Chapter 8: Skeleton Soldiers

At this moment, Layton was like a big man who was about to molest an unarmed girl, looking at the skeleton soldier struggling at his feet with malicious intentions, and smiled. The palm of his hand condensed into a smaller Flame Bullet, which accurately entered the skeleton's skull.

In an instant, it broke through the defense of the skeleton soldier's soul fire, and the soul fire shook and drifted away under the attack of the Hellfire Bullet, much weaker, and the strength to struggle was much smaller.

"Sure enough. Layton said happily.

Conclude a contract of servitude and forge a contract sigil with both hands, accurately striking into the faint soul fire in the skeleton soldier's eye socket.

In an instant, there was a cold and cold feeling in the soul. Layton clearly noticed that there was a slender gray soul fire outside the soul mist ball in his mind, which continued to rotate around his soul mist ball, and the soul mist ball also changed from a misty form to a little more condensed.

The skeleton soldiers on the ground had stopped struggling and stared blankly at Layton.

Leighton couldn't help but be thrilled to complete a soul contract and possess his first servant undead, marking him officially a first-order dark mage.

Through that gray soul fire, he can clearly convey his mind to the skeleton soldiers, and constantly command the skeleton soldiers to crawl around.

Layton laughed at the skeleton soldiers on the ground, "From today onwards, you are the first warrior I have conquered the realm of the undead. ”

Just in the blink of an eye, Layton became worried: "You can't look like this, I want a warrior who can fight for me." How can you work hard for half a day and end up only getting a crippled skeleton soldier. ”

"Alas, find a chance to get you a lower body and continue the fight!"

In line with the principle of not wasting it, Layton took half of the skeleton soldier and continued to explore into the distance, and said in his heart: "Next time, you have to pay attention, you must get a complete skeleton soldier." ”

Finally, after coming to a mound, a deserted house appeared. Outside the house hovered a sword-wielding skeleton soldier, the soul fire in his eyes a little stronger.

Layton carefully hid behind the mound and observed for a long time, finding no other dangers. Pick up a dry bone on the ground and throw it not far away.

The skeleton soldier heard the movement, first looked around, then followed the sound.

Layton took the opportunity to hide behind the skeleton soldier and waited quietly.

In an instant, like a fierce tiger, he shouted: "Hellfire Bomb." With a wave of his hand, the Hellfire Bullet accurately hit the Skeleton Soldier's soul fire.

The skeleton shook his body and fell straight down. Layton is overjoyed and jumps off the mound to check the status of the skeletons.

At this time, the soul fire in the skeleton soldier's eye socket was severely damaged, and only a small ball of soul fire was left to sway. Not to be missed, Leighton quickly concluded a contract of servitude, and a contract sigil was engraved into the fire of his soul.

The cold feeling came again, and Layton was pleasantly surprised to find that there was another wisp of gray soul on the soul mist ball.

Commanding the skeletons who had the same heart as he could, Layton was overjoyed and laughed.

At this moment, hearing Layton's smug laughter, two skeleton soldiers came out of the house one after another. Holding a long knife of white bones, he strode towards Layton and roared.

Layton stood forward at this time, arrogant, and shouted: "Hehe, I didn't expect there to be two more, just in time." "Commanding the skeleton soldiers who had just been obtained, stepped forward to contain one.

With a low chanting spell, he cast a fire bullet that condensed in his right hand and flew forward, kicking one of the skeletons away, and the fire bullet in his right hand followed closely behind, shooting straight at the soul fire.

The left hand instantly enslaved the contract, and a contract rune was engraved on the soul fire that was still swaying in the wind. The whole action was smooth and in one go, and the contract of slavery was successfully concluded.

The last skeleton soldier, facing a three-on-one situation, was dying under the mad beating of the two skeleton soldiers, and Layton stepped forward and simply completed the enslavement contract.

After this battle, Leighton successfully recovered the three skeleton soldiers, and he was very happy, and the soul fog ball became more and more condensed, and he also found that he could do two things in actual combat, which can be regarded as stimulating his fighting instinct.

After resting for a while and recovering his soul power, Leighton led three skeleton soldiers and one crippled skeleton soldier to continue exploring into the distance.

