Chapter 18: The War of the Dead
Upon opening the door, Layton found Manklin standing outside the door, holding a treasure box.
Looking at the person in front of him, Layton frowned slightly, glanced at it, and said coldly: "You are really ghostly. ”
Manklin's face was even more incredulous, he was stunned for a moment, and said in surprise: "Why are you here, just you?" and then stuck his head out through the crack in the door, and kept looking into the room, hoping to find something.
"This is my room, of course I'm here. Layton was already a little annoyed by his behavior.
Manklin's face instantly looked like constipation, and he muttered, "Impossible, this can't be." Are you the genius who has the best dark soul?"
Layton watched him eat something else, and felt comfortable for no reason in his heart, and said coldly: "Yes, I am." ”
Manklin's hand holding the treasure box trembled slightly, and the scene in front of him made him unacceptable. Originally, he wanted to take a dark attribute treasure and come to visit the owner of this special room, hoping to establish a good relationship and preferably form an alliance. Because he knows that every genius with the best dark soul, as long as he grows up and does not fall, he will be at least a seventh-level magician in the future, and his achievements are limitless.
But now it was Layton who appeared in front of him, which made him a little resentful, a poor boy with such a high talent. However, he is worthy of being the son of the city lord, and he instantly analyzes the stakes, knows what is most important, and hides his dissatisfaction.
Manklin quickly smiled, and smiled at him: "Brother Leighton, there have been many misunderstandings in the past, and now I have come to visit sincerely, in order to bridge the gap between us, this is some of my thoughts, and I ask you to accept it." ”
Layton had already seen through his tricks and knew that this person was extremely powerful, and if it weren't for the fact that he had the best dark soul, I am afraid it would be a different situation. But at the moment, he said calmly: "I won't accept your kindness, I still have some things to do, if there is nothing else, please go back!"
As the son of the city lord, when did Manklin receive such a cold reception, he looked at Layton and did not appreciate it, and said gloomily: "Brother Layton, I will make it clear to you." If you want to become a high-level magician, you must not only have talent, but also have a lot of resources to back you up, as long as you are willing to become my vassal, I guarantee you countless cultivation resources. ”
This Layton had heard of it, and it was very common in wizard circles. After all, cultivating magic itself requires a lot of time, and how can there be extra time to find heavenly treasures that can enhance strength, and can only rely on nobles or some big forces. There will be gains and losses, and the price is that you need to be guarded forever and lose your freedom.
Leighton had not avenged his revenge at this time, and he was planted with a parasitic contract, and his life was in danger at any time, how could he run away to be a subordinate to others. Besides, if you lose your freedom and are subject to others for the sake of magical resources, this is also what Layton doesn't want.
Layton looked at Manklin calmly and said with a smile: "You better take it away! I will not become your vassal, and certainly not anyone's vassal." ”
Manklin saw the firmness in Layton's eyes, his face became vicious, and he said coldly: "Good, very good." It seems that you have made up your mind to reject me, and I hope you will not regret it. Although you have the best dark soul attribute, you have to be able to grow up, you must know that there are many geniuses, and there are many who die young. ”
Layton was unmoved, and said calmly: "The Tao is not the same, and it is not sent if you walk slowly." ”
Seeing that it was useless to talk too much, Manklin flicked his sleeves and left angrily.
Back in the room, Layton inserts the black token into the door and turns on the magic guard. Since his skeleton soldiers reached a hundred, the soul mist ball had faintly broken through, but it was always a little behind.
Layton guessed: If he can successfully enslave a second-order undead, his soul mist ball will definitely break through. And he did find the answer in "Dark Magic Foundations", and sure enough, it was.
However, there is one difference in the fact that the upper limit of the first-order dark summoner enslaved the undead is ten, but his upper limit has now reached a hundred. He guessed that it was probably because he had cultivated the Dark Meditation Technique, and remembered what Tutor Susan had explained in class today about the classification of meditation techniques, not only did he look forward to it, but what he cultivated was the secret technique cultivated by the White Bone Emperor of the Undead Realm, how to say that it was also a high-level meditation technique, and it should be normal for these changes to occur.
Layton thought to himself: Anyway, it's a good thing.
