Chapter Twenty-Eight: Escape from the Fortress
On the third day after the stars and the others came to the front line, Dijon, who was observing the sea of skeletons, suddenly turned around and looked at Youdan, "You are keeping an eye here, don't let anyone else get close." Then he slipped into the tent on the city wall, and at the same time a voice came, "Stars and Blood Dance, come in, I have something to say." ”
The two men who were chatting stopped and entered the tent.
Xingchen entered the tent, but saw Dick and turned to look at Dijon, "This is?"
Dijon explained: "I secretly summoned him, and he has been hiding in this makeshift tent. ”
The stars then understood why Dijon didn't let them near the tent today, especially Yodan.
Dijon continued: "Dick, speak up!"
Dick then spoke, "During the time I came, I looked at the situation outside through the eyes of my master, and I discovered something. The necromancers outside have been set up by special means, and after they die, they will not immediately collapse, but will merge into the ground under their feet, and it is believed that soon, the land here will be corroded and assimilated, and there will be ghostly spiritual power everywhere, becoming a paradise for the necromancers. ”
As soon as these words came out, the anger suddenly became solemn. Netherworld spiritual power, the stars have seen it, this thing cannot be used as a source of spiritual power for cultivators. Once a cultivator's spiritual energy is exhausted, if he forcibly absorbs the spiritual power of the Netherworld, the consequences will be unimaginable.
At this time, Dijon sighed, "We must get out of here as soon as possible." ”
Before the words fell, there was silence again, it was not easy to leave, there were many saint-level powerhouses in this front-line fortress, and it was a difficult thing to leave the fortress just under their noses.
Even if they leave, once the people in the fortress find out, those three hundred magic crystal cannons are not vegetarian.
After a while, Xingchen finally spoke, "Now I can only try to save myself, wait for the fortress to be breached, and then wait for the opportunity to escape." ”
Di Rong shook his head, "Because of the Beast Warrior Inheritance, I am not affected by the Nether Aura, but what about you and Blood Dance?"
Xingchen smiled, "It's easy. ”
Time passed quickly, and soon seven days passed, and the air was already filled with ghostly aura. Some people who take the risk of absorbing the ghost aura become more irritable and more aggressive.
Some mercenaries began to quarrel because of a quarrel, and even went straight to the ground. The more you do it, the greater the aura consumption, but here, the aura of the Deer Chasing Realm itself is already very thin. A large amount of Spectre Aura is absorbed by the brawlers, who are even more frantic and even attack those who have nothing to do with it, and even the good ones participate in the chaos.
On the three floors of the fortress, there was chaos, and the dead and wounded began to appear.
At this time, in front of Xingchen, four mercenaries led by the rat-eyed mercenaries stood in front of Xingchen, "Boy, I'm here to take revenge, you'd better not ask someone for help." ”
Xingchen smiled, "Yes." Then the figure flashed, and the four mercenaries flew out directly in four directions, some crashed into the defensive light curtain, some crashed into the battlements, some directly planted into the crowd that was fighting, and the last one hit a magic crystal cannon.
After dealing with a few minions sent to the door, Xingchen looked at Youdan, "Don't let anyone else get close." After saying that, he stopped paying attention to those people, and looked out of the fortress with Dijon, looking for a way out.
After a period of chaos, the upper echelons of the fortress finally appeared, twenty saint-level powerhouses. One of them, a middle-aged man in blue armor, directly scolded: "Stop the brawl immediately, otherwise you will be killed." ”
Most of the people who didn't fall into madness stayed away from the brawl arena, and those who had lost their minds and fallen into madness were still shooting.
These twenty saint-level masters finally made a move, and some of them were directly killed. But as soon as they started it, they also realized the problem. In the end, half a day later, in order to maintain the combat power of the fortress, a large number of medium-grade spirit stones were issued to supplement their own spiritual energy.
But the spectral aura was everywhere, and soon another group of people were infiltrated, and as time went on, group after group of people fell into madness, and the number of awake people in the fortress slipped to one-third of what it was originally. The rest of the people, as the elite of the mercenaries, all have their own methods to prevent harmful auras from seeping in. Some people who have thunder attribute aura, there are small thunderbolts everywhere inside the body to counteract the ghostly aura, etc., and the power of the five elements has some small skills, as long as they are mastered, they can be temporarily unaffected by the ghostly aura.
Finally, the order to retreat was given to the upper echelons of the fortress. One order after another was given.
