Chapter 97: The Cave of Bones (VI)

"Des is on top, how did you fucking bastards find me?!" The ghost with the appearance of a human male subconsciously exclaimed to the god of death it believed in, and with a surprised expression on its translucent face, it floated in the air about half a meter above the ground, staring at the team that had found it in unison for a moment.

Obviously, this ghostly undead monster is the quest boss of the Bone Cave. Its soul fire is not directly exposed to its eye sockets like the physical undead monsters, and the distorted undead can still recall the magical knowledge they have learned in life, but they can't figure out how the adventurers led by Urs are aware of their existence.

In particular, the "disenchantment spell" released from the magic scroll actually lifted a few "skeleton traps" that it had arranged and hidden on the ground in advance, making it as ridiculous as a fool who gave up the right to attack the first attack in vain.

Urs's prescient traversal advantage frustrated his ruse.

And the next development naturally belongs to the battle until one side is eliminated, and it is impossible to have some friendly meeting.

"Evil, eat me with an axe!" At some point, Koto had switched his hammer into one of the throwing axes hanging from his waist, and when he saw the ghost mage in the cave, he yelled and sent the axe whirling towards his smoky figure.

This time, the mid-range long-range throwing attack, the front sight in the dwarf's hand did not go wrong, but the spinning axe went straight through the ghost's translucent body floating off the ground, and soon reverberated with a clatter.

The unknown ghost mage boss had heard of a +3 enchanted flying axe called "Azure Holy Axe" before his death, and the undead creatures hit by its attack would be instantly overtaken once they failed the exemption test, and they who originally thought that they didn't know the 6-ring spell "protective magic weapon" and didn't have time to dodge immediately were about to be finished.

However, it obviously overestimated the equipment configuration of the team members, and completely expected the worst based on its own weaknesses, but it did not expect that the dwarven warrior's axe was nothing more than a tabula rasa weapon without any enchantment level, and Castaño's virtual monsters, including ghosts, were always immune to tabula rasa weapons below the +1 enchantment level.

The ghost mage boss in the Cave of Bones looked at Koto with disdain, and said that one of the challengers he met today was fortunately a fool, and quickly shook his fingers in the virtual form to try to cast his best 3-ring necromantic spell "manipulating the dead corpse", and then saw Miss Drow Poet in the young team simply let go of the scimitar in her deputy, and immediately pulled a small dagger out of the short sheath at her waist and threw it at herself.

The little thing was a thank you gift from the Shaved Blade Adventure Band's Sawa Thief Sawa Boots to the Thorns Squad when he was in Lumberwood, along with a +1 enchantment level Switchback Throwing Dagger.

Against enchantment-level weapons, the ghostly silhouette of the ethereal figure can gain a small bonus bonus during the evasion check when dodging, but is no longer directly immune to this attack, and may fail to cast a spell if hit.

THE BOSS TEMPLATE FOR THE BOSS CREATURE MADE THE GHOST MAGE'S CAST SPEED MUCH FASTER THAN IT HAD WHEN HE TRIED TO ADVANCE TO THE PALE LORD. Before the dagger flew in, it had already completed its spell first, transmitting the evil magical negative energy to a nearby profane area that had not been purified by the "disenchantment" through the action of raising its fingers a little, and in the blink of an eye, it saw that the white bones that could be regarded as casting materials all over the place were summoned by its spell to four large skeletons more than two hundred centimeters tall in one breath, and then its body folded in the air with the trajectory of the dagger flight and received a few points of enchantment physical damage.

"Manipulating the Dead" is cast in an area cursed by "Blasphemy", awakening double the number of undead minions.

Transformed by spells, the four large skeletons that rise up from the cavern have long clawed arms similar to those of ghouls like the bone racks they destroyed earlier. The +1 dagger quickly flew back into the hands of the Jaq in mid-air in a small circle under the guidance of magical power, and the unknown ghost mage boss immediately ordered the four skeletons that had just been evoked by its spell to kill the team at the entrance of the cavern clearing through the spiritual link.

Koto and Yafinch failed to interrupt the ghostmage's spell casting in the first round of ranged raids.

The battle quickly moved on to the second round. Urs clenched the hilt of the cursed blade with both hands, and immediately commanded his team to respond: "Koto and Stone Fist protect Thea and Jajacchi, Yaja cooperates with me to interfere with this ghost spell, Thea takes the opportunity to cast a magic attack, and Gloryden is free to move according to the situation while keeping the light on!" ”

As the words fell, his eyes turned red, and he activated today's second expert-level rage in this dungeon, and his murderous gaze directly ignored the four skeletal monsters approaching from the side of the team and went straight to the ghost mage who was the boss of the dungeon.

Thanks to the experience of commanding many team battles in PvP battlefields in his previous life, the young man speaks at an astonishing speed, but the words are very clear, and the various tactical requirements are not only good for communicating with his companions in advance, but also avoiding the ambiguous parts of the semantics as much as possible.

So the adventurers of the Thorn Squad immediately acted according to the command of the barbarian captain.

In addition to being enhanced with blasphemy, the four large skeletons evoked by the ghost mage boss also come with elite-level creature templates due to the game's setting. Their white skeletons are much harder and thicker than ordinary small skeletons, but they are no longer a mobile experience pool, and the boss battle link of the Bone Cave is also such a strategic difficulty that hinders the players who team up early in the game to challenge the wilderness group here.

After all, the opponent's spell casting speed is really fast, and he has a mage profession specializing in the necromantic school.

Uls knew that he had to find a way to prevent the ghost mage from using his spell casting speed advantage to summon a massive sea of skeletons to flood everyone, so he handed over the two female members of the team with spell-casting abilities to the protection of the dwarven warrior and the orc warrior monk, temporarily adjusted the old thief with limited frontal combat ability into a wandering support role, and then relied on the characteristic of the barbarian class called fast movement, picked up the black giant sword in his hand and rushed to the boss's body to slash a fan-shaped horizontal slash.

The Cursed Blade has a +3 enchantment level, so there is no embarrassment of being directly immune to attacks by a ghost monster, even if the opponent has a boss-level template that symbolizes the identity of the boss.

The arc of the blade scraping through the air forced the ghost mage to take the initiative to postpone the next spell he was about to cast, and hurriedly raised his floating body in the air a little higher to avoid the blow swept by Urs's black giant sword, and then condescendingly hung in the air looking down at the young man on the ground, and thought to himself proudly: "Pathetic brute! How can your greatsword reach my flight altitude? ”

After thinking about it, it raised its head again and glanced at the position not far from its side, and saw that the four large skeletons it had summoned had already exchanged hands with the orc warrior monk and the dwarven warrior, and the wolf-eared priest girl who happened to find it was standing near that direction and lifted the emblem bracelet wrapped around her left wrist to aim at herself, and her lips were just closed at the moment.

In the next second, a white halo suddenly appeared, descending from above its head like thunder, hitting its head.