What he didn't know was that the Dark Meditation Technique he cultivated was one level more precious than the best, it was an Emperor-level Dark Meditation Technique, which could cultivate the Dark Origin Soul and comprehend the laws of heaven and earth, but at present, his level was too low to feel the existence of the laws at all.
It's not just the Dark Meditation Technique, any spell he obtains from the White Bone Emperor, and if it spreads, I'm afraid it will stir up a bloody storm.
Now, if he wants to break through to the second-order dark summoner, he needs to enslave a second-order undead creature, and open the "Encyclopedia of Undead Creatures" The second-order undead creatures located in the Bone Wasteland include skeleton warriors, skeleton shooters, bone dogs, and so on.
Layton planned to go to the undead realm again tonight, and communicated with the undead monument in his mind, a faint magic covered his whole body, and he came directly to the undead realm through the space, and the target of this trip was a second-order undead creature.
On the land of the White Bone Wasteland, bursts of black yin wind whistled, sweeping towards the distant heaven and earth. Leighton braved the gloomy wind and walked forward, with a hundred of his skeletons behind him.
When he came to a small mound, Layton raised his right hand, and the skeleton soldiers behind him came to a halt.
There was a sound of fighting in the whirring wind, and after listening carefully for a while, Layton ducked behind the mound. Slowly poking his head out of the mound, he found two bone dogs besieging a skeleton warrior below.
Layton remembered the introduction of the Bone Dog and the Skeleton Warrior in the "Encyclopedia of Undead Creatures": the Bone Dog, a second-order medium undead creature, good at running, flexible, often attacking with canine teeth and claws, and physical attacks. Skeleton warrior, second-order top undead creature, left white bone shield, right white bone knife, good at defense, offensive and defensive integration, physical attack.
The battle between the two Bone Dogs and the Skeleton Warrior has now entered the White Searing. In the face of the attack of the two bone dogs, the skeleton warrior used the white bone shield in his hand to resist again and again, and from time to time he turned around and slashed down the bone knife in his right hand.
At this time, a bone dog was accidentally slashed by the skeleton warrior's bone knife, breaking into two pieces, and fell to the ground unable to move. The Skeleton Warrior stepped forward and stomped the Bone Dog's head to the ground, preparing to step on its soul fire.
Suddenly, another bone dog took advantage of the surprise and circled around the back of the skeleton warrior, opened its huge canine mouth, revealing two rows of canine teeth, and bit down hard at the skeleton warrior's ankle.
Just hear a "click!"
The skeleton warrior's ankle was bitten off, and his body fell unsteadily, falling to one side.
Seeing this, the bone dog pounced on the skeleton warrior who pounced on the ground and bit wildly, and the sound of bones breaking continued to sound. Fortunately, the skeleton warrior was covered with a layer of white bone armor to protect it, so it was not too tragic.
Seeing that the soul fire of the skeleton warrior was gradually weakening, the cold claws of the white bone dog were about to pierce the skeleton warrior's head.
With all his strength, the Skeleton Warrior swung the Bone Shield in his left hand and slammed it into the Bone Dog, smashing it to the side. Then he stepped forward, used the white bone shield against the white bone dog's teeth, and raised the white bone knife in his right hand to pierce the white bone dog's head like a wind, shattering the swaying soul fire.
Gradually, the bone dog stopped struggling and turned into a dry bone, and the soul fire in the skull had been shattered and scattered all over the ground.
The skeleton warrior lowered his head and half-knelt on the ground, opening his mouth wide, absorbing the fragments of soul fire scattered on the ground.
Layton found that as the skeleton warrior absorbed the soul fire fragments, the soul fire in its eye sockets began to grow stronger, and the bones on its body were slowly repairing. It's just that the broken ankle is too badly injured, and the skeleton warrior is still limping.
The skeleton warrior turned around and dragged a broken leg, supported by the bone knife in his hand, and walked towards the broken bone dog from earlier.
"It's now. Layton said anxiously: "The skeleton warrior can no longer be allowed to absorb the soul fire fragments of the bone dog and restore its injuries. ”
"Hellfire Bomb!" Layton shouted with his right hand pointing at the skeleton warrior.
A dark green fire bullet struck straight into the skeleton warrior's sternum, but it was neutralized by the white bone shield in the skeleton warrior's hand.
The situation began to become tense, and the air seemed to become oppressive.
