Chapter 19: The Soul of the Dead
On the other side of the dark canyon, there is still a gray wilderness, and countless undead warriors are wandering aimlessly on the field. These undead warriors carried all kinds of rusty weapons in their hands, and there were large traces of flame burning on their torn armor, and one of their faces was also burned by the flames, and their scorched faces were covered with terrifying cracks, and yellow pus leaked from the cracked enemies.
"Ding~!"
System Prompt: You found the map [Burning Lands].
If nothing else, I'm supposed to be the first player to be here, so it's up to me to do the job, hehe!
I looked around, and my eyes lit up, and I saw a small black wooden house at the foot of the hill on the left, which was probably some years old, and there was a lot of green moss growing on the roof and slab walls.
When I got closer, the cabin was even more dilapidated than I had imagined, the wood at the base of the wall had been soaked by years of rain and had rotted to the point that it had even grown a row of small gray mushrooms on it, and the rotten wooden door was hidden, so that I even suspected that if I pushed the wooden door open, the small wooden house would fall apart in an instant.
"Anyone?" I knocked lightly on the door.
After waiting for a long time and no one responded, I pushed open the wooden door and walked in, and by the light that came through the door, I saw an old monk sitting on the wooden bed opposite, who was sitting on the wooden bed opposite, and the old monk was fiddling with the rosary in his hand, reciting unknown scriptures, and seemed indifferent to my arrival.
After a long time, the old monk finally opened his eyes slowly, his two shriveled lips moved with difficulty, and he made a rough voice like sawwood: "How many years have passed, and I finally see a living person again." He glanced at the emblem of Chaoyang City on my shoulder and asked, "Are you an adventurer from Chaoyang City?" ”
"Yes, is there anything I can do to help you?" I asked in standard character language.
The old monk said slowly: "Countless years ago, there was a great war here, the cruel war buried countless fresh lives, countless dead soldiers no one collected the corpses, exploded the corpse wilderness, because of excessive resentment their souls did not want to return to heaven, over time it became like this, in order to surpass the souls of these dead, I have been here day and night chanting for hundreds of years, but the result is still unsuccessful, brave adventurer, can you agree to one of my requests?" ”
I was horrified, "You don't want me to inherit your mantle, do you?" I don't have the potential for that. ”
The old monk waved his hand weakly, "The facts have proved that my method will not work, so I want to change the method now, as long as their bodies are completely destroyed, so that their souls have nowhere to stay, they will naturally disperse, brave adventurer, this matter is left to you." ”
"Ding~!"
System prompt: Do you accept the quest [Transcendent Revenant]?
Isn't it just for a quest that Lang spends so much time listening to NPCs tell stories here? There was no reason not to accept it, and I decisively chose to accept the task.
"Ding~!"
System Prompt: You accept the quest [Super Revenant] (current task difficulty: 320), quest content: accept the request of the unknown old monk, and exceed the souls of 500 deceased.
This task is actually not very difficult.,It's just that the number of monsters required is too much.,The task is a bit cumbersome.,But I was originally going to kill monsters and level up.,Now that I can do the task while killing monsters.,Why not?
【Scorching Corpse】(Normal Monster)Qi and Blood: 1500Attack: 180-200Defense: 95Level: 18Skill: Heavy Attack, Corpse Explosion......
Cold sweat is oozing on my forehead, is there any mistake, an undead monster with an attack power of 200, a defense power of 95, and a level 18 has such a strong attribute? With 200 points of attack power and level 3 level suppression, my knight's body will be unbearable, and now I finally understand why a simple monster killing task can be as difficult as 320.
I couldn't do anything for a while in the face of the scorching corpse soldiers all over the ground, because with my current attack power, I would definitely not be able to break the defense, and one attack of these corpse soldiers was estimated to be enough to kill half of my qi and blood in seconds. In the face of the disparity in strength, the root of what to operate is floating clouds.
Suddenly, I remembered that I haven't had time to see the equipment of the Valley Giant's explosion, so let's see what good equipment the Valley Giant gave me first, and the things that the silver-level boss burst out must not be too bad.
Inside the package, a blue-gray cuirass and a glittering ring lay quietly inside, occupying the two compartments of the package.
I first took out the blue-gray breastplate, and it was cold in my hand, and the mysterious power spread all over my palm, and my spirit couldn't help but be lifted, and after seeing the attributes of the equipment, I couldn't help but gasp for it.
【Rock Breastplate】(Silver Weapon-Armor) Defense: 65Strength: 10 BodyLì: 9Level: 15......
This is the first piece of silver equipment I've ever acquired in the game, and the Fallen Cuirass I'm wearing now is nothing short of scum, and with this Breastplate for protection, I'm sure even these Scorching Corpses with 200 attack power won't be able to break through my defenses lightly.
