Chapter 107 The Grief-Stricken Death Knight
Rubin was not particular, and Caroline was mysterious. After a battle, Mu Hua and Taibesha left the group.
"Mu Hua, it's too late. It's not safe here. We should go back."
In a ruin in the Dead Sea Basin, Taibesha leaned against the wall, sitting on the ground bored, and said to Mu Hua who was observing through the vision of a blind raven.
After countless years of invasion, the ruins in front of him still have traces of artificial carving.
Not all courtyards are primitive and wild. In addition to the development and construction of monsters, many courtyards also have ruins of civilizations that have been ruined for a long time.
The essence of the courtyard is the fragments of the world, and the ruins where Taibesha is now may belong to a city in a certain world and a certain race before it was destroyed by monsters.
In the city buried in nature, the wide roads have become bush paths, and the collapsed buildings are like wind-eroded hills.
The former civilization has disappeared with time, and only some weathered rocks with steel and metal buried in them show their unnatural side here weakly.
"Don't worry, it's almost done. Summon the Skeleton General twice more. That stupid Death Knight is actually in his true form. Demolish it, and then we'll go home." Mu Hua opened his eyes, with a little excitement on his face, and said to Taibesha.
"Ah~~" Taibesha sighed.
Although there is no shared vision, she knows that somewhere far away from this hiding place, the Skeleton General summoned by Mu Hua is probably fighting with a group of undead.
Taibesha is bored. It's boring to hunt demons with Mu Hua because her cousin has taken stealing to the extreme.
Hiding in a safe corner, throwing summoned beasts into the enemy's nest one by one, is it great to have more summoned beasts?
Not to mention, this style of play is surprisingly useful when facing monsters that lack detection capabilities.
It was just that Mu Hua was having fun stealing chickens, and Taibesha felt that she had nothing else to do except squatting beside Mu Hua and eating fruits with him.
"Ton~Ton~Ton~" Mu Hua raised his head and drank half a bottle of magic potion.
"Cousin, it's not good to drink too much magic potion." Taibesha looked at Mu Hua unhappily. She had long felt that Mu Hua's magic power exceeded the standard. If he had no magic power, he could go home.
"Don't worry, I only drink one bottle a day." Mu Hua showed Taibesha a mouthful of white teeth in a slightly flattering way, trying to soothe Taibesha's irritable mood.
Of course, Mu Hua would not tell Taibesha that his clothes were only a little damaged at the moment, and with the support of the Purgatory Armor, he could fight the death knight here until the end of time before he was naked.
"Ah~~" Taibesha sighed softly. She really hoped that a headless knight would come, the kind of undead who could sense living beings in a large area, and would definitely make Mu Hua run away quickly.
The two had already parted ways with Rubin and the others, and the adventurers who joined the battle temporarily certainly could not follow Rubin and his party.
After cleaning up the battlefield and evaluating the benefits, Rubin paid the helpers on the spot.
With nearly 200 helpers, Rubin was not stingy, and Taibesha also gave 300 demon coins.
Taibesha's combat power was outstanding among the adventurers, and Mu Hua played a more important role on the battlefield.
The two were paid relatively high, but because there were no casualties in this battle, the others turned a blind eye to the fact that Mu Hua had stolen a staff.
After everyone cleaned up the battlefield, Mu Hua began to collect corpses on the battlefield.
Although it was unexpected that Mu Hua was actually an alchemist, the act of collecting Mu Hua's bones and dregs still made everyone look weird.
Yes, there were artillery and corpse explosions, and after the battle, there were really not many intact bones. Mu Hua simply collected all the broken limbs and arms on the ground into the Burning Source Furnace.
People only saw Mu Hua scattering the soul light everywhere, walking and scattering it. After a circle, the original battlefield of bones was only a dusty ground.
All kinds of environmental protection, all kinds of saving.
The so-called soul light is often used by alchemists to dismantle the corpses of monsters.
Although alchemists have soul spaces, they are usually unwilling to stuff things into their soul spaces.
And Mu Hua cleaned the battlefield so thoroughly that no one had ever heard of an alchemist who would risk his life like this.
Well, it’s okay to say it’s risking his life, and it’s also okay to say it’s embarrassing. However, after a smelting, Mu Hua did get some gains.
Most of the magic cores in the sea of undead bones were destroyed in the corpse explosion. Without the magic cores, it seems that skill stones and hundred-refining secret stones cannot be refined.
There were no pleasing stones, but Mu Hua did get nearly a thousand units of "bone ashes".
It is impossible to refine a skeleton with one unit of bone ashes, but it is no problem to use it to refine a thigh bone of a skeleton warrior.
This kind of bone can be used to make constructed undead, can also be used to derive undead, and can even be used to make bones of magical life.
