Chapter 97: The Skull Cave

The mayor of the town walked step by step, step by step to Ye Tianxie, and after taking a close look at the brave badge with almost pious eyes, he raised his head and said: "Young brave man with the brave badge, I can represent the entire Guping Town, and ask you to do us a favor...... Rescue a doomed catastrophe? ”

Disaster?

Task!?

"Okay, please, if I have the power to help you." Ye Tianxie took back the scroll back to the city in time and made a gesture of listening.

The mayor's gaze continued to stay on the Brave Badge for a short while, then sighed lightly and said, "My Guping Town used to be not called Guping Town, but Xiaohe Village. A hundred years ago, the Skull Cave in the south of this place suddenly gave birth to a terrifying undead monarch, who left his territory and came here to destroy all living things here. When our ancestors were in despair, a hero, a hero named Gupin, appeared, and at that time, he wore a badge on his chest that was exactly the same as yours......"

The mayor of Guping Town slowly and meticulously told Ye Tianxie about the past that was not far away and had not been forgotten. He recounted

When it comes to the strength of the undead monarch, it tells about the strength of the warrior named Gu Ping, and also tells about the final ending of that day. The hero eventually died, but his name was remembered by the town for generations.

The mayor's voice changed, and suddenly from a hundred years ago, he directly turned to the blood-colored phoenix: "The blood phoenix was born without knowing when and where. Three years ago, we saw it for the first time. The phoenix belongs to fire, and it should like areas of light and heat, but the blood phoenix does not seem to be like this, and the place where it lives is a dark and damp place where the sun and the moon are not seen all year round...... And the Skull Cave is the lair where the Blood Phoenix lives at this time. ”

Ye Tianxie: "!?" ”

"Undead creatures are afraid of fire, but they seem strangely not afraid of the flames of the Blood Phoenix...... Perhaps, the blood flames of the Blood Phoenix were not real flames at all. After the Blood Phoenix inhabited the Skull Cave, it did not conflict with the undead creatures there. It resides in the deepest part of the Skull Cavern at this time. ”

"What do you want me to do?" Ye Tianxie frowned and asked.

"This warrior from Tianchen City brought terrible news when he returned from a serious injury," the mayor of Guping Town gestured to the injured Tianchen City city guard with his gaze: "The fifth layer of the Skull Cave, a hundred years after the original undead monarch died, the yin qi there has caused a new undead monarch to begin to form ......"

Ye Tianxie: "......"

"When the day when the Undead Monarch completes his growth, he will be able to survive from the darkness, and at that time, we in Guping Town will inevitably suffer an irresistible catastrophe...... Young Brave, can you use your courage and strength to destroy this terrible Undead Monarch, you have the Badge of Bravery, you must be the same as the hero Gu Ping back then, a hero sent by God to save us in times of danger! ”

"Ding...... The mayor of Guping Town entrusts you to defeat the undead monarch on the fifth layer of the Skull Cave, mission attributes: hidden unique, task duration: half a year, after half a year, the undead monarch will grow and mature, and the task will automatically fail. Rewards: Unknown, the people of Guping are always looking forward to the elimination of the Undead Monarch, so the longer the quest is completed, the fewer rewards will be obtained. Mission Failure Penalty: -10 opinion of all the people of Guping Town. Acceptable? ”

Defeat the Undead Sovereign!?

This......

What a joke!

Undead Sovereign, that's a full level of one hundred, and the grade is at least above the Heavenly Peerless Death Super Boss!

I'm a level 14 player who doesn't even have a class...... It is estimated that the undead monarch farted enough to die thousands of eight hundred times.

Ye Tianxie didn't choose to accept it, but said indifferently: "Mayor Town, I really want to help you, but, my current level is only fourteen, and it is impossible for me to be the opponent of the Undead Sovereign." ”

"Nope! Young brave, you can do it, and if you can get the Brave Badge, you must have enough ability to do it. To Ye Tianxie's surprise, the mayor who heard him report his rank was still full of trust, and he explained: "The current undead monarch is not a real undead monarch, but is in an unformed infancy, and his abilities in all aspects are completely immature...... As far as I know, the current level of the Undead Monarch will not exceed level 20, and you, with the Badge of Bravery, will definitely be able to defeat him and eliminate a catastrophe that is about to befall my Guping Town. But if it drags on for a long time, with the growth rate of the Undead Sovereign, it only takes half a year for him to grow to level 100, and his grade will also reach the invincible Heavenly Peer level...... At that time, it was too late. ”

The village chief's explanation made Ye Tianxie's heart pound, less than level 20...... If you can defeat the level 20 lord boss Amethyst Battle Tiger at level 10, what reason is there not to challenge this newly born undead monarch. However, this quest is clearly a hidden and unique quest - a rare quest that is the most difficult to appear, much harder to appear than the hidden quest and the only quest!

