Chapter 110 The Veteran of the Dead
"Finally finished coding, hoo..."

Roger heaved a sigh of relief and leaned back comfortably.

After a short break, he picked up his phone.

……

Today is a rare sunny day in the giant claw sea.

However, compared to the warm sunshine in the Gentle Sea Region, the sun in the Giant Claw Sea Region is more dazzling and scorching hot.

The Green has two or three days to go before reaching the next island.

In the water below the Green, Deep Sea Blood Touch followed closely.

There are small fish passing by along the way, and they are stuffed into its mouth by it to replenish its strength.

After watering the strange grape species as usual, Roger walked out of the small room.

[Yiya yay! 】

At this moment, Iya was pointing at Kadi angrily and babbling. Although she didn't know what she was talking about, it was definitely not a compliment.

On the other hand, Kadi looked embarrassing, trying to restore his image in Iya's heart.

But it was clear that this could not be undone.

After talking to Yas and others, Rogge took out the key.

After teleportation, Rogge reappeared on the familiar road of abandoned bones.

At this time, the road to abandon bones is empty, only Siqi heavy cavalry is waiting quietly.

It is relatively easy for undead monsters such as dead and heavy cavalry, and they don't need to eat or drink at all.

However, it needs Rogge to replenish some mental energy on time.

The avatar of Deep Sea Blood Touch had to be controlled by Rogge to find food.

"First look for a mine near here."

Roger began to search according to his own plan.

Previously, there was a monster on the Road of Bones called Undertaker, and the word mining was mentioned in their description.

It means that there may be a mine near here.

If so, Rogge really doesn't mind learning to mine.

As a person who loves blacksmithing, he will not miss this opportunity.

After searching for a while, Roger really found a mine.
But when he entered, there was a familiar boundary wall in front of the mine road.

Disappointed, Rogge also fell into deep thought.

It seems that the cave is intercepted from the second floor.

Who can do this kind of method?
Or...God?

After thinking, Rogge turned his head and walked towards the pit.

The secret of the cave will be revealed one day, all he has to do now is to clear the last level.

【Death Pit】

After coming to the front of the deep pit with the abandoned heavy horse, one person and one monster stood on the bone claw elevator.

"Move it."

The space of the bone claw elevator is not too big, and the skeleton warhorse under the crotch of the deadly abandoned heavy rider really takes up a lot of space.

Rogge's game character managed to squeeze in.

But it is still very crowded, and it feels like it may fall at any time.

Rogge frowned, and directly controlled the game character to sit on the horse, one behind the other.

Although it looks a bit weird, at least it's not crowded.

After sorting out the inventory, Rogge saved a file when he was ready, and then pulled the lever next to him.

click.

After a soft sound, the bone claw elevator slowly descended towards the deep pit carrying a person, a monster and a horse.

The surrounding light gradually dimmed.

Rogge could see that the edges of the pit were paved with bones, and occasionally bonfire lights would appear. Under the dim light, these bones looked even more terrifying.

Not long after, a prototype large bone platform made of bones appeared in Rogge's eyes, surrounded by bottomless cliffs.

On the bone platform, an abandoned man who looked even more shabby than the abandoned soldier was sitting quietly cross-legged on the ground.

Beside it, stood a long knife with a black scabbard.

With a click, the bone claw elevator stopped.

[Hefeng Cave, third floor. 】

【Dead Skeleton Training Platform】

Finally reached the last floor.

At the same time as this reminder appeared, Rogge also set his sights on the abandoned man in front of him.

【Death Veteran】

[Type: Monster]

[Quality: Boss]

【Level: 16】

[Rank: Extraordinary]

[Explanation: He wakes up from the place abandoned by death and fights in chaos. 】

It seems that it is the boss of the third floor.

This guy seems to be sleeping.

Roger tried to walk down the bone claw elevator quietly, intending to see if he could find a chance to sneak up on him.

However, a string of strange syllables sounded in Rogge's ears.

Flames suddenly ignited in the eye sockets of the abandoned man sitting cross-legged on the bone platform.

Rogge looked at him vigilantly, and secretly took out the skeleton staff.

As if realizing that Rogge couldn't understand, the abandoned man paused for a moment, and then spoke again.

【You don't belong here, young man. 】

The voice was deep and vicissitudes, like an old man.

However, to Rogge's surprise, the voice sounded in his mind just like the mermaid Naya's ability before.

