Chapter 172 Old soldiers never die, they only wither away.

After vomiting for a while and barely getting used to it, the two of them walked forward together.

Then they discovered that apart from the entire hellish world becoming high-definition, there weren't many other changes.

A quick scan revealed the Nether Fortress.

This is more convenient than playing games; when fully extended, its sensory capabilities can cover an area of ​​tens of thousands of meters.

Li Hao then led Lao Wu stealthily over there.

"Actually, I don't quite understand why we're acting so sneaky. Wouldn't it be better to just fly there?"

Old Wu asked in a low voice, immediately earning a glare from Li Hao.

"What do you know? This is called immersion."

Shh, we're here.

Ahead, black and red lower boundary bricks were stacked together, forming a huge, grid-like building.

Scattered along the straight, narrow corridor were Flame People engulfed in flames, Pig People wielding golden swords, and Wither Skeletons, reduced to mere skeletons, their bodies pitch black.

The two hid in a corner of a room and looked up.

"Old Wu, I bet you wouldn't dare take off your armor and let that black skeleton touch you."

Wuliang Sheng peered over and saw that the black skull was quite tall, a head taller than them.

Although it is only a skeleton, it can move, holding a stone sword in its hand, taking two steps, stopping two steps, and spinning in place.

"I didn't find it particularly impressive..."

Intuitively, that was indeed the case; he did not perceive any threat.

But this world is so wicked; it's probably not as simple as it seems.

"How dangerous is it?" he asked.

"That depends on how you calculate it. If you let him touch you, you can immediately fly up into the sky and they won't be able to touch you anymore."

Upon hearing this, Wuliang Sheng looked at the withered skeleton again and pondered for a moment.

"What if I dared?"

"Then you're awesome."

Wuliang Sheng was somewhat speechless. What good was it to say that he was so great?

He said, "Here's what we'll do: if I let that thing touch me, you give me an immortal totem."

Li Hao chuckled and said, "Wearing the Endless Set and only needing one Undying Totem? You're a business genius."

"Alright! But I understand the greater good, so I'll give you an endless totem."

"What's the difference?"

"The Undying Totem can only be used once, while the Endless Totem can be used nine hundred and ninety-nine times."

"Let's do it!"

He had already experienced the wonders of the Immortal Totem. It had no side effects and even provided life-saving benefits, something rarely seen even in the God Realm. There was even a totem that could be used 990 times!

Holding this thing in your hand is practically like being immortal, the only price being letting that black skull touch it once. Only a fool wouldn't do that.

As he spoke, he had already taken off the Endless Armor, and after he did, the world in front of him suddenly went dark.

The once clear view in the distance suddenly became blurry, the light dimmed with a reddish tinge, making it even harder to see clearly.

The air I inhaled became scorching hot, not in terms of temperature, but in a kind of indescribable heat.

In short, it was extremely uncomfortable.

This starry sky armor actually has this kind of protective effect?

After all, this was only the second time he had worn the Endless Set, and the last time he hadn't seen much of its effectiveness, so he had no idea how valuable it was.

I'm starting to regret it a little, but there's no use regretting it now. I'll just have to get the Endless Totem first.

"I'm in."

Wuliang Sheng was about to jump out, but at the last moment, Li Hao took the initiative to give him the Endless Totem.

"Just in case. Go ahead."

Looking at the endless totems in his hand, Wuliang Sheng felt a surge of confidence and immediately strode forward.

As soon as I stepped out of the room, all the monsters in front of me turned their heads to look at me.

Without the protection of the Endless Set, Wuliang Sheng felt an unprecedented and incredibly clear hatred at this moment.

That was the natural hostility of undead creatures towards living beings. He had experienced it before, but never before had it been so intense.

Almost instantly, he felt a sense of foreboding.

But there was no reason to back down at this point. He simply gripped the endless totem in his hand, gritted his teeth, and made a firm decision to advance instead of retreat.

"Come on! Let Grandpa see how amazing you are!"

The bet was for Black Skull to touch him, so he definitely couldn't activate any isolation-type protection. Wuliangsheng just watched as Black Skull rushed forward, raised his stone sword, and slashed down fiercely!

Wuliang Sheng tensed up, preparing to guard against the impending attack.

But when the stone sword struck him, he suddenly realized...

"Hmm? It doesn't hurt?"

The moment that thought crossed his mind, he suddenly felt an incredibly strange power surge into his body, causing his life force to rapidly vanish!

"What the hell is this thing?!"

Wuliang Sheng was greatly alarmed. Remembering what Li Hao had said about being able to hide in the air, he immediately prepared to set off.

But that power surged through his body so rapidly that it almost made him lose all strength.

Her once fair and tender skin quickly became withered and aged, and she aged at a visible rate.

It's not the smooth kind; it just suddenly ages every two seconds.

In just a few seconds, Wuliangsheng was surrounded and kicked by several withered skeletons, and soon the sound of shattering was heard.

The Endless Totem has been triggered.

The totem effect includes clearing all abnormal statuses. The moment it was triggered, Wuliang Sheng finally regained control of his body and suddenly rose higher.

Flying into the air, he stared at the skulls, drenched in sweat, and asked in terror, "What kind of hellish power is that?!"

Li Hao grinned. That thing was actually called the "Withering" effect.

In the game, the trigger interval and damage vary depending on the level.

The Wither Skeleton's "Wither" status only has one level, which means it deals 1 point of damage to the player every two seconds.

But here, this withered state is quite alarming!

One-twentieth of the body withers every two seconds, and during the withering period, the body's condition drops drastically, making it impossible to even escape.

Furthermore, the withering effect in the game only deducts health, but the withering effect here is literally just withering!

They lost all chance of survival!

If the decaying effect cannot be removed in time, one can only watch oneself grow old step by step until one decays into dust.

That's too domineering.

Just then, Wuliangsheng, with a dark face, took out a blue longsword.

Then, a dragon's roar suddenly rang out, and he slashed down with his sword, cleaving the black skull and the entire corridor away.

There's no way around it; the Wither effect is powerful, but the Wither Skeletons don't have much health to begin with, so naturally they can't withstand it.

Right where those withered skeletons had died, the black skeleton turned into white smoke and dissipated, leaving behind a few floating bones and coal.

That's right, these are the two main drops from the Wither Skeleton.

Bones can be broken down into bone meal, and coal is a high-quality fuel; both are very useful.

Li Hao came here for this very reason.

He wants to build a large-scale Wither Skeleton Farm. Once it's built, bone meal and coal will be produced continuously!
