Chapter 51: The Breath of a King
After Rooney handed over the affairs of the underground palace to his subordinates, he went out to practice. Pen ~ fun ~ pavilion www.biquge.info
Since he knew that the general-level lord had sent several troops in the low-level area, it was just right to use them to gain experience, and by the way, to confuse the general-level lord, making it difficult for the other party to determine how many forces were attacking his troops.
After walking around all the A-level areas, I didn't find any troops, not even the more advanced elite monsters.
It seems that those troops don't disdain too low-level areas, so it's okay, at least the dungeon is safe for the time being.
Rooney began to search the B-class area, where elite monsters appeared frequently, and the mineral deposits were much better than the A-class area, and Rooney soon noticed a destroyed dungeon.
When I went down to check, I found that there were many casualties, and all useful resources had been removed.
It is initially estimated that the scale of this dungeon is only at the village level, which is much smaller than Rooney's town-level dungeon soldiers and scale.
Rooney did not find the body of the Underlord, and either escaped or was taken by the enemy.
Thinking that this dungeon was newly established and would not have much to look at, Rooney left the destroyed dungeon and continued to search for the plundering troops.
After turning around for a long time, I finally found a destroyed underground palace, and this underground palace should have developed into a town-level city.
Rooney descended from the sky and walked to the entrance of the dungeon, only to hear the faint sound of battle coming from the depths of the dungeon.
Looking at the various bodily fluids of the monsters on the ground that had not yet dried up, Rooney was sure that he had heard correctly, and even if he heard it wrong, the battle here was not over soon.
Rooney carefully followed the monster corpse into the dungeon, and found that the owner of the dungeon was very clever and actually built a three-dimensional labyrinth at the entrance.
This makes it even more difficult for the enemy to find the right route to the Vault of the Dungeon.
Choosing a random route with a lot of corpses, Rooney kept exploring the depths.
And the voice heard outside the gate of the underground palace before became clearer and clearer, it was indeed the sound of a large number of soldiers fighting.
Rooney escaped with the voice, and found that the three-dimensional maze was directly opened up and down by the monsters, and the situation of the passage should have been dug directly by the enemy, not the passage deliberately left by the master, it seems that the invading troops are not simple.
The sound came from the destroyed passages, and Rooney followed the direction from which it came, and after walking for about four or five minutes, he saw the tail of the invading force.
It was a bunch of Cerberus and Ghouls, all carrion-type monsters that had been modified by the Lich.
Ghouls and Cerberus are very agile, but they both have the disadvantage of being controlled by higher-ranking lichs or intelligent ghouls.
For example, Rooney can now control these ghouls and hellhounds, but he doesn't do that, he just blends in with the ghouls and hellhounds at will.
Rooney wants to see the people behind the control of these ghouls and Cerberus, which may be the food for his own strength.
When Rooney came to the front of the ghouls and Cerberus, Rooney saw a ghoul king with a captain of six with a captain of six fighting a psionic mage with a captain of seven.
Unexpectedly, there were two captain-level monsters at once, Rooney was happy in his heart, and hurriedly stepped aside, carefully hiding his breath.
Let them fight with each other, and when they lose in the end, just go out and pick up the bargain.
Seeing that this town-level underground palace has been established for a short time, it may have accumulated a lot of resources, and it is just right to enrich its own underground palace at the same time.
As long as his strength hits the general level this time, and the dungeon is upgraded to the city level, then there is a possibility of fighting with the invading general-level lord.
Rooney hid in the shadows and watched the battle intently, for the same ghoul king, he knew that the ghoul king in front of him, who was a sixth-level captain, had also improved his physical fitness.
It's just that his opponent, the seventh-level psionic mage, is superior, and the ghoul king has been firmly contained.
And a large number of skeleton warriors and skeleton mages of psionic mages are effectively killing ghouls and cerberus.
After the ghoul king on a mission forced off the psionic mage, he grabbed the ghoul and Cerberus next to him and began to eat.
This is the benefit of ghouls, as long as there are corpses, they can quickly recharge energy on the battlefield.
And the psionic mage has been fighting with the ghoul king for a while, and the consumption is not small, if the ghoul king does not recover his energy, then he still has an advantage in skills and combat power.
Now that his energy is gradually recovering, the Ghoul King is gradually pulling the scales of victory to his side.
The psionic mage suddenly launched a psionic storm, bursting with such a large amount of energy in such a small space, and the ordinary monsters in the passage were instantly blasted into slag.
It seems that the psionic mage intends to wipe out the ghouls and hellhounds in one go, so that the ghoul king's mobile supplies are all scrapped, and at the same time, the ghoul king, who is closest to the psionic storm, is also taken by surprise, and one arm is burned into char by the tyrannical energy to protect his head.
However, the Psionic Storm didn't wipe out all the ghouls and Cerberus, some of them just around the corner, and some of Rooney's side survived.
