Ethan neatly changed Beretta's magazine, then took out the spare short arrows and loaded them into the bracers one by one. Keep your eyes on the left and right, trying to find the enemy who is hiding.

The firelight that had been created with fireballs and flaming arrows had gradually faded away, and even the torches that had been used were extinguished during the battle, and could only be illuminated by the glow sticks that Ethan had scattered everywhere.

"Light the torches. ”

Although the torch is extinguished, it is not damaged, and it can still be used if it is re-lit.

The glowstick can be used for a long time, but the illumination range is too small, and the light is not bright enough.

Marta and Eliza's movements were fast, and the environment around them was much brighter when the torches were lit again, and Ethan noticed the details that had been overlooked in the darkness before.

"Stand back!"

The men immediately retreated and gathered together, with Ethan standing a few in front of him, reinserting Beretta back into his holster, his sword gripping the hilt in both hands.

Almost as soon as everyone re-established their defensive postures, the corpses that had fallen to the ground began to make strange noises, as if something had exploded, and one after another miserable white skeletons came out of the corpses.

"Skeletons?"

The zombies who had been killed by having their heads broken were transformed back into skeleton soldiers, and their skulls were restored to their intact appearance, holding bone weapons that emitted a miserable white light and a more intense death aura in their hands, and these weapons were of different types, all of which could be seen with swords, guns, and bows.

"If these skeleton soldiers know how to cooperate, I'm afraid it's even more troublesome than those zombies. ”

Ethan raised his hand again to release a fireball, and the bracer of his right hand can release the fireball five times, after which Ethan needs to provide additional energy to recharge or wait for it to recover slowly.

Used once before, this is the second shot.

The effect was still excellent, and the few skeletons who had just stood up were directly blown to pieces, and some of the small fragments were burned to ashes by the erupting flames, even if they wanted to put them back together.

"The defense is not as good as the previous zombies. ”

Raising his sword to block an arrow that was fired, Ethan looked at the arrow that bounced to the ground, it was also a bone arrow, but the hardness was very amazing, and the one he just now was not so much a bounce as a cut, but the arrow just flew to the side and was not cut off.

"That's the hardness!"

There was no time to continue to observe, and a few skeletons who were close to him had already rushed forward, the bone swords in their hands slashing at Ethan from all angles.

"I really know how to cooperate. ”

The most troublesome thing happened, and Ethan found that since entering this cave, it seemed as if he didn't want anything to happen, and that often happened. I don't know if my luck has suddenly deteriorated, or if I have awakened some strange attributes.

There were too many weapons attacking at once, Ethan used the ice shield in the bracer of his left hand to protect the left half of his body, and the sword in his right hand slashed fiercely, smashing the two bone long swords that attacked him in the wrong direction, and also knocked a spear with a sharp angle, making this killing move hidden in many attacks in vain, just sliding over his light armor, with a piercing sound.

It is not Ethan's style to be passively beaten, and after defending against this wave of offensives, he immediately counterattacked. After firing a burst of ice arrows that had just been filled in his left hand, five short arrows erupted together to produce an even stronger chill, freezing several of the nearest skeleton soldiers and blocking their movements, Ethan summoned the ice shield again, this time not for defense, but for attack.

The Ice Shield is an ice shield formed by the condensation of cold air, which can deal physical damage. However, this shield attack will have a large impact on the ice shield and will destroy this ice shield, so no one has ever used it like this.

Ethan didn't care about this, the ice shield would burst out the frozen gas contained in it at the moment of destruction, which was the effect of buying time for the user, and this time it was also used by Ethan as a means of attack.

The ripples of frost with the cold wind flickered, and several of the besieging skeletons were completely frozen into ice, and Ethan smashed the sides of his sword into pieces one by one.

Three times five divided by two, Ethan solved the remaining skeleton soldiers one by one, although the skeleton soldiers are much more powerful than that group of zombies, but Ethan is easier to deal with, because he killed a lot of skeleton soldiers in the dark world, this group of skeleton soldiers did not show anything special, but it was easier to destroy.

When Helena and the others eliminated the skeleton soldiers in front of him, Ethan began to organize his equipment.

"You're strong. ”

Helena spent a lot of energy and physical strength in this continuous battle, and stood in place and gasped for a while before slowly recovering.

