Chapter 25 The commission of the undead!
"Detoxification is in progress, please wait."
Xia Xi said softly.
She walked to the monster's corpse, and her hands turned into trembling and buzzing light knives, swishing, swishing, swishing.
Thin blood lines gradually appeared on the surface of the monster's body.
The next second.
Most of the monster's body completely collapsed into a puddle of minced flesh.
Flames spurted out from one of Xia Salamander's hands.
The body was reduced to ashes.
Xia Salaman went to deal with another monster, and then walked back to the two of them with a smile.
——She looks like a girl who just came home from school, instead of just killing two monsters with Xiao Wu.
"Xia Salamander, why are you so powerful?" Wu Xiaode sighed.
"We have weapons." Xia Hu said succinctly.
"Do you need this monster's soul power?" Wu Xiaode asked.
"I can't absorb it," Xia Sala said.
Wu Xiaode said: "Crow, come on."
Crow whispered: "Are you sure you want to absorb its soul power? You must know that once your soul power limit increases, you must kill more monsters before you can return to the original world."
"Becoming stronger is always the first priority, go ahead." Wu Xiaode said.
The crow flew up.
To Wu Xiaode's disappointment, this time he only replenished his soul power and did not increase the upper limit.
After a few minutes.
The three of them began to move towards the other end of the abandoned passage.
"There is wind in this direction, and there is extremely weak light coming through. Maybe we can get out if we keep walking." Xia Salamander said as he walked.
Wu Xiaode looked at her and couldn't help but ask: "Sister Lan, the mobile armor also has soul power? Is she a life?"
Xia Huilan carefully avoided the corpses and waste at her feet and replied: "She was cultivated with my cells."
"What? She is your clone?" Wu Xiaode said in surprise.
Xia Huilan said: "Using me as the blueprint for the biological part, I loaded it with a brainwave overclocking processor to control the entire alloy torso. The outer layer is biological skin and hair. The whole body mecha and weapons are detachable, expandable, and improved -"< br>
"This is the summer salamander."
Wu Xiaode was shocked when he heard this and asked quickly: "So she is alive?"
"Yes, but two-thirds of her body is made of alloy." Xia Huilan said.
"It's amazing." Wu Xiaode sighed.
"When it was first made, the higher-ups wanted to erase her mind and turn her into a machine that could only kill." Xia Huilan said.
Xia Huilan's face became a little more angry, and every word became sonorous and powerful:
"She is a human being, and her rights as a human being cannot be denied because of her body."
Xia Salaman stood aside and smiled gently.
"Xia Xi..." Wu Xiaode looked at her and was speechless for a moment.
"My sister made a fake me and gave it to them on purpose, and then accidentally destroyed it when they were doing experiments, so I'm free," Xia Hu said.
Wu Xiaode suddenly remembered something and asked: "When you come to this world, do you need to kill a certain number of monsters?"
"No need." Xia Sala said.
"How much soul power do you have?" Wu Xiaode asked.
"At 10 o'clock, I have whatever the world's upper limit is," Xia Sala said.
"It's amazing." Wu Xiaode said with emotion.
Xia Huilan smiled and said: "Don't be careless. This world is unfathomable. We will help you kill enough monsters and then go back immediately."
"Yeah." Wu Xiaode nodded.
He suddenly caught sight of something from the corner of his eye. He turned around, but found nothing.
"Xia Salamander, what did you see?" he asked.
"I have turned on the real-time combat warning system, and I haven't noticed any movement yet." Xia Hu said.
"Strange..."
Did I see it wrong?
Wu Xiaode murmured a little in his heart, but found that the Book of the Dead quietly fell in front of him and spread out.
Lines of small ice crystal characters appeared on the page:
"Sudden commissioned tasks:"
"Buy time."
"Commission statement: The monsters are constantly digging underground passages and are about to find the entrance to the fifth secret passage. You must stop them for at least ten minutes to allow the people in the secret passage to evacuate safely."
"Delegation reward: unknown."
"——Do you accept this sudden commission?"
"Note: The unexpected task does not use the wish wall, so it is not counted in the number of uses of the wish wall on that day."
Wu Xiaode was startled for a moment, but he quickly came to his senses.
There are undead here!
If it is an additional task, there must be additional gains.
The most important thing for him now is to improve his strength, why not do it?
The upper limit of soul power has reached 6 points.
Even if he is not in a hurry to deal with the one-eyed giant, he must let his soul power exceed 10 points as soon as possible and try to catch up with those in the S-class club.
——That magician is not so easy to deal with!
If I stab him a few times, will he surrender willingly?
There is no such person in the world.
In other words, such a weak person cannot become a strong person at all.
"I accept the commission!"
Wu Xiaode responded immediately.
The Book of the Dead was shocked.
A strange wave emanated from the book.
Soon, a faint human-shaped light and shadow appeared in the void.
