Chapter 64 Entering the Underground


Chapter 64 Entering the Underground

There was some thought in Richard's eyes.

Are these undead beings similar to temple guardians, or is there really a city of the undead underground?

My heart began to stir.

After observing for a long time, I didn't get much useful information.

There was no hesitation at the moment and he made a decision directly.

"First clean up the enemies outside the iron mine and watch the passage."

There are three squadrons of skeleton warriors stationed at the iron mine.

Level 2, normal 2 stars.

Although there are many in number, their strength is average.

This is also a characteristic of the undead.

The moment the order was issued, the army immediately launched an attack.

The scorpion warriors charged very quickly and were the first to enter the iron mine.

The Axes of the Dead followed closely behind. Facing these skeletons, they did not throw their axes and rushed forward with their axes in hand.

Facing this group of ordinary undead that were about 1.7 meters tall, they had an absolute advantage.

Chopping horizontally and vertically.

Click~

The undead are not afraid of death, but there is a gap in strength. No matter how crazy they are, they cannot stop the advancement of the Twilight City army.

Three and a half squads of rare soldiers seemed to have turned on their unparalleled weapons, running rampant.

The skeleton warrior fell down like wheat

"Ding~ The army you led wiped out a group of skeleton warriors and won a small battle. You gained 600 experience points."

This experience is rich enough.

Richard laughed.

After the iron mine was captured, he came to the underground passage with great interest.

This passage rises about three meters high from the ground and is made entirely of rock.

The ground sloped downwards, and a corner appeared after dozens of meters.

The dark environment is like the gaping mouth of a giant beast, waiting for outsiders to fall into its trap.

There are torches burning every short distance in the passage.

The torch exudes a faint blue light, like the soul fire in the head of the undead.

Richard took a curious look at the torches.

Torch Monster

[Level]: Level 1

[Potential]: Normal 1 star

[Skill]: Burning (F level, can absorb the death energy in the air, endless burning)

[Racial Talent]: The dimmer the light, the brighter the light.

[Bond - Torch]: If the number of torch monsters exceeds 10, the brightness will be increased by 20%. If the number exceeds 20, the brightness will be increased by 40% (activated).

[Introduction]: Weird beings created by the undead. They are useless except for glowing.

Good guy, this works too.

Richard felt that his eyes were opened. The undead were worthy of being undead and had everything.

But fortunately, there are these torch monsters, so the passage will not be dark.

"Leave a small team of poisonous scorpion warriors to guard the outside, and the rest will follow me inside."

This passage is quite spacious and can accommodate a small team of scorpion warriors moving forward side by side.

Richard put 5 Scorpion Warriors and 5 Axes of the Dead into a mixed formation and asked them to explore the path about 50 meters ahead to prevent accidents.

Then there is a combination of 5 poisonous scorpion warriors, 10 axes of the dead, and 15 cursed pharaohs.

He is in front of the Cursed Pharaoh and behind the Ax of the Dead.

The core and the safest location.

After making arrangements, Richard asked the Cursed Pharaoh and the poisonous scorpion warriors in front to take a few torch monsters and hold them in their hands to illuminate them.

Whether the light is dim or not has little effect on the life of the undead. They can use the fire of their souls to sense their enemies and observe their surroundings.

Darkness has no effect on the undead, but it does on him. He has not yet gained dark vision and cannot see through the darkness yet.

The faint blue light looked very dark in the underground passage, but it was better than not seeing anything at all.

Not ten minutes after walking through the passage, the sound of fighting suddenly came from the team exploring the path 50 meters ahead.

"Enemy attack!"

The next moment the poisonous scorpion warriors in the lead roared, seven or eight squads of skeleton warriors rushed out from across the passage.

Close combat.

But in such a narrow terrain, the skeleton warriors could not exert their numerical advantage.

Twilight City directly blocked the opponent with only a small team of troops.

The two giant pincers of the poisonous scorpion warrior have become the scythes of death. They whirred when they were swung. The skeleton warrior carrying the bone knife could not bear it at all.

It was directly dismantled into a pile of bones.

Phew~

Suddenly there was a sound of arrows piercing the sky.

Two teams of skeleton shooters appeared behind the skeleton warriors.

In such a small range, it is difficult to avoid arrows.

Sonorous~

The poisonous scorpion warriors who were fighting fiercely were shot directly, but those bone arrows could not break through the defense.

The hard bone armor of the body acts as a powerful protective layer, directly deflecting arrows.

Although he was not injured, the poisonous scorpion warrior was also furious.