This stopped Rogge's movement of secretly condensing the bone stripping technique.

After frowning and hesitating for a moment, he stopped what he was doing.

Forget it, even if you can gain some advantage first, don't be in a hurry for this moment.

Now that you can communicate, let's see what the boss is going to say before reacting.

[Of course I don't belong here. 】

Isn't this nonsense?
You are all a pile of bones, but I have flesh on my body, so it's strange that I belong here.

After listening to Rogge's words, the dead veteran nodded slightly.

[Since you can get here, you must have completed the necessary battle. 】

While speaking, the dead general slowly got up.

In a box behind him, equipment parts cast from white bones flew out and floated beside it, and put on a suit of armor when it opened and closed automatically.

Finally, a broken gray-white blood-stained cloak flew over and landed on its shoulders.

Clang!

The black long knife showed its edge.

In just one breath, the undead veteran who looked like he was about to be vulnerable to a single blow turned into a tall and straight undead general with a sharp temperament.

[Young man, can you use a knife? 】

The tip of the knife was slowly raised, pointing directly at Rogge.

If conditions permit, Rogge would like to show his blade like a swordsman now.

but……

【……Won't. 】

Roger said with a little embarrassment.

When he said this, the veteran of the dead skeleton also fell silent.

【...Really not? 】

[Really not. 】

Roger said honestly.

After hearing these words, the veteran general of the dead bones sighed, and sat down cross-legged again, the spiritual fire in his eyes became weaker.

He seemed disappointed that Rogge couldn't use a knife.

Seeing this situation, an idea suddenly popped up in Roger's mind.

There was an attempt in his tone.

[Perhaps... I can learn? 】

Hearing this, the dead general raised his head and looked at him.

It was quiet all around, and the atmosphere began to become subtle.

【...Forget it, if the last enemy I meet doesn't know how to use a knife, I will regret it for the rest of my life. 】

The dead veteran muttered to himself.

Then, with a thought, a skeletal hand rose from the ground, lifted a black knife from the box behind it, and floated in front of Rogge.

[If you are willing to learn, the old man will teach you everything. 】

[But you need to accept the old man's condition, are you willing? 】

Roger's eyes lit up now.

What boss are you in a hurry to fight?Learn skills first!

So he nodded quickly, and took the knife given by the veteran of the dead bones.

【Long Knife】

【Type: Weapon】

[Quality: Green]

[Attack Power: 12]

[Description: A long knife of excellent quality. 】

Seeing this, the dead veteran also put forward his own conditions.

[After you finish your studies, use the blade in your hand to find a way to really kill me and kill me. 】

The voice of the dead veteran was calm.

After listening to the request of the veteran general, Rogge was a little puzzled.

【why? 】

Regarding Rogge's question, the Veteran Skeleton remained silent for a moment.

【...Abandoned by death is not something to be thankful for. 】

So... is this enough to live?

【Is it bad to live? 】

【Why do you seek death? 】

Roger frowned.

Along the way, the abandoned people he saw seemed to be trying to commit suicide.

But here comes the question, why do they commit suicide?

【...It seems that you have observed a lot. 】

The dead veteran spoke slowly.

[Life represents limited memory. 】

[Death represents eternal sleep. 】

【...After being abandoned by death, the soul of the abandoned person wanders between life and death, unable to live or die. 】

[In the life of the abandoned person who knows no end, they are in a chaotic state of alternating life and death. Sometimes memories will emerge, and sometimes they will suddenly disappear, followed by pain like a furnace of steel...]

[You will doubt, you will be confused, unable to find direction, unable to recognize yourself...]

[Few souls can maintain themselves in such a long period of mental torture. 】

【This is the soul abandoned by death. 】

The dead general sat cross-legged on the ground, stroking the long knife in his hand.

After listening, Roger remained silent.

Indeed, if it is true what the veteran of the dead bones said, then the mental torture suffered by the dead is enough to wipe out a soul's desire for existence.

【……I see. 】

Roger nodded.

But he couldn't resist asking a question.

[Can you really not commit suicide? 】

From his point of view, the weak point of those abandoned people he killed was very obvious, and it was in the skull.

Could it be that the dead and abandoned people he killed couldn't be counted as real death?

Regarding this, the veteran general did not speak.

He raised his palm.

Then, a shocking scene appeared.