For ten whole days, there was not a single break. With a belief in revenge, Layton turns his grief into strength. The seeds of a desperate thirst for revenge have been planted in his heart, constantly burning, driving him to gain greater power.

There was a shaking on the ground, and a small torrent of white bones appeared in the distance and rushed on the white bone wasteland, mighty and mighty, and everywhere it went, it was like an autumn wind sweeping away the leaves, and there was no bones.

At this time, Leighton's skeleton team was already small, and the number of skeleton soldiers reached eighty-five. All sorts, some are holding white bone knives, some are holding a beast bone, and some are even empty-handed, and it is Layton himself standing at the forefront.

In the abandoned village in front of the target, Leighton led the skeleton team, undisguised, and rushed directly naked, quite ferocious.

More than thirty skeleton soldiers hurried out of the abandoned village to meet them, but this number was not at all a threat to Leighton's skeleton team.

Looking at the more than thirty skeleton soldiers in front of him, Layton was overjoyed: "Yo, it's still a small team." ”

Without too many words, as soon as they met, it was the most tragic battle, only the most primitive chopping, and the bones of the entire battlefield flew sideways, and broken bones were everywhere.

Leighton walked the battlefield like a leisurely stroll, his hands constantly enslaving the fallen soul fire on the verge of collapse.

Battles come and go as fast as they go. Without any suspense, more than thirty skeleton soldiers were regrouped into the skeleton team under the conquest of Leighton.

At this moment, Leighton's skeleton team has reached the threshold of one hundred, and it is impossible to absorb new soul fire, and the undead slaves of the first-level dark mage are exactly one hundred.

After ten days of running around day and night, a hundred gray soul fires were tightly surrounded by Leighton's soul mist ball, and the soul mist ball was about to form a ball of light, faintly showing signs of breakthrough. He had a hunch that if he wanted to reach second-order strength now, he would have to enslave and contract a second-order undead creature.

Looking at the hundred skeleton soldiers in front of him, Layton's heart was simply happy, and it turned out that the effort paid off.

Layton is the kind of person who will work hard as long as he has a goal, so after ten days of continuous meditation, continuous searching, and continuous subduation, although the days are a little boring, the harvest is still full, and the skeleton team can grow, and his strength has also jumped from ordinary people to the peak of a first-order magician.

The Bone Wasteland was really bigger than Layton had imagined, and it had only been a matter of running from one mountain to the other for ten days.

When you look up, you can't tell the difference between the sky and the earth. Gray, in addition to gray, only a few scattered abandoned houses are able to show that the horizon does exist.

Although now he is the body of the undead, he can go without eating or drinking, and he will never tire of it. However, the Holy Dragon Heart in his body is the source of life, and he is suffering from the rejection of the undead world all the time, and at this moment, it seems that he is about to reach the limit, causing the death qi in his body to exceed the life force.

Layton's consciousness fell on the Holy Dragon Heart in his body, and he found that it was hazy and covered with a layer of dead energy. After careful observation, he found that although his whole body was wrapped in soul power, there was still a faint trace of lifeless qi outside his body that eroded into his body all the time, gathering at the heart of the holy dragon, enclosing the heart of the holy dragon into a cocoon.

As a result, the Holy Dragon's Heart was corroded by the death qi, and the life energy that burst out was a little dim, and the sealing energy transmitted to the starry sky chain was gradually reduced.

It's really a bad sign, Layton understands that if it is not controlled and measures are taken, in the long run, the seal of the Holy Dragon's Heart will become weaker and weaker, and the dead qi in the body will become more and more, becoming a continuous source of energy for the Undead Monument, and finally it is very likely to cause the Undead Monument to break the seal. At that time, I am afraid that the first person who will suffer is that he will be sucked into a dry corpse, and he will truly become an undead who has lost his sense of self.

This was not the result he wanted, so he had no choice but to return to the Holy Dragon Continent first and find a solution.

Leighton chose to settle a hundred skeletons in this abandoned village, and gave an order to fix the defense. Although the skeletons are a bit sluggish and inflexible, they are still basically complete for some simple instructions. After making all these arrangements, he began to communicate with the Undead Monument in his soul, preparing to teleport back to the Holy Dragon Continent.
