  Chapter 2 Skeleton Soldiers

Rhodes observed the terrain and found that there is a similar article There are obvious passages in the front and back of the shaped space. The one channel is where the roar came from before. The channel is relatively long and narrow, while the other channel has only a little light, which is not comparable to the fluorescence in this long space.

"Because the denser the death energy, the faster the transformation of undead creatures, these corpses should be placed in the position closest to the main tomb here. Then, this should be the closest to the tomb in the tomb."

"The apprentice will definitely arrange a part of the undead as guards in the passage that came forward. The side where the roar is heard is the passage, and the other side leads to the main tomb. The undead mage will definitely not think of anyone.

The guards who can cross the passage directly enter the main tomb, it shouldn't be dangerous in the tomb."

"Go to the tomb to see if there are any materials, after all, you can't deal with the in the passage with your hands. Undead."

As soon as he thought of this, Rhodes began to move, carefully crossing the corpse displayed at his feet, and walked slowly into the tomb.

With the help of the dim light in the tomb, Rhodes observed the situation in the tomb. There were a lot of materials piled up on both sides of the tomb, including some valuable items scavenged from the village, enough for one person to eat. Half a month's dry food, as well as several sets of worn leather armor, a few rusty iron swords are stacked in the corners, which should be used to arm undead creatures.

There is an intact coffin at the end of the tomb. Although it has not been carefully observed, the death energy it emits represents that a middle-high-level undead creature is sleeping inside.

Seeing this, Rhodes stepped forward to select and put on a set of leather armor that looked relatively intact, and then selected a fairly complete iron sword from the corner of the wall. Although I didn't take a close look at the system's evaluation, Rhodes also knew that their attributes were not very good from the appearance of these items.

…………

【Old leather armor】

Equipment requirements: none

Basic attribute: armor+3, Durable 13/20

Review: Instead of putting hope on it, put hope on your movement method.

…………

【Rusty Iron Sword】

Equipment Requirements: None

Basic Attribute: Kill +3, Durability 4/10

Review: An iron sword that has been placed for an unknown period of time, once well maintained, it can still fight for you for a period of time.

…………

With the best gear in the situation, Rhodes is ready to go. According to Rhodes' guess, since the attribute panel is still there, and various equipment can also display attributes, the way to obtain EXP will not change much.

Armed, Rhodes returned to where the corpses had been displayed, and then ambled toward the passageway outside the tomb.

Arriving in the passage, Rhodes took a look at the terrain and found that the road had changed from the original open space to a narrow one. In this case, this is undoubtedly good news, which means that Rhodes does not have to face more than one road at the same time. enemy.

Continuing to move forward slowly, Rhodes can clearly hear some meaningless growls. Rhodes concentrated one's mind, clenched his weapon, looked towards the darkness within the passage.

Rhodes decides that the first enemy he will face will be the Skeletons. Although the full picture of the enemy has not yet been seen, the skeleton body undoubtedly reveals its identity.

Skeleton soldiers, low-level undead creatures, have attributes that are slightly higher than adult men except physique, only retain the most basic battle awareness, and can't beat well-trained Swordsman without undead mage control. On a larger battlefield, it can only be used to consume the enemy's physical strength, and together with the walking corpses, it is called the two big cannon fodders on the battlefield.

There has been a debate in the player forums about who is the most rubbish undead creature, the skeleton soldier or the walking corpse, but these are of no use to the current Rhodes, because the body of Rhodes is still developing, and its own attribute is not even comparable to the average for adult men.

"Can you only fight hard..."

Rhodes sighed, if you want to kill the skeleton soldier, unless you decapitate it, you can only deal damage to the fire of the undead. Energy consumption is light, which is commonly known as running out of life.

Because he didn't know the number of enemies behind the passage, and the undead mage he might face, Rhodes obviously didn't want to be too entangled with the skeleton soldiers in front of him. In the case of a slightly worse attribute, he could only think of a way. Behead it.

This kind of skill of putting one's life completely on the fight is actually a very disadvantageous choice. If there are other better choices, Rhodes will definitely not choose to forcibly beheaded, in a battle. It is much easier to get attributes and other advantages.

The main reason is that the basic attribute of this body is too poor. If it is the attribute of a normal adult man, Rhodes is confident that he will use his fighting skills to consume the skeleton soldiers. But Rhodes won't complain, after all, the battle is still to be fought, it just needs to be changed in a different way.

Rhodes' in-situ thinking was delayed for some time, and no one knew what would happen when the undead mage apprentice came back.

Thinking of this, Rhodes glanced at the feet of all around, then bent down to pick up an egg-sized stone, and then slammed it towards the skeleton soldiers in front of him.

Due to the poor lighting and low attribute, the stone did not hit the skull of the skeleton soldier as Rhodes thought, but hit the sternum of the skeleton soldier. The impact brought by the stone made the skeleton soldier retreat. two steps.

The characteristics of the undead creatures made the skeleton soldiers not be surprised by the sudden attack, but directly charged towards Rhodes with a knife after stabilizing their pace.

The skeletons charged up to Rhodes, then slashed at Rhodes with a sharp slash.

It stands to reason that in order to deal with the impact of the Skeleton Soldier, Rhodes should retreat and parry while looking for an opportunity to counterattack, but Rhodes did not do so, but instead greeted the Skeleton Soldier when it was about to arrive. With its attack, the sword in its hand slashed diagonally upwards, and at the same time, its body bent obliquely in an unnatural posture.

If someone is watching at the moment, they will find that it is not so much that Rhodes's sword pierced the cervical spine of the skeleton soldier when the strength of his arm is maximized, it is better that the skeleton soldier actively uses the cervical vertebra to meet it. Rhodes' stab slammed into it, and Rhodes' body deftly evaded the skeleton's attack by a tiny margin.

Bah!

With a crisp sound, a skull fell to the ground, the Soul Fire in the skull slowly extinguished, and Rhodes also collapsed from exhaustion at this time, resting against the wall beside him, calming down the violent heartbeat.

Although the previous battle was very short, and the winner was decided in just an instant, it brought a lot of consumption, especially the mental consumption.

It seems that Rhodes killed the skeleton soldiers with a simple sword, but it contains great danger.

The first is the timing of the shot. Once the timing is not right, the blade is not stabbed or the skeleton soldier is not killed, then the next attack on the skeleton soldier cannot be avoided and can only be injured. The second is to avoid the original attack after killing the skeleton soldier, which consumes more energy.

I don't know if it was because of mental exhaustion, Rhodes felt that his physical strength was also drained a lot.
