Chapter 1481 Hao Ren’s Style of Pulling Monsters
The army of the dead lingering in Tartarus is a sight to behold.
No, maybe it shouldn't be called an "army" - because Hades, who once ruled this hell, is dead, and the undead people who were originally controlled by him have also lost control. They were originally an army, but after losing After the supreme rule, the countless undead creatures have become leaderless wanderers, wandering aimlessly in the collapsing wasteland of Tartarus, as blind as insects and ants crawling around.
However, the leaderless army of the dead does not mean that the danger is reduced. On the contrary, precisely because they have lost their unified command, the land is filled with scattered undead creatures, and all roads that could have been safely crossed are Now they are all occupied by wandering dead bodies.
Hao Ren and his party were on a high ground overlooking the situation below. They saw that the plain leading to the "Copper Palace" was full of rickety skeletons and carrion zombies, as well as translucent ghosts of souls. , the number of these seemingly fragile guys can make patients with trypophobia commit suicide on the spot. Hao Ren has no doubt that as long as one undead falls, millions of undead will immediately come after hearing the news. If they could break through forcefully, they would probably be able to break through, but that would undoubtedly consume a lot of physical strength and energy - they haven't even seen the gate of Mount Olympus yet, and they are in Tartarus themselves. Losing eight hundred dollars is really not a wise move.
"Haven't you demon hunters swept through this place once?" Hesiana looked at Hasselblad with a little dissatisfaction, "You even rushed into the Copper Palace and killed Hades - why didn't you clean up the plains? These skeletons?"
"No, my compatriots killed all the undead creatures they encountered," Hasselblad couldn't express his expression, but there seemed to be some helplessness in his eyes, "It's just that half of the undead that were killed got up again."
Hao Ren also noticed some details of the undead creatures at this time: almost all of them were injured, some were missing arms and legs, some were crawling on the ground with only half of their bodies left, and some even had no heads, but a whole body. There are headless corpses wandering on the ground, and there are also many skeletal undead that are simply pieced together to stand up. The bones on their bodies are of different sizes and slanted. If the dark force hadn't forcibly connected those limbs together, they would have been dead. These joints that were forced together may fall apart before movement.
This is an army that was wiped out once and then stood up again.
The sacred magic of the demon hunters has excellent lethality against undead dark creatures, and the undead burned to death by the holy flames can never be resurrected. However, the main mission of the demon hunter army that originally attacked Tartarus was to kill Hades. That's all, so they put all their energy into the Copper Palace. For these cannon fodder-like undead creatures on the plain, they did not waste precious holy water and magic power. They just used silver weapons to temporarily kill them. The result was that after they left After that, about half of the corpses on the battlefield of Tartarus got up again.
Moreover, the corpses on the plain outside the Copper Palace are only a small trouble. The bigger trouble is inside the Copper Palace - there are undead with higher "quality" there.
Hades's palace in the underworld has three layers of walls. Outside these three layers of bronze walls is the plain of corpses, and within the walls is the true residence of the Lord of the Underworld. This space failed as a product of the Olympus "gods" to open up their homeland, but it was successful as a "graveyard" for testing necromancy and collecting soul power. Hades was sent to guard this out-of-control world. In the laboratory, he naturally has his own way of spending time. For thousands of years, he studied his forbidden spells day and night in the Copper Palace. The corpses and souls of various creatures were his experimental materials. He created countless powerful or disgusting undead creatures, and then made these monsters They were placed as guards throughout his palace.
Outside the triple city wall are ordinary undead with no novelties, but inside the city wall are the "experiments" created by Hades himself.
Even though those experimental subjects were killed once by the demon hunters, they were still quite powerful.
But this is still the best way to get to the "godly domain" of Olympus.
"I can use blood magic to temporarily cover the breath of the living," Hesiana looked at everyone, "This way we can at least hide these ordinary undead on the plains. After entering the Copper Palace, there will not be enough undead on the plains outside. For fear of it, they don’t dare to enter the Temple of Hades—even if Hades is dead.”
"A good idea, but there is still a problem." Hao Ren spread his hands in confusion, "You can try putting some blood magic on me."
Hesiana didn't know why, but Hao Ren took the initiative to let her "biu" and she was quite happy, so a non-lethal ball of blood condensed from her hand and hit Hao Ren in the face: "This is You let me smash it yourself...ah?"
The ball of blood dissipated in mid-air without even touching Hao Ren's face.
The little bat spirit was completely shocked: "Your face is actually enchanted?!"
