Chapter Twenty-Four: The Withered Earth

That's it, the protagonist succubus and his party went back to the campsite. I saw Tiffelle standing by the campfire again.

Compared with Yulia, Tiffelle, a dark elf who grew up in the city of dark elves, understands nature more. She looked at the three men suspiciously. The main character, the succubus, can also notice that she sniffs their scent with her nose.

"Fortunately, the master has no flaws, otherwise it will ......" the protagonist succubus secretly praised in his heart. But on the surface, it is still quiet. After talking to Angel, Yulia, and Tiffelle, they officially changed shifts with Tiffel and went back to sleep in their tents.

"......" looked at the backs of the protagonists, the succubus and Angel, and Tivele didn't say anything. Although she didn't find any evidence, she still felt that something was wrong. But she's not the kind of person who would be vexatious. So in the end it didn't say anything. It's just that I secretly thought in my heart:

"Look at Wright a little more in the future, and don't let him make mistakes -- no, I should say, don't give him a chance to make mistakes." Thinking so in her heart, Angel's figure melted into the darkness again......

And just like that, the next day, the atmosphere of the team became very strange. Angel kept an eye on Yulia all the way. It's like killing her with your eyes. At the same time, Tiffelle is constantly observing the main character, the succubus. As if trying to put him in a cage woven by his sight.

"Hey, hey, something seems to have happened last night, uncle." Xiao Bai took two steps and walked to the front next to the uncle with missing ears, and whispered.

"I know without you saying it." Uncle Missing Ears replied quietly.

"What do you know?" When Xiaobai heard him say this, he immediately became very excited and asked vigorously.

"Between men and women, that's generally the kind of thing." Uncle Missing Ears replied.

"Eh......" small white elongated sound. It seems that he is not very satisfied with the answer of the uncle who lacks ears.

β€œβ€¦β€¦ I originally thought that uncle, you would know a little more...... "Xiaobai", it turns out that you are nothing more than that. The cousin looked at the uncle who lacked ears. But he was completely ignored by the uncle - after that, the uncle with the missing ears stopped. His expression became solemn, too.

"Why don't you speak, uncle, are you ashamed of what I said, and want to apologize to me? If that's the case, I won't refuse, hahaha-"

"-Shut up." The uncle's short word calmed Xiaobai down: "Be careful." Don't you feel that something is wrong? ”

"What's wrong?" Xiaobai felt very strange: "I feel good." Or that the good couldn't be better. ”

"That's where the big thing is wrong." The protagonist succubus walked over and said in a deep voice: "Xiaobai, do you feel very excited and comfortable now, and you have a feeling of 'this is my territory', like a fish in water?" ”

"yes, Captain, how do you know?" Xiaobai asked: "Although it is a little exaggerated, I do think so." ”

"Isn't this feeling stronger the further you go?" The main character, the succubus, then asked.

"Like...... Right. I didn't pay much attention. Xiaobai recalled for a moment, and then replied.

"That's how it should be." Tivele, who is next to the main character, the succubus, replies, "I've been paying attention. The further he went, the more Xiaobai was beaten. ”

"Hey-" Xiaobai was rightly upset. As is customary, however, his protests were immediately ignored.

The succubus then asks Tiffelle, "Are you sure that's the case?" ”

"Sure, he's usually underwhelmed, but I promise he's underwhelmed now more than usual." Tiffelle replied in a calm and determined voice.

"That's fine." The main character, the succubus and the uncle, who lacks ears, glanced at each other and nodded.

"What the hell is going on, Captain?" Xiaobai looked at them very cautiously. Ignoring the protest, he said that he owed the beating, and then asked.

"It's necromancy." The main character, the succubus, replied, "Xiaobai." Except for you, all of us don't feel uncomfortable. The further forward you go, the stronger this uncomfortable feeling becomes. So, I think there's some kind of negative energy going on ahead. Moreover, it also explains the lack of life around us. ”

"Big brother, Angel feels very uncomfortable......" Angel pitifully pulled the sleeve of the protagonist succubus. stared at him.

"And what now, Captain?" Uncle Missing Ears asked.

