CHAPTER XXXV
The corpse mountain, the sea of bones, the blood pool, the black swamp, and the entire place of death are showing the group another style of death that is different from nature.
Occasionally, one or two tower-shaped structures can be seen, indicating that there are still intelligent dead creatures here, either humans, or elves, or whatever, at least in life.
But more often than not, crypts, or nests made of white bone and black wood, are the same as the habits of these dead creatures before they died, and they have certain special effects.
The black mist that permeated the air was spit out by some huge hollow spiral bone spurs that seemed to be piercing out of the earth.
Bone spurs take root in the earth like plants, extracting dead matter from the soil and misting it, forming a barrier to the sun, allowing all dead creatures to move freely under its cover.
It is not a good idea to shuttle in such terrain, the negative energy and matter that fill the air not only infect and corrode all living beings, but also affect the emotions and wisdom of all living beings, even if they are hiding in the half-dimensional space, it also makes the female mercenaries and some proprietresses who are still ordinary people feel depressed.
Even the Nightblade Panther mount was affected, but fortunately, there was a priest of the bishop rank among the mercenaries, and a series of magic spells were blessed through the auxiliary combat system, so that it could still walk calmly in the shadows.

Although Liu An and his two knights are very powerful, after having the comparison of those very explosive undead bosses that are full of the land of death, Lorika and the female mercenaries have gradually established their image as strong men, and how powerful they are.
For the purpose of scientific research and some other egg pain, Liu An occasionally goes out to catch those monsters that ordinary people will lose their souls at a glance.
It's no joke, despite being undead, they're the same as dragons, and the undead leaders are creatures at the top of the pyramid. So there is also a mental suppression similar to Long Wei. Moreover, contrary to life, this kind of mental suppression is mostly based on negative states such as fear, grief, and weakness, and if it is purely from the perspective of intimidation, the effect is even better than that of Long Wei.
"Being scared to death" is not an unacceptable thing, and there are many celebrities who are scared to death on the poor earth. For example, a certain king in the history of Vietnam, in the history of the 11th district, there are also generals who died because of athlete's foot.
Through the auxiliary combat system of the Nightblade Leopard Mount, female mercenaries can feel these powerful spiritual force fields immersively, they are not fledgling and tender miserable green Xiaobai, but experienced and experienced senior mercenaries, not to mention the lives of ten people each, can develop from an adventure team of a few people to a team of hundreds of people, at least Lorika and her two partners. Gelana and Yuriel are both decisive characters.
is such an elite mercenary, in contact with these leader-level undead creatures in the depths of the land of death, to be precise, their fear spirit force field, in Jielana for everyone blessed with mental magic such as "morale boosting", "holy courage" and other mental magic skills, but also basically shrouded in negative emotions, combat effectiveness was weakened to the freezing point.
It's not that the level of divine magic is too low and has no effect, it's that their own foundation is too weak. Even with the protection of these divine powers, the room for improvement is not enough to counter the negative spiritual force field of those undead boss creatures.
Opposite them. Liu An, Somi and Sophie really shouldn't be too easy when they are fighting against these big bosses.
"Fear aura", "weakness aura", "grief aura", this is what Liu An and the others called these spiritual force fields, and the three of them almost ignored the impact caused by these negative auras.
Suomi and Sophie's fighting style is at least within their comprehension, Suomi is a wind-type sword master, and his hurricane fighting blade is comparable to Dongfeng missiles washing the ground. If they knew what a Dongfeng missile was. The battle was almost over after the target was basically severely crippled, and a radius of several kilometers in the vicinity was leveled.
Sophie is a sacred sword saint, and even more so the nemesis of undead creatures, and the monstrous realm of holy light is like concentrated sulfuric acid. Let the ordinary undead creatures within the range of the wave be wiped out, even if the boss creature resistance is strong, it will also lose blood - the only consequence is that the group taunts the effect is outstanding, and after the battle, you must flash people quickly, otherwise you will be beaten by the undead bosses of the sea and the sea who are attracted to it.
Liu An's fighting style is completely incomprehensible to them, and even their auxiliary buff magic/magic has no effect on him at all, often seeing him fly lightly in front of the huge bone demons and ghosts, beckoning, a little light appears, so fast that they can't even feel the magic fluctuations, so they seal these big bosses into the crystal.
The only explanation is that his level is too high, so high that they can't even look up to it.
"That's ...... Infinitely close to the power of God......"
In a certain conversation, Jaelana, who is a clergyman, said from the bottom of her heart.
But it's such an existence, in the ordinary way people don't feel any different from ordinary people, when he's in a good mood, he even cooks delicious food for everyone, a somewhat rebellious girl like Andres, he treats him as a peer at all.
Obviously, such behavior cannot be described by "some eccentricity of the superior".
In this case, Chrissna and Mephiri gradually appear inside the half-dimensional space.
Eat and drink together, or use the game pod to entertain and train, and when a few proprietresses get used to their presence, they also move out of the space cage.
