This sea lord is a bit strong

Chapter 159 Skeleton Riot, Skeleton Monitor

A low-level skeleton lair?

Ji Chen shook his head, but he was not too disappointed. He had already made some psychological preparations.

After all, the skeleton monsters guarding here are basically in the 1st to 3rd ranks, and they are led by a few white skeletons.

With a big wave of his hand, he casually put this low-level skeleton lair into his backpack. After looking around, Ji Chen made sure that there was only this lair and nothing else, and then led him back the same way.

Back at the entrance of the skeleton camp, after waiting for a while, I saw Darrow and his group of half-orcs appearing on the sand dunes, running rumblingly.

pat-

Several heads of different shapes were thrown on the ground, Darrow ran up to him, his rough voice sounded like thunder, and he was still holding three white crystals in his hand.

"My lord, I have already killed these escaped skeletons."

"These three crystals rolled out of their heads."

Crystals falling from them?

Ji Chen seemed to remember something, reached out to take it, and stared at it.

【White Heroic Soul Essence】

[level]: special
[Effect]: An ordinary creature can be immediately promoted to a white ordinary hero
Sure enough, it belonged to the same series as the green heroic spirit erupting from Stein Evil Wind.

Three white heroic soul essences can make three ordinary people become heroes, even if it is only the lowest level of white ordinary people.

Ocean Crown has a rather glaring development problem.

Among the six heroes, four are purple rare level, only one blue excellent level and one green elite level, and the most common white ordinary hero has none.

The structure is very deformed.

If the purple rare heroes like Alice and Anina are likened to generals, then the white ordinary heroes are the grassroots officers and the backbone.

The result of such a lack of low-level heroes is that every small fight or small-scale monster invasion requires several high-level combat heroes to deal with it, which is a waste of manpower.

And there is another problem, that is, the advantages and disadvantages of heroes leading the army.

A purely violent hero like Anina is more suitable for fighting alone, not at all for leading an army to fight in groups.

It can neither bring the advantages brought by heroes leading the army, but also restricts her ability to a certain extent.

On the contrary, combat heroes like Benbo Erba and Darrow can not only command the dragon blood murlocs and half-orc warriors well, but also give great buffs and bonuses.

If there are a few heroes who can match the arms, it will be easier to command the battle and improve the combat effectiveness of the arms.

Putting the three white heroic souls into his backpack, Ji Chen left with the army, looking for the next skeleton camp similar to this one.

He finally discovered that the skeleton leader of this skeleton secret realm has a high probability of producing heroic souls, and he only got three of them after breaking through one camp.

If it can break through a few more camps and drop more than a dozen heroic souls, wouldn't the Ocean Crown be able to produce more than a dozen heroes at once?
Thinking of this, Ji Chen was full of energy, waved his hand, and set off again with the army.

The direction they chose was the direction in which the white skeleton leaders fled just now. Since they ran in this direction, there should be another skeleton camp somewhere.

With the main army as the center, hundreds of naga berserkers were sent to scout around.

The size of this skeleton secret realm is no less than that of the blood sea secret realm.

After leaving the stone mountain, there is a red desert in sight, vast and lonely.

After crossing a hill, it was still a hill, covering the entire ground as if it were endless.

After walking for several hours, no skeleton camp was found, but the sky gradually darkened, and the surrounding visibility rapidly decreased.

Seeing this, Ji Chen had no choice but to stop the army and set up camp in a valley sheltered from the wind.

soon.Night fell completely.

The sky was covered with dark clouds, and a blood moon appeared behind the clouds, and the blood-colored moonlight illuminated the gravel more vividly.

Hearing the howling wind outside the tent, Ji Chen, who hugged Alice's soft body, gradually relaxed his mind.

But before he was about to fall asleep completely, he vaguely heard the sound of sand and gravel flowing under the wind, but he didn't pay attention to it.

Until I heard a shrill warning sound from outside.

"Enemy attack!!!"

Ji Chen opened his eyes in an instant, and found that Alice had also woken up, with a look of vigilance on his face.

The two immediately got up and dressed, and quickly led Alice out of the tent.