The psionic mage wasn't distracted by the remaining ghouls and hellhounds, and he had to kill the ghoul king before he could recover from his injuries.
Before the aftermath of the psionic storm dissipated, a new round of psionic rainstorm hit the Ghoul King.
Every drop of those condensed and compressed high-energy droplets could melt away a ghoul, even if the ghoul king's body was thousands of times stronger than that of ordinary ghouls, it was extremely dangerous in the face of dense psionic droplets.
The Ghoul King didn't give up his resistance, and when the Psionic Storm hit, he hammered the ground and cracked it.
Cracked stone clods were blasted into the air by his furious energy, blocking most of the psionic droplets.
However, the remaining psionic droplets made the ghoul king babe in sulfuric acid, and bursts of green smoke rose, although he didn't scream, but he knew that it was not good to see his teeth clenched.
Originally, the remaining ghouls and hellhounds wanted to support the Ghoul King, but they were drenched by a shower of psionic energy from the psionic mage, and there were very few left.
Even if you are all eaten by the Ghoul King, you won't be able to provide much energy.
And the psionic mage released two super-large spells in a row, and his own magic energy was also consumed, so he could no longer release powerful spells for the time being.
However, a large number of skeleton warriors and skeleton mages of psionic mages are still intact, so that these minions can pile up and kill the ghoul king in front of them, who only has one or two percent of combat power.
The Ghoul King knew that he had failed this time, and he began to slowly retreat while guarding against enemy attacks.
Suddenly he felt his head lifted, and he saw his body being kicked to the ground, and there was no head on it.
......
Rooney devoured the head of the ghoul king of the sixth level of the captain, and not only obtained the opponent's energy, but also the ability of the opponent to absorb and transform.
From this sixth-level ghoul king, he learned to quench poison and strengthen bones.
Quenching poison can make your weapon attach poison, once the poison enters the body, the enemy can enter a paralyzing state, the paralysis effect depends on the strength of the enemy, and as Rooney's ability increases, the toxicity of the poison will also increase.
Strong bones are to increase the strength of their bones, Rooney was sawed off by the dragonfly beast twice before because the bones were not hard enough, now with the strong bone skill, Rooney's bones will be able to withstand the dragonfly attack that day.
Just devouring one of the ghoul king's heads, Rooney felt that his magic energy was a little stronger, and it seemed that after devouring all the corpses of the ghoul king, he could increase his strength by three or four points.
With the addition of a psionic mage with a captain level seven, he will be able to break through the captain level nine to reach the general level today.
Rooney was thrilled to think that he was going to become a general, but that was only until the Devouring Psionic Mage.
The psionic mage seemed to think he was in the gang of the ghoul king he had just killed, and was brewing a new super-sized spell.
However, Rooney will not give him time to make a move, because now Rooney is hungry and thirsty, a lightning thorn bone whip is thrown out, the psionic mage who recites the spell stops abruptly, and the whole world is much quieter.
The skeleton warriors and skeleton mages who had lost their dominance stood in place at a loss, wanting to run but not daring to move, wanting to attack but not daring to attack.
Rooney devoured the entire psionic mage in front of his subordinates.
Having learned the new skills Psionic Wave Fist and Psionic Shockwave, both of which are melee skills, Rooney can't help it, he can't choose what skills he learns from the Devourer, and can only absorb and transform the opponent's skills by his body for his own use.
Receiving the captain's seventh-level magic energy, Rooney felt that his whole body was extremely hot, and he was still one point away, and one point of magic energy was still one point away from being able to turn on the switch, so that the incomparably pleasant feeling filled his body.
Rooney's eyes widened as he stared at the headless corpse of the ghoul king behind him, and eating him would break through.
But Rooney kept himself in check, not letting the pleasure of excitement control his actions, and he wanted to let the pleasure subside before enjoying the last bite of the breakthrough.
His heart was pounding, his blood was pumping, and Rooney's eyes were bulging out, and he was fighting with his body.
If he doesn't conquer the control of his body, even if he enters the rank of general, he is nothing more than a slave to a pile of rotting flesh.
Whew!!
Rooney roared to the sky—his eyes were red—and his carrion began to change, from a brownish-gray sturdy tendon to a tighter black tendon.
The original pair of carrion bone wings now has an extra pair, and the carrion on them has become strong sinew.
The various white bones that were exposed all over the body also changed into bright silver demonized silver bones, which were as hard as the super hard magic energy steel of the Demon Domain.
At this time, Rooney has evolved into a general-level existence, and this time Rooney has overcome the cage of the body, and the potential has been greatly developed while the realm has broken through, and there is a vague bit of real kingly spirit.
Rooney's red eyes swept over the men of the psionic mages, and he pointed to the headless ghoul king on the ground and said to them, "Go eat it." After eating, empty this dungeon for me, and come back to your new home with me. ”