Below the cliff of the Dead Skeleton Cultivation Platform, countless soul flames rose slowly along with the bones and palms, like countless stars in the sky, illuminating the surroundings.

【Bones are just the carrier for the soul. 】

【Residing in the carrier, at least you can still feel the existence. 】

[Without the carrier, only the eternal torture of life and death remains. 】

The old and flat voice of the dead general resounded.

【Is the abandoned person I killed also in here? 】

Rogge was shocked, looking at the soul flames around him.

The dead veteran nodded slowly.

[You should have seen the appearance of the abandoned ones. 】

【Lying in a coffin, in a tomb, hanging yourself up, or digging like crazy...】

【Their purpose is only one...】

"Nesthetize your pain."

Roger in front of the screen said so.

At this time, he already understood.

Why are the abandoned people unwilling to break their own bones and shells even though they are suffering.

Because, compared to living in the dark and mental torture, they might as well hold a body and find some trivial things to do.

It turned out that they were just a bunch of poor people...

At this moment, Rogge suddenly remembered and realized something.

His eyes lit up, he beckoned, and he abandoned his heavy horse and stepped forward.

[What about his soul?Are you still here? 】

After listening to Rogge's words, the Veteran Skeleton paused, as if he was feeling something.

After a while, he suddenly turned his head to look at Roger.

【……how did you do it? 】

There was a hint of disbelief in the voice of the dead veteran.

Seeing this, Rogge immediately realized that his only ability seemed to be able to get rid of the strange state of the abandoned.

[This is one of my abilities. 】

Roger responded.

[But I don't know where its soul went. 】

Although Rogge has used the talent of Huey's Soul for a long time, he is not clear about some details.

Rogge didn't know where the souls of those creatures that originally had souls were turned into clones by themselves, or whether they were swallowed or obliterated by their own talents.

The dead veteran didn't care about it.

[In any case, it will definitely not be worse than it is now. 】

His tone calmed down.

[Since you have this ability, my request should not be difficult for you. 】

[However, before that, I will teach you how to use a knife as agreed. 】

After all, he stood up.

[Now, draw the knife. 】

Seeing this, Rogge took a deep breath, and pulled out the long knife from the scabbard awkwardly.

And just after he drew his sword, the dead veteran attacked with a sword at an extremely fast speed.

Rogge relied on his body's reaction and subconsciously swung his knife to block.

when--

At the same time as the sound of gold and iron crossing sounded, Rogge also received a prompt from the game.

[You have been attacked by a dead general, your health is -120. 】

"I rely on."

Roger looked at the knife wound on the shoulder of the game character and his mouth twitched.

If it weren't for the fact that the veteran of the dead skeleton had stopped his movements at this time, he would even think that what he said before was for the current knife...

Seeing Rogge's knife wound, the veteran of the dead bones seemed to be stunned for a moment.

[I forgot that you still need to recuperate. 】

The veteran of the dead body pondered for a moment, and after this confrontation, he also knew the depth of Rogge.

[I also need to eat to maintain life, right? 】

"..."

What else could Rogge say, he could only nod his head.

【How did you get in here? 】

If the skeleton veteran still had eyebrows, they must have been wrinkled into a ball by now.

After Rogge thought for a while, he told about the Cave of the Veteran Skeleton. Of course, it was impossible to say everything. He was not stupid enough to show his heart to an abandoned man he had just met.

He also wondered if the veteran of the dead bones had any knowledge of the cave's secrets.

[Able to freely enter and exit the barrier...]

The dead veteran was silent for a moment, as if he was carefully looking at Rogge.

【I see. 】

[Since you have such ability, then go back to rest and recuperate first. 】

[For creatures, injuries will affect performance, which is not conducive to your current study. 】

The dead general put his knife back into its sheath, returned to the bone platform and continued to sit cross-legged.

Roger glanced at the time in the real world.

It's getting late now, it's almost time to rest.

So he nodded.

Just as he was about to leave, the veteran of the skeletons spoke again.

[If my attitude towards you is unfamiliar after a while, then I will trouble you to repeat what happened just now to the old man. 】

After hearing this, Roger was a little surprised.

But after thinking for a while, he found the reason.

The dead veteran is also a deserter, so he will naturally receive the mental torture mentioned earlier.

Roger doesn't know how he stayed sober for so long, though.

[Also, you can take these things away too. 】

[Presumably they are prepared for you. 】
