Chapter 12: Sudden Circumstances

Among them, Murafa was the highest, and his feet exerted strength to stand firm, but in the face of such a situation, he did not even dare to be angry, because he had no doubt that if he was in the center of the explosion, he would not be able to survive at all.

In the Thunder Squad, Charlotte leaned on Demon's arms, her hair was blown into a mess, her small mouth was wide open, and her face was full of horror. And even Demon, who has always been steady, was shocked, not to mention the others.

In front of their eyes, Leo looming in the smoke and dust was simply a terrifying humanoid turret.

The power of the explosion just now was simply beyond imagination, and Demon had only seen it by chance under the full force attack of the top elder of the family.

In fact, even Leo himself didn't expect that a blow with multiple effects would be so powerful, even several times greater than when he broke through the level before.

"It seems that the increase in 'Flame Nova' is very impressive, and this time it can almost reach the level of high-level magic. He thought with great satisfaction.

In the various cries of pain behind, the dust slowly settled, and a gap of nearly five meters appeared in the white mist enchantment, showing the situation inside the canyon.

Gray, blind, eerie, and full of evil, it makes people shudder.

Leo took a closer look, and it was indeed the same as he had guessed before, the self-healing ability of the entire enchantment was very poor, and at the current recovery rate, it would take at least a few days to recover to its original state, and during this period, his side could be completely free to pass.

Outside the deep pit caused by the explosion point, a few ghost fires roamed, as if they were afraid of the power of the explosion just now, and did not dare to step forward.

Leo had excellent eyesight, and immediately saw that it was the soul fire of a low-level skeleton, so he quickly withdrew from the team.

These skeletons aren't tough to deal with, but they're not worth wasting mental energy on your own. It's better to let the melee guys come forward and solve one in a few clicks, which is more cost-effective.

At the same time, Demont recovered from the shock and secretly rejoiced.

He had already seen that Leo was very strong, but he didn't expect it to be so strong, so the possibility of killing the corpse witch was greatly increased.

Suppressing the excitement in his heart, he didn't want to waste time, because he immediately said in a loud voice: "The passage has been opened." Let's go in! Stay in the standard formation, Mr. Tekken, please bless me!"

"No problem!" Iron Fist replied, then whispering something in his mouth.

As if by a sense, the light of holiness fell from the sky, centered on him, and fell on everyone.

"Holy Blessing" can increase the recipient's resistance to evil, and slightly increase strength and agility. As well as the lethality to evil creatures, it is a very practical blessing.

Tolman had never enjoyed such a blessing before, and he suddenly felt that he was full of power and hatred for the necromantic creatures. I can't wait to rush up and tear those bone racks clean. In addition, he has a good conceited strength, and he has not performed anything before, and he is already eager to try at this time.

Demont didn't let him wait any longer. At the sound of the order, the team immediately moved forward and soon reached the point of the explosion.

This time. The cavalry squad did not follow, but guarded the entrances on both sides of the barrier, preventing them from being blocked by some necromantic creature when they left for a while, cutting off their way. If you are trapped in a dark canyon at night, there is a high chance that you will be wiped out.

Sensing the flesh creatures, the skeletons on the other side immediately became agitated, and the deterrence of the explosion just now also decreased. These necromantic creatures affected by negative energy, with only one desire, kill the flesh creatures in front of them and devour them completely.

When the first skeleton moved and attacked, more than a dozen of them rushed up together.

"Click, click, click!"

The sound of the skeletons snapping together was tingling, but Tolman, Demont, and Tekken were not rookies, and they certainly had no fear in the face of skeletons.

Even when Leo was in the apprenticeship stage, he teamed up with Montoya to kill a low-level skeleton, not to mention those of them who were level 5 or 6.

Long swords, short swords, shields, long knives, weapons flew up, bone frames shattered and flew one after another, and in just a few minutes, more than a dozen low-level skeletons were swept away and entered the interior of the canyon. During the whole process, the three people who served in the front row did not even sweat a drop, and they did not use the people in the back row to shoot.

