Chapter 7 Falling apart(1/2)
"Be careful of the undead under your feet!!!"
Because of Si Ye's rule, the sight was extremely dark, and the thick dead air made living people accustomed to fresh air feel suffocated, and the soft and sticky soil dragged them like a swamp.
Dozens of hideous and terrifying undead emerged from the ground, and corpse claws as sharp and powerful as iron hooks sprung up like bamboo shoots after a rain, waving towards the calves of Xu Huang and others.
"Keep your distance, don't be surrounded!"
Xu Huang wielded the thunderous spider cutter, and the tachi attached to the thunderbolt swung at high speed in mid-air to create an arc of electricity.
"Hiss!!!!"
Several rotting, ugly undead were unable to dodge, and their gray-white skinny arms were cut off by sharp blades. They knew no pain, and only their fanatical desire to eat prompted them to roar and pounce on the living flesh.
"Rough Waves - Rough Waves!!!"
There were 49 azure water stars connected to Wu Bin's palm, and the turbulent waves rushed directly towards the undead that poked their heads out of the black soil. They were caught off guard, and some of the undead that had not yet stood firm were directly washed away.
"Ice Lock-Frozen!!!"
Wei Nan is a mage who majors in the ice system. While she was shooting, the bullets penetrated the undead that crawled out of the nearby soil and approached her. At the same time, she connected with the ice system stars. The astonishing cold air directly froze the waves, and seven or eight undead became
Ice sculpture.
"Wei Nan, stay in the central area, we are responsible for cleaning up the undead around you, please watch our steps!!"
Xu Huang used the Divine Walk and killed the struggling slave-level undead around Wei Nan in a few breaths. The soul crystal was directly shattered and he died completely.
"A bunch of slave-level trash are worthy of trying to stop me. Anyone who stands in my way will die!!!"
Lai Yuan dismissed these clumsy and ignorant undead. There was a magnificent fire spirit seed floating in his right arm. The fire stars quickly connected, and nine pillars of fire rose into the sky.
Those undead that were unfortunate enough to be within the attack range of Fierce Fist-Nine Palaces were burned directly by the blazing crimson flames, wailing and turned into charcoal, with some firefly-like remnants floating around.
"It's completely vulnerable. There is no challenge at all at this level!!"
Lai Yuan laughed arrogantly, and the purple thunder star map appeared in his hand. Thunderbolt-Yaksha came out of his hand, and the huge thunder and lightning Yaksha directly stabbed Jinyang dozens of meters away.
"Regardless of whether you leave the team and fight alone, should I say that you are confident, or that you are arrogant..."
Jin Yang did not dodge or dodge, a burly body stood directly in front of him, the sharp bone knife directly chopped at Thunder Yaksha, the violent thunder and lightning was directly cut in half, and the original domineering momentum suddenly weakened.
"Bone-spurred Ghost General, there are warrior-level undead. Clear out the slave-level undead first. There will be a hard battle!"
The skeleton holding the white bone sword was wearing heavy armor, and green vine-like lines stretched out to offset the arcs that fell on it.
"This bone-thorned ghost general is actually wearing armor and magic equipment!!"
Seeing the skeleton ghost general's armor exuding wood-type magic energy, Wu Bin screamed in shock, his voice hoarse and harsh.
Not only is the armor on its body, but also the walking equipment on its feet, the shield on its left arm, and even the bone knife in its hand, which is a magic-slaying tool made of alien bones...
The Bone Spur Ghosts will be fully armed, and most of the warrior-level undead in the Kingdom of the Undead are bare-handed.
Even if there are weapons, most of them are magic tools used in life. They have lost their magic power due to natural decomposition for hundreds of years. They are just hard scrap iron and are worthless to humans with low physical fitness.
However, Jin Yang has obviously upgraded his precious warrior-level undead to a higher level. The undead are inherently powerful and tireless, and if carefully armed, they can become terrifying killing machines.
"So fast!!!!"
The bone spur ghost general is as fast as lightning. The speed of its sword swing cannot be caught by the naked eye. The moment it splits Lai Yuan's thunderbolt-Yaksha, it jumps up directly, and several sharp air blades directly bombard Lai Yuan.