"Now ......" the protagonist Succubus frowned, "We've been walking for so long, we're almost going to enter the Dlocky city-state." It is definitely not possible to make a U-turn at this time. Since you can't turn back, then move forward quickly, no matter what the thing that exudes negative energy is. Finish him off. Then keep going! ”

"As expected." Uncle Missing Ears nodded and smiled, seemingly pleased with the decision of the main character, the succubus.

"If it's an undead artifact, it's worth my benefit! Could it be that my protagonist's aura is about to turn on? Xiaobai also seemed very excited and began to daydream unrealistically. Naturally, the others once again ignored him.

"If it's a necromancer, a lich, or some other undead who threatens the peace of the world, I'll clean them up with all the time!" Angel looked excited, too.

"No problem." Tiffelle replied.

"I don't care." Yulia replied. However, looking at her excited face, it seems that she is not interested in necromancy.

"Okay, that's it, let's go." Seeing that no one objected, the main character, the succubus, finally made a decision - and so, the righteous adventurers moved on. It's just that the actions have become more cautious. The speed is also slower. Always be prepared to deal with enemies that may arise.

After walking like this for a while, the breath of negative energy became stronger and stronger. In addition to Xiaobai, the other members also felt more and more uncomfortable. Luckily, there are plenty of careers in the team. Whether it's Angel's purification technique, the protagonist succubus's protective necromancy, or Yulia's negative energy resistance potion, they can all play a good role. So there is still no problem with the health of the team.

Moving on, the effects of negative energy become more pronounced. It wasn't just the animals that were impressed, the other trees and vegetation began to wither, the land cracked, and the water of the rivers became foul-smelling. In this case, except for Xiao Bai of the Necromantic Department, everyone else felt very unhappy. However, except for Xiaobai, the vigilance of others has also increased a lot.

Uncle Missing Ears, as an elven ranger, should be the most unhappy person in the team. Although the Golden Elves are not completely savage like the Wood Elves, their love for nature is quite high.

Therefore, for someone to use necromancy to destroy nature, Uncle Missing Ears will never tolerate it.

However, at the same time, the uncle is also the most cautious of all:

"From the time we felt something was wrong to now, it was a few days away. I don't know what it is that can affect such a large area. As he walked, the uncle said to the others, "It doesn't matter who it is, or what it is." It's definitely strong. Be careful, everybody. ”

"Hmm." The main character, the succubus, who walked behind the uncle, nodded and mumbled in response.

"Huh...... Will it be a legendary necromancer? Xiaobai asked further back.

"Probably, a legendary necromancer...... Most of them have been transformed into undead. I don't know if it's a lich or a demigod lich. Or something else......" Yulia said in the tone of a professional scholar, "I really want to study it." ”

"Yes." After that, the uncle with missing ears, who was at the forefront, stopped here: "So, here comes your research materials." ”

"What's coming?" Yulia didn't react for a momentβ€”and then she heard a tooth-souring "Kerakala" sound. After that, a large group of Bai Sensen's bones crawled out of the ground. Attach their arms, straighten their heads, and hold their swords, looking at the protagonist Succubus and his party.

"Skeleton...... It's not just any skeleton. The main character, the succubus, looked at the huge number of skulls in Bai Sensen, and couldn't help but comment - yes, in general, human bones cannot maintain a standing posture on their own. Normal humans need muscles, while normal skeletons need to add some auxiliary metal struts to the normal human skeletons, or add additional bones to modify the skeletons for a certain amount of dΓΉ.

These skeletons are different, though. They didn't add any additional devices, instead wrapped ominous black smoke around some of the necessary bone joints, and these clouds of smoke held their bodies together-

"This ...... This kind of technique is generally only used on more advanced skeleton creations. Who is so boring that they would put such a large amount of money on ordinary skeleton soldiers?! Beside the main character, the succubus, Yulia couldn't help but complain loudly - these skeletons knew at a glance that they had been summoned by magic and had a lifespan of between a month and twelve hours. It's as extravagant as using gold leaf as toilet paper.

"It's clear that the opponent we're about to face is such a boring person." The protagonist Succubus replied by drawing two staffs, and then casting a spell, and two fireballs were thrown straight at the skeletons. At the same time, the rest of the Righteous Adventure Regiment also made a gesture of attack or defense. -- The battle began. (To be continued......)