And its difficulty is arguably the most of all mission types, but the rewards are undoubtedly the most generous.

"Well, in that case, I'll go and destroy the Undead Monarch." Ye Tianxie looked relieved and said confidently.

"Ding, you accepted the mission 'Commissioned by the Mayor of Guping Town - Kill the Undead Monarch on the Fifth Layer of the Skull Cave'."

Ye Tianxie's sudden burst of self-confidence infected the mayor of Guping Town, and a comfortable smile appeared on his old face, "Thank you, you have made me see great hope." At this moment, I suddenly felt that the pressure I had been under for a long time was suddenly much lighter. The Skull Cavern is just south of here, and you can see the pitch-black earth and the pitch-black cave entrance all the way south. Before that, if you need any help, feel free to tell me and our people here will be of great help to you. ”

Soon, Ye Tianxie knew what this "greatest help" was......

30 vials of advanced mana that can be used at level 10 with an instantaneous return of 400 health and a cooldown of 5 seconds, and 30 bottles of advanced magic potions that can be used at level 10 with an instantaneous return of 400 mana and a cooldown of 5 seconds. Looking at the sixty extra small medicine bottles in his backpack, and then looking at the townspeople in front of him who collectively went out to see him go to the skull cave, with their faces full of enthusiasm, eagerness and adoration, Ye Tianxie was a little eager to cry without tears.

It's too picky...... It's so picky......

Wouldn't the task rewards given be the same...... Ye Tianxie thought very depressedly.

The mountain roads here are not easy to walk, and there is hardly a flat place to find. The more he moved forward, the vegetation on the ground was also sparse, and after Ye Tianxie walked forward for an hour, the existence of vegetation on the ground was basically invisible, and the occasional few trees were also in a state of malaise that would wither at any time.

Actually, this is perfectly normal. Where undead creatures can be derived, and even undead monarchs can be born, there must be a huge amount of yin energy condensed here, and another name for yin qi is the breath of the dead, death and life are natural enemies, can ruthlessly devour life, weak life can be easily taken away from existence. And because the yin qi here is too heavy, there are no traces of birds and beasts around, let alone people.

The Skull Cave was not far from Guping Village, and after an hour's journey, Ye Tianxie had already stopped in a dark and terrifying land, and looked at the black cave in front of him, which was obviously horizontal, but it made people feel as if they were leading to the abyss.

Faintly, a cold wind with a yin qi that made people's teeth shudder slowly blew towards the face, with a disgusting rotten breath.

Ye Tianxie stood in place and was silent for a while, and finally walked in.

Skull caverns have been around for a long time, and the exact origin and reason for their formation are unknown. As Ye Tianxie stepped in, the surroundings became quieter and quieter, and the light became darker and darker, and the smell of carrion became more and more intense, and Ye Tianxie frowned.

When the eye adjusts to the darkness here, what is felt is not an empty blackness, but a faint blue light that fills the surroundings...... Eerie blue. This cyan light is not the light of the sun that overflows from the outside world, but the faint phosphorescence released by the rotting corpse. With this faint phosphorescent light, Ye Tianxie could barely see the range five or six meters away in front of him.

The ground was lifeless black, but unexpectedly flat, and it was quiet, too quiet, not a single sound.

Skull Cavern, Level 1.

And since this cave is a cave cave, it is naturally indispensable to represent the undead system of skeletons.

Crunch......

There was finally a sound in the silent space, and anyone who heard this voice would instinctively think that it was a sound that belonged to the interlacing of bones, Ye Tian turned his head violently, and looked at the black shadow in the darkness in front of him that seemed to be drilled up from under the ground, and the exploration technique was turned on.

Skeleton: Level 17, 680 health. The breath of death, the undead monster derived from the dead bones of people, will instinctively repel all kinds of life forms. Although he has no real consciousness, he has an incomparably hard body.

Talents: Undead Body: Automatically regenerates health in darkness or undead breath, and is immune to 70% death attacks.

Skill: Skeleton Hand: Wielding the two hands of the white bones of Nasen Sensen, tearing the target, with a 20% chance of dealing 150% damage.

"Crunch ......"

The sound of staggered bones sounded chaotically from Ye Tianxie's front, back, left, and right, and the originally quiet cave was suddenly completely filled with this terrifying sound. Ye Tianxie's heart, which was originally slightly tense, was put down at this time...... Generally speaking, the farther away from the main city, the higher the level of the monster. And the first layer of this skull cave is a level 17 monster...... Although there are many of them, monsters of this level cannot pose a threat to him at all.

"Crunch crunch ......"

"Crunch Crunch ......" G
