Chapter 37: The Countdown to the Ceiling

The skeletons in the sky let out a roar.

Strands of dead air quickly condensed in the air, turning into dozens of skeleton soldiers.

The skeleton warriors were surrounded by pitch-black smoke and held blood-stained knives in their hands.

Chen Mo raised his head, and the hand holding the knife tightened.

He felt a breath of death permeate.

The target of these skeleton warriors was not him, but the corpse hall behind him.

Shout!

Chen Mo wielded the Tianxuan Knife and stabbed a child...... Skeleton Soldiers.

Puff puff......

The dead skeleton warriors turned black and returned to the skeleton faces in the sky.

A text update appears on top of the bronze lamp.

The Roar of the Dead is immune to physical attacks, and your long knife is ineffective against it. But it also has a fatal weakness, the user of the entry does not blend in with the entry, you may be able to look around to see if there are any young people hiding in a corner. 】

Chen Mo was stunned.

He closed his eyes and felt carefully.

In addition to the huge amount of pollution in the sky, there was indeed a faint smell nearby.

This breath is much weaker than the 'roar of the dead'.

Chen Mo's qi machine locked it.

The skeletal faces in the sky roared again, and a huge black dragon condensed out of thin air.

The black dragon was extremely fast, and when Chen Mo closed his eyes, he had already attacked in front of him.

Rumble!

He was caught off guard and was hit head-on by the black dragon.

His body flew upside down and slammed into the walls of the corpse hall.

With such a violent impact, the walls were unexpectedly intact, and not even a trace was left.

But Chen Mo was extremely uncomfortable.

Burst!

He couldn't help but spurt out a mouthful of blood.

The shock of the reaction force caused his internal organs to be damaged to varying degrees.

What's worse is that the body is invaded by a rich death qi, and the breath of life is being devoured madly.

Blood-colored writing appeared on the bronze lamp.

[The breath of death will leave you with no bones left after a minute, you can use fifty drops of lamp oil to purify these dead qi and recover from injuries, or you can choose to die like this and use the resurrection gold to regain your life.] 】

The Resurrection Gold Coin was so precious, he didn't want to use it so easily for the time being.

"Purify!"

Chen Mo made a voice in his heart.

Suddenly, on top of the bronze ancient lamp, the lamp oil continued to drip down, wandering around every corner of the body.

The dead air was vulnerable in front of the lamp oil and was purified one by one.

The residual lamp oil melted into his body, repairing his dilapidated internal organs to their best.

"Assert ......"

A grim laugh erupted from the skeletal face.

It's okay if it doesn't laugh.

Because it laughs, it means that the user of the entry is laughing too.

Chen Mo completely locked the user's position.

The muscles of his legs exploded, and his body ejected from the spot with an astonishing speed.

In the shadow of the corner of the corpse hall, a pitch-black humanoid figure was letting out a grim laugh.

In the next moment, Chen Mo's figure appeared.

"I don't think I'll be convinced by just saying, 'This game isn't easy,' so you're going to pay a terrible price."

Chen Mo's eyes froze, and the Heavenly Xuan Knife cut horizontally, leaving a red aura in the air.

The black shadow's laughter stopped abruptly, and its broken body kept squirming on the ground, trying to converge.

The skeletal faces in the sky emitted a large amount of black aura.

Seeing this, Chen Mo turned around and swung a knife at the sky.

A faint red barrier briefly appeared, blocking all black aura.

Woohoo!

He stabbed the knife downwards and stabbed it into the black body.

Roar Roar Roar ......

As he hurt his black body again and again, the skeletal faces in the sky let out a terrible roar.

Its breath grew weaker and weaker.

Gradually, the black body wound ceased to wriggle, and it died completely.

The skeletal faces in the sky had not disappeared, but were still letting out a terrible roar.

At this time, blood-colored words appeared on the bronze ancient lamp.

[The roar of the dead, can be advanced entries, absorbing death qi can continue to evolve, and has a very small probability of advancing to mythical entries. The Achilles' heel is that when the power of the entry is manifested, the user itself will be extremely weakened, and cannot leave the 100-meter range of the entry. 】

Chen Mo took a deep breath.

If the Achilles' heel is excluded, this entry attribute has great potential.

On top of the bronze ancient lamp, a second blood-colored text appeared.

You can now choose to sacrifice the contaminant in front of you to receive a reward of 100 drops of lamp oil. 】

"Sacrifice!"

The skeletal face in the sky turned into a cloud of black smoke and melted into the black body full of holes.

The surface of the bronze ancient lamp flashed red, and the black body disappeared, turning into a hundred drops of lamp oil into the lamp body.

When the black body disappeared, ten golden coins appeared in Chen Mo's hand.

In the square outside the corpse hall 9, two hundred frozen corpses appeared out of thin air.

"It's been a great harvest!" Chen Mo couldn't help but sigh.

On top of the bronze ancient lamp, blood-colored words emerged.

[Congratulations, you have earned 100 points, 200 frozen corpses, and 10 Resurrection Coins.] Plus, you can easily take over Mortuary 177. 】

Chen Mo moved the frozen corpses into the corpse hiding hall and put them all into the freezer.

In the corpse hall, there are a total of 5,000 squares, representing 5,000 freezers.

At this time, Chen Mo noticed that there was a huge display on the ceiling in the corpse hall.

Countdown to 239:07:55.

239 hours, 07 minutes, 55 seconds.

This was about the time he was going to guard the 9th corpse hall.

Once the countdown reaches zero, and he's not dead.

He will be given a chance to leave.

Minutes and seconds passed.

Perhaps both watchmen did not return, and no intruders arrived in the rest of the day.

Countdown to 228:06:05.

Nearly twelve hours later, the first batch of frozen corpses glowed with a cold blue light, and thirty soldiers appeared out of thin air in the clearing in front of corpse hall 9.

These soldiers were indistinguishable from humans, dressed in uniform black armor and armed with black halberds, standing straight and motionless.

The soldier's skin was pale, and he exuded an icy aura all over his body.

When the soldier appeared, blood-colored writing immediately appeared on the bronze lamp.

[The guards of the corpse hall.] They are incredibly combative, immune to all physical damage, and can heal quickly, no matter how severe, and reunite even if they are broken. The fatal disadvantage is that it is not able to move, and the attack range is only five meters. 】

Chen Mo frowned.

This trait really fits well with the guard's setting.

This means that the placement of guards is extremely important.

If placed in the right place, it can indeed form a strong defensive force.

Chen Mo waited for a while, and the other two hundred frozen corpses all became guards, neatly appearing outside the corpse hiding hall.

The strength of two hundred and thirty guards is not much for a huge corpse hall.

It took an hour for Chen Mo to place all the guards.

He suddenly had a bold idea.