Seeing that Ethan didn't look strange at all, some envy rose in his heart.

"You're also strong. ”

Ethan politely complimented back, in fact, Helena's strength can only be regarded as good, in the eyes of most ordinary people, she may be considered a strong person, but in the eyes of Ethan, who is used to seeing a really strong person, it is nothing at all. But you can't talk like this in a chat, just open your mouth and say that you are weak and innocent will only offend people.

Helena was obviously self-aware, and instead of being complacent about Ethan's praise, she shook her head helplessly, and turned her head to check on her condition with her two men.

In the heat of battle, no one can guarantee that there will be any wounds, and if they are not detected in time, it is likely to cause irreparable consequences.

If it weren't for the difference between men and women, Ethan would even take the initiative to help check it, so it's better for them to do it themselves.

Ethan took out a flashlight from his backpack, then carefully examined each corpse, feeling the state of death lingering on it, and then completely smashed several skeletons that didn't seem to have been completely killed, and then returned to Helena and the others.

"I took a general look, these should be the adventurers who landed on this island before, they were eroded by the energy of this island and turned into the same kind of zombies as before, and then after being knocked down by us, the energy in their bodies did not dissipate, so they turned into skeletons and regained their mobility, and launched an attack on us. ”

"For in the eyes of these dead creatures, we living people are as conspicuous as the fire in the night. What is certain is that something like this will happen if we move forward...... After all, we don't know how many adventurers have been here before. ”

Originally, he thought that the enemy only had the same boatload of people who had landed on the island before, but recalling that the previous battle compared the number of corpses, it was obviously much more than the number of people who had landed on the island before.

Either there were more adventurers who landed on the island before, and they were also eroded by the island's rich death energy and turned into undead creatures.

Either that, or the island itself has the ability to create undead creatures.

Either way, the situation ahead is fraught with danger.

"And what about your decision?"

"What?"

Unexpectedly, Helena would suddenly range herself, and Ethan was stunned for a moment.

"I'm going to keep going. ”

Now what attracted his attention was no longer the magic stone that was very likely to be a death attribute, but the spatial structure of this place was unreasonable, and what he wanted to find was a possible spatial energy magic stone, or a cloud of spatial energy.

Helena heard Ethan's answer, shook her lips and nodded firmly: "I will also move on." After speaking, he also glanced at Ethan, and saw that he had experienced two battles in succession, but there were no scars and his physical strength was still very strong, and he strengthened his belief.

Ethan wanted to persuade him, but after seeing the other party's determined eyes, he swallowed back what he wanted to say, and just nodded to indicate that he knew.

Turning his head, Ethan used a flashlight to light the way, the situation and danger ahead were beyond his previous expectations, he was not ready to hide these good things now, and took out all the good things he could use.

Helena didn't ask him what it was, let alone why he hadn't taken it out before. Who wouldn't leave some hole cards to survive on this sea? Not to mention Ethan, they also have hole cards on their bodies that they don't use, and they won't tell a stranger they just come into contact with.

It's just that when Ethan can't see it, Helena will touch her side of the waist, there is a long wound there, although it has been treated, there is still blood oozing out.

Just as he was about to reprocess it, suddenly Ethan in front of him stopped, and handed over a few vials.

"Powdered sprinkles on wounds disinfect them, and pastry on wounds stops bleeding. ”

Helena was stunned, but Marta took it as soon as she saw this, and then directly helped Helena deal with the wound.

"Thank you. ”

"You're welcome, at least we're comrades in the same camp now. ”

Ethan shook his head, these were all gestures, he didn't want to win favor. But if you continue to bleed like this, it won't do you any good.

After being treated again, Helena's wound finally stopped bleeding, and several people continued to move deeper into the cavern.

After passing through the open area, they entered a slightly narrower passage.

This time they didn't walk long in the passage, and soon came to another open space. And there is a light source in this cave, although the white light is uncomfortable, it is better than the darkness.

Ethan looked up and saw that the white light was floating in the middle of this space, it was a stone about the size of a fist, and it was undoubtedly the magic stone that was a specialty of this world.

"This is a rich energy of death...... Sure enough, it's a death attribute magic stone!"

In addition to this, Ethan also noticed that there was another energy fluctuation at the top of the cave that he was more familiar with.

"Space-time energy!"
