There's a skeleton dungeon connected to my basement.

Chapter 167, Corpse Tax Level

When the day came for the Corpse Tax dungeon to reopen, all the preparations had been made. As the time displayed on the dungeon door ran out, there was no need to hesitate, so Xiao Yang chose to continue advancing.

During the brief wait after confirmation, he remembered something that the dungeon door had given him before.

[Invitation to the Green Elves’ Land]

"Can you go take a look sometime?"

In future world travels, one thing may be very important to Xiao Yang, that is the invitation permission from the destination world. If he rashly lands, he may be beaten by the will of the world.

This invitation to the Green Elf Land is his only invitation to the world.

Although I always feel that the things given by the dungeon door are not very good, but maybe, maybe there are some eye-catching green-haired elf girls in it.

As he was thinking this, an ordinary portal appeared in front of Xiao Yang, and the transmission was ready.

Pushing open the dungeon door in front of you, taking a step forward, you suddenly arrived at your destination.

The old tree was distorted with only a few scattered leaves. Most of the black crows that were startled and flew into the sky had already fallen down, leaving only a little dim afterglow of the sun.

He lowered his head and his eyes fell on the corpses at his feet. The corpses were piled up randomly, most of them had empty chests, and some of them had light white hair growing on their bodies.

"Cuck!"

The black crow that landed on Xiao Yang's head looked at him and made curious calls.

Such a scene was not too strange to Xiao Yang, but the reason why this large dungeon was called the Corpse Tax was becoming clearer and clearer.

At this time, the prompt of the God Game sounded.

[Dungeon Crawlers Rewards Have Arrived]

Xiao Yang was just about to collect the reward for the Dungeon Crawlers.

"Ugh!"

Suddenly, a strange cry was heard. He stopped what he was doing and looked up. The strange sound came from a pile of corpses not far away. His eyes fell on them and Xiao Yang took out his huge rusty axe which was also getting redder and redder.

During the endless battles, this giant axe, with all the stories and legends buried by time, was able to wash away some of the mottled rust, using the blood, flesh, or mucus of various monsters.

Both it and the Dragon Hunter Armor are becoming more and more popular in Xiao Yang's hands. Perhaps it can be revitalized in Xiao Yang's hands and gain new stories and legends.

As he watched, a corpse with fine white hair growing over most of its body slowly and with difficulty climbed out from the pile of corpses.

It woke up because it felt the breath of the living.

Just as it struggled to push away the corpses piled on it, before it could do anything, the first thing to arrive was the mottled heavy axe that was swung down. In an instant, the stiff corpse that had climbed up again fell down again.

The world returned to silence.

Xiao Yang once again prepared to receive his advancement reward.

Then once again, he was interrupted. Not far away, a few skinny black dogs seemed to have discovered Xiao Yang's presence.

Sporadic barking of dogs could be heard.

Xiao Yang, who was interrupted again, felt a little resentful. He grabbed his rusty heavy axe and strode towards the black dogs.

Looking up a little, Xiao Yang was on a desolate hill. There was nothing particularly surprising on the hill, not many trees, not much grass, and no water.

All that was left were corpses piled up randomly and large pits that were dug or half-dug.

Xiaogu's figure appeared where Xiao Yang had just paused. The little guy squatted down and stretched out his hand to feel the white-haired corpse with its head chopped off.

Soon, Xiaogu touched a piece of gray flesh out of the corpse.

Given Xiao Yang's current condition, the second level of corpse tax hardly causes him any major trouble.

To put it simply, it can be described in one word: "Indiscriminate killing!"

The frightened barking of dogs and the noise made by Xiao Yang disturbed the sleeping corpses here.

The zombies woke up one by one and began to crawl out and stand up at once.

Some had white hair, some had black hair, some were jumping around, some were moving like the wind, densely packed, coming out from the pile of corpses, from the half-buried pits, or directly from the ground.

The zombies that crawled out gathered together, raised their heads, and looked at the stranger who disturbed them.

Compared with the densely packed zombies, Xiao Yang's lonely figure seems a little thin.

But Xiao Yang was not behind in momentum. He was tall and wore scarlet armor. His eyes shone scarlet light in the red setting sun. He stood on the top of the hill, holding a huge scarlet axe with mottled rust in his hand.

The battle begins.

The zombies rushed to Xiao Yang.

Xiao Yang was constantly making these guys who were already dead die again.

He chopped off heads, severed bodies, and scattered rotting corpses everywhere. He kept moving as he faced the zombies that kept pouring in.

During the intervals of the chaotic battle, there was a mess of zombie corpses piled up in front of him.

Xiao Yang's eyes lit up. He found a good thing from these messy zombies, something that he could use.

【Body Refining Corpse Fluid

Quality: Excellent

Negative: Use to gain corpse poison

Effect: Temporarily gain 10 points of defense, a small chance to gain one point of permanent defense, a small chance to gain hard skin trait

Introduction: The skin is like gold and iron. Hmm, good material for corpse refining.

There was a small black gourd in his hand, and his eyes lit up. Xiao Yang ignored the effect of the toxin in it. He was resistant to toxins, which he learned from eating the spider gland last time.

Although I don’t know if I can withstand the corpse poison brought by this body-refining corpse fluid.

Pour it into your stomach in one gulp.

As expected, Xiao Yang couldn't withstand the toxicity of the body-refining corpse fluid. His resistance to the weak level of toxin was still too weak, and a pale green corpse poison erosion label popped up on his head.

But it's not a big problem. The corpse poison will only deduct 15 points of blood in ten seconds, which has not exceeded the upper limit of his high recovery. Even if Xiao Yang resists it, he can still bear it.

Even in this corpse poisonous state, Xiao Yang still had the mood to comment on this body-refining corpse fluid.

The taste is as strange as ever, like a lot of oil mixed in water, with a strange fishy smell.

If possible, he would never try this taste a second time.

While thinking this, I turned my gaze to my personal panel.

What I wanted to see appeared. On the personal panel, the defense attribute jumped up a little, the current attribute.

[Defense: 139]

Now Xiao Yang's rank has changed to lord after the second upgrade, but the worst situation did not occur.

The high-quality amplification potion still works for him, and his attributes are improved, which is a great thing for him.

Xiao Yang raised his eyebrows at this discovery, and joy appeared on his face.

At the foot of the hill, zombies were still crawling up one after another, but this time, Xiao Yang's gaze on these stiff corpses was even more intense.