On Yuan's armor and magic equipment.
"Don't think you can compete with me just by wearing a few tattered magic tools. I have killed many warrior-level demons!!"
Lai Yuan was a tall man. He pulled out the demon-slaying tool from his waist and wrestled with the Bone Spur Demon General. The terrifying force transmitted from the bone knife made him tremble and his body was forced back several meters!
"Closing the formation, Lu Hong used soil magic to strengthen the soil under his feet. Wu Bin protected Wei Nan, so he didn't have to leave the team to fight alone. There are still two corpses that haven't shown up yet!!"
Xu Huang and the green-armored Xilong Xu Qing rushed to the front line, resisting the iron hooks and claws protruding from the soil.
Thunder and strong winds intertwined, and the blue-armored dragon's tail was waving as hard as black iron, forcing the undead to be unable to break through.
"careful!!!!!"
A skinny palm wrapped in old bandages suddenly appeared from the sole of Wei Nan's foot. Those bandages were flying towards Wei Nan. Although Wu Bin was panicked, he still calmed his mind and connected to the star map of the summoning system.
"Ouch!!!!"
A crack appeared in the space, and a giant slave-level rock giant covered in a hard rock shell rushed out and stood in front of Wei Nan.
As soon as the old bandage touched the rock giant's body, it wrapped tightly around it as if it were alive.
The rock giant, which originally had a good defense, had its hard shell crushed directly by the terrifying pressure of the restraint. White blood was squeezed out of the muscles inside the shell, and blood splattered all over the burly body.
"The White Cloth Corpse General has appeared!!!"
The burly corpse general crawled out of the black soil and looked down upon the dying rock giant.
It shook the old bandages on its body, and the rock giant fell directly into several hungry and thirsty undead, and was greedily eaten away.
"These guys are completely different from the stragglers before!!"
The white cloth corpse general holds a silver-gray spear in his hand, and wears lightweight silver armor magic equipment. The parts not covered by the magic equipment are exposed to an old and yellow shroud, but as strong and flexible as a python.
It held its spear high and let out a hoarse roar, while more than twenty armed undead crawled out of the soil around it.
Different from the previous undead that hunted with bare hands and only relied on instinctive reactions, these slave-level undead are stronger. Although the armor on their bodies is not magic armor, it is also made of fine iron, which can offset part of the power of magic.
They hold sharp swords in their right hands with brand-new blades, and their left arms are equipped with hard iron shields. Unlike the previous undead, they seem to be waiting for the White Cloth Corpse General to give orders, and they are well-trained troops.
The White Cloth Corpse General is a genuine warrior-level warrior. Unlike those slave-level undead who only have instincts left, it already has a certain amount of wisdom and a residual fighting consciousness from its lifetime. It knows how to weigh the pros and cons.
"Ho ho ho ho!!!!"
The Baibu Corpse divided its troops into two groups. It led half of its troops to charge towards Wu Bin and Wei Nan. It prioritized getting rid of the healing elements that lacked combat effectiveness, so that the difficulty of conquering them would be reduced.
Lu Hong and Wei Nan were not far apart, but he only strengthened the soil around him, but failed to contain the land around Wei Nan and the others in time.
The undead that could not pass through the hard ground immediately rushed toward the areas that were relatively easy to attack and were led by the white cloth corpse generals. Lu Hong only dealt with the slave-level undead.
Without Wu Bin and Wei Nan facing the huge pressure from the White Cloth Corpse General, he only needs to use the earth element to create obstacles to contain the undead with low IQ, and he consumes the least amount of magic energy.
Wei Nan and Wu Bin were locked in a bitter battle, and their strength was slowly being worn away by the White Cloth Corpse General and his corpse soldiers. Xu Huang was anxious, but he was unable to do anything at all.
"Ho ho ho ho!!!!"
A corpse demon that was more than three meters tall, with a fat body and a heavy, rusty ax on its shoulders stood in front of him and Xu Qing, the blue-armored Xilong, like a mountain of meat.
According to the intelligence, there is an ax-blade corpse demon at the level of a general in Jinyang. It should be this monster!