Many necromancers will collect monsters' bones to extract bone ashes. Normally, it will take a month to refine a thousand units of bone ashes.
If they are used to refine high-quality bones and put on the market, they will also be sought-after high-end goods.
In this world, it is hard to say whether knowledge is power, but it is definitely money. . .
Also because of the corpse explosion, the soul fragments of the undead specialty could not be melted, but Mu Hua still harvested a small amount of philosopher's stones and thirty attribute crystals.
Twenty-five physical crystals, five intelligence crystals, and attribute crystals were credited, which is much more than the devil's blood. As for the eyes of others? Mu Hua completely ignored it.
After cleaning the battlefield like a locust passing through, the magic stones of the black-armored skeleton general and the death knight gave Mu Hua a small surprise.
The two magic stones of the black-armored skeleton general gave Mu Hua a skeleton summoning skill stone, and the magic stone of the death knight gave Mu Hua a skeleton summoning and a riding skill.
There is no need to say much about riding, but after the skill stone is used, it is actually integrated into the skeleton summoning, and the Hundred Refining Secret Stones required to increase the level of the skeleton summoning have increased.
However, the skeleton summoning skill stone also made Mu Hua quite concerned.
Although it is a bit tricky that 23 Skeleton Summoning Skill Stones are needed to upgrade the LV23 Skeleton Summoning, at least the clear source of Skeleton Summoning has been found.
After separating from Rubin and others, Mu Hua dragged Taibesha to continue hunting in the Dead Sea Basin.
After discovering that the undead here lacked detection ability, he began to hide and throw summoned beasts.
"Skeleton Summoning!" Twenty skeleton generals emerged from the pale magic circle again.
Taibesha looked at Mu Hua weakly. Three were missing, probably still outside to attract the attention of some undead.
My cousin was very cunning. He hid and released summoned beasts, and did not forget to leave cannon fodder to attract the enemy's attention.
I saw Mu Hua with an excited face, and a group of skeleton generals carried giant swords and took thief steps. After a moment, they found the direction, ran away with a grunt, and disappeared from Taibesha's sight.
The boring wait, in the silence, the roar of the dead could be heard faintly.
Catching a snow pear thrown by Mu Hua, Taibesha threw it back in a bad mood.
She had eaten enough magic fruit today!
Wanted to go out for a walk, but was worried about being exposed. Wanted to meditate, but the environment was not conducive to meditation.
Until Mu Hua summoned the skeleton general twice, the sky began to darken, and finally Mu Hua called Taibesha to say that he was done.
Monday walked in front to open the way, bypassing several difficult ruins, Taibesha followed Mu Hua to a relatively spacious grassland.
The withered yellow weeds are the characteristics of the courtyard of the dead, and the grassland is very flat. Perhaps it used to be a square for people to rest in the prosperous city?
At this time, this trampled grassland is miserable when you look closely.
The ground was full of broken bones and ghost fires scattered everywhere, and the broken skeletons were crawling on the ground. There were only five skeleton generals with intact limbs on the whole grassland.
And these five broken skeleton generals were hacking and smashing around a death knight who was lying on the ground.
Messy, miserable, and spooky.
There should have been a large group of skeleton undead gathered here, with a number of about 400 individuals.
The reason why it is said in general terms is that some skeletons that are not completely dead are crawling around, and it is difficult to confirm the exact number of messy skeletons.
A group of skeleton undead gathered by the death knight.
Although most of them are low-level skeleton warriors, because of the existence of the death knight, this group of undead was originally a group that Mu Hua could never afford to provoke.
And after Mu Hua repeatedly deployed summoned beasts remotely.
The miscellaneous soldiers were cleared, the black-armored skeleton general was exhausted and dragged down, and the death knight finally had to face the siege of the skeleton generals and was finally pulled off the warhorse.
Monsters usually don't want to descend in their true form, because it's easy to come, but it's not so easy to return to hell.
They come to the courtyard to collect the energy needed for growth and evolution. Facing the unknown, they are poor enough to risk descending in their true form.
It stands to reason that the Death Knight shouldn't be too poor. If he hadn't been killed too many times, he might have been thrown into the descending magic circle by some existence.
No matter what the reason is, this guy descended in his true form, which also brought more passion to Mu Hua.
"Skeleton summon!"
The skeleton generals who surrounded and beat the Death Knight dissipated, and twenty-three intact skeleton generals appeared on the grassland again with tower shields.
"Human~~!" When the skeleton generals rushed forward, the Death Knight, who had exhausted his blood and broken his calf, roared in grief and anger.
Facing the ruined battlefield, Taibesha was speechless, and Mu Hua excitedly instructed his family to let the undead who were not yet dead return to silence.
Mu Hua himself quickly cleaned up the battlefield.