Three hundred magic crystal cannons were concentrated and fixed on one side of the fortress, and most of the mercenaries were concentrated at the gate of the city, led by ten saint-level powerhouses. Behind them, more than a hundred shuttles lined up, but there was only the driver on it. And the four of Xingchen are still the magic crystal cannon squad, using the magic crystal cannon on the city wall,
Finally, under an order, three hundred magic crystal cannons emitted pillars of light together, and after a salvo, a fan-shaped path was cleared, although there were still many powerful necromancy on this road, but compared to other places, it was more suitable for breaking through.
The city gate was opened, and the mercenaries, led by ten saint-level powerhouses, rushed along the center of the fan-shaped road and attacked in the distance.
And the magic crystal cannon on the city wall still fires in turn, maintaining the existence of a fan-shaped road.
Under the cover of concentrating three hundred magic crystal cannons, the retreat was very smooth, although a large part of the mercenaries transferred this time were the strength of the acquired realm, and the worst speed among them was fifty meters in an instant.
Finally, after nearly sixty breaths of charge, they finally broke out of the Sea of Skulls after losing a small number of people.
After they rushed out, everyone who was using the magic crystal cannon, including the ten saint-level powerhouses who stayed behind, threw down the magic crystal cannon and rushed towards the shuttle.
After loading, the shuttles rushed out of the city gate, and although the fan-shaped road outside had disappeared, they still rushed out without hesitation. After losing half of them, they finally left the Skull Sea.
And the gates of the city were wide open, and a large number of dead souls poured in.
At this time, four figures walked out of a tent on a city wall, Star, Blood Dance, Dijon, and Dick.
The first thing Xingchen did after he appeared was to quickly disassemble the base fixture of the magic crystal cannon next to him, and after three breaths, the magic crystal cannon was completely packed into the storage ring, and then rushed to another magic crystal cannon.
Looking at the busy Xingchen, Blood Dance walked over and asked, "Xingchen, what are you doing here?"
Xingchen didn't stop, and replied while dismantling: "The Holy Wind Mercenary Regiment is lacking this magic crystal cannon, and I have no way to buy it." ”
The magic crystal cannon is basically in service in the army, but some old magic crystal cannons can be sold to other forces such as mercenary groups. The forces that are qualified to buy these magic crystal cannons must be inextricably linked to the military. Just like the Youlian Mercenary Group, it belongs to the Youlian Family, and the Youlian Family controls most of the cities in the northern part of the Blood Sea Country, so it naturally controls a part of the army, and the magic crystal cannons eliminated by these armies are the first to be sold to the Youlian Mercenary Group.
Although Xingchen has some relationship with the army of Fuguang Town, Fusu City, Yanhuang State, the army generals at the town level do not have the right to sell military goods.
Blood Dance understood what Xingchen meant, "I'll help you." Saying that, she has begun to help Xingchen disassemble, although she only dismantled the base of a magic crystal cannon in about ten breaths, but it has always had some results.
Dijon looked at the growing number of undead in the fortress and walked towards a crystal cannon and waved his hand, and Dick joined in the work of disassembling the base of the crystal cannon.
Soon, some of the necromancers rushed to the walls, but ignored the four of them. Because of the four of them, Dick is a necromancy, while Dijon has the armor of a beast warrior and is able to use the Nether Aura to disguise himself.
As for the stars and blood dance, they all have the ice and fire spirit hive model built in their bodies, and in the past few days, the ice and fire spirit hive has absorbed a lot of ghost spirit energy, and they can also use the ghost spirit energy to disguise themselves.
Despite this, there were still a number of low-intelligence necromancers following the four of them curiously.
Finally, after a busy half a quarter, the entire three hundred magic crystal cannons were all collected by the stars.
As soon as Di Rong wanted to speak, he saw Xingchen pulling the blood dance and disappearing directly into the pile of death, so he could only release his mind to find Xingchen and said, "Dick and I are waiting for you here." ”
The stars moved quickly through the pile of necromancers, and soon came to a gate where a large number of undead were gathering and were blocked out.
The star who came here kicked directly at the gate, but the gate only moved a little. The hordes of necromancers watched the movement of the stars, mistaking them for an enemy inside the gate, and attacked the gate one after another.
After the attack lasted for a while, there was a bang, and the gate collapsed, and a large number of necromancers rushed into it.
And Xingchen looked at Blood Dance, "Where is the core array of your Blood Sea Country's City Defense Array?"
