Chapter 96: The Cave of Bones (V)

But this little regret doesn't matter. Anyway, the increase in level symbolizes different degrees of strengthening, and getting stronger is always a good thing, not to mention that the battle just now not only made him increase his character level, but also shortened the length of his leveling process from level 17 to level 18.

Without working part-time at all, a Barbarian with a total level of 18 will receive the last 1 additional pro point before career progression, which can only be used for Berserk or weapon proficiency feats, and at level 19, in addition to 1 general probe point per 3 levels, the "Damage Reduction" trait will be unlocked, and then at level 20, they will receive 1 new stat point for every 5 levels, and at level 20, they will also be eligible for class advancement.

Taking advantage of the joy of upgrading, the young man imagined the path of advancement in his life for a while, as well as the various upgrade rewards for the last 3 levels before the 20-level career advancement, and then came back to his senses and led the team to continue to explore in depth.

The Cave of Bones dungeon process is generally divided into two phases, the first stage of the enemy is composed of a large number of skeleton monsters piled up in the tunnel, which have been successfully cleared by the adventurers of the Thorn Squad, or can be said to be forcefully killed.

The second phase of the battle in the game is for players to fight against the necromancer revenant of the advanced Pale Lord, commonly known as the boss battle.

The location of the boss fight is located in the deepest part of the entire dungeon area. Urs knew in his heart that there would be no new monsters in this wider and wider cave tunnel under his feet until he and his companions reached the boss point, and there would be no forks in the road, but for the sake of safety, he still arranged for everyone to change back to the previous formation, and let Grohledon walk back to the front row of the team with the glowing stone to be responsible for exploring the way.

The group walked at an overall pace of vigilance for about five minutes, and finally found that the vision ahead suddenly opened up under the illumination of the luminous stone, revealing a small square in the cavern in everyone's eyes.

The clearing in the cavern was like a naturally formed treasure cave, except that instead of the treasure and gold coins of the dungeon, the carpet covered the ground was a scattered white bone, which looked like it could rise from the ground and become one "reborn" skeleton monster at any time under the magic transformation of some necromancer.

"The fire is on top, and the wisdom of Xiao Meng warns me that the owner of this place must have bad intentions towards us, although I have found nothing but the bones and slag of the ground." Koto alertly raised the tower shield tied to his left arm, and looked around a few times with his eyes turned left and right, looking at the cavern open space that everyone had arrived at their feet and couldn't help but grumble.

Once the dwarven warrior opens the conversation, he may have a tendency to chatter, but his perception attribute is not as low as intelligence, not to mention that the rest of the team also involuntarily feels a strange and oppressive atmosphere in front of him at this time, so no one has spoken out to refute his ridiculous speculation for a while.

With the adventure experience accumulated in the past, Gloleden frowned slightly and thought for a long time, then took out the small bottle of holy water that Xia had assigned him from his leather waist bag, unscrewed the wooden cork, and splashed the remaining small half bottle of liquid in his hand forward, and suddenly saw with the others present that the pure holy water of the church had not yet splashed on the ground, as if it had been forcibly evaporated by some force in mid-air, and turned into a few wisps of dark smoke and disappeared.

"This place is cursed......" the old thief blinked, and immediately concluded from it, "perhaps blasphemy." ”

His past experiences had given him a little ability to discern magic, leading him to make such judgments.

The so-called "blasphemy" is a 2-ring magic that can be performed by the priest of the evil camp, just like the antagonistic relationship between the Blackguard and the Paladin, in contrast to the 2-ring magic "Reverence" of the good priest, which can make an area affected by the effect of the magic be filled with negative energy magic, and the undead creatures who enter the area will receive a +1 bonus bonus on all action checks, and the living with normal health will in turn suffer a -1 depreciation penalty on all action checks.

If it is combined with the common spell "Magic Constancy Technique" of the 5 rings of the mage, the area of influence of the blasphemy can even gradually form a long-term evil domain under the accumulation of time, just like the several cathedrals established by the Sogo Church in the territory of the Golden Que Ying Empire, which belong to the artificial sanctuary with the effect of "Constant Reverence".

Although the Necromancer Boss of the Cave of Bones has a very mixed class structure, there is no part-time priest, whether that guy is alive or dead.

According to some of the game information known from his previous life, Urs can still remember the process of the strategy for these dungeon areas that belong to the early stage of the game, but he doesn't care much about the details of the backstory.

Therefore, when he knew that Gloriden's judgment was correct, he immediately took out one of the "Disenchantment" magic scrolls that he had obtained from the mage leader Carlos Loew of the Orichalcum Adventure Group in Logging Village from the dimensional bag he was carrying, and handed it to the old thief beside him, and at the same time commanded Miss Drow Poet in the team and said, "Yaque, see through the invisible. ”

Stealth is a 2-ring spell of prophecy that allows the caster to spot invisible creatures and objects within vision.

Miss Poet's dark purple eyes blinked calmly under the hood of her black robe, and then she used her drow sign language as a dark elf to complete the spell, and raised her head to glance left to right in the entire cavern clearing in front of her, and then the scimitar in her left hand raised her hand in one of them with her hoarse voice: "Over there." ”

The streamlined curved blade followed the direction the tip of the knife pointed, and on the surface there was only transparent air and scattered white bones on the ground, but Urs believed that Miss Poet would not be bored enough to play tricks on herself in this place at this time, and immediately instructed Glorydon to use the magic scroll in his hand to the prescription position she had prompted.

The young man's serious bias in the intelligence attribute is only 9 points, although it does not affect the memory of the player in his mind who belongs to the previous life, but it is at least 10 points away from the magic scroll's use of the condition of intelligence, which happens to be short of the last 1 point of immortality.

Groledon obeyed Urs's instructions, and without hesitation, he aimed the scroll in his hand in the direction prompted by Yaque, and the 3-ring protective spell "Dismantling" stored in the scroll immediately turned into invisible magical energy and flew out towards the side of the cave, quickly dispelling a part of the negative energy of blasphemy in the air in that place......

and the "invisibility spell" that a certain ghost mage applied to himself, causing its translucent floating form to be immediately exposed to everyone's eyes on the spot with the hazy outline of a male human.
