The battle on the first floor of the tomb was far more difficult than Li Nuo had thought.

Bullets, a dangerous weapon that can easily pierce through the human body and shred muscles and internal organs, are much less effective when attacking skull racks.

It's right to think about it, the power of the bullet basically comes from the "cavity effect" formed after the warhead enters the human body.

The prerequisite for the "cavity effect" to be achieved is that the target being hit must have flesh and blood, such as internal organs and muscles.

However, necromantic constructs such as skeleton soldiers, large skeletons, and skeleton dogs have no flesh and blood.

Thanks to their "bloodless" nature, bullets that can cause a lot of damage to the human body can only pierce bones and lift bone fragments when facing a skeleton frame.

Therefore, when facing the large number of skeletons on the first floor of the tomb, the bee pulp hammer, bee pulp bomb, and biochemical hound are the main weapons of the imperial army.

The first to die is the fastest moving skeleton dog, which the biochemical canine culls out of these undead creatures.

The salivary glands of military dogs have undergone deep biochemical modification, and the "saliva" secreted by them is a turbid liquid containing biochemical bee jelly, which is highly toxic to necromantic constructs.

As soon as the military dog bites the skull dog, it can melt it into a small piece, which is extremely efficient in killing enemies.

The second large skeleton that was cleaned up.

This large, undead creature with obvious targets was gathered into a pit by the Imperial army to kill.

The remains of the four large skeletons melted by the bee pulp bomb were piled up more than eight meters high, resembling a small hill, almost touching the ceiling of the first floor of the tomb.

The last to be cleared were the largest number of skeleton soldiers and the crypt lurkers disguised as stone bricks.

As soon as the undead creatures died, their remains buried the entire floor of the tomb.

The soldiers could only move on the bone "carpet", and could not see the stone brick floor under the bone "carpet" at all.

When not a single undead creature was seen on the first floor of the tomb, Commander Sergeant Alvin ordered an air purification device to be installed.

Billowing white mist poured out of the trumpet-shaped nozzles, quickly neutralizing the yellow-green poisonous mist.

When the purifying white mist came into contact with the remains of the undead creatures, a layer of white wax formed on the surface of the bones, turning the bones everywhere into wax sculptures.

Seeing this, Leno raised his eyebrows and inquired about Sergeant Mars.

Only then did he know that the Purifying White Mist was integrated into the "Anti-Undead Resuscitation Complex Enzyme" by MI3, which could delay the recovery of undead creatures to a certain extent.

According to conservative estimates, large skeletons that used to take 3 hours to resuscitate now take at least 5 hours to stand up.

Invisibly, the Imperial army had more time.

Hearing this information, the worry in Li Nuo's heart subsided a little.

This imperial army is indeed prepared, and it should not be so easy to step into the trap of the Necromantic Sect.

...

While the large group was resting on the first floor of the tomb, the four reconnaissance teams set off again.

Li Nuo changed the filter on his breathing mask, nodded to the soldiers beside him, and took the lead in stepping into the stairwell leading to the second floor of the tomb.

Although he has gained a wave of favorability in front of the soldiers in the squad and gained the trust and recognition of the other party, this does not mean that he can violate the military order and get out of the status of a criminal soldier.

What a criminal should do, he still does.

Scout, lure enemies, and take the lead to lure out the crypt lurkers in the shadows.

Dark, alert, and hateful draw the gaze of awakened undead creatures.

Li Nuo fulfilled his responsibilities without complaint.

But this time the situation was different from the last time, and he was not alone in the front.

Sergeant Mars walked side by side with him, introducing the situation on the second floor of the tomb along the way, so that the guilty soldier who had been approved by him could have a little more hope of survival.

"You've got to remember a couple of things, Jarvis."

Sergeant Mars looked warily at the front of the corridor and whispered:

"First, where there are skeleton soldiers, there must be skeleton dogs. Skeleton dogs play the role of cannon fodder, scouts, and vanguard in the undead troops. Pinning down the enemy with Skeleton Dogs and then drowning them with skeletons is a regular tactic of the Necronomicon.

"Second, where there are big skeletons, there must be skeleton soldiers. The Great Skeletons are the elite class of low-level necromantic constructs, with the largest surveillance range and the fastest awakening from their slumber, they are the leader of the skeleton troop and the watcher of a cordoned area.

"Third, the closer you get to the corpse, the stronger the undead creatures are, and the richer the troops. Later, you may encounter enemies such as skeleton archers, metal skeletons, and self-exploding skeletons, so be careful and listen to my orders... I don't want you to die here. ”

"Yes, sir, thank you for reminding me." Li Nuo responded with gratitude, secretly praising the other party's character in his heart.

Sergeant Mars is a nice man, caring for his subordinates, witty, experienced in combat, and charismatic.

At this moment, Li Nuo sincerely hoped that such a character could start well and have a happy ending.

After silently blessing Sergeant Mars from the bottom of his heart, Li Nuo asked curiously:

"By the way, sir, is there a role similar to a medic in the undead class?"

"The undead medics..."Sergeant Mars pondered for a moment, nodded slowly, and said:

"Yes, but that's not an enemy we can reach. I've never seen a so-called undead medic, but I've heard of it.

“... It is said that in the Necromantic Sect, low-level necromantic monks have mastered two different systems of undead summoning methods.

"Generally speaking, these two summoning methods are: the Necromantic Construct Summoning Circle, which summons necromantic constructs, and the Stitching Monster Summoning Circle, which stitches corpse pieces and bones.

"Necro constructs and stitching monsters are the two most common types of undead creatures, and you've already met them, so I don't need to introduce them to you.

"The low-level necromantic monk enchanted two summoning methods to the corpse, and with the help of the corpse's area of influence, he summoned undead creatures on a large scale. The corpse is the medium through which the Necromancer casts summoning spells on a large scale. ”

Sergeant Mars paused:

"So, when a corpse can summon both a necromantic construct and a stitching monster, it must be in the hands of a low-level necromantic monk."

Sergeant Mars led the group around the corner of a staircase and continued:

"The necromancers you mentioned, well, I've heard that healing undead creatures is the magical ability of mid-level necromantic monks, but they don't heal in the same way as we humans.

"A mid-level necromancer can add 'Aggregate Supplies' and 'Death Supplies' effects to his undead creatures..."

As soon as Li Nuo heard the noun that popped out of Mars's mouth, he immediately raised his eyebrows.

Isn't that right?

"Aggregate Supplies" and "Death Supplies" are abilities given to undead creatures by mid-level necromantic monks.

The corpse on the third basement floor of Tomb 1079 is controlled by a mid-level necromancer, not by a low-level necromancer.

Li Nuo thought for a moment or two, patiently waited for Mars to change his words, and then asked:

"So, sir, is there a possibility—there are mid-rank necromancers on the third underground floor?

"This mid-level necromancer gave the undead creature the effects of 'Aggregate Supply' and 'Death Supply', but did not use these two effects.

"The purpose of the mid-level necromantic monk is to paralyze us and underestimate its strength, so as to give us a heavy blow at a critical moment...

"For example, drag us to the third basement floor until the dead on the first and second basement floors are revived, and then use the effects of 'aggregate supplies' and 'death supplies' to block our retreat from the dead on the first and second basement floors, leaving us surrounded by a heavy siege."

Lino's words made Mars stunned.

The experienced sergeant stopped, stood still in deep thought.

The soldiers beside him also heard Li Nuo's words, and they all entered the state of you look at me and I look at you, and they both saw the faint uneasiness in each other's eyes...