However, Mayphili was still a little unconvinced by some of Chrisina's comments, thinking that she was only suddenly subdued last time, and Sophie seemed to be weak, so she came to challenge.
But she's really dying...... Compared with Suomi, although Sophie is slightly inferior, this girl is very indiscriminate now, and she will not be as general as Suomi and knows how to keep her hands. Within the proprietress , with the improvement of medical standards, in order to maintain herself outside of Qin Yue and Suomi...... At most, counting the barbarian of Sela, in order to maintain her status as the "first lady", Sophie will not show mercy.
As a result, it took Liu An a long time to combine Mei Feili into her original form...... It's gratifying that it didn't become another species.
※I ※ is ※ evil ※ evil ※ ※ divides ※ cut ※ thread※
Time passed in such a dim and dark environment, and the dark journey seemed to never end, after everyone had become accustomed to all kinds of heavy scenery and environment. Then suddenly, one day, the Nightblade Panther mount stepped out of the range shrouded in black mist.
The sun shines overhead after a long absence, and it feels like a world away.
"The sun is so comfortable on my body"
Andres stretched, sniffing the scent of grass and flowers, and said.
A group of enchantment rune metal rods had been laid out on the ground, forming a relatively safe zone within a hundred meters of the perimeter.
She and her mother, Lorika, and several other mercenaries. Gather firewood, ingredients and herbs.
"It's too long in the dark to feel like this," Lorika looked at the portable iPad in her hand, compared the flowers and plants around her, and when she saw that it was eligible, she used a small shovel to shovel it off, including the soil at the roots, put it into a translucent herb box, and then put it into the storage ring.
On the other side, Luna the hunter is carrying a basket and picking mushrooms, including those that are particularly bright in color and covered with strange spots on the head of the umbrella, and Liu Ann has a special cooking technique to make these poisonous and hallucinogenic mushrooms extremely delicious. It's like a pufferfish, so now ordinary mushrooms are no longer in her range...... This is also a form of death.
Gelana and Yuriel are collecting dead branches and dry firewood, ...... The extravagant collection activity uses a storage ring as a container. Although the two of them are spellcasters and are also nobles, they have also been familiar with this kind of chores for more than ten years, and they do not have the aristocratic disease of ten fingers that do not touch the spring water.
Jelana: "It looks like you're building a new waypoint, so I'm afraid the journey won't be something we can participate in."
Yuriel: "That's right. Although we have come out of the Land of the Dead, the magical beasts in the depths of the Everfree Forest are not comparable to our abilities. Totally a burden."
Gelana: "After that, I guess Luna will continue her journey with the Lord, after all, her ability can uncover many hidden natural secrets, and we will return to Norsvan after the Adult has built a new waypoint"
Yuriel glanced at Lorika's mother and daughter in the distance, lowered her voice and said, "It's better to find a way to let the eldest sister and Andres stay, even if it's to do some work of serving tea and pouring water......" She shrugged her shoulders as she spoke. "Although some of them are not on the stage, they can meet adults. This is an extremely rare opportunity."
"You mean ......"
After all, she was born in an aristocratic family, and Gelana was just stunned to understand what her friend meant.
……
Leaving aside their little calculations, after a few days of rest, after Liu An built a new supply point, Gelana and Yuriel did return to the Anthropocene. And Lorika and Andrez did stay with Luna the Hunter.
After replenishing some personnel and provisions, Liu An continued his search journey.
……
In the ruins of a stone pillar with six stone pillars, the ground is carved with mottled spiral patterns, full of the precipitation of time.
Each stone pillar is engraved with six-sided runes, if you cut off this section of the engraved runes, out of the vicissitudes of the texture above, you will find that they are exactly the same size and shape, and the hexagons composed of these six sides are also standard symmetrical patterns.
A faint expulsion aura emanated from a hollow stalagmite in the center of the stone henge, making all the beasts and demonic beasts subconsciously stay away from here, avoiding any kind of damage to the stone henge.
"Is this it?"
Standing outside the stone formation, the elf Mephiri asked.
Liu An touched the irregular stone pillar in front of him, and scratched the back of his head with his other hand.
"I don't know what to do, I need to make sure, but it should be here."
"I didn't expect there to be a teleportation point built by human mages at the edge of the former king's shelter, but this is not the entrance to the Forminster tribe, and it will never be possible to enter the interior of Hanlazir."
Han Lazir is the most ebony elf sanctuary opened up by the elven kings in ancient times, which seems to involve a rather dark history, and it is not a major event such as the destruction of the world or the invasion of aliens.
According to the descriptions of the two native elves, Liu An guessed that it was a large-scale space spell, much larger than what he planned to do in the Land of the Dead, and there should be many high-level magic techniques contained in it, once the entire shelter was opened, the continent under his feet would probably become a lifebuoy, and the land in the center of the tens of thousands of kilometers would be enclosed and contained in a half-dimensional space...... It is estimated that there are only elves in ancient times. will have that long lifespan to carry out and complete this long plan.
As he spoke, the others came out of the half-dimensional space on the forehead of the Nightblade Leopard's mount one by one, waiting for Liu An's instructions.
