Otherworldly Skeleton

Lu Yan was tied up with the rogues, and was taken to Kahui City by the army belonging to Kaman. On the way, he heard the complaints from the escorted skeletons on both sides, and it was only then that Lu Yan realized that the bee passing the mountain just now was also the ghost of this group of skeletons.

The Qianggu who was undercover in the Soul Stealer did not gain enough trust, so although he knew that the lair was near the valley, he didn't know the exact location, so they ordered the skeletons to scatter around the valley to search for it. I expected to step on the old nest of the mountain-crossing bee, and lost the lives of hundreds of war bones, but fortunately, this skeleton army is not large in number, and the skeletons and generals are very powerful. Fleeing in panic.

Only then did the scene where Lu Yan encountered the mountain bee queen just now.

Lu Yan secretly thought that it was really bad luck to come out this time. First he encountered a black shop, then he was swallowed by a giant butterfly, and finally he encountered an undercover ambush. It was really not going well.He couldn't help but think of the time when Karen Val vowed to introduce himself to sell bone souls. Lu Yanxin said that the ideas of this black-bellied dragon were indeed worse than the last.

But then again, this time it’s not all harvest, the night is long, Lu Yan put his attention back to the essence of life, since he left the mountain, this xo film began to release the soul again , One thing releases the living soul twice, this is the first time Lu Yan has encountered it.

The speed of the release of the living soul is still so gentle, as gentle as clear water brushing the surface of the bone, although the amount is not much, but it lasts for a long time, within a few hours of leaving the valley, it has been continuously released.

Since skeletons are very sensitive to living souls, at first Lu Yan was worried that the living souls released from the life essence would be discovered by other skeletons, but when he deliberately approached Andelina and Rui Sien, he asked them if they felt the living souls. When looking at the soul, the answers he got were all negative, so Lu Yan was relieved that the living soul released from the essence of life would only be ingested by him alone.

This is the same as killing a human warrior with your own hands, unless it is to leapfrog and kill too strong enemies, such as Katharin; The living soul that kills the target will not be leaked to other skeletons, and this phenomenon is called "spirit priority" on Bone Encyclopedia.

In some sense, the priority of dementia implies the inexplicable relationship between the living soul and the skeleton body. This directional choice must have its reasons, and the living soul has become more mysterious than it sounds, it seems It is not just a "thing", but more like a "living creature" with life and subjectivity.

Of course, Lu Yan is not in the mood to discuss such esoteric topics as "what exactly is a living soul?" He only needs to know that the living soul released from the essence of life will not be noticed by other skeletons.

When it was dawn, Lu Yan was promoted to another level. Since he had been prepared for a long time, he put his right hand in the cloak wrapped around his waist very xo, covering up the light of the upgrade, and no skeleton noticed him xo Bone's move.

When it was six xo again, it was another xo level, and then stopped releasing the living soul.Lu Yan's effect on this life essence film has been confirmed. It can store living souls, store those living souls in the surrounding space that cannot be absorbed by himself or other skeletons, and release them slowly after the battle. I don't know if it's a coincidence, it's just enough to upgrade myself to xo level.

Almost without thinking too much, Lu Yan immediately understood how precious this life essence is.

There is an upper limit to the amount of souls that a skeleton can absorb in a short period of time. For example, last time Lu Yan accidentally killed two thousand human soldiers in the east of the Tunliang Camp, but he only lit up three joints on the spot, and the three xo level is generally The upper limit of skeletons, unless there are extremely special circumstances, very few skeletons can be upgraded more than three times in a few minutes.

The Bonepedia explains this phenomenon in this way: "The soul is to the skeleton, just like the food is to the human being. Since human beings need to eat three meals a day for 20 years to grow from a child to an adult, how can we expect the skeleton to be promoted in one go?" What about becoming a royal bone?"

That is to say, skeletons also have an upper limit for absorbing living souls. If they exceed the threshold of level three, they will no longer be able to absorb them. Phenomena, Lu Yan has experienced it several times, and knows that this is an absolutely true fact.

However, the emergence of the essence of life has broken through this "three-level hurdle".

This film is like providing an additional pocket for Lu Yan. First store all the living souls absorbed by Lu Yanfa, and then wait for him to get rid of the battle and digest the living souls absorbed before, and then put the pocket The material in it was poured out to help Lu Yan upgrade to another level.

This was the case when he killed Qing Die just now. Lu Yan was promoted to three consecutive levels in Qing Die's body, but after he came out, he was promoted to another level when he walked to the bandit's lair.With the help of life essence, the upper limit of Lu Yan's xng upgrade is equivalent to being expanded to four levels. This kind of substance that breaks through common sense should be called a very domineering existence.

"It is impossible to be promoted to three levels in a row, so the greatest effect of life essence should be in the fighting." Lu Yan pondered as he walked: "Those who killed the enemy before they had time to absorb the living soul died There are many skeletons, and the living souls flocking to them are floating in the battlefield. Originally, every skeleton has an equal opportunity to share them, but obviously the essence of life is better at absorbing these free living souls, so the battle last night Among them, although there are not many souls in the body of the mountain bee, it still has enough weight for me to upgrade..."