The next path was cleared, and several people crossed the barrier, but as soon as they entered the canyon, they found that the sky was getting darker again.

Leo swept it away, the environment here was not much different from the outside, but the aura of death was several times stronger, almost breathless, and only a very few of the most tenacious plants could survive here.

After a while, Murafa followed after him, and the cavalry had received orders from Demon not to stop them.

However, these people were shocked by Leo's performance and the strong negative energy here, and did not dare to start the search immediately, but followed behind the Thunder Family team, looking like they were going to pick a bargain.

Demont didn't bother to pay attention to it, recalling the information in his mind, and quickly chose a route to lead the team on.

Soon, after the team walked more than 300 meters, Demont suddenly raised his hand and whispered: "Everyone be careful, there may be skeleton guards next!"

"It's already here!" the half-elf with the best eyesight immediately warned.

As if to confirm his words, as soon as the words fell, a "boom" sound came from ahead, and the earth began to shake.

"Prepare to attack according to the attack method determined before!" Demont did not feel the slightest nervousness, put the war knife in his hand in front of him, and took another step forward.

Leo in the back nodded secretly. As the saying goes, it will be a soldier's courage, don't look at it as a small step, but it is this kind of action that can make others feel his determination and confidence, which is very good for the cohesion of the team.

A deep but very loud voice came from the front: "The master doesn't like you!"

Then, a huge figure slowly emerged.

It was a huge monster nearly seven meters tall, it looked like a skeleton of bones, and its body was covered with heavy bone plates, and two dark red soul fires fluttered in the skull, emitting an evil light.

The skeleton guard's stride was extremely large, and in the blink of an eye, it was already close to the distance of more than ten meters from everyone.

"It's an artificially created skeleton guard!"

As soon as Leo's words fell, "Huh!" The sound of breaking through the sky sounded, and at least five meters long bone blades swept over from the right side.

"Iron Fist!" Demon shouted, motioning for Iron Fist to stick to his duty.

"Hey!"

Iron Fist let out a short, low roar. In response, he crouched down, lowered his center of gravity, and hid his entire body behind the rectangular metal shield, obviously intending to resist this blow.

In fact, the Skeleton Guard is not fast, and Iron Fist can dodge it completely. But Dermon had already made arrangements before, and he had to withstand the attack, so that he could have a chance to get close and use the power of the bloodline to strike.

The next moment. The bone blade hits the metal shield.

"Bang!"

A piercing voice came, and under the impact of majestic power, the hearts of other people rose to their throats.

In the next instant, a layer of white light bloomed on the shield of the Iron Fist, which was obviously a divine skill with special defensive capabilities, and he himself, as if he had taken root in the land, actually resisted this powerful blow!

"Good!"

Demon let out a loud cry, taking advantage of the fact that the bone guards could not recover the bone blade for a short time. Rushing forward at breakneck speed, the long knife in his hand stabbed into the bone guard's knee with lightning flashing through it.

The sharp knife broke through the bone armor and continued to penetrate. It didn't reach the hilt.

"Zilala!"

The electric light continued to spread, scorching the joints that were not sturdy.

Then, Demont rose up with his whole body and swung his long knife violently.

"Click!"

The broad joints should be fractured. The skeleton guard loses his balance and falls to the side. However, his attack did not stop there, and instead stepped onto the bones of the guards. Climbed directly to the other person's chest.

The light of the kind knife flashed, and the long knife pierced into the skeleton's bare eye socket with precision.

"Zilala!"

Another burst of lightning burst out, and although it couldn't do much damage to the skull, it directly destroyed its soul that was not condensed.

When it comes to fighting negative energy, lightning does have its own unique effects.

The ghostly fire that glowed with evil light extinguished, and the skeleton guard let out a near-death roar, and the massive bony body completely lost its balance and fell to the ground. And Demont made a vigorous move and landed smoothly.