At a glance, blood-red flames appeared at some point on the top of the surrounding sand dunes.

Ji Chen stared at it.

No, this is the flame in the eye socket of the skeleton monster!
Why are there so many skeleton monsters suddenly appearing?
Could it be that other skeleton commanders discovered them and gathered their forces to attack in the dark?

Although he doesn't know the specific reason, Ji Chen knows that now is not the time to worry about this.

Listening to the creaking sound that even the wind and the soft gravel can't cover, one knows that there are a large number of skeleton monsters rushing towards the other end of the dune.

Some of them have already started fighting with the night watch army.

They are stationed in the valley, surrounded by sand dunes. Once the top is occupied by skeleton monsters, they will form a condescending offensive, and then it will be difficult to fight.

Realizing this, Ji Chen immediately yelled loudly.

"All the troops climb up and build a line of defense at the top of the sand dunes!"

"The half-orcs are the reserve team, ready to support the friendly army at any time!"

It was said that the army, which had just recovered from a resting state, rushed to the top of the sand dune without hesitation, and soon joined forces with the night watch troops, and built a line of defense stretching hundreds of meters according to the ring-shaped sand dune.

Seeing this, Ji Chen breathed a sigh of relief, and followed him up to the top of the sand dune.

Although he had killed tens of thousands of skeleton monsters along the way, when he saw the attacking skeleton monsters at this time, he still couldn't help but gasped.

Under the illumination of the blood moon, skeleton monsters densely packed like a sea are attacking the defense line.

The blood-red flames swaying in the eye sockets filled every land in front of the vision.

At least there must be more than [-] skeleton monsters to have such a posture! ?
Where the hell did these skeletons come from! ?
But he soon discovered that the attack of these skeleton monsters was unorganized and orderly, and they just surged up by virtue of their numerical advantage, and there seemed to be no command of the skeleton commander.

The hundreds of meters of defense line built by the army stood still like a mountain blocking the wave-like attack of the sea of ​​skeletons.

But there are too many skeleton monsters, shoulder to shoulder, back to back, pushing each other.

When he smelled Ji Chen's breath, he became even crazier, biting his mouth against them, pushing hard, even breaking his ribs and his allies.

Most of the skeleton monsters were blocked in front of the defense line, but some were gradually pushed to the edge of the defense line and leaked in.

Seeing this, Ji Chen frowned, and asked Darrow to fill in with the half-orcs on standby, killing the skeleton monsters that leaked in, and plugging the gap.

I don't know if it's because of the blood moon or the night.

These skeleton monsters with blood-red flames flickering in their eyes are stronger than the blue flames on average, attacking fearlessly.

The Naga Berserker's double blades opened and closed, and each swing could chop three or four skeleton monsters into pieces.

The dragon blood murloc threw it vigorously, and the trident was like a fully charged crossbow bolt, brutally crushing several skeleton monsters in a line.

The elemental sea elf has advanced from the third level to the fourth level, and the firepower has not only increased several times?
Each water arrow is like a parent-child bomb, the main arrow explodes in the enemy group, hundreds of sub-arrows bloom like a flower, and the dissipated berserk energy sweeps across the skeleton monsters within a radius of three to forty meters, causing a short-lived explosion. vacancy.

Every time it blooms, hundreds of skeleton monsters are torn apart, and the surviving skeleton monsters are also dilapidated.

In terms of killing efficiency, they are the strongest units under Ji Chen's command.

The sound of fighting resounded throughout the red desert. Two hours had passed, but the number of skeleton monsters in front of them had not decreased at all, and more monsters were pouring in from afar.

Ji Chen felt ruthless in his heart, gritted his teeth and began to send out the self-explosive water spider that had not been used.

He wanted to see what it would be like to combine the strength of a Tier 3 and [-] star with the power of an explosion.

get instructions.

A wave of fifty self-exploding water spiders circled far from both sides.

The eight slender legs walked very swiftly on the gravel, and within a few breaths, they came to both sides of the sea of ​​skeletons, and under Ji Chen's control, one rushed up first.

Seeing the self-explosive water spider approaching, the skeleton monster, who had no sense of life and death, immediately greeted it.