Inside the gate, Blood Dance pointed to a blue and gold throne, "Generally under the City Lord's throne." ”
Xingchen smiled, "Good. Then he rushed straight up, and the Star Sword appeared, directly attacking the Blue Gold Throne.
The surrounding necromancers followed suit, and finally under the continuous attack, the defenses on the throne were destroyed. After that, Xingchen released a powerful momentum, scared off many dead spirits, walked to the throne and gently pushed, under the throne, a circular array disk appeared, but there was also a black metal ball placed near the circular array.
Seeing them, Xingchen's face showed a look of joy, it was a spirit bomb. Although it had been activated, it was not difficult for him, and under the manipulation of several spiritual qis, the activation state was canceled, and the array disk was put away by him along with the spiritual explosion bomb.
The spirit explosion bomb is a pitch-black round ball on the outside, the size of an orange, but the internal structure is complex, and the core is a superb spirit stone. The complex structure of the Spirit Explosive Bomb can instantly explode the energy of the top-grade spirit stone at the core, causing a huge shock wave and easily destroying a fortress. There are two ways to detonate, one is the intention to detonate, after activating the three-breath time, it can be detonated according to the user's mind, and the other is the delayed detonation, which sets the time after activation, and when the time is up, it will be automatically detonated.
The upper echelons of the fortress that escaped, the time set to leave this spirit explosion bomb was six hours, and it was estimated that it was a powerful necromancer who wanted to invade and occupy this place. After all, necromancy doesn't deactivate Spectral Bombs.
When Xingchen got the core array disk, the protective light curtain that protected the fortress disappeared. A large number of ghosts flying in the sky flew into the castle.
A short time later, a powerful death dragon appeared, carrying four figures and disappearing into the sky.
At this moment, at the edge of the Hessian Sea, thirty miles away from the abandoned fortress here, a purple qi figure was leading three black qi figures to confront more than twenty powerful necromancy.
The Silent Sea they encountered was among the powerful necromancers, and at this time he had become a real necromancer, with average strength among the more than twenty necromancers, but as a hero, he was standing beside the leader.
The leader was a golden skeleton with a black broadsword, and he was staring at the purple figure.
The purple qi on the purple qi figure slowly dissipated, revealing a white-clothed man with a white mask, who was none other than Xingluo. Xingluo turned around slightly, saw the dragon flying away from a hundred miles away, and finally spoke, "Necromancy, you can go, please!"
The golden skeleton didn't act, "My subordinates told me that you are a demon soldier desolate, the public enemy of the deer realm, why do you want to save the people in the fortress?"
Xingluo laughed maniacally, "I'm willing." ”
The golden skull couldn't bear it anymore, he had been blocked by Xingluo for an hour, and said angrily: "Silent sea, give it to me." ”
The silent sea immediately flew out and turned into a black cloud, shrouding the stars.
Xingluo looked at the attacking black cloud, sneered, stretched out his right index finger, and pointed at the void, a purple ball of light appeared, flying into the black cloud.
Almost instantly, the black cloud vanished, and all of it was absorbed by the purple ball of light.
And the silent sea is still cruel, his arms are dancing, and the black clouds he created disappears, and he didn't notice it for the first time, so he still keeps moving. When he found out, his arm swung awkwardly into the air twice and flew back. The tricks are easily broken, what attack does he take.
After retracting the purple ball of light, Xingluo smiled, "You guys have this ability, it's best to go back quickly." ”
When the golden skeleton heard this, he was full of anger, and he waved his hand directly and rushed over with everyone under his command.
Behind Xingluo, the two figures on the left and right emitted a hundred and ten black chains, beckoning towards the necromancer. And the figure in the middle is shrouded in a phoenix bathed in demonic fire, and the phoenix wings are fanned, and monstrous flames appear.
Black chains and monstrous flames temporarily trapped the undead.
And Xingluo's figure soared, and when it grew to three hundred zhang, the barren sword in his hand smashed down. All the dead were badly wounded and fell to the ground.
Xingluo regained his size, walked in front of the seriously injured golden skeleton, and said indifferently, "What level of strength is your strength in the Netherworld?"
The Golden Skull looked at Xingluo in fear, "Ninety-ninth on the Nether List. ”
Xingluo walked further, "Then why are you the only one coming?"
The golden skull shuddered, "Because the passage is not stable enough, I also took a risk to come here." ”
Xingluo casually picked up the black broadsword, and with a wave of his hand, a sword flew out, and countless trees cut it off, "Dare to ask, how can I make the passage more stable?"