"My lord, we are in trouble. It's not easy to escape from this city." Rui Sien's ghost words interrupted Lu Yan's thoughts. He raised his head and looked thousands of meters away. There was no city anywhere. , with only a marginal forest.

"What's the matter, what kind of city is this?" Lu Yan saw torches lit like stars on the edge of the forest, and there was a huge cave opening where the torches were most densely populated, and there were skeletons constantly shuttling through the opening. There is a huge city under the forest.

Rui Sien's voice was slightly bitter: "My lord, this should be the underground city in the shuttle."

There are many ways to build a city with skeletons, such as underwater city, dungeon city, mountain city, cliff city... Either it is to adapt to local conditions and rely on the natural and dangerous terrain to build the city. Below the forest in front of you is Kahui, the main city of Kaman's leader. The city is a third-level city with an 18-kilometer underground soul gap.

"My lord, the bark of that kind of tree is black, dry and full of cracks, the leaves are large and sparse, without moisture, it looks like hard leather, it should be an anti-rot tree, the area of ​​this anti-rot forest may be hundreds square kilometers, it is a natural danger against skeletons." Rui Sien tried his best not to bring too much pessimism into his soul words, but facing such a closed city, he really couldn't think of any possibility of escaping .

Lu Yan also understood that anti-rot trees are rare on the Skull Continent, but each one is terrifying, because a liquid will be secreted from its trunk. Once the skeleton is contaminated by this liquid, the part will The bone will lose the ability to absorb the rotting soul, and even if it is cut off, it will not grow back. In severe cases, the entire skeleton completely loses its response to the rotting soul. In the end, it has to wait for the bone to lose and die within a few months.

This is very similar to an incurable disease in humans, but the anti-rot tree is even more terrifying, because human diseases still have an infection process, and sometimes can be cured by light magic, but the anti-rot tree is different, as long as its juice is stained The body of the skeleton will immediately produce damage that cannot be eliminated. It is so terrible that even if there is an anti-rot forest in the territory of many collar bones, they dare not use it to defend the city.

But Lu Yan didn't expect that such a terrifying tree would have a leader who dared to build a city under him.

"Rui Sien, is it possible that we are just passing by, and we shouldn't actually build a city underground in the anti-corrosion forest." Lu Yan asked Rui Sien.

Rui Sien shook his head lightly: "No, this must be the main city. The underground city built in the anti-rot forest is recorded in the history of the Skull Continent. Such a huge anti-rot forest, and there is an underground soul gap just below it, judging by the scale of the underground opening, the city below must not be xo, we are really unlucky this time."

As if to verify Rui Sien's judgment, the strong bone skeleton escorted on both sides shouted: "Hurry up, we are going to enter the city soon!"

The bandit skeletons who were bound showed desperate looks. The closed city of Kahui, this city with a glorious name is an out-and-out underground fortress. Standing still, this underground city has contributed a lot.

"It really is Kahui City." Lu Yan followed the team and quickened his pace, while guessing, he asked Rui Sien: "Isn't this forest afraid of fire?"

"Anti-rot tree and white wood are two extremes. It is very fire-resistant, and some humans even buy dried anti-rot tree boards to make fireproof building materials."

"What about the water attack card Huicheng?" Lu Yan asked casually depressed.

Rui Sien knew that Lu Yan was also clueless, so he had no choice but to reply: "My lord, there are soul gaps in the skeleton city, and those who are not afraid of water..."

"Yes, water and fire are not invading, it's really troublesome." Lu Yan sighed: "And we can't dig holes to escape from the top, we can only choose the holes around him to escape. As long as Kaman orders the city gates to be closed, we are absolutely There is no escape."

"Basically so." Although Rui Sien also wanted to cheer up, the situation was really bad.

Lu Yan was so worried that he wanted to run away on the spot, but Jiang Gu was walking tens of meters ahead, and there were dozens of riding bones surrounding him. If he escaped now, he would only seek his own death.

"My lord, if you want Anderina and I to attract their attention, you first..."

"Shut up!" Lu Yan stopped Rui Sien's plan to repay him with death: "Things haven't gotten so bad yet, I'm going to take you all out alive."

"Yes!" Rui Sien agreed with shame and gratitude, no longer rushing to die, but racked his brains to think of a strategy to get out of trouble.

Lu Yan stared at the entrance of Kahui City, which was getting bigger and bigger, like looking at a giant beast that gradually opened its bloody mouth, and he became a lamb walking step by step into the sky of the giant beast...but what about the lamb? , the worries in Lu Yan's heart gradually receded, and a strong fighting spirit surged up. The strong wind and lng passed by several times, and I saw several collar bones. Killed, didn't tng come over again and again!

As Lenzait said, you will never know where your limit is if you don't work hard!

In the next step, Lu Yanmai was extremely firm, since he couldn't escape, he went to this underground fortress and turned it upside down!