This is a man wearing a combat uniform. His figure is almost translucent, floating in the air, looking towards Wu Xiaode.
Xia Huilan and Xia Hui both turned a blind eye to him.
——This is an undead!
"Thank you for your willingness to lend a helping hand." The undead man sent a telepathic message to Wu Xiaode.
"How did you find me?" Wu Xiaode asked.
"Your ability is on the undead side, and it found us - to be honest, few people can awaken the abilities of undead and heroic spirits, because this ability must awaken the power at the moment of death." The undead man explained.
"Everyone will die. According to what you said, everyone has a chance." Wu Xiaode responded with his thoughts.
The man shook his head and said: "The moment of death is too short, and there is no time to awaken the power. Even if it is awakened, because it has entered death, there is no chance to use the power."
Wu Xiaode nodded slightly.
I awakened the Book of the Dead at the moment of death, but at that time I entered the Death Cave, and only then did I have the opportunity to use the power of this book to communicate with the undead.
In the end, it was extremely rare that he was not eaten by the one-eyed giant.
Only then did he have the opportunity to return to the real world with the Book of the Dead.
——It’s really difficult.
The undead waved behind him.
Dozens of people wearing combat uniforms quietly appeared in the air.
"Why didn't you go reincarnate after you died? Why are you still staying here?" Wu Xiaode couldn't help but said from his heart.
"Our mission is not completed yet." The undead said.
"Are you guarding the fifth secret passage?" Wu Xiaode asked.
The undead nodded.
Wu Xiaode sighed, shook his head and said: "Forget it, please take me to the fifth secret passage."
The undead suddenly became excited, floated in the air, and flew in one direction of the underground passage.
"Xia salamander, protect Sister Lan and follow me."
Wu Xiaode shouted.
He ran forward with the undead, and the two women immediately took action, following closely behind him.
"Did you find anything?" Xia Huilan asked.
"I had some strange sensations after I woke up. Now let's go and see if they will come true." Wu Xiaode said.
Xia Huilan said nothing.
Wu Xiaode knew that she was a little worried. After thinking about it, he simply asked the undead man named the leader directly:
"Is there any danger around here?"
The undead man said: "There are some passages that are really dangerous, but I will take you on a small path to avoid those dangerous places and get to the fifth passage first."
He flew to a wall, pointed to a place on the wall and said: "There is a mechanism here, you open it."
Wu Xiaode stepped forward to take a look and saw that there was indeed a broken stone slab on the wall.
This slate seems to be able to be cut open...
In short, even normal people may not notice such traces, let alone those huge monsters.
Wu Xiaode reached out and grabbed it.
Rumble, rumble——
The wall slowly rotated, revealing a deep staircase passage.
"Xiao Wu, how do you know there is a secret door here?" Xia Huilan said in surprise.
"Look here."
Wu Xiaode pointed out the broken stone slab to her.
——It’s not that he wanted to hide it from her on purpose, but that his ability was related to the Cyclops and he didn’t dare to let anyone know about it.
What if everyone who knows is implicated?
The Cyclops is an inexplicable existence.
Never let it touch everything it wants to protect!
"You are so careful, you can see this."
Xia Huilan showed admiration.
Wu Xiaode was thick-skinned and didn't say much. He walked along the steps and walked in.
Xia Hu suddenly grabbed him and Xia Huilan and whispered: "Look."
A ball of light emerged from her arm and condensed into a holographic video, showing the scene when several people were running just now.
As they ran past several bodies——
A corpse opened its eyes and glanced at Wu Xiaode.
Xia Huilan's face turned pale and she looked panicked, muttering: "Is it a living person pretending to be dead?"
"I've tested it, and there's no heartbeat, pulse or breathing." Xia Salamang said with a smile.
Wu Xiaode looked around subconsciously.
All the corpses on the ground inside and outside the passage opened their eyes and stared at the three people coldly.
This scene is extremely scary.
Xia Huilan covered her mouth and looked around with a pale face, looking quite shaky.
Wu Xiaode was worried that she would cause problems if she was frightened, so he quickly supported her and said: "Sister, don't be afraid."
"I'm not afraid." Xia Huilan said.
"Then what are you—" Wu Xiaode said curiously.
Xia Huilan excitedly grabbed Wu Xiaode's hand and trembled: "If I can calculate the soul power application rules behind this phenomenon, this will be an epoch-making achievement!"
Wu Xiaode lowered his head silently.
You haven't completed your last achievement yet, is this going to be an epoch-making event again?
At this time, Xia Hu said softly: "The soul power wave was discovered and it was determined to be the effect of soul power driving."
His mind changed, and he turned towards the undead in the void and said, "Are the undead controlling these corpses?"
The undead man looked at the holographic video and suddenly said:
"No, that is a kind of evil magic that can control the corpse. In fact, the soul of the corpse is no longer here."
The magic of controlling corpses...
Wu Xiaode was shocked and reacted immediately.
Guess the devil. It must be him!
