I'm really a necromancer

Chapter 216 The Weird Dark Area (Two in One)

The surrounding environment, except for the things within tens of meters around Yihua himself, which can be directly observed by him, is completely shrouded in a dark world without the slightest light, as if cut off from the light.

"It seems that I have successfully entered the secret world."

After such a thought flashed in Yi Hua's mind, he tried to take two steps forward.

Sure enough, just as Yihua thought in his mind, the bright space that can be observed by himself also moves with Yihua's movement.

Looking at the boundary of the bright space in front, some trees that appeared due to Yihua's movement, and the area behind that was swallowed by the dark space, Yihua exhaled lightly.

For this environment of the secret world, Yi Hua, who has been fighting in the death world that has been shrouded in the fog of death for a long time and also has a visible range, has long been familiar with the road.

After observing briefly for a while, and confirming that there is no danger around and the existence of other apprentices, Yi Hua took out the token issued earlier in his arms.

I saw that under the contact of Yi Hua's spiritual power, a series of information similar to the ranking list was transmitted to Yi Hua's mind with the withdrawn spiritual power.

[Real-time standings for the apprenticeship exam]

[No.1——Rey Fercis——Currently holding points: 1000 points]

[No.2——Milkor Farbouti——Currently holding points: 1000 points]

……

[No.8——Iva Fercis——Currently holds points: 100 points]

【No. 9...】

"The real-time scoreboard of the apprenticeship exam? It seems that the ranking of apprentices on the list will continue to change as the apprenticeship exam progresses."

Yi Hua's eyes flickered slightly, and he thought to himself.

This list can be seen only after entering the secret world and using the spiritual contact token.

This also means that all apprentices in the secret world can directly know the current rankings of other apprentices based on this list.

In the apprenticeship examination, the higher the apprentice's final ranking, the higher the treatment they will receive when they go to the Wizarding Continent General Academy in the future.

The appearance of the real-time scoreboard for the apprenticeship exam also allowed some apprentices who wanted to sprint to the top three, or those who were in the top ranks, to have a rough idea of ​​how many points they should collect.

The list can also be used to confirm the number of apprentices currently existing in the secret world.

After a brief glance and found that the points had not changed yet, Yi Hua withdrew the token.

After trying to summon two transformations, the bone skinners, who are comparable to top second-class apprentices, marched towards the dark area in the distance.

In just a few seconds, the two large skeleton skinners walked out of the bright zone tens of meters around Yihua's body.

The moment the two Great Bone Skinners stepped into the dark area, Yi Hua, who was observing from the perspective of the Great Bone Skinners, was instantly plunged into boundless darkness.

Realizing that through the undead's perception of the soul, going deep into the dark area and expanding the scope of reconnaissance is not feasible, Yi Hua frowned.

"It seems that the darkness in the secret world is not just darkness, but a special phenomenon with the ability to shield perception..."

This possibility flashed in his mind, and Yihua just wanted to take back the two large bone skinners located outside the bright area.

Suddenly, a feeling of heart palpitations came from the soul link of the big bone skinner in the darkness.

"Could it be that there is some kind of danger in the dark zone?"

Yi Hua's heart trembled.

You must know that the rules explained by the fifth-class mentor "Messenger" Rudolph did not mention whether there is any danger in the world of the secret realm other than other apprentices.

Could it be that the other party forgot?Or did the other party deliberately not say anything?
Unable to draw a conclusion, Yi Hua resisted the idea of ​​letting the two bone skinners who felt the danger return.

He decided to let the two bone skinners with strong defenses, who could even defend one or two against third-level attacks, stay where they were, waiting for danger to appear.

As time went by, the sense of crisis from the two big skeleton skinners became more and more intense.

This also means that the danger that exists in the dark zone is approaching the two big bone skinners at an accelerated rate.

Just a few seconds later, Yi Hua frowned when he was holding his breath and perceiving the two skeleton skinners.

Because the danger that originally existed in the perception of the two skeleton skinners suddenly disappeared.

"The danger hidden in the darkness left?"