The Golden Skull looked at the endless sea of necromancy, "As long as the land that has been corroded and assimilated by us is wider, the more stable the passage will be. ”
When Xingluo heard this, he smiled, "I see. After speaking, he directly swung out a knife, and a demigod-level tiger-headed skeleton was directly killed.
The golden skeleton shouted, "No, you can't!"
Xingluo looked at the Golden Skull, "Did you stop me because you wanted to die for them?" The Golden Skull didn't answer, and sat down on the ground.
Xingluo continued to slaughter the remaining necromancers with the black broadsword, and with each kill, the extent of the earth's corrosion and assimilation skyrocketed by a certain distance.
When they finally stopped, there were only three demigod necromancy, the Golden Skull, the Silent Sea, and a ghost that radiated Nether Fire.
Xingluo threw the black broadsword to the golden skull, "Remember, it's all your credit. Let's go!"
The Golden Skull and the Silent Sea were bound by two black figures and flew into the air. Xingluo, who just wanted to leave, turned to look at the figure shrouded in phoenix flames, and said with a smile: "The remaining one is yours." ”
After they left, black gas burst out, enveloping the ghost of Nether Fire.
Not long after, in the middle of the Hessian Sea, in front of a black vortex, five figures appeared. Xingluo, who was the leader, beckoned, "Send one over and say hello." ”
As soon as the words fell, the silent sea was thrown down.
After it fell into the black vortex, Xingluo shot out a finger of spiritual energy, hitting the Silent Sea.
The ghostly spiritual power of Silent Sea's whole body overflowed, merging into the black vortex. And he himself crosses the vortex and enters another world.
The black vortex blessed with a huge amount of ghost power has doubled in size.
Looking at the vortex under his feet, Xingluo laughed.
The golden skeleton stared at Xingluo and exclaimed, "You are the devil, you are the devil. ”
Xingluo turned to look at the golden skeleton and sneered, "I'm not a devil, I'm a demon, and you will be the first necromantic under me." As he spoke, he stretched out his hand and pulled out the golden soul fire of the golden skull, condensing a heart demon tree seed in his hand and melting into the fire.
When the golden soul fire returned to the golden skull again, the golden bone fire on its body soared, and when it subsided again, a blonde warrior appeared there, and after seeing the surrounding situation, he bowed to Xingluo.
At this moment, terrifying energy fluctuations rose from the black vortex, and a more powerful necromantic was about to appear.
The perspective suddenly turned, and on the edge of the Youlian Mountain Range, a flying boat stopped in the air, and Xingchen and Dijon each sat on one side of the table, raising their glasses to say goodbye. As for Blooddance and Dick, one is standing on the back side of the ship, and the other has long since returned to the Netherworld.
Xingchen raised a glass of wine, "Dijon, what are you going to do when you go back this time?"
Dijon drank his drink and said, "Go back to Little Rock Mountain and wait for the man's final instructions." What about you?" his mission is not in this world, and he can't help it, I hope that person doesn't care.
Xingchen also drank the drink and said, "I'll go back to Fusu City first, and then come back to continue to track down the whereabouts of the other enemies." ”
Dijon sighed, "That's right, you're not like me, my parents died in a battle, and there is only one enemy." And your parents died in a war, and it wasn't the power of one person to make the war happen. I don't have anything for you, so I'll give you this thing. As he spoke, he took out a bell and placed it in front of the stars.
The bell that can block the positioning device, Xingchen did not accept it immediately, "You give it to me, what are you going to do? After all, it was the person who gave it." ”
Dijon smiled rarely, "It's okay, besides, this thing suits you very well." In fact, this bell is called the Wind and Thunder Covering Heaven Bell, which can cover the heavens, and shielding and positioning the spiritual weapon is just a small function of it. My beast armor inheritance itself has the ability to cover the heavens, so I don't need it, so it's more suitable for you. ”
Despite Di Rong's words, Xingchen was still unwilling to accept it, after all, this was the thing of that terrifying purple figure, and if he took it away, it would definitely affect Di Rong.
Di Rong directly picked up the wine jug, got up and said, "This drunken immortal wine belongs to me." Stars, goodbye. After speaking, he turned into a golden light and disappeared.
Xingchen got up and looked at the slowly disappearing golden light, looked down at the wind and thunder covering the sky bell on the table, and said in a low voice: "Dijon, thank you." ”
Sensing Dijon's departure, Blood Dance walked over to the stars, "Where are we going?"
"Fusu City. ”
