Although this world is very similar to the earth in many places, there are actually quite a few differences.

In addition to the obvious differences such as magic and the corresponding alchemy, more differences are reflected in the rules of some worldly realms.

For example, if the corpses of this world realm are directly exposed to the wilderness without any treatment, after a period of time, these corpses will not directly and completely decay, but will be 'refreshed' and disappear like in the game.

But in fact, the so-called 'refresh' does not mean that the corpse has really disappeared out of thin air, but has been sent to the undead plane by the rules of the worldly realm.

The corpse will go through a tenacity test directly after reaching the plane full of death.

The rate of decay of the identified corpse will be greatly slowed, resulting in the formation of unconscious necromantic monsters such as walking corpses and zombies.

Some corpses with extremely strong physical fitness will also directly turn into high-level necromancers such as mummies and black warriors.

The vast majority of corpses that fail to pass the strength test will be directly eroded by the breath of death, and will be wiped out in just a few seconds, leaving only a skeleton, and then the skeleton will produce a magic core in its skull, and use this energy source to make this skeleton have basic mobility and become the lowest undead class - skeleton.

It is precisely for their family and friends not to fall to this point after death, even if there is no shortage of land as a cemetery in this world, except for some wealthy nobles who have enough money to build mausoleums and hire undertakers, other commoners cannot guarantee that the corpse will not be dug out of the soil by those beasts with a keen sense of smell.

By the way, the popular funeral rite for the orcs is the sky burial. This kind of funeral is similar to the traditional funeral of the Mongolian and Tibetan minorities in the Earth, Celestial Empire, and the Maasai in eastern Africa, in which the body of the deceased is slightly disposed of in some way. Then let the birds and beasts devour it, thinking that in this way they can return to the embrace of Mother Earth. The funeral of the elves is more similar to an ordinary burial, except that it is generally buried around the moon tree, so that the moon tree can obtain the nutrients of the corpse while protecting the corpse from being taken away by the rules of the world......

Back to the point, whether it is a zombie or a walking corpse, even a zombie whose body has mostly festered still has the hope of advancing to become a high-level undead such as a black knight or even a death knight, while a skeleton has no possibility of such advancement - because it is gone, no matter how it advances, it is still just a skeleton.

But that doesn't mean that the skeletons are all weak (although it's true that more than ninety percent of the skeletons are scum under level 5...... After trying his best to survive countless years, the core of the magic element was transformed from the invisible into the tangible. Then it changes from a solid state to an ionic state (similar to a burning flame). This refers to the transformation from the core of the magic element to the soul fire), and the skeleton can reach the peak of the skeleton race, the strongest existence in the skeleton - the skeleton king!

Humans are no strangers to skeleton kings, not to mention the last era, in the history of this era. Humans also have a record of fighting the Skeleton King, and have won several times.

Of course, this does not mean that the Skeleton King is weak, in fact, almost every victory that humans have won against the Skeleton King has been made of people.

As one necromancer put it, the blood it takes for a human to defeat a skeleton king can even stain the Rhine (the largest river in the Eastern Plains, twice as long as the long river) without the intervention of the archmage.

Each of the skeleton king's bones has been tempered and hardened to be stronger than steel. Ordinary weapons and magic do not deal effective damage to it; The soul fire it condensed made it no longer as muddy as other skeletons, like a machine that didn't know how to work; Over the years, it has made it extremely accomplished in magic and white-knuckle combat, and it can be called all-round, and there are no obvious shortcomings and weaknesses. …,

If you want to defeat the Skeleton King with a level 28 crusade and a +2 level modifier, the only way to do this is to ask the Grand Mage to do it. Or let more than thirty high-level mages bombard it with non-stop saturation - and only if it still stands still for them to bombard......

If you want to use the army to carry out crowd tactics, the Skeleton King, who commands the skeleton clan, will let you see what real crowd tactics are!

Theoretically, even ten Sivi bundled together would not be enough for the Skeleton King to fight with one hand. But that's just theoretical, more importantly, the current Skeleton King has not only lost half of his strength because he has ventured through the spatial crack, but even the ribs that ordinary magic weapons can hardly injure are now covered with fine cracks, and it looks like it is not comfortable in the spatial cracks......

It is probably precisely because of this reason that it did not rush to the front line and directly crush the city guards, but used the Sea of Skulls to clean up these characters who were just small shrimp level to it, and it was precisely because of this that it gave those city guards a chance to breathe, and waited for Xiwei to come.

Sivi's eloquence is not good, but those city guards don't want to listen to any splendid articles, after losing most of their strength, seeing that their family is ruined, and they are going to die here, anyone will feel that there is darkness in front of them, and they can't feel anything other than despair.

But Sivi's assurances had rekindled their extinguished fighting spirit - there was nothing left to lose anyway, so what if they had to fight for their lives?

Probably with this mentality, those city guards used up the little bit of their own strength that was left after their worst, just like a hard reef dam, blocking the surging skull tide from the outside, creating a chance for Xiwei to face the skeleton king!

