Little Lord's Dark Castle

Chapter 309 Cleaning up the bones and undead
Friday didn't keep Chu Xin waiting too long, and it rushed over to the Lich Ruins as soon as it got the order.

About an hour later, Chu Xin waited for Friday's undead army.

During this period, everyone in the basement did not enter the relic space to clean up the skeletons and undead. Both Bingmeng and Atfield are hurrying to recover.

After a rest, Bingmeng and Atfield, whose mana had been severely depleted, recovered most of their mana, just waiting for a new wave of exploration to begin.

Inside the relic space, the skeletons and undead gathered at the entrance gradually dispersed because they had not found the enemy for a long time.

They are bound by the space of the ruins, and they cannot escape from the space of the ruins, and come from the entrance to the land of darkness.

But Chu Xin still took precautions in this regard. The grass group has been guarding here. As long as there are skeletons and undead who dare to take the lead, they will definitely be killed immediately.

The army of undead under Friday's command has been reduced by nearly half compared to the original one.

Those Green Goblin Skeletons summoned in the Green Goblin Tribe, under the leadership of the Skeleton General, escorted the spoils of the Goblin Tribe back to the territory first.

Accompanying them are undead knights who are not easy to move in the forest, as well as teams such as corpse monks and iron-clad zombies who move slower.

What is left now is mainly infantry regiments composed of black warriors, skeleton warriors, skeleton archers, and skeleton spear throwers. There are probably more than 500 left in the whole.

It is definitely incomparable with the overwhelming skeletons and undead in the relic space, but the quality is excellent, and the combat quality is far stronger than the skeleton undead.

Chu Xin didn't plan to clean it up in one wave. From the number of skeletons and undead displayed on the plain, it was obviously not a task that could be completed in a short time.

According to the sun slanting west at this time, it is definitely impossible to return to the territory tonight. No one can say how long it will take to explore the Lich ruins.

Regarding this issue, it was expected when it came out, and everything that should be explained to the Galaxy has been explained.

Even if Chu Xin is not in the territory these two days, the overall operation of the territory will continue to operate according to his ideas, and there will be no stagnation.

The team assembled quickly and got ready one by one.

Atfield, on the side, showed a strong willingness to enter this time, saying that he would not wait outside, so he must go in and see for himself.

This is the laboratory of the Crazy Lich, a place that he dreamed of exploring, if he were to guard it outside, it would be more uncomfortable than killing him.

"You go in, what about the entrance? If there is danger inside, how do we get back?" Chu Xin asked a question. He didn't have to leave Atfield outside, but the back road must be guaranteed.

At present, the inside of the ruins space only knows how to open the entrance from this side. After opening, you can walk freely on both sides, but after this side is closed, how to open and return from that side is a problem.

If the exploration team is locked in the relic space and cannot return, it will be a lot of fun, so Chu Xin must ensure that someone outside can open the entrance to respond at any time.

It turned out that he was worried about this problem. Atfield breathed a sigh of relief. He patted his assistant, the skeleton leopard mage Gu Yi, and said, "This is easy to solve. The skeleton mage can open the entrance to the space and leave Gu Yi here. It just so happens that its strength is not suitable for exploring there."

The opening of the space entrance only needs the energy of the undead system to activate it, and Gu Yi's current four-star strength is sufficient for this job.

Chu Xin nodded, agreeing to Atfield's suggestion, which was better, at least he didn't have to worry about Atfield's backstab at the critical moment.

This time, he intends to enter in person.

There are definitely risks, but they are not too great. Chu Xin can contact Cao Tuan at any time inside to inform Gu Yi to open the entrance.

The back road is guaranteed, if you really can't stand it, just retreat.

Just in case, Tie Lin also followed in. If there is an emergency, hiding in the ground can also solve part of the problem.

The teams unfolded one by one. In the front row, several rows of skeleton warriors holding swords and shields, wearing light armor and iron helmets entered first.

For the elite troops under his command, Chu Xin equipped them with basic equipment, but unfortunately the reserves of iron ore were still too small, otherwise the light armor with less coverage would be replaced with full body armor with stronger defensive performance.