The Ax-Blade Corpse Demon's knee joints and elbow joints are covered with magic tools to protect the most vulnerable parts of its body. Every step it takes will deeply dent the ground beneath its feet.
"Ho ho ho!!!!"
The ax-blade zombie demon wields a heavy axe, and the violent air blade carries bursts of strong wind. Obscure runes appear on the back of the blue-armored dragon. It resists the blow of the war general-level zombie demon. It has always dominated in terms of strength.
The excellent Xu Qing was actually pushed back a bit.
"Qing, don't act recklessly. The corpse poison on the Ax Blade Corpse Demon is not simple. Contain it while ensuring safety. I will support you immediately!"
Xu Huang looked at the undead sharpening their swords around him. If the information Wei Nan received was accurate, then all the combat power that Jin Yang could control should have appeared.
Xu Huang waved the Spider Cut, and the wind track under his feet continued to rotate. The corpse soldiers wearing armor had amazing defense, but their flexibility was also reduced.
He shuttled between a dozen undead, and the sharp blades scratched through their unprotected bones, leaving deep cuts.
"Are the bones of these undead corpse soldiers comparable to rocks? Their hardness far exceeds the bone hardness of slave-level monsters!"
If they were ordinary slave-level demons, Xu Huang could directly cut off their leg bones with one strike. To cut off the exposed bones of a corpse soldier, he would need 2-3 cuts.
Generally, after 2 to 3 years of a corpse buried in the soil, the soft tissue turns into a grayish color, resembling a mud-like substance, and the skeletalization process is almost completed.
The soil is dry, and sometimes it takes 7 to 8 years to turn into white bones. It takes about 10 years for the bones to be defatted and dry. It will take 300 years for the bones to become very light and brittle, and it will even take 1,000 years for them to weather.
The time required for these processes to occur depends on temperature, soil properties, depth of burial, thickness of the coffin, body fatness, burial conditions, etc.
In the wilderness, this process should occur much earlier than in the tomb, but these undead souls who have been dead for decades or even hundreds of years do not comply with this theorem.
As the dead energy is irrigated over the years, the undead buried in the rotting soil may be decomposed, or their flesh and blood tissue can be eaten away by other undead, but their bones can be preserved and complete the transformation into white bones.
During the process of skeletalization, not only do their bones not become weathered and brittle, but they become invulnerable due to the energy of death, becoming an indestructible body.
If the soul crystals of the undead corpse soldiers cannot be destroyed, no matter how their limbs are cut off, they can be reassembled with the remains of other undead and continue to fight without knowing the pain!
“Create a quarantine zone!!!”
Wu Bin used the intermediate water magic - Waterfall Wave. The undead corpse soldiers that were close to him and Wei Nan were scattered by the flood. He controlled the turbid waterfall wave to spin into a water circle with a diameter of ten meters.
Wei Nan used Ice Lock, and the sharp cold air quickly froze Wu Bin's water circle, forming an ice plate with a diameter of ten meters. The corpse soldiers whose legs were trapped in it were unable to move for a while.
"Beware of the White Cloth Corpse General, he wants to wear down our physical strength!"
Wei Nan stood in the center, protected by Wu Bin and the three slave-level summoned beasts he had summoned. She held the handle of the gun in her right hand and poured firepower towards the corpse soldiers who could not move.
Under the cover of Wu Bin and his summoned beasts, Wei Nan gave up the limited-power pistol in his hand and switched to a special sniper loaded with armor-piercing bullets. Each armor-piercing bullet could directly penetrate the skull of the undead corpse soldier.
The armor-piercing projectile consists of a projectile body, an explosive with a hollow recess, a metal charge cover and a detonating device.
The head of the projectile is equipped with a prompt-fire piezoelectric fuse. The outstanding feature of the armor-piercing projectile is that it uses relatively less explosives and a lighter warhead to achieve a greater penetration depth.
The basic component of the armor-piercing warhead is the hollow charge warhead. The purpose of this design structure is to produce a narrow airflow containing metal particles, that is, a metal flow.
The explosion penetrates the armor and produces armor fragments that scatter like trumpet beech inside the armor. Usually, the explosion must be timely at the optimal explosion height to form a powerful metal jet.