"It's amazing!" Leo secretly admired in his heart, he had thought that Demon had the ability to fight against the necromantic creatures, but he didn't expect to be able to take out a skeleton guard so easily.

You know, even in the sequence of all necromantic creatures, the strength of the skeleton guard can be ranked in the middle of the stream.

Another discovery made Leo feel a little more at ease, and the original worries dissipated.

Because by all accounts, the skeleton guard was acting on its own instincts, and was not under the control of highly intelligent beings, which meant that the corpse witch did not fully control its abilities, or did not realize the presence of its people.

At this time, a cheer came from the rear.

Seeing the Skeleton Guard being defeated so easily, the motley army was greatly confident. They all have some understanding of Demon's strength, maybe two or three people on their side are not his opponents, but if it is five people, they can definitely take it down.

And Demont alone eliminated the skeleton guards, so the three of them on his side should be fine.

On the other hand, Leo had been observing them for a long time, and when he saw that things were going exactly according to his expectations, he turned around and quietly gave the half-elf a look.

The half-elf immediately understood, smiled, and turned away from the group.

After a while, he walked back with a plant and deliberately asked in a loud tone, "Mr. Mars, look, is this the white mist grass you need?"

Leo took the plant, made a very serious appearance, and observed it for a while before nodding and saying, "That's right, this is the white mist grass I need." ”

"Ten gold coins, then. The half-elf said.

Leo also smiled, and at the same time took out ten gold coins and threw them over: "I'll pay for this one first, you can collect more in the future, and then trade with me together." ”

The gold coin slipped down, making a crisp sound and dazzling light, and the ragtag soldiers behind them suddenly showed their intoxicated eyes, and many of them simply swallowed their saliva.

Murava, of course, noticed this, but he had no idea that it might be a hoax, because no one in the Western Exile would use such a complicated hoax. Here, the most effective things are often just weapons and fists.

Therefore, in the whispers of several of his subordinates, he quickly made up his mind.

Since the skeleton guards are so easy to deal with, there is no need for everyone to gather together on their side, after all, everyone is not here to see the excitement, but to pan for gold.

"Everyone is in a team of three, scattered, looking for something valuable. Murava quickly gave the order.

The ragtag army cheered one after another, and soon divided into more than a dozen three-person squads according to the way they had previously discussed, and their speed was countless times faster than leaving the camp. Clearly, money does have the power to mobilize human potential to a great extent.

Seeing everything in mind, Demont gave Leo a thumbs up and said to the others, "Go ahead, we only have half an hour to find the entrance to the Death Pit." ”

Everyone also knew that time was short, and quickly regained their formation, bypassing the skeleton guards who had extinguished the soul fire, and re-entering the road.

But at this moment, there was a sudden cry not far away.

Demont's heart pounded, and he hurriedly followed the sound, only to find that the cry was actually from the ragtag army that had scattered in all directions.

The next moment, a dense "boom" sounded, and the earth shook, and its intensity was several times stronger than before.

"Oops!" the half-elf's face changed drastically, and for the first time he said very seriously, "Demon, we are in danger. ”

The girl Charlotte was also in danger, but she didn't know what was going on, and immediately asked, "What's wrong?

"No, there's a big crowd of ...... over there," the half-elf gritted his teeth, and under the horrified gaze of everyone, continued, "Skeleton Guard!"

"Didn't I say there were only two heads? These footsteps are at least more than five!" Tormon said, holding the heavy sword in his hand with a grim face.

With a wry smile on his face, De Mont replied, "Please report that there are indeed two ends, and I don't know why there are so many more." ”

"Maybe the corpse witch is going to make some big moves, it's newly created. Leo gave his guess, and then continued: "But it doesn't matter, we have to decide quickly whether to meet it head-on or retreat quickly." ”

Of course, Demont can't be arbitrary in such a major matter, but he is not a person without decision, and immediately said: "Vote, the minority obeys the majority, and those who agree to meet it head-on raise their hands!"

As he spoke, he himself was the first to raise his hand. (To be continued......)
