusted her mental power very much, and a faint premonition weighed heavily on her heart, and she warned the bones in her heart. Let them be on their watch.

The incident occurred on the night of the third day.

The men of the Ocean Mercenary Regiment were woken up by a scream.

"Enemy attack?!"

A group of men ran out of the tent with their weapons in hand, and all they saw was Ash, Sickness, and the Twelve Undead Knights fighting a group of transparent things.

"The undead. It's the undead! ”

The mercenaries screamed, and although they knew from the beginning that they might run into a necromancer this time, they still had a fluke mentality in case they wouldn't run into it. But what appeared in front of them now was the undead, a ghost of the first rank who was even higher than a skeleton.

These ghosts are resistant to physical attacks, and only things with magical properties can damage them. However, their attack power is not strong at all, at most they have penetrated their bodies, and then they have nightmares for a few days, or they have some illusions.

Ghosts are a creature that often appears in dark places, especially in graveyards, and the mercenaries are not afraid, they are afraid of the necromancer who does not know where to hide.

One by one, while they were fighting their luck to resist and kill the ghost, they were distracted to find the traces of the necromancer, and they seemed very absent-minded.

Ash could understand the fear of necromancers on this continent, but he couldn't agree with it.

The stronger the opponent, the more you can push your potential, and if you already decide that you can't beat the opponent, what use is it to try to?

When they were organizing, they were never educated about the bottom line, and only constant challenges and continuous efforts were the source of their continuous progress. If a person sets a limit for himself, he will never be able to cross that range. Only by breaking your own limits will you discover the vast world outside and know how strong you really are.

Dealing with these ghosts, Ash didn't make a move at all, and the bones that had long been resting and were about to rust rushed forward to carve them up.

With the Light Armor, the bones were covered with divine power all over their bodies, and even if they just stood there, the ghosts radiated by the divine power would immediately dissolve.

However, the bones instead converged the divine power on the armor, and instead condensed the divine power on the spear, poking at the ghosts, as if poking balloons. They are still comparing who pokes accurately and who pokes more.

The ghost that was pierced by the tip of the spear would not dissolve so quickly, but formed a string, like a squid, which was pierced on the spear, and was still showing its teeth and claws, which was really funny.

The people of the Ocean Mercenary Group who came to participate in the mission this time were all elites, and they were just panicked at the beginning. Then it was quick to react. And everything the bones did made them refreshed one by one, and they began to feel that necromancers were not so terrible.

Aldani smiled. In my heart, I felt that my decision to invite Ash to participate in the mission was really wise.

One by one, the ghosts turned into kites on the spears of the bones, and when the mercenaries were in a mess, the bones sucked those ghosts into their own undead fire in unobtrusive corners.

The fire of the dead, that is, the fire of the soul. It is where the bones stand, where their souls are, and where they express their emotions.

Although this ghost is not delicious, it is also a collection of various negative soul fragments, and it still helps their soul promotion a little, just like eating a large kebab. Nibble those ghosts into your mouth.

He imitated them curiously, but he was caught up in the cold by a ghost through his body, and he suddenly shivered.

Bone Nine rubbed his head amusedly. Bone Eleven was a flash of soul fire and thought of an idea. He crumpled a ghost into a ball, then compressed it with divine power, and watched as the ghost was burned crystal clear, and finally turned into a small bead the thickness of a thumb. He threw it into his mouth.

He babbled and made a comment. "Hmm... Not good. ”

"Taste, no."

"Not good, not good."

Seeing that he shook his head, the bones also laughed one by one.

Ash asked Bone Eleven for another ghost bead, and then used his spiritual power to sense it carefully, and then swallowed it, his eyes lit up slightly.

After this ghost bead was washed away by the divine power, the soul inside was much purer, even if she was not like the bones who could directly absorb the soul, she could also absorb the soul ability in it.

It will have a good effect on some people with soul damage.

The other bones found it interesting, but none of them could condense the ghost beads like Bone Eleven. It seems that Bone Eleven has a bit of a talent for manipulating divine power and souls.

The ghosts were numerous, but they couldn't stand being chopped by the bones, and they quickly dissipated.

The night was silent, but the mercenaries advanced more cautiously than before.

"This should be the cave where the dragon flower is."

Standing in the middle of a mountain col, Yardani facing the Ashway.

Ash felt the darker and thicker elements around him, frowned slightly, and said, "The fire dragon flower should grow in the place where the fire elemental gathers... But here..."

Yaldani also frowned, he was a magic swordsman, so he could naturally feel the magic element, and couldn't help but wonder, "No, there are very few fire elements around here, it's almost like nothing." ”

"But what the magician told me was that it should be this cave."

"Why didn't the magician come and pick this dragon flower himself?"

"He said he was in a hurry to do an experiment... Didn't have time to come and explore. ”

Ash shook his head and said, "For a mage, it only takes a few spells to figure out everything in the cave. Why does he still want to release tasks with great fanfare? ”

"This..."

It's not that Yardani didn't have any suspicions, but magicians are weird guys, and there are a lot of strange tasks issued by magicians these years. He also found out that the magician had their map in his hand, so he couldn't wait to come to the door to ask for it.

However, the strange magic fluctuations along the way made him feel more and more uneasy, and coupled with Ash's analysis, he felt that this task was even more strange.

"Anyway, we're already here. Let's go first. ”
