From Skeleton Soldiers to King of the Undead - Chapter 185

c182 The growing army of the undead

“Go together!”

In the mountain forest, four adventurers were besieging a three-meter-tall rock giant.

“Roar–!”

The rock giant rotated its upper body, waved its arms wildly, and threw out the afterimages of heavy punches.

From time to time, several stone thorns will be sprayed out from the chest and back, whistling towards the adventurers, and large areas of ground thorn spells will appear on the ground around it.

It seems that as the number of enemies increases, its attack methods become more abundant and its attacks become more fierce.

“Ahem! Ouch!”

A warrior was hit by a stone thorn in the steel armor on his chest. He felt short of breath and nauseated and couldn’t help but retreat.

“Although their strength is still at the third level, the elemental puppets here are much stronger than ordinary monsters!”

Just when several adventurers were forced to retreat by the endless stabbing spells, they were helpless.

“Ta, ta…”

The sound of footsteps sounded from behind them, and at the same time there was a blast of cold air.

“what?”

They hurriedly looked back and saw a humanoid monster that looked like a skeleton soldier.

——The body is snow-white, wearing irregular blue ice crystal armor, holding an ice crystal sword in his hand, and his whole body is exuding wisps of white cold mist.

“Huh? New elemental puppet?”

“But the ice attribute magic seems to be only at the second level, which is not even as good as high-level monsters.”

A mage stretched out his finger and fired a magic missile, blowing the skeleton soldiers into pieces.

“So weak.” “It just disappeared. No reward?”

The earth element puppet born from the ruins did not attack again after the adventurers retreated, but stood there and watched them.

“It’s a little weird.”

The mage frowned, “That one seems to be a skeleton soldier, but it is much stronger than ordinary skeleton soldiers. It can feel the strong power of frost and the power of the undead…”

At this moment, the scenery in front of them blurred, and another figure was teleported over.

At this time, the expressions of the four adventurers suddenly changed!

It was a slender figure wearing ice crystal armor similar to a skeleton soldier, with pure white hair and skin.

It was naked, without any weapons, and the ice-blue eyes on the young woman’s face were as dull and emotionless as those of a doll.

And the biting cold air radiating from its body made several adventurers feel cold to the bone, and their whole bodies were suddenly frozen with goosebumps.

“An elemental puppet approaching the fourth level?!” The mage’s expression changed and he exclaimed.

The next second, the female warrior’s lips moved, and a hoarse voice came out: “Get out of here, that is my prey…”

It pointed toward the rock giant ahead.

“Which necromancer are you?”

An adventurer said solemnly: “Adventurers cannot snatch hunting targets from each other. This is what we discovered first…”

“My master is not an adventurer.” The female warrior said.

Saying that, Oliba took a step forward,

“Crunch, crunch…”

A large sheet of white frost suddenly appeared on the ground, spreading rapidly towards the adventurers, freezing everything in its path.

“Let’s go!” The mage’s expression changed drastically. He waved his wand to create an earth-yellow barrier, then turned around and left quickly with his companions.

The frost touched the barrier left by the mage. The barrier was only blocked for a moment, then completely frozen, and then shattered all over the ground with a “bang” like glass.

“Roar–!”

The frost spread to the rock giant’s body, causing it to roar.

“Dong, dong, dong…”

Being attacked again, it took heavy steps and rushed towards the enemy.

“Whoosh! Whoosh!”

Sharp rock thorns shot out from its shoulders and chest, hitting Oriba’s armor, which stood motionless, and turned it into pieces.

Occasionally, rock thorns penetrated the female warrior’s exposed waist and thighs, and the translucent holes healed completely in the blink of an eye, leaving no trace.

The rock giant rushed forward, suddenly raised his heavy fist, and hit Oliba hard on the head——

“boom!”

A sharp fist flashed past, and the rock giant exploded!

Countless large and small fragments rushed into the sky, and then fell down one by one, scattering all over the ground with white frost condensing on the surface.

“solved……”

Oliba spread her palms expressionlessly, revealing a red crystal.

“Crunch, crunch…” It moved its neck and arms, feeling that its strength had become stronger after the battle.

It even feels like it can think about more things, and the vocabulary and sentences it can speak are also richer.

“Then, keep looking for the next one…”

Oliba left here, and her figure disappeared in a wave of spatial fluctuations that blurred the surrounding scenery.

…

at the same time,

Along with the female warriors, there were hundreds of other frost undead and monsters operating in the ruins.

Skeleton soldiers and ghost soldiers explore the path, while high-level monsters in the legion will kill the elemental puppets to obtain the pseudo-philosopher’s stone fragments of varying qualities inside.

Under the arrangement of the maze teleportation mechanism, they will not encounter adventurers who are much stronger than themselves, but the number of frost undead is enough to make the adventurers’ scalps numb.

“What is this? Undead?!”

“Why are there so many?! Run!”

“What’s going on? A new monster appears in the ruins this time?”

…

Free points +0.5, +1, +0.2…

Roja took a red crystal fragment from the hand of the sheep-headed demon and threw it into his mouth.

[Free Points +1]

‘Keep looking. ’

After receiving the order, the sheep-headed demon lowered his head slightly, immediately turned around and flew away.

Hmm…it actually nodded?

Roja was a little surprised.

As his strength increased, the strength of the earliest transformed Frost Necrons generally increased by one level.

Now even the most ordinary skeleton soldiers almost have the strength and speed of a second-level adventurer.

Now, their intelligence is also improving rapidly, and undead are more likely to appear intelligent than ordinary monsters, and their growth rate seems to be faster.

Frost necromancers like Oliba and the witch Anna can now speak. They don’t need to be commanded at all times and can complete complex commands.

…

what?

Hal held the sword tightly with one hand and the teleportation gem given by Roja with the other, looking at the monster that appeared in front of him warily.

It was a female spirit body that looked like a witch, with wisps of white mist lingering all over its body. The flowing cold magic power made him feel the threat of death.

If there was a real fight, he probably wouldn’t be able to hold on for more than a second before he would be frozen.

So, Hal grabbed the teleportation stone and was ready to escape at any moment.

“…” However, the witch looked at the boy twice, then silently turned around and floated away.

Didn’t attack me?

After confirming that the monster had really left, Hal was filled with fear and let out a sigh of relief.