The sharp bone claws swung out suddenly, directly inserted into the body of the self-explosive water spider and stirred wantonly.

The next moment, the body of the self-explosive water spider froze, and a faint green light suddenly emitted from its body, and then the whole body exploded suddenly.

boom--

I saw a small mushroom cloud rising suddenly, and the violent air flow carried energy and rushed to the surroundings, raising countless gravel.

When the gravel falls, the smoke dissipates.

With the explosion point as the center, all the skeleton monsters within a radius of 50 meters, whether they are ordinary skeleton monsters or more advanced skeleton dogs and black skeletons, all turned into a cloud of white dust in the explosion, spreading on the gravel one after another , forming a white desert.

There was a hint of surprise in Ji Chen's eyes, and he almost held his breath.

He didn't expect it to be so powerful, it's much stronger than C4!
When he came back to his senses, he showed a wild smile.

This time he wants to blow up these skeleton monsters fiercely!
Mind a move.

The remaining 49 self-exploding water spiders also rushed up one after another.

boom--

boom--

In the battlefield, a small mushroom cloud rose from time to time, accompanied by thousands of skeleton monsters turning into dust.

The continuous explosions left huge gaps in the sea of ​​skeletons, and it took a long time for them to be replenished.

Following the self-explosion of the self-explosive water spiders, the system prompts sounded one after another.

"Ding~ Your army killed 536 ordinary skeletons and gained experience"

"Ding~ Your army killed 215 black skeletons and gained experience."

"Ding ~ Ni's army killed 87 skeleton dogs and gained experience."

"Ding~ Your level has increased (22→23)."

"Ding~ Your level has increased (23→24)."

"Ding~ Your level has increased (24→25)."

Looking at the flying level, Ji Chen's teeth are almost bared in a smile.

This is no longer called killing monsters to gain experience, this is already called gaining experience.

Who can level up so fast?

Several hours later, no more skeleton monsters appeared in the distance, and when the last one was chopped into several pieces, his level also stopped at level 27.

Apart from him, the other heroes have also been upgraded several levels.

Among them, Alice is the tallest, having reached level 28, and the rest are also between level 25 and 28.

This wave is simply a bloodbath!

At this time, Ji Chen's uneasy feeling of being suddenly attacked at the beginning had already been thrown away nine days away, replaced by a sense of relief, wishing for a few more waves of this scale of the sea of ​​skeletons.

At this speed, it would be easy to reach level 35 before leaving this secret realm!

After several hours of bloody battle, the army has also shown signs of exhaustion.

Looking at the blood moon that was gradually hiding behind the clouds, his heart also relaxed slowly, and he said loudly.

"Leave part of the alert, and the rest go to rest."

After finishing speaking, he walked down the sand dunes and returned to the tent to continue to rest.

the next day.

The rested army set off again, heading towards the depths of the vast red desert.

But this time, something seems to be different.

After marching for two hours.

In the uniform red, a black stone forest appeared.

A large number of skeleton monsters are entrenched around the stone forest.

Seeing this scene, Ji Chen didn't know that this was another skeleton camp.

But looking at the number of skeleton monsters here, it is much more than the previous skeleton camp.

Among them, a new skeleton monster appeared.

It looks like a lizard, its bones make up a body four to five meters long, but it only has a pair of forearms, and a thick tail occupies half of its length, obviously not for ornamental purposes.

There is a circular bone shield between the neck and the head, and a sturdy bone horn grows on the pointed head.

This image looks quite mighty and domineering.

【Skeleton Monitor】

[Special existence among the skeleton family, with powerful surprise ability]

Ji Chen's pupils shrank slightly.

Tier 2 [-] stars.
This is the first time he has encountered a fourth-order skeleton monster, and it seems that he is not a good stubble.

But fortunately, this kind of skeleton monitor lizard doesn't seem to be a miscellaneous soldier. At a glance, there are only about a hundred or so outside the stone forest, and this number is still within the control range.

Looking at the skills and characteristics of this skeleton monitor lizard, Ji Chen gradually had an idea in his heart.