Hao Ren almost choked on his bronchus with a mouthful of blood: "It's your face that's enchanted! I'm just physically immune to magic, at least to Vivian's series of magic, not to mention your blood magic, even Vivian's The ultimate move that I have suppressed by reading the message myself is useless to me - so far, the only one of her powers that I cannot completely resist is the red moon, and all magic with levels below the red moon are useless."
The little bat spirit was immediately confused: "Let me go - where did your setting like the Son of Noodles come from?!"
Hao Ren looked innocent: "Can you blame me for the talent points you were born with?"
Hesiana was confused: "Then we can only rush through the sea of the dead... There may be a chance if the pig advances suddenly..."
However, Hao Ren thought about it and had another plan: "No, I have a better plan."
Suddenly, even little Hesiana, who had been following the adults obediently and being a good baby, cast curious eyes over.
"You used shadow magic to cover up and sneaked into the Copper Palace. I couldn't hide anyway, so I ran directly to the great plain to attract hatred and help you distract as many skeletons and zombies as possible - finally we met at the main entrance of the Copper Palace. .”
Hesiana never expected that Hao Ren would have this plan. Her eyes widened immediately and she looked at Hao Ren as if he were an alien: "You actually have such courage?"
Hao Ren was immediately choked by the little bat spirit's words asking for beatings and rolled his eyes. But Lily still had some conscience: "No, landlord, this is too dangerous! You alone are no match for so many undead - they are swarming You have to kneel when you come up!"
Hao Ren chuckled and waved his hand: "Don't worry, I have my own arrangements."
Seeing that Lily's face was still full of worry, Hao Ren could only explain with a serious expression: "I do have a way to break through - but I can't do it with you. Let me make it clear, I can do it alone. To cross this plain is like entering an uninhabited land, but you may not be able to bear my method..."
Seeing the confident expression on Hao Ren's face, Lily and Hasselblad couldn't help but believe it, while Hesiana curled her lips: "Tch, it sounds like the real thing when you blow it."
Although he said this, the expression on the little bat spirit's face clearly showed that he believed it.
The plan was finalized.
Hasselblad, Hesiana and others quickly made preparations. The four people gathered together. Then the little bat spirit chanted a spell, and a black-red light curtain suddenly rose out of thin air, covering the four people, and then gradually disappeared. .
There seemed to be no change, but in Hao Ren's perception, everyone's heartbeat, body temperature, and breathing had become invisible, and even the inexplicable "breath of life" had become ethereal.
He shuddered. Before, it was okay to have his friends standing around him, but now the four friends have turned into "fake undead". When he closed his eyes, he felt like he was standing in a morgue...
"How was the effect?" Hesiana glanced at Hao Ren proudly.
Hao Ren nodded, sincerely convinced: "Totally dead."
Hesiana: "..."
Under the cover of blood magic, the four people carefully walked down the high ground and headed towards the plain filled with undead.
Under Hao Ren's nervous gaze, the undead actually ignored the few "living people" who came to them, allowing Hesiana and her entourage to walk through the territory of skeletons and zombies.
Hao Ren nodded, took a deep breath, turned his head and looked in another direction, and at the same time took out two plasma hand cannons from his portable space.
Looking at this dark world filled with dead souls and skeletons, representing the end of the mythical era, he sighed with emotion:
"Grandchildren!!"
"boom!!"
Hearing the earth-shattering explosion coming from behind, the four people under the cover of the "Blood Canopy" spell couldn't help but stop. Hesiana looked back in the direction she came from, but only saw a small flower. A small mushroom cloud was rising into the sky, and the mushroom cloud was filled with countless rotten limbs and skeletal fragments that had been blown away.
The entire sea of undead on the plain was alarmed by the sudden movement. After a while, countless undead groups gathered and began to stagger towards the direction of the explosion.
Hesiana frowned. Although her relationship with Hao Ren was never good, she couldn't help but worry about it at this time - probably Hao Ren's heroic act of "luring the enemy alone" finally made this paranoid little bat Her spirit was touched, so she finally spoke: "Is that guy sure he's okay?"
This time, Lily, who was very worried before, was not worried at all: "It's okay, it's okay, the landlord is great."
"Then you tried hard to stop him just now?"
"Oh, but if the landlord says it's okay, then it must be okay."
Hesiana was dumbfounded and speechless by this husky spirit's simple and straightforward thinking process.
What a happy guy with a simple mind.
Suppressing all the thoughts in her heart, Hesiana once again focused on the matter in front of her. She carefully maintained the effect of the blood canopy and led the team towards the pure copper palace standing at the highest point of Tartarus. .