However, although this opportunity is not fleeting, those city guards really won't last long, and the key to everything is whether Xiwei can take down the Skeleton King before their defensive circle is broken by the skeletons!

Sivi's reaction was quick, and he poured himself a bottle of magic potion that was actually useless because of the repulsive effect, and the radiant flame in his hand rose. In the first shot, Xiwei was already planning to use Radiance to break the decisive victory. Because any strategy to play now is all false, all you want is to output with all your might!

The Skeleton King was not slow to react either. After discovering that his guards had been breached, a group of humans surrounded him. And when there was a violent fluctuation of magic power in the hand of the human who was at the beginning, he already realized that now was not the time to let the other party attack as he wanted.

I saw the burly body of the Skeleton King turn into a white shadow, and appeared in front of Xiwei in an instant with agility that was inconsistent with its huge body, raised a bone arm comparable to a mace, and smashed it down on Xiwei who couldn't react!

Almost subconsciously, Sivi broke through the barrier of magic power, and it was this habit he developed in the dungeon that saved his life.

The magic barrier shattered under its blow, and Xiwei took advantage of the opponent's attack to be slowed down by the magic barrier, and flashed to the side, finally avoiding the fate of being hit directly by that attack.

Be that as it may, the huge hand bones after hitting the ground. The solid masonry floor was immediately smashed into a basketball-sized pit. At the edge of the pit, cracks appeared like spider webs. Even the scattered rubble contained a lot of force, and it made Xiwei's body ache faintly.

However, he still stabilized his mind, and instead of extinguishing the radiant flame in his hand, it was his violent will that made the golden flame begin to jump, increasing the activation of the magic power in disguise. …,

The Skeleton King misses a blow and doesn't chase after him. Instead, a strange magic emanated from the hollow eyes.

Sivi immediately realized that it was a curse, and he didn't dare to take it hard, so he could only stumble back a few steps, because the radiant flames in his hands immediately shrank a lot with this move.

Seeing that Sivi was afraid of this attack, the Skeleton King immediately guessed that he did not have the ability to restrain the curse, so he began to inflict various curses on him even more.

Malicious gaze, ghostly vision, skinned candles, clown dice...... All kinds of curses that Sivi recognized or couldn't recognize took turns, and even he couldn't dodge them all, and in the process of dodging, he was hit by two curses, thankfully the two curses were Pain Deepening and the Dead Emblem. The former can double the pain and damage of Sivi when he is injured, and the latter is that Sivi will have a bonus to the damage when he is hit by all the undead, which is not an instant magic, and thanks to this, now as long as Sivi is rubbed by the other party again, this copy can almost be regarded as out......

Fortunately, Xiwei is not without gains.

"Magic doesn't use more than three rings. Melee attacks were only attempted once, and they were still in the case of mutual probing. Sivi stepped away for a moment, taking a breath as he sorted out the information in his head: "This is different from the habits of ordinary skeleton kings......

Because the skeleton kings are slowly promoted from the low-level skeletons, most of the skeletons are melee at the beginning, even if they are skeleton mages, their magic power is at the bottom of the same level of monsters, and even some hand-to-hand monsters are not as good, so they often send a few one-two ring magic and then directly pick up the stick to draw people...... Although the Skeleton King will slowly gain spellcasting abilities in the advancement, and he can also have several spell-like abilities, once he fights, the Skeleton King still prefers to fight in close combat.

"If it weren't for the fact that this guy likes to be unconventional," the radiant flame in Xiwei's hand burned again, and a look of surprise bloomed in his eyes: "Does that mean that its injuries are barely even melee combat......

Unlike many monsters, skeletons possess a strong life force - they are not 'dead' until their magic core is destroyed - but they have little ability to heal themselves. If you don't rely on skull restoration, if you want to grow a bone well by natural restoration, it is better to directly find a crippled person of the same kind to remove its bones and put them on yourself......

The Skeleton King naturally knows how to repair skeletons, and it also has a spell-like ability, 'Skeleton Force', which can repair all skeletons in an area, but the problem is that this ability doesn't do much for itself, for the simple reason that it can't do much.

If a game character has tens of thousands of HP, what is the use of a skill that can only restore five or six HP at a time?

And those skeleton mages who can use the skeleton repair technique are also being held out by the city guards at the moment, and there is no way to repair their boss.

Sivi's magic power is running out, but he has begun to attack the Skeleton Monarch with some magic that is not very powerful, and even has no effect on the Skeleton Monarch in terms of magic damage alone, but has a lot of impact.

Since magic damage is ineffective. Then simply use the force of the impact to expand its wound. Anyway, the Skeleton Sovereign's body is different from a normal skeleton, and there is no fear that it will break out of the encirclement and switch bodies with a normal skeleton - doing so will only make it die faster!

Finally. After being overshadowed by Sivi's sandstone bomb for the third time, the Skeleton King finally became enraged and began to attack Sivi with both hands as fast as a mosquito. …,

Sivi gritted his teeth and tried his best to block the opponent's attack, as long as he could survive this formation, victory was close at hand, and he could even see the bone chips on the opponent's palm that were slowly peeling off!

