1402 Bones
Fang Heng made a rough judgment in his heart and left the low rooms. He began to walk towards the bone graveyard not far away.
The alchemy magic array seal was set up around the edge of the entire bone graveyard.
The seal was constantly emitting unknown fluctuations.
This fluctuation could affect the Bones and make them stay away, but it had no effect on humans.
The low-quality inferior energy crystals found in the warehouse should be used to charge the alchemy magic array.
Fang Heng crouched down and carefully observed the magic array for a moment. Then, he stood up and passed through the seal.
As soon as he stepped into the bone graveyard area, the Bones that were wandering in the graveyard immediately noticed Fang Heng’s aura. They dragged their feet and gathered toward Fang Heng.
Fang Heng intentionally wanted to test the strength of these Bones, so he took the initiative to approach a lone skeleton.
At first glance, the Bones looked like a normal skeletal creature and its movement pattern was also shaky and very slow. However, after getting close to Fang Heng, it suddenly accelerated and its body speed became ten times faster. It used the nether bone blade in its hand to attack Fang Heng, creating a sound of slashing through the air.
“Phew!!”
The sharp blade slashed past Fang Heng.
Fang Heng quickly took half a step back to dodge the attack. At the same time, he threw a punch forward.
Whoosh!
The Bones once again displayed a reaction ability that was several times greater than that of normal skeletal creatures. It dodged Fang Heng’s attack with extreme agility and swung the nether bone blade again. It reached out from another tricky angle and slashed heavily at Fang Heng’s body.
“Pfft!!”
The bone blade cut a wound on Fang Heng’s shoulder and then stuck firmly on Fang Heng’s body.
The Bones clearly did not expect this scene, and its body instantly stopped.
The game notification quickly appeared on Fang Heng’s retina.
[Hint: The player has received mixed damage from the Bones, -498, -79.]
[Hint: Due to the suppression of the player’s soul strength, the soul damage has been reduced, and the duration of soul-burning has been greatly reduced.]
Mixed damage!
In addition to physical damage, it also added the soul-burning damage of the necromancy attribute!
The former dealt close to 500 points of physical damage, while the latter dealt 79 points of soul-burning damage. The damage would be triggered every half a second for about a minute.
“Phew!!”
He threw a punch!
Bones was grabbed tightly by Fang Heng and could not avoid the attack. The punch landed squarely on its ribs.
“Bang!!!”
Bones’ ribs exploded under Fang Heng’s mighty punch!
Bones was sent flying and landed heavily on the ground with a loud thud.
At the same time, the bleeding parts of Fang Heng’s body that had been slashed by the nether bone blade quickly healed, and the soul-burning effect gradually disappeared.
Looking at the skeleton that was blown away, Fang Heng could not help but let out a soft gasp.
“Eh?”
This punch actually didn’t kill it?
Although he did not have many skills at the moment, his strength attribute was not low.
Normal skeletal creatures would shatter with a pinch.
Bones’ ribs had been smashed into pieces by the punch. However, after it landed on the ground, a white aura immediately enveloped it. Following that, the injured part of Bones’ chest quickly recovered under the infusion of the aura.
In the blink of an eye, Bones returned to its original state. It stood up shakily and slowly approached Fang Heng with the surrounding skeletons.
Its healing ability was outstanding!
What a troublesome undead creature!
It was at least three levels stronger than normal skeletal creatures!
Fang Heng thought to himself. Relying on the attributes of his current body to fight head-on did not seem easy.
“I will try this again.”
Fang Heng muttered softly. He clenched his fists and switched to his holy form again, taking out the Book of Oaths.
“Whoosh!”
A holy remnant chapter was instantly activated and flew straight toward the nearest Bones.
Bones immediately sensed the incoming danger and immediately raised the nether bone blade in front of it to block it.
“Boom!!”
With a heavy collision sound, the long blade that it had just raised instantly exploded under the bombardment of the holy remnant chapter!
The holy remnant chapter pierced through the long blade and instantly pierced through the skull of Bones.
Thump!
Bones fell on its back, and a white aura gradually seeped out from the skull and finally fused into the mark on the back of Fang Heng’s hand.
[Hint: The player has successfully killed Bones. Current intermediate necromancy advancement mission-Bones’ completion rate: 0.01%.]
Just like that?
The effect of the holy weapon was outstanding. He could easily kill them in seconds.
Fang Heng looked down at the mark on the back of his hand, then looked up at the large group of skeleton creatures wandering in the bone graveyard.
If he killed one, the completion rate was 0.01%. If he killed 10,000, he would be able to complete the mission.
Therefore, the difficulty of the mission to advance to the intermediate necromancy was not high. All he needed to do was to work hard, right?
Fang Heng pondered.
Bones’ resurrection ability was a problem, and it was not easy for normal players to deal with them.
The Book of Oaths was a holy weapon that could kill in one hit. However, the remaining energy in the Book of Oaths was clearly not enough to support him farming 10,000 Bones.
Fang Heng glanced at the resurrection time of the zombie clones. He had no choice but to rely on his zombie clones.
The ground beneath his feet was slowly churning, and thin hands reached out from the depths of the ground. An alchemy magic array appeared around Fang Heng.
The Lickers quickly dashed out of the magic array and charged into the group of Bones. In the blink of an eye, more than 300 Lickers had swarmed into the scattered Bones.
…
Not far from Catantul City on a black wasteland, a group of people from the Federation was heading toward the bone graveyard.
On the barren land, the team’s speed was very slow. They would stop from time to time to rest and wait for their teammates to communicate with the offline team. Therefore, the speed of their progress was very slow.
Apart from that, they also had to be constantly on guard against the appearance of the undead storm.
After resting for a while, Captain Zheng Yuping hurriedly went online.
The deputy leader quickly went forward and asked, “How is it? Captain, has there been any reply from the superiors?”
“Yes, I received a reply from the superiors two minutes ago. The relationship between our Eastern region and Fang Heng is very good. The superiors will provide us with comprehensive assistance. They are already helping us to contact Fang Heng.”
Zheng Yuping said as he swept his gaze across everyone. He continued, “The superiors have already given instructions for me to take full responsibility for this talent upgrade mission. We must complete the relevant missions.”
“Yes, sir!”
Zheng Yuping was a little excited. Their team had been here for more than a year, but they had not made much progress on the mission. He didn’t expect that he would be able to find a breakthrough from Fang Heng this time.
With the support of the superiors, this matter would be much easier to do.
Another soldier who had just come online reported to Zheng Yuping, “Captain, just as you guessed, Ryan Mercenary Group is in trouble. I just got some news offline. At the bone graveyard, the five players in charge of guarding Ryan Mercenary Group suddenly died. The people from Ryan Mercenary Group are all stunned and are asking around. It is said that they are already preparing to gather a team to investigate the bone graveyard.”
As expected, the Ryan Mercenary Group was very dirty. They often killed people and robbed them. They often walked by the river, and their shoes would get wet. Now that they had provoked Fang Heng, they were most likely in big trouble.
“Captain, the Ryan Mercenary Group is very likely to go over. If they meet Fang Heng, it might cause a bigger conflict.”
Kou Ming asked, “Should we hurry over and take a look?”
“Mm, speed up. We must find Fang Heng before the Ryan Mercenary Group arrives.”
