From Skeleton Soldiers to King of the Undead - Chapter 217

c214 The ancient city of death and the waters of the Styx

After the monster died, no magic stone was left behind. It completely turned into nothingness and disappeared completely. Everything just now seemed like an illusion.

“It’s so dangerous…huhu…”

Philip and Dio stared, panting slightly, their hearts beating rapidly, and they had not yet recovered from the tension that almost killed them just now.

This world is very dangerous, and it is not a place they can come to. Only those who are at least level 6 and above are qualified to enter and go to the inheritance place.

Better than nothing…

After killing the monster with one blow, Roja rubbed the skull ring and felt that the spell of the hand of death was better than expected.

After that, everyone crossed a hillside, and a black city of death appeared in the distance.

The ancient black city wall is like a towering mountain, inlaid with countless animal and human bones.

Thousands of souls were wandering over the city, and wisps of black energy rose up, turning into large clouds in the sky, blocking the bloody moonlight.

That must be the base camp of the Death Lord mentioned by the monster.

The water of the Styx should be in that city, and the Death Lord is the last test.

Dio felt a little scared and whispered to Philip:

“Why do I feel that there is a very ominous atmosphere in that city? I’m afraid there are very dangerous people there. Do you want to remind your uncle to be careful…”

Not to mention him, the Holy Light Mage, Philip felt that the closer he got to the city in front, the more he felt a tremor coming from the depths of his soul.

But Roja had no intention of stopping and moved forward with the lich and carrion corpses.

Phillip swallowed nervously and said to the fat mage beside him: “It’s okay, let’s go…”

“Rumble…”

As they approached, the huge door of the ancient city slowly opened.

“Ahhhh!” “Haaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa””

The shouts of killing shook the sky,

Composed of skeletons, lichs, bone demons, ghosts…the overwhelming army of the undead poured out from the opened city gate.

Leading the way was a skeleton knight with blue flames burning all over his body and riding a bone horse.

Both he and the bone horse were wearing armor, wielding a long knife in their hands, and leading the charge with the momentum of a brave general on the battlefield.

The army of undead behind it kept pouring out from the tall city gate. It was vaguely visible that the undead in the city were hard to see at a glance, and the number was astonishing.

Roja judged from the aura that there were probably hundreds of thousands of undead in this city, far exceeding the mountains of the undead.

Not only are their numbers astonishing, but their strength cannot be underestimated. High-level undead can be seen everywhere, and many have even reached the awakening and shackles realm.

Such a terrifying undead army could easily overwhelm the Holy Empire, devastate millions of square kilometers of land, and destroy one country after another.

At this time, the skeleton general reined in his horse and stopped, brandishing his sword and shouting at Roja and others:

“Who are you? How dare you invade the territory of Lord Yili, the Lord of millions of undead, the Lord who transcends death, the immortal who records history?!”

Good guy, the name is quite exaggerated.

Roja felt that if he did not meet a strong man above level six, the Death Lord who ruled this plain might really be worthy of those titles.

The Lich took two steps forward, as if he was preparing to respond to the skeleton general. He probably wanted to say Roja’s name as well.

‘We are here to get the water of the Styx, not to play lord games with each other. ’

Roya stopped it and then stretched out his left hand.

“Buzz–” A hundred-meter-long black palm emerged from the void and struck directly towards the city wall.

“boom!”

The terrifying city wall, which had an unknown number of years of history and was inlaid with countless bones, shattered in an instant, collapsed like building blocks, and stirred up countless smoke and dust.

The stones of the city wall lit up with densely packed magic words, which had been carved by generations of city lords themselves. They were enough to withstand ordinary super-level spells.

But it was useless. The huge palm lifted up, slapped down, lifted up, slapped down… “Boom!” In just three or four blows, the entire wall of the ancient city of death completely disappeared.

Anyone with any intelligence among the undead would have already started to panic and flee. Tens of thousands of troops instantly collapsed, throwing off their armor and armor. Some fled towards the city, and some fled further away…

“hateful!”

At this time, a figure flew out of the city, with powerful undead power surging in his body.

It is the lord of this city of death, the source of ominousness and trembling for Dio and Philippe, and its true form is an extremely powerful ghost.

Death Lord Yili’s whole body was shrouded in a black mist, with only the outline of a human figure and a pair of scarlet eyes exposed.

“Ah…” Philip and Dio groaned in pain as soon as they saw those eyes, and their spirits and souls felt like they were polluted by mud.

“Grant death to you!”

The Death Lord quickly rushed towards Roja and the others. It was filled with terrifying magic power and seemed to be about to launch some kind of magic attack.

“Where is the water of Styx?”

While asking questions calmly, Roja took out the cursed gun and stabbed out a blurry shadow of the gun.

“咻咻咻咻…” In an instant, with the dense sound of breaking through the air, a black stream of light like a rainstorm was launched from the gun blade!

——The demon king’s black death ray!

“Ah! Ahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh happening happening happening happening!”

The Death Lord screamed, and his body was pierced by countless beams of light. The entire illusory figure almost disappeared, and most of his breath was weakened at once.

The black death ray has the effect of dissolving the soul, and the damage to a soul like it is more fatal than ordinary attacks, causing it to suffer heavy damage instantly.

“Ahhhh…”

The ghost wailed and hurriedly tore open a crack in space, got inside and disappeared.

This powerful Death Lord simply abandoned his city and subordinates and fled.

“…” Regarding such a simple result, Philip and Dio looked at each other, completely unexpected.

Only then did they understand that Roja had restrained most of his aura towards them, otherwise it might be more terrifying than facing the Death Lord.

“Let’s go.”

Roja put away his spear and led the rest of the people into the city.

According to the memory he read, he found the water of the Styx in an underground chamber in the palace.

It was a pool less than ten meters long and wide, with half a pool of light black transparent liquid inside, exuding an extremely cold aura.

Roja condensed a curling pot, filled it with a pot of water and gave it to Philip.

“The energy of the Styx water is very strong. This should be enough for your current body.”

“Thank you.” Philip took the curling stone.

Dio beside him could only look at it with greed. After all, although this thing was a treasure, it was poison to him, a Holy Light Mage, and had no benefit at all.

Roja immersed himself in the pool water and suddenly felt a huge amount of cold energy pouring into his body from all around.

At this time, his bones, soul fire, and magic power began to transform under the influence of the water of the Styx.