However, just as the Skeleton Sovereign's palm began to crumble, one of its claws broke through Sivi's magical barrier and slashed through Sivi's abdomen.

The Skeleton Monarch's own powerful attacks are combined with the effects of the curses, Pain Amplification and the Emblem of the Dead. Suddenly made Xiwei's eyes dark. Even consciousness seems to drift a little away.

Time seemed to slow down at this moment, and in a trance, he could see that the city guards not far away had used their few strengths to desperately open up a little space for him to fight, and they were shouting hoarsely, as if they wanted to let their lives shine the last bit of brilliance. He did not hesitate to squeeze his life force and cast magic, and he could even see the green tendons on their foreheads and necks that had erupted from the long spell casting and intense activity.

The reason why they will work so hard to this extent is because they trust him.

Trust Sivi, who was originally unknown, but led them out of the skeleton encirclement and promised them that he would defeat the Skeleton Monarch? Edric.

“…… Really, I didn't call it that before the crossing. ”

Sivi felt the fishy sweetness coming from his mouth, and while gasping for breath, he muttered with a wry smile.

He bit his tongue hard just now, and it was not small. He almost bit his tongue off, but because of this, his trance-like consciousness was refocused.

He dragged his scarred body, barely dodging the Skeleton Sovereign's pursuit, and the radiant flames that had been extinguished in the blow rose again.

Although theoretically speaking, even if all those city guards are dead this time, they will be refreshed the next time they enter the dungeon, but I don't know what Lu Dao is for. In his heart, Xiwei couldn't treat these city guards who had followed him desperately across the Sea of Skulls as ordinary NPCs, but really regarded them as comrades in bloody battles, he could trust and entrust them behind his back, and they could also trust and entrust their future to him.

This pure relationship of trust between them made Sivi feel happy, and in order to live up to them, he decided to do his best to get the last blow.

It wasn't that Radiant Flame was no longer strong enough for him to perform this move, all he could do was blunt the Radiant Flame, such as the mana activated with the Active Aether, and then blast all his power towards the Skeleton King!

Magical blunt strikes? Radiant sublimation!

As if sensing something was wrong, the Skeleton Monarch opened his jaw and gathered all the magic power in his body, activating his spell-like ability, which was called Death Judgment, a black pillar of light equivalent to the magic of the four rings.

I saw that the two rays of gold and black energy collided impartially, and then there was a violent explosion!

-- Near the middle of the city --

Using the moon branch as a crutch, Sivi limped towards the camp with a somewhat vague memory.

The magic just now was actually very unfavorable to Sivi, but just when the other party's death judgment pushed Sivi back in front of Sivi with the magic power that had been sublimated by the Radiant Flame, its body suddenly collapsed.

Without the support of the body, the Death Judgment suddenly lost its accuracy, and was bombarded back by Sivi in one fell swoop, destroying the opponent's already unreliable skull, completely dispersing its soul fire, and successfully annihilating the Skeleton King.

His mission has been completed, although he still retains a Void Emperor's Fist as a hole card, but in the face of the demon lord, he really doesn't have the confidence to be able to kill with one blow, so he still decided to go back to the camp directly to hand in the task, and after receiving the reward, he will return to the real world. …,

Although the reward bonus for completing a few more tasks is very tempting, people know that they know how bad their body has become.

However, I don't know if it was because of his bad luck or other reasons, he was a little lost, and he actually broke into the scene of the Demon Lord's slaughter.

The severed limbs, stumps, arms, blood and fat all over the ground, and even some heads with frightened faces, like a hellish scene, made Sivi shiver all over.

The Demon Lord not far away looked at the devastated Sivi with a playful expression on his face, and easily tore a sword-wielding city guard in half, and his large intestine and some other internal organs slid out of his chest and abdomen, falling to the ground. The sight of some little devils immediately rushing up to grab these fresh organs also made Xi Wei know why there were so many corpses on the ground, but none of them had intact internal organs.

Later, Sivi suddenly realized that the camp he was looking for was on the roof of a nearby house. Because he has been holding the Moon Branch, his mana has also recovered a lot, and if he uses a traction anchor against the camp at this distance, combined with levitation and repulsion, he should be able to escape back there before the demon lord reacts, and then he can directly claim the reward and leave the dungeon.

But when his eyes saw the skull on the ground and the pair of little boys and girls he had seen in the vicinity before, a rush of blood and anger rushed to his head.

Without a little fear and confusion, five complete version of the elemental crystals appeared in his hand, and then the magic power in his whole body was drained again, but this was not enough, after the magic power was used up, Xiwei could clearly feel that his life force was also passing quickly.

If he could see his own appearance, Sivi would see that the hair on the back of his head was rapidly turning white.

"Thank you for your care, this is a return gift." Sivi looked at the Demon Lord with an indifferent expression, while the expression on the other party's face changed drastically, like fear, and like anger, but this no longer meant anything to Sivi: "Fist of the Void Emperor." ”

Then, the power of the void descended. (Your support is my biggest motivation.) )