At the moment when Yihua had such a thought, in the perception of the two big skeleton skinners, the sense of crisis that had suddenly disappeared instantly soared and reached the extreme!
squeak!
A strange sound suddenly sounded, and the soul link of the two bone skinners suddenly set off violent fluctuations, almost completely disconnected.

Yi Hua, who realized that the two skeleton skinners had been severely injured, frowned, and said with a cold snort:
"Want to kill my undead right under my nose?"

The moment this thought flashed across, Yi Hua burst out at an astonishingly terrifying speed.

In just an instant, Yi Hua crossed a distance of tens of meters and arrived at the dark area where the two big skeleton skinners were before.

Appearing in front of Yi Hua's eyes were two skeleton skinners who appeared to be unscathed.

As for danger?The two bone skinners were in an open grass field, not to mention dangerous, not even a single obstacle!
Sensing that the two skeleton skinners no longer warned of danger, Yi Hua frowned and his scalp tingled slightly.

"It's weird, is it possible that the existence of the two big skinners attacking the bones is faster than me? Or is everything I perceived before was an illusion?"

Compared with the former, Yi Hua is more willing to believe the latter.

After all, the speed that Yihua exploded just now has reached the level of a top earth knight.

In addition, most of the participants in the apprenticeship examination are first- and second-class apprentices, and the main enemies are other apprentices.

Logically speaking, in the secret world, there shouldn't be any danger that other apprentices, even the top earth knights, can't catch up with.

"Could it be that the function of lumen stone energy to dispel darkness is not only used for lighting?"

The big bone skinner who was previously in the dark area sensed the approaching danger, but the moment Yi Hua, who was carrying the energy token containing the lumen stone, appeared, the danger disappeared without a trace.

Perhaps the function of lumen stone energy to dispel darkness is not only used for lighting, but also has the function of dispelling unknown dangers in the darkness.

"It seems that Teacher Rudolph has indeed concealed something before. The secret world is not as simple as it seems on the surface..."

Realizing this, Yi Hua also understands why the academy gave the academy competition rankings, and why apprentices with higher ranks such as wizards have the opportunity to enter the world of secret realms earlier.

Because this means that, in this dangerous secret world, these apprentices will have a longer exploration time than other apprentices.

Thinking of this, Yi Hua's eyes flashed, and he summoned a first-class undead that hadn't been used for a long time - the skeleton knight, and commanded him to walk towards the dark area again.

Since the Great Skeleton Skinner is more precious, he decided to use the Skeleton Knight, who is only first-class in strength, to test whether the perceived danger in the dark space can really cause damage.

Just after the skeleton knight left the bright area within tens of meters of Yihua, within a minute, the familiar sense of danger came from the skeleton knight's soul link again.

Due to Yi Hua's purpose this time, he ignored the danger premonition from the Skeleton Knight and waited quietly for the development of the situation.

After a while, the sense of danger from the Skeleton Knight disappeared instantly, and suddenly appeared again.

Feeling the soul link of the skeleton knight fluctuating violently, this time Yihua did not choose to get closer to check it in time, but silently waited for the development of the situation.

Just like that, after about a few seconds, the soul link between the skeleton knight and Yi Hua was suddenly disconnected.

Sensing the disappearing soul link of the skeleton knight, Yi Hua frowned, and instantly burst out at an astonishing speed. With a flash, he appeared at the previous position of the skeleton knight.

Without any delay, Yi Hua's eyes quickly swept around.

This time, Yi Hua also didn't see any suspicious things around him.

All that appeared in front of Yi Hua was the remains of the Skeleton Knight who had collapsed in the open space and lost his soul fluctuations.

Seeing the dead skeleton knight in front of him, Yi Hua's eyes tightened.

In the absence of Yihua's rescue, the Skeleton Knight was indeed dead.

This also means that the sense of danger passed on to Yihua by the undead before is not an illusion, but a real danger.

"Judging from the integrity of the skeleton knight, without the slightest trauma caused by external forces, could it be that the skeleton knight was injured at the soul level?"

However, Yihua did not delay the slightest in these two movements, but neither of them was able to catch a glimpse of the assailant.

"This means that the danger in the dark zone is not an illusion, but a real existence. In other words, the danger in the dark zone is indeed an illusion, but it is an illusion that can cause danger!"