"Lorika, you set up the enchantment first, and it may leak a lot of magic fluctuations in a while. Lest you attract any troublesome guys."
"Yes, my lord"
The mercenary took her daughter and her men and took the order.
……
Buick is a thief.
Not all stalkers like espionage or assassination, and Buick prefers gold coins dyed with aristocratic red to bloody insignia (usually heads) or anything that kills you.
So despite his high stealth level, or rather his skill as a thief, his hands are clean and have not been stained with human blood.
Gray hair, not that dazzling gray. Rather, it is a dull gray, about two fingers long, because long hair can affect movement. The public face, lips and chin with short beards carefully trimmed with scissors are very inconspicuous in the crowd.
Because he is cautious and low-key, he has always lived a very nourishing life.
However, something has happened recently, he has lost his memory of a certain period of time, and he has some inexplicable teammates around him.
God knows how he signed that magic contract. Whether it's a thief or an expedition, he never forms a team. Because he never trusted anyone.
The team was almost full of beautiful women, including the middle-aged female swordsman, saying almost, because there was also a black-haired teenager, I don't know what Lu Dao was for, Buick's instinct always told him that this teenager was dangerous. Although he looked like a harmless aristocratic young master, another young swordsman was more threatening than him.
Speaking of threatening...... It was the first time in Buick's life that he had seen so many dangerous women gathered together, the red-haired young woman and the blonde-haired young girl knight simply subverted the image of women in his mind, usually a fight of ten is already a rare master among mercenaries and adventurers, and the two of them can fight a group.
The current perception of this group is two hundred and four. A certain gang of thieves who had been wiped out three days ago, and it didn't seem to be the upper limit of either of the two, they were very relaxed. This made Buick very well-behaved after that, and he no longer dared to deliberately lead the wrong way.
Fireproof, anti-theft, anti-beauty.
Their destination is Fort Greystone, a stronghold run by the "Behind the Scenes" Thieves' Guild.
This is usually the place where Buick sells stolen goods, and it is also a place where there are no police detectives from any kingdom, maybe some secret agents, without any kingdom laws, but there are Limestone Castle's own rules.
The "man behind the scenes" is a thief's guild, which focuses more on traditional business, assassination and espionage, but does not refuse to join thieves and other types of professionals like Buick, after all, selling stolen goods is also a lucrative industry, and when carrying out some difficult operations, it also needs the cover of other professions.
Maintaining and operating a large stronghold like Limestone Castle itself requires many professions that can act as daily guards, such as warriors, swordsmen, archers, etc., and a large number of spellcasters are required to maintain the operation of the magic circle and enchantment of the entire stronghold.
……
The continent at your foot is another continent called "West Point", which literally does not mean a Western-style meal, probably because of the relatively small area, which is only a small point compared to other giant continents.
Despite this, West Point is also a third the size of the Americas, as well as rich magical minerals, and compared to other continents, it is still a continent with a relatively advanced demonic civilization.
Because in the information of the old man and the male god, at least in his time, 10,000 years ago, there was a starting point in the West Point Continent, and the magic martial arts academy that violated the social sciences on the earth often appeared, not only has a national nature, but also a private nature, in Mandarin, it is national and private.
After Liu An passed through more than a dozen secret realms that were connected together, the exit was the Southern Demonic Forest, which was more than a thousand kilometers away from the Limestone Castle, and at the same time, the West Point Continent was also the traditional territory of the Night Nobles in the information of the old man and the male god.
Out of his usual caution, the group did not rush into contact with the local natives, but caught a thief wandering in the forest - in addition to stealing, Buick would also take on some expeditionary tasks when there was no suitable target, such as collecting medicine or some kind of rare ore.
Liu An took action, in addition to spying on Buick's life deeds, including his feat of peeking at a woman taking a bath when he was eight years old (?). In addition to copying the local language and common sense, he also typed a fabricated piece into his head, and while he was delirious, he signed a three-month magic contract.
Three months is enough time for Liu An to sort out enough information and disguise himself as a successful West Point Mainland native.
※I ※ is ※ evil ※ evil ※ ※ divides ※ cut ※ thread※
Walking down the humble streets, the group didn't stand out, even though they rode a Nightblade Panther mount, including Rolika's mother and daughter.
The level of magic martial arts in the West Point Continent is obviously higher, many mercenaries and adventurers have magic mounts, and in such a mountainous environment, most of them are dominated by big cats and canine monsters, but they are not as stylish and handsome as the Nightblade Leopard.
At the same time, similar to the Tree Realm plane, although the races here are not as beautiful and handsome as the elves, they are all handsome men and women, plus the civilization level of this continent is higher, and the personal hygiene of ordinary people and the health conditions on the streets are much better than the wild continent where the Kingdom of Sbay is located, so that Liu An finally has a sense of magic in the magical world.
(Power outages, computer system crashes, daddy's full-level, pee...... I was a little devastated by these.,Some time ago, I found myself completely injecting water.,So I emptied my head and recovered for a while.,It's resuming the update) (To be continued......)