Do these garbage skeletons dare to harm them?

He rushed straight up and swung his giant pincers to smash the skeleton warriors blocking the road ahead to pieces.

When the Ax of the Dead saw that the enemy had long-range weapons, he no longer held back, and threw the battle ax in his hand with great power.

Click~ The body of the skeleton warrior blocking the front exploded, and seven or eight skeleton warriors became candied haws.

When the power of the battle ax was about to expire, the Ax of the Dead jerked the chain in his hand, and a new force immediately poured into the battle ax.

Click~click~

Like an egg being struck by a whip, the skeletons on the left and right shattered, and bones flew everywhere.

The skeleton archers at the rear were not much better. As a sure-kill target, 5 Axes of the Dead set off a battle ax storm.

Seven or eight teams of skeleton warriors all turned into skeletal scum within a few rounds.

When Richard arrived with a large force, the enemy had already been cleared.

Seeing this, he immediately let the troops exploring the front approach to a distance of only 20 meters.

In this way, you can have a certain buffer space when encountering enemies, and you can also provide timely support.

The battle just now attracted the attention of the enemy deep in the passage.

Skeleton warriors kept appearing in front of the scorpion warriors and attacking them.

But they were only one or two small groups, which were quickly annihilated and failed to pose a threat to them.

Twenty minutes later, after rounding a corner, the originally dim light suddenly brightened.

A wide oval space appeared in Richard's sight.

About 100 meters long and 50 meters wide.

There is also a passage connected to the other end of the space, which is obviously not the end yet.

Dozens of torch monsters hang around, illuminating the space.

Looking carefully, this underground space is crowded with more than 3 squadrons of skeleton warriors and is tightly defended.

Five squads of skeleton archers were ready to attack in the rear.

At the end, there are three teams, and the skeleton mage holding the bone staff is waiting.

Trinity, a simplified version of the Iron Triangle.

Seeing this scene, Richard made a judgment in his mind.

"There shouldn't be a city of the undead here, it's more likely to be a map similar to a temple"

If there really is a city of the undead, it is impossible for the other party's lord to make such an arrangement as long as he is not stupid.

Isn't it good to concentrate the army on defense?

Isn’t it just a little bit of food delivery?

With his mind spinning, Richard waved his hand and gave the order decisively.

Since it's not a city of the undead, there's no need for him to be so conservative.

"The troops gathered together, and the Poisonous Scorpion warriors launched an attack, tearing through the opponent's defense line as quickly as possible!"

"The Ax of the Dead hunts down the skeleton mages at the rear, and they must not be allowed to attack!"

"Once the Skeleton Mage casts a spell, the Cursed Pharaoh immediately casts a spell to interrupt!"

No matter what the situation is, giving priority to mages in battle is an eternal truth.

The moment the order was given, all the poisonous scorpion warriors roared and charged forward.

The fighting style of this unit is violent and wild.

The two giant pincers were swung, tearing apart all the skeleton warriors in front of them who dared to block them.

The curved scorpion tail is like a precise spear. Every time it attacks, it will definitely achieve great results.

The fierce Ax of the Dead's battle ax strikes everything with thunder and lightning.

Click~

Each skeleton was shattered into dregs.

Twilight City's attack immediately triggered a counterattack by the undead.

The skeleton warriors surged forward, not knowing what fear was.

The skeleton archer also pulled his bow and arrow at the same time.

The number of 5 teams is enough to form a rain of arrows.

The sharp sound of the bone arrows breaking through the air under the light of the surrounding torch monsters made people's hearts tremble.

Sonorous~

The poisonous scorpion warrior kept swinging his two giant pincers, blocking most of the bone arrows. Even if a few were attacked, it wouldn't matter.

“…*%¥#@*%……”

The skeleton mage swung the bone staff violently as the Twilight City's army tore through the defenses frantically.

The fireball exuding a cold atmosphere condensed out of thin air.

Ghost fire ball, the necromancer's signature skill.

Different from the high-temperature damage of normal fireballs, ghost fireballs cause negative damage and can impact the soul.

A total of 30 blue ghost fire balls pulled long flame tails across the sky.

Bang~

The poisonous scorpion warriors who were in the middle of a fierce battle wanted to escape, but the skeletons were already pressing down on them, and there was nowhere to hide.

Bang~

The ghost fire ball exploded, and the blue flame instantly enveloped the poisonous scorpion warrior.

The surrounding temperature dropped suddenly, as if the refrigerator had been opened. (End of chapter)
