Chapter 7: First Class Undead "Skeleton Knight"
The moment the mist touched Yihua's body, a cold feeling that almost penetrated into the bone marrow came. Yihua couldn't help but shiver, and his body felt like it was in an ice cave.
Before Yihua could take action, the magic power in his body began to escape to the surroundings, forming a magic barrier that completely dispelled the coldness that enveloped him.
"There are only about six hours. I'm afraid the time will be shortened by using witchcraft, so we have to do it as soon as possible..."
Feeling the magic power gradually passing by, Yihua's expression became more solemn.
The essence of these gray mist is the power of death that is so dense that it atomizes. To non-undead creatures, it is tantamount to poison.
Without the magic barrier released by the death world shuttle technique to resist, the vitality in the body will soon be eroded by the power of death.
When it is actively activated or the magic power is exhausted, the Death World Shuttle Technique will transport Yihua back to the original world again.
Different from the imaginary world of death filled with undead souls all over the mountains and plains, at a glance, there is only deathly silence.
In the world of death, what contains the most is not the undead, but the mist of death that fills the entire world.
Based on his memory, Yi Hua confirmed that he was currently at the exact location where the original owner escaped last time.
Although there were no undead souls in sight, Yihua did not dare to let down his guard.
The fog has the ability to block perception. Maybe there are a large number of undead gathering in an open space a hundred meters away.
Yi Hua tightened the cross sword in his hand, took out an incendiary bomb with his left hand, stepped on the gray-white, somewhat soft soil under his feet, and slowly walked toward the depths of the fog while observing the movements around him.
Feeling the weight on his hands, Yihua felt a sense of security in his heart.
A quarter of an hour later, there was a faint "click-click" sound not far away, a strange sound like the collision of hard objects.
"What's the sound?"
Yi Hua, who was moving forward slowly, noticed something strange, stopped and started to stay on guard.
Not long after, the sound of "click-click" in the distance gradually became clear.
Three humanoid skeletons, about 1.8 meters tall, wearing broken armor and holding rotten swords, walked out of the mist.
The three of them were more than ten meters apart from each other, walking slowly and aimlessly not far from Yihua.
"Three first-class undead? It seems that they are still skeleton knights with higher physiques among the first-class undead. Fortunately, they are not unknown mutants."
Looking through the knowledge he had learned, Yihua could barely identify the undead in the distance based on their physical characteristics.
Skeleton knights are a relatively common category among low-level undead. They often have good speed and melee combat capabilities, but their bodies are relatively fragile.
Unlike mutants whose information is unknown, the Skeleton Knight is only physically stronger and does not have extremely dangerous special abilities.
But facing this situation, Yihua still felt nervous.
The original owner was once beaten to the point of running away by a skeleton knight, but now three of them appeared at once.
"It seems that this is a gathering place for low-level skeleton knights."
Except for a few mutant species, most low-level undead are like social creatures. Undead of the same type usually gather in large numbers in specific areas.
Yihua originally wanted to wait for the Skeleton Knight to leave, but he didn't expect that the Skeleton Knight suddenly stopped when he passed right in front of Yihua.
Seeing this situation, Yihua was so nervous that his heart was pounding, hoping that the skeleton knights would not discover him.
But the skeleton knights seemed to feel something, and the blue will-o'-the-wisps in their eyes swayed slightly.
The next moment, they all turned to look at Yihua, who was dozens of meters away.
"Oops!"
Before Yihua could react, a roar came from the empty skulls of the three skeleton knights, and then they rushed towards him at a sprint speed of 100 meters.
Judging by visual inspection, the Skeleton Knight might only need five or six seconds to rush in front of him.
Seeing that the battle was unavoidable, Yihua forced himself to remain calm and began to construct a second-class phototherapy technique.
After pouring the second-level light therapy into the cross sword, Yi Hua felt slightly reassured when he felt the life energy surging from the sword.
He believed that, combined with his knight-level slashing power and relying on attribute restraint, even the harmless second-class light therapy could cause considerable damage to the first-class undead.
Without wasting any time, Yihua quickly took off the incendiary bomb hanging from his waist and threw it towards the skeleton knight rushing at the front.
Due to his average accuracy, the incendiary bomb was thrown a few meters in front of the Skeleton Knight, but the rising blue flame still swallowed it up.
Before Yihua could relax, the skeleton knight, swallowed by the blue, rushed out again.
Although a lot of ribs were knocked off, the originally broken armor became even more broken, and there were still flames burning on his body, it didn't seem to be a serious problem.
The undead feel no pain and can still attack even if only one head is left.
If you want to enslave the undead, you must first remove their mobility.
Without time to dwell on it, Yihua hurriedly pulled out a second incendiary bomb and threw it towards the skeleton knight who had been hit by the incendiary bomb.
Perhaps due to the blessing of the goddess of luck, the second incendiary bomb happened to hit the skeleton knight's leg bone. The explosion of flames directly broke the leg bone of his left leg, causing him to lose the ability to move.
However, Yihua had no time at this time. The second skeleton knight had already rushed in front of Yihua, waving the rotten giant sword in his hand and slashing towards Yihua.
Yihua, who was about to cast light therapy again, saw this and immediately interrupted the spell. He picked up the magic-guided cross sword with second-class light therapy in both hands and faced him.
Bang!
The Skeleton Knight's huge force that was inconsistent with its appearance was transmitted to the sword, making Yihua's arm numb, and the cross sword almost flew away.
No head-on confrontation!
Barely resisting the Skeleton Knight's attack, the Demonic Cross Sword with second-level light therapy emitted a dazzling golden light, burning the Skeleton Knight's body with bursts of gray energy.
Yihua, who was trying to fight back, felt a coldness hit his lower abdomen. Yihua, who was cautious, immediately gave up the attack and rolled to dodge.
The third skeleton knight that followed followed with a slash, cutting a crack more than one meter deep where Yihua was originally located.
Seeing the destructive power of the Skeleton Knight, Yihua broke into a cold sweat. If he hadn't dodged in time, he might not have been able to get any advantage even if he was wearing enchanted half-plate armor.
With no time to think between life and death, Yihua stood up quickly and put on a defensive posture.
The next moment, the second skeleton knight rushed towards him again, and the giant sword in his hand suddenly stabbed Yihua.
Yi Hua barely blocked the thrust of the second Skeleton Knight, but before he could counterattack, the third Skeleton Knight had already rushed in front of him.
Today, Yihua is facing a wheel battle between two skeleton knights, and can never find a chance to counterattack. Faced with undead of the same level, he is in a dilemma.
He couldn't run and outrun, and he was no match for melee combat. Although his witchcraft could kill the opponent, he had no chance to use it.
No wonder first-class apprentices are often no match for formal knights in real battles.
There is a huge difference between the combat effectiveness of the wizard's apprentice in melee combat and the remote release of witchcraft.
First-class witchcraft can only be regarded as a trick, and in actual combat it can only be regarded as tickling for a fully armed formal knight.
As for second-rate witchcraft.
Even if Yihua's life affinity is only 9%, the second-level light therapy technique can still cause significant damage to the Skeleton Knight.
It's a pity that Yihua is too busy parrying and can't find time to perform witchcraft.
