Chapter 181: Skeletons
The moonlight is sprinkled, and the further southeast you go, the colder the weather becomes, the less vegetation there is, and the greater the wind and sand.
The cracks in the ground are getting bigger and bigger, and occasionally some grass is seen, which is also withered and yellow.
Angela reached a small hill and sat down in the gap between a large rock, waiting quietly.
Getting rid of the old dryad, Angela was thinking about whether to go back next, and then decided not to go back, she couldn't go back.
Offended the five giants in one go, presumably at this moment, Genting Mountain is facing serious surveillance.
It's okay not to go back, because Angela has had a lot of scruples because of her previous performance.
Once you go back, you will be exposed to your own strength not rising but falling, I am afraid it will be a catastrophe.
So, the most important thing now is to restore the strength and then strengthen it.
I didn't say anything about recovering my strength, so I could only spend time day by day and slowly wait for my strength to recover.
And during this time, she must not be discovered by those spies, especially the mysterious businessman, which is even more vigilant.
For the bounty of the Big Five, presumably the mysterious merchant will definitely expose her once he knows her whereabouts.
Of course, if she pays more price, the mysterious merchant must also be willing to help her keep her secret, but Angela is not willing, at least before she is cornered, because that means sharing the knowledge of the white devil, and it is estimated that the mysterious merchant is not willing to share the knowledge of the white devil with Angela.
And Angela doesn't believe in the mystery merchant's discipline, he can help Angela keep secrets, but that doesn't mean he won't kill Angela.
So, in order to keep her whereabouts, Angela chose to go southeast.
It's a desert, it's sparsely populated, and the Pharaoh who rules it is a tyrant in his tyranny, arrogant, and arrogant.
Whether it's the tentacles of the Big Five or the mysterious merchants, they are all pitifully weak here.
Of course, Angela also tried to avoid contact with the Pharaoh, who also coveted the knowledge of the White Devil.
So, Angela will try to avoid rivers and oases.
These days, Angela is out day and night.
If it is too hot during the day, it will consume a lot of stamina and water.
It's too cold at night, but Angela is not afraid of the cold, although such a cold weather makes her miserable, but the body that is too resistant is like a thermos, so that the cold will not take away her body temperature too much.
She had planned to go for the night, but the weather was not as good as she wanted, and the change in weather forced her to stop.
Her instincts told her that far away, there was an unusual danger approaching.
The sky, the moonlight sprinkled by the bright moon, swayed, the wind demon became more rampant, the sand and dust in the sky advanced like a wall, and in the distance, a funnel made of yellow sand twisted towards this side.
Boom Boom ......
Everything came so fast that it was like a sea of voices approaching this way.
The yellow sand whistled through the sky, and large swaths of the parched earth were lifted, and dense wounds like spider webs were pierced through them.
Angela curled up in a ball, her instincts and vast knowledge saving her.
Despite her extreme physical strength, if she is in perfect condition, she can still use her magic powers, and she can even try her hand at crossing tornadoes.
But in this state now, forget it, the chance of death is too great.
The moonlight was obscured, the surroundings were pitch black, and the earth trembled with the roar of the mountains and seas......
When it was dawn, a hand reached out and grabbed the sandy ground hard, and Angela climbed to the top of the hill as the back of her hand swelled.
Patting off the yellow sand on his body and looking into the distance, a huge "wound" crossed from the sky to here.
Around, the ground shakes.
Angela sighed, these annoying things have not been touched in the past few days, presumably, she should be above some ancient battlefield now.
Not far from Angela, the ground exploded, yellow sand and dirt splattered, and a group of skeletons grabbed rusty weapons and ran towards Angela.
"So, why didn't the battlefield be cleaned up, bastard."
Angela scolded, and suddenly pulled out her bright long sword and greeted it.
The two swords intertwined, and with a crisp sound, a rusty broken blade flew up, and the head of a skeleton was cut off, and the whole body fell apart in an instant.
Dingdingding......
A series of sparks flashed, and broken bones and broken weapons flew all over the sky.
A dozen skeletons, dressed in rags, some with helmets and some without them, as light as a delphinium and as swift as lightning, rushed out of the smoke, and this was not over, it seemed that there was more in the smoke.
Their strength is indeed weak, only 70% of a healthy adult man. Defense is indeed very low, their bones are more fragile than ordinary bones, just hit them in the head with a wooden stick is the green soul flame inside can kill them, but it is not as easy to deal with as people think.
They are light, no more than 35 pounds at most, which causes them to be very fast and run on flat ground, comparable to galloping horses.
They were accustomed to using light weapons, such as daggers or one-handed swords, and even sharpened wood, sharpened stones, and sharp bones.
They are much smarter than they thought and know how to protect their heads.
Coupled with their agility, hitting them in the head is no easier than hitting a flying arrow.
Don't expect one farmer to defeat three of them, even though the farmer is much stronger than that.
Not to mention the farmer, even if a soldier can defeat such a guy one-on-one, it is a fluke.
Fortunately, their strength and rudimentary weapons limited their attack power, and they were often unable to break through their defenses in the face of iron armor or wooden shields, so they were so vulnerable to the army.
In addition, they are only found in the desert and surrounding areas.
And even in the surrounding areas, most of them appear in places like ancient battlefields.
So, the impact on humans is not very great.
But at the moment, the impact on Angela is great.
There were explosions all around, and clumps of yellow sand rose up, and along with the bursting ground, skeletons appeared one after another.
Damn, there are too many of them!
Angela raised her arms in front of her and charged down, ignoring the blades in front of her, knocked over five or six skeletons before reaching the edge of the hill, leaping down and sliding down the hill.
There was a commotion behind her, as if something in her bag was broken, Angela's face darkened, but she didn't care about other movements, she slid down the hill and ran away.
The skeleton runs so fast and tireless that if you don't get out of their sight in time and get entangled in them, you can't run away.
Boom Boom ......
Explosions kept coming from her side, Angela stopped suddenly, her face was as black as ink, threw the luggage on her back on the ground, drew her sword, turned around, and met the group of skeletons.
The further you run, the more dense the explosions become, it seems that this is originally a very large ancient battlefield, and the further you run, the more skeletons you will encounter.
So, Angela now has only one choice, kill the skeletons, and then go back the way she came.
Luck, it's really bad.