No matter which one it is, it means that there is indeed danger in the dark zone.

Yi Hua hesitated for a while, out of fear of unknown dangers, he temporarily gave up his plan to go deep into the dark area to face the dangers.

After some attempts, Yihua realized that the danger in the dark zone would only appear in the dark zone, and would not pose a threat to the existence in the light zone radiated by the energy of the lumen stone.

Others can move in dark areas even if they don't hold tokens that contain lumen stone energy and can open up bright areas.

But moving in the dark area, not only can't see the environment around you, you can only move forward.

And as time goes by, they will be present in the dark area, and unknown dangers will come to them.

Out of the wizard's curiosity about the unknown, Yi Hua silently thought about the mechanism behind the special phenomenon in the secret world.

After a while, Yi Hua temporarily put away his thoughts and decided to explore the secret world.

In a flash, only ten minutes passed.

During this time, Yi Hua still found no trace of other apprentices.

The resonance stone that can locate other Illuminati apprentices, at this moment, there is no fluctuation of any Illuminati apprentices within the range of [-] meters that it can perceive.

In this regard, Yi Hua did not feel the slightest doubt, but a flash of understanding flashed in his eyes.

Although the secret world is just a fragment of the world, a lean camel is bigger than a horse.

According to Yihua's estimate, this secret world is even many times larger than the area of ​​the academy covering more than ten kilometers around it.

And Yihua himself is No.7's apprentice who entered the secret world.

Even though a few minutes have passed, according to the real-time leaderboard displayed on the token, the number of apprentices in the current secret realm world does not exceed double digits.

Such a small number of apprentices are distributed in this huge secret world, like a drop in the ocean, a grain of sand in the Ganges.

It is completely normal to find no trace of other apprentices.

Yi Hua also understood that it would take at least several hours for all the apprentices to enter the secret world.

As the number of apprentices increases, sooner or later you will meet other apprentices in the future.

During this period of time, compared to looking for traces of other apprentices, it is more important to be familiar with the environment of the secret world and the strange and dangerous phenomena in the dark zone.

Next, Yi Hua spent about half an hour exploring the secret world.

During this period, Yihua accidentally found several lumenites growing on the rocks.

Through the absorption ability of the token, Yi Hua successfully obtained ten units of lumen stone energy from these lumen stones, that is, ten points.

With the increase of points, Yi Hua keenly noticed that his body occupied a radius of tens of meters, and the visible light area increased by about two or three meters in diameter compared to before.

"I don't know if other apprentices enter the light area around me, and the range they can see is according to my calculation or his calculation..."

Yi Hua's eyes flickered slightly when he realized that what the fifth-class mentor Rudolph said was true, and his desire to earn points increased a bit.

After all, in this mysterious world surrounded by eerie darkness, only the energy of the lumen stone, which represents points, can dispel the darkness and expand one's visual range.

During this period of exploration, Yihua not only harvested the energy of lumen stone.

When passing through some areas, some artificially inscribed scarlet characters were also found on the surface of some boulders.

Inscribed on it:

[Do not stay in the dark area for a long time, otherwise it will lead to fatal danger! 】

[The longer you stay in the dark zone, the more likely you are to attract strange forces! 】

[Located around items containing lumen energy, it can temporarily shield the strange power that exists in the dark area! 】

words like that.

"It seems that the previous mentor Rudolph deliberately did not explain the danger here. The survival rules of the secret world need to be explored by yourself."

Realizing this, Yi Hua's expression turned cold, and he stepped up his defense against the weird forces that existed in the darkness.

In Yihua's view, the strange power in the darkness is most likely not related to the fifth-class mentors and apprentice exams, but the power contained in this world fragment which is completely different from the rules of the outside world.

This fragment of the world can actually arouse the covetousness of wizards like the Pagoda Master of the Nine Rings White Pagoda, who are considered strong among official wizards.

He didn't even hesitate to build a wizard formation at the official wizard level to seal and suppress the fragments of this world.

There is a high probability that the power contained in it cannot be resisted by Yi Hua, a third-class apprentice.