Friday led the spear skeleton and the black warrior, followed closely behind the sword shield skeleton, and finally entered the long-range team composed of the skeleton shooter and the skeleton spear thrower.

Taking a deep breath, Chu Xin brought Atfield who couldn't wait, and Bingmeng who was lying on the iron scale's back with a face of reluctance.

The grass group and the magic-weave mecha were left in the basement, responsible for guarding the basement and preventing emergencies.

In addition, there are Gu Yi and a small number of skeleton warriors who are responsible for opening the entrance to the ruins space at any time.

The entire basement was overturned by the grass and buried in the mound. From the outside, only a small undulating mound could be seen. It was difficult to detect that there was a remains of a Lich hidden inside.

Although this place is very remote, there are many things that cannot be explained clearly, and the precautions that should be taken are still to be taken.

The dark underground space in front of him quickly changed, and a gloomy low sky appeared in Chu Xin's vision.

As soon as he entered, Chu Xin felt the erosion of the strong breath of death, which silently damaged his body functions.

If you stay in this space for a long time, not to mention other physical problems, in terms of life expectancy, you will definitely lose a lot of it silently.

Necromancers are short-lived because of this reason, but there are also short-lived methods. They can transform themselves into undead and continue to survive in another form.

Chu Xin spread his mental energy to isolate the strong breath of death, and suddenly, the unspeakable sense of depression in his heart dissipated a lot.

Bingmeng, who was on the side, reacted much faster than Chu Xin. As soon as she came in, she enveloped herself with mental power, and protected the iron scale by the way.

Atfield didn't take any protection, but instead breathed greedily, with a look of enjoyment, as if returning to his own home.

In fact, when a necromancer accepts the erosion of these death breaths, it is also a process of gradually adapting to his own body. Although the price is that he will age and die faster, but correspondingly, transforming himself into an undead body will also follow the erosion. Burning just got a little easier.

There is one thing to say, the profession of necromancer, hey, is still a bit perverted.

Chu Xin looked towards the front of the team. The undead team that entered first had already begun to contact the skeleton undead.

Some of the skeletal undead wandering around the entrance were attracted to them as soon as they entered.

But when they ran into a well-trained skeleton army, they had just approached, and they were hacked to the ground by the ready-to-go sword and shield skeletons.

At this time, the bones and undead on the entire plain became restless with the appearance of the exploration team.

Endless bone frames appeared in the field of vision, and large pieces seemed to extend to the sky.

To use a poem to describe it, it is roughly: the bones are infinitely white, reflecting... er, anyway, that's what it means.

Facing such a large-scale enemy, the undead army seemed quite calm, maintaining their formation, quietly waiting for the wave of skeletons and undead to approach.

There was a chaotic running sound of "cracking" on the ground, and the ground seemed to be shaking. I don't know how many skeletons and undead were frantically rushing towards their small exploration team.

At the forefront of the team were three layers of knife and shield skeletons holding round shields, and they collided with these skeletons and undead without fear.

Hitting with the round shield, slashing with the short knife, and skilled movements immediately stopped the wave of skeletons and undead.

Facing the impact of the skeletons and undead, they held their bodies firmly and never took half a step back.

The spear skeleton at the back straightened out the spear, stabbed along the gap to fill the space, and slowed down the attack of the skeleton undead.

Bone arrows and bone spears fell like rain, falling crazily, breaking the body of the skeleton undead with tremendous force, but the overall effect was not very good.

The skeleton body has always been very resistant to long-range attacks. Unless it hits the fire of the soul, it is difficult to kill these skeletons and undead in one blow.

Friday also discovered this, and quickly directed the long-range team to adjust the attack method, from the original covering shooting to more precise burst shooting.

Their targets are those undead skeletons who try to climb over their teammates and climb over from above.

These undead skeletons in mid-air are the best targets.

The strength of the bones and undead on the plain should have a tiered distribution, and the strength becomes weaker as you go outward.

Therefore, the first batch of skeletons and undead who came up were not strong, nor did they have any special abilities. Their strength was basically below three stars, and they belonged to the first level of cannon fodder.

Such skeletal undead, in essence, normal human warriors, as long as they overcome their fear, they can easily single out.

