Chapter 25: The Final Node

Running hundreds of meters and jumping over the piles of building debris, Su Nian saw the sarcophagus shown in the map of consciousness.

The three sarcophagi are also placed symmetrically, but next to the sarcophagus there are two skeleton warriors, their bones are full of cracks, wearing broken armor, and the armor on one of the skeleton warriors has fallen off and hangs to the ground, only part of it is still adhered to the body.

Su Nian didn't stop, and rushed straight towards the two skeleton warriors, the serrated knife in his hand setting off a sharp sound of breaking wind.

Click!

The sawtooth knife slashed the head of one of the skeleton warriors, turned around, and used inertia to pull out the sawtooth knife and slash at the other skeleton warrior.

The sound of bones shattering was heard again.

The other skeletal warrior couldn't resist his melee slash, his neck shattered, and his head fell to the ground.

Su Nian, who had killed the two skeleton warriors, did not stop at all, and immediately ran towards the three sarcophagi, and the sawtooth knife in his hand smashed into the coffin lid.

The skeletal warriors from outside the city are pouring into the city, and time is running out for them.

The sawtooth knife in his hand smashed the sarcophagus, destroying all the spiritual patterns on the surface of the sarcophagus.

Before he even had time to break open the sarcophagus and search for the relics stored inside, he ran to the second sarcophagus.

Sweat continued to flow down his forehead, and the hand holding the knife was numb from the violent collision, and he involuntarily trembled slightly, but he still didn't stop moving.

Finally, the spirit pattern on the surface of the third sarcophagus was destroyed, and a cloud of mist rose from the ground.

Su Nian decisively reached out and made contact with the fog mass.

Suddenly, the mist was ignited by the blood-colored flame suspended above his head, turning into a raging blood-colored flame, and the camp prompt also sounded:

[Faction Hint (Purgatory City): Capture the Corrosion Node in Special Scenes (3/5)]

There are two Corrosion Nodes remaining, and if they are successfully captured, the Skeleton Warrior will lose control and will no longer be a threat.

The intense exertion of physical strength made Su Nian's stomach cramp, his muscles were sore, his right arm holding the knife was extremely sore, and the strong feeling of nausea made him want to stop and vomit.

But he didn't choose to stop.

He will never allow himself to fall here.

The hunting feast is once again on, and the map under conscious perception is presented from a bird's-eye view.

At this time, a feeling of dizziness hit, and Su Nian staggered a few steps and barely stood firm.

The opening of the hunting feast requires the consumption of mental power, and it has consumed a lot of his mental power just now, and opening it again makes his spirit become sluggish.

The perceptual map in the spread shrinks.

Just when Su Nian's eyes were about to split, a camp prompt sounded in his mind:

[Faction Hint (Shadow City): Excessive mental consumption, whether to consume blood points instead of mental power to continue to start the hunting feast. 】

Hearing the prompt, Su Nian woke up suddenly.

Without hesitation, he immediately chose to consume blood points.

Killing the cursed dolphin brought him 32 blood points, and after choosing to replace it, wisps of blood overflowed from his pores and flew towards the blood-colored flames above his head, fueling the blood-colored flames to burn violently.

The malaise caused by mental weakness subsided, and the sensory map, which had been gradually shrinking and about to close, spread again.

Su Nian didn't know how long this state could last, and he immediately took the time to scan the gray-white perception map scene.

In the perception map, he saw dense gray dots of light spreading towards the Blood City.

Only flesh and blood beings will show bloody points of light in the Hunt Feast map, and as for these gray points of light, they are obviously the army of bones pouring into the city.

At this time, Su Nian saw two blood-colored points of light that were moving rapidly.

These are obviously the other two figures who have entered the Blood City.

One of the corrosive nodes was not far from them, but it passed by them.

Without establishing a spiritual connection with them, Su Nian was unable to communicate with them through his consciousness, and immediately set off towards the next target location after turning off his perceptual perspective.

Ten minutes later, he came to the vicinity of the fourth node.

This node is also three symmetrically placed sarcophagi, fortunately, there are no skeleton warriors nearby, which can save a lot of physical strength.

Coming to the sarcophagus, Su Nian raised the serrated knife in his hand and smashed it hard.

The successive collisions have caused some wear and tear on the blade surface of the serrated knife, but it does not affect the use, as long as the spirit pattern path on the sarcophagus is broken, the connection between the corrosion node and the scene can be blocked.

Spirit Pattern has its own defense, and it is not easy to destroy.

Every time the sawtooth knife smashed on the surface of the sarcophagus, it splashed a faint point of energy.

It took a lot of effort for him to erase the spirit patterns on the surface of the three coffins.

I saw a brand-new cloud of mist rising from the ground, and Su Nian immediately reached out to make contact with it.

At this time, his body was like a medium for Purgatory City to connect with the scene nodes, and through his body, the blood-colored flames suspended above his head covered the fog and gas masses.

The faction prompt then sounds:

[Faction Tip (Infernal City): Successfully Capture the Corrosion Node in Special Scenes (4/5)]

There is one last node left.

Su Nian gasped, his chest rose and fell violently with the rapid breathing, and his red face was already covered with beads of sweat.

After sitting on the sarcophagus for a short rest, feeling that his strength had recovered slightly, he turned on the perspective of the hunting feast again.

The perspective of consciousness rises out of the physical body, and the perception map spreads outward 360 degrees with him as the center.

At this time, dense gray dots had appeared on the map, spreading rapidly within the Blood City.

This time, it didn't take much time for him to lock on to the node he had just seen, and at this time, three red dots appeared near the node, and in front of the red dots were black and white miniatures of three sarcophagi.

It can basically be concluded that these three figures are Ji Yun and the two human conscription warriors who entered the Blood City one step ahead of them.

In front of them, several gray dots of light were blocking their path, and a large number of gray dots were approaching them.

Turning off the perceptual perspective and feeling that his physical strength had recovered, Su Nian jumped from the sarcophagus with one hand, and ran to the last corroded node in the city after landing steadily.

He had only been running a few steps before he saw four skeletal warriors slowly walking towards him from the corner of the road, dragging their heavy bodies.

Su Nian did not choose to fight head-on, and took the initiative to avoid the skeleton warriors and then made a detour.

After a few minutes of running wildly, Su Nian came to the vicinity of his destination, and his figure passed through a black stone pillar-shaped building that had collapsed most of its side, and he saw three figures in the distance.

Just as he guessed, these three figures were Ji Yun and the other two conscripted soldiers.

At this time, they are fighting the giant skeleton warriors who are blocking their way.

The skeleton warrior blocking the way was more than four meters tall, holding a shield in his left hand and a broken sword in his right hand, and instead of surging black mist in his skull, he was surrounded by a blazing black soul fire, followed by three skeleton warriors.

After focusing his gaze for a few seconds, information about the giant bone warrior came to Su Nian's mind.

【Shield Bone (Elite)】:

Target Introduction: Bone warriors who have been corroded by corrosive energy and blessed by adaptive corrosive power have given birth to a weak sense of autonomy.

Target Value: Soul Fire Mark (Skill Mark), Side Quest Reward.

Strength evaluation: Blackstone four-star

……

Seeing that the combat power evaluation of the shield bone actually reached the four-star of the Black Stone, it was the same level of combat power as the death scarecrow he encountered when he first entered the decaying world.

Su Nianton felt a huge pressure:

"I'm in trouble."
