Chapter Ninety-Four: The Army of Skeletons
Sighing outside the canyon, the sound of a battle between the two clans shook the sky, but there was no sound of birds and insects in the canyon.
The only sound was the slight clatter of the skeleton as it walked, which now sounded better to Arthur, Morar, and the others than the most beautiful music, because it meant another piece of magical equipment to be acquired.
Morar picked up a large mace from the weapons left behind by the orcs, and he was always the first to rush at the sight of a walking skeleton, and the skeleton shattered to the ground with a single hammer, and then he could rummage through the loot.
Another skeleton appeared, and Moral rushed before Joan again.
The skeleton of this skeleton is exceptionally tall and strong, and the skull also wears a pointed helmet on its head, judging by its size, it should be a minotaur among the orcs when it was alive. But in Moral's opinion, all the skeletons are no different, they are all moving fortune boys, and all he needs is a hammer to swing.
Morar went down with a hammer, but the expected scene of skeleton shattering did not appear, and the skeleton's body twisted and deftly dodged.
Morar was stunned for a moment, this skeleton could dodge!
While Morar was still stunned, the long sword in the skeleton's hand had already slashed at him.
"Moral, get out of the way!" Arthur yelled as he spoke.
In a panic, Morar only knew how to step back, and suddenly stumbled under his feet, and sat on the ground.
The skull's sword fell, and the blade slashed between Moral's legs, the tip of the sword less than an inch away from his heirloom, so frightened that Morar almost urinated.
Before a single sword was struck, the skeleton's sword had already been raised again.
By this time, Arthur had already rushed forward, and the Starfall Greatsword slashed upward, colliding head-on with the sword that the skeleton had cut down.
The Starfall sword sank vigorously, and Arthur charged another blow, wanting to test the power of the skeleton. The two swords intersected, and the sword in the skeleton's hand flew out in one fell swoop.
Arthur swung his sword and slashed, and the skeleton moved to the side to dodge. Arthur's sword was so long and fast that the skeleton couldn't dodge it at all, and the lumbar vertebrae connected to the upper and lower parts of his body were cut off by a sword.
Only the skeleton with the upper body left was still moving, and its arms were supported and crawled towards Arthur still wanting to attack.
Arthur saw a faint glimmer of fire in its empty eye sockets, the fire of the soul!
The skeleton was already a necromantic creature, and Arthur smashed its head with a sword, and the skeleton fell apart completely.
"The dexterity is okay, the strength is insufficient, and the combat power is barely up to the standard of a first-level warrior of the human race. That's what Arthur had to say about the skeleton.
"Didn't you say these skeletons weren't necromantic creatures, but now they're emerging as necromantic creatures?" asked Golly.
Arthur spread his hands, this canyon was too strange for Arthur to explain.
"Strange thing, why doesn't this skeleton have any magic items on it? Morar climbed into the pile of skeletons without getting up from the ground, but strangely found nothing.
Just when everyone was puzzled, Joan suddenly shouted, "Wait, what is this?"
What Joan picked up from the skeleton was something that resembled a pebble. The pebble has no color, and the surface is smooth and translucent, like a colorless, impurity-free amber.
Arthur took the pebble from Joan's hand, and the moment he held it in his hand, he sensed the peculiarity of the peculiarity. There is a lot of energy in this stone!
Arthur closed his eyes, the fighting qi was running, and the energy in the stone was introduced into his body with the douqi rotation. Arthur opened his eyes, his face showed undisguised joy, a Zhou Tian Dou Qi operation, the Dou Qi left in his body was almost three times that of his previous cultivation.
"How?"
"What the hell is this?"
Golly and Joan couldn't wait to ask.
"Try it for yourselves. Arthur handed the pebble to Golly.
Golly was followed by Huey, then Joan, Arya, and the dwarf, and the pebbles spun around in everyone's hands. Everyone looked surprised or excited.
"Everyone can absorb the energy they need from it, right? If I'm not mistaken, this thing is the Yuan Crystal we're looking for!"
"This thing is amazing!" said Golly.
Everyone had excited smiles on their faces, and they thought it would take a lot of effort, but they didn't expect to complete the goal of this mission so easily.
"Okay, go ahead, there must be a lot of these things in the canyon, let's collect as many as we can, and go back as soon as possible when we're done." Arthur looked up at the sky as he spoke, and although he could not see the sun, it was beginning to get dark, and the day had passed imperceptibly. Because of the constant excitement of harvesting, no one felt the passage of time, and they didn't even feel hungry.
Arthur had to force everyone to stop and rest, replenish their food and take a nap, as they were ready to fight. The skeletons they encountered now belong to the necromantic creatures, and they will take the initiative to attack and dodge, although the one they destroyed before is weak, but no one dares to guarantee that there is no more powerful existence in the depths of the canyon.
By the time several people woke up from their naps, the canyon had completely darkened.
There was no moonlight tonight, and the dark and heavy hand in the canyon could not see the five fingers, and a sigh-like wind blew, which was eerie and chilling.
Arya lit up a ball of light, and the soft white light illuminated most of the canyon within a few dozen meters in front of her, and also dispelled the fear that shrouded her heart.
It feels good to have a Light Priest in the team!
Arthur and the others continued to explore deeper into the canyon, but the expected battle did not happen. Occasionally, a walking skeleton will appear, but it is not a necromantic creature that I encountered before, and naturally I have never obtained Yuan Crystal again.
Further on, the canyon gradually became narrower and narrower, and finally even the dry bones on the ground were gone, as if the warriors of the two clans had walked here the deepest.
"Could it be that the necromantic creature just formed by accident?" several people looked at each other suspiciously, but no one answered.
"Go on, since we're not there yet, we'll have to go to the end of the canyon and see what's there?"
As soon as Arthur's words fell, before they could take a step, they heard a dense sound from the depths of the canyon.
Arthur and the others immediately prepared for battle, there was only the enemy here! But everyone's eyes sparkled with excitement, and if there was a battle, there would be gains.
The sound of clattering is getting closer and closer, as if countless spiders are crawling on the paper, which makes people feel creepy.
A dense flash of fire suddenly appeared in front of them, and moved quickly towards Arthur and them.
"Arya, orb of light!"
A ball of light flew forward, and the ball of light reflected the skeleton warriors in armor with blades in hand, and the little fire that I saw before was clearly the soul fire jumping in the skeleton's eyes.
The skeletons were next to each other, so dense that they couldn't see their heads at a glance.
Everyone's faces changed drastically, they only wanted to hunt a few skeletons, but now they were waiting for an army of skeletons!