The only troublesome thing is that these undead skeletons have all kinds of strange shapes. Although most of them are in the form of human skeletons, there are often some undead skeletons with strange attack methods.

There are all kinds of bone pigs with bone spurs, winding bone snakes, and centaur skeletons running on all fours.

The special form brought all kinds of unexpected attacks, such as flying bone spurs and scurrying bone snakes, but facing Friday's multi-layered defensive front, they were all blocked.

The skeletal undead surged in, like the tide coming from the sea, hitting the dam and being washed away.

Chu Xin's current position is at the edge of the entire experimental space. Behind him is the space wall of the experimental space, so it is difficult for the skeletons and undead to rush in from behind.

The defensive team only needs to defend against the attacks coming from the front, and there is no need to worry about the rear.

The skeleton warriors have always maintained a tight formation, like a semicircular bowl, firmly resisting the attack of the skeleton undead.

Compared with those undead skeletons who attack indiscriminately, the attack of skeleton warriors is undoubtedly more efficient and sharper. Most of the short knives in their hands are slashed at the soul fire or important joints of the undead skeletons. Basically, one knife can solve the problem. A skeletal undead.

On the contrary, it was the attack of the skeleton undead. The random claws and teeth collided with the light armor of the skeleton warrior, making a crisp sound. Apart from a few more scratches, there was no other achievement.

The collision between the skeleton warrior and the undead skeleton, the skeleton warrior covered in light armor and with a body of copper bones is completely different from the undead skeleton in the form of ordinary bones in terms of defense.

But this is just the beginning. The truly powerful undead skeletons have not appeared on the plain for the time being. There must be stronger undead skeletons in the future. It is hard to guarantee that there will be no new changes.

Friday was dispatched in the middle, observing the surrounding situation, and the injured skeleton warrior was quickly replaced to the rear to recover.

It has yet to use the Black Warrior, the big killer, and the Skeleton Leopard Mage is currently mainly focusing on repairing injuries. It is not worth all-out efforts to deal with these cannon fodder.

On the plain, there are densely packed skeletons and undead, which makes one's scalp tingle at a glance.

With such a large number, I don't know when they will be able to be cleaned up. Even if they don't resist, they stand there and let people chop them up.

Chu Xin sighed, and directed Tie Lin to start digging the ground. It would be great if he could bypass the attack of these undead and directly enter the laboratory in a more peaceful way.

What he didn't expect was that there were skeletons and undead underground. Under the plain dug by the iron scales, there were many sleeping skeletons and undead hidden underground, and it was easy to touch them underground.

They were buried in the underground space and could not get out, but after the iron scales dug nearby, they would immediately wake up and attack frantically.

The underground is no easier than the ground, and even more difficult.

Chu Xin sighed, and gave up walking from the ground. The whole plain felt as if it was made of countless bones. I don't know how many undead were buried in the ground. It was not as efficient as the ground.

I don't know if these skeletons and undead in the underground will climb up from the ground with time. If the underground part is added, Chu Xin feels horrible when he thinks about it.

"I have to speed up the efficiency." Chu Xin glanced at Atfield and asked him to join the attack.

Atfield waved the staff in his hand, and the bones scattered on the ground spontaneously gathered into countless new undead, fighting with those skeletons and undead.

"Lord, in fact, you don't need to save your magic power. If you don't have enough magic power, you can leave the space and go outside to recover." Atfield said suddenly.

Chu Xin slapped her head, and couldn't help calling herself stupid.

The recovery of magic power in the relic space is slow. At worst, go out to recover after it is used up. At most, the magic power will be lost a little bit, so what's the problem?

There are not a few skeletons and undead on the plain at this moment, and they will definitely not be able to be cleaned up in a short time, and there will be no major problems if they go out for a while.

"Boom", Chu Xin summoned the rock-soil puppet, a huge rock-soil puppet, waved his fist, and smashed several skeletons and undead with ease.

Facing this big guy that suddenly appeared, skeletons and undead swarmed up, and instantly covered the whole body of the rock puppet.

It's just that the attacks of these undead skeletons can't have much impact on the rock golem.