Then, with great excitement, I took out another piece of equipment given by the boss - the shining ring, and with a flick of my hand, the attributes of the equipment appeared in front of me, and I was so happy that I almost fainted.
【Bluestone Ring】(Silver Weapon)Attack: 15Strength: 10BodyLì: 10Level: 15......
Probably because there are still very few silver-level bosses who have been successfully pushed down by players at this stage of the game, the Valley Golem actually generously gave me two silver weapons.
And I never imagined that the first piece of jewelry equipment I got in the game would be a silver weapon, as we all know, the explosion rate of jewelry equipment in the game is lower than that of weapons, and the value of this ring in the game is almost immeasurable, if it is sold on the market, it will definitely attract those rich second generations in the game to buy it, and finally sell it for a sky-high price.
However, although I am a migrant worker, I will definitely not do such a thing as selling my best equipment to make money.
When these two pieces of silver were worn on my body, my attributes immediately changed dramatically, and both my attack power and defense power instantly increased a lot.
ID: Longhu Level: 15Title: Trainee KnightQi Blood: 1484 Mana: 414 Attack: 131-157 Defense: 246 Prestige: 105 Luck Value: 0 With my current attributes, it is no problem to deal with those scorched corpse soldiers, I quickly locked onto the nearest scorched corpse soldier with my spear and rushed over, and when I staggered over, the spear in my hand stabbed into the monster's chest with a thorn.
"Boom!"
With a bang, the monster's decaying breastplate was almost pierced, and a damage figure flew up from the monster's head.
“237!”
A knight can still play such a high attack when he crosses the level to kill monsters, I am not dissatisfied with anything, knights are not mages after all, combat dwarves such as a profession with high attack power growth, you should never expect a knight to kill monsters in three or two clicks.
Attacked, the Scorching Corpse let out a high-pitched howl, swinging mechanically to find my location. I was amused to see the speed at which the monster turned, and the speed at which this scorching corpse soldier seemed to turn even slower than the skeleton swordsman on the other side of the valley, what other threat could this pose to a player like me, who is known for his quick reflexes?
I sent five or six attacks in a row, but only one of the Burning Corps' counterattacks succeeded in hitting me, and under the protection of the Rock Breastplate, I only lost less than 100 points of qi and blood, which I could replenish by automatically recovering health, and even saving potions.
"Poof!" With a bang, the spear finally pierced through the chest of the first Burner Soldier, and the body of the Burner Soldier "Bang!" I hurriedly crossed the shield to block, but the broken bones and rotten flesh still splashed me, and my blood dropped 312 points, fortunately I reacted quickly, otherwise I would have almost been blown up stupidly.
Due to the relatively high level, a Burning Corpse Soldier gave me 546 points of experience, which is almost double the experience of the previous level 15 skeleton swordsmen, and the experience reward for skipping the level and killing monsters is really rich.
The high amount of monster-killing experience coupled with the unknown mission rewards has made my enthusiasm for killing monsters unprecedentedly high, and one person and one gun are rushing back and forth on the Burning Wasteland, and one by one the scorching corpse soldiers keep blowing themselves up and hanging up, and my experience bar is soaring.
Suddenly, a strange feeling flashed in my heart, this feeling makes people feel very uncomfortable, how to say? It's like being stared at by a poisonous snake.
I immediately stopped killing monsters and searched around, but I didn't find anything unusual, but the sixth sense of the human being told me that there were at least one or more pairs of thief eyes staring at me in the void.
What to do, how to get them to show up?
I thought as I walked towards a burner soldier in front of me, and by the time I got to the monster, I already had an idea.
I continued to concentrate on the scorching corpses, and they looked the same as before, and no one else should be able to tell what I was feeling.
As another Scorched Corpse Detonated itself, I quickly charged the next Scorching Soldier with my spear in my hand, stabbing him in the chest.
At this moment, a flash of light flashed around me, and another scorching corpse soldier refreshed out, and I immediately fell into a situation of one and two.
While fighting with the two monsters, I carefully observed the wind and grass around me. Suddenly, out of the corner of my eye, I saw the dead grass on the ground bending slightly in the direction of the back left. I turned sharply, facing the danger of being attacked by two monsters at the same time, and the spear in my hand slammed into the void in front of me like a dragon.
"it!"
There was an exclamation in the void, and then a thief was shot in the chest, and a figure appeared from the void, with the prefix of the War Emperor's Hall on the door of the person's head. Almost at the same time, several shallow footprints appeared in succession in the dead grass ahead.
"I deliberately chose this place with a lot of grass, and I've been waiting for you for a long time." I took a sharp step back, and the spear swept, and several thieves had already accelerated, but they couldn't stop, and they were all hit, and I shot them out of the void.
