Chapter 154: Burning Skull

The stealthy little mouse Chen Mian easily came to the platform in front of the stone gate along the artificially dug sunken passage by the river.

The platform is a large rock about half a meter above the underground river, with a relatively flat surface and a narrow stone staircase at the edge that extends into the water.

Next to the stone steps there was a hewn hole that seemed to have been used to tie things, and a knot of rotten hemp rope on it. Maybe Gustavo, or the evil mage named Cameron in the back, used to be tethered to a boat here.

There are indeed some pieces of wood near the stone gate, and it can be seen that it was once a log cabin, and the stone gate should have been in a wooden house.

As he got closer, Chen Mian found that the green flame didn't have the slightest temperature, but it could indeed scorch things, at least a little of the wood chips thrown into the lamp were burned into a cloud of black ash.

Chen Mian hid beside him and asked Xiao Hei to take the blessed holy water he had just made to pour the lamp by the stone door, and told it to be more careful.

The dark shadow on the side of the lamp flickered, and a glass bottle containing blessed holy water appeared diagonally in the lamp, and the golden holy water flowed out.

"Zizi~", the flame in the lamp was erratic and suddenly extinguished.

There was a foul smell coming from the lamp, a mixture of rancid and burnt smells, which was quickly diluted by the surrounding air and could not be smelled.

Chen Mian took off the ratskin canopy and walked over to check the lamp, there was a thin layer of stagnant water in it, and the glass bottle was blackened, but he didn't find anything else.

All that was left was the stone door in front of him, Chen Mian pushed hard, not moving at all, "Maybe it's locked with a secret lock?" ”

There was nothing outside the door but the lamp, and she examined it carefully, and it was indeed fixed there, not like it had a mechanism.

Moreover, this place has been occupied by two mages one after another, and it is very unmagical to use ordinary trap locks.

The Arcane Lock is a level 2 spell of the mage class, and Chen Mian will also, a door or chest locked by the Arcane Lock can be opened by a percussion technique, and this opening is not to break the Arcane Lock, but to invalidate it for 10 minutes.

Percussion can be used to open not only doors that have been sealed by magic, but also doors, boxes, and chests that have been locked or stuck by mechanisms.

No matter what kind of situation this stone gate is, it can't stop Chen Mian, and the percussion technique hits the stone door, and after a few seconds, the stone door seems to be rusty, slowly rising, and a lot of dust falls.

Chen Mian looked inside the door, there was a stone room inside, and there was a coffin facing the door, and in front of the coffin sat a skeleton shelf draped in tattered cloth robes.

There was a faint green flame in the dark eye hole, as if he was looking at Chen Mian.

At the same time that Chen Mian saw it, the head of the skeleton shelf flew into the air, the skull swelled more than once, and the raging green flames ignited, enveloping the entire skull.

It found itself that Chen Mian secretly said that it was not good, and watched the skull burning with green flames fly towards the door like a cannonball, and two green flame rays shot out of the eyes of the skull, blocked by the pious shield released by Chen Mian.

She quickly backs away, perceiving its attributes.

"Real name: Gustavo

Race: Flaming Skull

Talents: Resurrection, Fire Ray

Health: 100% mana 100100

Attributes: Strength 1, Constitution 16, Agility 21, Intelligence 19, Perception 10

Skills: Mage's Hand, Magic Missile, Shield, Hazy, Flame Orb, Fireball. ”

This thing is really a flaming skull, and it is a legal opponent with a high mana value and a lot of spell skills.

Chen Mian was busy blocking it, and he didn't look closely, the ray in the eye of the Burning Skull was blocked by the Piety Shield and shot out again, as if it was endless, and this ray did not consume mana, it must be the Burning Skull's talent flame ray.

The Pious Shield also tends to disintegrate under the continuous attack, but after disintegrating, Chen Mian can release a new Pious Shield in an instant, and Chen Mian retreats while defending.

After retreating to the edge of the stone platform, Chen Mian found that the Burning Skull did not leave the stone chamber and chased it outside, and then guessed that the Burning Skull might be to protect the things in this stone chamber and would not go to the platform outside.

However, this platform is not big, and Chen Mian can be attacked by rays wherever he hides.

After familiarizing himself with the strength of the ray, Chen Mian also relied on the protection of the mage's armor to shoot a strong acid arrow, but he didn't expect the speed of the Burning Skull to be too fast, and he shot over the green flames around it tightly, without causing any damage.

The requirements for the strong acid arrow to aim at the head are relatively high, and things like the Burning Skull that float in the air and move very fast, Chen Mian's hit rate is not too high.

And the strong acid arrow can't do instantaneous fire now, and it can't release a few more covering attacks in a row.

This Burning Skull was forged from the head of the mage Gustavo, so it may have retained some of the spells from his lifetime, and against the Burning Skull with a shield, the self-positioning magic missile is not very useful.

Chen Mian tried twice, and sure enough, they were all blocked by the shield technique, but both sides consumed mana.

The Burning Hand's small-area attack that emits cone-shaped flames is also not very effective, the Burning Skull itself has a lot of fire-related spells, and is immune to fire damage, Chen Mian tried it and found that he couldn't do the slightest damage to it.

However, Xiao Hei took the opportunity to smash the blessed holy water to have a little effect, at least it had a little weakening effect on the green flames around the Flame Skull.

Thinking that the thunder and lightning in the legend of the Blue Star had a certain effect of warding off evil spirits, Chen Mian suddenly stretched out his ghost hand, and used the ghost hand to release the electric claw, grabbing the skull of the flame.

The Flame Skull didn't run away, and the lightning arc flickered on its body, but it was still immune.

However, because the power of the Burning Skull was too low to break free from Chen Mian's ghost hand, Xiao Hei took the opportunity to pour blessing holy water, which caused a little damage to it.

At this time, there was a friction sound from the place where the stone gate shrank, and Chen Mian reacted, it was the effect of the percussion technique that was about to pass, and the stone door was about to fall.

Chen Mian simply tugged hard, grabbed the Burning Flame Skull, and stretched it directly into the underground river next to him.

I didn't expect that the river water would not be as damaging to the Burning Skull as blessing the holy water, but its flame rays couldn't be emitted.

But leaving the stone gate made the Burning Skull very restless, and it began to use spells, a transparent palm reaching towards Chen Mian, as if trying to drag her into the water.

Chen Mian had no choice but to withdraw the ghost hand and use the ghost hand to slap the mage's hand away.

The flaming skull flew out of the river, and he was not in a hurry to attack Chen Mian, and flew straight towards the stone gate.

Chen Mian saw that the Burning Skull wanted to return to the stone room, but the stone door was still half closed, and at its speed, it did have a chance to fly back before the stone door closed.

However, Chen Mian didn't want to do what he wanted, and quickly transmitted a voice to Xiao Hei, "Use the transformation stone to block the door." ”

The Flame Skull looked like it could get in, but it hit its head on the stone that suddenly appeared, and was caught by the falling stone door, Chen Mian heard the sound of the skull cracking, which was really a bit miserable.
